Este artigo procura contribuir para uma compreensão mais aprofundada das políticas desenvolvidas em Portugal, a partir de 2005, em torno da ideia de aprendizagem ao longo da vida, a qual foi considerada pelos diversos Estados-membros da União Europeia como a melhor via para atingir os objetivos da Agenda de Lisboa. Neste contexto, identificou-se um protagonismo mediático assinalável das medidas e resultados associados à Iniciativa Novas Oportunidades, programa que teve como desígnio elevar o patamar de qualificação generalizada dos portugueses para o nível do ensino secundário. Tomando como objeto de estudo os textos publicados em três jornais – Expresso, Públicoe Correio da Manhã– no período entre 2005 e 2013, recorremos à análise do discurso para explorar a forma como a política de educação de adultos no âmbito da Iniciativa Novas Oportunidades foi interpretada na imprensa escrita portuguesa. Encontrámos uma diversidade de perspetivas e interesses em jogo que evidenciaram o forte impacto que a educação de adultos teve nos media, os pontos críticos desta política e os desafios que se colocam no âmbito da aprendizagem ao longo da vida.PALAVRAS-CHAVEAprendizagem ao longo da vida; Iniciativa Novas Oportunidades; Media; Políticas de educação de adultos ABSTRACTThis article seeks to contribute to a deeper understanding of the policiespursued in Portugal, since 2005, around the idea of lifelong learning, whichwas considered by the various Member States of the European Union as the best way to meet the Lisbon Strategy. Within this framework, a considerable prominence of the measures and results associated with the Iniciativa Novas Oportunidades[New Opportunities Initiative] – a program designed to raise the Portuguese population’s level of qualifications to the secondary-school level – was identified in the media. Taking as object of study the texts published in three national newspapers – Expresso, Públicoand Correio da Manhã– in the period between 2005 and 2013, and using discourse analysis, we analysed how the policy on adult education within the Iniciativa Novas Oportunidades was interpreted in the Portuguese newspapers. We have found a diversity of perspectives and interests at stake, showing the strong impact that the adult education had in the media, the critical points of this policy and challenges to be faced within lifelong learning.

Este artigo aborda o carnaval do Recife – Pernambuco, Brasil e de Lisboa – Portugal, que resulta de pesquisa de pós-doutoramento. A compreensão das festas populares envolve a observação, a exploração teórica e a reflexão. As festas populares desses dois espaços apresentam semelhanças entre si, no que diz respeito ao entendimento cultural. No período carnavalesco enfatizam-se as origens do divertimento, calcadas nas práticas do povo, de natureza ritual ou simbólica, encantamento festivo, por seu significado e representação sociocultural. Há também o encadeamento de estratégias de expressão socioespacial e econômica. O carnaval expressa dimensões de uma sociedade formada pela totalidade de suas heranças cultural, econômica e histórica, por ela moldada. Ele como festa que é detêm o sentido de cultura popular. A dimensâo socioespacial expressa formas e estruturas, representação e significado, que torna essa festa uma tradição, eminentemente popular.

O objetivo central deste estudo é apreender a expressão territorial do planejamento urbano, tendo como recorte espacial da investigação o município de Lisboa – Portugal, para atingir esse escopo realizou-se a análise da elaboração e execução das políticas públicas urbanas em Portugal, com foco nos instrumentos de planejamento e gestão urbanos presentes no Plano Diretor Municipal – PDM de Lisboa (PDML, 2012). Considera-se a imbricação entre o ordenamento do território e a elaboração/ concretização das políticas públicas urbanas, uma vez que o rebatimento dessas políticas públicas no território redundará na formatação da ordenação do território, por conseguinte, o PDM constitui-se na principal política pública urbana de planejamento urbano, já que a complexidade do tecido urbano em expansão necessita de diretrizes para se ordenar o espaço urbano conforme os diferentes uso do solo que abarca a dinâmica do espaço urbano em constante incerteza, essa própria do processo de mundialização do capital. O resultado da pesquisa evidencia dois elementos que se considerou avanços no PDML (2012) em relação ao monitoramento da política pública urbana. O primeiro refere-se à criação de uma base de dados que passou a integrar o Programa de Execução e Financiamento do Plano, na qual são inseridas as ações materiais previstas nas metas do Plano, essas ações incluídas no banco de dados serão georreferenciadas, além de apresentarem as informações do custo de financiamento e o grau de desenvolvimento da obra. O segundo elemento vincula-se ao primeiro, pois essa base de dados, que articula os serviços municipais, é um instrumento de monitorização da execução das propostas (obras) prevista no PDML, que irá atender à exigência de avaliação desta política pública via a elaboração de relatórios de monitorização que fará parte do relatório do ordenamento do território de Lisboa.

Este trabalho apresenta os contextos da visionação, em 1977, da telenovela brasileira Gabriela, Cravo e Canela. Justifica-se a escolha do Corpus - dois diários (Diário de Notícias, Diário de Lisboa) e dois semanários (Expresso e O Jornal) explicitando-se as metodologias utilizadas na análise de imprensa. Faz-se o levantamento da agenda da telenovela Gabriela, Cravo e Canela nos quatro jornais seleccionados, confrontando-a com outra agenda, mais lata, da expansão e divulgação da indústria cultural brasileira em Portugal. Considera-se que o êxito desta telenovela antecipa a emergência de uma nova sociedade e estilos de vida, bem como uma outra imagem da mulher, centrados em novos valores, no consumo e nos media.

