SUMMARY:

The Brazilian prison system currently has the third largest prison population in the world and is characterized by recurrent human rights violations. In the midst of this scenario, the worrying growth of the incarceration of women is highlighted, evidenced by the increase of 442% between the years 2000 and 2021. The criminalization process has been predominantly directed at black, young, poor and low-educated women, in addition to having a majority expressiveness in crimes related to drug trafficking. These indices are related not only to a greater insertion of these women in the illegal drug market in recent years, but mainly to the occupation of women in positions of greater vulnerability, making them more susceptible to the action of criminal policy, as is the case of women as “mules”. In this sense, the objective of this research is to analyze the processes of oppression and criminalization that affect women arrested and convicted for transporting illicit drugs to prisons. Therefore, two stages of research will be carried out: documentary and field. The documentary research will be developed from the analysis of STF and STJ decisions about women who were arrested transporting drugs to prisons. Regarding the field research, it is intended to carry out semi-structured interviews with women convicted of trafficking as a result of transporting illicit substances to prisons in Paraíba. Data analysis will be carried out in the light of the theoretical references of Critical Criminology with emphasis on the perspective of Criminal Abolitionism.
