Trabalho carcerário. Autossuficiência dos presídios e ressocialização dos presidiários.

Abstract

The present article aims to investigate the role of work within the prison context, not only as a tool for social reintegration but also as a crucial component for the economy, outlining the positive and negative aspects of this type of labor activity. The research adopted a bibliographic approach, analyzing a variety of sources, including books, articles, and official documents, in order to obtain a comprehensive and multifaceted understanding of the subject at hand. The findings highlight the delicate nature of work in the prison environment, showcasing its ability to promote social reintegration and reduce criminal recidivism. However, they also underscore serious concerns related to the potential exploitation of inmate labor, which could compromise human dignity and fundamental rights of those involved. This study sheds light on the complexity of this issue, emphasizing the need for carefully balanced approaches that prioritize both rehabilitation and respect for human rights.
