Abstract

The objective of this monograph is to analyze the situation of the prison system in force, in comparison with what is covered in the current legislation on it, observing, through data expressed in the literature, the conditions in which the prison system is located, and if this offers the necessary subsidies for the resocialization of detainees. In this way, a study was made that presents a historical apparatus on the evolution of the sentence, the purpose of the custodial system and the species of penitentiary systems. Next, it was observed the legislation concerning principles, penalties, regimes and penal execution in Brazil, as well as an approach on the rights expressed in the law of penal execution. Finally, the current prison situation in Brazil and especially in Paraíba was observed through data and statistics. According to the study, it was possible to perceive that the present prison system faces major problems, some of them: structural deficiency, unhealthy environments, absence or deficiency in the execution of educational programs for inmates, among others. Thus, it can be concluded that the legislation in general is not put into practice in relation to the detainee and his rights, showing a possible omission of the State in relation to the current prison situation and thus can collaborate for future difficulties regarding the resocialization of the detainee after the execution of sentence.
