A eficácia social do Estatuto da Pessoa com Deficiência: uma discussão sobre a permanente violência simbólica contra o público PCD

Abstract

This work addresses the relationship between people with disabilities, symbolic violence and social inclusion, emphasizing the critical analysis of discourse in media news. Initially, the theme is contextualized, emphasizing the relevance of the rights of people with disabilities (DPDs) and the challenges faced for the realization of these rights in a society permeated by stigma and prejudice. The historical construction of social movements that advocate the inclusion of DPDs is discussed, revealing the evolution of perceptions about disability as a social phenomenon that demands more inclusive interventions. Next, the intersection between social inclusion, stigma and symbolic violence is addressed, demonstrating how the media and social discourses perpetuate the marginalization of PDAs, and highlighting the importance of questioning the media narratives that contribute to the invisibility and dehumanization of this group. The analysis of the Status of Persons with Disabilities highlights its role as a significant legal framework, although it points out that the mere existence of standards is not sufficient to guarantee inclusion. By methodology, it is an essentially qualitative research, of documentary nature, whose corpus of analysis were three news from different years since the enactment of the Statute of the Person with Disability, critically analyzing the discourse from the Critical Theory of Discourse in Norman Fairclough (2001) and the Symbolic Violence Theory in Bourdieu (2001), after this we made a triangulation of the data highlighted in the bibliographic review, the document analysis of normative documents and information arranged in the news. The research concludes that the struggle for rights and inclusion is a collective responsibility, which requires the mobilization of various sectors of society and the promotion of inclusive dialogues, aiming to transform the social perception about disability. There is no easy and less complex way out, but the slow and gradual construction of awareness that "normal" is inclusive. The idea of symbolic violence is evident and therefore dangerous. Thus, it is proposed a multifaceted approach that considers the diverse experiences of the PDHs, fostering the logic of a society that values inclusion without edges.