Abstract Information about historical earthquakes in the Iberian Peninsula going back to Antiquity (Roman times) can be found in different types of documents, such as unpublished contemporary manuscripts preserved in archives, general, and regional histories in Spain and Portugal, published documents and reports on the damage of specific earthquakes, and reports in newspapers and magazines. The 1755 Lisbon earthquake marks an important point for the study of historical earthquakes in the peninsula. The compilation and interpretation of historical data presents many problems, one of which is how to express the many uncertainties in the focal parameters of historical earthquakes in earthquake catalogs.

O artigo em questão é fruto de uma pesquisa etnográfica realizada em Lisboa, no ano de 2010. O kuduro é um estilo de dança e música que surgiu em Luanda, nos anos 1990, e que chegou a Portugal logo em seguida, por meio das relações entre os imigrantes com o país de origem: a Angola. O objetivo é compreender como, ao lado de outras formas de expressão cultural juvenis, em Lisboa, o kuduro, assim como o hip-hop, o rap e o reggae, passou a fazer parte integrante do consumo e da produção cultural dos jovens da periferia. Em meio à música e à dança como formas de entretenimento, um universo de tensões sociais, étnicas e geracionais faz-se presente e faz emergir interessantes processos de identificação social. A escola, a rua e a Internet tornaram-se os principais espaços de socialização do kuduro, que perpassa um estilo de vida que parece constituir laços de afinidade entre imigrantes e descendentes, tendo como referência o país de origem ou mesmo uma África imaginada pela relação de solidariedade entre descendentes da imigração originária dos Países Africanos de Língua Portuguesa. A análise de tais questões está implicada pelas novas dinâmicas dos fluxos contemporâneos transnacionais de pessoas, de produtos culturais e de informações, em contextos metropolitanos e pós-coloniais.

As part of the larger discussion about the persistent and worldwide problem of access to adequate housing, I examine in this article the effects of government-led rehousing efforts in Lisbon, Portugal, through the lens of filmic representations of those effects. Specifically, I look at how residents of both the self-built neighbourhoods (demolished or soon-to-be) and public housing responded to the Projeto Especial de Realojamento through an analysis of two films, the documentary Outros Bairros and the fictional short film Nada Fazi , which represent a sort of ‘before and after’ of those government efforts. The residents’ voices and stories are compared to each other and set against a backdrop of journalistic reporting and sociological studies.

Quinta-feira, dia 10 de fevereiro de 2022, “um estudante de 18 anos foi detido esta quinta-feira pela Polícia Judiciária suspeito do crime de terrorismo, já que estaria há meses a planear atacar os colegas da Faculdade de Ciências da Universidade de Lisboa” (Henriques et al., 2022, para. 1). Um caso sem grande paralelo em Portugal, num contexto mediático caracterizado pelo que é imediato e pela crescente importância das redes sociais e média sociais, como o Twitter, inclusive para a circulação de informação. Parte-se de um entendimento do Twitter como uma plataforma relevante para o jornalismo contemporâneo que conecta fluxos de informação entre partes (Bennett & Segerberg, 2012; Sadler, 2018). Foram extraídos 3.577 tweets no espaço de 1 semana desde o caso, das cinco contas oficiais no Twitter com mais seguidores, de cariz jornalístico/informativo em Portugal. Desses, apenas 104 tweets se focam neste particular caso, destacando-se o facto de o Correio da Manhã apresentar o triplo de tweets do Expresso. Este trabalho utiliza uma abordagem qualitativa para realizar uma análise discursiva, com recurso a nuvens de palavras, que representam visualmente a frequência de termos. A identificação de narrativas, inclusive macro e micronarrativas (Lits, 2015; Motta, 2013), orienta este trabalho, que resulta na identificação da macronarrativa da existência de um ataque numa faculdade da Universidade de Lisboa. A narrativa do terrorismo, apesar de comum no corpus geral não é central, já que se encontra de forma não uniforme entre as cinco nuvens de palavras, sendo identificada nas nuvens de palavras da SIC Notícias, do Jornal de Notícias e do Correio da Manhã. A análise desenvolvida procura auxiliar o desenvolvimento de entendimentos sobre as narrativas utilizadas para dar e construir sentido à cobertura mediática deste caso específico sem grande comparação em Portugal.

