Abstract:
The goal of this project is to investigate the way in which various representations of Fidel Castro, between the years 1957-1965, have left an indelible mark on Cuba, transforming its landscape, I argue, through gendered means and conscious strategies. Thus it is less concerned with Fidel as an historical person than with examining with a gendered lens the ways in which he has been represented in foundational photographs, interviews, songs, and texts (both narrative and poetry as well as blogs). Drawing from theories of masculinity, which conceive masculinity as both a social construction and material body, my dissertation explores the ways in which these representations make visible a gendered body, mapping definitions of masculinity on Fidel, which are intimately linked to power. These constructions of Fidel’s masculinity, which are portrayed as hegemonic and a legitimating feature of patriarchal control, are a central feature of Fidel’s political authority and the Revolution’s hegemonizing project to shape Revolutionary men and women. I argue that representations of Fidel frequently invite a gendered encounter between the Comandante and his followers, resulting in the production of gendered Revolutionary subjects. The present study adds to current scholarship by shedding light on the ways in which gender foregrounds politics by problematizing the ways in which men are often at the center of political discourse. By decoding the foundations of Fidel’s “gendered” power, we find it to be a construction whose maintenance depends on the body’s ability to conform to hegemonic definitions of masculinity, thus reinforcing rather than Revolutionizing masculine paradigms of authority.

A história das oposições é um tema fundamental para entender a Revolução Cubana. As manifestações de desacordo com processo revolucionário foram simultâneas ao triunfo de 1 de Janeiro de 1959 e nos anos posteriores se desenvolveram a partir de condicionamentos internos e externos. Nessa dissertação, analisamos a representação feita por Fidel Castro dos contrarrevolucionários e dos dissidentes e de que forma os atores e setores que participaram daquela história se tornaram obstáculos para o desenvolvimento do projeto político formulado pelo grupo encabeçado por Castro. Utilizamos os discursos pronunciados por Fidel entre os anos de 1959 a 1962 para investigarmos a relação existente entre a representação das oposições feita pelo comandante e o processo de centralização política em torno de um núcleo dirigente.

Abstract:
The political ideologies that Martí envisioned of an America free from the inherited yoke of European ideals were taken by Fidel Castro as an anti-imperialist discourse. Therefore, Marti’s political vision on the power that the United States began to carry out at the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century was an excellent strategy to establish the anti-imperialist character of the Cuban revolution. Since 1961, Castro set Martí as the face of his Marxist-Leninist ideology to institute his anti-American philosophy; Castro created a myth of Marti’s persona, and converted him into the bastion of his political ideology. As a result, Castro distorted the revolutionary ideas of Marti’s. Castro proposed his ideas out of context and portrayed the incorrect idea of this great thinker and poet. Martí’s human ethic and love for the independence of Cuba placed Martí as a liberator of revolutionary and progressive ideas of his generation. Martí was not thought as a dictator and never was a man who lacked democratic values. The expressed analytical assimilation of Martí on his sociopolitical and economic juncture that was presented in America and Cuba was used to trace the political anti-imperialist propaganda by the dictatorial regime lead by Castro. This thesis will emphasize the persona of Jose Martí as a revolutionary, visionary and educator of his generation, then it will present the incorrect interpretation of Marti’s ideology by Fidel Castro, as an ideal to embark his revolution. Finally, the differences of his ideas in contrast to the political and social ideology of the Cuban revolution will be explained.

