Summary/Abstract: The state fails to favor statistics to the detriment of man. The reconstruction of the judiciary system, and implicitly of the penitentiary environment, must have man at the forefront. The state is constituted to be useful to its citizens, and not vice versa. For this reason, every conviction to the European Court of Human Rights on grounds of inhuman and degrading treatment is a state’s failure. The problem is not limited to the actual accommodation, but social reintegration needs to be considered. Unfortunately, urgency sometimes leads to temporary solutions that can eclipse the long-term solutions that are already taken under consideration.
