Full textAt a time when technology seems increasingly poised to render the material realities of its users obsolete, putting the body back into digital media has become a matter of pressing social significance. Scholars like Lisa Nakamura have written compellingly about the importance of attending to the embodied identities of those who sit behind the screen: a crucial step toward disrupting the systems of inequality that characterize much of twenty-first-century Western digital culture. Similarly dedicated to issues of social justice, this project argues for turning attention to another essential element of the relationship between technology and the body: how digital media makes users feel. Far from being disembodied, digital tools have become crucial platforms for expressions of selfhood and desire. Yet, on a phenomenological level, virtual experiences also have a surprising capacity to directly affect the real, physical body. To demonstrate this, this project maps a network of key examples that illustrate how pain and pleasure—commonly imagined as the most embodied sensations—have in fact been brought to life through a range of media forms.
Beginning with the novels of the Marquis de Sade, Leopold von Sacher-Masoch, and Pauline Réage, this project contends that concepts of sadomasochism and literature have evolved side by side for more than two centuries. Moving from textual to visual forms, the project turns to Pier Pasolini’s Salò, a film that notoriously “hurts to watch,” to investigate the intersection of violence, complicity, and viewership. Next, the project moves into the digital realm, offering a reading of the erotic power exchange that drives video-game interactivity. In the final chapter, the project explores digital BDSM: practices of bondage, discipline, sadism, and masochism that take place entirely in virtual spaces. Across these chapters, the project argues for the value of “kink” as a critical lens, much like the “queerness” in queer studies, which underscores the cultural and personal significance of experiences that hurt. Together, the works and cultures considered here bring much-needed attention to the place of non-normative desires in media, both digital and non-digital. They also serve to productively challenge the perceived divide between the “virtual” and the “real.”

PROGRAMA DE SUPORTE À PÓS-GRADUAÇÃO DE INSTS. DE ENSINO
Apesar de ser um tema pouco divulgado tanto publicamente quanto dentro da própria classe musical, é grande o número de músicos que sofre com dores, desconfortos e até mesmo lesões e outros problemas de saúde decorrentes da atividade musical. A respeito disso se têm observado, nas últimas décadas, um crescente interesse de pesquisadores, principalmente da área da saúde, o que faz com que já existe uma considerável bibliografia sobre o assunto. Entretanto, ainda existem muitas lacunas de conhecimento que precisam ser preenchidas a fim de tornar a prática musical (profissional ou não) menos prejudicial à saúde de seus praticantes. Esta pesquisa, de caráter exploratório, investiga o tema numa amostra de 39 músicos instrumentistas da cidade de Manaus, dando ênfase às questões emocionais envolvidas na prática e sobre como elas podem interferir na percepção desses constrangimentos por parte dos indivíduos. Um dos pontos centrais abordados é a questão de que a prática musical seria uma situação favorável à ocorrência do estado de flow (CSIKSZENTMIHALYI, 1997), o que justificaria o fato de muitos músicos nem perceberem as dores e desconfortos durante a execução das atividades. Foi aplicado junto a esses respondentes um instrumento de coleta de dados composto de quatro partes: um questionário com informações gerais sobre a prática musical e os constrangimentos; um processo de ordenação de cartões com emoções/sentimentos presentes na prática; uma série de escalas de avaliação tratando do estado de flow e da cultura da dedicação presente no meio musical; e uma entrevista final visando ter opiniões mais aprofundadas dos músicos a respeito do tema tratado. Os dados coletados foram cruzados e analisados e os resultados apontam, entre outras coisas, que a prática musical, dentro dessa amostra, apresenta características similares às encontradas nas ocorrências do estado de flow e ainda contam da importância das questões emocionais na prática, de acordo com a opinião dos músicos participantes.
Despite being a little divulged issue both publicly and within the musical class, is high the number of musicians who suffer from pains, discomforts and even injuries and other health problems associated with the musical activity. About this, have been observed in recent decades, a growing interest from researchers, especially in the health area, which means there is already a considerable literature on the subject. However, there are still many knowledge gaps that need to be filled in order to make the musical practice (professional or not) less harmful.This study, which has an exploratory character, investigates this issue with a sample of 39 instrumentalists from Manaus, emphasizing the emotional aspects involved in the practice and how they can interfere in the perception of the constraints of these individuals. One of the main points discussed is that musical practice would be a favorable situation to occurrence of flow state (CSIKSZENTMIHALYI, 1997) what could justify the fact that many musicians don’t even realize the pain and injuries during the execution of the activity. It was applied at these respondents an instrument of data collection consisted on four parts: a questionnaire with general information about musical practice and constraints; a process of ordination of cards containing emotions/feelings involved in the practiced; a series of assessments scales about the flow state and about the dedication culture that exists in the musical environment; and a final interview seeking for more deeper opinions from musicians about the issue. The collected data were crossed and analyzed and the results indicate, among other conclusions, that musical practice from this sample, has similar characteristics from other where flow state is found, and still contain the importance of emotional matters in the practice, according to the participants musicians.

