A importância da ressocialização do preso e sua inaplicabilidade em consonância com a LEI de Execução Penal

Abstract

Faced with a chronic crisis, the Brazilian Prison System is the subject of several discussions in society. The situation in Brazil is serious, which can be seen in the existence of overcrowded prisons that are in inhumane conditions, a context that affects the whole society that receives the egresses from an environment that promotes crime. In this sense, it is noted that prison has few factors that contribute to the prisoner's resocialization. However, the Law Lei pátria de Execução Penal can be considered one of the most complete in the world, mainly because of its concern for dignity and, consequently, for the rights of the prisoner. Thus, it is possible to observe the inconsistency between the Law and its effective application by penal institutions, based on the high rate of recidivism of prisoners. In the face of this context, the question arises: what, in fact, is resocialization? To answer it, the importance of implementing public policies that provide for the re-socialization of prisoners to be able to return to life outside the walls is taken into account, based on the Law Lei de Execução Penal through its two branches, which are: punish and resocialize. It has actually been demonstrated that the Lei de Execução Penal takes resocialization into account, but there is still no application by penal institutions. Thus, debates on the subject are of great importance, since the discussion is about the recovery of an entire penal system.
