Abstract:
Este trabalho pretende investigar algumas das relações que se estabelecem, no campo religioso brasileiro, entre umbanda e Igreja Universal do Reino de Deus (IURD). Para além do discurso demonizador neopentecostal, que classifica as religiões afrobrasileiras como \"coisa do diabo\", acredito haver diversas trocas simbólicas entre essas denominações que, a princípio, parecem tão distantes. A etnografia estará estruturada de forma a mostrar, inicialmente, o funcionamento interno desses dois sistemas religiosos - atentando para suas cosmologias e estruturas rituais. Em seguida, será abordado o intenso intercâmbio simbólico que se estabelece entre eles. Será dedicada especial atenção a determinados símbolos que são fundamentais para compreender o relacionamento dessas religiões: os exus e as pombagiras são os melhores exemplos. Finalmente, serão discutidas questões que poderiam ser consideradas mais \"espinhosas\" no que diz respeito ao relacionamento entre umbanda e IURD: notadamente, as polêmicas sobre a intolerância e o preconceito no campo religioso brasileiro.
This work intends to investigate some of the relations that have been established, in the Brazilian religious field, between Umbanda and the Universal Church of The Kingdoom of God. Beyond the neopentecostal accusations of devilishness, that set Afro-Brazilian religions as \"devil-like\", I believe there are some symbolic exchange between these two religions that, at first, seem so far apart. The ethnography is set in a way to display, initially, the internal working of these two religious systems - looking into their cosmologies and ritual structures. Then, the intense exchanges set between them will be approached. Specific attention will be given to particular symbols that are crucial to understand the relationship of these religions: the exus and the pombagiras are the best examples. Finally, some questions concerning the relationship between Umbanda and the Universal Church that could be considered more \"delicate\" will be discussed: the polemics about intolerance and prejudice in the field of religion in Brazil.

Every year, the significant presence of evangelicals in Brazil has been the subject of registration not only of IBGE, but also of the most varied researches on religion in the country. The Pentecostal movement, as one of these movements, presents a considerable representativeness, not only for its quantity, but also for its area of action and influence. Unsurprisingly the study of Pentecostalism accomplished by different Brazilian researchers is highlighting the changes in which the movement has passed for the last two decades. Those stereotypes built over the years that Pentecostals were ascetic and separated from the world; they were losing power in the last decades of this century. With a considerable number of followers, about four million faithful, Assembly of God in Brazil, as the maximum representative of Pentecostalism, is the church that seemed to pass for more latent transformations in its way of acting and living in the world. This creates among its followers generational conflicts between those who desire and want changes and those who fight for the maintenance of tradition. It is not new in these religious movements, as in Assembly of God, the presence of young people in their ranks of members as something recurrent. The present research aims to understand the role of youth in this process of change that Assembly of God has been passing in the last years. The proposition is to analyze how the young people receive the institutional religious discourse and how they resignify them daily. For this, different authors of religion in Brazil and the sociology of youth will be used.
A cada ano, a presença significativa de evangélicos no Brasil tem sido objeto de registro não apenas do IBGE, como das mais variadas pesquisas sobre religião no país. O movimento pentecostal, como um desses movimentos, apresenta uma representatividade considerável, não apenas pela sua quantidade, como também pela sua área de atuação e influência. Não é novidade que os estudos sobre o pentecostalismo realizados por diferentes pesquisadores brasileiros vêm destacando as transformações pelas quais o movimento passou nas últimas duas décadas. Aqueles estereótipos construídos ao longo dos anos de que os pentecostais eram ascéticos e separados do mundo foram perdendo espaços nas últimas décadas deste século. Com número considerável de adeptos, que beiram os quatro milhões de fiéis, a Assembleia de Deus no Brasil, como representante máxima do pentecostalismo, é a igreja que aparenta ter passado por transformações mais latentes em sua forma de ver mundo. O que gera entre seus adeptos conflitos geracional entre aqueles que desejam e querem mudanças e aqueles que lutam pela manutenção da tradição. Não é novidade nestes movimentos religiosos, como na Assembleia de Deus, a presença de jovens em suas fileiras de membros como algo recorrente. A presente pesquisa procura compreender o papel da juventude neste processo de mudanças pelo qual a Assembleia de Deus tem passado nos últimos anos. A proposta é analisar de que forma os jovens recebem o discurso religioso institucional e como eles o ressignificam no dia a dia. Para isso, serão utilizados diferentes autores da religião no Brasil e da sociologia da juventude.

Abstract:
Em 2014, uma carta dirigida pelo papa Francisco à Pontifícia Academia de Ciências em que ele declarava que as teorias do Big Bang e da evolução não contradiziam o Gênesis foi noticiada em tom de surpresa por diferentes veículos de comunicação, refletindo a ideia solidificada no senso comum de que há um conflito necessário entre Igreja e ciência. Com o objetivo de contribuirmos para a desmistificação desta ideia, ao menos no que tange à cosmologia, analisamos o histórico da relação entre a Igreja Católica, a astronomia e a cosmologia desde a antiguidade até o século XXI, além do histórico de como ciência e religião se constituíram em campos diversos do saber humano. Indo de encontro à posição defendida nas últimas décadas pela historiografia das ciências, de que não há um conflito necessário entre ciência e religião, notamos que a tendência da Igreja Católica é a de posicionar-se favoravelmente aos paradigmas dominantes em cada época. Percebendo-se que a Igreja se posicionou favoravelmente à teoria do Big Bang enquanto esta ainda não tinha se consolidado como paradigma e concorria com teorias rivais, como a do Estado Estacionário, traçamos um panorama do desenvolvimento da cosmologia europeia, dos antigos gregos ao século XXI, na tentativa de compreender não só o desenvolvimento desta ciência, mas de que maneira o Big Bang acabou por se tornar o paradigma do campo e por que se mostrou uma teoria interessante para a Igreja Católica. Analisamos então o histórico, os regimentos, as publicações e as biografias dos membros da Pontifícia Academia de Ciências e do Observatório do Vaticano, além dos pronunciamentos papais feitos a esta Academia, na tentativa de entender de que maneira os cientistas destas instituições influenciam os posicionamentos dos papas sobre cosmologia entre 1936 (ano de fundação da Academia) e 2014, percebendo que as discussões promovidas nos encontros destes estudiosos contribuem para oferecer legitimidade às falas papais sobre ciência, bem como aos posicionamentos da Igreja sobre o assunto. Percebemos também que, no último século, a Igreja Católica se esforçou por reforçar, por meio de seus canais oficiais, a ideia de que mantém relação harmônica com a ciência e contribui para seu desenvolvimento, e investe na Academia e no Observatório como meio de reforçar tais posições, num contexto de laicização do mundo político e acadêmico ocidental, em que sua posição de autoridade moral e política é constantemente questionada e precisa ser defendida.
In 2014, a letter written by Pope Frank to the Pontifical Academy of Sciences, where he stated that the evolution and Big Bang theories do not contradict the book of Genesis, was taken by surprise by different means of communication, thus reflecting the common-sense idea that there is a necessary conflict between Church and science. With the purpose of contributing to demystify this idea, at least regarding cosmology, we have analyzed the relationship history among the Catholic Church, astronomy and cosmology up to the 21st century, besides the history as to how science and religion constituted themselves in various fields of human knowledge. By going against the position defended in the last decades by the historiography of sciences that there is a necessary conflict between science and religion, we noted that the trend of the Catholic Church is to position itself favorably to the dominant paradigms in each age. By confirming that the Church has positioned itself favorably to the Big Bang theory while it was still not consolidated as a paradigm, and competed with other theories such as Steady State, we traced an overview of the European cosmology development from ancient Greeks to the 21st century, in an attempt to understand not only the development of this science, but also how the Big Bang became the field paradigm, and why it became an interesting theory to the Catholic Church. Then we analyzed the history, the regiments, publications and biographies of members of the Pontifical Academy of Sciences and the Vatican Observatory, besides the papal pronouncements made to this Academy, in an attempt to understand how the scientists of these institutions influenced the Popes\' positions on cosmology between 1936 (year the Academy was founded) and 2014, where we noticed that the discussions promoted when these scholars met contribute to the legitimacy of the Popes\' speeches on science, as well as the Church\'s positions regarding this matter. We also noticed that, via its official channels throughout the last century, the Catholic Church sought to entrench the idea of keeping a harmonic relationship with science, contributing to its development, and investing in the Academy and the Observatory as a means to reinforce such positions, in a context of secularization of the Western political and academic world, where its position of political and moral authority is constantly questioned and needs to be defended.

Abstract:
This thesis is an assessment of interreligious dialogue in India developed as an approach to other religions in the context of exclusivist attitudes. While dialogue is important in such a context, nevertheless, in terms of its wider objectives of creating better relationships in society, it has some limitations which need to be addressed for it to be more effective in society. Studying the past 60 years of dialogue in India and undertaking field-research in south India, this thesis discusses three such limitations. Firstly, critiquing the notion of world-religion categories which is fundamental to dialogue, it argues that such categories are products of the western Enlightenment and colonialism leading to framing colonised people’s identities largely in terms of religion. Dialogue, emphasising the plurality of religions, has appropriated these notions although people live with multiple identities. Secondly the idea of religious conflicts serves as the basic context for dialogue in which dialogue should take necessary actions to contain them. While the concern to do away with conflicts through dialogue needs to be furthered, this thesis considers the multiple factors involved in such conflicts and works for solutions accordingly. Analysing through a case study a clash in 1982 in Kanyakumari district which continues to be termed as Hindu-Christian conflict, this thesis shows that there are multiple factors associated with each communal conflict, and dialogue needs to understand them if it is to work effectively. Thirdly it critiques the elite nature and methods in dialogue which ignore grass root realities and call for ‘taking dialogue to grassroots.’ The argument is that grassroot experiences of relating with each other in everyday living should be incorporated in dialogue for better results. What is proposed at the end is a necessity of re-visioning dialogue which can lead to fostering ‘inter-community relations based on multiple identities and everyday living experiences of ordinary people’ that invites one to enlarge the horizons to comprehend the plurality of relations and identities, not just plurality of religions, understand and address real-life conflicts and question naming conflicts as religious, and incorporate grassroot experiences of everyday living in continuing to work for a more peaceful society.