This experiment system provides a mechanism to study hedonic sensory integration in human subjects with specific focus on interaction between pain and pleasure. The system allows creation of stimuli segments with varying degrees of intensity and change based on subject's own discomfort thresholds and provides analysis mechanisms which illustrate the impact of mixing concurrent pain and pleasure.

Full textSmärta har en historisk tradition av att uppfattats som njutningens motsats. Smärtans ställning som alltigenom negativ ses ofta som en ”sanning” som inte kan motsägas. Dock finns det individer som njuter av smärta på ett sexuellt plan, så kallade masochister. I denna studie undersöker författaren hur masochisterna själva beskriver relationen mellan smärta och njutning. Den tidigare forskningen fokuserar mestadels på den dominante partens problematiker och upplevelser i en sadomasochistisk situation och utelämnar därmed masochistens syn på smärta, njutning och risker.
Genom att använda sig av Grundad Teori försöker författaren att förutsättningslöst kartlägga den masochistiska upplevelsen av smärta och njutning och utarbetar en teori om masochistens syn på sin egen avvikelse och utveckling, på förstärkning av känsla och den personliga förhöjningen och känslan av att befinna sig i ett ”tillstånd” i den masochistiska leken, den fullständiga tilltron till partnern och på den ömsesidiga kommunikationen, de egna avvägningarna och gränsdragningarna och hur de ser njutning och smärta som i symbios. Alla dessa aspekter leder fram till en känsla av frihet. I diskussionen används Mays teorier om frihet och öde tillsammans med Eberhards teorier om riskbedömningar, vilka bägge innefattar tankar kring ”negativa” förnimmelser som ångest, rädsla och vrede.
Det blir klart att alla negativa förnimmelser har både ”skadliga” och ”normala” former. Det masochisterna upplever i leken är en form av ”normal smärta” som inte har några negativa beståndsdelar utan som fungerar som en utvecklingsmekanik och en språngbräda för att uppnå frihet.

