Abstract

Prisoners are a part of society in the new-normal life. The rules in the new normal are changing all the time, including in prisons. One of the regulations during the new-normal life is their family could not visit prisoners. According to Plt. Dirjen Pas Decision Number: PAS-08.OT.02.02. 2020, this is related to the prevention of the Covid-19 spread in prisons. This can be a problem for the mental health of prisoners. Prisoners can feel lonely. Loneliness is a condition when a person feels alone, unloved, and feels unimportant. These conditions produce “Loneliness.” Prisoners with high loneliness reported higher levels of depression, hopelessness, and suicidal tendencies. Through the literature review, this article tries to discuss how loneliness is in the prisoners in the new-normal life, observed from many aspects. The results of this article are a description of the prisoner’s loneliness viewed from many aspects such as age, marriage, and relationship with children, and length of prison term in the new-normal life.
