A violência das (e contra as) policias do Estado do Rio Grande do Sul

Partindo dos dados referentes à criminalidade e à violência executada pelos policiais civis e militares do Estado do Rio Grande do Sul, foi-se em busca do estudo sobre as relações entre a violência e a vitimização policial, bem como as relações entre estes fenômenos e a violência social em geral, onde a polícia não participa. Circulando por caminhos tortuosos, driblando a falta e a inconsistência de alguns dados, chegou-se a conclusões, algumas até surpreendentes, sobre as disparidades das metades norte e sul do Estado, influenciando na forma de (re)agir do policiais. Buscou-se também caracterizar, conectando os dados empíricos com teoria sociológica, as dinâmicas de ação violenta, tanto das polícias quanto dos não-policiais, através do estudo das lesões corporais e homicídios agregados por Coredes do Estado, separando os que tiveram policiais como vítimas e autores, daqueles onde a polícia não participou diretamente.

O tratamento dado à violência doméstica contra crianças e adolescentes pela justiça criminal : estudo de caso em Santa Maria

A violência doméstica contra as crianças e os adolescentes constitui hoje um dos parâmetros de discussão apresentados pelos movimentos sociais e pela sociedade civil. Reconhecida há poucas décadas como um problema social no país, ela representa um dos componentes relacionados aos debates sobre a operacionalidade da Justiça no Brasil. Reconhecendo a pluralidade de modelos de organização familiar e as formas alternativas de apaziguamento dos embates sociais, procurou-se entender que tipo de tratamento é conferido pelos tribunais àquelas ações litigiosas que convergem para o seu campo de atuação. Por meio de um estudo de caso do sistema de justiça criminal na cidade de Santa Maria, confrontando os tipos de sentença terminativa atribuídas aos processos com os elementos legais e extralegais utilizados pelos operadores do direito, percebeu-se as especificidades do funcionamento destas instâncias judiciais em relação aos conflitos interpessoais vivenciados no âmbito doméstico. Diante de um movimento crescente que procura aumentar a penalização para os crimes que envolvem estas formas de violência, foi possível discutir como estes conflitos são solucionados nas varas criminais comuns e no juizado especial criminal. A partir dos elementos encontrados ao longo do trabalho de campo, apreendeu-se que embora a informalização da justiça viabilize uma participação mais efetiva da vítima e de seu representante legal no processo, em detrimento à justiça comum, tornando mais célere o movimento da ação litigiosa e oportunizando a conciliação entre as partes, ela depara-se, ainda, com os problemas relacionados à interpretação da legislação e à percepção desta temática pelos agentes do aparelho judiciário.

In this perspective, this study aims to analyze the performance of nurses dealing with the Strategy of Family Health viewing to identify actions based on the paradigm of health distribution. This is a descriptive, exploratory and qualitative research. The data were analyzed based on the content analysis about the method proposed by Bardin. The study was conducted in Mossoró-RN and the participants were 14 nurses working for the Family Health Strategy in Health Units of this town. The instrument for data collection was a semi-structured questionnaire, with questions answered by the participants themselves. It was evident to the study that the nurses believe that health education are the main tool for dealing with domestic violence against children, being developed, however, in its positivist and vertical way. The actions used to develop health performed by the team on their daily lives are limited to educational activities and are carried exactly when cases of family violence against children are notified. Barriers to the practice emerged from fear of reprisals from the agressor, overwork, lack of management support and difficulty for the realization of interdisciplinary, intersectorality and comprehensive care.

Violência sexual intrafamiliar contra crianças e adolescentes: o estado da arte em periódicos em psicologia

Intrafamily sexual violence against children and adolescents is a highly complex and serious issue in terms of the damage caused to this population. However, despite the relevance of this discussion, the matter only began to be addressed in the second half of the twentieth century, with its inclusion in academic research from the perspective of damage caused to the victims. Debate on intrafamily sexual violence against children and adolescents has intensified in recent decades, particularly with the enactment of the Statute on Children and Adolescents (Federal Law 8069/90), which recognizes children and adolescents as rights holders. Open discussion on the issue meant several fields of knowledge began to study the topic. Particularly prominent among these areas is the field of Psychology, promoting theoretical discussions and practical interventions focusing on this type of violence. Given the theoretical and methodological diversity of psychological science and the many possibilities for the production of knowledge, this study aims to map and debate research conducted in the field that discusses intrafamily sexual violence against children and adolescents in Brazil. To that end, articles published in Psychology journals were analyzed. In order to achieve this objective, a search was conducted of Scielo Brasil using descriptors on the subject, chosen from a list reported by Faleiros (2000). The time frame studied was between 1990 and 2013, therefore included the date of the enactment of the Statute of Children and Adolescents. Qualitative analysis was selected as a data analysis technique around two main themes. The first involved analyzing the concept of intrafamily sexual violence based on its components. The second analytical theme addressed the theoretical and methodological strategies used by the authors. The aim was to identify and discuss the approaches chosen to achieve the proposed objectives as well as the justifications provided by the authors for their research. Analyses of these themes were based on theoretical discussions on intrafamily sexual violence against children and adolescents. Difficulties were identified in conceptualizing intrafamily sexual violence so as to include all its elements and differentiate it from sexual exploitation. The studies assessed showed substantial diversity in both the theoretical and methodological approaches used, contributing to understanding the phenomenon. It is expected that this study will contribute to reflection on intrafamily sexual violence against children and adolescents, promoting new studies and/or practical interventions

La ruta entre el conocimiento y el método establecido implica el análisis conceptual de la infancia, la educación infantil y violencia doméstica contra los niños, además de la realización de grupos focales con los participantes de la encuesta con sus registros en un diario de campo. Perciben a sí mismos para el estudio de las contradicciones en la lucha contra la violencia doméstica contra los niños.
