[Treatment and modification of attitudes].
The starting point of this work is the first article of the new penitentiary regulations. The aim of the re-education treatment of prisoners is explained here. This aim means to promote a process of modification of the attitudes which prevent a man from living a social life. Starting from the analysis of the concept of attitude which is made up of different elements implying affection, knowledge and behaviour we want to find out if it's possible to change the attitudes, on what conditions this may be realized, which obstacles prevent the change of these attitudes. A man can accept to be influenced when the behaviour he is led to, corresponds to his beliefs. This way a steady change will be acted even outside jail. At last you'll read about a discussion concerning the moral implications which affect people working in a penitentiary.
