The author, Evandro Piza Duarte, examines the colonization of knowledge in the Brazilian penal sciences, denouncing the historical use of race as a criminogenic factor. Through an approach from the Global South, the book questions transnational intellectual elites and offers a renewed look at drug policy and the racialization of justice in Brazil. An essential read to understand the structural violence of the penal system from a critical and decolonial perspective.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is it about?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book articulates texts that seek to build bridges between Critical Criminology and theories that denounce the racist violence of the penal system. It focuses on the construction of a Criminology of the South, conceived from the South and based on local problems analyzed with a critical eye toward global intellectual elites. The author explores the colonization of Brazilian thought in the field of penal sciences, uncovering the historical relationship that has used race as a criminogenic factor. Confronting the debate between the passive reception of foreign theories and local creative appropriation, Piza Duarte highlights the colonial nature of criminological knowledge. Finally, it provides a detailed analysis of drug policy and how it has contributed to the racialization of the justice system in Brazil since the 1990s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMain themes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eCritique of structural racism in the penal system and traditional criminology.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eConstruction of a Criminology of the South and decolonial thought.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eColonization of knowledge in Brazilian penal sciences.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eHistorical use of race as a criminogenic factor.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eRacialization of the justice system and drug policy in Brazil.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is it recommended for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis book is recommended for researchers, academics, and students of Criminology, Law, Social Sciences, and Decolonial Studies.