Esta dissertação discute a problemática do discurso poético na arquitectura e estabelece possíveis referências entre as artes visuais. Este fenómeno é típico da História da Arte e da História da Arquitectura, mas, aqui, enfatiza-se o século XX, onde existem processos e percursos criativos próprios, que se transportam para a Arquitectura.Ao fazer-se um projecto de arquitectura está-se a agir sobre um território num determinado tempo com uma intenção, onde neste caso, é necessariamente estética. É nesta consciência do agir humano que se fundamenta esta dissertação. Não é só construir, também existem preocupações, que não se esgotam na construção, na técnica e nos processos tecnológicos, ou na própria função. Reconhecer o agir artístico permite levar-nos a compreendê-lo e a identificar os seus fundamentos, onde nesta dissertação esse agir é comparado com outros actos do mesmo valor. É por este meio que se compreende o agir no projecto do Pátio D. Fradique, como registo artístico no espaço-tempo. A comparação entre os diversos objectos de arte, entre as formas de pensar que lhes dão origem, a investigação dos processos mentais desenvolvidos pelo arquitecto e pelo artista, permite compreender como se formam as suas culturas eclécticas e compreender a natureza da Arte. Foi isto que eu senti ao longo do desenvolvimento do projecto e depois, já com algum distanciamento, Eu senti algo de especial no processo criativo do projecto, do qual só me fui consciencializando à medida que foi feita a tese, que me levou a compreender o que é o processo criativo, a sua articulação mental que referencia diversas obras. Uma vez concluída uma obra, que seria o projecto do Pátio D. Fradique, ela seria uma dessas referências para o futuro. Embora, não tenha sido construído, já permite, no entanto, imaginar esse processo, porque permitiu a reflexão que é feita na própria tese. Poder-se-á, então, falar de uma última fronteira do objecto em que ele se torna referenciável para futuras criações artísticas e para fundamentar o próprio conhecimento.

A busca pelo sentimento e pela verdade intrínseca da arquitectura, tem sido, ao longo do tempo, muito abordada e debatida. Sendo que a esfera desta arte abrange e define a grande maioria dos cenários onde decorre a vida humana, é cada vez mais importante descobrir como a desenvolver e qualificar. Procura-se a sua essência, o que a define e o que a constitui, genuína e intrinsecamente. Instalam-se modas, sem verdade nem profundidade. Estas, apenas respondem a critérios formais pré-definidos, considerados pela maioria como atitudes modernas. Confunde-se arquitectura com aparência, sentimento com fugacidade, verdade com superficialidade. Entre tantos equívocos e ambiguidades, existem felizmente, casos de sucesso. Destes, destacamos três, como obras de referência da presente dissertação. São eles: o Centro Cultural de Belém, na Praça do Império em Lisboa, dos arquitectos Vittorio Gregotti e Manuel Salgado; a Fundação Calouste Gulbenkian também em Lisboa, da equipa de Arquitectos Alberto Pessoa, Pedro Cid e Ruy Jervis d´Athouguia; e por último o Centro Galego de Arte Contemporânea em Santiago de Compostela, do arquitecto Álvaro Siza Vieira.

Relatório de estágio realizado no âmbito do mestrado em Musicoterapia, Universidade Lusíada de Lisboa, 2017
Exame público realizado em 2 de Março de 2018
Por razões éticas e deontológicas, o documento apenas se encontra disponível parcialmente
O presente documento constitui um relatório de estágio realizado no âmbito do mestrado em Musicoterapia da Universidade Lusíada de Lisboa, refletindo o trabalho de 7 meses de estágio no centro de dia Dr. Carlos Garcia, um centro de dia constituinte da rede da associação Alzheimer Portugal. Ao longo deste documento será feita uma abordagem à demência, à doença de alzheimer e à musicoterapia. Tendo estas àreas como base, o foco do documento estará na aplicação da musicoterapia à população que vive com a problemática das demências. Neste estágio teve-se como princípios orientadores a terapia centrada no cliente, proposta por Carl Rogers e o cuidado centrado na pessoa, o que se traduziu, ao longo do estágio, numa abordagem de caráter humanista através da qual se pretendeu promover o bem-estar e a interação em idosos demenciados. Através destes princípios orientadores, foi desenvolvido um trabalho que teve como principal alvo os utentes que estão no centro de dia sem participar em qualquer atividade ou que participam muito pouco. Através do trabalho com utentes cujo grau de demência levou à deterioração motora e cognitiva e ao consequente isolamento social, foi possível estudar a eficácia da musicoterapia em programas de cuidados na alzheimer enquanto meio proporcionador de bem-estar e de interação.
The present paper is an intership report, realized in the scope of the master degree in music therapy of Universidade Lusíada de Lisboa and reflects the work of 7 months of intership in centro de dia Dr. Carlos Garcia. This paper will approach the subjects of dementia, alzheimer’s disease and music therapy. With these subjects as baseline, the focus of the paper will be on the application of musictherapy in people with dementia. This intership had, by guiding principles, the client centered therapy, proposed by Carl Rogers, and person centered care. Through these humanistic principals, it was developed a work that had by primary target the users who are in the care center without any ativity during the day. Through working with users whose dementia’s grade induced motor e cognitive deterioration and consequent social isolation, it was possible to study the efficiency of musictherapy in alzheimer’s care programas as a mean of well-being and interaction.

