Resumo: | Several national constitutions and international legal instruments recognize the right to cultural diversity as a fundamental right. At the same time, in multicultural societies there is the possibility that individuals from different cultures consider, as licit, behaviors that are criminally sanctioned by the law of the state. It is therefore discussed whether the cultural factors which conditioned the behavior of the defendant should be taken into account in the assessment of her/his criminal responsibility, both in immigration contexts and in those states where there are indigenous peoples. Focusing on the second case, the article aims to verify the feasibility and the desirability of two possible means of recognition of cultural differences in the criminal field: legal pluralism and the cultural defense. To this purpose, it considers the example of how these means are configured in the Mexican legal order. It then discusses, in a more general and theoretical perspective, the “technical” challenges posed – at the legal, institutional and even socio-anthropological level – both by the constitution of a regime of legal pluralism and by the use of the cultural defense in state courts. Finally, the most recurrent normative arguments for and against cultural pluralism in the criminal field are subjected to critical examination. The analysis leads to the conclusion that, although the identification of possible “advanced balances” between respect for cultural differences and the protection of fundamental rights in the criminal field is a difficult goal to achieve, it is not, however, impossible a priori. |

Al mismo tiempo, en las sociedades multiculturales existe la posibilidad de que individuos con culturas diferentes consideren, como lícitas, conductas sancionadas penalmente por el derecho estatal. Se discute, entonces, si los factores culturales que han condicionado la conducta del imputado deberían tener relevancia en la valoración de su responsabilidad penal, tanto en los contextos de inmigración como en aquellos Estados en los que hay pueblos indígenas. Centrándose en el segundo caso, el artículo quiere verificar la viabilidad y deseabilidad de dos posibles medios de reconocimiento de las diferencias culturales en el ámbito penal: el pluralismo jurídico y la defensa cultural. Para este propósito, se toma en consideración el ejemplo de cómo se configuran estos medios en el ordenamiento jurídico mexicano. Luego se discute, en una perspectiva más general y teórica, los “desafíos técnicos” que plantean – bajo el perfil jurídico, institucional y socio-antropológico – tanto la constitución de un régimen de pluralismo jurídico, como el recurso a la defensa cultural en los tribunales estatales. Finalmente, los argumentos normativos más recurrentes a favor y en contra del pluralismo cultural en el ámbito penal son sometidos a un examen crítico. El análisis lleva a la conclusión de que, aunque la identificación de posibles “equilibrios avanzados” entre respeto por las diferencias culturales y tutela de los derechos fundamentales en el ámbito penal es un objetivo difícil de alcanzar, no es, sin embargo, a priori imposible..Parolari, Paola2020-03-17info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.ufpr.br/direito/article/view/6700910.5380/rfdufpr.v64i3.67009Revista da Faculdade de Direito UFPR; v. 64, n. 3 (2019); 9-302236-72840104-331510.5380/rfdufpr.v64i3reponame:Revista da Faculdade de Direito UFPR (Online)instname:Universidade Federal do Paraná (UFPR)instacron:UFPRspahttps://revistas.ufpr.br/direito/article/view/67009/40424Direitos autorais 2020 Revista da Faculdade de Direito UFPRinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2020-03-17T14:33:31Zoai:revistas.ufpr.br:article/67009Revistahttp://ojs.c3sl.ufpr.br/ojs2/index.php/direitoPUBhttp://ojs.c3sl.ufpr.br/ojs/index.php/direito/oai||revistadireito@ufpr.br2236-72840104-3315opendoar:2020-03-17T14:33:31Revista da Faculdade de Direito UFPR (Online) - Universidade Federal do Paraná (UFPR)false |

Several national constitutions and international legal instruments recognize the right to cultural diversity as a fundamental right. At the same time, in multicultural societies there is the possibility that individuals from different cultures consider, as licit, behaviors that are criminally sanctioned by the law of the state. It is therefore discussed whether the cultural factors which conditioned the behavior of the defendant should be taken into account in the assessment of her/his criminal responsibility, both in immigration contexts and in those states where there are indigenous peoples. Focusing on the second case, the article aims to verify the feasibility and the desirability of two possible means of recognition of cultural differences in the criminal field: legal pluralism and the cultural defense. To this purpose, it considers the example of how these means are configured in the Mexican legal order. It then discusses, in a more general and theoretical perspective, the “technical” challenges posed – at the legal, institutional and even socio-anthropological level – both by the constitution of a regime of legal pluralism and by the use of the cultural defense in state courts.
