Estado penal e a gestão da criminalidade : impactos na política de socioeducação no estado de Mato Grosso

Abstract

The general objective of this work was to: analyze the possible effects of the Penal State concept on the management of state public security policy and the impacts on socio-education policy in Mato Grosso. The specific objectives were: to analyze the structure and historicity of Brazilian social policies aimed at children and adolescents, presenting a focus on Mato Grosso; point out the analytical and methodological paths of the conception of the Penal State and the management of crime and the implications for guaranteeing rights; identify the process of administrative structuring of the State Executive Branch focused on socio-education policy, since the promulgation of the Sinase Law in 2012, and the possible elements of the conception of a penal state. Approach the State Secretariat for Public Security (SESP-MT), a social institution that is constituted from demands and concrete social relations, the result of demands produced by collective subjects, permeated by contradictions, therefore, it does not configure itself as a neutral space, nor does it exist in isolation, being responsible for the administration of the prison and socio-educational systems. The research is qualitative, bibliographic and documentary in nature, which made it possible to understand that the Criminal Justice, Public Security and Socio-educational Systems are governed by the logic of neoliberalism that constantly seeks to remake the nexus between market, State and citizenship based on bourgeois order. In this way, prisons constitute a central/structuring body of this State. Finally, carrying out this research was intended to contribute to reflection so that the daily actions of all people involved in socio-educational care have as their horizon the implementation of a humanized and civic-minded socio-education policy throughout the country.
