Crimes, penas e castigos: uma abordagem cruzada entre a literatura e os direitos humanos

Abstract

There are several forms of repression experienced by humanity in the course of its history, in order to punish those who violate the rigors of conduct prevailing in societies. With the legalistic evolution, the understanding that these practices do not contribute to the social and human development has dissipated. However, even with all legal apparatus, small punitive and oppressive gestures are also observed in order to punish and punish those individuals who present deviant behavior and conduct in disagreement with what is said in human rights. It was sought from Crime and Punishment by Dostoevsky and The Miserables by Victor Hugo's, to identify the condition of the human being in different societies and epochs. With the grant in Norberto Bobbio's The Age of Rights, it was found that man had become a citizen of rights from the construction of modern and contemporary society, that is, that all his rights are the fruits of a historical construction, born in a given context and because of many struggles, being necessary, Therefore, more engagement for its guarantee and continuity in order to transform what, as a rule, remains in the theoretical plane, in the frigid legalistic letter. There was support for the issues of rape that have taken place today, which is important to note that the rights are extratemporal and extraterritorial, as are resilient resolutions for the search for a new history: that of the access road to reach the fundamental rights inherent in Human person.
