HUERTAS-DIAZ, Omar; ECHEVERRY-CANO, Daniel Felipe  y  MANRIQUE-MOLINA, Filiberto Eduardo R.. Reactive criminal policy to tackle the traffic, manufacture and possession of narcotic drug and its negative impact in the prison population recidivism. Rev. Crim. [online]. 2018, vol.60, n.2, pp.9-23. ISSN 1794-3108.

The objective of this work is to analyze the negative impact that the criminal policy and the Colombian penitentiary systems hold, mainly against people who have committed drug trafficking offences, whose highly repressive persecution against the manufacture, possession or narcotic drugs traffic, have not got any significant effect in criminal structures reduction. These criminal structures have been produced on the narco-trafficking business. This has generated an increase in the prison population. These people have a high probability of relapse upon release from prison -criminal recidivism-; it is incited by different factors, particularly the time and the negative influence of prison on them, due to structural problems within the prisons which slow down the special positive prevention, in the absence of a resocialization treatment.

Palabras clave : Relapse; resocialization; prison; overcrowding; treatment; drug addiction (source: Tesauro de política criminal latinoamericana - ILANUD). Drug dependence.