A presente investigação pretende estudar a importância do esquisso, como instrumento da Arquitectura, entendendo-o como elemento basilar e expedito da metodologia projectual. Assim, são estudados esquissos pertencentes a três projectos da autoria do arquitecto Álvaro Siza Vieira. O projecto, compreendido como a incessante procura de soluções, pretende encontrar uma solução que responda a determinado programa e a um contexto específico. É no decorrer deste processo, que o esquisso tem um papel preponderante, servindo como instrumento de confronto de ideias. O esquisso é um instinto eficaz de crítica na metodologia de projecto. Este é o primeiro elemento para comunicar e fixar uma ideia de projecto, é notória a sua capacidade transmissora de essência e rigor na representação de um determinado ambiente, imaginado para um determinado lugar. Simultaneamente, possui a capacidade de espoletar, ancorar e a apresentar ideias que permaneciam até aí apenas na cabeça do arquitecto, transformando-se na sua primeira concretização física. Apresenta-se como elemento intuitivo e pessoal, deve ter-se presente a que aquele que desenha, além de expor uma ideia também se expõe, ou seja, demonstra a sua visão sobre determinado assunto. Tal como Le Corbusier o descreveu: “Existe um claro contraste entre um primeiro momento retratado tenuemente, tido ainda como inicial na fase de projecto e um momento posterior, onde as ideias são representadas de modo seguro e definido.“ É sob este espectro que se crê pertinente a análise dos esquissos e em alguns casos, a sua respectiva comparação com a obra já construída. Perante este contexto são lidas criticamente três obras de Siza Vieira através dos seus esquissos. O âmbito das mesmas é particular e específico, une-as o seu autor e a sua metodologia. Esta leitura pretende compreender como são cimentadas ideias e de que modo podem evoluir ou até serem eliminadas, ao longo de todo o processo projectual. As obras eleitas representam diferentes tipologias e temas na Arquitectura, todas essenciais no quotidiano humano. As obras em estudo reportam-se a uma habitação, a uma igreja e um pavilhão, abrangendo também escalas muito distintas. São trabalhados conceitos que se relacionam com estes programas a, casa, programa por excelência da Arquitectura, a igreja, onde são transportadas para o desenho questões relacionadas com o domínio do sagrado. Por fim, no equipamento público, uma simbologia particular, onde o conceito de monumento é particularmente trabalhado. Além destes conceitos o arquitecto, ao esquissar tenta recriar a vivência dos espaços, a interacção de umas volumetrias com as outras, a incidência da luz e testa a materialidade. O esquisso é assim uma ferramenta de estudo e de interpretação da realidade.
The presente work aimes to demonstrate the importance of the scketch, as an useful instrument in Architecture, beliving it to be, a core and expeditious element of the project metodology. Therefore diferent sketchs from tree diferent projects will be analised. The project as a research seeks constantly for solutions, aiming for a viable one as a response for a special kind of a program and a specific context. The sketch represents an important method of research, being the element that questions and confronts the ideas in a project. It is believed that the sketches are a viable method. It is a fast, intuitive method that communicates very quickly the ideas of the project. Regardless the exactitude, it is notorious it’s enormous capacity of transmitting the essence of an atmosphere picturing the environment of a place. It also possesses the ability of memorizing and anchoring the notions that were locked inside the architect’s mind, becoming the first realization of the ethereal. Therefore, the sketch is an important, instant and elementary mean of communication, for the creator towards others, that until then only existet in their mind’s creator. It presents itself as an intuitive, personal e quick way to expose the notions of the drawer, besides exposing the idea, it also exposes the drawer. It is beneath this spectre, that is believed to be pertinent the analysis of the sketches provident from tree projects, of the architect Álvaro Siza Vieira. What assembles these tree projects, besides its author, is the methodology applied in their development. The analysis pretends to demonstrate who ideas are conceived and memorized, witnessing their evolution or death, during the process of project. The projects represent different typologies and teems in Architecture, all of the essentials to daily living. The sketches belong to a house, a church and a pavilion, comprehending different scale. Distinct concepts are clearly worked in these projects, from the house, which is an important program to work in Architecture, through the sacred (in the church) and also the program of the pavilion, that belongs to a public space, and where a particular symbology is worked in different levels. Furthermore, these concepts are worked every time that the architect draws and tries to create the living experience of theses spaces, the interaction of the volumes with each other, the light and the materials in these spaces. The sketch is a tool, a useful one, that interprets reality. This is done with different approaches depending on the space or the detail in study.

This book examines the history of rap music expressed in Cape Verdean Kriolu in Portugal. Kriolu is a hybrid language spoken by all Cape Verdeans, either native to the archipelago or located in diasporic communities. It emerged in the late fifteenth century through Portuguese colonialism in West Africa and as a result of the Iberian expulsion of Jews and Muslims under the purview of the Spanish Inquisition. Drawing on fieldwork and archival research in Portugal and Cape Verde, this book offers an account of Kriolu rappers in Lisbon and their roles in challenging and potentially transforming metropolitan Portuguese identities. It extends Christian Joppke's interpretation of citizenship in terms of migration by making the encounter the theoretical focus. To this end, the book highlights Creole and grounds the theory in the unique experiences and histories of Cape Verdeans. Through its study of Kriolu rappers in Lisbon, the book illustrates the importance of creolization to identity formation and cultural production.

