Resumo: Lev Vigotski, pensador bielo-russo, produziu seus textos na primeira metade do séc. XX. Interessado nas mais variadas disciplinas, dentre elas a psicologia, buscou superar a dicotomia individual/social, afirmando a constituição social do sujeito. Em outras palavras, as relações sociais nas quais o sujeito está inserido são constitutivas de seu desenvolvimento. Nós nos desenvolvemos a partir de nossa interação com o meio social no qual vivemos e crescemos e, significamos o mundo ao nosso redor, constituídos pela maneira como o grupo ao qual pertencemos o faz. Entretanto, nossas maneiras de significar, de pensar ou de agir constituem-se de forma dialética nos grupos dos quais fazemos parte. Clifford Geertz, antropólogo estadunidense, produziu grande parte de suas reflexões acerca da antropologia na segunda metade do séc. XX. Preocupado com os rumos para onde se direcionava esta disciplina, realizou uma meta-antropologia, questionando o papel do antropólogo enquanto autor das etnografias e também o papel do sujeito-informante. Juntamente com seus questionamentos epistemológicos, Geertz definiu um novo conceito de cultura, mais compatível com a antropologia que realiza após o giro antropológico. Suas preocupações meta-antropológicas impactam fortemente suas etnografias, motivo pelo qual não é possível compreender umas sem as outras. Finalmente, defende que para apreendermos qualquer relação social ou significado atribuído por determinado grupo, devemos realizar um estudo etnográfico que busque como resultado a descrição densa, pois somente a partir dela somos capazes de compreender as teias de significados nas quais os sujeitos estão imersos. Apesar do momento histórico distinto, das diferentes disciplinas e do objeto diverso, ambos os autores buscam compreender a importância e o papel da cultura na constituição do sujeito e na sua forma de tecer e ler as teias de significados nas quais está imerso
Abstract: Lev Vigotski, the Soviet Belarusian thinker, penned his texts in the first half of the 20th century. Interested in various disciplines, among which psychology, he sought to overcome the individual/social dichotomy, affirming the social constitution of the subject. In other words, social relationships in which subjects are inserted are constitutive of their development. We develop based on our interaction with the social environment in which we live and grow, and we give meaning to the world around us, according to the way the group we belong to does. However, our ways of signifying, thinking or acting are constituted in a dialectic way in the groups of which we are part. Clifford Geertz, in turn, an American anthropologist, produced much of his reflections on anthropology in the second half of the 20th century. Concerned with the directions in which the discipline was headed, he delved into meta-anthropology, questioning the role of the anthropologist as author of ethnographies and also as subject-informant. Along with its epistemological questions, Geertz defined a new concept of culture, which is more compatible with the kind of anthropology he engages in after the anthropological turn. His meta-anthropological concerns heavily impact his ethnographies, reason why one cannot understand one without recourse to the others. Finally, he argues that to apprehend any social relationship or meaning assigned by a particular group, we must conduct ethnographic studies whose goal is to attain thick description, because only a description of such kind is able to provide an understanding of the web of meanings in which the subjects are immersed. Despite the distinct historical moment, the different disciplines and objects of study, both authors seek to understand the importance and the role of culture in the constitution of the subject and his way of weaving and reading the web of meanings in which it is immersed

Testo completoOrganizational culture is in need of new paradigms. As an ontological category it is flawed because the lack of academic consensus on what culture is tends to render it inadequate as an explanatory framework. As a field of praxis managers and practitioners tend to oversimplify culture, reducing it to one or two variables such as idealized norms or values, or as personality-writ-large. This leads to failed organizational culture change efforts, usually at great cost and effort as organizations fail to adapt beyond surface effects. Against these notions a new paradigm for organizational culture is proposed. Cognitive science, specifically embodied and situated cognition, analogically based reasoning, and cultural schemas provide a robust way to conceptualize and investigate culture. It is proposed culture is loosely but distinctively ecologically determined, underwritten by human cognition grounded in the functional, technological, and social forces inherent in work, and the production of meaning related to work. This paper advances a theory of culture as shared cognitive models by which groups derive meaning and organize sensemaking. Under the right conditions such models may make up the organization’s dominant culture. This dissertation provides theory and research describing a so-called functionally embodied organizational culture framework. It investigates the shared schemas and cultural models of the executive team of a global, diversified Fortune 1000 manufacturer. Preliminary support for functional grounding is seen: Schemas rooted in the strategic task environment of manufacturing make up the cultural models for people leadership and business management, lending preliminary support to functionally grounded culture. Implications for current theory and practice are discussed, along with avenues for future research. One implication is that popular approaches to culture and change utilizing top-down, espoused, and idealized norms and values may not be sufficient to dislodge prevailing shared cognitions rooted in dominant professional orientations or strategic context.