Abstract:
A exacerbação da beligerância contra as religiões afro-brasileiras, seus adeptos e símbolos, é uma das faces do pentecostalismo que nas últimas duas décadas e meia tem ganho amplo destaque no debate público brasileiro. Blogueiros e jornalistas, militantes do movimento negro e de outros movimentos sociais, assim como delegados, advogados, juízes, sociólogos e antropólogos têm participado ativamente desse fenômeno que já possui agenda própria de investigação nas ciências sociais desde a década de 1990. Observar como os cientistas sociais abordaram este tema até o final da década de 2000 e analisar um estudo de caso, também ocorrido no final desta década, são os principais empreendimentos que esta investigação visa realizar. Para tanto, construo no corpo deste trabalho duas partes inter-relacionadas que analisam algumas faces deste tema de pesquisa que ficou conhecido como \"o conflito entre adeptos das religiões pentecostais e afro-brasileiras\" na esfera pública brasileira. Na primeira parte desta investigação, constituída na forma de um balanço teórico, procuro apresentar como os termos \"guerra santa\" e \"intolerância religiosa\" são centrais nos principais trabalhos que versaram sobre o tema ou o tangenciaram de tal forma que contribuíram para a constituição desse fenômeno com uma agenda própria. Na segunda parte desta investigação tomo como objeto privilegiado de pesquisa um estudo de caso exemplar do conflito entre pentecostais e religiões afro-brasileiras, ocorrido em junho de 2008 na cidade do Rio de Janeiro, quando quatro jovens \"invadem\" um centro espírita no bairro do Catete, suscitando amplo debate sobre o tema, que tem na prática discursiva dos mais diversos atores sociais a presença constante dos termos \"intolerância religiosa\", \"liberdade religiosa\" e \"liberdade de expressão religiosa\"
The exacerbation of belligerence against afro-brazilian religions, their churchgoers and symbols, is one of the faces of pentecostalism in the past two and half decades has ample prominence in brazilian public debate. Bloggers and journalists, militant black movement and other social movements, as well as delegates, lawyers, judges, sociologists and anthropologists have actively participated in this phenomenon that already gets its own research agenda in the social sciences since the 1990s. Investigate how social scientists have addressed this phenomenon until the late 2000s and analyze a case study are the main projects that this research aims to accomplish. To do so, this work get two interdependent parties who seek to analyze some faces of this theme of research that became known as \"the conflict between adherents of pentecostal and afro-brazilian religions\" in the brazilian public sphere. In the first part of this investigation, constituted as a state-of-the-art, I try to make it clear that the terms \"guerra santa\" and \"religious intolerance\" are central to the principal investigations of around the theme, which contributed to the establishment of this phenomenon with its own research agenda in the social sciences . In the second part of this research, I take as a privileged object of research a case study example of the conflict between pentecostals and afro-brazilian religions occurred in June 2008 in the city of Rio de Janeiro, when four young \"invade\" a spiritualist center in Catete, generating widespread debate on the issue, which has in the discursive practice of many social actors the centrality of the terms \"religious intolerance\", \"religious liberty\" and \"freedom of religious expression\"

Abstract:
In Myanmar "othering" has severe consequences for religious groups, including contributing to escalate and sustain violent conflicts. Religious doctrine is among several other factors that inform the views on the "religious other". This paper analyzes "theology of religions" and representation of the "religious other" in one religious group in Myanmar: The majority Christian denomination, the Baptists, with a scope related to Northern Myanmar, particularly Kachin State. The findings are that there is no uniform way in which Christian Baptists in Myanmar, and related to Kachin State, deal with the "religious other". The findings suggest, however, that related to their "theologies of religions" Christian minority voices are mainly concerned with the Buddhist majority. This in a way in which the "religious other" from other religious groups are not of great concern. Conflicts and conflictual relations in which also religious identities across religious groups are present served but more as an implicit backdrop. Instead, positive social representation and explicitly encouraging peace-seeking engagement and relationships with the "religious other" were highlighted by some. Calls for cooperation among Christian groups were also highlighted. In addition, however, an important finding in the analyzed material was that there to a great extent was a Christian inter-group positioning with “in-grouping” and “out-grouping” - including affirmation or rejection of the "theology of religions" - of other Christian sub-groups or individuals. As such, the negative "othering" by some Christians were interestingly not mainly concerned with the "religious other", but with the "denominational other".

The work aims to analyze the life story of the leader of a ¨terreiro de Umbanda¨, keeping in my that interpersonal relationships are what keep the group together. His story is intertwined with the history of the ¨terreiro¨, and after his experiences with other religions, I seek to understand how he organizes the ¨terreiro¨ and its influences, and from recorded interviews, understand how (and if) conflicts happen and how they interfere with rituals . In the field work, I made use of filming, recording and informal conversations, beside my observation in the ¨terreiro¨. With the collected data, I analyze through the concepts of conflict, power and liminality how the relations happens in the ¨terreiro¨, and especially how the leader sees the conflicts and how he interact with different groups. This work had two stages: my first insertion in the terreiro, from April to September 2014 and from March to October 2015. This gap of time was important for the literature to relate with my experiences. Although I could not always interview all the participants I wanted, the interviews gave me subsidy for me to realize that the group remains tight, despite the conflicts, and that Fabio does not clearly define the groups, which seems to trigger more conflicts. The study of Fabio's life story showed how his life and the formation of the terreiro are mixed, and bring new elements to the Umbanda, as Jurema and the Daime. Umbanda, as a religion based on orality, makes that every yard has its particular rules, but Fabio brings new elements to the religion in a particular way, adding a bit of each religions through which he passed in Umbanda.
O trabalho visa analisar a história de vida do dirigente de um terreiro de umbanda. Sua história se confunde com a história do terreiro, e após suas vivências em outras religiões, busco entender como ele organiza o terreiro e suas influências, e a partir de entrevistas gravadas, entender como (e se) acontecem conflitos e como eles interferem nos rituais. No trabalho de campo, contei com filmagens, gravações e conversas informais, além da minha observação no terreiro. Com os dados coletados, pude analisar através dos conceitos de conflito, poder e liminaridade como se dão as relações no terreiro, e principalmente, como o dirigente vê os conflitos e como se movimenta entre os grupos. Este trabalho teve duas etapas: minha primeira inserção no terreiro, de abril até setembro de 2014 e de março até outubro de 2015. Esse hiato de tempo foi importante para que o levantamento bibliográfico estivesse conversando com minhas vivências, o que fez muita diferença. Apesar de nem sempre conseguir entrevistar todos os participantes que eu queria, as entrevistas me deram subsídio para que eu percebesse que o grupo se mantém, apesar dos conflitos, e que Fábio não define claramente os grupos, o que parece ativar mais os conflitos. O estudo da história de vida de Fábio mostrou como sua vida e a formação do terreiro se confundem, e apresenta novas inserções do dirigente na umbanda, como a Jurema e o Daime. A umbanda, pelo fato de ser uma religião que se baseia na oralidade, faz com que cada terreiro tenha suas regras, mas Fábio traz a religião de uma forma particular, acrescentando um pouco das religiões pelas quais passou para a umbanda.

Abstract:
Este trabalho discutiu a história religiosa do Brasil, especificamente em Pernambuco a partir do confronto entre católicos e protestantes, com o advento das primeiras atividades missionárias protestantes em Pernambuco no século XX. Enfrentou o obstáculo recorrente na investigação histórica no que refere aos embates da teoria historiográfica, sobre uma história política, das idéias, das mentalidades, da cultura, intelectual, mas o tema proposto era atinente a História da Idéias, referência adotada. A tese central deste trabalho é que a inserção do protestantismo em Pernambuco constituiu um conflito, e que este foi de caráter ideológico e não confessional, em torno de duas concepções distintas de estabelecimento da Ordem Social, ou da organização social. Para este fim buscamos mostrar que o protestantismo é uma concepção de mundo, um sistema ideológico (em sentido lato, conjunto de idéias), não apenas uma confissão religiosa ou sistema religioso. Assim sendo se objeto foi o protestantismo em Pernambuco, enquanto expressão sócio-política de um sujeito religioso, para responde ao problema acerca da forma como a emergência deste um novo sujeito, estabeleceu um conflito com o sujeito religioso estabelecido, o catolicismo romano. Responde-se o que aconteceu então? Com esta problematização demonstramos a identidade dos sujeitos investigados, a natureza do conflito, a configuração do conflito, e a. solução / acomodação do conflito. Concluímos então que embora sujeitos substantivamente 9 religiosos, conflitaram politicamente, reafirmando que o antagonismo gerado com a presença protestante e a conseqüente reação católica se deveu mais ao risco a ordem social do que a heterodoxia religiosa, de onde a crise que intitula o trabalho.

Abstract:
Religion has often been viewed as a source of conflict and violence in international relations. Yet history provides that religion has also been a source and inspiration for peace building and non-violent resistance. The role of religious leaders in conflict transformation has been treated as a marginal phenomenon. Appleby (2000) points out that identifying and documenting the roles of religious actors in resolving protracted conflicts remains an unfinished task. This thesis is an attempt to meet such challenge by focusing on religious leaders and their role in search of solutions in deeply rooted conflicts. Working from the premise that religious leaders can make a substantial contribution in conflict transformation, the overarching goal of this thesis is to examine what roles religious actors play and how equipped they are to serve their communities in their capacity as peacemakers.

