“…This conceptual transformation could lead to correctional facilities and the public good being discussed together. Therefore, correctional facilities should be understood as public facilities designed for the benefit of the community and that protect the local community by ensuring the safety and security of residents (Park and Baek, 2018; Park, 2020).…”

“…Currently, it is necessary to review the factors that would require correctional facilities to use publicity as a way to transform the negative image of LULUs in design processes for the construction of domestic correctional facilities. To this end, the study compares each stage of the construction processes for correctional facilities and public buildings in South Korea (Park and Baek, 2018). The design processes for correctional facilities are dictated by the Ministry of Justice's Facility Standards Rules and public building falls under the Standards for Architectural Design in Public Building, to which we referred to ascertain the differences between the general construction processes of correctional facilities and public buildings in South Korea (see Table 1).…”

PurposeCorrectional facilities often constitute locally unwanted land use (LULUs), with local residents strongly demanding their relocation. Accordingly, the construction of correctional facilities is currently being promoted in regions that are far from city centres. Some local government officials consider relocating correctional facilities to rural areas as a golden opportunity to revitalise the economies of these areas. This paper focuses on the possibilities of local community participation in the sustainable development of prison siting in rural areas.Design/methodology/approachThe methods and procedure of this study are as follows: (1) to review the relevant literature about regulations or cohesion policies when correctional facilities are constructed, (2) to examine the current issues relating to the conflict between correctional facilities and the local community from the perspective of LULUs and (3) to compare the construction processes of correctional facilities and public buildings in South Korea. The latter focuses on Daegu Correctional Facility as a site study through which to investigate how the facility interacted with the local community when the government decided to locate the correctional facility in a rural area.FindingsThe case study confirmed that communication methods between correctional facilities and stakeholders at each stage affected the occurrence and resolution of conflicts between them. In particular, it was found that correctional facilities in rural areas can transform the characteristics of the community by providing an open facility that serves community needs and boosts the local economy.Originality/valueThis study contributes to a new vision for locating correctional facilities, wherein conflicts are resolved through communication with local communities in rural regions. In addition, the study argues that community participation could allow correctional facilities to function as living hubs in the community and so benefit the residents of rural areas.