Nationalism: Past as Prologue began as a single volume being compiled by Ad Akande, a scholar from South Africa, who proposed it to me as co-author about two years ago. The original idea was to examine how the damaging roots of nationalism have been corroding political systems around the world, and creating dangerous obstacles for necessary international cooperation. Since I (Bruce E. Johansen) has written profusely about climate change (global warming, a.k.a. infrared forcing), I suggested a concerted effort in that direction. This is a worldwide existential threat that affects every living thing on Earth. It often compounds upon itself, so delays in reducing emissions of fossil fuels are shortening the amount of time remaining to eliminate the use of fossil fuels to preserve a livable planet. Nationalism often impedes solutions to this problem (among many others), as nations place their singular needs above the common good. Our initial proposal got around, and abstracts on many subjects arrived. Within a few weeks, we had enough good material for a 100,000-word book. The book then fattened to two moderate volumes and then to four two very hefty tomes. We tried several different titles as good submissions swelled. We also discovered that our best contributors were experts in their fields, which ranged the world. We settled on three stand-alone books:” 1/ nationalism and racial justice. Our first volume grew as the growth of Black Lives Matter following the brutal killing of George Floyd ignited protests over police brutality and other issues during 2020, following the police assassination of Floyd in Minneapolis. It is estimated that more people took part in protests of police brutality during the summer of 2020 than any other series of marches in United States history. This includes upheavals during the 1960s over racial issues and against the war in Southeast Asia (notably Vietnam). We choose a volume on racism because it is one of nationalism’s main motive forces. This volume provides a worldwide array of work on nationalism’s growth in various countries, usually by authors residing in them, or in the United States with ethnic ties to the nation being examined, often recent immigrants to the United States from them. Our roster of contributors comprises a small United Nations of insightful, well-written research and commentary from Indonesia, New Zealand, Australia, China, India, South Africa, France, Portugal, Estonia, Hungary, Russia, Poland, Kazakhstan, Georgia, and the United States. Volume 2 (this one) describes and analyzes nationalism, by country, around the world, except for the United States; and 3/material directly related to President Donald Trump, and the United States. The first volume is under consideration at the Texas A & M University Press. The other two are under contract to Nova Science Publishers (which includes social sciences). These three volumes may be used individually or as a set. Environmental material is taken up in appropriate places in each of the three books. * * * * * What became the United States of America has been strongly nationalist since the English of present-day Massachusetts and Jamestown first hit North America’s eastern shores. The country propelled itself across North America with the self-serving ideology of “manifest destiny” for four centuries before Donald Trump came along. Anyone who believes that a Trumpian affection for deportation of “illegals” is a new thing ought to take a look at immigration and deportation statistics in Adam Goodman’s The Deportation Machine: America’s Long History of Deporting Immigrants (Princeton University Press, 2020). Between 1920 and 2018, the United States deported 56.3 million people, compared with 51.7 million who were granted legal immigration status during the same dates. Nearly nine of ten deportees were Mexican (Nolan, 2020, 83). This kind of nationalism, has become an assassin of democracy as well as an impediment to solving global problems. Paul Krugman wrote in the New York Times (2019:A-25): that “In their 2018 book, How Democracies Die, the political scientists Steven Levitsky and Daniel Ziblatt documented how this process has played out in many countries, from Vladimir Putin’s Russia, to Recep Erdogan’s Turkey, to Viktor Orban’s Hungary. Add to these India’s Narendra Modi, China’s Xi Jinping, and the United States’ Donald Trump, among others. Bit by bit, the guardrails of democracy have been torn down, as institutions meant to serve the public became tools of ruling parties and self-serving ideologies, weaponized to punish and intimidate opposition parties’ opponents. On paper, these countries are still democracies; in practice, they have become one-party regimes….And it’s happening here [the United States] as we speak. If you are not worried about the future of American democracy, you aren’t paying attention” (Krugmam, 2019, A-25). We are reminded continuously that the late Carl Sagan, one of our most insightful scientific public intellectuals, had an interesting theory about highly developed civilizations. Given the number of stars and planets that must exist in the vast reaches of the universe, he said, there must be other highly developed and organized forms of life. Distance may keep us from making physical contact, but Sagan said that another reason we may never be on speaking terms with another intelligent race is (judging from our own example) could be their penchant for destroying themselves in relatively short order after reaching technological complexity. This book’s chapters, introduction, and conclusion examine the worldwide rise of partisan nationalism and the damage it has wrought on the worldwide pursuit of solutions for issues requiring worldwide scope, such scientific co-operation public health and others, mixing analysis of both. We use both historical description and analysis. This analysis concludes with a description of why we must avoid the isolating nature of nationalism that isolates people and encourages separation if we are to deal with issues of world-wide concern, and to maintain a sustainable, survivable Earth, placing the dominant political movement of our time against the Earth’s existential crises. Our contributors, all experts in their fields, each have assumed responsibility for a country, or two if they are related. This work entwines themes of worldwide concern with the political growth of nationalism because leaders with such a worldview are disinclined to co-operate internationally at a time when nations must find ways to solve common problems, such as the climate crisis. Inability to cooperate at this stage may doom everyone, eventually, to an overheated, stormy future plagued by droughts and deluges portending shortages of food and other essential commodities, meanwhile destroying large coastal urban areas because of rising sea levels. Future historians may look back at our time and wonder why as well as how our world succumbed to isolating nationalism at a time when time was so short for cooperative intervention which is crucial for survival of a sustainable earth. Pride in language and culture is salubrious to