FAMILIAR CONSTELLATION AND THE PROMOTION OF THE ECONOMY OF FEAR: ANOTHER OF THE MANY FORMS OF VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMAN

Abstract

In this article, concept, origins and structure of the family constellations are analyzed, a therapy disclosed by Bert Hellinger. It is evidenced, nonetheless, the link between family constellations and parental alienation, elements of a block of measures that perpetuate violences practiced against women. The sexist nature of the theory and its intention to nullify the protective system of the vulnerables provided by the Federal Constitution and materialized in the Statute of Children and Adolescents, as well as in the Maria da Penha Law, is underlined.
The scientificity of the technique here debated is also put into discussion, followed by the exposition of the central theory as proposed by Hellinger himself. At this point, without filters and without decontextualizations, excerpts from Hellinger’s extensive work are transcribed, confirming the hypotheses initially launched. Finally, the actions of the SUS regarding the financing of pseudoscience are challenged, as well as the legitimacy of the Judiciary in its application in justice courts.
