Nossa perspectiva teórica se inspira: (1) no pensamento de Bourdieu e Champagne acerca da exclusão operacionalizada no campo escolar em seus diversos níveis, mais especificamente no ensino universitário; (2) nas definições de Goffman sobre processo de estigmatização, destacando sua categoria de excluídos potenciais; (3) e na dicotomia estabelecidos e outsiders de Elias e Scotson para pensar os processos e efeitos da estigmatização por eles também focalizados. Analisamos os mecanismos de diferenciação, empoderamento, hierarquização, exclusão e estigma e seus efeitos nas trajetórias de estudantes da referida modalidade. A metodologia da pesquisa incluiu a análise dos documentos em que se encontra formalizado o modelos de EAD da UFPB e a elicitação de narrativas das experiências de uma amostra intencional de estudantes, selecionada a partir da acessibilidade e disposição para participar do processo de coleta de dados. Dentre as conclusões do trabalho, destacamos as seguintes: (1) das trajetórias narradas nas histórias de vida demonstram o peso da origem social nas escolhas dos cursos superiores; (2) a hierarquização dos cursos e modalidade permanece forte e gera processos de estigmatização; e (3) o ingresso dos estudantes de classes populares às universidades não eliminam às desigualdades socioeducacionais. / The objective of this research is to study narratives of students involved in distance learning (EAD) in the state of Paraiba, Brazil, focusing on their experiences of school inclusion and social exclusion. Our theoretical perspective is inspired by: (1) Bourdieu and Champagne's thinking about the operationalized exclusion in the school field at its various levels, more specifically in university education; (2) Goffman's definitions of the process of stigmatization, highlighting its category of potential excluded; (3) and in the established dichotomy and outsiders of Elias and Scotson to think about the processes and effects of stigmatization they also focus on. We will analyze the mechanisms of differentiation, empowerment, hierarchy, exclusion and stigma and their effects on the trajectories of students of this modality. The research methodology included the analysis of the documents in which the EADS models of the UFPB are formalized and the elicitation of narratives of the experiences of an intencional sample of UFPB/EAD‟ students, selected from the accessibility and willingness to participate in the data collection process. Among the main conclusions of this work we point out the following ones: (1) the trajectories narrated in life histories demonstrate the weight of social origin in the choices of higher courses; (2) the hierarchy of courses and modality remains strong and generates stigmatization processes; and (3) the entry of students from popular classes to universities does not eliminate socio-educational inequalities.

Uppsatsen syftar till att undersöka och analysera hur personer i gängkriminella miljöer konstrueras samt positioneras i den nyhetsmediala samhällsdebatten om gängkriminalitet i Sverige genom att studera publicerade debattartiklar från en specifik tidsperiod. Studien utgår från ett kritiskt diskursanalytiskt perspektiv som menar att verkligheten formas och tolkas genom språkliga diskurser, varför valda analysverktyg har ett lingvistiskt fokus där texternas lexikala aspekter undersöks, liksom deras anspråk på gängkriminalitetens orsaker och lösningar. Vidare analyseras debattartiklarnas innehåll genom ett socialkonstruktionistiskt perspektiv på de skildringar och identiteter som görs, samt utifrån teorier om stigmatiseringsprocesser och avvikarkarriärer Även själva fördelningen mellan debattörer samt presenterade perspektiv i debatten analyseras i relation till sociala makthierarkier. Uppsatsens resultat visar på att personer i gängkriminella miljöer främst tenderar att reduceras till deras kriminella egenskap i debatten, vilket konstruerar personerna som avvikare och förövare i samhället på sätt som stundtals får avhumaniserande effekter. I vissa fall nämns även personernas unga ålder samt icke-svenska etnicitet, vilket främst motiverar till förslag på ökade disciplinära åtgärder mot unga samt personer som saknar medborgarskap. Vidare präglas en stor del av debatten av ett fokus gentemot polisiära resurser och skärpta straff, vilket verkar osynliggörande för gängkriminalitetens bakomliggande sociala faktorer samt det sociala arbetets betydelse. Detta får även konsekvenser för personernas sörjbarhet samt ansedda rätt till sociala stödinsatser som fokuserar på förändring. I de fall sociala aspekter faktiskt diskuteras i debatten tenderar en sorts osynlig tröskel skapas mellan ”den unga som sörjbar” och ”den kriminella som straffbar” – vilket möjliggör till att vidmakthålla identiteterna "offer" och "förövare" i skildringarna på ett sätt som gör att problemets komplexitet undviks. / The purpose of this study is to investigate and analyze how people within gang criminal environments is constructed and positioned in news media’s social debate about gang criminality in Sweden by studying published debate articles from a specific time period. The study is based on a critical discourse analytical perspective on reality as shaped and interpreted by linguistic discourses, why selected analysis tools has a linguistic aim that investigate the texts lexical aspects, as their claims on causes and solutions of gang crime. Furthermore the debate articles are analyzed through a social constructionist perspective on the descriptions and identities that is made, and also by theories about stigmatization processes and deviant careers. The division between debaters and represented perspectives is also analyzed in relation to social hierarchies of power. The result of the study shows that people in gang criminal environments mainly tend to be reduced to their criminal quality, which constructs them as deviants and perpetrators by ways that sometimes have dehumanizing effects. In some cases the persons young age and non-swedish ethnicity is mentioned, which mainly justifies proposals for increased disciplinary actions against youths and people without swedish citizenship. Further, the debate is characterized by a focus towards police resources and increased penalties which tend to overshadow the underlying social factors of gang crime and the importance of social work. This has consequences for their considered worth of sympathy and rights to social support that focuses on change. When social aspects is discussed it tends to create a invisible gap between ”the youth worthy of sympathy” and ”the punishable criminal” – which enable to maintain the identities of “victims” and “perpetrators” in a way that avoids the complexity of the problem.