Thesis advisor: Ali Banuazizi
The resurgence of religious violence in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries has led to a growing academic interest in the religionization of politics. Weary of the failures of secular nationalism in ensuring national security and protecting the right to self-determination, many communities have turned to religious nationalism to meet these political needs. As a result, some religious nationalist movements and organizations have resorted to violence in promoting their political agendas. This thesis conducts a comparative analysis of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and the Rohingya crisis in Myanmar in order to investigate the relationship between religion and violence and how this relationship contributes to the intractability of ethnic conflict. Key findings include symbiotic relationships between religious nationalist organizations and civil society, as well as latent processes of religious “Othering.” Implications for future peace-building efforts are explored, with a key focus on interfaith dialogue and grassroots activism

Abstract:
Esta dissertação pretende abordar a questão do conflito na Irlanda do Norte entre as comunidades minoritárias católicas defensoras de uma Irlanda Unida e as comunidades maioritárias protestantes que defendem a anexação da Irlanda do Norte ao Império Britânico, gerando um dos mais sangrentos e mais intensos conflitos da história recente na Europa. O motivo principal que explicou a conflitualidade consiste nas discriminações e desigualdades a que os católicos, enquanto minoria étnica, sofreram por parte dos protestantes visto que a sua participação e direitos na sociedade civil não foram reconhecidos por parte da maioria protestante no território da Irlanda do Norte, o que veio a contribuir para um crescimento do nacionalismo irlandês, baseado numa multiplicidade interminável de vectores económicos, sociais, étnicos, religiosos, políticos, militares (com a presença de movimentos paramilitares) estando intimamente ligados com a ocupação prévia da Irlanda pelos colonos Britânicos protestantes considerada como usurpação por parte dos Católicos nativos da Irlanda desde o século XII. Apesar de se ter chegado a um consenso recentemente em 1998 as hostilidades entre comunidades étnicas na Irlanda do Norte ainda vigoram. Essas hostilidades consistem: na desconfiança de elementos de uma comunidade perante outra motivado pelos traumas passados relacionados com a perda de familiares e amigos, a inexistência de laços de amizade entre republicanos e unionistas motivados por essa mesma desconfiança, episódios esporádicos de mortes de soldados britânicos que faleceram em 7 de Março de 2009, atacados pelo Real Irish Republican Army (RIRA) e a ocorrência de mortes de civis motivados por motivos sectários e de disputas internas dentro destes grupos armados levando a concluir que a paz não será permanente na Irlanda do Norte; ABSTRACT: This dissertation pretends to aboard the question of the conflict in Northern Ireland between the minority Catholic unionists defenders of the idea of a united Ireland and Protestant communities who defend the annexation of the Northern Ireland to the British Empire, generating one of the most bloody and intense conflicts in the recent history of the Europe. The main motive that explains the conflict consists in the discrimination and inequalities that Catholics, as an ethnic minority, suffered from the Protestant, being them participation and them civil rights not recognized by the Protestant majority of the Northern Ireland territory, which contributed to the raising of the Irish nationalism based in multiplicity of economical, social, political, religious and military (and the presence of paramilitary movements) factors, being intimately linked with the occupation of Ireland by the Protestant and British settlers, considered as usurpation by the Catholic native people of Ireland, since the XII century. Although of the parts came to a consensus recently in the year of the 1998, the hostilities between ethnic communities remain still remain. These hostilities consist in the mistrust of elements of one community before another community ,motivated by past traumas related with the loss of family and friends, the nonexistence of links of friendship between republicans and unionists motivated by that same mistrust and due to the occurrence of deaths of British soldiers that died in 7th March 2009, attacked by the Real Irish Republican Army (Army) and the occurrence of deaths of civilians motivated by sectarian reasons and internal disputes in the these armed groups, leading to conclude that the peace will be not permanent in Northern Ireland .

Abstract:
No Rio Grande do Sul, a criação de leis que tentam coibir a prática dos cultos afros por políticos evangélicos somada a visão preconceituosa da população em geral de que estas religiões são atrasadas e possuem rituais maléficos, suscitaram a reação dos adeptos desses cultos que passaram a lutar pela garantia ao direito da liberdade religiosa e contra o estigma de que as religiões afros são cruéis e prejudiciais. A presente dissertação tem como objetivo estudar de que forma os adeptos das religiões afro-brasileiras em Porto Alegre, conhecidos como batuqueiros, legitimam sua religião para defendê-la dos ataques evangélicos e também amenizar alguns conflitos entre prática religiosa afro-brasileira e sociedade em geral. No entanto, a visão de que o culto está se deturpando nos dias atuais também faz com seus adeptos lutem pelo que consideram a autêntica forma de culto, em contraste com as inovações rituais criadas pelas novas gerações de batuqueiros. Essas duas lutas inserem os batuqueiros na esfera pública porto alegrense a partir da visão do que são as religiões afros para eles: a herança africana que carregam consigo e que são responsáveis por preservar e dar continuidade, modelando seus discursos e práticas para além da esfera habitual dos terreiros. É a partir desse argumento, para dentro e para fora, que os adeptos das religiões afros vão legitimar sua prática religiosa perante eles mesmos e a sociedade em geral, lutando a favor do direito à liberdade religiosa.
In Rio Grande do Sul, the creation of laws to repress the practice of afro cults by evangelic politicians along with the based vision of the population that sees these religions as backward and as having malefic rites, gave rise to reactions from the followers of these cults who struggled for the freedom of religion and against the stigma of cruelty and prejudice that is said to come from the afro-religions. The objective of this dissertation is to study in which way the followers of the Afro- Brazilian religions in Porto Alegre, known as batuqueiros, legitimize their religion to defend it against attacks from evangelicals and to harmonize some conflicts between the Afro- Brazilian religious practice and the society. However, the vision that today the cult is misrepresenting itself obliges its followers to struggle for what they understand is the authentic form of the cult, in contrast with innovations in the ritual, created by the new generations of batuqueiros. These two struggles place the batuqueiros in the public sphere of Porto Alegre from the point of view of what are the afro religions for them: the African inheritance that they carry with themselves and that they are responsible for preserving and continue. This models their discourses and practices beyond the customary sphere of the terreiros. it is from this argument, directed to the inside and to the outside, that the followers of the Afro- religions will legitimize their religious practice to themselves and to the society, struggling for the freedom of religion.

Abstract:
This research has as focus to analyze and to understand the relations and conviviality between the Evangelical Wassu and the Catholic-Ouricuri Wassu, considering the environments and situations generating of possible symbolic conflicts. In the present work, I present, initially, a retrospective of the history of the Wassu Cocal People, based on an analysis in the light of Anthropology, in order to situate the Wassu people within ethnology and history in Brazilian society. The conflicts in the Wassu Cocal people's daily life, usually subtle, silenced or expressed, are perceived in this research through opinions, positions, invitations or exclusions in the day-to-day activities of the community, based on the different religions practiced in it. I do not conceive them (the conflicts) only in the grossest sense of the word, when it would arrive at ways of fact, but in its bland form: symbolic conflict. I consider conflict environments particularly: predilections for participation in events outside indigenous lands, disputes for public office and leadership in the community itself or outside it, influence of evangelical ideologies within indigenous schools, as well as the practice or notion of healing between the evangelical Wassu and the Wassu practitioners of Ouricuri. In an attempt to improve the theoretical development and writing of this research, I use the terms Evangelical Wassu and Catholic-Ouricuri Wassu, the latter as a theoretical category to analyze the group of people who declare themselves Catholic but practice Ouricuri, fulfill the obligations and keep the secrets of the rituals and beliefs of the ancestors.
Esta pesquisa tem como foco analisar e compreender como se dão as relações e o convívio entre os Wassu evangélicos e os Wassu católicos-Ouricuri, considerando os ambientes e situações geradores de possíveis conflitos simbólicos. No presente trabalho, apresento, inicialmente, uma retrospectiva da história do Povo Wassu Cocal, pautando-me em uma análise à luz da Antropologia, a fim de situar o povo Wassu dentro da etnologia e da história na sociedade brasileira. Os conflitos no cotidiano do povo Wassu Cocal, geralmente sutis, silenciados ou expressados, são percebidos, nesta pesquisa, a partir de opiniões, posicionamentos, convites ou exclusões nas atividades do dia a dia da comunidade, tendo como base as distintas religiões praticadas na mesma. Não os tomo, os conflitos, somente no sentido mais bruto da palavra, quando se chegaria a vias de fato, mas na sua forma mais branda: o conflito simbólico. Considero como ambientes-conflito principalmente predileções para participação de eventos fora das terras indígenas, disputas por cargos públicos e de liderança na própria comunidade ou fora dela, influência de ideologias evangélicas dentro das escolas indígenas, assim como a prática ou a noção de cura entre Wassu evangélicos e Wassu praticantes do Ouricuri. Numa tentativa de melhorar o desenvolvimento teórico e a escrita desta pesquisa, utilizo os termos Wassu evangélicos e Wassu católicos-Ouricuri, este como categoria teórica para analisar o grupo de pessoas que se declara católico, mas que pratica Ouricuri, cumpre as obrigações e guarda os segredos dos rituais e crenças dos ancestrais.