Full textThis study is the result of a survey conducted in a Private Institution of Higher Education. What motivated this study, specifically, the performance of managers with respect to clinical studies of psychodynamic work, stems from the need to study the subjectivity of the worker. This is a case study of a descriptive and exploratory, based on clinical studies of psychodynamic work. The overall goal of the research was to examine the subjective experiences of managers of a private IES in relation to their work. The specific objectives was to: gather information on the functions of management in the higher education institution; know the organization of work; analyze working conditions; analyze labor relations; analyze the experiences of pleasure and pain related to work as managers; examine the coping strategies used by managers to deal with the suffering that comes from work. Thus, the problem of this research which seeks to analyze the experiences of managers of a private institution, in relation to their work. For data collection were conducted six meetings of collective discussion, supported the research for the categories presented by Dejours: the first major category covers the organization of work, labor relations and working conditions, the second major category studied mobilization subjective and the third large category that includes suffering, defenses and pathologies. The study gathered six managers who worked in the same hierarchical level. The technique for data analysis was the analysis thematic category. After transcribing the data, analyzes were performed frequency of appearance of the text elements and perform the analysis of the relationship between the categories studied. The data indicate that the organization's work is characterized by the existence of rules and norms of the organization, prioritization of work, lack of direct benefits, rigidity of working hours, imposing a hierarchical structure and vertical, extreme lack of autonomy, lack of recognition and subordination to the leadership and work overload. There is a predominance of experiences of suffering arising from work organization. However, regarding the experiences of pleasure, managers consider working relationships with peers which in turn are held in a friendly, encouraging social and professional relationships, as well as the satisfaction, pride and sense at work. The subjective mobilization, allows the worker to have pleasure and strategies that make the real happening. Some collective defenses to face the difficulties related to work were analyzed, as well as the physical and psychosocial damage that allowed feel physical symptoms resulting from work situations and thus can interfere with social and family life. Coping strategies used to indicate denial and / or rationalization of labor in the form of: conformism, submission and / or acceptance, especially with regard to the organization and working conditions.
O presente estudo é resultado de uma pesquisa realizada em uma Instituição de Educação Superior Privada. O que motivou a realização deste estudo, especificamente, a atuação dos gestores no que tange aos estudos da clínica psicodinâmica do trabalho, decorre da necessidade de se estudar a subjetividade do trabalhador . Trata-se de um estudo de caso de caráter descritivo e exploratório, baseado nos estudos da clinica psicodinâmica do trabalho. O objetivo geral da pesquisa consistiu em analisar as vivências subjetivas dos gestores de uma IES privada em relação ao seu trabalho. Os objetivos específicos consistiu em: levantar informações sobre as funções de gestão na instituição de educação superior; conhecer a organização do trabalho; analisar as condições de trabalho; analisar as relações de trabalho; analisar as vivências de prazer e sofrimento relacionadas ao trabalho como gestores; analisar as estratégias de enfrentamento utilizadas pelos gestores para lidar com o sofrimento advindo do trabalho. Assim, o problema desta pesquisa buscou analisar quais as vivências dos gestores de uma IES privada, em relação ao seu trabalho. Para a coleta de dados foram realizadas seis reuniões de discussão coletiva, tendo como suporte para a pesquisa as categorias apresentadas por Dejours: a primeira grande categoria aborda a organização do trabalho; as relações de trabalho e as condições de trabalho; a segunda grande categoria estuda a mobilização subjetiva e a terceira grande categoria que contempla o sofrimento, as defesas e patologias. Participaram desta pesquisa seis gestores que atuavam no mesmo nível hierárquico. A técnica para análise dos dados foi a análise categorial temática. Após a transcrição dos dados, foram feitas as análises de freqüência de aparição dos elementos do texto e a realização da análise da relação entre as categorias estudadas. Os dados indicam que a organização do trabalho é caracterizada por existência de regras e normas da organização; hierarquização de trabalho, ausência de benefícios diretos, rigidez de horário de trabalho, imposição de uma estrutura hierarquizada e verticalizada, extrema falta de autonomia, falta de reconhecimento e subordinação à chefia e a sobrecarga de trabalho. Há a predominância de vivências de sofrimento decorrentes da organização do trabalho. Porém, referente as vivências de prazer, os gestores consideram as relações de trabalho com os pares que por sua vez são mantidas de forma amigável, favorecendo os relacionamentos sócio-profissionais; assim como a satisfação, o orgulho e o sentido no trabalho. A mobilização subjetiva, possibilita o trabalhador ter prazer e estratégias que fazem com que o real aconteça. Algumas defesas coletivas de enfrentarem as dificuldades referentes ao trabalho foram analisadas, bem como os danos físicos e psicossociais que possibilitaram sentirem sintomas físicos decorrentes das situações de trabalho e assim poder interferir na vida social e familiar. As estratégias de enfrentamento utilizadas indicam a negação e/ou a racionalização do trabalho em forma de: conformismo, submissão e/ou aceitação, especialmente com relação à organização e as condições de trabalho.

