Entre ruas, becos e vielas: percursos juvenis e os efeitos sociais da violência na cidade de Palmácia, Ceará

Abstract

The present work is weaved from ethnographic incursions taking as a thread the paths of youths in the city of Palmacia, located in the Maciço de Baturité micro-region, in Ceará, taking into account the processes of social accumulation of violence (MISSE, 2008) in the region itself, correlated with changes in violence indicators. From a multi- localized perspective, the measures of the social drama of the research focus on the ethnographic work in the streets, alleys and alleys of the city, with the objective of analyzing the social effects of violence (PAIVA, 2019) that affect the daily lives of women. youth in urban and rural areas. In this path, especially in terms of practices, subjectivity and performative and cultural aspects, it is noted the intensification of suffering, social inequalities and exclusions and feelings of insecurity; on the other hand, other forms of sociability are observed, which assume configurations of belonging and resistance in the face of problems of violence in peripheral contexts of the city. This incursion is a sketch that leads to multiple views on the existential contexts of youths and the implications of the social effects of violence that affect them, and that, gradually, modifies the dynamics of social relations in an interior city that is configured as urban and rural, specifically when there is a process of dissemination and “internalization” of violence, the criminalization of its practices and the exponential increase in the extermination of black and peripheral youth.
