Abstract

Prison issues are always on the discussion list among the various sections of society. One of the problem’s most serious consequences in Brazil is the daily high crime rates. Current essay identifies paid labor activities undertaken by jailed peoples in the State Prison of Maringá (SPM) and discusses whether jailed people and the SPM administration admit that such activities meet the aims prescribed by Article 28 of Penal Law, Law 7210 of the 11th July 1984. Data show that SPM is fine-tuned to what the community imagined for such current institutions. Control and domination coexist with a discourse on the possibility of the re-socialization of jailed people.
