Resumo: A presente dissertação de mestrado historiografa e analisa o movimento social contrário à instalação da Unidade Geradora de Energia Termelétrica Carioba II no município de Americana, estado de São Paulo, movimento este ocorrido no período correspondente ao Licenciamento Ambiental do empreendimento, que foi de 2000 a 2002. Através da realização de 42 entrevistas com lideranças do movimento em estudo, de levantamento de fontes documentais e de artigos e demais publicações veiculadas na imprensa, busca-se aprofundar o olhar nas características principais do fenômeno social estudado, em especial nas três cidades em que se manifestou com maior força, a saber: Americana, Santa Bárbara d¿Oeste e Piracicaba. Utilizam-se, principalmente, os ensinamentos de Alberto Melucci e Manuel Castells para o entendimento da nossa sociedade pós-industrial, dos movimentos sociais e da participação popular, aplicando estes ensinamentos ao movimento social contrário à Carioba II. Associam-se os efeitos da modernidade aos indivíduos, modificando as suas rotinas e a percepção de tempo e espaço, acentuando a individualização e a necessidade de se manter as citadas rotinas, entre outras conseqüências, enquanto obstáculos a sua adesão ao movimento social, adesão esta também influenciada pelos seus conhecimentos, experiências, crenças, redes sociais de que participa, entre outros fatores. Enfatiza-se o caráter plural, poli-classista e fragmentário, decorrente da resistência das comunidades locais, baseadas em sua identidade coletiva e nas tendências econômicas globalizantes, características essas oriundas e somente possíveis em sociedades complexas, pós-industriais e em rede. Abordam-se também a apropriação, a produção do conhecimento, pelos atores sociais pertencentes ao movimento, e a sua distribuição, utilizando inclusive as modernas tecnologias para a comunicação direta entre as lideranças do movimento e desta para com as suas bases
Abstract: The present master¿s dissertação analyzes the social movement against the installation of the Termo-Electric PlantEnergy of Carioba II in the city of Americana, state of São Paulo. The movement occurred in period during the Environmental Licensing of the plant between 2000 and 2002. Through the 42 interviews with leaders of the movement , a survey of documentary sources and articles and many publications in the local press, the study seeks to understand the main characteristics of the movement studied as it emerges in the three cities to be affected by the plant and where one finds the strength of the movement: Americana, Santa Bárbara d'Oeste and Piracicaba. We rely on the works of Alberto Melucci and Manuel Castells for theoretical support on the study of the social movement and the popular participation it mobilized in the case of the opposition to the Carioba II plant. We associate the effects of modernization through the Plant on the individuals, modifying their routines and perception of time and space, accenting the individualization and the necessity of if keeping their routines as excellent elements for their joining the social movement, also influenced by their knowledge, experiences, beliefs, social networks where theyt participated, among others factors. The emphasizes the plural, polyclass aspect of the movement and its fragmentary character, which emerges during the resistance of the local communities, as expressed in the collective identity with respect to the globalizing economic trends exemplified by the Plant. It also exams the appropriation and production of information for recruiting and securing social actors to the movement and its distribution of this information using concomitantly the modern technologies based on computer communication and the direct communication between the leadership of the movement and its base supporter

This dissertation is focused on the experiences which were lived and shared by a group of residents of Jardim Zaíra, in Maua, a city in ABC Paulista, São Paulo between the years 1958 and 1970. Our gaze turns to the experiences related to the urbanization of that place, the relationship of the residents with the Catholic Church and with the Neighborhood Friends Society , the participation of PCdoB members and later on, in 1968, the engagement of those people in a political movement called Popular Action, which through the process titled "integration in production" formed the cell-base-22 and encouraged the militancy against dictatorial government outrages present in Brazil that time .Through Oral History, we tried to analyze testimonials from 11 people who were related to that movement. We also present an assessment of 6 photos that rescue the daily life of those residents as well as the analysis of texts that bring us the vision of their leaders and the analysis of documents produced by the organs of repression that deal about their arrests and trial. The aim is to contribute towards the understanding about the social movement before and after the arrival of Popular Action members to that neighborhood as well as the reasons that brought them there and the experiences derived from this encounter. Similarly, we present the analysis of the CB-22 dismantling. We understand the importance of this movement and its ability to influence others later which helped ABC Paulista region to be known nationally because of the struggles for democracy. In times of Truth Commission, the research aims to broaden discussions not only of social movements, but also about the abuses caused by the organs of repression
