The selectivity of the penal system and structural racism in Brazil: the importance of the perspective of memory in combating racial genocide
| Resumo: | The research discusses the criminal selectivity of the Brazilian criminal system, resulting from the structural racism present in the roots of the country's institutions. The research introduces the perspective of memory as an epistemological category in the study of history and penal sciences, seeking to point out its importance to know and treat, with truly solutions, social problems such as the racism that finds its maximum expression in the racial genocide that takes place within the walls of the Brazilian prison. Through a qualitative approach, of an inductive nature, and by means of a literature review, we want to demonstrate that the social phenomenon of the massive incarceration that occurs in Brazil is indeed a form of genocide, which especially affects the young, black and poor people of the periphery, such result being part of a project of the power structures of the State to persecute and segregate social groups. |
