A Influência religiosa da Igreja Congregação Cristã do Brasil na recuperação dos detentos do Presídio Harry Amorim Costa, em Dourados-MS

Abstract

The purpose of this article is to examine, through an inductive approach, the Church "Christian Congregation"'s influence, a religion that emerges from Pentecostal matrix, as a contributor to recovery and rehabilitation of the Presidio Harry Amorim Costa's inmates, in order to seek an understanding of the role of religion in this process. The article examines how religion occupies the role that originally should be the State's one, rehabilitating the inmates during their stay in the prison system of Prison of Maximum Security Harry Amorim Costa and, a posteriori, when they return to society. For that, methods of oral research, counting on many members involved in the process and written sources were used.
