Resumo:
Female incarceration is among urgent human rights agendas in Brazil. Several segments of social movements have been linked to the struggle for detention, including the creation of fronts by states. The criminal sciences cannot escape the requirement to analyze and make theory based on the centrality of race and gender relations in understanding mass incarceration and body control strategies in contemporary capitalist societies. Understanding this phenomenon in its entirety is a necessary effort in the fight against the historically structured racist penal system in the country. This paper seeks to verify how the academic works that mobilize the category “race” in the field of female incarceration relate the current configuration of black women’s incarceration to the processes of enslavement in Brazil. The work has a feminist methodological basis and uses bibliographic and documentary research. The works available in the CAPES Journal Portal are analyzed. It appears that the works do not link slavery to the current incarceration of black women in Brazil, nor do they deepen the analysis of the structural dimension of racism in the historical constitution of the penal system.