O presente trabalho é resultado da pesquisa de mestrado do Programa de Pós-Graduação em Serviço Social da Universidade Federal de Juiz de Fora (PPGSS/UFJF), que teve por objetivo analisar como a participação na ocupação Fidel Castro, na cidade de Uberlândia – MG, do Movimento dos Trabalhadores Sem-Teto – MTST, contribuiu para o processo de formação de uma consciência crítica e reflexiva da realidade. Buscamos compreender qual era a visão dos sujeitos antes e após o ingresso no movimento, identificando assim, as possíveis transformações na percepção e análise acerca da realidade, do mundo e de si mesmo. Para construção deste estudo, optamos por uma base teórico-metodológica que busca a compreensão da totalidade das relações, o materialismo histórico e dialético. Desta forma, esta é uma pesquisa qualitativa que visa a compreensão da percepção dos sujeitos inseridos em um território específico que é a ocupação do MTST. Para atingir os objetivos propostos neste trabalho, iniciamos um levantamento de estudos referentes ao MTST, bem como de autores e produções relacionados à temática da formação da consciência articulada ao processo de produção e reprodução do sistema do capital. Com a realização da pesquisa de campo procuramos verificar no cotidiano dos sujeitos, como acontece esse processo de formação da consciência crítica. Para tanto, utilizamos um estudo de caso da ocupação Fidel Castro. Neste sentido, organizamos esta dissertação da seguinte forma: no primeiro capítulo apresentamos reflexões acerca do processo de reprodução do capital e, de como este processo implica em uma forma específica de produção do espaço, abordando a questão habitacional e as formas de luta e resistência dos sujeitos para garantia desse direito, com enfoque para atuação do MTST. No segundo capítulo, abordamos algumas categorias e elementos que foram norteadoras para a compreensão do processo de formação da consciência como: classe, luta de classes, alienação, consciência “em si” e “para si”, emancipação política e humana e cotidiano. Finalmente, no terceiro capítulo apresentamos os dados e análises coletados durante a pesquisa de campo, fazendo a articulação com o debate já apresentado. Os resultados finais deste estudo nos possibilitaram compreender que a participação em uma ocupação do MTST contribuiu para o processo de formação de uma consciência crítica dos sujeitos, principalmente no que se refere à dimensão e noção de direitos e da necessidade de organização e luta para sua defesa. É certo que esta discussão não pode ser esgotada. Pelo contrário, o caminho trilhado para o desenvolvimento da pesquisa trouxe novas indagações e questionamentos que carecem de investigação.
The present study is a result of the Master's research of the Post-Graduation Program in Social Service of the Universidade Federal de Juiz de Fora (PPGSS / UFJF), whose objective was to analyze how participation in the Fidel Castro occupation, in the city of Uberlândia - MG , of the Movimento dos Trabalhadores Sem-Teto - MTST contributed to the process of forming a critical and reflective consciousness of reality. We sought to understand the vision of the subjects before and after joining the movement, thus identifying possible transformations in perception and analysis about reality, the world and itself. To construct this study, we opted for a theoretical-methodological basis that seeks to understand the totality of relations, historical and dialectical materialism. In this way, this is a qualitative research that aims at understanding the perception of the subjects inserted in a specific territory that is the occupation of the MTST. To reach the objectives proposed in this work, we began a survey of studies related to the MTST, as well as authors and productions related to the theme of the formation of the articulated consciousness to the process of production and reproduction of the capital system. With the accomplishment of the field research we try to verify in the subjects' daily life, as it happens this process of formation of the critical conscience. To do so, we used a case study of the Fidel Castro occupation. In this sense, we organized this dissertation in the following way: in the first chapter we present reflections on the process of reproduction of capital and how this process implies a specific form of space production, addressing the housing issue and the forms of struggle and resistance of the subject to guarantee this right, with focus for MTST action. In the second chapter, we briefly present the debate on social movements, analyzing how the MTST fits into this discussion. We also approach some categories and elements that were guiding for the understanding of the process of formation of the consciousness as: class, class struggle, alienation, consciousness "in itself" and "for itself", political and human emancipation. Finally, in the third chapter we present the data and analyzes collected during the field research, making articulation with the debate already presented. The final results of this study enabled us to understand that participation in an occupation of the MTST contributed to the process of forming a critical awareness of the subjects, mainly regarding the dimension and notion of rights and the need to organize and fight for their defense . Admittedly, this discussion can not be exhausted. On the contrary, the path taken for the development of research has brought new questions and questions that need investigation.

Abstract:
This study employs semiotic methods to identify the post-revolutionary roles of former Cuban President Fidel Castro in order to classify the transformations of his character portrayal over time. Informed by Goffman's framing theory as well as suggestions of agenda-setting and priming, this qualitative study analyzes 19 propaganda posters for communications of encoded messages. In this medium, the research explores thematic patterns of sociopolitical and sociocultural signs which add to the richness of Castro's appeal. In addition to providing a unique perspective on interrogating visual images, this study offers a better understanding of the influential power of professional design and the use of semiotics in political propaganda.

