Abstract
El objetivo de este artículo es presentar estudios carcelarios sobre la experiencia de maternidad en la cárcel de algunos países latino americanos y re-lacionarlos con los conceptos de institución totalitaria de la cárcel de Goffman (1984), de la función de vigilar y castigar de Foucault (1998) y del sujeto agente carcelaria de Montero Lucic (2005). La metodología empleada es la revisión bibliográfica. Se revisarán los siguientes aspectos de la maternidad carcelaria en los centros penitenciarios en Chile, Argentina, Bolivia, Ecuador, Colombia, Uruguay, México y Brasil: los derechos reproductivos de las mujeres encarceladas, el derecho a la capacitación y trabajo de las madres encarceladas, la infraestruc-tura de los centros penitenciarios para madres e hijos, las medidas disciplinarias para madres encarceladas, programas de cuidados especiales penitenciarios para mujeres embarazadas. Los resultados indican que la cárcel para las reclusas madres latinoamericanas representa generalmente una institución de control, vigilante y castigadora e infrecuentemente les permita una posición de “sujeto agente” generando sus propias estrategias de adaptación en el cautiverio.
This article aims to present prison studies on the maternity experience in prison in Latin American countries and relate them to the concepts of totalitarian institution of Goffman's prison (1984), Foucault's function of monitoring and punishing (1998) and prison agent subject of Montero Lucic (2005). The methodology used is the bibliographical review. This paper will review aspects of prison maternity in Chile, Argentina, Bolivia, Ecuador, Colombia, Uruguay, Mexico and Brazil: the reproductive rights of incarcerated women, the right to training and work of incarcerated mothers, the infrastructure of penitentiary centers for mothers and children, the disciplinary measures for incarcerated mothers, and special penitentiary care programs for pregnant women. The results indicate that prisons for Latin American mother inmates mostly represent a controlling, vigilant, and punishing institution which infrequently allows them a position of "agent subject" to generate their own adaptation strategies in captivity.
