| Sumario: | Towards the end of 2015 I began ethnographic fieldwork at the secondary school of a social and educational closed-regime center, an institution located in the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires housing young people detained due to criminal law offenses or alleged offenses. The article describes the young people’s social practices and representations based on their experience at school. Daily routine at the center’s school cannot be analyzed without taking into account the wider social context in which everyday practices fit into and attain deep meaning. I discuss recent legal shifts and the different public policies developed to encompass their implementation, and examine the extent to which such policies represent major improvements in promoting the right to education in prison settings. |
