Ressocialização do preso na sociedade atual

Abstract

The prisoner's reintegration into society is a serious and very complex problem. The vast majority of ex-convicts have enormous difficulty reintegrating into society, many have to face life without any professional training and, due to the lack of employment and educational and professional opportunities, tend to return to crime as the “only option”. Bearing in mind that resocialization is ensured by the criminal enforcement law, in force since 1984, this paper aims to show the difference between "theory" and "practice", as it is analyzed that the world behind bars is very different from what the law provides. The problem in question is the overcrowding in penitentiaries, many of them known as “crime schools” that do not fulfill their socializing role. The analysis and identification of legal relationships that promote the resocialization of ex-prisoners to the labor market and even to society, as well as society's vision on the subject. As specific objectives, identify the problems faced, verify the applicability of the Resocialization Program adopted by the State and society's view of the issue under study. Given the above, this is an issue of enormous importance and should be debated with extreme responsibility, given the current situation of the Brazilian prison system, which is one of the most overcrowded in the world, according to data from DEPEN.
