Development and Society

This book brings to the debate in an interdisciplinary way the connections between Development, Public Policies and Resocialisation. It seeks to engage in dialogue with the social sciences, the legal sciences and public administration in order to understand how development expands beyond the economic field and can be related to social public policies and resocialisation. The aim of the discussion presented was to unveil concepts and paradigms inherent in the Brazilian prison system and to help (re)formulate public policy agendas in the areas of social development and public security.