Esta dissertação tem como tema central as experiências vividas e compartilhadas por um grupo de moradores do Jardim Zaíra, município de Mauá, região do ABC Paulista, estado de São Paulo, entre os anos de 1958 e 1970. Nosso olhar se volta para as experiências relacionadas ao processo de urbanização daquele lugar, as relações dos moradores junto à Igreja Católica e à Sociedade Amigos de Bairro, a participação de membros do PCdoB e posteriormente, em 1968, o engajamento daquelas pessoas num movimento político intitulado Ação Popular, o qual por meio do processo intitulado integração na produção formou no bairro a Célula-base-22 e incentivou a militância contra as arbitrariedades do governo ditatorial presente no Brasil naquela época. Por meio da História Oral, procuramos analisar depoimentos de 11 pessoas que estiveram relacionadas àquele movimento. Apresentamos também a apreciação de 6 fotos que resgatam o cotidiano daqueles moradores, bem como, a análise de textos que trazem a visão de suas lideranças e a análise de documentos produzidos pelos órgãos de repressão que tratam sobre suas prisões e julgamento. Pretende-se assim contribuir para compreensão a cerca do movimento social antes e depois da chegada dos membros da Ação Popular àquele bairro, bem como os motivos que os levaram até lá e as experiências oriundas desse encontro. Do mesmo modo apresentamos a análise sobre o desmantelamento da CB-22. Compreendemos a importância desse movimento e sua capacidade de posteriormente influenciar outros, que tornaram a região do ABC Paulista conhecida nacionalmente devido às lutas em prol da democracia. Em tempos de Comissão da Verdade a pesquisa visa ampliar as discussões não só dos movimentos sociais, mas dos abusos causados pelos órgãos de repressão

Full textThis study aimed to study the effect that the "Reflect-Action" approach, spread out by the C?rculo Internacional Reflect-A??o (CIRAC), brought for the empowerment, creation and strengthening of the social capital in two rural communities from the agrarian reform, in the county of Tracunha?m, state of Pernambuco. Our theoretical reference was based on the contributions that the Freireana popular education brought for the construction of methodologies of intervention based on the empowerment of the groups, creation and strengthening of the social capital. Considering the rural world, its particularities and the deep changes observed in its daily routine, particularly in the context of the settlements from the agrarian reform, we tried to understand the strategies reproduced or created by the settlers to insert themselves in a more sustainable way in the relationship with the State, markets, and the civil society. The research was carried out through half-structured interviews, focal groups, and participant observation conducted during a two years interval. We concluded that groups that built a more interactive action with the technical-economic initiatives of entourage and those of participative educational character tended to build social stronger relations of solidarity, reciprocity, and confidence, which resulting in a significant expansion of the conditions for generating social capital. The expansion of such abilities and the development of the individual capacities promoted and increased the bargaining power, contraposition and claim of these groups aiming a more harmonious economic, social, cultural, and environmental development.
Este trabalho visa estudar os efeitos que a abordagem Reflect-Action , difundida pelo C?rculo Internacional Reflect-A??o (CIRAC), trouxeram para o empoderamento, cria??o e fortalecimento do capital social em duas comunidades rurais, fruto da reforma agr?ria, no munic?pio de Tracunha?m em Pernambuco. Nosso referencial te?rico se fundamentou nas contribui??es que a educa??o popular freireana trouxeram para a constru??o de metodologias de interven??o com base no empoderamento dos grupos, cria??o e fortalecimento do capital social. Considerando o mundo rural, suas particularidades e as profundas altera??es que se observam no seu cotidiano, particularmente no contexto dos assentamentos de reforma agr?ria, procurou-se compreender as estrat?gias reproduzidas ou criadas pelos assentados para se inserirem de maneira mais sustent?vel nas rela??es com o Estado, com os mercados e com a sociedade civil. A pesquisa foi realizada com base em entrevistas semi-estruturadas, grupos focais e observa??o participante, realizadas durante o intervalo de dois anos. Pudemos concluir que grupos que constroem uma a??o mais interativa entre as iniciativas de acompanhamento t?cnico-econ?mico e as de car?ter educacional participativo tenderam a construir rela??es sociais de solidariedade, reciprocidade e confian?a mais fortes, o que acarretou em expans?o das condi??es de gera??o de capital social de forma significativa. A expans?o destas habilidades e o desenvolvimento das capacidades dos sujeitos foram capazes de promover e aumentar o poder de barganha, contraposi??o e reivindica??o destes grupos, com vistas ao desenvolvimento econ?mico, social, cultural e ambiental local de forma mais harmoniosa.

