TRABALHO, PUNIÇÃO E POLÍTICA SOCIAL: notas sobre a gestão da miséria e da violência no capitalismo periférico tardio

This article goal is to understand, by bibliographic and documental research and the approach of historical sociology, the changes in the post-authoritarian Brazil of labor and penal institutions under the processes of flexible and global accumulation, on the one hand, and punitive hardening, on the other. In Brazil, historically, the developmentalism, in more or less democratic or authoritarian versions, populist or conservative ways, structured a stratified citizenship. The democratic transition inaugurated a universalist and egalitarian conception of citizenship, whose implementation was limited by both authoritarian tradition and macroeconomic orthodoxy. In this way, Brazil combined inclusivism and punitivism, a latent contradiction that exploded in open conflict with the dissolution of the lulist coalition into the economical and political crises of 2010s years
