| description | This article explores the emotions of users and functionaries involved in the justice system and the administration of justice in Cali, Colombia. The analysis presented argues that the state not only employs a bureaucratic rational language but also invokes emotions and feelings. In this sense, it is not only the central imaginaries of the state justice system and judicial processes but also the idea of justice itself that is marked by tediousness, delay and chaos, imaginaries of the system that were identified by the users and the officials involved in the administration of the system. There is no justice if it is not a process that is tedious, marked by ritual, mysticism, disorder and difficulties. These findings demonstrate that, against liberal discourses that emphasize the order, unity and rationality of public actions, that the power of the state actually operates through the disaggregated, the irrational and the emotional, a much wider and inexplicable framework. |

This article explores the emotions of users and functionaries involved in the justice system and the administration of justice in Cali, Colombia. The analysis presented argues that the state not only employs a bureaucratic rational language but also invokes emotions and feelings. In this sense, it is not only the central imaginaries of the state justice system and judicial processes but also the idea of justice itself that is marked by tediousness, delay and chaos, imaginaries of the system that were identified by the users and the officials involved in the administration of the system. There is no justice if it is not a process that is tedious, marked by ritual, mysticism, disorder and difficulties.

El artículo explora las emociones de usuarios y funcionarios respecto a los procesos de administración de justicia en Cali, Colombia, y propone que el estado no remite únicamente a un lenguaje burocrático racional, sino también a sentimientos. De esta manera, no solo los imaginarios centrales que describen los procesos judiciales estatales sino la idea propia de justicia están marcados por sensaciones de tedio, demora y caos, descriptores que son identificados tanto por usuarios como por empleados judiciales. No hay justicia si esta no es demorada, ritual, mística, desordenada, difícil. Estos hallazgos evidencian que, al contrario de lo que ocurre en los discursos liberales que enfatizan el orden, la unidad y la racionalidad de las acciones públicas, el poder del estado encuentra en lo desagregado, lo irracional y lo emotivo un marco más amplio para ser explicado. O artigo explora as emoções de usuários e funcionários referentes aos processos da administração da justiça em Cali, Colômbia, e propõe que o Estado não remite unicamente a uma linguagem burocrática-racional, senão também a sentimentos. Desta maneira, não só os imaginários centrais que descrevem os processos judiciais estatais senão a ideia própria de justiça estão marcados por sensações de tédio, demora e caos, descritores que são identificados tanto por usuários quanto por funcionários judiciais. Não há justiça se esta não for demorada, ritual, mística, desordenada, difícil. Estes resultados evidenciam que ao contrário dos discursos liberais que enfatizam a ordem, a unidade e a racionalidade das ações públicas, o poder do Estado encontra no desagregado, no irracional e no emotivo, um marco mais amplo para ser explicado.