This work aims to investigate the possibility of institutions witch have responsibility to defend social interests to exercise a mediating role between the political system and civil society in the cycle of formation or improvement of public policies. As an institution of this nature, the Prosecutor's Office will be highlighted in the research from a resolutive erspective of its attributions, in order to investigate whether it is possible to act as a promoter and coordinator of the public sphere in arenas constituted by the institution itself or by others that have, in their functions, the task of defending social interests. The assumption of this work is based on the overcoming of the consciousness paradigm by the language paradigm and it has the communicative action like the tool to reach satisfactory levels of effectiveness of popular participation. The theoretical reference of the work is the Jürgen Habermas’ perception about deliberative democracy, especially based on the theory of communicative action. The research will be part bibliographical, which will be added to a field research to evaluate cuts of some projects of the Prosecutor's Office of Maranhão. First of all, aspects of the constitution of the contemporary and intersubjective public sphere will be approached in which actors that make up a material political representation of society and its interest groups interact between themselves, giving importance to the role of local associativism, new social movements and their networks inside of the process of formation and improvement of public policies of social interests. The text will deal with the phenomenon of popular participation in the face of philosophical paradigms and emphasize the necessary attention with the modalities of speech acts that hatch in the public sphere, so that the results of communicative action are not misrepresented, in order to ensure that collective deliberations in the public spaces of discussion obey the criteria of a democratic proceduralism that intend itself adequated according the Habermas' theory. Establishing the bases for the affirmation of deliberative democracy based on communicative action, reasons will be exposed to believe that the Prosecutor's Office, as an institution dedicated to defending social interests and holding horizontal accountability power, can exercise an important role in mediation between interests of civil society and the administrative system, including the creation of a forum within its institutional functions where the bases of communicative action can be guaranteed and coordinated by its members. The text will also address a way of assessing the effectiveness of the influence and normativity of popular participation before the political system in the cycle of public policy formation. An ideal conformation of the relationship between society and the system will be suggested, so that to guarantee administrative responsiveness between what the former wishes and what the latter offers as social welfare. Some stabilization factors of this ideal conformation will be suggested, which can be activated by the Prosecutor’s Office service. In this sense, the work will make a content analysis in two project cutbacks supported by the Prosecutor’s Office of the State of Maranhão to demonstrate how these stabilizing factors should be promoted and what their limits are. This analysis will be carried out from the data collection of the Prosecutor's Office with the purpose of analyzing the processes in which it will be verified if the means used by the Institution have achieved the goals set forth in the constitution of the cutbacks of the respective projects. The bibliographical research on the theoretical reference of the work and the documentary analysis of data collected at the Prosecutor’s Office of the State of Maranhão will be used as techniques.
Este trabalho pretende investigar a possibilidade de instituições com incumbência de defesa de interesses sociais exercerem um papel mediador entre sistema político e sociedade civil no ciclo de formação ou aperfeiçoamento de políticas públicas. Enquanto instituição com essa natureza, o Ministério Público foi destacado na pesquisa a partir de uma perspectiva resolutiva de suas atribuições, para se investigar se é possível a sua atuação como fomentador e coordenador da esfera pública em arenas constituídas pela própria instituição ou por outras que ostentem em suas funções a incumbência de defesa de interesses sociais. O pressuposto deste trabalho assentou-se na superação do paradigma da consciência pelo paradigma da linguagem e teve na ação comunicativa a ferramenta para se alcançarem níveis satisfatórios de efetividade de participação popular. O referencial teórico do trabalho foi a percepção de Jürgen Habermas acerca da democracia deliberativa, notadamente à luz da teoria da ação comunicativa. A pesquisa foi bibliográfica em parte, que se somou a uma pesquisa de campo para avaliar recortes de dois projetos do Ministério Público do Maranhão. Inicialmente, foram abordados aspectos da constituição da esfera pública contemporânea e intersubjetiva em que interagem atores que compõem uma representatividade política material da sociedade e de seus grupos de interesse, dando-se relevância ao papel do associativismo local, dos novos movimentos sociais e de suas redes no processo de formação e aperfeiçoamento de políticas públicas de interesses sociais. A dissertação tratou do fenômeno da participação popular diante dos paradigmas filosóficos e ressaltou a necessária atenção com as modalidades dos atos de fala que eclodem na esfera pública, a fim de que os resultados da ação comunicativa não sejam deturpados, de forma a garantir que as deliberações coletivas nos espaços públicos de discussão obedeçam a critérios de um procedimentalismo democrático que se pretenda adequado à luz da teoria de Habermas. Estabelecidas as bases para a afirmação da democracia deliberativa à luz do agir comunicativo, foram expostas razões para se acreditar que o Ministério Público, como instituição vocacionada à defesa de interesses sociais e detentora de poder de accountability horizontal, pode exercer importante papel na mediação entre os interesses da sociedade civil e do sistema administrativo, inclusive admitindo-se a criação de um fórum no âmbito das suas funções institucionais em que as bases da ação comunicativa possam ser garantidas e coordenadas por seus membros. A dissertação abordou, ainda, uma forma de aquilatar a efetividade da influência e normatividade da participação popular diante do sistema político no ciclo de formação de políticas públicas. Foi apresentada uma conformação ideal da relação entre sociedade e sistema para que se garanta responsividade administrativa entre o que a primeira deseja e o que o segundo oferece a título de bem-estar social. Apresentaram-se também alguns fatores de estabilização dessa conformação ideal, que podem ser ativados pelo Ministério Público. Nesse sentido, o trabalho fez uma análise de conteúdo em recortes de dois projetos sustentados pelo Ministério Público do Estado do Maranhão para demonstrar como devem ser promovidos esses fatores estabilizadores e quais os seus limites. Essa análise foi realizada a partir do levantamento de dados do Ministério Público com o objetivo de fazer uma análise de processos em que se verificou se os meios utilizados pela instituição atenderam aos fins propalados na constituição dos recortes dos respectivos projetos. Foram utilizadas como técnicas, a pesquisa bibliográfica sobre o referencial teórico do trabalho e a análise documental de dados colhidos no Ministério Público do Estado do Maranhão.

