Sumario:Over the last four decades, America has embarked on an unprecedented social and political experience. The replacement of a state of social welfare by a criminal state indicates that the criminalization of marginality and punitive containment of disinherited categories are confused with social policy: programs aimed at vulnerable populations have always been limited and isolated from the rest of the activities.

We will see through this article the conjuncture of Afro-American imprisonment according to Loic Wacquant.