individuals’ sense of history and identity. Excess nationalism that prevents international co-operation on harmful worldwide maladies is quite another. As Pope Francis has pointed out: For all of our connectivity due to expansion of social media, ability to communicate can breed contempt as well as mutual trust. “For all our hyper-connectivity,” said Francis, “We witnessed a fragmentation that made it more difficult to resolve problems that affect us all” (Horowitz, 2020, A-12). The pope’s encyclical, titled “Brothers All,” also said: “The forces of myopic, extremist, resentful, and aggressive nationalism are on the rise.” The pope’s document also advocates support for migrants, as well as resistance to nationalist and tribal populism. Francis broadened his critique to the role of market capitalism, as well as nationalism has failed the peoples of the world when they need co-operation and solidarity in the face of the world-wide corona virus pandemic. Humankind needs to unite into “a new sense of the human family [Fratelli Tutti, “Brothers All”], that rejects war at all costs” (Pope, 2020, 6-A). Our journey takes us first to Russia, with the able eye and honed expertise of Richard D. Anderson, Jr. who teaches as UCLA and publishes on the subject of his chapter: “Putin, Russian identity, and Russia’s conduct at home and abroad.” Readers should find Dr. Anderson’s analysis fascinating because Vladimir Putin, the singular leader of Russian foreign and domestic policy these days (and perhaps for the rest of his life, given how malleable Russia’s Constitution has become) may be a short man physically, but has high ambitions. One of these involves restoring the old Russian (and Soviet) empire, which would involve re-subjugating a number of nations that broke off as the old order dissolved about 30 years ago. President (shall we say czar?) Putin also has international ambitions, notably by destabilizing the United States, where election meddling has become a specialty. The sight of Putin and U.S. president Donald Trump, two very rich men (Putin $70-$200 billion; Trump $2.5 billion), nuzzling in friendship would probably set Thomas Jefferson and Vladimir Lenin spinning in their graves. The road of history can take some unanticipated twists and turns. Consider Poland, from which we have an expert native analysis in chapter 2, Bartosz Hlebowicz, who is a Polish anthropologist and journalist. His piece is titled “Lawless and Unjust: How to Quickly Make Your Own Country a Puppet State Run by a Group of Hoodlums – the Hopeless Case of Poland (2015–2020).” When I visited Poland to teach and lecture twice between 2006 and 2008, most people seemed to be walking on air induced by freedom to conduct their own affairs to an unusual degree for a state usually squeezed between nationalists in Germany and Russia. What did the Poles then do in a couple of decades? Read Hlebowicz’ chapter and decide. It certainly isn’t soft-bellied liberalism. In Chapter 3, with Bruce E. Johansen, we visit China’s western provinces, the lands of Tibet as well as the Uighurs and other Muslims in the Xinjiang region, who would most assuredly resent being characterized as being possessed by the Chinese of the Han to the east. As a student of Native American history, I had never before thought of the Tibetans and Uighurs as Native peoples struggling against the Independence-minded peoples of a land that is called an adjunct of China on most of our maps. The random act of sitting next to a young woman on an Air India flight out of Hyderabad, bound for New Delhi taught me that the Tibetans had something to share with the Lakota, the Iroquois, and hundreds of other Native American states and nations in North America. Active resistance to Chinese rule lasted into the mid-nineteenth century, and continues today in a subversive manner, even in song, as I learned in 2018 when I acted as a foreign adjudicator on a Ph.D. dissertation by a Tibetan student at the University of Madras (in what is now in a city called Chennai), in southwestern India on resistance in song during Tibet’s recent history. Tibet is one of very few places on Earth where a young dissident can get shot to death for singing a song that troubles China’s Quest for Lebensraum. The situation in Xinjiang region, where close to a million Muslims have been interned in “reeducation” camps surrounded with brick walls and barbed wire. They sing, too. Come with us and hear the music. Back to Europe now, in Chapter 4, to Portugal and Spain, we find a break in the general pattern of nationalism. Portugal has been more progressive governmentally than most. Spain varies from a liberal majority to military coups, a pattern which has been exported to Latin America. A situation such as this can make use of the term “populism” problematic, because general usage in our time usually ties the word into a right-wing connotative straightjacket. “Populism” can be used to describe progressive (left-wing) insurgencies as well. José Pinto, who is native to Portugal and also researches and writes in Spanish as well as English, in “Populism in Portugal and Spain: a Real Neighbourhood?” provides insight into these historical paradoxes. Hungary shares some historical inclinations with Poland (above). Both emerged from Soviet dominance in an air of developing freedom and multicultural diversity after the Berlin Wall fell and the Soviet Union collapsed. Then, gradually at first, right wing-forces began to tighten up, stripping structures supporting popular freedom, from the courts, mass media, and other institutions. In Chapter 5, Bernard Tamas, in “From Youth Movement to Right-Liberal Wing Authoritarianism: The Rise of Fidesz and the Decline of Hungarian Democracy” puts the renewed growth of political and social repression into a context of worldwide nationalism. Tamas, an associate professor of political science at Valdosta State University, has been a postdoctoral fellow at Harvard University and a Fulbright scholar at the Central European University in Budapest, Hungary. His books include From Dissident to Party Politics: The Struggle for Democracy in Post-Communist Hungary (2007). Bear in mind that not everyone shares Orbán’s vision of what will make this nation great, again. On graffiti-covered walls in Budapest, Runes (traditional Hungarian script) has been found that read “Orbán is a motherfucker” (Mikanowski, 2019, 58). Also in Europe, in Chapter 6, Professor Ronan Le Coadic, of the University of Rennes, Rennes, France, in “Is There a Revival of French Nationalism?” Stating this title in the form of a question is quite appropriate because France’s nationalistic shift has built and ebbed several times during the last few decades. For a time after 2000, it came close to assuming the role of a substantial minority, only to ebb after that. In 2017, the candidate of the National Front reached the second round of the French presidential election. This was the second time this nationalist party reached the second round of the presidential election in the history of the Fifth Republic. In 2002, however, Jean-Marie Le Pen had only obtained 17.79% of the votes, while