Testo completoEsta tese tem como objetivo propor novos caminhos para a discussão sobre a cultura organizacional. Tradicionalmente, os debates sobre o tema no âmbito da teoria das organizações assimilam referenciais teóricos e metodológicos oriundos da antropologia; em especial, as premissas e conceitos que compõem os paradigmas funcionalista e interpretativo. Nesta interdisciplinaridade, as discussões sobre a mudança cultural nas organizações não assimilaram referenciais de análise que dessem conta das maneiras como os grupos sociais de fato mudam e evoluem. Na realidade, a matriz disciplinar da antropologia caracteriza-se pela oposição entre diacronia e sincronia – que assume a forma dos pares opostos sistema e evento, história e estrutura, estabilidade e mudança, entre outros. Com base nesta polarização, os antropólogos construíram tradições de estudos que destacam a continuidade em detrimento da mudança, ou ainda, a estrutura em detrimento da história. Mais recentemente, entretanto, as idéias de Sahlins, ou a antropologia histórico-estrutural, sugerem não haver razão para a polarização excludente entre história e estrutura, considerando-se a complexidade e especificidade dos fenômenos culturais. Ao sugerir a inseparabilidade entre continuidade e mudança, Sahlins propõe redefinições importantes nos conceitos clássicos de cultura, incorporando às discussões antropológicas uma série de questões desprestigiadas pelos paradigmas clássicos; em especial, a mudança cultural. Neste sentido, propõe-se que a incorporação das propostas da antropologia histórico-estrutural às discussões sobre a cultura organizacional tem o potencial de fazer avançar os debates acerca das maneiras como as organizações evoluem ao permitir a análise das continuidades e descontinuidades que caracterizam estes sistemas culturais. Ao problematizar os conceitos tradicionais de cultura organizacional, este movimento contribuiria sobremaneira à temática da mudança cultural nas organizações, por exemplo, ao viabilizar o desenvolvimento de uma perspectiva cultural à aprendizagem organizacional. A contribuição da antropologia histórico-estrutural é ilustrada por meio de um estudo de caso etnográfico realizado no núcleo de Albardão do CEDEJOR – Centro de Desenvolvimento do Jovem rural –, que reúne 30 jovens da comunidade do sétimo distrito rural do município de Rio Pardo, no Rio Grande do Sul. O CEDEJOR é uma ONG que atua na região Sul do Brasil, tendo como objetivos promover o empreendedorismo e o desenvolvimento do jovem rural através de processos educativos e participativos, buscando a sustentabilidade e a melhoria da qualidade de vida das comunidades rurais, e tendo o jovem como protagonista. Com base nas idéias de Sahlins, a análise do caso sugere ser a cultura sistema e evento, ambigüidade e consenso, e estrutura e história, simultaneamente.
This thesis proposes new directions within the discussions of organizational culture. Traditionally, the debates on the theme in the field of organization theory incorporate anthropological frameworks, in special, the premises and ideas which compose the functionalist and interpretative paradigms. Within this interdisciplinary appropriation, the discussions on cultural change in organizations did not assimilate frameworks which allowed the analysis of the ways social groups actually change and evolve. In fact, the disciplinary matrix of anthropology is characterized by the opposition of diachrony and synchrony - which assumes the format of opposing pairs such as system and event, history and structure, stability and change. Based on this opposition, anthropologists built theoretical traditions which highlight continuity in detriment of change, or structure in detriment of history. More recently, however, the ideas of Sahlins, or the structural, historical anthropology, suggest the inadequacy of the history-structure polarization as we recognize the complexity and specificity of the cultural phenomenon. Based on a theoretical proposal that suggests the inseparability of continuity and change, Sahlins proposes important redefinitions in the classical concepts of culture. These redefinitions would allow the incorporation of a serious of issues historically neglected by the classical anthropological paradigms; in special, cultural change. This thesis suggests that the assimilation of Sahlinsí proposals to the discussions of organizational culture has the potential of advancing the debates on the ways organizations evolve as it allows the analysis of the continuities and discontinuities which characterize these cultural systems. As it questions the traditional concepts of organizational culture, this movement would contribute to the refinement of the cultural debates within organization theory, e.g., allowing the development of a cultural perspective to organizational learning. The potential contribution of Sahlinsí proposals is illustrated by an ethnographic case study held in CEDEJOR Albard„o, an NGO which aggregates 30 teenagers from the seventh rural district of Rio Pardo, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. CEDEJOR´s goals include promoting entrepreneurship, the personal development of the rural youth and the sustainable development of their communities through participative educational processes. Based on the ideas of Sahlins, the analysis of the case study suggests that culture is system and event, ambiguity and consensus, and structure and history simultaneously.

