Resumen
This book is a result of collaboration between the Faculty of Architecture at
Sapienza University in Rome and the Research department at the University
College of Norwegian Correctional Service, KRUS, in Oslo. The collaboration
goes back to 2001, when one of the editors had a university scholarship at
La Sapienza.1
Over the past few years this collaboration has been further
developed and has involved field visits both in Italy and Norway, seminars, the
establishment of the PriArcH network and this book.
Ferdinando Terranova, former professor at the Faculty of Architecture at La
Sapienza University in Rome, has played a key role in the network. He has
always insisted that collaboration between our countries is of great importance
regarding prison architecture, as well as being important in terms of sharing
and discussing various analytical and methodological possibilities within
architecture and penology
