The Resilience of the Romanian Penitentiary System in the Context of the COVID-19 Pandemic

Year: 2024
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: This article analyses, from an interdisciplinary approach perspective, the challenges faced by the Romanian penitentiary system, as a representative institution of the national security system, in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, the solutions identified to protect the population segment for which it is directly responsible, and how it managed to empower central structures and subordinate units in this regard. The analysis aims to highlight the institutional adaptability of the Romanian penitentiary system in the face of certain dynamic elements (escalation of the situation regarding the spread of the virus, gradual recommendations from European and global health organisations), as well as considering certain internal and international legal benchmarks. Furthermore, the analysis highlighted in this article aims to correlate the institutional adaptability of the Romanian penitentiary system with the concept of resilience, considering its multidisciplinarity.