Testo completoDe l'actuellement en formation est une exploration ethnographique d'un diagnostic médical d'origine récente, soit le 'traumatisme craniocérébral' ou TCC. Le TCC détient aujourd'hui une place prépondérante dans le travail des chercheurs, médecins, hôpitaux spécialisés, et départements de santé publique à travers l'Amérique du Nord et l'Europe. Le profil épidémiologique du TCC peut être qualifié d'effrayant puisque sa prévalence au sein de la population est incroyablement élevée. Le TCC constitue simultanément l'une des plus fréquentes causes de mortalité chez l'adulte et la principale cause de mortalité et source d'handicap chez les jeunes. Par ailleurs, le TCC est devenue la 'blessure caractéristique' des soldats américains engagés dans les conflits armés en Irak et en Afghanistan. Cependant, la manière de penser et connaître les blessures à la tête et au cerveau a radicalement changé dans les trente dernières années. Cela a propulsé le TCC à l'avant-scène des débats publics et politiques. Depuis dix ans, hôpitaux, neurologues, le Centre pour le Contrôle et la Prévention des Maladies, ainsi que l'OMS, ont tous concentrés leurs efforts sur le TCC, cette « blessure invisible », considérée comme une source de préoccupation à la fois pour la santé publique et les sciences médicales. Dans le but de comprendre la visibilité spectaculaire d'une blessure 'invisible', la première partie de ce mémoire documente pourquoi and comment cette problématique a généré cet important intérêt. Dans une deuxième partie, nous présentons les changements conceptuels et pratiques advenant aujourd'hui dans le travail clinique et expérimental concernant le TCC et le TCC léger. À titre d'exemple, il n'y a toujours pas de consensus par rapport à la physiopathologie et aux symptômes entourant le TCC léger. Cet état d'indétermination a généré de nouvelles avenues conceptuelles pour la recherche sur le TCC, particulièrement dans les domaines de l'imagerie neurologique et ses liens avec la neuropathologie, la pratique clinique, les évaluations post-traumatiques, et la rééducation. Des concepts médicaux fondamentaux, tels que le 'normal et le pathologique', prennent des formes conceptuelles uniques au sein de ces espaces d'indétermination. Dans cette deuxième partie, une série de vignettes ethnographiques tracent les liens et suit les configurations qui se dessinent alors que certaines technologies et pratiques convergent, donnant forme à cette catégorie de diagnostic, elle-même dynamique et émergente. En présentant parallèlement l'histoire de l'émergence de la TCC ainsi que les négociations expérimentales et cliniques qui l'entourent actuellement, nous visons à offrir un récit des 'espaces de l'incomplet', comme une exploration de la complexité, hétérogénéité et créativité au cœur de la médicine du cerveau contemporaine.

Testo completoThrough the study of Asuriní of Xingus ceramic and of Kayapó-Xikrins basket, I develop a reflection on the different meanings of the technologies. In other words, I try to evidence that the productive processes of the material culture are not, exclusively, an indicator of the adaptability or of the mans efficiency in the material culture are not, exclusively, an indicator of the adaptability or of the mans efficiency in the resolution of problems originating from his relationship with the material world, but that at the same time, they are a social construction. Besides, starting from the collected data, I try to contribute for the discussions on the formation process of the archaecological record and, more precisely, on the causes and consequences of the artifact variability in its forma, quantitative, space and relational dimensions. Above all, this work is an exemple of the possibilities that the ethnoarchaeological approach can offer for the reflection on the archaeological records, as well as, for the studies of material culture of different populations.