La corrida de calle es un fenómeno que se ha destacado en los contextos urbanos brasileros, consolidándose, inclusive, como el segundo deporta más practicado en el año 2011. En este contexto, el/la corredor/a se ha transformado en una figura estratégica para reflexionar a respecto de las producciones y reproducciones corporales y subjetivas de la época actual, marcada por una competitividad e el paradigma de la auto superación. A partir de lo expuesto, los objetivos que orientan la investigación consisten en a) analizar la producción de determinado tipo de subjetividad característico de la práctica de corrida para b) reflexionar sobre los diálogos con un tipo de racionalidad que caracteriza al sujeto neoliberal. Para responder a esos objetivos, desarrollamos una investigación etnográfica en un período de dieciocho meses en la ciudad de São Carlos, interior de São Paulo, en la cual buscamos acompañar dos grupos de corrida de hombres y mujeres, caracterizados por diversos niveles de compromiso con la práctica. Con la finalidad de presentar los resultados de la investigación etnográfica y bibliográfica, el texto se presenta dividido en tres secciones. En la primera sección, trabajamos con la construcción de una estética corporal vinculada a la salud y a la cualidad de vida como caminos posibles de elección, así como la construcción de una matriz moral en torno a esas dimensiones. En la segunda, nos focalizamos en el análisis de los elementos que permiten una comparación con la figura teórica del hombre-empresa. Finalmente en la tercera sección, abordamos la producción y reproducción del dolor y el placer así como los diálogos con el tipo de subjetividad neoliberal
The street run is a phenomenon that has stood out in the Brazilian urban contexts, consolidating, inclusively, as the second sport more practiced in 2011. In this context, the runner has become a strategic reflective figure on the productions and reproductions of the body and the subjective of the current age, marked by a competitiveness and the paradigm of self-improvement. Based on the above, the objectives that guide this research consist of a) analyze the production of a certain type of subjectivity characteristic by the practice of street run to b) reflect on the dialogues with a type of rationality that characterizes the neoliberal subject. In order to respond these objectives, we conducted an ethnographic research over a period of eighteen months in the city of São Carlos, interior of São Paulo, in which we sought to accompany two groups of men and women, characterized by different levels of commitment to practice. In order to present the results of ethnographic and bibliographical research, the text is divided into three sections. In the first section, we work with the construction of a physical aesthetic linked to health and life´s quality as possible ways of choosing, as well as the construction of a moral pattern around those dimensions. In the second, we focus on the elements’ analysis that allow a comparison with the theoretical figure of the man-company. Finally, in the third section, we take in account the production and reproduction of pain and pleasure as well as the dialogues with the neoliberal subjectivity type.

Full textThis work aims to investigate some functions of silence on the psychoanalytic pratice. In his psychoanalytic space, where the core of the work is talking, dialoguing, the silent experiences can upset the analyst s capacity of observation and apprehension of the psychic reality, since some observable elements become unavailable. The adopted method is my own poetic style and, through the poetic bond established with the reader, I propose to expand the knowledge, reflections and comprehension of silent situations. I make an analogy with the musical technique of counterpoint using trhee principal and simultaneous events, or voices: Beethoven s, John Milton s and my own, interrelated around the theme of silence during all the narrative. My hypothesis is that it is possible that the being/not being can reveal and/or hide itself through silence, pregnant of mental pain. In this trajectory, I did not come across the silence by itself, but with the process of silence and, at the end, I found the silence as mental pain and pleasure
O objetivo deste trabalho é investigar algumas funções do silenciar na clínica psicanalítica. Neste espaço psicanalítico, no qual o cerne do trabalho é o conversar, o dialogar, as experiências silenciosas podem dificultar a capacidade de observação e apreensão da realidade psíquica por parte do analista, uma vez que alguns elementos observáveis ficam indisponíveis. O método adotado é o meu próprio estilo poético e, através do vínculo poético estabelecido com o leitor, proponho expandir nossos conhecimentos, nossas reflexões e compreensão sobre as situações silenciosas. Faço analogia com a técnica contrapontística musical no sentido de que utilizo três principais acontecimentos simultâneos, ou, vozes: de Beethoven, de John Milton e a minha própria voz que se inter-relacionam em torno do tema do silenciar durante toda a narrativa. Minha hipótese é a de que seja possível que o ser/não ser possa revelar-se e/ou ocultar-se através do silêncio, pregnante de dor mental. Nesta trajetória, fui deparando não com o silêncio, coisa-em-si, mas com o processo de silenciar e, ao final, encontrei o silenciar como dor e prazer mentais

