Abstract

Throughout the construction of modern philosophical and political thought, several thinkers developed the concept that, with the scope of constituting organized, harmonious states and guided by legal certainty, primeval societies established terms and organized themselves under the aegis of a social pact. This precept was, in this perspective, responsible for delaying the enemy's natural production process, as well as for ensuring the development of the social body. However, the analysis of the contemporary scenario, suggests the existence of States that are not interested in ensuring the essence of the pact to the subjects directly tutored, either by actions contrary to this premise, either by the incapacity of the State or by deliberate omission, which identifies highlighted the refugee condition. In the meantime, the present article, which uses literature review as a method, aims to highlight the crisis of the social contract from the perspective of the institute of refuge, establishing connections in modern political science, through the reading of the concept of geography of rage. The main contribution of this text is the foundation of a humanitarian perception, in which the institute of refuge, in itself, represents a nefarious rupture of the most basic parameters of sociability. In the end, it is noted that the understanding of the refugee as a character of a violated agreement is an elementary notion for the projection of policies and strategies for the inclusion and promotion of human rights.
