The book discusses the issue of juvenile delinquency and the physical spaces where young offenders are confined, adopting a multidisciplinary lens that weaves together pedagogy, architecture, law, sociology, and art. It offers a snapshot of the current debate, highlighting proposals and normative contradictions within a constantly evolving reality, and it provides a critical analysis of existing models, putting forward innovative perspectives. A mosaic of knowledge and testimonies, the book calls for a paradigm shift and reaffirms an essential truth: architecture can (and must) serve as a pedagogical tool, a means of resocialization, and a symbol of hope. The book aims to break the silence surrounding a frequently overlooked reality, encouraging reflection, the development of new strategies, and tangible investments for the future of confined young offenders.
