About

In this seminar we intend to present a study on the issue of crime in Brazil as a phenomenon with multiple dimensions: historical, political, institutional, media, producing effects on the processes of subjectivation. Considering fear as the main phenomenon related to these processes, we seek to understand it from the Spinoza's theory of affects, in a transdisciplinary perspective.
