Lazer, agressividade e violência: considerações sobre o comportamento das torcidas organizadas

O futebol possui grande representatividade social em diferentes culturas. Porém, a paixão despertada nas torcidas pode gerar comportamentos agressivos e violentos, em um momento que deveria ser de diversão, caracterizando o lazer desviante, o qual ainda não está devidamente esclarecido. Esta pesquisa qualitativa teve como objetivo investigar, nos estudos acadêmicos, o comportamento agressivo das torcidas organizadas e seus desdobramentos no tempo destinado ao lazer. Para tanto, na pesquisa bibliográfica, buscou-se informações em obras de referência, compostas por livros e teses, além da consulta a diferentes bases de dados, com os descritores: lazer, torcidas organizadas, agressividade e violência. Os resultados indicam que, independente da gênese do comportamento agressivo, quando em presença de um grupo, ou dependendo do contexto sociohistórico, da composição das torcidas, da violência integrante da sociedade, da mídia, da má organização esportiva e da impunidade, estes fatores podem afetar mudança no comportamento individual, contribuindo para manifestações agressivas e violentas no âmbito futebolístico em campo e nas torcidas. Este tipo de manifestação pode favorecer a diminuição do público nos estádios, além de repercutir na delimitação das atividades vivenciadas no contexto do lazer. Estas condutas violentas podem, até mesmo, acarretar graves conseqüências nos âmbitos físico e/ou psíquico. Por fim, aponta-se a premência de políticas públicas específicas envolvendo o lazer e os megaeventos.

As torcidas de futebol como organizações diversificadas: um estudo de caso sobre a torcida organizada Gaviões da Fiel

Although they are two distinct fields of social practices, football and carnival are components of national identity. According the academic research tradition, these two phenomenons are studied separately. However, by characteristics of the city of Sao Paulo, these two social practices are performed by the same social actors: the fans of teams in the city, and join organizations of supporters - the cheerleaders - created from these same institutions, schools samba and now also compete in the Carnival of Sao Paulo, as is the case of Torcida Organizada Gaviões da Fiel, used as an object of study for this work. The approach of these cultural events helped define the question that guided the research: the associations of football fans, when observed by an administrative perspective, can be characterized as diverse organizations? From this question, one tries to describe the way a fan club is organized through the division of tasks that takes, as well as explain the type of organizational structure appropriate to accomplish the two goals it is intended for: cheer for the favorite team and be a part of the carnival parade
