Práticas sequenciais de negociação em interrogatórios policiais da Delegacia de Repressão a Crimes Contra a Mulher

Abstract

This dissertation will attempt to describe sequential practices of negotiation led by the police officer in the police inquiries at an All-Female Police Station. The methodological and theoretical references to map the practices sequentially are based on the Conversation Analysis Ethnomethodology. The sequential practices of negotiation were organized in series and locally built with the interaction of five police inquiries. It will be considered that the police officer performs extra activities besides their major task of inquiring - in strict sensu - as a negotiation practice. The analysis will attempt to validate which sequential practices of negotiation are performed by the police officer, and what is negotiated in the work environment. Based on the aforementioned theories, a synthesis of the practices performed by the police officer to solve conflicts and take decisions will be depicted. This study will show that sequential practices of negotiation may contribute to the police officers' consideration of their own acts in the work environment, once they do not work only as investigators. They receive other functions besides trying to resolve the victim's family's problems, for instance, and also improve their interaction within the All-Female Police Station institutional environment in order to serve the population with more quality.
