(Universidade Católica do Salvador, 2020-04-29) Andrade, Manuela Dinalva de Jesus de; Goulart, Maria Cristina Vianna; http://lattes.cnpq.br/
This article aims to investigate and present possible contributions of Restorative Justice in the field of intrafamily child sexual violence. The practice of sexual abuse involving children is a growing reality in the country, being considered a serious public health problem that brings irreversible damage to the victims' lives. In order to better understand this phenomenon, this work sought to achieve a synthesis of how the conception of childhood was socially and historically constructed; then, child sexual violence was characterized, discussing the concepts, consequences and the look of Psychology in the face of this phenomenon, through the psychoanalytic approach. Later, the principles of Restorative Justice and the contribution of this modality of justice in sexual crimes where the victims are children were added. The study pointed out the inexistence of the use of Restorative Justice in the cases of sexual abuse of children in Brazil, however it exposed experiences in the international scope, that are being little by little propagated, with the intention to extend the debates on the subject and to foment the elaboration of proposals that improve this practice in the country.
