Abstract

Brazilian prison system is characterized by multiple types of violence, being nationally and internationally known for its recurrent violations of human rights. In this context, the families of the convicts, especially the women, have a featured role when it comes to the affective and material support given to the convicts. In spite of that, we can see that those families are usually treated in tyrannical way by the State, being submitted to humiliation and embarrassment which are incompatible with the dignity of the human person. The aim of this article is to problematize the main violations of human rights imposed to convicts’ families, as well as the possible impacts it brings to their subjectivity.
