The mutiny of prisoners in the jail of Rebeuss on 29 November 1996, sheds light on the crisis of the Senegalese penitentiary System. The mutiny revealed the dilapidated state of prisons and the difficult living conditions of prisoners, hardly improved by the limited social policy of the Senegalese government. The rebellion gives ample opportunity to analyze the discourse of diverse actors engagea in the debates about prisons (public and private press, human rights associations, international NGOs, managers of the penitentiary administration). It also illuminates the multiplicity of approaches proposed to find solutions to the crisis. Some progress is already palpable, however, with the graduai transformation of the rights of the detainees, and with the new interest that is developing within Senegalese public opinion over these issues