This work presents a case study about volunteer works of social action related to the question of urban poverty at Brazilian Contemporary Society. The study was made both with theoric references and field research. The field research refers to a protestant group that assists people that live in streets in the west zone of Rio de Janeiro, in the Guaratiba neighborhood, doing a work called "Sop?o". The general Purpose of this work is to produce a reflection about the causes of religious volunteer assistencialist practices nowadays, in relation both to the insufficient public policies and to the historic context of the engagement of civil society. Therefore, the dissertation analyses the volunteer works of social action of protestant churches under two principal prospects, or two hypotheses. The first shows the volunteer work like assistentialist and philanthropic, that works like an answer to the insufficient public policies - in this case, we will appropriate of Welfare State conceptions. The second shows the volunteer work like an assistance provided by protestant religious associations that appear, in this case, like civil society associations, resultants of the movement of civil participation that grow up starting in the 90's with the new Constitution, and promoter of public policies.
A presente disserta??o apresenta um estudo sobre trabalhos volunt?rios de a??o social relacionados ? quest?o da pobreza urbana na sociedade contempor?nea brasileira. Trata-se de um estudo de caso, no qual a pesquisa foi feita tanto com base em referencial te?rico como em pesquisa de campo. A pesquisa emp?rica tem como refer?ncia um grupo protestante que assiste moradores de rua na Zona Oeste do Rio de Janeiro, mais especificamente no bairro de Guaratiba, realizando um trabalho denominado ?Sop?o?. O objetivo geral desse trabalho ? aprofundar a reflex?o sobre as motiva??es das pr?ticas assistenciais volunt?rias religiosas na contemporaneidade, relacionando-as tanto ao contexto de insufici?ncia das pol?ticas p?blicas do estado do Bem Estar Social, como ao contexto hist?rico do engajamento da sociedade civil para com a pobreza urbana no Brasil. Sendo assim, analisou-se os trabalhos volunt?rios de a??o social das igrejas protestantes sob duas principais perspectivas, que se desdobram em duas hip?teses a serem testadas. A primeira delas entende o trabalho volunt?rio como assistencialista e filantr?pico, que surge como resposta e alternativa ? insufici?ncia de pol?ticas p?blicas por parte do Estado ? nesse caso nos apropriamos das concep??es do Estado do Bem Estar Social para basear a hip?tese. A segunda entende o trabalho volunt?rio como uma assist?ncia fornecida por associa??es religiosas protestantes, que aparecem, nesse caso, como associa??es da sociedade civil, resultantes do desdobramento do movimento de participa??o civil que se aprofunda a partir da d?cada de 1990 com a nova Constitui??o, e promotoras de pol?ticas p?blicas.

Full textThe purpose of this dissertation is to propose a theoretical model for the subgenre of testimonials of social empowerment. With the concept of empowerment as groundwork, the model develops a textual approach framed in a psychosocial structure. I argue that testimonials may be described as examples of Jürgen Habermas’s communicative action. As speech acts aimed at reaching understanding, testimonials capitalize both on the binding and bonding aspects of illocutionary force in the hope to secure with their audience an ongoing dialogue over issues of social justice. The volumes, as unofficial public spheres, mobilize the normative and practical dynamics at work in social movements. These dynamics express as two narrative guiding threads: an aesthetic based on impact, and an ethics based on responsibility. The texts’ aesthetic develops a form of perlocutionary realism instantiating a sense of authenticity and sincerity embodied in the narrators’ voices. The resulting impact is coupled to moral concerns based on a polysemic understanding of social responsibility, on which narrators seek to build their narratives’ ethical potential. A series of case studies allowed to demonstrate that both narrative threads are realized as an appropriation of four paradigmatic forms of rhetorical ethos, each based on a specific realm of the social world: intimacy, justice, spirituality and activism.

