| description | This study analyzes concepts related to violence in discourses in circulation. It is based on an analysis of discourses about the homicide of a pregnant young woman committed by the staff member of a police department in a poor neighborhood of Buenos Aires, Argentina.

Revealing that which is considered excessive, with exception, can help in the understand of that which is normally considered as violence. |
