Aspectos antagônicos entre violência e pobreza

Abstract

Abstract: The main objective of this research is to show, through a methodological bibliographical analysis, the forms of violence, its (false) relation with poverty and its impact on society. The first specific objective is the theoretical discussion of the culture of violence and its unfolding, evidencing the forms of expression of violence and its massification in the media that makes it something everyday in people's lives, a paradox between the restlessness of insecurity (which fosters the use of weapons, for example) and normality or "peaceful" coexistence with crime printed in newspapers, blogs or television programs, all of this, corroborating to the cultural formation of the present day. Once the basic notions have been overcome, the second part of the study will show the influence of the dominant power for the construction of legitimate violence by the State, as public policies conform to the crime rate and violent sociability. The last objective is the analysis of the paradox of the association of crime with poverty. The purpose of the research is to demonstrate the sociological context of the origin of violence, as the ruling class attempts to camouflage their acts and put the blame on the poorest. Keywords: violence, culture, media, weapons, power, poverty.
