A (in)eficiência do sistema prisional: a iniciativa privada como alternativa

Abstract

The prison system, in Brazil and in the world, has historically gone through crises and difficulties that end up culminating in debates about formats that can represent a better horizon for the way the State deals with its prisoners. The present work aims to understand the current scenario of the system Brazilian prison system, successes and mistakes, as well as the ways in which the private sector can assist the public power in the execution of the custodial sentence. The analysis will be done taking into account factors such as the overcrowding of Brazilian prisons, the poor quality in physical structures and access to work and education for prisoners. At the level of comparison, we will work with models implemented in the states of the Paraná and Espírito Santo, as well as international examples observed in the States United and France. The focus is to find, within the scope of the analyzed models, ways of effective performance of private companies in the management of prisons that solve the real problems found in Brazilian prison daily life, observing the legal provisions in force, guidance from international bodies and the doctrinal understanding
