Barreiro de Macedo, Ailton; Mota Melo, Francisco Taítalo

The present study investigates the impact of the panoptic system on the reduction of violence and the rehabilitation of inmates. Conceived by Jeremy Bentham, the system promotes constant surveillance to instill discipline. The research aims to understand the control mechanisms in the prison system and their relationship with recidivism. The objectives include evaluating the system's effects on reducing violence, analyzing crime prevention strategies, investigating the psychological effects of surveillance, and improving professional training programs for inmates. The aim is to understand the interconnection between four key elements: the panoptic system, inmate monitoring, the sense of constant surveillance, and professional training. The system, based on constant surveillance, is effective in controlling and disciplining prisoners. Electronic monitoring helps prevent crimes and reduce overcrowding. Organizational culture affects inmate rehabilitation and prison efficiency. Training is crucial for inmate reintegration and prison management improvement. These elements highlight the need for innovative approaches to address prison system challenges. Society will benefit from a deeper understanding of the use of the panoptic system in reducing prison violence and rehabilitating inmates. The adopted methodology is systematic literature review, using various sources for in-depth analysis and pattern identification. This qualitative approach aims to comprehensively understand social phenomena.
