• Abstract:

  This research aims to analyze the schooling of women incarcerated in Rio de Janeiro prisons, studying the profile of inmates and observing the availability of places for basic and technical-vocational education, where the courses offered to them are always related to the area of care and beauty, defining gender roles. With this, the memory of the Christian and moralistic education taught by the nuns of `` Instituto Nossa Senhora da Caridade do Bom Pastor`` between the 19th and 20th centuries is related to the education taught today, investigating whether there are still remnants of a sexist teaching that can hinder development educational and professional status of prisoners and also erase their subjectivity, understanding that the schooling process must be a means of social transformation, resistance, maintenance and acquisition of rights. Therefore, to study this topic, Laws and Decrees on the emergence of female penitentiaries and schooling in these environments are examined, relating to data obtained by SISDEPEN, anchored in the concept of discipline (FOUCAULT, 1999) and the conception of liberating education (FREIRE, 2018).
