Abstract

DE SOUZA, Karine et al. The Banalization of Evil and the Representation of Adolescent Discourses in Combating Bullying. NTQR [online]. 2021, vol.7, pp.172-180.  Epub Nov 23, 2021. ISSN 2184-7770.  https://doi.org/10.36367/ntqr.7.2021.172-180.

This work is an outline of the productions and actions of the Humanities and Contemporary Society Research Group of IFMT, with the objective of identifying emancipated as well as oppressed speeches about bullying. The qualitative methodology was adopted and the data collection was carried out through a questionnaire with objective and subjective questions, the same was applied online through the use of google forms, it is composed of 13 questions (11 objective and 2 subjective). For this study, an analysis was made of the responses of 01 educational institution, which had the participation of 73 high school students, of this number only 40 students answered the question: Do you have a suggestion to end bullying? The collected data were analyzed through Critical Discourse Analysis (ADC), showing the identification of language as an essential component of everyday life that dialectically connects to other social elements. Hannah Arendt's contributions on the banality of evil were used as a theoretical contribution to understand the dynamics of the perpetuation of violence as an act of depoliticization of man. As a result, the students' responses translate the symbolic discourses found in the school context, with responses that suggest a critical view on the occurrence of bullying in their daily lives, but also with responses that reproduce violence and oppression of victims as well as aggressors. Corroborating with the critical sense of ADC, Arendt's concept of the banality of evil complemented the analysis of students' hate speech in the face of bullying situations and provided opportunities for reflections in order to foster emancipatory dialogues through the awareness of society's problems.
