A educação e a ressocialização: formas viabilizadoras de detentos à sociedade

Abstract

One of the persistent problems in Brazil that directly or indirectly affects the population is violence. This is because the country has been showing levels above the world average for violent crimes, characterized by armed violence, homicides and minorities. For this reason, the discussion about the growth of violence in Brazil has been increasing, with regard to the measures and measures that must be taken to mitigate this situation, as a way of guaranteeing security for society. Education, in its strict sense, has been one of the effective ways of transforming the consciousness of the individual that threatens the security of society. However, this reality has been presented in a utopian way, where the most common is the repression of the fight against crime, characterized by different regimes of punishment for the acts practiced. In addition, it is notorious in the middle of society, the lack of concern for the resocialization of the prisoners, once in fulfilling their sentences, they will be back in the social life. In the meantime, this research aimed to demonstrate possible changes in the behavior of citizens through education and at the time of their return to society. In this way, it is possible to infer that, with the construction of public policy projects, specifically in the area of education, will result in reduction of the rate of recidivism with consequent prevention of crime inside and outside the prison. In addition, it will enable the construction of prisoners' citizenship through action-reflection, generating new citizens.
