Sistema jurídico, dogmática e efetividade: a expansão normativa no sistema jurídico, a classificação dogmática e a eficácia/efetividade do estatuto do desarmamento (nos homicídios), da Lei Maria da Penha (na violência contra a mulher) e da lei de drogas (no crime de tráfico)

Abstract

This research analyses the phenomenon of efficacy and effectiveness of Criminal Law, based on the discursive reconstruction and analysis of the desired (legal) objectives and the results achieved with the Disarmament Statute, the “Maria da Penha” Law and the Drug’s Statute. It investigates the dogmatic classification of these norms, specifically with focus on verifying the doctrinal position that points to the category denominated "Symbolic Criminal Law" and, consequently, to the law ineffectiveness in the social system. Thus, from a systemic standpoint, the work reconstructs, using the knowledge of criminology and criminal dogmatic, the nuclear characteristics of the phenomenon called "Symbolic Criminal Law". From this, it observes and analyses the dogmatic conclusion regarding the inefficacy of criminal norms with such characteristics, discussing the content of this concept and pointing out a change, for a category of legislative effectiveness. After, in order to scientifically test the framework adopted by criminal dogmatics, the research reconstructs the communication context in the political system, based on the presentation of the speeches and public manifestations of the President of the Republic and the members of the National Congress, in the moment of discussions and speeches involved in the creation and reception of the Disarmament Statute (2003), the “Maria da Penha” Law (2006) and the Drug’s Statute (2006) in the legal system. This information allows to discovery the desired social objectives for the creation of these laws, and permits testing the legislative impact on the social system, considering the normative effectiveness. Finally, considering these objectives, the research analyses the relevant statistical data mentioned in the communications of the political system and in the media (during the creating process of that legislative acts), as a mean of assessing whether these laws have achieved the intended objectives and, to the extent comparing their efficacy/effectiveness with each other. In this way, it is possible to give answers about dogmatic classification of these laws and about the achievement of social objectives.
