Antonin Margier and Anaïs Henneguelle: "Greening is Passive Security." Local Appropriations and Challenges of Greening in a French Detention Center




Based on a qualitative field study in a French detention center, this article explores the logics behind the greening of prisons. It highlights the discrepancy between greening as defined at the national level (which primarily involves reducing fluid consumption) and how prison staff in the studied facility appropriate it (by integrating it into a perspective of security and the calming of detention). It underscores the contradictions between environmental ambitions and security concerns, and the challenge of incorporating these goals in the same way as other public institutions. This perspective allows for a consideration of prison greening beyond the duality often presented in scientific literature, either as a factor of inmate well-being or as a symbol of austerity and disciplinary logic.

This forty-fifth episode features an interview with Antonin Margier and Anaïs Henneguelle.
