A (in) eficácia das medidas socioeducativas de internação na fundação de Porto Alegre a partir da análise da reincidência e da inclusão ao cárcere.

Abstract

The reality of some young Brazilians follows difficult paths that lead them to commit crimes and thus, instead of serving time in jail - like adults - are sent to a juvenile re-socialization institute. Currently, the indexes presented in the newspapers related to the infractions committed by minors are high, and the authors are often repeat offenders. Considering this situation, the present study aims to study the foundation for the resocialization of young offenders located in Porto Alegre, Rio Grande do Sul State. The institution for juvenile offenders is of great importance in guaranteeing the comprehensive protection advocated by the Federal Constitution. However, at the same time that the State has the responsibility to promote the welfare of the young offender, it is committed to the safety of the population in general. For this reason, young offenders should have their freedom restricted in order to discipline them when they commit an infraction of high offensive potential. Therefore, the central problem of this monographic work is to verify if FASE / RS fulfills its objective of resocialization of the juvenile offenders. To do so, it demonstrates the internal functioning of the institution and the policies used to achieve the goal, as well as analyzes real numbers on the entry and exit of young offenders seeking to assess the effectiveness of the system itself from the criterion of recidivism, in other words, of the return of the offender to the delinquent life after the first intern. For that, historical and quantitative methods were used to finally verify that the number of young re-entries in the analyzed institution is, on average, 40% of the number of the first entrants and therefore, it can not be said that it is an institution that fulfills its main objective of resocialize the adolescent offender.
