This work aims to analyze and understand performance of defense counsel in defense of hyposufficient inmates in prisons and Raymundo Asfora Standard in the city of Campina Grande. It seeks to characterize the social construction of Brazilian citizenship questioned by the absence of institutional practices and virtues of the historical formation of the Brazilian State. From this premise in order to unravel the social reality concerning accessibility of the public defender hyposufficient inmates, besides providing the construction of questioning and problematization so that they can contribute to improving the quality of care, considering its importance in the protection of the categories in issue. In this context, the public defender is presented as an institution capable of providing welfare to hyposufficient in resolving their conflicts in a comprehensive and free. On one side is an image of Brazilian society, underpinned by a patchy structure that discredits the most vulnerable segments of society and who lack resources and effective knowledge of their own citizenship. Methodologically, held bibliographic research accomplished on the basis of works by classical and contemporary authors who work with the theme. Besides the theoretical analysis works with empirical research conducted in the public defender, jail Standard and Raymundo Asfora through interviews with prisoners and prison routine analysis in order to get the reality of the criminal justice system. In conclusion we state that one of the fundamental reasons for the difficulty of the construction of Brazilian citizenship is linked to the weight of the past, but specifically the colonial period (1500-1822), when the Portuguese had built a huge country with territorial unit, linguistic, cultural and religious. But they also left an illiterate population, slave society, economy and landowner mocultura an absolutist state, ie, long years are stateless, without citizenship and nation. CARVALHO (2011, p, 19). We also affirm that there were shortcomings in the care of the Public Defender of the State of Paraíba in prison, resulting in the impossibility of confronting issues that make up a backdrop of social differences.
