Aborto no Brasil: uma pesquisa domiciliar com técnica de urna

Abstract

This paper aims to demonstrate how the field of disability studies consolidated the concept of disability as social oppression. By reviewing the main ideas of the social model of disability, this article presents the genesis of the concept of disability as a restriction of participation for disabled people, as adopted by the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, which Brazil ratified in 2008.

Itinerários e métodos do aborto ilegal em cinco capitais brasileiras

In Brazil, to have a legal abortion in the case of rape, the woman's statement that rape has occurred is considered sufficient to guarantee the right to abortion. The aim of this study was to understand the practice and opinions about providing abortion in the case of rape among obstetricians-gynecologists (OBGYNs) in Brazil. A mixed-method study was conducted from April to July 2012 with 1,690 OBGYNs who responded to a structured, electronic, self-completed questionnaire. In the quantitative phase, 81.6% of the physicians required police reports or judicial authorization to guarantee the care requested. In-depth telephone interviews with 50 of these physicians showed that they frequently tested women's rape claim by making them repeat their story to several health professionals; 43.5% of these claimed conscientious objection when they were uncertain whether the woman was telling the truth. The moral environment of illegal abortion alters the purpose of listening to a patient - from providing care to passing judgement on her. The data suggest that women's access to legal abortion is being blocked by these barriers in spite of the law. We recommend that FEBRASGO and the Ministry of Health work together to clarify to physicians that a woman's statement that rape occurred should allow her to access a legal abortion.

Este artigo analisa como se constrói a verdade do estupro para que a mulher que se apresenta como vítima tenha acesso ao aborto legal no Brasil. Foram entrevistados 82 profissionais de saúde de cinco serviços de referência para aborto legal, um de cada região do país, entre médicos, enfermeiros, técnicos em enfermagem, assistentes sociais e psicólogos. As entrevistas buscaram compreender procedimentos e práticas a que a mulher é submetida para ter acesso ao aborto legal. Apesar de particularidades na organização e no funcionamento dos serviços, identificamos um regime compartilhado de suspeição à narrativa da mulher que se expressa por práticas periciais de inquérito em torno do acontecimento da violência e da subjetividade da vítima. A verdade do estupro para o aborto legal não se resume à narrativa íntima e com presunção de veracidade, mas é uma construção moral e discursiva produzida pela submissão da mulher aos regimes periciais dos serviços.
