Violência e luta por direitos no capitalismo contemporâneo: crítica à configuração do atendimento às mulheres no Rio Grande do Norte

This research analyzes the Rio Grande do Norte care services to women who face violence in the context of contemporary capitalism. To do so, we situate the patriarchy in the set of current social relations and its relationship with the corporate determinations in everyday life. The new functions of the Patriarchy in the capital sociability permeates the lives of individuals and particularizes the relationships of violence which affects women, requiring, in the immediate level, policy-making to face them. The research found an arsenal of contradictory possibilities and limitations in dealing with violence. In this process, forms of struggle and resistance predominate, which appear as possibilities and limits were identified relate to the socio-historical context of regression of the rights, historical moment in which increase the objective difficulties in everyday life to ensure the legal achievements. It is worth to emphasize the achievements and contradictions that characterize the struggle process for rights, linking services to women to the social policies and to the limits they face in opposition to the aims of the State to meet the mandatory requirements of capital, reducing its role as the main guarantor of policies and rights. In this sense, the trajectory of the achievements that have referred to the proclamation of a specific law to deal with combat violence against women, the Maria da Penha Law - 11.340/06, which provides an integrated set of measures that, if implemented, would allow the women protection from relations of violence they experience. We identified in Rio Grande do Norte precarious services that are essential to achieve the Maria da Penha Law. This situation requires a feminist organization to claim the rights that enable women to see themselves as people with rights in the process of collective struggle. This is the historical need for continuity of struggles that accumulate policies for the existence of a new model of social relations of gender. One of the possibilities that are presented in the current context is the impact on the public budget in order to ensure compliance with the budget for public policies for women - woman budget. In this perspective, feminist segments in national and state level have been organized to understand the functioning and monitoring of social policies. This is a condition and prerequisite for ensuring policies to ensure basic rights and the violence combat , which still requires an integrated set of services. The survey results allow us to consider that the struggle for rights is necessary at this historical moment, however it is not sufficient in human emancipation, which requires new forms of social relations that determine substantive equality between men and women. Thus, the feminist movement faces the challenge to organize and strengthen itself in daily life, in order to execute a project that changes the meaning of women's rights, articulated to a corporate project which wants other command in the set of social relations . This study emphasizes the need for a more and more organic connection between feminism and social struggles, to ensure the inclusion of women in anti-capitalist struggle

Violência e sagrado: o que no criminoso anuncia o santo?

Este artigo apresenta um exame preliminar de dois cultos religiosos populares que ocorrem atualmente no Nordeste do Brasil. Em dois cemitérios, no Rio Grande do Norte, o cangaceiro Jararaca e o ladrão homicida Baracho (espécie de ‘serial killer’, conhecido como ‘matador de motoristas’), são objetos de devoção religiosa por parte de crentes que afirmam ter alcançado milagres por seu intermédio ou que acreditam que virão a alcançá-los por meio de promessas que então, à beira de seus túmulos, não hesitam em fazer. A fé em seus milagres convive com a memória dos feitos dos bandidos que foram em vida, narrados com um misto de admiração e reprovação moral. O tradicional modelo do bandido social, que rouba para dar aos pobres, vem então em seu socorro, de modo a permitir uma continuidade entre o passado criminoso e o presente ‘santificado’. Dentre os fatores centrais nesse processo de ‘santificação’ do bandido, segundo o discurso dos entrevistados, estão a morte violenta e o sofrimento físico e moral a ela associados. O quadro esboçado aqui mostra-nos que se trata de santos muito especiais, isto é, santos precários, posto que sua santidade é objeto de constante controvérsia e contestação mesmo por aqueles que acreditam em seu poder de operar milagres. E parece ser mesmo isso o que os torna tão interessantes, mesmo do ponto de vista dos seus adeptos.