Este trabalho analisa conflitos religiosos na Bahia durante os anos de 1862 e 1874. Para tanto, traça um panorama do campo religioso baiano no século XIX, destacando a situação do catolicismo, "Religião do Império" brasileiro, em seu contexto geral (relação Brasil – Roma) e local, observando aspectos que foram determinantes para a inserção de grupos religiosos concorrentes na Bahia. A partir da segunda metade do século XIX, protestantes e espíritas, com o objetivo de difundir suas crenças entre os brasileiros, iniciaram trabalhos de divulgação no Brasil. Com estratégias de propaganda diferentes, esses grupos também desenvolveram esforços proselitistas na Bahia. Diante da ameaça a sua hegemonia, a Igreja Católica na Bahia reagiu. Destaca-se o desempenho de Dom Manoel Joaquim da Silveira, Arcebispo da Bahia e Primaz do Brasil que escreveu cartas pastorais condenando o protestantismo e o espiritismo. Além dos debates e polêmicas religiosos, a inserção de grupos religiosos concorrentes também motivou discussões acerca da liberdade religiosa e do acesso a direitos civis no Brasil. This paper examines religious conflicts in Bahia during the years 1862 and 1874 Therefore, traces the Bahia religious field in the nineteenth century, highlighting the situation of Catholicism, "Religion Empire" Brazilian in its general context (relation Brazil. - Roma) and local, noting aspects that were crucial for the insertion of competing religious groups in Bahia. From the second half of the nineteenth century, Protestants and Spiritualists, with the aim of spreading their beliefs among Brazilians, began outreach work in Brazil. With various advertising strategies, these groups have also developed proselytizing efforts in Bahia. Faced with the threat to its hegemony, the Catholic Church reacted in Bahia. We highlight the performance of Dom Manoel Joaquim da Silveira, Archbishop of Bahia and Primate of Brazil who wrote pastoral letters condemning Protestantism and spiritualism. Besides the religious debates and controversies, the inclusion of competing religious groups also prompted discussions about religious freedom and access to civil rights in Brazil.

O Projeto de Restauração Católica no Rio Grande do Sul encontrou eco na cidade de Santa Maria, principalmente com a chegada dos padres palotinos e jesuítas. No final do século XIX e início do século XX, a cidade, que tinha no seu território a presença de membros de diferentes crenças, vai ser palco de disputa pelo espaço do sagrado. Dentre as estratégias de conquista, por parte de católicos e protestantes, destaca-se a atuação no campo educacional e a construção de templos. Através da imprensa as tesões e os conflitos se declaram entre católicos e acatólicos e vice-versa. Anticlericais, maçons e metodistas criticam os dogmas da Igreja católica e a conduta do clero sul rio-grandense. Nos anos de 1930, o clero católico santa-mariense, volta-se para a educação também da classe operária por temer a propagação das idéias comunistas. A afirmação do catolicismo no Rio Grande do Sul acontece com a divulgação da devoção a Nossa Senhora Medianeira de Todas as Graças, a partir de Santa Maria. A difusão da idéia do “perigo comunista”, nos anos de 1930 contribuiu para que Nossa Senhora Medianeira se tornasse, no Brasil, a Padroeira dos Círculos Operários e no Estado, a padroeira do Rio Grande do Sul. Essa devoção, juntamente com a devoção paulista de Nossa Senhora Aparecida, Padroeira do Brasil e a imagem do Cristo Redentor, no Rio de Janeiro, tornaram-se elementos importantes para a Igreja legitimar a conotação católica da nação naquele período.

Abstract:
The number of conflicts with religious dimensions has been steadily increasing over the last few decades. Previous research has found that religious conflicts are less likely to end by mediation whilst little research has been done as to what makes them initiate mediation. Building upon Ripeness Theory, this paper argues that the religious component makes religious parties less sensitive towards mutually hurting stalemates, but not immune to them, due to their heterogenous nature. This proposition is analysed by examining the empirical pattern of mediation onset in conflicts over religious incompatibilities using a logistic regression analysis. The findings suggest that higher numbers of average battle-related deaths, together with the duration of conflict and presence of crude oil reserves, increase the likelihood of mediation onset, whilst differentiations in centrality of a religious goal or religious identity divides have no statistically significant effect.

This thesis deals with the relationship between republican ethics and political realism in Machiavelli s thought and it develops itself through a historical-conceptual approach, considering, in first place, Machiavelli in the context of his time and republican civic humanism. Despite the continuity with tradition, The Prince represents a radical novelty that Machiavelli introduces regarding the council manuals to the Princes; a tradition that a Machiavelli s contemporary, as Erasmus of Rotterdam, still maintains and cultivates in his work Education of a Christian Prince . If Erasmus gives advice to the prince to behave as a good Christian, Girolamo Savonarola, another contemporary that Machiavelli knows and analyzes closely with a blend of skepticism and admiration - calling him " unarmed prophet " - seeks to demonstrate in practice that it s possible to govern a city with the pater noster and the rosary in hands in opposite to Cosimo de Medici s realistic maxim that was resumed centuries later by Max Weber. The confrontation with Erasmus and Savonarola offers the opportunity to analyze the importance that Machiavelli attributes to religion in its relation to politics, starting from the critics to the christian religion and the praise of ancient roman religion. Then an interpretation of the author's thought is built from the perspective of political realism which offers a new analysis of the conflict, arguing that these clashes of humors are responsible for freedom and balance of the politic body. Finally, the thesis addresses its central theme: the relationship between ethics and politics in Machiavelli s thought considering various and contrasting readings of important specialists on this issue. The conclusion shows that, according to Machiavelli, politics is not merely a technical, cold and calculated praxis, but that it carries a value, and it is committed to a greater good which should be reached even if it would be necessary use means that break away from the traditionally accepted moral norms. Therefore Machiavelli seeks an effective policy to achieve the republican purposes: common good and freedom of citizens.
A presente tese sobre a relação entre ética republicana e realismo político em Maquiavel se desenvolve através de um enfoque histórico-conceitual, situando inicialmente Maquiavel no contexto do seu tempo e do humanismo cívico republicano. Apesar dessa continuidade com a tradição, O Príncipe representa uma novidade radical que Maquiavel introduz em relação aos manuais de Conselho aos Príncipes; tradição que um contemporâneo, como Erasmo de Roterdã, ainda mantém e cultiva na sua Educação de um Príncipe Cristão. Se Erasmo dá conselhos para que o príncipe se comporte como um bom cristão, Girolamo Savonarola, outro contemporâneo que Maquiavel conhece e analisa de perto com um misto de ceticismo e admiração, chamando-o de profeta desarmado - , procura demonstrar na prática que é possível governar uma cidade com os pater noster e o terço em mãos contrariamente à máxima realista de Cosimo de Medici retomada séculos depois por Max Weber. O confronto com Erasmo e Savonarola oferece a oportunidade para analisar a importância que Maquiavel atribui à religião para a política, através da crítica à religião cristã e ao elogio da antiga religião romana. Em seguida, é feita uma interpretação sobre o pensamento do autor na perspectiva do realismo político, que oferece uma nova análise dos conflitos, defendendo que estes choques de umori são os responsáveis pela liberdade e o equilíbrio do corpo político. E, finalmente, a tese aborda o tema central da relação entre ética e política em Maquiavel, apresentando várias e contrastantes leituras de importantes comentaristas sobre esta questão. A conclusão aponta que, para Maquiavel, a política não é meramente uma técnica fria, calculada, mas é portadora de um valor, e tem compromisso com um bem final, que deverá ser realizado mesmo que se utilize de meios que fogem das normas morais tradicionalmente aceitas. Por isso, Maquiavel procura uma política eficaz que consiga resultados para alcançar os fins republicanos do bem comum e das liberdades dos cidadãos: um realismo político a serviço de uma ética republicana.

Abstract:
This study investigates the complications raised in teaching a confessional Religious Education in a multi-religious context pertaining in Ugandan religiously founded public schools, government and private founded schools. The thesis contends that the introduction of Islam, Anglican and Roman Catholic Christian religious traditions in Uganda not only presented alternative religious systems to the existing African traditional religion but ushered in an era of competition for converts that subsequently led to religious conflict. The thesis also submits the view that the missionary aim of formal education in Uganda led to the creation, not only of a denominational, but a divisive educational system. While the study commends the colonial government and the first independent government's efforts towards establishing a nondenominational educational system, it suggests that their failure to address the controversial questions raised by the nature of RE at the time was a missed opportunity. The study probes the current syllabuses, aims and content of CRE and IRE for secondary and primary schools and suggests that their main intention of promoting spiritual growth of students is inappropriate for implementation in the multi-religious schools. The thesis questions the government's proposed exclusion of RE from the education curriculum and its replacement with Moral Education. It suggests that while Moral Education could be a subject on its own, Religious Education needs to be maintained but re-designed to address the multi-religious context. It presents a multi-faith RE as the ideal format of teaching about religion.

This disssertation aimed at discussing religious conflicts and political relations in Pará between 1930 and 1941 against the political background of the events of the 1930 s and of the tenure of Dom Antônio de Almeida Lustosa as bishop of Pará. In this period, some priests have positioned themselves against the political status quo, taking some attitudes that pleased neither the political bosses nor the local catholic hierarchy, which provoked a censure on them. Involved with electoral lawsuits or defalcation of catholic property, Father José Maria do Lago, Father José Foulquier, Father Leandro Pinheiro and Father Alcides Paranhos were forced to rethink their sacerdotal behavior towards society. Working with different kinds of official documents and newspapers, this work discusses the actions of such religious men and the positions and actions of the Catholic Church and of the local Governments concerning these attitudes, which were classified, by some politicians of that time, as petty politics.
Esta dissertação procurou discutir os conflitos religiosos e as relações políticas no Pará entre 1930 e 1941, tendo como cenário político os acontecimentos de 30 e o bispado de Dom Antônio de Almeida Lustosa. Nesse período, percebemos que alguns padres se posicionaram contra a estrutura política vigente, tomando atitudes que não agradaram nem aos dirigentes políticos, nem os superiores católicos paraenses, o que os levou a uma censura religiosa. Envolvidos com processos eleitorais ou desvio de patrimônio católico, Padre José Maria do Lago, Padre José Foulquier, Padre Leandro Pinheiro e Padre Alcides Paranhos foram forçados a repensarem seu comportamento enquanto sacerdotes diante à sociedade. Trabalhando com ofícios, correspondências, atas episcopais, circulares, cartas pastorais e jornais da época, o trabalho discute as ações destes religiosos e a posição e ação da Igreja católica e da Interventoria locais diante de tais atitudes, consideradas, por políticos da época, de politiqueiras.