Full textTrata-se de uma pesquisa quantitativa, cujo objetivo foi identificar e mensurar as manifestações de prazer-sofrimento dos trabalhadores terceirizados da higiene e limpeza de um hospital público. Foram utilizados como instrumentos de coleta de dados, o levantamento de dados sóciodemográficos e laborais e a escala de indicadores de prazer e sofrimento no trabalho (EIPST). Os dados foram analisados através do programa estatístico SPSS. Os resultados apontam que a grande maioria destes trabalhadores são mulheres e nos momentos de folga dão prioridade para passar um tempo com a família, realizar os afazeres domésticos, passear e viajar. Já os desejos para o futuro são um emprego melhor e ter saúde. Ao mensurar o prazer e sofrimento destes trabalhadores constatou-se que a Realização Profissional e Reconhecimento neste local de trabalho são fontes de prazer e o sofrimento surge da Falta de Liberdade de Expressão e do Esgotamento Emocional.

Full textINTRODUCTION: The Community Health Agent (ACS) is the link between the community and the health system in the Program of Health of the Family. His work is outlined on the direct contact with the local community and configures itself as a possibility of communication and access to the health services. He is the sole worker of the health staff that has as a professional requirement to inhabit in the community where he works. The objective of the research was to to be acquainted with the subjective aspects of the work of the community health agent related to the fact of living and work in the same community. METHODS: Was developed an analyses of the content in the following documents \'Report of the Analysis of the Psychodynamic of the Work with ACS of Pirituba/São Paulo\' and \'Notations of the group sessions\'. A naïve reading of documents notes was primarirely performed. This was followed by a structural analyses to identify the categories with meaningful connections to the research objeticves. The theory of the Psychodynamic of the Work was the theoretical referencial used to interpret the results of the research. RESULTS: It had been presented in the following categories: 1. Construction of the credibility and the relations of work: ACS and users; 2. Credibility versus privacy invasion of the inhabitants of the community; 3. Privacy of the ACS and his family; 4. Relation with the community and the health service as resident of the region; 5. Construction of an ethics: focus in the user\'s privacy; 6. The bounderies of working and militancy (voluntarism). CONCLUSIONS: We concluded that those workers experienced deeply work\'s sufferings decurrent to the fact of belonging to the same community to which they perform their professional role. The suffering elapses mainly from the impossibility of flexibilization of the work organization with respect to the obligation of inhabitating in the same area. This requirement produces a phisical (spacial) and psychic contamination.

Full textThis doctoral research takes its source in a reading of manuscripts of Edmund Husserl. We examined the analyses of three philosophers: Carl Stumpf, Franz Brentano and Husserl. We are concentrated on the texts about affectivity, valuation, and classification of feelings. Our interest is particularly focused on “sensory feelings”. In our work, taking as a common thread the experience of pain, we try to put forward an original problem, with the help of which we become able to show the advantages of Husserl’s position regarding feelings in relation to Stumpf’s and Brentano’s positions. However, our objective in this study is not only to inquire about sensory feelings.

