%T Navegando entre narraciones: voces que construyen y socavan la credibilidad en el ámbito jurídico %A Cubells Serra, Jenny %J Athenea Digital: Revista de Pensamiento e Investigacion Social %N 8 %P 109-128 %D 2005 %K Legal System %= 2009-11-04T14:30:00Z %> https://nbn-resolving.org/urn:nbn:de:0168-ssoar-64564 %X The article argues that judicial narratives, produced in & out of the courtroom in order to represent real-world events, are biased toward presenting the judicial process as being objective, impartial, & trustworthy, while censoring narratives that oppose this bias. Supporting data is provided by interviews with professionals in the legal field as well as two former prisoners & their family members. The discussion views the justice system as a form of social practice that does not differ from other social practices, in the sense that the justice system is nothing more than a social construction. This approach has allowed the researchers to demystify the judicial world by locating it within the human sphere, thus stripping the justice system of the quasi-divine character that has been conferred upon it by society. %C ESP %G es %9 journal article %W GESIS - http://www.gesis.org %~ SSOAR - http://www.ssoar.info