Abstract:
Este estudo objetiva identificar a questão da liberdade na ekklesia de Corinto, logo após a sua fundação, em 50, por Paulo de Tarso. Utilizando as epístolas 1 e 2 Coríntios, escritas por Paulo e endereçadas a essa comunidade, provavelmente, entre os anos 54 e 60. Dos eixos temáticos presentes nas cartas pode-se compreender a formação do conceito de liberdade dentro dos padrões estabelecidos pelo espaço na qual a comunidade está inserida. Na averiguação dos conflitos e liberdades, faz uso de uma metodologia que se apoia na Análise de Discurso e nos pressupostos teóricos de Chartier acerca das representações incluídas no discurso paulino proferido no século I. Como resultado observa-se que a questão da liberdade presente na institucionalização das comunidades cristãs na metade do século I, embora pregada em discurso, surge em meio a conflitos que levam a novas regulamentações, muitas das vezes em função da ausência de fronteiras bem definidas entre os grupos religiosos cristãos e a sociedade que os cerca.
This thesis aims at identifying the issue of freedom in the Corinthian ekklesia, soon after its foundation, at 50 CE, by Paul of Tarsus. Using the letters 1 and 2 Corinthians, written by Paul and addressed to this community between 54 and 60. The themes present in the letters comprehend the formation of the concept of freedom within the standards set by the space in which it operates. In the investigation of conflicts and freedoms, makes use of a methodology that is based on Discourse Analysis and Chartier's theoretical assumptions about the representation included in the Pauline speech delivered in the 1st century. As a result it is observed that the issue of freedom present in the institutionalization of Christian communities in the middle of the first century, though preached in speech, exists amid conflicts that lead to new regulations, often due to the lack of clear boundaries between the Christian religious groups and society around them.

Abstract:
O trabalho de pesquisa apresenta um estudo sobre mediação de conflitos a partir do diálogo nas IES particulares, na ordem da mensalidade e matrícula. Para tanto, precisamos inicialmente entender o conceito de conflito, bem como a sua natureza, tipos e métodos de resoluções de conflitos. A mediação como uma das ferramentas para dirimir ou evitar os conflitos, os princípios da mediação, bem como o ofício e os limites do mediador. Essa mediação passa pelo diálogo e pela escuta sensível dos litigantes. O estudo busca identificar práticas desenvolvidas de mediação e prevenção do conflito a partir de uma comunicação eficaz. Apontam-se os limites existentes nessa mediação de conflitos devido à natureza complexa e subjetiva do ser humano e às reais possibilidades que o mediador tem em prevenir ou resolver conflitos em IES privada. Algumas possibilidades são detectadas e podem melhorar o relacionamento entre aluno e IES.
This research paper presents a study on conflict mediation based on dialog in private Higher Learning Institutions [HLI], related to monthly payments and enrollments. For this it is necessary to first understand the concept of conflict, as well as its nature, types and methods of conflict resolutions; mediation as one of the tools to solve or avoid conflicts, the principles of mediation, as well as the role and the limits of the mediator. This mediation goes through dialog and through sensitive listening to the litigants. The study seeks to identify practices developed for mediation and for the prevention of conflict based on efficacious communication. Existing limits to this conflict mediation are pointed out due to the complex and subjective nature of the human being and to the real possibilities which the mediator has in preventing or resolving conflicts in a private Higher Learning Institution [HLI]. Some possibilities are perceived which can improve the relationship between the student and the HLI.

Abstract:
The civil war that started in Syria in 2011 began as a series of political disputes between government forces and opposition groups. Tension mounted when citizens of Syria called for their president, Bashar al-Assad, to step down from power. When government forces resisted the will of the people, and instead used force against them, the country descended into all-out war. Two distinct groups surfaced in opposition to one another, with opposition rebels fighting against the Syrian regime. But as the war progressed these two groups began to display religious characteristics. Opposition groups began to represent a Sunnī Muslim rebel force, while regime forces where represented by the Alawite sect, and as the war continued elements of jihādism began to surface within the fighting. Syria’s sectarian rifts began to reveal themselves as religious factions became more involved in the fighting. These rifts are a result of centuries of violence and tension between Sunnī Muslim and Alawites in the country. Their theological beliefs differ extensively from one another, and over the course of history these differences have led to clashes between the two groups. The study looks at the historical interactions between Sunnī Muslims and the Alawites in Syria, and identifies the theological differences between the two groups. The study then uses these two elements to understand the religious violence that Syria is experiencing, and why such intolerance is happening between the religious factions of the country.

Abstract: This dissertation intends to explain the coherences and ambivalences on school Religious Education (RE) from a study of the place of religious education in the educational project of two distinct schools: the Municipal School Ana Elisa Lisbon Gregori and the Franciscan School St. Michael the Archangel. The research started from the conviction that, in its course through Brazilian territory, this curricular component is related to the space of political tensions, which involves negotiations between state and religions. In addition to the pedagogical questions, there are elements of legal, religious and epistemic order at stake. The main objective of the research was to analyze models and practices of religious education in these two schools, considering the presence in them of a plural religious public. It was considered their dilemmas and complexity from a threefold classification of Religious Educational models (Catechetical, Theological and Religious Sciences) present in theory and practice. The work was divided into three steps. Initially, it was shown how the Religious Education is present in the Brazilian Constitutions and on the educational legislation of the States of Sao Paulo and Rio de Janeiro, for later explaining of the present models at course in the Religious Education practice in Brazilian education. After, the field research made in the schools sought to identify the conflicts generated between students and teachers in the Religious Education classes, and tried to determine how the model of Sciences of Religion could set an important option in teacher training for the Religious Education, also being the one that can surpass with more gains the challenges of religious diversity among students. Finally, the main results of the survey were presented, which pointed to the need to have a greater clarity regarding the definition of the object of Religious Education and the contribution of Religious Science for this area of knowledge, since it will be necessary to rely always more, in the pedagogical plans of schools, with a religious multiplicity between students
Resumo: Esta dissertação tenciona expor as coerências e ambivalências no Ensino Religioso escolar (ER) a partir de um estudo do lugar do ensino religioso no projeto pedagógico de duas escolas distintas: o Colégio Municipal Ana Elisa Lisboa Gregori e o Colégio Franciscano São Miguel Arcanjo. A pesquisa partiu da convicção de que, em seu percurso pelo território brasileiro, este componente curricular encontra-se relacionado ao espaço das tensões políticas, que envolvem negociações entre Estado e religiões. Para além das questões pedagógicas, estão em jogo elementos de ordem legal, religiosa e epistêmica. O objetivo principal da pesquisa foi analisar modelos e práticas do Ensino Religioso nessas duas escolas, considerando nelas a presença de um público religioso plural. Levaram-se em conta seus dilemas e complexidade a partir de uma classificação tríplice dos modelos de ER (catequético, teológico e das Ciências da Religião) presentes na teoria e na prática. O trabalho foi dividido em três passos. Inicialmente, mostrou-se de que maneira o ER se faz presente nas Constituições brasileiras e na legislação educacional dos Estados de São Paulo e Rio de Janeiro, para depois explicitar os modelos presentes no decorrer da prática do ER na educação brasileira. Em seguida, a pesquisa de campo feita nas escolas procurou identificar os conflitos gerados entre os alunos e os professores nas aulas do ER, e tentou apurar de que forma o modelo das Ciências da Religião poderia se configurar como importante opção na formação docente para o ER, além de poder ser aquela que supera com mais ganhos os desafios da pluralidade religiosa entre os alunos. Finalmente, foram apresentados os principais resultados obtidos pela pesquisa, os quais apontam para a necessidade de se ter maior clareza quanto à definição do objeto do ER e da contribuição das Ciências da Religião para esta área de conhecimento, uma vez que será preciso contar sempre mais, nos planos pedagógicos escolares, com uma multiplicidade religiosa entre os alunos

Abstract:
Decentralisation and federalism are often said to mitigate conflict by better meeting the preferences of a heterogeneous population and demands for limited autonomy. But it is argued in this thesis that this perspective does not sufficiently address the ways in which conflict-ridden relations entangle processes across different scales ‒ local, regional as well as national. The aim of this thesis is to explain how it is that while decentralisation may contribute to national stability, it may simultaneously generate local conflict. This problem is analysed through a conflict in Kaduna State in north-central Nigeria where there have been outbreaks of violence between Hausa-Fulani Muslims and Christians of different ethnicities since the 1980s. Christian ethnic groups claim to be excluded from state benefits, while Muslim groups claim that Christians have undue influence over the state bureaucracy. The conflict feeds off ethnic and religious mobilisation. Expanded local political space further fuelled the conflict following the decentralisation that came with the shift from military to civilian rule in 1999. Decentralisation in Nigeria implies that the authorities should be associated with the majority ethnicity or religion in a specific territory. A localisation of politics accordingly raises the stakes in identity-based conflicts, especially as control of local institutions is necessary for inclusion in wider political processes. In Kaduna, this has led to demands for separating the state on a religious and ethnic basis. Actors make use of “scalar politics” to conform to or challenge boundaries set by the state. Social relations are associated with different boundaries.  Accordingly, decentralisation triggers conflicts on an identity basis, involving contestation over the hierarchy of scales. While national struggles between ethnic and religious groups may be subdued, conflicts play out locally as decentralisation in Nigeria makes religion and ethnicity a powerful tool for political mobilisation.

