PEREIRA, Luís. Violência, ética e religião. Diacrítica [online]. 2015, vol.29, n.2, pp.149-164. ISSN 0807-8967.

Violence, especially in a literary reading, is a difficult concept to define for itself. The notion may also be decline in extremely diverse empirical fields. Violence can qualify a multitude of objects, from storms to amorous passion. But the most significant is when we talk about violence, we already know what it is. Ricoeur's perspetive of violence inhabits the intersection between ethics and morality; because it is here that emerges the need of accomplishing life go through the empire of norm, under the aegis of the obligation. Violence also extends to all praxis levels, especially the political, and the human belief in religion. But if this violence, more than an instinct or an aggressive impulse, was not the manifestation, as René Girard believes, of antagonism between humans, because of a mimetic desire. Perhaps the religious myths and sacrificial rituals are nothing more than collective propitiation that through the election of a scapegoat, exorcise this deconstructive rivalry and briefly appease the community.

Palavras-chave : Violence; ethics; religion; Ricoeur; Girard.
