A concepção de direito nas publicações de serviço social: uma análise crítica

Abstract

The purpose of this dissertation is to explore, through critical analysis of the literature, the way that the concept of Law has been applied to the publications of the Social Work. Therefore, it aims to verify whether the category used a critical approach towards the subject, or whether it was limited to common sense or a conservative approach. The rescues of Marx‘s debate regarding these Law and the Marxist debate by Pasukanis and Poulantzas were also performed. Bibliographical research was conducted through the CAPES electronic databases using doctorate theses from UFRJ and PUC-SP, and also through the journals Serviço Social & Sociedade and Revista Katálysis, between 2010 and 2013, depending on the type of publication. It was identified that the publications have taken a critical debate with regards to the concept of Law despite its fundamentals being quite fragile, with few exceptions. Also, significant quantities of publications were considered acritical to the concept of Law, considering it to be natural and eternal, restricted to its phenomenal appearance.
