Abstract
The goal of this paper is to explore the application of some elements of Charles S. Peirce's
semiotic phenomenology to the study of social discrimination. Using E. Valentine Daniel's
ideas about the "limits of culture" as a point of departure to understand the process of semeiosis,
this article argues that situations of social discrimination are a special case of the
phenomenon where the process through which percepts are transformed into (new) concepts
is incomplete. The distinctive element here is the fact that the process of social stigmatization
is only effective if capable of semiotically manipulating signs associated to group identities.
This manipulation reduces the semiotic complexity of the signs associated with whoever
is stigmatized. Susan Gal's three processes of semiotic manipulation, namely iconization,
recursiveness, and erasure, and Harold Garfinkel's work on degradation ceremonies will be
brought into analysis as relevant cases. Notas sobre a fenomenologia semiótica da discriminação social — O objetivo deste artigo é
explorar a aplicação de alguns elementos da fenomenologia semiótica de Charles S. Peirce no
estudo da discriminação social. Usando as ideias de E. Valentine Daniel a respeito dos "limites
da cultura" como ponto de partida, com o intuito de compreender o processo de semeiosis, este
artigo argumenta que situações de discriminação social são um caso especial do fenômeno em
que o processo por meio do qual percepções transformam-se em (novos) conceitos se dá de
modo incompleto. O elemento que faz deste um caso especial é o fato de que o processo de
estigmatização social só é efetivo se for capaz de manipular semioticamente signos associados
a identidades grupais. Essa manipulação reduz a complexidade semiótica dos signos associados
com quem é estigmatizado. Os três processos de manipulação semiótica propostos por Susan
Gal — iconização, recursividade, e apagamento (erasure) —, e o trabalho sobre cerimônias
de degradação de Harold Garfinkel, serão discutidos como casos relevantes.