fifteen years later his daughter, Marine Le Pen, almost doubled her father's record, reaching 33.90% of the votes cast. Moreover, in the 2019 European elections, re-named Rassemblement National obtained the largest number of votes of all French political formations and can therefore boast of being "the leading party in France.” The brutality of oppressive nationalism may be expressed in personal relationships, such as child abuse. While Indonesia and Aotearoa [the Maoris’ name for New Zealand] hold very different ranks in the United Nations Human Development Programme assessments, where Indonesia is classified as a medium development country and Aotearoa New Zealand as a very high development country. In Chapter 7, “Domestic Violence Against Women in Indonesia and Aotearoa New Zealand: Making Sense of Differences and Similarities” co-authors, in Chapter 8, Mandy Morgan and Dr. Elli N. Hayati, from New Zealand and Indonesia respectively, found that despite their socio-economic differences, one in three women in each country experience physical or sexual intimate partner violence over their lifetime. In this chapter ther authors aim to deepen understandings of domestic violence through discussion of the socio-economic and demographic characteristics of theit countries to address domestic violence alongside studies of women’s attitudes to gender norms and experiences of intimate partner violence. One of the most surprising and upsetting scholarly journeys that a North American student may take involves Adolf Hitler’s comments on oppression of American Indians and Blacks as he imagined the construction of the Nazi state, a genesis of nationalism that is all but unknown in the United States of America, traced in this volume (Chapter 8) by co-editor Johansen. Beginning in Mein Kampf, during the 1920s, Hitler explicitly used the westward expansion of the United States across North America as a model and justification for Nazi conquest and anticipated colonization by Germans of what the Nazis called the “wild East” – the Slavic nations of Poland, the Baltic states, Ukraine, and Russia, most of which were under control of the Soviet Union. The Volga River (in Russia) was styled by Hitler as the Germans’ Mississippi, and covered wagons were readied for the German “manifest destiny” of imprisoning, eradicating, and replacing peoples the Nazis deemed inferior, all with direct references to events in North America during the previous century. At the same time, with no sense of contradiction, the Nazis partook of a long-standing German romanticism of Native Americans. One of Goebbels’ less propitious schemes was to confer honorary Aryan status on Native American tribes, in the hope that they would rise up against their oppressors. U.S. racial attitudes were “evidence [to the Nazis] that America was evolving in the right direction, despite its specious rhetoric about equality.” Ming Xie, originally from Beijing, in the People’s Republic of China, in Chapter 9, “News Coverage and Public Perceptions of the Social Credit System in China,” writes that The State Council of China in 2014 announced “that a nationwide social credit system would be established” in China. “Under this system, individuals, private companies, social organizations, and governmental agencies are assigned a score which will be calculated based on their trustworthiness and daily actions such as transaction history, professional conduct, obedience to law, corruption, tax evasion, and academic plagiarism.” The “nationalism” in this case is that of the state over the individual. China has 1.4 billion people; this system takes their measure for the purpose of state control. Once fully operational, control will be more subtle. People who are subject to it, through modern technology (most often smart phones) will prompt many people to self-censor. Orwell, modernized, might write: “Your smart phone is watching you.” Ming Xie holds two Ph.Ds, one in Public Administration from University of Nebraska at Omaha and another in Cultural Anthropology from the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, Beijing, where she also worked for more than 10 years at a national think tank in the same institution. While there she summarized news from non-Chinese sources for senior members of the Chinese Communist Party. Ming is presently an assistant professor at the Department of Political Science and Criminal Justice, West Texas A&M University. In Chapter 10, analyzing native peoples and nationhood, Barbara Alice Mann, Professor of Honours at the University of Toledo, in “Divide, et Impera: The Self-Genocide Game” details ways in which European-American invaders deprive the conquered of their sense of nationhood as part of a subjugation system that amounts to genocide, rubbing out their languages and cultures -- and ultimately forcing the native peoples to assimilate on their own, for survival in a culture that is foreign to them. Mann is one of Native American Studies’ most acute critics of conquests’ contradictions, and an author who retrieves Native history with a powerful sense of voice and purpose, having authored roughly a dozen books and numerous book chapters, among many other works, who has traveled around the world lecturing and publishing on many subjects. Nalanda Roy and S. Mae Pedron in Chapter 11, “Understanding the Face of Humanity: The Rohingya Genocide.” describe one of the largest forced migrations in the history of the human race, the removal of 700,000 to 800,000 Muslims from Buddhist Myanmar to Bangladesh, which itself is already one of the most crowded and impoverished nations on Earth. With about 150 million people packed into an area the size of Nebraska and Iowa (population less than a tenth that of Bangladesh, a country that is losing land steadily to rising sea levels and erosion of the Ganges river delta. The Rohingyas’ refugee camp has been squeezed onto a gigantic, eroding, muddy slope that contains nearly no vegetation. However, Bangladesh is majority Muslim, so while the Rohingya may starve, they won’t be shot to death by marauding armies. Both authors of this exquisite (and excruciating) account teach at Georgia Southern University in Savannah, Georgia, Roy as an associate professor of International Studies and Asian politics, and Pedron as a graduate student; Roy originally hails from very eastern India, close to both Myanmar and Bangladesh, so he has special insight into the context of one of the most brutal genocides of our time, or any other. This is our case describing the problems that nationalism has and will pose for the sustainability of the Earth as our little blue-and-green orb becomes more crowded over time. The old ways, in which national arguments often end in devastating wars, are obsolete, given that the Earth and all the people, plants, and other animals that it sustains are faced with the existential threat of a climate crisis that within two centuries, more or less, will flood large parts of coastal cities, and endanger many species of plants and animals. To survive, we must listen to the Earth, and observe her travails, because they are increasingly our own.