Abstract:
Este trabalho se volta para as formas de problematização contemporâneas da prática sacrificial a partir de um lugar de observação específico, orientado pelo objetivo de compreender como esta prática se torna um mediador de produção de alteridades. Apresento, assim, um caso de dissenso envolvendo a prática sacrificial por grupos religiosos que se apresentam no espaço público enquanto representantes da tradição de matriz africana, após uma interpelação começada por projetos de lei de âmbito local. Como fica claro durante os acontecimentos públicos que envolvem a proposta de legislação, o fulcro da questão é a promoção de uma sensibilização para com o que os produtores deste projeto identificam como afetados e ‘‘violados em seus direitos’’ pelos sacrificantes: os animais não-humanos envolvidos nestas práticas. Especialmente preocupado com grafar a forma como a ‘‘diferença’’ é razoada em distintos momentos da controvérsia, entendo a esta enquanto uma categoria analítica. Assim, a dissertação também recorta o âmbito das moralidades em conflito pelos dois grupos salientando os irredutíveis contornos ontológicos rastreáveis pelas formas de enquadramento da disputa pelo encaminho público do PL 21/2015, o propulsor da controvérsia aqui em análise.
This work emphasizes the contemporary forms of the problematization of the sacrificial practice from a very specific place of observation which is guided by the aim to understand how this practice becomes a mediator at the production of otherness. Thus, I present a case of disagreement involving the sacrificial practice, made by religious groups that appear in the public space as representantives of African matrix tradition, after an interpellation which has begun by local law projects. As it is gets clear during the public events surrounding the proposed legislation, the fulcrum/core is to promote awareness to whom the producers of this project identify as being affected and "violated in their rights" by the sacrificers: -non non-human animals involved in these practices. Particularly concerned with drawing the "difference" at different points in the controversy, I understand it as an analytical category. The dissertation also focus on the scope of the conflicting morals in the two groups here, highlighting the irreducible ontological contours traceable in the forms of framing of the dispute, in the public's law PL 21/2015, the propellant of the controversy under analysis here.

Abstract:
A wealth of recent scholarship has focused on interreligious dialogue as a resource for the transformation of religious conflicts. Such studies often mention the importance of discoveries or 'insights' as key factors in successful dialogue processes. However, few authors have devoted sustained attention to understanding how insights contribute to transforming conflict dynamics during interfaith dialogues.
The present study draws on the cognitional theory of Canadian philosopher Bernard Lonergan as a framework for exploring the significance of insights in interreligious dialogue processes. The study begins with an overview of representative perspectives on learning in interfaith dialogue and conflict transformation. Following this, I offer a detailed analysis of Lonergan's work on insight in understanding, judgment, and practical learning, highlighting the important role that insights play in structuring interpretation and communication in dialogue situations.
Drawing on Lonergan's theoretical framework, I explore how insights are implicated in shaping communication in dialogues between religious actors, both in the development of conflicts, as well as in their transformation. Using case studies from dialogues involving Christians, Muslims, and Jews, I examine how mistaken insights can contribute to sustaining relationships of threat among parties in religious conflicts. I then examine how dialogue processes can act as catalysts for the emergence of new and more accurate insights that transform parties' understanding of the conflict. By helping parties correct mistaken interpretations and discover alternate ways of communicating, such insights can often play an important role in facilitating shifts from hostile patterns of interaction to more cooperative forms of engagement.
Throughout, I explain how Lonergan's work offers significant advances over existing discussions of insight and its role in conflict transformation processes. His approach identifies a range of different types of insights, and thus facilitates an analysis of the different roles insights can play in structuring communication at different phases of dialogue processes. It also permits a more developed exploration of the various cognitional and environmental conditions that facilitate or frustrate the occurrence of insights in dialogue situations. His work thus constitutes an important resource for theorists and practitioners seeking a better understanding of the cognitive dynamics that contribute to the transformation of interreligious dialogue processes.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis studies the importance of ethnic conflict in explaining the poor economic performance of some countries and the relevance of political institutions to reduce this effect. The first two chapters study the role that each dimension of ethnicity plays in the process of economic development. We cover essentially four issues: first, and in contrast with the ethnic characteristics considered in many studies, this thesis emphasizes the importance of religious conflict in the explanation of economic growth. Second, we consider an index of polarization, instead of the traditional index of fragmentation, in order to measure conflict. We provide a theoretical explanation for the index based on a rent-seeking model approach applied to the behaviour of religious groups. Third, we elaborate a database of religious diversity within countries and finally we analyze the channels through which religious polarization affects growth. This constitutes a new contribution to what has been done until now in the literature that studies the relation between ethnic diversity and economic growth. The main finding is that religious conflict is an important factor in explaining economic growth and it is also an important explanation for the so called "African growth tragedy". Interestingly, when religious diversity measures are included the ethnolinguistic diversity measure employed by Easterly and Levine (1997) turns out to be insignificant suggesting that the former may be more important in explaining the poor economic performance both in Africa and elsewhere. The third chapter analyzes the effect of political systems on preventing or reducing violence. It is generally agreed that a high level of democracy is not a sufficient condition for eliminating the risk of armed conflicts in heterogeneous societies. We show that the combination of the electoral system and the democracy level have a high explanatory power on the probability of a civil war. The reason for the important role of voting rules in preventing armed conflicts is their relative ability to affect the opportunity cost of rebellion. Given a particular level of democracy, countries with majoritarian or presidential systems are more prone to violence than countries with proportional systems where the opportunity cost of rebellion is higher. Therefore it seems that freedom is not a sufficiently effective vaccine against violence, even if it is necessary.

The proposal of this dissertation is to do read the narrative in Acts 6,1 8, 3 in the perspective of an old martyr tradition. The Hellenists started to conflict with the Hebrews, Stephen confront the Jews of the Diaspora assembled in the synagogues, and is brought to the Synadrion and executed. The reason of his execution is his critic concerning the law and the temple. After a vision in form of an ecstatic experience he is violently murdered. Lucas, by this, describes Stephen as a victorious hero. The reality of conflicts, opposition, persecution and martyrdom does not indicate defeat, but the strengthening of faith. The death of Stephen is interpreted within this tradition. The comprehension of the relation between Stephen and the Hellenists is fundamental for the understanding of the continuation of the movement of the followers of Jesus and for the development of the post-eastern Christology.(AU)
Nesta dissertação nos propomos a fazer uma leitura da narrativa de Atos dos Apóstolos 6,1-8,3, considerando-a nos moldes de uma antiga tradição de martírio. Os Helenistas entram em conflito com os Hebreus, Estevão entra em atrito com os judeus da diáspora que se reúnem nas sinagogas, e é levado perante o Sinédrio e executado. O motivo de sua execução é a crítica à Lei e ao Templo. Depois de ter uma experiência de êxtase visionário ele é violentamente assassinado. Lucas, todavia, descreve Estevão como herói vitorioso. A realidade de conflitos, oposição, perseguição e martírio não se constitui em derrota, mas em fortalecimento da fé. A morte de Estevão é interpretada dentro desta tradição. A compreensão do caso de Estevão e dos Helenistas é fundamental para entender a continuação do movimento dos seguidores de Jesus e o início do desenvolvimento da Cristologia após o evento pascal.(AU)

Abstract:

This project considers questions of religious othering in the contemporary United States through the lens of popular post-religious narratives. These narratives salaciously depict mistreated women in order to demarcate certain religions as deviant; authors and pundits then use these narratives in order to justify outside intervention in specific religious communities. By closely analyzing a selection of contemporary narratives written about women from Muslim and fundamentalist Mormon communities with special attention to both the feminist enactments and tropes of captivity which permeate these texts, this project challenges simplistic portrayals of religious Others. In doing so, the analysis draws the reader's attention to the uncanny imitations in many of these texts: in arguing that certain religions "capture" their female adherents, authors of contemporary captivity narratives silence the voices of women whose stories they seek to illuminate. The dissertation also explores the ambivalent content of many of these narratives. When read against the grain, captivity literature offers surprising opportunities for nuanced explorations of religion, gender and agency.

Abstract:
The collective nature of group affiliation may inhibit an individual from exhibiting prosocial behavior regarding acts of religiously-motivated terror. This study's purpose was to investigate the nature of bystander intervention as it relates to religious group affiliation. Darley and Latane's bystander effect theory provided the theoretical framework for this study. The research questions examined the impact of religious group affiliation and group size on the dependent variables of civic moral disengagement (CMD) and commitment to the war on terror (CWT). Three validated survey instruments were administered to a random participant pool of 206 respondents. An ANCOVA and Spearman's rho correlation were employed to address the research questions. Findings revealed that neither religious group affiliation nor group size significantly predicts either CWT or CMD after controlling for the degree of religious commitment. Further research should test alternative theories associated with leadership and group dynamics. Positive social change is advanced by acknowledging that bystanders to acts of terrorism may not be influenced by factors such as group affiliation or size of religious group affiliations. These findings underscore the complexity of the relationship between behavior and religious affiliation. Policy makers and future researchers may benefit by redirecting their focus for prevention and intervention toward influences such as the motivational dynamic between religious leaders and their followers.

Abstract:
The role of religion in politics has been rising to the forefront of history in the Middle East for a number of decades and more so since 9/11, raising significant questions as to whether religion functions as a catalyst for conflict or peace. This thesis focuses specifically on the role of religion in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and the manner in which actors incorporate religion into their national politics. In doing so, the inquiry focuses on the proponents of religion on both the Jewish and the Palestinian sides in addressing a) territorial rights, b) interpretations in the use of deadly force and violence, and c) interpretations of the final political goal to be attained. In the context of the broader nationalism of each side, the study reflects on different approaches to religion and how they may provide perspectives that are either catalytic to conflict or catalytic to building peace. In this light, the inquiry of this thesis analyzes and contrasts religious nationalism and pro-peace religiosity, concluding with implications and directives for conflict resolution.