Testo completoThis thesis explores the intersection of nationalism, popular music, and sport as they collided with German identity politics and discourses of twentieth-century history. I contextualize public performances of German national identity during the 2006 World Cup within the broader historical context of national identity construction through music and sport in the last two hundred. I contextualize Germans' public performance of national pride and hospitality during the World Cup as the latest in a long line of cultural performances of German identity that have shaped and been shaped by historical circumstances and socially conditioned discourses of national identity. Taking a broad historical and conceptual perspective on cultural performance, I argue that cultural performances of German national identity—communicated in music, sport, and visual symbolism in the public landscape (i.e., through the use of posters, ads, popular press, etc)—have been tailored to and contingent on the social and discursive exigencies of particular historical and political junctures of the past two hundred years. Likewise, cultural performances during the 2006 World Cup must be seen as particular to twenty-first-century German society. Analyzing the Germans' public performance of national identity as well as popular songs and their audio-visual texts (i.e., music videos), I argue that some supposedly nationalist performances of German identity gained traction and popular support during the World Cup because of the strong role played by popular music and sport in framing the terms of their performance and interpretation.

Testo completoA presente tese, composta por quatro artigos científicos, compreende um estudo de caso etnográfico realizado na Faculdade de Odontologia da Universidade Federal do Rio deJaneiro com o objetivo de identificar, no contexto definido e localizado de uma escola de Odontologia, características do habitus profissional expressadas em seu currículo e descrever práticas escolares adotadas para comunicação e preservação destas. Seu construto teórico sintetiza-se em três ideias-chave: (1ª) o entendimento de que aeducação escolar cumpre função de socialização das novas gerações por meio da seleção e transmissão institucionalizada de determinada parcela da cultura de uma sociedade; (2ª) a concepção de currículo como expressão de lutas simbólicas presentese passadas definidoras do habitus a ser incorporado por cada agente conforme a posição que ocupa no espaço social; e (3ª) a visão de escola como espaço de interações socioculturais e políticas, cuja análise requer a apreensão das dinâmicas sociais em seu contexto. A pesquisa empírica foi desenvolvida tendo a observação participante comoprincipal técnica de investigação, respeitados cuidados referentes à validação dos achados e das interpretações. A análise dos dados decorrentes da pesquisa empírica permitiu descrever a história da escola, sua estrutura político-administrativa, os agentes que conformam seu espaço social, o espaço físico da escola, os usos do tempo escolar, o modelo curricular e os critérios que norteiam a seleção e a organização do conhecimento, bem como as rotinas escolares em que se encerram os modos vigentes de transmissão de conteúdos da cultura profissional. A partir desta descrição foi possível sintetizar os elementos da cultura da escola que exercem influência sobre seu currículo e sobre as práticas escolares ali vigentes, evidenciando as bases sociais que os definem e, também, os mecanismos de conservação cultural que nela operam a perpetuação dedeterminado habitus nas novas gerações de cirurgiões-dentistas.
The present thesis consists on an ethnographic case study performed at the Dental School of the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro (UFRJ). The research aimed to identify, at the specific and localized context of a dental school, characteristics of the professional habitus expressed on its curriculum and to describe scholar practices used to communicate and perpetuate them. Three main ideas synthesize the theory that supports the study: (1st) the idea that scholar education carry out the function of socializing new generations through the selection and the institutionalized transmission of certain part of a society’s culture; (2nd) the conception of curriculum as the expression of present and past symbolical fights which define the habitus to be incorporated by each social agent according to its position on the social space; and (3rd) the view of school as a space of socio-cultural and political interactions that shall be analyzed through the observation of the social dynamics on their own context. Empirical investigation had on the participant observation its main technique. The analysis of the data obtained during field research allowed us to describe the history of the school, its political an administrative structure, the agents that compose the school’s social space, the school’s architecture, the uses of time at the school, the curricular model that rules the selection and the organization of knowledge and the scholar routines applied for transmitting the selected contents of the professional culture. Through this description it became possible to synthesize elements of the school’s culture that influence its curriculum and practices, to identify the social structure that defines them and, also, the cultural conservation mechanisms that operate the perpetuation of certain professional habitus on the new generations of dentists.

