From street soldiers to political soldiers”
Historical evidence points to the fact that extreme right-wing (ERW) violence has not always been prosecuted under terrorism legislation, but under various other criminal statutes. In Portugal, since the regulation of terrorism in the general Criminal Code in 1982, which was then replaced by counterterrorism (CT) legislation in 2003, there have been five terrorism convictions. However, none was related to ERW violence, despite the existence of nu…
Entre a maioridade penal e a menoridade civil
This study aims to examine the perceptions of professionals working in the judicial field regarding pre-trial detention of youths under 18 years of age. For that purpose, 17 professionals were interviewed. The data analysis showed that in the professionals’ view the measure of pre-trial detention can be a positive factor when the security of society is taken into account; however, it can be a negative factor when only the young offender is taken …

Police officers’ perspectives on state (police) violence
This paper comprises a theoretical and empirical incursion into the phenomenon of state violence, namely police violence. Although extensively explored in different perspectives within and outside academia, police violence is complex and has not been sufficiently problematized yet. In our understanding, this phenomenon requires a dialectical and dynamic discussion wherein both the development of state powers (macro-perspective) and how these powe…
Public protest and police violence
In recent years, in Portugal, public demonstrations of movements such as ‘Que se Lixe a Troika: Queremos as NossasVidas de Volta’ and ‘Geração à Rasca’ have led to police repression highly scrutinized by mass media. However, a specific understanding is still lacking as to how police officers and civil society are construing the repression of this kind of event and also as to how moral agency is thereof inhibited. To police officers (as ‘power-hol…
A Psicologia da Paz
No presente artigo é feito o enquadramento histórico e concetual da Psicologia da Paz (Peace Psychology). Esta área tem como objetivo a aplicação dos conhecimentos e métodos da Psicologia à prevenção dos conflitos e à promoção dos direitos humanos e da paz. O enfoque da Psicologia nestas temáticas emergiu em pleno contexto de Guerra Fria, quando as preocupações com a hipótese de uma guerra nuclear ser desencadeada levaram alguns psicólogos a cont…
Cidadãos estrangeiros em Portugal
Neste artigo são analisados três temas de elevada relevância social: 1) a evolução histórica dos fluxos migratórios em Portugal; 2) a construção social da figura do 'imigrante'; 3) a evolução, na última década, dos números e características da população de nacionalidade estrangeira no contexto prisional português. Embora historicamente se associe imigração e crime, a investigação recente não evidencia tal relação e revela que os imigrantes podem …
Discursos sociais sobre a violência de Estado
Assistimos, na actualidade, a uma crescente preocupação com o papel das políticas de acção dos governos na perpetuação de ciclos de violência. No entanto, a violência de Estado (da guerra à tortura, ou à violência policial) foi, até recentemente, um tema negligenciado pela comunidade criminológica(Aas, 2007; Young, 2007). O presente estudo visa conhecer a real extensão da tolerância e legitimação da violência de Estado por parte dos cidadãos comu…