Este trabalho tem como objetivo estudar as concepções de política dos moradores de Riachão do Jacuípe – BA, através de narrativas sobre os conflitos ocorridos na cidade na década de 1990, durante o vicariato do padre José Silvino dos Santos adepto de uma evangelização libertadora baseada na Doutrina Social da Igreja. A evangelização libertadora praticada pelo padre Silvino, sua opção preferencial pelos pobres e pela defesa da justiça social incomodou e aborreceu muitos jacuipenses, sobretudo os políticos que, há três décadas no poder, estavam “acostumados” a terem os padres como aliados. Para entender os significados e práticas de política dos jacuipenses entrevistei 60 pessoas da comunidade, consultei os arquivos da Câmara Municipal e da Paróquia de Nossa Senhora da Conceição, os jornais que circulavam na cidade na época. Inicialmente, discuto o discurso do Riachão atrasado da década de 1990. Em seguida, trato da construção da memória do tempo da harmonia, o período anterior à chegada de padre Silvino na cidade, época em que vigoravam os costumes e as tradições religiosas e que ‘padres e políticos eram amigos’. E, finalmente, abordo o tempo do conflito marcado pelos desentendimentos entre o padre, os políticos e grande parte da população em que se intensificou a repetição da frase: “Padre não deve se meter em política”.

Abstract:
A liberdade religiosa é um direito fundamental previsto no art. 5, inciso VI, da Constituição da República Federativa do Brasil. Apresenta várias facetas, pois consiste no direito de professar ou não uma religião, de mudar de crença, de poder se manifestar através de cerimônias e reuniões e, finalmente, no direito dos fiéis de se organizarem em instituições. O Estado garante este direito ao não interferir na liberdade individual do cidadão e ao garantir que outros cidadãos também não interfiram. Ao longo da história, o Brasil acumulou sete constituições. A segunda, de 1891, adotou em definitivo o modelo de separação entre Estado e Igreja. O modelo de Estado laico foi mantido pela atual Constituição, de 1988. Laicidade não é sinônimo de laicismo. Este significa exclusão da religião do âmbito público, enquanto aquele diz respeito à neutralidade e imparcialidade por parte do Estado. Secularização é um fenômeno de caráter social, da diminuição de práticas religiosas, e não apresenta caráter político. A ampla liberdade religiosa possibilita conflitos com outros direitos fundamentais, podendo, assim, vir a ser restringida. Todavia, há a necessidade de se impor limites a essas restrições através de instrumentos jurídicos que garantam não seja o direito em tela suprimido de forma excessiva. Algumas situações têm tornado concretos possíveis conflitos legais entre a liberdade religiosa e outros direitos fundamentais: disciplina dos filhos com a nova redação dada para o ECA, que proíbe o uso de castigo físico, símbolos religiosos em repartições públicas, e a tensão da ética sexual cristã com o conceito de diversidade. A Teologia apresenta seus próprios conceitos de Estado, liberdade e tolerância. Na tradição reformada, a autoridade civil é uma ordem divina que deve atuar dentro de seus limites sem poder adentrar na esfera de outras áreas da sociedade, tais quais a Igreja e a família. Em sua liberdade, o cristão se submete às autoridades pelo bem de todos, visto que o mal precisa ser controlado. A tolerância cristã não relativiza suas convicções, mas também não permite que se vá além do uso de palavras na proclamação da fé. Apesar de o cristianismo ter por longos períodos se misturado com o poder civil, não é este o objetivo perseguido. Todo o cidadão tem o direito de fazer parte da administração pública e do governo e dar sua colaboração à polis, independente de seu credo ou ausência de credo. Assim, o cristão pode participar da política e deve buscar cooperar, visto ter um mandato cultural de mordomia da criação. Sua participação, porém, deve elevar a exigência ética dos agentes públicos e políticos. Pela corrente teológica que permeia a pesquisa, a família deve ter primazia na formação educacional das crianças. O Estado não deveria dificultar a prática de homeschooling e nem interferir no método de disciplina preferido pelos pais, pois família e Estado circulam em esferas distintas. Ainda que não seja essa o entendimento que tem direcionado a legislação brasileira, é possível incentivar a criação de leis nesse sentido, vez que a Constituição do Brasil não ignora a importância do papel central da família na educação. Quanto às tensões da ética cristã sexual tradicional com as exigências dos ativistas de diversidade sexual, não podemos ter expectativa de soluções definitivas, visto que essa é uma consequência da pluralidade cultural e religiosa natural do Estado democrático de direito.
Religious liberty is a fundamental right foreseen in the Constitution of the Federative Republic of Brazil. It has many faces, for it consists in the right to profess or not profess a religion, to change beliefs, to manifest faith through ceremonies and rites, and, finally, in the right which the followers have to organize themselves in institutions. The State assures the right of religion by not interfering in the individual liberty of its citizens, and also by assuring that other citizens will not interfere either. Across history, Brazil accumulated seven constitutions. The second one, from 1891, institutionalized the separation model between Church and State. The lay State is kept in the current Constitution from 1988. Laicity is not synonym of laicisim. The last one means exclusion of religion of the public square, as the first one means neutrality an impartiality by the State. Secularization is a phenomenon of social character, related to the decrease of religious practice, and it does not have any political character. Ample religious liberty can cause some conflicts with other fundamental rights, so it can be restrained. Nevertheless, there is the need to impose limits to these restrictions through legal tools which will assure the right in case will not be diminished to the point of non existence. Some situations have made concrete the possible tensions between religious liberty and other civil rights: discipline of children by the new text given to the Statute of Childhood that forbids the use of physical punishment, religious symbols in public institutions, and the tension between sexual Christian ethics and the concept of diversity. Theology also presents its own concepts of State, freedom and tolerance. In the tradition of Reformation, civil authority is a divine order to which obedience is due but must act inside its limits and cannot get in the sphere of other areas of society, such as Church and family. In their liberty, the Christian must submit to authorities for the good of all, for evil has to be controlled. Christian tolerance does not make relative its convictions, but does not allow that one will go beyond words to proclaim his or her faith. Even though Christianity has been mixed for long times with civil power, that is not the goal to be persuaded. Every citizen has the right to be part of the public administration and government, as well as to cooperate to the polis, no matter his or her creed or absence of creed. So the Christian can participate in politics and must be helpful because they have a cultural mandate to take care of creation. Their participation shall elevate the ethical demand of public and political agents. By the theology that leads this research, family has priority on the educational formation of children. State should not put barriers to homeschooling nor interfere on the discipline method chosen by parents because family and State move in different spheres. Though this is not the understanding that has directed Brazilian legislation, it is possible to create new laws that would benefit this orientation, for the Constitution of Brazil does not ignore the central role that family has in education. Concerning the tension between traditional sexual Christian ethics and the demand of sexual diversity activists we should not expect any definitive solution, given the fact that this conflict is a consequence of cultural and religious plurality natural of the democratic rule of law.

Abstract:
This thesis explores and analyses the impact of ethno-religious conflicts in the city of Jos and other parts of the Middle Belt and Nigeria on gender relations and the lives of women. The thesis addresses the question of the impact of conflict on women beyond loss of life and property as seen in other literature. It shows how ongoing conflictual relations that are not always violent, but include aspects of political competition disadvantage women. The research locations covered by this research are urban areas. Data for this research was gathered through interviews and Focus Group Discussions (FGDs) with 102 respondents, recruited through purposive sampling and willingness to participate in the interview. This thesis argues that the conflict dynamics affect the life chances of women on different levels because women are associated with the transcendence or transgression of group boundaries in their private life. The growing importance of group boundaries means that women’s life choices, such as marriage, are increasingly subject to public comment and criticism. Beyond the private, the growing importance of group boundaries makes it increasingly difficult for women to participate in typically female activities such as trading and selling in local markets. At the political level, the desire for ever smaller groups to be recognised works against the representation of women, who are seen as being much less capable than men of representing group interests. And within the public sector, too, the fallout from the crisis means that women here are also subject to increasing control and scrutiny.

Full text
Abstract:
The issue of psychotherapists' values in psychotherapy has become increasingly challenging as philosophers have questioned the viability of concepts such as objectivity and relativism. Historically, psychotherapists have relied on notions such as bracketing or suspending their own values to avoid the moral and ethical implications that such values might be active in psychotherapy. Acknowledging that psychotherapists' values are active in psychotherapy raises a host of important issues, including how to appropriately navigate value conflicts. This study explored the experience of psychotherapists as they navigate conflicts between their religious and professional values. Qualitative interviews with eight religiously committed psychologists were transcribed and analyzed using Collaborative Hermeneutic Interpretation. Major themes and findings include: the possibility that one can be a religiously committed psychologist; that research topics are informed by religious values; the strengthening of personal values through conflict; there are a variety of values gained from religious affiliation; feeling out of place in religious and professional communities; having religious and philosophical issues broadened and deepened in complexity; knowing when to defend values and worldview; having quality research and reputation as a defense; and positive and negative experiences with supervisors. Participants also discussed what was helpful in preparing them for value conflicts and the preparation they wished they would have received. The findings in this study emphasize the importance of the supervisory relationship and the impact that supervisors can have on trainees as they work through value conflicts. Training programs are also recommended to provide trainees guidance that will help prepare them to navigate potential value conflicts over the course of their professional development.

