RESUMO:

The precarious situations of some prisons in the world and in Africa in particular, have triggered concerns of some states and bodies that promote and protect human rights. The precarious nature of prisons and their inefficiency in rehabilitating inmates resulted in several alternative criminal policies, adopted by some countries in order to alleviate the deficits found in their respective prison systems. This research is based on the premise that the biggest problem in the African prison system is the overcrowding of cells and the deterioration of buildings, according to data from the African prisons survey in 2008, reveal that the average number of prisoners awaiting trial in the continent is 45 per 100,000, while the global figure is 44 per 100,000. While the average global rate of detention awaiting trial is 29%, in Africa it is 36%. The reality of the prison population in Guinea-Bissau is no different, for example, in the Bandim detention center, with the capacity to cover up to 56 people, it currently has 120 detainees. With the political instability and the current economic situation in the country, there is a clear need to adopt prison policies capable of promoting and protecting the rights of people deprived of their freedoms, as well as providing them with real rehabilitation. That is, the penal policy must be based on restorative and non-retributive bias. Based on this assumption, we propose a system of social control capable of respecting the country's cultural diversity, that is, one that seeks to reconcile customary Guinean law with the current positive law through elective dialogue. Above all, its forms of social control, said dialogue must ensure respect for the human and fundamental rights of persons deprived of their freedoms, as well as respect the Guinean cultural mosaic. Therefore, with the merger between alternative punishment measures, national and international instruments for human rights in the country and Guinean interculturality, we will thus have an effective and efficient model of social control, which we call Multicultural Alternative Penalties.
