Mulheres no cárcere : uma análise da (in)aplicabilidade dos dispositivos da lei de execuções penais e legislações esparsas.

Abstract

The current work seeks to analyze the conditions in which the Brazilian inmates are in, and also how the Court of Law of Rio Grande do Sul and The Federal Supreme Court have been working to pass diverse sentences to the imprisonment, sentences which make justice to the offences committed, in order to diminish the prison population and guarantee an appropriate carrying out of the sentence according to the principle of individualization of penalties. Furthermore, this present work debates the path that leads women into the criminal life, including, her role in a patriarchal society which adopts a stricter treatment than the standard one in a criminal sphere. The problem related to overcrowded prisons, is handled in order to demonstrate the practice of diverse sentences may be effective while helping to diminish the sentence. This study was done according to several bibliographies, with hope of attaining new knowledge through deductive method.