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The horrific terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, in America, and the bombing of a nightclub in Bali, Indonesia, have forced may people to seriously consider the impact of religion on political conflict. This literature review readdresses the serious neglect of religion in political studies by examining the three theoretical approaches to religion and political conflict, on the domestic and international level, that can be identified. Primordialists argue that differences in religious traditions should be viewed as one of the most important factors in explaining violent interactions in and between nations. They stress how differences in cultural identity and cosmologies can lead to violent conflict in and between nations. They illustrate how the deep malaise of modem secular society is leading to a backlash of alternative worldviews. This approach is culturally too simplistic in not providing a complex enough framework for understanding the dynamic social forces that constitute cultural identity. Instrumentalists admit that conflicts might be aggravated by diverging religious creeds but are rarel y if ever caused by them; instead most conflicts are about power and wealth. They emphasize the role played by political entrepreneurs, who use religion as an instrument to further their own goals. This approach is guilty of the other extreme - downplaying the role of religion and culture. Constructivists regard social conflicts as being embedded in cognitive structures like ideology, religion, nationalism and ethnicity. Constructivists can theorize about cultural identity, social structures, actors and forces together with the material world of power and wealth and are therefore best suited to give an adequate description of religion and political conflict. Despite its great promise constructivism still needs to step up to the board and deliver theories about religion and political conflict. The serious neglect of religion in political studies needs to be addressed and the most likely framework within which to do so seems to be constructivism.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die skokkende terroriste aanvalle op die World Trade Center en die Pentagon in Amerika en die bom in 'n nagklub in Bali, Indonesië, het baie mense gedwing om die impak van godsdiens op politieke konflik ernstig te oorweeg. Die literatuuroorsig herondersoek die ernstige verwaarloosing van godsdiens in politieke wetenskap weer eens, deur te kyk na die drie benaderings wat ten opsigte van godsdiens en politieke konflik, op plaaslike en internasionale vlak geïdentifiseer kan word. Primordialiste glo dat verskille tussen gosdienstradisies gesien moet word as een van die vernaamste faktore vir politieke konflik binne en tussen nasies. Hulle beklemtoon die wyse waarop verskille in kulturele identiteit en kosmologie kan bydra tot gewelddadige konflik binne en tussen nasies. Hulle illustreer verder hoe die diep malaise van die moderne sekulêre samelewing besig is om te lei tot 'n teenreaksie van alternatiewe wêreldbeskouings. Die benadering is egter kultureel gesproke te simplisties deurdat dit nie 'n raamwerk kan skep wat kompleks genoeg is ten einde die dinamies sosiale kragte wat kulturele identiteit vorm, te verstaan nie. Instrumentaliste gee toe dat politieke konflik dalk deur uiteenloopende godsdienstige tradisies vererger kan word, maar dat dit selde indien ooit daardeur veroorsaak word. Inteendeel, die meeste konflik handel steeds oor mag en rykdom. Hulle beklemtoon die rol wat gespeel word deur politieke entrepreneurs, wat geloof as 'n instrument gebruik in die bevordering van hulle eie doelwitte. Die benadering is skuldig aan die ander uiterste - die rol van kultuur en godsdiens word as minder belangrik beskou. Konstruktiviste beskou sosiale konflik as gewortel in kognitiewe strukture soos ideologie, godsdiens, nasionalisme en etnisiteit. Konstruktiviste kan teoretiseer oor kulturele identiteit, sosiale strukture, akteurs en kragte saam met die materiële wêreld wat bestaan uit mag en rykdom, en is daarom die beste geskik om 'n voldoende beskrywing te gee van godsdiens en politieke konflik. Ten spyte van die belowende potensiaal van konstruktivisme moet die perspektief nog begin om teorieë oor godsdiens en politieke konflik te verskaf. Die ernstige verwaarloosing van godsdiens in politieke wetenskap moet ondersoek word en die beste benadering hiervoor blyk konstruktivisme te wees.

Utilizando como referência de leitura e de investigação as idéias propostas por Bruno Latour, essa pesquisa tem como objetivo principal observar as porosidades entre religião/espiritualidade e terapêutica que dão o substrato argumentativo e conflitivo, e/ou dilemático, a respeito da relação entre a psicologia e as terapias alternativas. Este é o grande foco. O “alternativo” muda de status quando é submetido ao crivo da ciência, mas antes disso, ele já vem sendo amplamente utilizado pela sociedade, o que já não o faz tão “alternativo” assim. Há um movimento de “abertura” e de “fechamento” que torna as terapêuticas não legitimadas processualmente reconhecidas, como no caso da própria psicologia. Essa relação, ao ser sustentada pela adesão de muitos psicólogos a “outras terapias” vem convocando os Conselhos Federal e Regionais de Psicologia, no sentido de que se defina uma política reguladora mais consistente ou mais flexível. Para problematizar essa questão, investigo o psicólogo em ação, a partir da utilização de entrevistas, onde tenho como intuito perseguir as redes que se formam na sua prática, expressas a partir dos seus relatos. A proposta é a de realizar uma “etnografia da fala” sobre a prática psicoterapêutica. Além disso, desenvolvo um capítulo, em especial, a respeito do processo de institucionalização da acupuntura no Brasil e de sua inserção no meio psi.
Using as a reading and investigation frame of reference the ideas proposed by Bruno Latour, this research aims primarily at observing the porosity between religion/spirituality and therapeutics that confers argumentative and conflicting and/or dilemma-like underpinnings on the relationship between psychology and alternative therapies. This is the major focus. The “alternative” changes status when submitted to the scrutiny of science. But before that, it has already been widely employed by society, which renders it not so “alternative” anymore. There is a movement I call “opening” and “closing” that attributes to not yet legitimated therapies the quality of being recognized in process, as in the case of psychology itself. This relationship, as many psychologists enforce it by adhering to “other therapies”, has been urging the Federal and several Regional Psychology Councils to define a regulating policy which is either more consistent or more flexible. In order to ponder over this issue, I investigate the psychologist in action, deploying interviews that allow me to pursue the networks that his/her counseling creates, manifest in their reports. The proposal is to arrive at a so-called “ethnography of speech” about psychotherapeutic counseling. Besides, I bring a chapter which deals especially with the process of institutionalization of acupunture in Brazil, and with its insertion in the ‘psy-domain’.

Abstract:
This thesis aims to investigate the reddediyoruzdemonstrations that took place in the Northern Cyprus in 2016. As Turkey seems to be moving towards a totalitarian Islamist regime, this research aims to study the relation between the Turkish Cypriot community and Turkey. It seems that the relations between the two parties have been tense since the intention of Turkey to open a coordination office in North Cyprus to control the youth, sports and cultural activities with a power over the Turkish Cypriot institutions. The research explores the religious dimension of the tension between the two parties. Results have shown that the main concern of the demonstrations have been the Islamist policies of Turkey on Turkish Cypriots along with granting Turkey an unrestricted power over certain Turkish Cypriot institutions.

Abstract:
Esta dissertação visa estudar a influência que a educação sócio-cultural e religiosa exercem na educação sexual formal em escolas no Zimbabwe. Para a investigação, foi levantada a seguinte questão: "A educação sexual formal ministrada em escolas está a ser sublevada pela educação sexual adquirida através de normas socioculturais, religiosas das famílias Africanas?” Entretanto, se a educação sexual não é Afro-centrada e culturalmente relevante a nível do conteúdo, ela não pode ser efetiva e as mulheres jovens continuarão expostas aos maiores desafios sexuais de hoje. Ao responder a esta e outras questões da pesquisa, achámos o método qualitativo o mais apropriado para a recolha de dados culturalmente específicos e contextualmente ricos, pois, é esse o objetivo deste estudo. Através de entrevistas etnográficas, a intenção foi a de gravar vozes de jovens mulheres Shonas que, representam todo mosaico sócio-étnico do país. Isso permitiu-me obter informações consistentes e coerentes de como a sexualidade é definida e percebida entre os Shonas, e como a referida perceção se entrelaça com a instrução formal religiosa sobre a sexualidade. Outros instrumentos de recolha de informação para o nosso estudo incluíram análise minuciosa de livros escolares e de documentos do Ministério da Educação, Desporto e Cultura do Zimbabwe. Entre vários resultados curiosos produzidos pela pesquisa, o de maior realce revela que a educação sexual formal ministrada nas escolas no Zimbabwe não incorpora conteúdos suficientemente relevantes para os adolescentes sexualmente ativos. A inadequação baseia-se na abordagem não realista e errônea da abstinência como o método e resolução insuperável para os dilemas da sexualidade. Como desvantagem, a cultura e a religião também são vistas como desafios para a educação sexual efetiva nas escolas. Com base nesses resultados, o nosso estudo conclui com recomendações que devem ser levadas em consideração ao se elaborar um currículo de educação integral mais eficaz e operacional sobre educação sexual; ABSTRACT: Tensions and conflicts between formal and traditional sex education in Africa sub-Sahara This dissertation aims to investigate the interplay between the socio-religio-cultural aspects and formal sex education in schools in Zimbabwe. Because young women fall victim to most of the traditional, religio-cultural sexuality adversities, the research focuses on young Shona women. The study interrogates whether the formal sex education being taught in schools faces setbacks from sex education being instructed through African family socio-cultural and religious norms. Qualitative methodology was found to be the most appropriate for the production of culturally specific and contextually rich data that the research is aimed at. Collection of data was achieved through document analysis participant observation and ethnographic interviews. Of the many intriguing findings of this research, a major finding is that curricula is detached from overarching philosophical worldviews, cultural traditions, and the general actualities of sexually active teenagers. Its inadequacy is based on the unrealistic and erroneous approach to abstinence as the unsurpassable resolution to sexuality dilemmas. The study evidences that the deep-rootedness of some traditional practices, mythologies, and taboos associated with sexuality as well as the tenacity of some forms of traditional modes of sexuality education continue to exert a powerful influence on formal sexuality education in schools. The findings further reveals that the prescriptive and fear-based teaching methods do not foster enough critical thinking to empower students to face sexuality and reproductive health challenges. This viewpoint continues to play a significant role in shaping attitudes, beliefs, and values in relation to sexuality even in contemporary times. Based on these findings, the study con-cludes with recommendations for designers of sexuality education curricula to consider the convergent and divergent aspects and draw from strengths of the co-existing heritages in order to build an integrated sexuality education pedagogy that is culturally relevant for the young women in Zimbabwe.
