Filipino cause in 1900. In 1907 the island was designated the Pacific Branch of the United
States Military Prison, and the modern prison building was completed four years later. In 1933 the
U.S. Army transferred control of the prison to the civilian Department of Justice, and, from 1934 to
1963, Alcatraz served as a federal prison for some of the most dangerous convicts in the American
penitentiary system. Among its famous denizens were Al Capone, George (“Machine Gun”) Kelly,
and Robert Stroud, the “Birdman of Alcatraz.”
Sachsenhausen Prison
Built in 1939 outside the Berlin proper as Germany’s concentration camps for the dreaded Nazi’s SS
elite force. Its notoriety became famous when it was transformed into gas chambers wherein
conservative estimates more than hundred thousands of people died mostly of Jew’s descent.
Auschwitz Prison
Auschwitz, Polish Oświęcim, also called Auschwitz-
Birkenau, Nazi Germany’s largest concentration camp and extermination camp. Located near the
industrial town of Oświęcim in southern Poland (in a portion of the country that was annexed by
Germany at the beginning of World War II), Auschwitz was actually three camps in one: a prison
camp, an extermination camp, and a slave-labour camp. As the most lethal of the Nazi extermination
camps, Auschwitz has become the emblematic site of the “final solution,” a virtual synonym for
the Holocaust. Between 1.1 and 1.5 million people died at Auschwitz; 90 percent of them were Jews.
Also among the dead were some 19,000 Roma who were held at the camp until the Nazis gassed
them on July 31, 1944—the only other victim group gassed in family units alongside the Jews. The
Poles constituted the second largest victim group at Auschwitz, where some 83,000 were killed or
died.
Toul Sleng Prison
One of the most notorious prison in Cambodia that even humbled the killing field in Battambang
Province. It looks like a mountain sized file of human bones. A grim reminder of dreaded reign of
Potpot.
Insein Prison
is situated in Ragoon Burma, now Myanmar. It is a pygmy size compared with other prison, but it
became the focus of world attention when political descents where placed behind the bar.
6. DEVELOPMENT OF PRISONS
The Walnut Street Jail
Originally constructed as a detention jail in Philadelphia. It was converted into a state prison and
became the first American Penitentiary.
The Auburn System
It is a penal method of the 19th century in which persons worked during the day and were kept in
solitary confinement at night, with enforced silence at all times. The silent system evolved during the
1820s at Auburn Prison in Auburn, N.Y., as an alternative to and modification of the Pennsylvania
system of solitary confinement, which it gradually replaced in the United States. Later innovations at
Auburn were the lockstep (marching in single file, placing the right hand on the shoulder of the man

ahead, and facing toward the guard), the striped suit, two-foot extensions of the walls between cells,
and special seating arrangements at meals all designed to insure strict silence. The Auburn and
Pennsylvania systems were both based on a belief that criminal habits were learned from and
reinforced by other criminals.
The Pennsylvania System
A penal method based on the principle that solitary confinement fosters penitence and encourages
reformation. Prisoners were kept in solitary confinement in cells. An exercise yard, completely
enclosed to prevent contact among prisoners, was attached to each cell. Prisoners saw no one except
institution officers and an occasional visitor. Solitary penitence, however, was soon modified to
include the performance of work such as shoemaking or weaving. The Pennsylvania system spread
until it predominated in European prisons. Critics in the United States argued that it was too costly and
had deleterious effects on the minds of the prisoners. The Pennsylvania system was superseded in
the United States by the Auburn system.
7. THE SCHOOL OF PENOLOGY
Classical School
This was advocated by Dr. Cesare Bacarria who maintained the Doctrine of psychological hedonism;
that an individual calculates pleasure and pain in concordance to his actions and regulations. His
conduct is the result of his calculations. It means that a person who commits a crime knows already
what the possible consequence. The doctrine of school is the Doctrine of Free Will.
Positive School
It was advocated by Dr. Cesare Lombroso known as the father of Modern Criminology. It opposed the
doctrine of free will. He believes that an Individual who commits a crime should not be punished
according to crime but the imposition of said penalty should be meted out in to the soundness of the
mind of the offender at the time that the offense was committed.
Neo-Classical School
This approach to penology arose the time French Revolution and the period immediately thereafter. It
argues that since children and lunatic person cannot calculate pleasure and pain they should not be
regarded as criminals and such they should not be punished. The reaction to crime under this school
is no longer punitive, punishment imposed on lawbreakers but not on others. By implication on
individual responsibility is taken into account.

RULE III
One of the Guiding Principles of the United Nations Standard Minimum Rules for the
Treatment of Prisoners states that “Imprisonment and other measures which result in cutting
off an offender from the outside world are afflictive by the very fact of taking from a person the
right of self-determination by depriving him/her of his/her liberty. Therefore, the prison system
shall not, except as incidental to justifiable segregation or the maintenance of discipline,
aggravate the suffering inherent in such a situation”. Hence, a well-planned and organized
reception of detainees is critical to achieving this. The inmate’s first impression of the