Full text
Abstract:
Les relations entre Cuba et les Etats-Unis sont conflictuelles depuis plus d’un demi-siècle, plus précisément depuis l’arrivée de Fidel Castro au pouvoir le 1er janvier 1959. Cette étude porte sur le régime du général Fulgencio Batista (1952-1958) et plus particulièrement sur la guerre civile cubaine – période de vingt-cinq mois allant du débarquement des révolutionnaires cubains menés par Castro le 2 décembre 1956 à la fuite de Batista le 1er janvier 1959. L’analyse de cette période est cruciale pour comprendre les raisons de l’émergence d’un puissant mouvement à Cuba et de la transformation politique, économique et sociale la plus radicale de l’histoire de l’Amérique latine, mettant ainsi un terme à près de soixante ans d’hégémonie étasunienne sur l’île des Caraïbes (1898-1958). Elle permet également de saisir les enjeux actuels du conflit bilatéral qui oppose Washington et La Havane. L’interventionnisme des Etats-Unis, tant politique que militaire, dans les affaires internes cubaines en vue de protéger leurs propres intérêts économiques et stratégiques était une norme qui était de mise durant toute la période républicaine (1902-1958). L’objectif de cette étude consiste à analyser en profondeur la politique étrangère de l’administration Eisenhower vis-à-vis de Cuba durant toute la guerre civile cubaine qui opposa principalement le Mouvement 26 Juillet de Castro et ses alliés au régime de Batista. L’hostilité persistante de Washington à l’égard de Cuba vingt ans après la disparition de l’Union soviétique illustre le constat que les rapports bilatéraux entre les deux nations ne peuvent être analysés seulement à l’aune de la Guerre Froide
Relations between Cuba and the United States have been troubled for more than half a century, more precisely since Fidel Castro's arrival to power on January 1, 1959. This study concerns the regime of General Fulgencio Batista (1952-1958) and particularly the Cuban civil war - the twenty-five month period from the landing of Cuban revolutionaries led by Castro on December 2, 1956 to the flight of Batista on January 1, 1959. The analysis of this period is crucial to understanding the reasons for the emergence of a powerful movement in Cuba and the most radical political, economic and social transformation in the history of Latin America, which ended nearly sixty years of American hegemony over the Caribbean island (1898-1958). It also provides an understanding of the essence of the current bilateral conflict between Washington and Havana. U.S. intervention, both politically and militarily, in Cuban internal affairs in order to protect its own strategic and economic interests was the norm throughout Cuba's Republican era (1902-1958). The aim of this study is an in depth analysis of the foreign policy of the Eisenhower administration towards Cuba throughout the Cuban civil war, which primarily pitted Castro's 26th of July Movement and his allies against the Batista regime. Washington's persistent hostility towards Cuba twenty years after the demise of the Soviet Union illustrates the finding that bilateral relations between both nations can not be analyzed only through the framework of the Cold War

Abstract:
This thesis explores the effect that nationalism had on the spread of communism to Vietnam and Cuba during the first half of the twentieth century. Using a case studies approach to analyze the revolution of Ho Chi Minh in Vietnam and Fidel Castro in Cuba, the thesis seeks to determine the extent to which nationalism directed these revolutions and their turn to communism once assuming power. The study examines the conditions that existed in each country that allowed for a nationalist revolution to be successful, and the beliefs and rhetoric of Ho Chi Minh and Fidel Castro, the primary figures of each revolution. The thesis seeks to add to the research conducted on the power that nationalism had in the Third World from the early 1900s to 1960, and it wishes to contribute to the factors that must be considered by foreign policy makers when pursuing military action or nation-building abroad. The research shows that nationalism played a significant role in bringing communism to Vietnam and Cuba, yet due to the difficulty in measuring a core human feeling like nationalism, other factors cannot be discounted.

