This paper will develop what is understood by the right to education and how it is specifically regulated in the contexts of confinement, taking into account how the educational stimulus regulated in article 140 of Law 24.660 operates and its importance in the process of social reintegration of inmates. A comparison will be made between what is sanctioned by the National Education Law and the international human rights instruments with constitutional hierarchy that support this right and what actually happens in the penitentiary system. Likewise, an analysis will be made of Argentine jurisprudence that recognizes the right to education of persons deprived of liberty and its importance for the system of progressiveness regulated by the law of penal execution. On the other hand, an analysis will be made of how, in practice, the reduction regulated by article 140 has lost its virtuality due to the introduction of a group of offenses that are not eligible for the liberatory institutes through Law 27.375. The main objective lies in the need to emphasize that education in prison contexts is essential for social reintegration and that the State has the obligation to guarantee this right.

The paper focuses on the place of education for youth and adults and education in contexts of deprivation of liberty in the National Educational Law, in the orientation that this conception gave to the National Ministry of Education policies and in that what enabled for jurisdictions, especially in Córdoba. It results of the doctoral thesis “Adult secondary education in the present. A comparative study between Córdoba (Argentina) and Catalonia (Spain)”and the research Production of meaning and subjectivity in the prison space: access to rights and justice”. Based on the analysis of the regulations and the national and provincial policies that it inspired, it is argued that education as a public good and social right represented a substantial turn in the policies for permanent youth and adult education and in confinement contexts modalities, notwithstanding the insufficient aspects of some actions and the various obstacles to access to education that still persist. It ends with questions about the course of this law within the framework of a socio-political, economic and cultural context very different from the one that favored its emergence and the clues that the current educational policy offers.