The work occupies a definite place in the lives of individuals, this rich sense of individual and social, is a means of producing life of each one to provide subsistence, existential senses create or contribute to the structuring of identity and subjectivity. The current status of adoption and use of Information and Communication Technologies by organizations and individuals, showed an increase of the incorporation of technological devices that have the potential to change the spatial and temporal characteristics of the work, increasing worker mobility. Considering the fact that the individual to move, while moving through space, remodeling or attach your personal identity, professional, cultural, social or political from the mobility, the ultimate goal of this research was to reflect on that how the positive and negative impacts generated by the intense geographic mobility demanded by the profession, teachers are perceived by workers of a post-graduation courses in Business Administration moving from one territory to another (s), in order to exercise their teaching activities. Was performed for both a literature review concerning the meaning of work, presenting the following are some reflections on the changes in labor relations as a result of mutations in the workplace, addressing, finally, the theme Mobility of the workforce. After this step, we sought to understand the perspective of teaching workers through personal interviews analyzed in the light of the method of content analysis, the paths taken by them and meanings attributed to these experiences, seeking to understand how teaching workers highlighted represent the look on himself and others, to show the significance (positive and negative) of spatial mobility, daily practices and strategies of socialization and interaction with, and at the destination. It can be concluded that, although there are some factors that can make the constant spatial displacement of these workers a negative element to them, since they are sources of high demand physical and mental, of stress, overload, emotional stress, fatigue, anxiety, discouragement, frustration and dissatisfaction with the work, leading them to the constant removal of the social context and may result in serious consequences for the health of the worker. These constant shifts geographical become, however, a positive element, since the increase to allow their teaching practices through the experiences enriched by contacts, by learning acquired and the skills acquired in multicultural relationships, becoming space for self-fulfillment, social inclusion and recognition, prestige, status and sense of usefulness.
O trabalho ocupa um inegável espaço na vida dos indivíduos, sendo este rico de sentido individual e social, é um meio de produção da vida de cada um ao prover subsistência, criar sentidos existenciais ou contribuir na estruturação da identidade e da subjetividade. O cenário atual de adoção e uso das Tecnologias de Informação e Comunicação pelas organizações e pessoas, demonstra um crescimento da incorporação de dispositivos tecnológicos que têm o potencial de alterar as características espaciais e temporais do trabalho, aumentando a mobilidade do trabalhador. Considerando-se o fato de que o indivíduo ao deslocar-se, ao mover-se pelo espaço, anexa ou remodela sua identidade pessoal, profissional, cultural, social ou política a partir da mobilidade, o objetivo final desta pesquisa foi refletir sobre de que maneira os impactos positivos e negativos gerados pela intensa mobilidade geográfica demandados pelo exercício da profissão, são percebidos por trabalhadores docentes de curso de pós-graduação lato sensu em Administração que se deslocam de um território para outro(s), com a finalidade de exercerem suas atividades docentes. Realizou-se para tanto uma revisão bibliográfica acerca de sentido do trabalho, apresentando, a seguir, algumas reflexões sobre as alterações ocorridas nas relações de trabalho em decorrência de mutações no mundo do trabalho, abordando, por fim, o tema Mobilidade da força de trabalho. Após esta etapa, buscou-se compreender, na ótica desses trabalhadores docentes, por meio de entrevistas pessoais analisadas à luz do método de análise de conteúdo, os caminhos percorridos e significados atribuídos por eles a estas vivências, procurando perceber como os trabalhadores docentes em destaque representam o olhar sobre si e sobre os outros, visando demonstrar o significado (positivo e negativo) da mobilidade espacial, as práticas cotidianas e estratégias de sociabilidade e interação com e no local de destino. Pode-se concluir que, apesar de haver alguns fatores que podem tornar os constantes deslocamentos geográficos destes trabalhadores um elemento negativo para eles, uma vez que são fontes de alta demanda física e mental, geradoras de estresse, sobrecarga, tensão emocional, cansaço, ansiedade, desânimo, frustração e descontentamento em relação ao trabalho, levando-os ao afastamento constante do contexto social, podendo resultar em consequências graves para a saúde deste trabalhador. Estes constantes deslocamentos geográficos tornam-se, contudo, um elemento positivo, uma vez que possibilitam o incremento às suas práticas docentes, por meio das vivências enriquecidas pelos contactos estabelecidos, pelas aprendizagens realizadas e pelas capacidades de relacionamento em meios multiculturais adquiridas, tornando-se espaço de autorrealização, inserção e reconhecimento social, prestígio, status e de senso de utilidade.

Full textCreativity as prevention of stress and suffering at work Analysis of "pathologies of communication": the case of care assistants among employees of Dassault into the experience of collective creativityHow to understand and act against discomfort – from stress to suffering - and the internal problems of modern business?We show how creativity can be a preventive and omnipotent communication approach, an alternative that can reduce a communication pathogen caused by management, in favor of a less instrumental than institutional and formal communication social.Our proof is structured in three parts, each bringing forth a paradox.The first is identified from a socio-historical examination of traditional work. Indeed, it enrolled as a place of suffering, but also of joy, present in the key concept of otium.The second comes from the pathogen world of business and appears from the examination of this space from the Habermassian paradigm of "pathologies of communication." The case of care assistants under stress but also suffering has been subjected to this new reading report. The analysis is complemented by a Winnicotian approach, allowing perceiving the unconscious mechanisms generated by the failed neomanagement.In the third part, in the middle of the movement about creative process, through a socio-psychoanalytic approach, we start with Winnicot theories about creativity, to transpose and beyond, in the internal life of the company.This theory is articulated and supplemented by an empirical study with Dassault employees who made the unusual experience of creating a 'transitional space heterotopic "paradoxically allowing to get rid of the work area and in the the same tine to be connected to it

