This paper aims to provide an analytical framework for detention monitoring bodies, including National Preventive Mechanisms, to support them to: understand the concepts of dignity and security in prisons and the relationship between them identify situations where there is a particular risk that security is overemphasised to the detriment of the dignity of prisoners. These include: over-classification of prisoners, body searches, instruments of restraint, solitary confinement, and staff-prisoner relations. |
