Crimes estatais-corporativos e violações de direitos humanos: um ensaio sobre a relação simbiótica entre Estados e corporações
Conteúdo do artigo principal
Resumo
Nesse ensaio buscamos ampliar a compreensão dos crimes estatais-corporativos que violam direitos humanos por meio de uma aproximação da literatura do crime-estatal corporativo com campo dos estudos organizacionais. Argumentamos que crimes corporativos violadores de direitos humanos são (re)produzidos com a participação do Estado, em função das lacunas de governança estabelecidas pela globalização, criando uma relação simbiótica que potencializa a normalização de tais infrações. Nossa argumentação é a de que tal problema resulta de uma articulação deliberadamente organizada e constituída, historicamente, por meio de relações de poder, que visam garantir uma ordem social centrada na manutenção dos interesses capitalistas, modo de produção em que vida, morte e violência são normalizadas.