Full text
Abstract:
Since granted world heritage status by the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) in 1982, Old Havana has been the site of contested heritage practices. Critics consider UNESCO’s definition of the 143 hectare walled city center a discriminatory delineation strategy that primes the colonial core for tourist consumption at the expense of other parts of the city. To neatly bound Havana’s collective memory/history within its “old” core, they say, is to museumize the city as ”frozen in time,” sharply distinguishing the “historic” from the “vernacular.”While many consider heritage practices to resist globalization, in Havana they embody a complex entanglement of global and local forces. The Soviet Union’s collapse in 1991 triggered a crippling recession during what Fidel Castro called a“Special Period in a Time of Peace.” In response, Castro redeveloped international tourism—long demonized by the Revolution as associated with capitalist “evils”—in order to capture the foreign currency needed to maintain the state’s centralized economy. Paradoxically, the re-emergence of international tourism in socialist Cuba triggered similar inequalities found in pre-Revolutionary Havana: a dual-currency economy, government-owned retail (capturing U.S. dollars at the expense of Cuban Pesos), and zoning mechanisms to “protect” Cubanos from the “evils” of the tourism, hospitality, and leisure industries. Using the tropes of “heritage”and “identity,” preservation practices fueled tourism while allocating the proceeds toward urban development, using capitalism to sustain socialism. This paper briefly traces the geopolitics of 20th century development in Havana, particularly in relation to tourism. It then analyzes tourism in relation to preservation / restoration practices in Old Havana using the Plaza Vieja (Old Square)—Old Havana’ssecond oldest and most restored urban space—as a case study. In doing so, it exposes preservation/ restoration as a dynamic and politically complex practice that operates across scales and ideologies, institutionalizing history and memory as an urban design and identity construction strategy. The paper ends with a discussion on the implications of such practices for a rapidly changing Cuba.

Abstract:
La Fuerza Aérea Colombiana (en adelante FAC) ha promovido la inclusión y participación de la mujer en todas sus dependencias, destacando sus cualidades y potenciando sus capacidades para desempeñarse en cargos que hasta hace unas décadas solo eran desempeñados por hombres. En enero de 1997 ingresó la primera promoción de cadetes femeninas a la Escuela Militar de Aviación (en adelante EMAVI), con el propósito de prepararse para cumplir la misión encomendada de ese entonces año 2007, a saber; “proteger y defender la soberanía, la independencia, la integridad territorial y el orden constitucional” , no solo desde el campo de batalla sino desde cualquiera de las áreas administrativas comprendidas en la estructura organizacional, evidenciando de esta manera sus capacidades en las especialidades de la institución militar. Un hito importante fue, por ejemplo, la primera tripulación femenina del helicóptero BlackHawk al mando de una mujer piloto y a partir de allí múltiples acontecimientos de suma importancia institucional en donde la mujer ha desempeñado un rol fundamental. En el año 2003 inicia la carrera de Ingeniería Informática en la EMAVI, al cual pueden acceder damas con los mismos requisitos académicos y conocimientos que el personal masculino, que durante 4 años tendrán la formación requerida para obtener el título profesional como Ingeniera Informática. Estas integras mujeres se han desempeñado en las diferentes especialidades del Cuerpo Logístico, Seguridad y Defensa de Bases y Vuelo, como es el caso de la Mayor Alexandra Zabala, quien, como Ingeniera Informática, ha apoyado el cumplimiento de la misión a través de los diferentes cargos en el área de inteligencia; así como los aportes relacionados con la producción académica orientados al desarrollo tecnológico de la Fuerza Aérea Colombiana en lo relacionado con ciberseguridad y ciberdefensa. Desde otro ámbito, la Subteniente Verónica Tabares ha tenido la oportunidad de ejercer su profesión en el cargo de Jefe del Escuadrón de Comunicaciones terrestres y Jefe del Escuadrón Telemática de la EMAVI y en la actualidad se encuentra realizando el curso de Operadora de Aeronaves Remotamente Tripuladas. Las experiencias de estas dos ingenieras y Oficiales de la FAC se socializarán como un ejemplo del invaluable aporte de la mujer ingeniera en la institución. Se hará énfasis en la oportunidad que se brinda a las mujeres de vincularse a la FAC y el enfoque de igualdad y equidad de género que les permite participar con sus pares hombres en el ámbito militar y profesional de la ingeniería, y que, a pesar de ser una minoría, han demostrado sus capacidades en los diferentes roles asignados, dejando en alto el nombre de la institución.

