Uma análise do racismo colonial nas religiões afro-brasileiras sob a ótica criminológica crítica

Abstract

This present work aims to deconstruct traditional knowledge. Deconstruct, through decoloniality, the view of religions of African origins, from batuque to Umbanda, and especially the latter, and how its criminalization since Colonial Brazil is currently harming mystical practitioners and sympathizers with such. In this way, the general objective is to critically analyze, through the critical theory of human rights and the critical criminology produced in the periphery, how the prohibitions of cults and colonialism, through Eurocentrism, produce current prejudices and intolerance, in order to thinking along the way how to overcome these (pre)concepts. The qualitative method is used, with the use of a bibliographic and documentary stage, analyzing so that we can achieve the proposed objective.
