MUSULMANI IN CARCERE UN’ESPERIENZA EDUCATIVA IN DIALOGO CON LA CULTURA ARABO/ISLAMICA

The article describes an educational experience, unique of its kind, amongst the Muslim inmates of a large Italian prison. Its approach was multicultural, as it aimed to establish a dialogue with the inmates involved starting from their religious, cultural and national traditions. The point of arrival was the production of a “Prisoners’ Constitution”, a charter of rights and duties that they proposed as a foundation for peaceful coexistence in a Western type of multi-ethnic and multicultural society. The problem of the religious radicalization of the inmates makes the project highly topical. Documented by a film and a book, it is aimed for major development in Europe.
