Mots-clés :
Women, prisons, drugs, Mujeres, cárceles, drogasRésumé
This article aims to highlight the discrimination suffered by women prisoners in our country, in particular, of those incarcerated for its direct or indirect relationship with drugs. First we draw a radiography describing women in Spanish prisons, presenting general data, reasons for the high rates of female incarceration, sentences and types of crimes committed by women prisoners, either foreign or nationals, to clearly demonstrate that the drug issue cuts across all these aspects. Secondly, we will discuss the evolution of the Spanish penal law relating to offenses against public health, especially in recent months, in which there has been a significant change in terms of the sentences that are being applied to women. And finally, it will bring up some data on the prevalence of drug use in prisons and treatments developed in them.
Este artículo pretende poner de manifiesto las discriminaciones padecidas por las mujeres encarceladas en nuestro país y, en especial, las de aquéllas privadas de libertad a resultas de su relación directa o indirecta con las drogas. En primer lugar se procederá a realizar una radiografía general del encarcelamiento femenino describiendo datos generales, razones de las altas tasas femeninas de encarcelamiento, condenas y tipos de delitos realizados por mujeres presas nacionales y extranjeras en España, para demostrar claramente que el tema de las drogas es transversal en todos estos aspectos. En segundo término se señalará la evolución de la normativa penal española en relación con los delitos contra la salud pública, especialmente en los últimos meses, en los que se ha producido un importante cambio en cuanto a las condenas que se están aplicando a las mujeres. Y ya, para finalizar, se traerán a colación algunos datos sobre la prevalencia del consumo de drogas en el ámbito penitenciario y los tratamientos que se desarrollan en este medio al respecto.
