Resumen
El siguiente trabajo trata sobre la vida de las mujeres en prisión y, adentrando más en el tema, sobre mujeres con hijos en prisión. Desde hace años se viene castigando a las personas con pocos recursos con la prisión cómo bien explica Wacquant. Existe un gran porcentaje de hombres en prisión y debido a ello, las cárceles están constituidas pensando en ellos, a causa de esto, la mujer tiene un papel mínimo en estos establecimientos, conformándose con menos espacios, instalaciones, formación, etc. Las condenas que deben de cumplir las mujeres son más duras, ya que, cumplir pena es difícil para cualquier persona pero cumplirla alejada de tu familia es peor aún, y si se tiene hijos, se agrava la situación más todavía. Nos centraremos en explicar lo que supone vivir en prisión para las mujeres, ya que, existe mucha discriminación hacia ellas. Por consiguiente, se explicarán las situaciones que van atravesando cuando decidan si sus hijos viven en prisión durante la edad establecida para poder hacerlo o vivir alejadas de ellos, afectando cualquier decisión tanto las madres como a los hijos que residan en centros penitenciarios.
The following article addresses the lives of women in prison and, delving deeper into the topic, women with children in prison. For years, people with few resources have been punished with imprisonment, as Wacquant explains. A large percentage of men are in prison, and because of this, prisons are designed with them in mind. Because of this, women have a minimal role in these establishments, making do with less space, facilities, training, etc. The sentences women must serve are harsher, since serving a sentence is difficult for anyone, but serving it away from your family is even worse, and if you have children, the situation is even worse. We will focus on explaining what living in prison means for women, since there is a lot of discrimination against them. Consequently, we will explain the situations they face when deciding whether their children will live in prison until the established age or live away from them, affecting both mothers and children residing in penitentiary centers.
