Overview

This book is the result of an extensive epidemiological study of Brazil's largest prison population, in the state of São Paulo. It discusses the relationship between drug use disorders and the deterioration of overall health and criminal profiles. Are prisoners with drug use disorders more dangerous, making them more likely to reoffend? Do they tend to commit more serious crimes? And do they have more health problems than the general prison population? These questions led the researcher to delve deeper into the reality of Brazilian prisons and the legislation that supports this population, drawing comparisons with other international realities in search of possible solutions to this problem.
