I think you need to elaborate that. What does ISO-8859-1 has to do with a Python datatype in this context: which datatype, and what algorithm on it are you specifically referring to? When I do (in 2.x) py> "foo".decode("iso-8859-1") u'foo' ISTM that 8859-1 is all about decoding, so I don't understand why you say it is a way not to decode.
