| Summary: | Daily experienced places, times and activities shape the way of perception, perception of yourself and how you relate to social environmental attitudes. In total institutions we can live in temporal and spatial fixity (at least apparently). The experience can change depending on how you deal with them. In Barcellona Pozzo di Gotto’s Criminal Asylum, people lived as a community where commitment, determination and work were the essential tools used in order to rehabilitate criminals, insufficient minds, and “social waste” that lived only in that place. For the first time, they had a self-determination experience, through work. An immersion in the Madia family activity grandeur: undisputed exemplary institute leader for the first half of the XX century.
