Summary/Abstract: The penitentiary interventions aimed at fostering positive inmate activity towards their internal transformation (readaptation) and subsequent acceptance by the external— liberating environment (social reintegration) must take place in an appropriate educational setting. This setting should ensure an atmosphere conducive not only to isolation and disci- plinary goals but, above all, to educational and resocialization objectives. Dynamic security represents a unique philosophy for constructing security in prisons, grounded in subjective relationships between staff and inmates, actively preventing threats before they become dan- gerous and escalate. The article addresses the issues related to the possibilities and organ- izational and mental constraints influencing the implementation of dynamic security as a practice for shaping the proper educational atmosphere while maintaining safety conditions in penitentiary units.
