TERRITORIALIDADES, MULHERES E CÁRCERE

The present theoretical study aimed to reflect on territorialities and women in prison. It is a reflexive analysis originating from questions about territorialities, which raised reflections on how they are represented and related by women in prison. This study was structured in two main sections. In the first section, concepts and uses of territory and territoriality are presented, as well as from their sociopolitical and cultural perspective. Then, in the second section, it reflects on territorialities and women in prison. From the concepts found in this essay it was noticed that the dimensions of territory and territoriality permeate spatialities and the individuality of the subjects, as well as their collectivities, culture, social and political relations, transposing this space to a multi order, which is constantly constructed and reconstructed. When such concepts are explored and analyzed from the perspective of the women in prison can also reflect on the multiterritoriality of these women and the power relations that permeate these territories.
