| description | The contribution focuses, with reference to Italy, on the interplay between professional cultures in the field of the prison and tries to describe how the normative characteristics, typical of the professional cultures of teachers and health professionals, meet the total institution. The introduction presents the different sources from which the empirical material comes, collected by the authors in the course of different research and monitoring activities, which allowed them to access to the prison field. The second paragraph introduces the reader to the complexity of the Italian prison system, which has undergone a profound differentiation in recent years. The third paragraph analyzes, on the basis of the qualitative data collected, the encounter between the professional cultures of teachers and doctors and the specific prison culture. The conclusion enlightens the irreducible polymorphism that characterizes the institution and unavoidably interferes with a sociologist's efforts at generalization.
La contribución se centra, con referencia a Italia, en la interacción entre las culturas profesionales en el ámbito de la prisión y trata de describir cómo las características normativas, típicas de las culturas profesionales de los profesores y los profesionales de la salud, se encuentran con la institución total. La introducción presenta las diferentes fuentes de las que procede el material empírico, recogido por los autores en el curso de diferentes actividades de investigación y seguimiento, que les permitieron acceder al ámbito penitenciario. El segundo apartado introduce al lector en la complejidad del sistema penitenciario italiano, que ha sufrido una profunda diferenciación en los últimos años. El tercer apartado analiza, a partir de los datos cualitativos recogidos, el encuentro entre las culturas profesionales de profesores y médicos y la cultura penitenciaria específica. La conclusión pone de manifiesto el polimorfismo irreductible que caracteriza a la institución y que interfiere inevitablemente en los esfuerzos de generalización de un sociólogo.