Abstract:
Nos últimos anos, a indústria de jogos para dispositivos móveis apresenta um constante crescimento. Desde usuários casuais até os mais competitivos, os consumidores desta plataforma estão ficando mais engajados com as diversas experiências que os jogos mobile podem oferecer. Manter um jogador fiel ao seu produto não é um desafio fácil a ser enfrentado por seus desenvolvedores. Além de proporcionar experiências positivas, que normalmente implicam no sentimento de diversão, os desenvolvedores devem se preocupar com a equidade entre as escolhas e desafios ofertados ao jogador, por exemplo, personagens, itens, inimigos etc. Assim, cada vez mais, as produtoras estão explorando as técnicas de balanceamento nos jogos para entregar experiências mais ricas e desafiadoras aos jogadores. Nesse contexto, este trabalho relata um estudo de caso comparativo entre as premissas de balanceamento propostas pelos game designers e os resultados numéricos observados em um conjunto de dados de resultados de batalhas do jogo Clash Royale. Foram utilizados os conhecimentos das áreas de estatística e design de jogos para analisar dados correspondentes aos aspectos competitivos.

Abstract:
El creciente interés por investigar y analizar las relaciones entre arquitectura y fotografía puede abordarse desde enfoques generales o dimensiones más especulativas, pero también desde casos de estudio más específicos. En esta ocasión, nos encontramos frente al análisis directo de las imágenes que componen el archivo fotográfico de Francisco de Asís Cabrero y a los negativos originales del que fuera su fotógrafo de cabecera, Jesús García Férriz. Salvo contadas excepciones no es posible datar colaboración entre Asís Cabrero y otro fotógrafo que no sea Jesús García Férriz, de forma inversa, no es sencillo acreditar que Férriz hiciera reportajes de arquitectura para otros arquitectos. Esta doble afirmación, pone sobre la mesa un caso de estudio apenas conocido e inexplorado hasta la fecha. Ambos profesionales trabajaron casi en exclusividad alrededor de tres décadas, creándose entre ellos un estrecho y fiel vínculo profesional que constituye en el ámbito de la arquitectura moderna española, un caso único de radical confianza y complicidad entre un arquitecto y su fotógrafo. Los frutos de esta longeva relación, fueron unas fotografías de enorme calidad técnica, las cuales fueron publicadas múltiples veces en los medios de la época. La condición exclusiva de esta relación, la calidad de las imágenes y el trabajo entre ambos profesionales, pone sobre la mesa un caso de estudio único de enorme interés especulativo para ahondar en los entresijos del maridaje arquitectura-fotografía. Abordamos así en este caso específico, bajo el análisis de este material inédito y las relaciones entre sus agentes protagonistas, las sinergias entre arquitectura y fotografía, para estudiar el rol que desempeña la imagen de arquitectura en la transmisión mediática, historiográfica y disciplinar de la arquitectura, así como en el proceso creador del proyecto. La revisión de este material inédito y novedoso, por tanto, abre el camino para profundizar en el estudio explícito de las aportaciones disciplinares de la fotografía en el ámbito de la arquitectura a partir de este caso de estudio paradigmático. Nos parece oportuno presentar en el contexto de este congreso esta investigación —asociada a una tesis doctoral en curso llevada a cabo desde el programa de doctorado en arquitectura de la Universidad de Zaragoza— ya que pone de manifiesto la importancia de entender la investigación en fotografía como algo que trasciende su propio ámbito disciplinar. Investigar en fotografía desde disciplinas periféricas a ella —la arquitectura en este caso— refuerza la riqueza especulativa derivada de la diversidad de sus géneros al tiempo que apuntala la imperiosa necesidad de repensar la fotografía desde su fructífera transversalidad epistemológica.
