El proceso de resocialización en la Cárcel Modelo de Bogotá, una aproximación cualitativa

Abstract

Resocialization as a concept and practice is born in a conjuncture of illustration and humanization of the penal exercise, firstly in the West, and later reproduced in the westernized territories. Colombia, as a faithful example of this process, coined this concept within its legislative and criminal practice, amid strong political and dogmatic deputies throughout the 19th and 20th centuries, an aspect that determined the current Colombian penal model, which despite having evolved in the legislation was doomed to the precariousness in which he was born materially. We start from the context referred by the National Model Prison located in Bogotá and the former inmate population of this establishment, to realize that a process of re-socialization within the Colombian prison model, is conditioned by precariousness, an aspect that has shaped marginal and many reproductive crime cases.
