Políticas públicas para egressos do sistema prisional como instrumento de inclusão social

Abstract

The present work seeks to analyze the possibility of programs and projects aimed at former prison system helpers in promoting the social reintegration of convicts and reducing recidivism. As can be seen, the high rates of incarceration in Brazil are accompanied by the precariousness of the prison system, making it difficult to comply with the minimum adequate conditions imposed by domestic legislation and international conventions. The ideals of resocialization and social reintegration of those in custody are not met. Considering the education and professionalization of the convict as possible auxiliary conditions for his reintegration into social life, the objective was to carry out specific studies that would offer new directions to the issue of penal resocialization and be capable of helping practical work in progress in prison units, as well as how to subsidize public policies for the area. To this end, educational and labor programs and projects developed as a criminal enforcement policy in Brazil were researched, with emphasis on the National Policy for Attention to the Egressed Person, established by the National Council of Justice, in the year 2019, and those conceived by Depen. The study methodology is primarily a dissertation work, with a review of the literature on the subject, in addition to official data on the Brazilian prison system, with the purpose of an investigative study of a multidisciplinary nature. In the first chapter, a literature review was carried out on former prisoners. In the second chapter, concepts and legal aspects about egressed prisoners are presented, outlining the prison system and its difficulties in meeting the goal of resocialization and presenting the National Policy for Attention to the Egressed Person of the National Council of Justice. Therefore, the third chapter deals with the issue of resocialization, including qualitative data on the greatest difficulties faced for emancipation from crime and, therefore, reduction of recidivism..
