ZARTA ROJAS, Fabián Andrey. The Modelo Prison Penitentiary Site in Bogotá: A Review from a Communications Approach. []. , 31, 2, pp.308-332.   14--2023. ISSN 0121-3261.  https://doi.org/10.14482/indes.31.02.155.001.

This article is derived from the master's thesis entitled "Penitentiary Sites in Bogotá: A Study on the Modelo Prison", and it is oriented to review how communication is developed within this penitentiary site from certain daily practices. It works with the schizomethod, which allows for the integration of complex perspectives within the context and theories that surround the problem. Three axes of approach are proposed: (a) The communicative context in the Bogota Modelo Prison; (b) The penitentiary site; (c) Body and resistance in prison. From a rhizomatic perspective, it is not intended to exhaust the analytical horizon, but to present some reflections on the communicative within the penitentiary site, concluding, among other things, that communicative actions support a sociological structure where prisoners deploy communicative and bodily strategies to face the penitentiary site.
