“Tá com dó? Leva pra casa!” Análise dos discursos favoráveis à redução da maioridade penal em rede social

Abstract

Resumo: Pretende este artigo analisar as proposições favoráveis à redução da maioridade penal expressas em publicações de uma página virtual da rede social Facebook. Constata-se que a volúpia punitiva se expressa de maneira seletiva e hierárquica sobre determinados adolescentes, de modo que o recrudescimento da punição é concebido como estratégia de resolução a problemas sociais supostamente gerados por uma sociedade protetiva e permissiva. O estudo é orientado pelo método de análise hermenêutico-dialético que visa compreender e, ao mesmo tempo, confrontar a problemática frente às suas contradições e conflitos. A partir do diálogo entre campos de saber interdisciplinares, problematiza-se a implicação destes pressupostos acerca da redução da maioridade penal no que tange à constituição do sujeito autor de ato infracional e dos sujeitos produtores destes discursos, assim como o impacto destas afirmativas em sociedades marcadas por relações excludentes.

Analysis of Speeches in Favor of Reducing the Legal Age for Criminal Responsibility in a Social NetworkAbstract: This article aims to analyze the proposals in favor of reducing the legal age for criminal responsibility, expressed in publications of a virtual page of Facebook. It appears that the punitive voluptuousness is selectively and hierarchically expressed on certain teenagers, as the resurgence of punishment is designed as a solving strategy to social problems supposedly generated by a protective and permissive society. The study is guided by the hermeneutic-dialectic method which seeks to understand and, at the same time, confront this problematic in terms of its contradictions and conflicts. From a dialogue between interdisciplinary fields of knowledge, the implication of these assumptions about reducing the legal age for criminal responsibility is discussed, related to the constitution of the subject who commits an offense and of the subjects that produce these speeches, as well as the impact that these speeches have on societies marked by social exclusion.

Review of Scientifi c Literature on the Age of Criminal Majority in Braz il

“…In relation to the results found, it was evidenced that, from diff erent theoretical and methodological perspectives, the majority of the articles (Campos, 2009;Corte Real & Conceição, 2013;Dias, 2017;Espíndula et al, 2006;Petry & Nascimento, 2016;Scisleski et al, 2015;Silva & Hüning, 2015) described how diff erent subjects (parliamentarians, legal operators, professionals of the socio-educational system, students, users of social networks, etc.) perceived the phenomenon of juvenile criminality, forming a kind of mosaic with stereotypes of adolescents in confl ict with the law.…”

“…27, nº 1, p. 113-126 -March/2019 these, seven were published in scientifi c journals of Psychology, two in journals of Social Communication and two in journals of Political Science. The Psychology studies were concentrated in the following categories: developmental psychology and morality (Cunha, Ropelato, & Alves, 2006;Galvão & Camino, 2011), social psychology (Corte Real & Conceição, 2013;Espíndula et al, 2006;Petry & Nascimento, 2016) and institutional analysis (Scisleski, Bruno, Galeano, Santos, & Silva, 2015;Silva & Hüning, 2015). The articles of Social Communication can be characterized as studies of the editorial organization of newspapers (Dias, 2017) and the interaction between communication and politics (Maia et al, 2017).…”

“…Regarding the objectives and research designs, the studies were grouped into three groups. One group, composed of four articles (Corte Real & Conceição, 2013;Petry & Nascimento, 2016;Scisleski et al, 2015;Silva & Hüning, 2015), described, from diff erent theoretical frameworks, how various social segments perceive juvenile crime and its subject, the "adolescent in confl ict with the law". The study by Corte Real and Conceição (2013) sought to identify the social representations of parliamentarians regarding the reduction of the age of criminal majority, and was based on 13 legislative documents (reports, judgments and constitutional amendment proposals) in progress in the National Congress.…”

“…The study by Silva and Hüning (2015) sought to investigate the punitive rationality of 37 constitutional amendment proposals (PECs), in the Chamber of Deputies, using the justifi cations presented in the legislative documents as sources. Petry and Nascimento (2016) analyzed discourses favorable to reducing criminal imputability, published spontaneously on a virtual page in social networks, in order to identify the ideologies that support them. The article by Scisleski et al (2015) mapped the institutionalized practices by the Justice and socio-educational system professionals with respect to adolescents sentenced with deprivation of liberty (incarceration).…”

40 anos: o que a Psicologia tem produzido enquanto ciência e profissão?

“…Os textos apresentam análise interdisciplinar das políticas de segurança, com enfoque para o encarceramento em massa, problematizando a criminalização de grupos minoritários e a adoção de uma racionalidade punitiva em práticas governamentais no Brasil contemporâneo. Neste núcleo estão presentes análises sobre produção de morte (Almeida, 2017), relação entre as forças policiais e a população (Azevedo, 2017) e redução da maioridade penal (Petry & Nascimento, 2016).…”
