MALAVER-PEREZ, Ivonne Magaly. The experience of deprivation of liberty in adolescent women in conflict with the law and the impact on the configuration of their subjectivity. Rev. Crim.

This article aimed to know the impact of the experience of deprivation of liberty in the configuration of the subjectivity of adolescents -self-perceived as women-who serve a sanction in the Specialized Care Center “Hogar Femenino - IPSICOL” in Bogotá. Qualitative methodology was used from the perspective of González Rey’s subjectivity, in-depth interviews were conducted and analyzed with the NVIVO12 Pro program. Each case was characterized and complemented with graphic elucidation, in addition to analyzing the classification of cases among adolescents linked to the Criminal Responsibility System for Adolescents - SRPA for the first time and recidivist adolescents. The results allow us to know that adolescents in general live a process of configuration of their subjectivity that is mobilized between achieving an adaptation to the demands of the institutional context, that is, the request for change and at the same time experience a constant struggle before it. This experience is also perceived as an artificial context for change, a momentary space, distant from their daily lives, that is, as a pause both in cases of recidivist adolescents and in adolescents who entered the SRPA for the first time. From the cultural historical moment that they live from being adolescent women deprived of liberty, they recognize that they are exposed to the decisions that are made with the majority population that is deprived of liberty, which are male adolescents, and they perceive that their particular needs and their characteristics in this experience are unknown.