Full textFrom at least Aristotle on, philosophers have attempted to explain the pasional life of human beings. The purpose of this paper is to show Hume´s theory of the passions. Hume analyzes passions as part of his science of man in Book 2 of A Treatise of Human Nature and subsequent Dissertation on the Passions. Hume distinguishes between “calm” and “violent” passions. He identifies the aesthetic and moral sentiments as examples of “calm” passions, while characterizing as “violent” sentiments such as “love and hatred, grief and joy, pride and humility”. Next, passions are divided by Hume into “direct”, which arise immediately from pain or pleasure and “indirect”, which proceed from the same principles, but by the conjunction of other qualities. The analysis of “indirect” passions is original. On the other hand, like epistemological and ethical theories, Hume´s account of passions is also a critical theory.

Full textIt has been noticed that tin and copper are still present in antifouling paints residing on the hulls of leisure boats, in spite of a ban of TBT-based paints since 1989 and strict regulations regarding copper-based paints since 1999.This bachelor thesis aims to give the reader a view of the current situation regarding the presence of tin and copper on the hull of leisure boats.During the spring of 2011, 336 leisure boats in three different waters were tested with a hand-held XRF analyzer (X-Ray Fluorescence). After scanning the surface of a hull the machine displays the paint’s proportions of basic elements. Testing was performed on leisure boats, winter-stored at yacht clubs connected to the lakes Mälaren, Storsjön and the coast of Härnösand. In this study 73 % of the tested boats show levels of tin and/or copper exceeding the (for this essay) set limits of 2500 parts per million, which means they could qualify for further testing, gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (GC-MS) for example, to determine the exact substances in the paints. The results also show that tin-based paints are either still in use, albeit in small scale, or that they are strong enough to detect through another layer(s) of paint. Copper-based paints seem to be used both along the east coast and in fresh-water lakes.More and more alternative antifouling systems that are capable of replacing paints while being more environmentally friendly are reaching the market. The most common alternative, to wash the boat with brushes or with a high-pressure water jet, is somewhat less environmentally friendly when the boat is painted with harmful substances and the facilities lack proper collection and sanitation of the wastewater.

Full textTo discuss about sex market, we focus on the prostitution practice as the primary way of enter and work in this universe. In this present study we look at the street prostitution practiced by lover boys with the intention of understand and reveal subjectivities present in this context, since, in the field of public health, this subject usually leads to an epidemiological bias, facing the risks of contracting sexually transmitted diseases. Based on these cited researches, public health programs often plan and develop actions that we understand as a social and health immobilization. In order to contribute about the subject we bring new information in this research performed with lover boys from Osasco São Paulo/SP, between 2010-2011. Methodologically we have ethnographic research contributions, especially dynamic observation, field notes, itinerant and deep interviews. Some categories of analysis arose during the study as sexuality, sexual hierarchies and masculinities. Contributions of authors: Gayle Rubin, Michael Foucault and Nestor Perlongher were fundamental to the theoretical and methodological approach. We believe that compared to the lover boys who worked in São Paulo between 70s and 80s came up new codes and new categories of performance that are not necessarily interpreted as prostitution. In this sense, they do not identify themselves inserted into a sex market and choose the paid-pleasure as a new category to justify their experiences that takes place between the clandestinity, homosexual practices and the masculinity assertion. Finally, there are their diversities, specificities and countless violence which are involved during their sexual and commercial practices