AbstractListening to children in educational settings is vital for establishing inclusive and equitable environments. This approach recognizes children as active agents and contributors to their education, enabling them to express their needs and participate in decision-making processes. By involving children in educational discourse, pedagogical practices can better align with their interests, resulting in more effective, engaging, and democratic learning experiences. The synergy between Childhood Studies and Educational Sciences underscores the necessity of heeding children’s voices to enhance educational quality and foster active citizenship. This chapter presents the findings of the SMOOTH subproject—RED_Rights, Equity, and Diversity in Educational Contexts. It conducted three case studies in Lisbon, Portugal, involving focus groups with children from diverse educational contexts, involving both formal and non-formal settings, between September and October 2022. These studies aimed to explore diverse dimensions of the educational commons concept, including children’s roles as commoners, commoning practices, and communal aspects related to goods and values within educational and community settings. The findings apprise children’s perspectives as citizens and commoners, highlighting their creativity, self-awareness, interests, and active participation in activities. Additionally, they shed light on emotional and expressive reactions and highlight intersectionality issues within these contexts. This research underscores the vital importance of listening to children, ultimately enhancing educational quality, and promoting active citizenship.

This presentation introduces the BRIDGE research project, its core objectives and the main activities that are being developed in view of stimulating local action for forest widfires risk reduction. BRIDGE is a participatory action research project (PCIF/AGT/0072/2019) about the development of strategies for forest fire risk reduction, mainly through preventive action, that build upon scientific and local knowledge and engage local community action. BRIDGE means linking science and local communities to reduce the vulnerability to forest fires risk. It was initiated in March 2021, with the Instituto Superior Técnico, Universidade de Lisboa coordinating a consortium that includes the Laboratório Nacional de Engenharia Civil and the Universidade of Algarve. BRIDGE adopted the Monchique municipality (southern Portugal, Algarve region) as a case study, but aims to develop knowledge, tools and experiences that can be shared with other forest fire risk prone regions in Portugal and elsewhere. An Innovation Laboratory (InnoLab) is central in BRIDGE as a privileged space aiming to promote dialogue and knowledge sharing between local communities, science and organizations involved in forest wildfire risk reduction, in this case in the Monchique municipality. The main objective of the InnoLab is to bring together all relevant multiple actors that act, directly or indirectly, in the management of forest territories to promote social learning about forest wildfire risk, strengthening networks and building skills and capacities, both socially and institutionally, to foster participatory processes focused on forest wildfire risk reduction. In Monchique, among the actors involved are community leaders (formal and informal), representatives of local entities (local government, associations and cooperatives), and the organizations that are part of the Integrated Management System for Rural Fires (SGIFR) and that have the competencies to act in plans, programs, and policies focused on the management of forest fires, as established in the National Plan for Integrated Management of Rural Fires (PNGIFR - RCM 45-A/2020). The Participatory Map has been adopted as a participatory methodology in the InnoLab, involving communities, local organizations and other key actors in the process of identification, analysis and management of forest territories to enhance wildfire risk reduction in Monchique. Participatory cartography allows a visual expression of the realities perceived by communities and local actors through characteristics of the territories 'filtered' by local experiences and perceptions. The visualization and interpretation of risk areas and local vulnerabilities then leads to the identification of strategies for forest wildfire risk reduction that integrate both bottom-up and top-down perspectives. The presentation will share achieved outcomes from collective debates that aim to broaden fair and balanced dialogues as well as the identification of self-organization of activities that can lead to better local resilience.
