MORICONI, Marcelo. The social unrest and the victim-accomplice. Polis [online]. 2009, vol.5, n.1, pp.115-142. ISSN 2594-0686.

The paper includes a revision of the role of ideas and good judgement in the social and political imaginaries construction. It proposes the use of complex thinking to examine the symbolic reality. It seeks to settle a meaning of politics that goes beyond the institutional system and reaches the daily action of participation, by action or omission, in the legitimization of the ideas that determine what is do-able and what is just within a hegemonic social order. Tragic realism and the victim-accomplice logic come up as a proposition for rethinking the social unrest and its reproduction. An analysis of the contemporaneous social order narrative, and its fundamental axioms, shows that some social situations considered as unrest focus may be taken as inherent consequences of legitimated ideas.