Resumo: Esta pesquisa tem como tema o processo organizativo e de construção das demandas do movimento de moradores de favelas e como este movimento social foi conformando, ao longo do tempo, seu repertório de luta para afirmação da moradia digna, mediados por seu apoiador principal naquele momento, a Igreja Católica, sua relação com o governo e seu processo de aprendizagem na tentativa do atendimento de suas reivindicações. Nosso principal objetivo é descrever como se davam as interações entre moradores de favelas e poder público, na cidade de São Paulo, entre 1975 e 1982, em um momento no qual as políticas públicas para as favelas aos poucos iam se deslocando da ênfase na remoção, ainda hegemônicas, para a ideia da assistência coletiva às famílias. Para a nossa análise retomaremos, de forma mais rápida e como contraponto, a luta dos moradores dos loteamentos clandestinos, como forma de avaliarmos os diferentes padrões de resposta estatal associados à luta pela terra urbana. A pesquisa foi desenvolvida utilizando bibliografia secundária e análise de documentos do período, alguns deles produzidos pelo próprio movimento e também pela pesquisa de jornais da época
Abstract: This research has as its theme the organizational process and construction of the demands of the movement of the favelas's residents and how this social movement has been conforming, over time, his repertoire of struggle for affirmation of the decent housing, mediated by its main supporter at that time, the Catholic Church, its relationship with the Government and their learning process in the attempt to support their claims. Our main goal is to describe how were the interactions between the residents of the favelas and public authorities, in the city of São Paulo, between 1975 and 1982, in a moment in which public policies for the slums would gradually moving from an emphasis on removing, still hegemonic, to the idea of collective assistance to families. For our analysis, we will quickly recapture, as a counterpoint, the struggle of the residents of illegal squatter settlements as a way of assessing the different patterns of State response associated with the struggle for urban land. The survey was developed using secondary bibliography and analysis of documents of the period, some of them produced by the movement itself and also by search of newspapers of that time

Full textAround 2008, a literary genre called "zhichang xiaoshuo" arouses enthusiasm in China: bestsellers with their adaptations generate several hundred works in the same vein. This phenomenon that we call "white-collar literature" is literary, socio-economic and cultural at once. New in the history of literature, this literature is atypical due to the professional identity of its authors, its hybrid forms, and also its production methods. Four works, including most publicized and most original, constitute our core corpus, and offer a sample of the richness of the phenomenon. Our work takes a two-pronged approach, both socio-historical and literary. For works of the corpus, we first study the plot, the characters, the textual structure and narrative techniques. We examine in parallel two fictions by renowned writers who portrayed the working world of the early and late 1980s, respectively, and two fictions in the “guanchang” and the “shangchang” genres at the turn of the century or contemporary with “zhichang xiaoshuo”. The economic, political and cultural context in which the phenomenon appeared is widely studied. We also analyze the adaptations as variants of the literary work, and try to explain their differences. Finally, we explore the functions of this popular literature in twenty-first century Chinese society which is, on the one hand, proud of its prosperity and enjoying the benefits of new technologies; and on the other hand, marked by the trauma of its past and by a general loss of bearings

Full textThis thesis aims to a better understanding of the ways in which Pierre Perrault’s work interacted with Québécois society during the Quiet Revolution and with the ideas on which it was based.Specifically, it will focus on the way in which the filmmaker’s artistic conception might have been influenced by Québécois popular culture and how it has, in turn, reinvested it. I will analyse the relationships between the filmmaker’s work and three distinct contexts: the representations of the Québécois nation and their historicity in the 20th century; the ambivalent relationship between cinema and Québécois society since the birth of this mass media; and the reminiscences of oral tradition in popular culture and cinema.In order to properly understand Perrault’s creative practice an its inscription in the Québécois society, I propose to consider his work from a global perspective, which includes the films and the essays, as well as the film production and distribution, with the idea that all these elements formed in fact a coherent and indivisible whole in the ways in which Perrault thought of his filmmaking. I thus suggest the idea that the “cinéma de la parole” must be considered from a fresh perspective: its core or its meaning are not specifically found in the films themselves, nor in their reception, but in a long “process” of sharing that begins before the film’s recording and that is meant to continue beyond the screening of the finished work: the true aim of Perrault’s cinema is the very process of exchange, of interrelation and co-definition. The concept of “process”, which will be developed throughout this entire study, constitutes a frame for its “contextual” analysis. It also encompasses the way in which the filmmaker conceived his work as cinematographer; my analysis can thus be situated within a hermeneutic tradition.Finally, describing and analysing Perrault’s cinema in terms of process also allows us to consider a different conception of film based on Perrault’s example: a complex historical and socio-cultural phenomenon intimately tied to the evolutions of a given society, and whose meanings depend on the contexts in which it grows and with which it maintains a relationship based on exchange

