Abstract

The article explores the connection between criminal law and prison architecture in order to demonstrate how the use of a certain type of architecture responds to the will to develop government techniques capable of operating at a level of governmental invisibility. To this end, it resorts to a novel by Bioy Casares, A Plan for Escape, which reveals and reflects upon the discipline of the body that hides behind the illusory beauty and health standards of modern prison architecture.