Full text"FUNNY GAMES. Spielräume des Sadomasochismus in Film und Medien" aims to reconstruct a history of pleasure and gratification through pain in the media since the end of the eighteenth century. In addition to classical sado-masochistic literature, the thesis focuses on movies in which modern forms of experiencing and desiring pain such as VIDEODROME (1983), I AM GUILTY (2005), THE HURT LOCKER (2008) and SHORTBUS (2006) manifest themselves. Central to the study are concepts of techno-imaginary wish machines and infernal devices, dynamised ego-apparatuses, that are experienced and expressed through the media of their time by writers, philosophers, psychoanalysts and film directors such as Donatien-Alphonse-François de Sade, Leopold and Wanda von Sacher-Masoch, Ernst Kapp, Sigmund Freud, Daniel Paul Schreber, Jacques Lacan, Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari, David Cronenberg, Michael Haneke and Kathryn Bigelow. The present study, an attempt to secure the medial evidence and try it out at the same time, is meant most of all as an invitation to participate: to experience positive desire and lust while obsessively progressing through virtual worlds of dreams and nightmares and the real world of the human body, to open oneself to new experiences in order to gain both new knowledge and new desires. Anti-Oedipus as a textual videogame. The analytical tools employed in this study include findings from (structural) psychoanalysis, media sciences, (movie) philosophy, gender theory, the theory of violence, fetish theory and game theory as applied in cultural studies. They have proven to be very helpful in illuminating at least some aspects of the mystery that is the sado-masochist desire for pain.

Full textBackground: A localized painful stimulation can produce diffused analgesia through the inhibitory conditioned pain modulation system (ICPM). Analgesia can also be induced by pleasant stimuli (e.g. music) or by the interruption of a painful stimuli (pleasant pain relief). Because pleasure has analgesic benefits, the effect of pleasant pain relief could be a confounding factor in ICPM. Furthermore, pain offset induces activations in reward regions, though results showing the deactivation of reward regions during pain onset have been inconsistent. Objectives: 1) investigate the possible relationship between pleasant pain relief and ICPM using psychophysical measures and 2) investigate cerebral activations/deactivations during pain onset. This will allow a better comprehension of the pain/reward interaction. Methodology: In study 1, ICPM was measured (N=27) by administering noxious heat (thermode) before and after the cold pressor test (CPT). After a 30 minutes break, the CPT was re-administered to measure pleasant pain relief (0-100) for 4 minutes. In study 2, a modified CPT (gel) was administrated (N=26) during an fMRI session to investigate cerebral activations/deactivations during pain onset. Results: In study 1, interruption of the CPT induced a mean pleasant pain relief of almost 40%. ICPM and pleasant pain relief did not correlate. In study 2, we found significant activations in the insula, the precuneus and the middle frontal gyrus and a significant deactivation in the medial orbital frontal gyrus during pain onset, when compared to the neutral stimulus. Discussion: Deactivation of reward regions illustrates the disruption in homeostasis caused by pain onset, which is later reinstated during pain offset (pleasant pain relief), therefore showing a compensatory effect. This allowed an enhanced comprehension of the opponent process theory.

In order to understand and comprehend the BDSM community, this report started by sadomasochistic practicers’ experiences, trying to lead readers walk into the world of BDSM step by step by means of real, sincere and simple spot coverage. This report can be divided into three parts. Chapter 1 to chapter 4 attempts to guide readers understand the sadomasochistic culture by different aspects, including sadomasochistic practicers’ stories, the history of sadomasochism and the distinctive gender phenomenon. Readers can find out that sadomasochism is not only the model of “pain leads to pleasure”, but the complicated relation between spirit and authority. Besides, it also contains stories of self-discovery and growth. Chapter 5 to chapter 7 focuses the interaction between the BDSM community and the society. In addition to portray how the masses and the academia treat sadomasochistic behaviors, this part includes their process of advancing social identification and the contradiction between BDSM community members. Besides, “Bondage” is familiar with publicity recently, since it becomes a kind of art. Chapter 8 is the conclusion. It describes and compares the situation of BDSM community between past and now. Furthermore, this chapter depicts what they are going to do in the future. This report tries to put the sadomasochistic subculture into record and contribute to the comprehension between various communities through 8 chapters.
