Item type:Publication, A decolonial and depatriarchal approach to women’s imprisonment: Co-governance, legal pluralism and gender at Santa Mónica Prison, Perú(Palgrave Macmillan, 2022-01-01)Research about prisons in the Global South has started to analyse the power dynamics between prison staff and prisoners, but it has focused mainly on men's prisons. Following decolonial and feminist, the chapter is based on the empirical data produced during an ethnography in Santa Monica, a women's prison in Lima, Peru. I argue that Santa Monica functions through a co-governance with prisoner-delegates who have the role of intermediaries or interface brokers. Moreover, I propose that prison is a site of interlegality where national law and customary law superimpose and interpenetrate in the subjects' actions and minds. Consequently, social relationships between authorities, prison staff and prisoners are defined by a hybrid legal system. I conclude with the importance of recognising different types of political and social organisations, not only as the result of errors or of failed development processes in the Global South, but also as an alternative configuration that may lead us to question how we conceptualise prison and imprisonment. In the same line, I acknowledge women prisoners are not only moulded by patriarchal structures, but also recognise the ambivalences and the possibilites of organising and engaging in semi-autonomous actions while imprisoned.
