O Congresso Nacional entre o “mýthos” e o “lógos”: religião e corrupção sistêmica no cenário político brasileiro
description
Religion, in its origin, arises to explain the transcendent, the mythos; while science deals with truths, therefore, the logos. Because of this function, religion played an important role in the construction of societies, with a very extensive field of activity. Since Modernity, there has been a gradual loss of relevance given to the Church, undermining its influence over different social systems. In Brazil, within the discourse of Brazilian public institutions, more specifically, in the political system, religion still occupies a privileged space. Within this old problem, the corruption of the systemic code persists, with its fragility and loss of credibility in organizations. The big question that needs answers is: is it possible to guarantee a political filter that breaks with the systemic corruption perpetrated within the framework of Brazilian political organizations? This article aims at explaining this social problem, from the perspective of Niklas Luhmann’s systems theory, in order to reconstruct the social role of religion, taking as a paradigm the short story El Aleph by Argentinian writer Jorge Luis Borges. Likewise, it aims at reflecting on the secularizing movement, identifying the risks related to the systemic corruption of politics and, finally, pointing out the role of religion in contemporary times. As a result, it is noted that systemic corruption undermines democracy, and that process must be reversed.

Por causa dessa função, a religião exerceu importante papel na construção das sociedades, com campo de atuação bastante extenso. Desde a modernidade, houve a perda gradativa da relevância da igreja, minando sua influência nos demais sistemas sociais. No Brasil, no âmbito do discurso das instituições públicas brasileiras, mais especificamente, no sistema político, a religião ainda ocupa espaço privilegiado. Nesse velho problema, persiste a corrupção do código sistêmico, com a respectiva fragilidade e perda de credibilidade nas organizações. A grande pergunta que se busca responder é: há possibilidade de se garantir um filtro na política, que rompa com a corrupção sistêmica perpetrada no âmbito das organizações políticas brasileiras? Este artigo objetiva explicitar esse problema social, na perspectiva da teoria dos sistemas de Niklas Luhmann, de forma a reconstruir o papel social da religião, tomando como paradigma o conto O Aleph, de Jorge Luis Borges. Igualmente, visa a refletir sobre o movimento secularizante, identificar os riscos relacionados à corrupção sistêmica da política e, por fim, apontar o papel da religião na contemporaneidade. Como resultado, observa-se que a corrupção sistêmica mina a democracia, devendo esse processo ser revertido.2017text (article)application/pdfhttps://dialnet.unirioja.es/servlet/oaiart?codigo=6255930(Revista) ISSN 2446-8088Anamorphosis: Revista Internacional de Direito e Literatura, ISSN 2446-8088, null 3, Nº. 2, 2017, pags. 465-487porLICENCIA DE USO: Los documentos a texto completo incluidos en Dialnet son de acceso libre y propiedad de sus autores y/o editores.
