This work has as central issue the application of pretrial detention by judicial agencies in the context of the Brazilian criminal justice system. Starting from the premise that the criminal justice systems located in Latin American margin, the periphery of the neoliberal global capitalism, lack legitimacy due to structural factors, in the first chapter, it takes place kind of “general radiography” of the Brazilian penal system tensing it’s official programming, directed to protect human rights by means of combating crime, with the operational reality of their punitive agencies that operate in real reversal, when violate them, that is, opposite to what is proposed, and the great incarceration of the main problems of this reality, occupying the central role pretrial detention for both. Seeking to highlight the close relationship between the application of this institute with the national problem, there was analysis of all habeas corpus judgments of the Court of Justice of Pará, on pretrial detention during the year 2015. Once verified the hypothesis that this cautionary prison is at the confluence of the paraense penitentiary system data with the results of empirical research, essentially dysfunctional to cautelaridade, it passes the prison to be the rule and freedom the exception. In the second chapter, it seeks to theoretically describe the problem in order to not fall to the objectivity of the visible, far beyond the one shown on the data collected and, from the development of problematizing criminological theory (critical criminology), in particular produced in Latin America, it seeks to unveil the existing real functionality, but hidden behind the application of the precautionary prison (unequal social control through penalty anticipation, enemies containment and social defense), and representative decisions of three decision models were analyzed, presented in the first chapter and theoretically studied in the second. Since a critical model of criminal sciences, surpassing the criminological positivism and the belief in the ideology of social defense, criticism proposes a unique and questioning approach to the problem, requalifying the jurist's role (critical jurist). Finally, the last chapter, in view of the considerations made, and qualitative contribution afforded by “criminological magnifying glass” approach is carried out from the warrantism theory which, seen as a political-criminal strategy (methodological approach), nevertheless be open to criticism (especially by criminology), shows interesting response mechanism to delegitimization and, as regards the specific case of pretrial detention is undoubtedly a possible and viable tool for reducing damages from hiperincarceration logic. Since the rescue of historical-foundational perspective of traditional warrantisms to its epistemological reconstruction in the work of Luigi Ferrajoli, it seeks to finally demonstrate the real possibility of reception and application of warrantism criticism of legal foundations authorizes of preventive penal protection for before of (dis)functionality of penal control, reduce prisons, guarantee rights, extend freedoms and save lives.
