Resumo: | Based on Loïc Wacquant’s theory, neoliberalism has been the main explanatory category related to the expansion of criminal justice system and to the harshening of punishment, both noted from the seventies, in the USA, and from the following decade, in different European countries. Despite being firstly developed to explain the transformations in the US criminal justice system, the “neoliberal penality” is frequently incorporated to the Brazilian criminological speech in attempt to understand the Brazilian mass incarceration. However, the political, economic and social changes experienced in a considerable period of the XXI century in this South American country are apparently ignored in the contemporary national criminological literature. Hence, drawn on an analysis of secondary data on the changes in socioeconomic indicators – such as HDI, GINI index and unemployment rates – and of variations in public investment in different sectors, this article identify some restrictions for importing the neoliberal penality theory as a theoretical framework able to explain completely the unwavering expansion of the Brazilian criminal justice system in times of social inclusion. |

Reconsidering the neoliberal penality: social inclusion and mass incarceration in BrazilRECONSIDERANDO A TESE DA PENALIDADE NEOLIBERAL: INCLUSÃO SOCIAL E ENCARCERAMENTO EM MASSA NO BRASIL: RECONSIDERING THE NEOLIBERAL PENALITY THESIS SOCIAL: INCLUSION AND MASS INCARCERATION IN BRAZILBased on Loïc Wacquant’s theory, neoliberalism has been the main explanatory category related to the expansion of criminal justice system and to the harshening of punishment, both noted from the seventies, in the USA, and from the following decade, in different European countries. Despite being firstly developed to explain the transformations in the US criminal justice system, the “neoliberal penality” is frequently incorporated to the Brazilian criminological speech in attempt to understand the Brazilian mass incarceration.

Embora inicialmente formulada para lidar com as transformações no sistema de justiça criminal estadunidense, a “penalidade neoliberal” é frequentemente incorporada ao discurso criminológico brasileiro na tentativa de compreender o encarceramento em massa no Brasil. No entanto, as transformações político-econômicas e sociais verificadas em um considerável período do século XXI no país sul-americano são aparentemente ignoradas na literatura criminológica nacional contemporânea. Não por outra razão, por meio de análise de dados secundários referentes à variação de indicadores socioeconômicos – como o IDH, o Índice de GINI e a taxa de desemprego – e do investimento público em distintos setores, o presente artigo identifica limitações para a “importação” da teoria da penalidade neoliberal enquanto teoria capaz de explicar integralmente a contínua expansão do sistema penal brasileiro em tempos de inclusão social.Universidade Federal de Goiás2020-07-29info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionAvaliação por "double-blind review"application/pdfhttps://revistas.ufg.br/revfd/article/view/6081710.5216/rfd.v44i1.60817Revista Facultad de Derecho UFG; Vol. 44 Núm. 1 (2020): REVISTA DA FACULDADE DE DIREITO DA UFGMagazine de la faculté de droit UFG; Vol. 44 No. 1 (2020): REVISTA DA FACULDADE DE DIREITO DA UFGRevista da Faculdade de Direito da UFG; v. 44 n. 1 (2020): REVISTA DA FACULDADE DE DIREITO DA UFG0101-7187reponame:Revista da Faculdade de Direito da UFG (Online)instname:Universidade Federal de Goiás (UFG)instacron:UFGporhttps://revistas.ufg.br/revfd/article/view/60817/35145Copyright (c) 2020 Revista da Faculdade de Direito da UFGinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessDal Santo, Luiz Phelipe2020-11-09T12:54:14Zoai:ojs.revistas.ufg.br:article/60817Revistahttps://revistas.ufg.br/revfdPUBhttps://revistas.ufg.br/revfd/oaimcvidotte@gmail.com || rfdufg@gmail.com2317-67330101-7187opendoar:2020-11-09T12:54:14Revista da Faculdade de Direito da UFG (Online) - Universidade Federal de Goiás (UFG)false |