Testo completoThis thesis examines the lithic assemblage from the 2005-2012 field seasons at the Sarah Boston site in Grafton, Massachusetts. The Sarah Boston site is associated with a multi-generational Nipmuc family living on the site during the late 18th through early 19th centuries. In total, 163 lithic artifacts, primarily quartz flakes and cores, were found throughout the site with concentrations north of a house foundation associated with the Nipmuc family. Reworked gunflints and worked glass were examined as examples of lithic practice associated with artifacts that are conclusively datable to the period after European arrival. Presence of quartz artifacts in an undisturbed B-horizon demonstrates a much-earlier Native component to the Sarah Boston site. Lithics and ground stone tools present in the later intact midden deposit demonstrate that the Nipmuc family interacted with these materials. Given the concentration of flakes found within the midden, it is likely that some portion of these flakes as well as the reworked gunflints and knapped glass were actively used, and perhaps produced, by the occupants of the house as an alternative or replacement of other tools, including iron. This thesis concludes that the practice of knapping persisted on this site into the 19th century indicating a cultural continuity of Nipmuc cultural practices and identity in addition to the adoption of European-produced ceramics, iron knives, and other later materials.

Testo completoThis dissertation explores the nature of the anthropological writings of Georg Forster (1754-94), the German world-traveler (who accompanied Captain Cook on his second voyage in the South-Seas 1772-75), cultural-historian and translator in the late eighteenth century, showing how his anthropology proposes an "ironic" or "sentimental" (in the Schillerian sense) mode of narration. Although many others at the time were exploring what it is to be human, my dissertation argues that Forster's anthropology concerned itself primarily with what it means to write about humanity when one supplements the empirical-rational method of observation with an emphasis on "self-reflexive" and "ironic" (à la Hayden White) modes of writing anthropology, or the story of humanity. This study therefore focuses on those writings gathered around three salient concepts in his anthropological understanding, to which he returns frequently: observation, narration, and translation, presented in three chapters. The thesis not only undertakes close readings of Forster's texts centering on observation, narration, and translation but, crucially, places them within the historical context of late eighteenth century aesthetic and anthropological discourses in Germany. This study ultimately underscores the manner in which Forster's concepts of "sentimental" – i.e. self-reflexive, ironic, and striving towards the goal of perfectibility – observation and narration allow him to accept the fragmentary, exploratory, and temporary nature of knowledge about humanity. At the same time, his "aesthetic" – sentient and open to testing – translation allows him to engage and educate his readers' tolerance towards a provisional, composite and temporal truth in anthropology. In highlighting the self-reflexive as well as an open-to-testing attitude of Forster's anthropology, this dissertation underscores the mutual interaction between eighteenth century aesthetic and anthropological modes of thought.

Testo completoDepuis son apparition en 2003, la grippe aviaire (AG) a été très « féconde », reliant de façon caractéristique des éléments variés, comme des organisations internationales œuvrant dans le domaine de la santé et des fermiers locaux, les gouvernements et les virus de la grippe aviaire, des experts des milieux naturels et le personnel de la santé publique, des organismes de législation agroalimentaire et des écologistes, des ornithologues et l'aviculture; les citoyens et, bien entendu, la volaille. Pour l'anthropologue de la pensée, le phénomène de la grippe aviaire est particulièrement intéressant car il ne peut être décrit à l'aide des concepts de 'nature' et 'culture' qui ont traditionnellement régi les rapports Homme-Nature. La grippe aviaire, est-elle nature ou culture, animale ou humaine, un mélange des deux domaines, ou bien quelque chose d'entièrement différent ? La grippe aviaire entraîne non seulement le développement de nouveaux cadres conceptuels, mais donne naissance par ailleurs à des réalités émergeant de ces cadres. Notre projet de recherche consiste à documenter l'émergence d'une forme à travers l'étude de la grippe aviaire en trois sites différents : 1) des fermes avicoles dans la vallée du Fraser en Colombie Britannique, 2) le Département des Écosystèmes et de la Santé Publique de l'Université de Calgary, et 3) une école d'été sur l'éco-épidémiologie au Nouveau-Brunswick. Pour chaque site de terrain, nous examinons les nouvelles réalités, encore expérimentales et potentiellement éphémères, que la grippe aviaire a générées.