Nesta dissertação analiso os impactos causados à vida cotidiana de moradores de duas localidades pobres em Recife-PE, denominadas “Xuxa” e “Deus nos Acuda”, cujos moradores foram expulsos pelo poder público da área que ocupavam nas margens dos mangues do bairro de Boa Viagem, quando da construção da Via Mangue. Esse corredor viário foi proposto para solucionar, segundo seus idealizadores, problemas relacionados com mobilidade urbana, preservação ambiental e habitação popular da zona sul do Recife. Dentro de uma abordagem cultural, esta pesquisa de campo do tipo qualitativa tem como objetivo geral problematizar as estratégias utilizadas pelos gestores públicos para justificar e viabilizar o projeto da Via Mangue, mais especificamente no que diz respeito à expulsão dos moradores das referidas localidades, refletindo as táticas dos sujeitos na recepção do mesmo. Como objetivos específicos, a pesquisa visa Analisar: de que forma eram produzidos e praticados os espaços, assim como as sociabilidades no bairro de Boa Viagem, dando atenção especial à experiência dos moradores das localidades “Xuxa” e “Deus nos Acuda”; problematizar os discursos dos gestores públicos enquanto parte das estratégias no contexto das relações de forças sociais, nos quais a inclusão social e a dignidade dos moradores das localidades aparecem como argumentação para implantação do projeto da Via Mangue; analisar como a população das localidades “Xuxa” e “Deus nos Acuda” se apropriou do projeto da prefeitura, com suas táticas e astúcias, na luta pela recriação de espaços e de identidades. Estes objetivos foram discutidos, respectivamente, numa estrutura de três capítulos consecutivos e articulados entre si. Para operacionalizar as análises, utilizei como principais conceitos os de “espaço”, “lugar”, “tática”, “estratégia” e “apropriação” de Michel de Certeau; de “identidade” na obra de Stuart Hall e Tomaz Tadeu da Silva. No que diz respeito à natureza das fontes, este trabalho pode ser inserido no campo da história oral, uma vez que tem como fontes os relatos de memória dos ex-moradores das localidades “Xuxa” e “Deus nos Acuda”. Foram utilizadas também como fontes adicionais publicações jornalísticas impressas e eletrônicas. Foram feitas entrevistas, observações simples de campo, análises fotográficas, além de pesquisas bibliográficas. A metodologia de procedimento utilizada foi a Análise de Discurso. Os dados coletados e suas análises levam à conclusão de que a expulsão dos moradores das já referidas localidades constituiu um processo marcado por contradições que não eliminou, mas apenas deslocou fronteiras de segregação espacial, além de provocar o desenraizamento cultural e a precarização das condições socioambientais daqueles moradores. A população expulsa, no entanto, não teve uma atitude passiva diante das estratégias do poder público, tendo desenvolvido, ao invés disso, uma atitude produtiva e determinante na recriação do seu cotidiano, o que “rachou ao meio” as estratégias do poder público, o qual terminou por colher resultados diferentes dos planejados.
In this dissertation I analyze the impacts imposed on the daily life of residents in two poor neighborhoods in Recife -PE, called "Xuxa" and "Deus os Acuda". These inhabitants were expelled by the government from the area which they occupied in the edges of the Boa Viagem mangroves, because of the construction of the Via Mangue. This road was proposed to solve, according to its creators, problems related to urban mobility , environmental preservation and public housing in the southern area of Recife. In a cultural approach, this qualitative research aims to discuss the strategies used by public managers to justify and facilitate the Via Mangue project, specifically regarding to the expulsion of the inhabitants of these areas, reflecting the tactics of the subjects in the reception of this. The specific objectives are: to analyze how were produced and practiced spaces, as well as sociability in Boa Viagem district, giving special attention to the experience of the residents of the localities "Xuxa" and "Deus nos Acuda"; problematize the discourses of public managers as part of the strategies in the context of relations of social forces, in which the social inclusion and the dignity of the residents of the localities appear as arguments for the implementation of the Via Mangue project; to analyze how the population of "Xuxa" and "Deus nos Acuda" appropriated the city hall project, its tactics and gimmicks in the struggle for recreating spaces and identities. These objectives were discussed in a structure of three consecutive and connected chapters, respectively. To perform the analysis, I used the concept of "space", "place" , "tactic" , "strategy" and "ownership" according to Michel de Certeau , the concept of "identity" according to Stuart Hall and Tomaz Tadeu da Silva. This work can be classified as oral history because its sources are reports of former residents’ memories from "Xuxa" and "Deus nos Acuda". Furthermore, print and electronic journalistic publications were used as sources. Interviews, field observations, photographic analyses and literature searches were performed. The method used was Discourse Analysis. I concluded that the expulsion of the residents from the localities was a process marked by contradictions which did not eliminate, but shifted boundaries of spatial segregation and caused cultural rootlessness and impaired the environmental conditions of those residents. The expelled population, however, did not have a passive attitude towards the strategies of the government, instead, they developed a productive and peremptory attitude in the recreation of their daily life, braking the strategies of the government which resulted differently than originally planned.

