Resumo: | This paper presents some reflections on the ongoing postdoctoral research entitled “Driven by passion”: gender, race and class in the Angela Davis’ criminal process, that aims to investigate a case of subjectivity production of a female offender by the criminal justice system. By means of the case study strategy, we develop an empirical work of qualitative nature with the use of documental analysis of the criminal procedure in which Angela Davis was prosecuted for kidnapping, homicide and conspiracy by The California Department of Justice in 1972. We aim to comprehend the discursive and performative operations of transforming an icon, an intellectual black feminist, at that time already a Ph.D. in Philosophy, into a “woman driven by passion”. Inspired by black feminist epistemology I propose the strategy of the single case study to think of class, race, and gender social markers articulated in the criminal process of Angela Davis as significant also in other experiences in the criminal justice system. In the end, I seek to portray how Angela Davis's experience with criminal justice and her account of it in the double acussed-author can contribute to the discussion of the processes of criminalization and black female subjectivation, placing this research in a wider debate about the relations of gender, race, class and law, which seems to us a necessary and promising horizon for the Brazilian legal and criminological field. |

Trata-se de um trabalho empírico de natureza qualitativa com uso de análise documental, com o objetivo de compreender a operação discursiva e performática de transformar um ícone- uma intelectual feminista negra, àquela altura já doutora em filosofia- em uma “mulher movida pela paixão”. Inspirada pela epistemologia feminista negra proponho a estratégia do estudo de caso único para pensar os marcadores sociais de classe, raça e gênero articulados no processo criminal de Angela Davis como significativos também em outras experiências no sistema de justiça criminal. Ao final, busco retratar como a experiência de Angela Davis com a justiça criminal e o relato dela sobre a mesma, no duplo ré-autora, pode contribuir na discussão dos processos de criminalização e subjetivação feminina negra, situando esta pesquisa em um debate mais amplo acerca das relações de gênero, raça, classe e direito, o qual nos parece um horizonte necessário e promissor para o campo jurídico e criminológico brasileiro.Universidade do Oeste de Santa Catarina, UNOESC2019-12-12info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionAvaliado por Paresapplication/pdftext/htmlhttps://periodicos.unoesc.edu.br/espacojuridico/article/view/1926210.18593/ejjl.19262Espaço Jurídico Journal of Law [EJJL]; Bd. 20 Nr. 2 (2019): Espaço Juridico Journal of Law [EJJL]; 435-448Espaço Jurídico Journal of Law [EJJL]; Vol. 20 No. 2 (2019): Espaço Juridico Journal of Law [EJJL]; 435-448Espaço Jurídico Journal of Law [EJJL]; Vol. 20 Núm. 2 (2019): Espaço Juridico Journal of Law [EJJL]; 435-448Espaço Jurídico Journal of Law [EJJL]; Vol. 20 No. 2 (2019): Espaço Juridico Journal of Law [EJJL]; 435-448Espaço Jurídico Journal of Law [EJJL]; v. 20 n. 2 (2019): Espaço Juridico Journal of Law [EJJL]; 435-4482179-79431519-5899reponame:Revista Espaço Jurídico/Espaço Jurídico Journal of Lawinstname:Universidade do Oeste de Santa Catarina (UNOESC)instacron:UNOESCporhttps://periodicos.unoesc.edu.br/espacojuridico/article/view/19262/13510https://periodicos.unoesc.edu.br/espacojuridico/article/view/19262/14072Copyright (c) 2019 Ana Gabriela Mendes Bragainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessBraga, Ana Gabriela Mendes2020-10-16T20:18:56Zoai:ojs.periodicos.unoesc.edu.br:article/19262Revistahttps://portalperiodicos.unoesc.edu.br/espacojuridico/indexhttp://editora.unoesc.edu.br/index.php/espacojuridico/oaieditora@unoesc.edu.br||ejjl@unoesc.edu.br2179-79431519-5899opendoar:2020-10-16T20:18:56Revista Espaço Jurídico/Espaço Jurídico Journal of Law - Universidade do Oeste de Santa Catarina (UNOESC)false |
