| Abstract | This dissertation both narrates and discusses the experience of listening to people that have already been imprisoned, in order to understand how they conduct themselves and deal with what the media daily says and causes people to say about criminality, thus reproducing concepts, conducts and modes of existence. The Conversation Circle methodology was applied to people discharged from prison in a setting that favored the discussion and reflection on values, concepts and perceptions, by enabling the participants to play an important role in the process of subjectivation from what was produced in that exchange. The use of newspaper reports as well as radio and television programs referred by the participants was proposed to encourage the discussions. My interventions were aimed at fostering the debate and pointing out the importance of sharing ideas and designing living alternatives in the collective. The research also intended to favor the production of narratives of stories and experiences as a practice of freedom and strategies of social coexistence. The most significant research results evidenced regularity of the discourses in accordance with the following units: Discrimination, prejudice and criminalization of poverty; Partisan politics and corruption; Work, education, citizenship and quality of life; and Rights and assistentialism. The theoretical discussion about the results approached the understanding of the criminalization of poverty and the effects of the process of categorization and identity contruction of the poor as a dangerous class. Aspects related to the policies for access to education and work as a possibility of social integration were discussed on the grounds of the legislation and social governmentality. Differences in the access to rights, the impact of corruption on the relationships between the population and the State, and the possible intensification of assistentialism were noticed. The foundations of the topics also considered the understanding that the media play an outstanding role in the subjectivation process by both being partial in spreading the issues they address and giving visibility to hegemonic discourses. The study was grounded on the Foucauldian perspective to understand the power-knowledge relation at stake in the discourses, regarding power as conduction of conducts and possibility of resistence. Finally, the study considered Walter Benjamin’s concept of narratives and experience as a means to cause disruptions in the media discourses and enable the creation of different modes of existence. |
