Abstract
Neste artigo s?o exploradas as narrativas dos inspetores da Pol¨ªcia Judici¨¢ria (PJ) relativamente aos processos de vigil?ncia e identifica??o de suspeitos de crime. Recorrendo a uma perspetiva te¨®rico-metodol¨®gica do tipo interpretativo e qualitativo, deseja-se mapear o sentido e compreender o significado que os inspetores da PJ atribuem ¨¤s suas pr¨¢ticas no decurso da investiga??o criminal. A aplica??o da ci¨ºncia e da tecnologia na investiga??o criminal exige uma reflex?o em torno dos impactos que estas acarretam. Apesar do potencial uso da ci¨ºncia e tecnologia na investiga??o criminal, confrontamo-nos com uma s¨¦rie de obst¨¢culos que nos demonstram os limites deste processo de cientifiza??o. As novas tecnologias de recolha e manuseamento de informa??o sobre suspeitos e condenados por crime complementam os meios tradicionais de investiga??o criminal, criando-se assim uma figura h¨ªbrida do detetive policial.
In this paper we explore the narratives of the Portuguese Criminal Investigation Police (Pol¨ªcia Judici¨¢ria) about surveillance and identification aimed at crime suspects. Through an interpretive and
qualitative theoretical-methodological perspective, we aim to understand the views of these agents concerning police practices of criminal investigation. The application of scientific knowledge and the
technology to criminal investigation requires a reflection of its impacts. Despite the potential use of science and technology in criminal investigation, we face a set of obstacles that shows the limits of this scientificization process. The new technologies of collection and use of information about suspects and convicted offenders complement the traditional means of criminal investigation, thus creating a hybrid figure of detective.
