To cope with the influx of prisoners, a new generation of penitentiaries has emerged. Objective: monitor as many prisoners as possible with a minimum of personnel. Entirely glazed cells, filmed 24 hours a day: the prisoners are almost never in contact with their guards and no longer have any privacy. Even the visiting rooms with the families are done by interposed videos. Are these methods effective, especially against gang members who make up 60% of the prison population?
