This entrance implies a deep change in the behavior of the intern, which creates a distinctive identity: that of the inmate. The inmate adjusts to a system characterized by the deprivation of freedom and the strong influence on one's identity. It is a break with the social reality and therefore, the former inmate will need the intervention of several professionals at the time of his or her release for their social reintegration. In this paper, we defend the importance of re-socialization spaces that exist between prison and society from the personal experience of former inmates at a Foster Home in Antequera. Once he or she has left the correctional facility the re-socialization spaces must provide the person the tools to develop his or her potential in order to it is achieved while acquiring social habits and practices which are essential for life outside prison. Co-existing with former inmates in the spaces which mediate between the correctional facility and the social environment, the main deficiencies of the individuals are found and set the basis for the intervention towards their favorable social integration.}, publisher = {Elsevier}, keywords = {Correctional institution}, keywords = {Former Inmates}, keywords = {Social reintegration}, keywords = {Re-socialization spaces}, keywords = {Social intervention}, title = {Identity of the inmate and new spaces of re-socialization after leaving the correctional institution}, doi = {10.1016/j.sbspro.2014.04.321}, author = {García Jiménez, Enrique and Lorente García, Rocío}, }