Abstract This research aims at probing into the impacts of Taiwanese popluar songs application to social curricula on students’ learning desire and learning outcomes. The Action Research Method was herein employed to study aggregate 5 students in the classroom the researcher teaches. The research divided modern Taiwan history into three phases, i.e. Period of Japanese Occupation, Period of Material Law, as well as Period of Material Law Lifting. The teaching themed at economic activities, mode of transport, and lifestyle was also conducted to come up with following specific research conclusions: 1. The reflection on Taiwan’s composed pop songs’ application to social curricula: (1) teachers’ instructions need to be further figured out and specified; (2) the xtracurricular activities should give full play to its multi-learning functions as far as possible; (3) the selected songs should get closest to students’ daily life. 2. According to the students’ feedback list results: students are fond of teaching with Taiwan’s composed pop songs in social curricula; students agree to improve their voluntariness in exploring the hometown by teachers’ application of Taiwan’s composed pop songs into social curricula; they agree that the introduction of Taiwan’s composed pop songs to the social curricula is interesting and also agree to compose their own pop song and take initiative to participate in the teaching ctivities with Taiwan’s composed pop songs applied into social curricula. As shown in collaborative observation table, two collaborative teachers agree that the teaching contents are interesting for students and students can express their own opinions during teaching in timely manner as well as take active part in the teaching activities. From the foregoing two survey results, Taiwan’s composed pop songs’ application into social curricula will indeed improve students’ learning morale. 3. As indicated in the students’ feedback list, students agree that Taiwan’s composed pop songs’ introduction to the social curricula are helpful for them to learn more about their hometown; according to the collaborative observation table, both two collaborative teachers agree that students can clearly understand the teaching contents, suggesting that Taiwan’s composed pop songs’ application into social curricula will indeed promote students’ learning outcomes. On the basis of the conclusion, following suggestions are put forward by the researcher to the teacher, namely, applying Taiwan’s composed pop songs into different themes or subjects, introducing multimedia website resources to enhance learning effectiveness as well as the selected songs’ compliance with students’ daily life; for component governmental authorities, it’s recommended that they should establish a database for Taiwan’s composed pop songs; it’s also suggested that the future researches can change their study object, methods as a reference for Taiwan’s composed pop songs’ application into social curricula. Key words: Taiwan’s composed pop songs, Taiwan’s history period, social curricula

Full textIt has been over a century since African people were forcibly removed by official decree in 1901, from the Cape Town dockland barracks and District Six, to Uitvlugt, a farm where a location of corrugated iron &lsquo
huts&rsquo
had just been constructed. This occurrence followed an outbreak of a bubonic plague in Cape Town in 1901, which became predominant among the Africans who worked at the docks, and who were in direct and constant contact with the main carriers of the disease, i.e., the rats coming out of ships from Europe. The outbreak resulted in African being stigmatised as diseased, and being banished to the outskirts of the city. Since then, knowledge about this historical occurrence has been continuously produced, presented and communicated in many ways. It has featured in many representations through memory, heritage and history.In 1902, the new residents of Uitvlugt gave the location the name kwa-Ndabeni. Ndabeni was a nickname that the residents had given to Walter Stanford who had chaired the commission that recommended for the establishment of the location in 1901. The prefix kwa- was added to the name so that it meant in Xhosa language, the place of Ndabeni. In that way, the residents, who at that time did not consider the location as a potential place of their permanent abode, named it in a way that disassociated them from the place.

