Abstract

This monograph seeks to establish a new view on whiteness by referring in the structural system the perspective of privileges, especially in the face of criminal law. For this, the subversion of the concept of (WARE, 2004) universality of the white skin is presented, visiting the perspective of the "Other" as a racialized being. Thus, white is placed at the center of the racial perspective with the introduction of its historical cut and, above all, the dismantling of the idea of white homogenization, focusing on its diverse and heterogeneous experience, on a quest for the idea of being whiter. Following the methodological step, one can perceive the influence of the character of structural racism in the coercive form of the penal legislation. Thus, it is pointed out how there is a true criminal selectivity that affects the bodies considered undesirable by the castration of the same in a politics of incarceration and later, the effective elimination of these experiences. At the end, in order to assure and crown the methodological cut of privilege, the plea bargain is studied as a probative instrument, but it resolves a character of ideological political privilege that studies the presumption of innocence and disincarnating measures for whiteness, while for blackness the policy of incarceration reigns, not forgetting that every prisoner is a political prisoner.
