Com lenço e sem documento: identidades, ideário e relações familiares na luta e repressão política a Juventude Universitária Católica

Abstract

This thesis is inserted on the line ‘Family and Society’, and investigates the Catholic University Youth – JUC - movement of significant action between the Totalitarianism and Democracy brasilian, with eyes on its history, identity, ideology and praxis which have defined their participation between 1930 and 1964. The approach is based on phenomenological hermeneutics ricoeuriana, anchored in the Social History and the method of historical study, empirical and qualitative. Semi-structured questionnaires were applied to a total of 30 people, recognised as jucists, privileging diversity on academic formation. The research shows the JUC as an expressive movement of the youth in those years, formed between the socio-religious militancy, conceptualised within the context of renewal of the Church - the one ot neo christianity and the University which gave them amalgamed identities between the catholic philosophy and interaction with other university social movements. This dynamic enabled the group shares a fight between Catholic identity and revolutionary practice, resulting in the Popular Action (AP). It was then that the group protruded beyond an organized social movement in advancing its ideology, assuming the identity of the fight, experiencing the Coup of 1964 which is established in the country in an atmosphere of tension and political repression, when the family acts as protective of its members.
