Gestão privada no sistema penitenciário do Brasil.

Abstract

The current situation in the prison system makes us reflect on the forms of punishment provided for in our legal system that take into account the restriction of the individual's physical freedom. Endless rebellions, constant insecurity, an outdated system that directly attacks human rights and, above all, respect for the physical and moral integrity of prisoners are problems that raise the most suggestive and unusual solutions. But is there a solution? In search of an answer to this problem, the present work developed on private management in the prison system in Brazil, aims to analyze the legality, implementation, viability and effectiveness of a new outsourced prison model that leads to the re-socialization of the inmate, taking as samples the private administration of the Regional Industrial Penitentiary of Cariri in Juazeiro do Norte (PTRC), in the State of Ceará, and the public administration in the Regional Prison of Sousa (PRS), in the municipality of Sousa, in the State of Paraíba. Through the visit to PIRC, where we had the opportunity to collect accurate data from reality, it was found that when it comes to infrastructure, this penitentiary far exceeds the PRS when checking overcrowding in this with the burden of not having enough cells to house , separately, inmates, detainees and pre-trial detainees in a proportion of 50 places to 119 only. It is worth mentioning the excellent state of conservation of each sector of the PIRC. In some places, the intern has the freedom to express his artistic and literary gifts by painting and writing on walls reserved for this purpose, thus making the environment even more pleasant. In addition to good physical conditions, it offers various activities to inmates to make their days useful and productive. taking them out of idleness and stimulating work and study In view of what has been exposed, it can be seen that the experience of outsourcing implemented at PIRC is a significant advance 'and is perfectly viable for our prison system, considering that in such penitentiary units there are greater conditions to preserve the rights of prisoners, reaching the primary objective of the criminal law, resocialization. However, there is still a high degree of rejection of this new prison model, due to a fear of transferring the administration of prisons to private initiative.
