O universo jurídico pode, em função disso, constituir um ambiente de experimentação teórica em torno do anacronismo. É essa a aposta deste artigo, desenvolvida sobre dois eixos. Primeiramente, são retomadas as reflexões de Yan Thomas a respeito do juiz e do historiador, para avaliar as operações simbólicas sobre o tempo que ocorrem no âmbito do direito, particularmente a partir da instaura- ção da imprescritibilidade dos crimes contra a humanidade no pós-Segunda Guerra Mundial. Em seguida, as possibilidades de aplicação do conceito de genocídio para momentos anteriores a essa conjuntura são avaliadas em diálogo com as reflexões de Bartolomé Clavero sobre a conquista da América. Na confluência dessas temá- ticas, busca-se sugerir que as relações com o direito, e especialmente as articulações com demandas por justiça e reparação, são fundamentais para a compreensão das historicidades contemporâneas.Universidade Federal de Uberlândia2022-06-13info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://seer.ufu.br/index.php/artcultura/article/view/6658210.14393/artc-v24-n44-2022-66582ArtCultura; Vol. 24 No. 44 (2022): ArtCultura; 117 - 133ArtCultura; Vol. 24 Núm. 44 (2022): ArtCultura; 117 - 133ArtCultura; v. 24 n. 44 (2022): ArtCultura; 117 - 1332178-3845reponame:ArtCultura (Online)instname:Universidade Federal de Uberlândia (UFU)instacron:UFUporhttps://seer.ufu.br/index.php/artcultura/article/view/66582/34423info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessde Moraes Silveira, Mariana2023-03-31T01:59:45Zoai:ojs.www.seer.ufu.br:article/66582Revistahttp://www.seer.ufu.br/index.php/artcultura/indexPUBhttps://seer.ufu.br/index.php/artcultura/oaiakparanhos@uol.com.br||2178-38452178-3845opendoar:2024-04-22T17:37:44.946078ArtCultura (Online) - Universidade Federal de Uberlândia (UFU)false
