No. of bitstreams: 1 DissLCCB.pdf: 1486017 bytes, checksum: 244f8440b1a6e973392236fcc1bedc23 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2015-09-08 / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior (CAPES) / This dissertation aims to analyse the current mechanisms of interdiction of people with “mental illness” diagnosis from the understanding of the relationships between family, justice and psychiatric medicine, built during the legal process. Usually triggered by the family, the interdiction process aims to restrict the civil living acts of a person diagnosed with “mental illness” that characterizes the person as “incapable” from the medical and juridical point of view. With the interdiction sentenced by the judge, a guardian is indicated to be responsible for the goods and the life management of the person that was interdicted, who from this moment on has all his actions considered null for undetermined period. Besides, the interdiction has been used to attest the incapacity of the person to work in cases when the guardian requires a governmental assistance named “Benefício de Prestação Continuada” at the National Institute of Social Security (INSS from the Portuguese abbreviation), on behalf of the interdicted person. The intention, from detailing ethnographic fragments, is to promote the debate on the different meanings of the individual behaviors between the institutions, as well as the relationships between the different knowledges and actions, sometimes conflicting, promoted by this process. The intention is also to embrace moral and ethical questions present in legal, medical, and social speeches about behaviors framed as “symptoms” and “diseases” on the psychiatric knowledge and, because of the medical expertise, disabling from the juridical point of view, as well as its effects in the life of interdicted individuals and their families. / Essa dissertação tem o intuito de analisar os atuais mecanismos de interdição de pessoas com diagnóstico de “doença mental” a partir da compreensão sobre as relações entre família, justiça e psiquiatria tecidas durante o processo legal. Geralmente acionado pela família, o processo de interdição busca estabelecer restrições ao exercício dos atos da vida civil de um indivíduo diagnosticado com uma “doença mental” que o caracterize como “incapaz” do ponto de vista médico e jurídico. Com a interdição sentenciada pelo juiz, um curador é nomeado para responsabilizar-se pela administração dos bens e da vida do sujeito interditado passando este a ter todos seus atos considerados legalmente nulos por tempo indeterminado. Além disso, a interdição tem sido um recurso utilizado como comprovação da incapacidade do indivíduo para o trabalho em casos onde o curador requer o “Benefício de Prestação Continuada” junto ao Instituto Nacional de Seguro Social (INSS), em nome da pessoa interditada. Pretende-se então, a partir da exposição de trechos etnográficos, suscitar a discussão sobre a negociação de significados entre as instituições envolvidas assim como as relações entre os diferentes saberes e práticas, certas vezes conflitantes, ocasionadas por tal processo. O intuito é também contemplar questões morais e éticas presentes nos discursos legais, médicos e sociais sobre os comportamentos categorizados como “sintomas” e “doenças” pelo saber psiquiátrico e, em razão da avaliação da perícia médica, incapacitantes do ponto de vista jurídico, assim como os seus efeitos na vida dos indivíduos interditados e suas famílias.

Prohibée il y a deux siècles, l'assurance sur la vie est devenue le soutien principal de l'économie. Au carrefour de plusieurs domaines juridiques, son examen doit englober la famille du souscripteur et du bénéficiaire. Bien que, le plus souvent, le code des assurances ne tienne pas compte des rapports de famille, les règles relatives aux couples, aux héritiers et créanciers jouent. De même que s’appliquent le droit fiscal et celui des incapacités. De nos jours, l'assurance vie a un rôle clé dans le conseil patrimonial et la planification successorale. Différents types de contrats sur la vie humaine coexistent. De nouveaux contrats, comme les assurances en cas de vie, rentes et contrats en unités de compte, sont des véhicules d’épargne. Cette évolution a complètement renouvelé le marché. Deux catégories se dégagent. D'abord, les contrats de prévoyance sont destinés à fournir une somme au décès de l’assuré, comme les assurances temporaires décès et vie entière. Ensuite, les contrats de placement ont pour objectif principal la constitution d'un capital en payant une ou plusieurs primes ; ils sont l'activité centrale des assureurs. Cette étude vise à identifier l’influence de la variété des contrats sur le droit familial. Les articles L. 132-12 à 17 du code des assurances furent conçus pour les contrats en cas de décès. Il y a une contradiction flagrante dans l’application de ces règles aux nouveaux contrats, qui sont de purs outils d’épargne. Il était nécessaire d'analyser comment le code civil compense l'inadéquation du code des assurances. Des propositions ont été formulées pour adapter le régime juridique de l'assurance sur la vie à la grande diversité des contrats. / Prohibited two centuries ago, life insurance is now the mainstay of the Frencheconomy. At the crossroad of several legal areas, the study of life insuranceshould consider both the policy holder’s and the beneficiary’s families. Despite the fact that the French Insurance Code ignores, more often than not, familyrelationships, the legal rules applied to couples, heirs and creditors areinterfering with insurance law. So too do tax law and legal incapacities.Nowadays, life insurance plays a key-role in assets management and estateplanning. Several types of contracts are in use. New types of contracts, suchas universal life, annuities and unit-linked insurance plan, are savings vehicles.This evolution has completely renewed the life insurance market. Twocategories emerge among Life-based contracts. First, there are protection policies, which are designed to provide a benefit at the insured's death, such as term life and permanent life insurance. Investment policies are the second type. Their main objective is to facilitate the growth of a capital by paying single or flexible premiums ; they are the core activity of insurers. This study aims to assess the impact of this diverse range of contracts on family law. Articles L. 132-12 to 17 of the Insurance code were originally enacted to regulate term and permanent life insurance. It is a contradiction in terms to apply these provisions to the new types of contracts, which are pure savings vehicles. It was necessary to critically analyse how the Civil Code fills in the gaps left by the Insurance Code. Suggestions are made to adjust the legal regime to the wide diversity of life insurance contracts.