Full textThis master thesis focuses on the construction of a social citizen from the analysis of the intervention of two local agencies located in "Trou du Nord" (Haiti). It is exploring ways in which members will represent their ownership and represent their citizenship status. We put emphasis on the social mechanisms and associations involved in building what we call "citizen social space". We have conducted a qualitative research from the works of Barber (1997) on practical policy participation and those of Lamoureux (1991) on collective social action. We assume, as central hypothesis, that associative practices are the main vector for construction of a citizen social space in "Trou du Nord". This central hypothesis is supported by two secondary one interested on the operating conditions for the exercise of citizenship and the affirmation of individual members belonging to the common area. We have made fourteen semi-structured interviews conducted with members of the "Assemblée Populaire Veye Yo Trou du Nord (APVT)" and the "Rassemblement des militants solidaires de Trou du Nord (RAMSO)". The results indicate that members of both organizations show great willingness to contribute to the development of their locality and "wellbeing" of the population. This freedom of action is based on sharing their individual experiences and their extensive knowledge of the local realities faced daily citizens. Both groups are designed as spaces of sociability, as public and dynamics places reflecting the various types of local interaction. According to the analysis, members of both groups get involved in resolving collective problems at the local level without neglecting their own interests. They are part of the game of electoral bargaining and teach their members to behave as a community of interests and action, itself contained in all interactions, processes and dynamic resolution of problems local level. Those findings validate some of our hypothetical assumptions and reveal at the same time their limits. On the one hand, the willingness to help with the wellbeing on the population, with the need for the people to speak out and to express their collective and individual problems, with the desire to have control over the elected leaders actions, are all issues that allowed the groups to pursue broader collective interest and to define themselves as a citizen social space. On the other hand, their position in the political arena especially at election time makes them appear as groups of supporters, that is to say they are not always in the construction of the general interest. We conclude this dual aspect is necessary both for the construction of a citizen social space and that of democratic citizen at the local level. In addition, those two groups help citizen to assert their sense of belonging to a local community. They help them also to develop capacities to criticize actions taking by both local and national leaders. They help them also to acquire the skills to participate – even though in the interstices – at the sociopolitical games as part of the process of building citizenship and a democratic system under construction.

Full textThe years of 2011-13 are recognized in Portugal by the high levels of social and political protest against austerity policies decided by the Government and the Troika (IMF, UE and ECB). New groups and new forms of protest emerged, giving rise to the biggest street demonstrations of last decades. Meanwhile, international politics was being disturbed by the Arabian Spring, 15M (Spain) and Occupy Wall Street mobilizations, wherein social media played an important role in the construction and dissemination of the protest. From this point of view, the cycle of protest arising in Portugal fit in to the international tendencies of rupture with old forms of collective action and activism of political actors historically supportive of these kinds of protest movements. However, the Portuguese case also exhibits evidence on continuities, mostly with regard to links and relationships to networks of activists from previous protest waves, as well as to support provided by left wing political parties and trade unions. These continuities and discontinuities are discussed and analyzed throughout this thesis.

Full textA tese gira em torno das questões mais centrais sobre as ações coletivas promovidas pelas associações sindicais em defesa de interesses transindividuais. Estes podem ser entendidos como interesses partilhados por grupos de pessoas, eventualmente correspondente às aspirações de toda uma categoria profissional de trabalhadores ou de segmentos alargados da sociedade. Procura-se desenvolver aqui uma teoria coerente e de eminente viés prático que, alicerçada sobre conceitos bem delimitados dos interesses difusos, coletivos stricto sensu e individuais homogêneos, ultrapasse o atual “estado da arte” de conceitos ambíguos e permita fazer da ação coletiva um instrumento processual útil e acessível. O sindicato apresenta-se, neste contexto, como um apto “representante” desses interesses, um verdadeiro “autor ideológico”, e, que por isso mesmo, está habilitado a realizar a propositura da respectiva ação judicial. Mais especificamente, apresenta-se à comunidade científica uma teoria que demonstra não apenas a legitimidade dos sindicatos para essas ações, mas, como aqui se comprova pela história e pelo direito comparado, a sua especial aptidão para proteger judicialmente a efetividade do direito laboral e a observância de direitos sociais, inclusive aqueles pouco densificados na Constituição. O uso de direitos estrangeiros e a própria comparação de direitos servem para tornar mais robusta a compreensão de que a participação judicial dos sindicatos deveria superar necessariamente as tímidas concepções tradicionais de defesa de direitos no judiciário. Essa metodologia de investigação não apenas revela a forma como os sindicatos participam ativamente da defesa de direitos laborais e sociais em outras ordens jurídicas, mas principalmente autoriza e reforça a emergência de uma nova percepção dos processos judiciais sindicais em Portugal. Esta nova visão clama, principalmente, por uma reflexão maior e mais detida sobre o instituto da “substituição processual” prevista no n.º 2 do art. 5.º do Código de Processo do Trabalho, como integrando um sistema maior de proteção de interesses, e pelo reconhecimento das enormes potencialidades do direito de ação popular previsto no n.º 3 do art. 52.º da Constituição Portuguesa.
