Vivência de mulheres em situação de cárcere penitenciário durante o período gestacional

The gradual increase of violence in Brazilian society has being resulting in a growing of the prison population over last years, as well as the proportion of women than men. The participation of women in crime and responsibilities within her family makes this phenomenon a growing social problem. Women prisoners are mostly young, in reproductive age, making pregnancy a recurrent situation while they are serving a sentence. The studies about female criminality are poor and not helpful about its real dimension, especially when targeted to women who experienced pregnancy in this environment. Given these considerations, this research had as its object of study the experience of women in prison during pregnancy: analyze the experience of women in prison during the gestational period. This is a descriptive and qualitative study. The data were sourced through a semi-structured interview with nine incarcerated women, between August and September 2011, who met the inclusion criteria previously established, and organized according to the precepts of content analysis according to Bardin. Through this coding and classification process became a central thematic: the experience of women in prison during pregnancy, resulting in three categories: category 1 interpersonal relationships; category 2 - feelings that permeate the pregnant woman in prison; and category 3 absence of health care to incarcerated pregnant. The data were analyzed according to the available literature and the study revealed that interpersonal relationships, maintained by these women in prison, were marked by distance from family members, primarily due to socioeconomic factors, being a challenge for addressing of pregnancy in prison and reports of abuse of power by employees working in the institution. The women, who experience pregnancy in prison are more likely to experience feelings of worry, doubts, sadness and fear for baby s health due to lack of antenatal care and about the prison environment structure to meet your needs. The health care aimed at these women is poor and often does not occur, endangering the baby s life and his own mother, this is being a troubling reality in public health system. Finally, it is expected that this study can give visibility to an issue rarely discussed in the literature and contribute to the construction of specific public policies for this reality, in order to minimize the effects of incarceration during pregnancy

Histórias de vida de mulheres idosas :um estudo sobre o bem-estar subjetivo na velhice

The elderly population growth in Brazil and in the world is an incontestable reality, arising from a significant declining rate in mortality and fertility, resulting from the remarkable improvements in the quality of life of the people. Associated with the introduction of new technologies in the medical area, these issues have been highly contributing for the increase of the population longevity. The numbers of the elderly in Brazil and in the world show female population predominance within the aging segment, a phenomenon known as the feminisation of the old-age . Aging, therefore, is nowadays one of the primary issues and that has been mobilizing the Brazilian s society, since the development raised from this new reality brought with it enormous challenges and complex social implications which are already felt in the daily lives of the societies. My work experience among some age groups has shown that aging is a much differentiated process which has instigated my interest in understanding why aging has to face an overwhelming and painful experience for some people and enriched and full of signification for others. Overviewing, this research aimed to understand the aging development through the analysis of the processes of signification and production of meaning that permeate the aging and the subjective well-being of three aged women participants of the Project Health and Citizenship on Third Age /CEFET-RN, that evidenced attitudes and behaviors concerning the integration and the activity toward the elderly population. The methodological strategy used was History of Life, starting from collecting data based on deep interviews. The analysis of data evidenced that the elderly well-being is a unique and distinct meaningful experience for each person, concerning each story of their lives within differentiated social, cultural, economic context, from this perspective one can demystify the concept of that aging occurs in a homogeneous way for everyone, everywhere and with the same rhythm. The narratives presented in this research showed the human development as being a dialectic, discursive and interactionist process which extends throughout the adult life and continues to the aging life. The guarantee that development and aging are a parallel phenomenon always in interdependence on the preceding phases of live, are corroborated within the studies. This present study confirms that the elderly population can be a phase of growth, personal realization and continued development, without disrespecting the heterogeneous and the subjectivity of the person who ages. Notifying those healthy and well-succeeded aging experiences, this issue has the intention to contribute to demystify the concept of aging as a social problem, illness needed to be treated, and the stereotypy of the elderly being dependent and unproductive

Violência sob o olhar do adolescente autor de Ato Infracional: reflexões fenomenologicas

O envolvimento de jovens com a violência nos últimos anos, no Brasil, tem aumentado significativamente, bem como o número de adolescentes cumprindo medidas socioeducativas com restrição de liberdade. Entretanto, a literatura mostra a produção incipiente de estudos que abordam o jovem infrator a partir da sua própria experiência. Com base nessas evidências, esta pesquisa teve como objetivo compreender como adolescentes autores de atos infracionais experienciam a violência, sejam como agentes, espectadores ou vítimas, sob a ótica da Analítica Existencial, de Martin Heidegger. Trata-se de uma pesquisa qualitativa, de inspiração fenomenológico-hermenêutica, tendo sido utilizada a narrativa como recurso metodológico. Foram realizadas entrevistas semiestruturadas, com dois adolescentes de 16 e 17 anos, egressos de medida socioeducativa de restrição de liberdade. A interpretação das narrativas foi feita a partir dos sentidos que emergiram na experiência relatada e do diálogo entre algumas noções heideggerianas como ser-no-mundo, cuidado e impessoalidade. Os relatos mostraram que a violência está presente desde a infância desses adolescentes, tendo sido presenciada na própria família. Para eles, o comportamento violento representa uma forma de impor respeito e admiração. As experiências podem ser interpretadas como uma expressão das relações entre o ser adolescente e o mundo que caracteriza o seu contexto de vida. Assim, as noções de cuidado, no modo de ocupação, e impessoalidade, são vistas como presentes nas experiências narradas. Por hora, o que apresentamos foi nossa compreensão dessas experiências únicas de ser adolescentes num contexto de violência, mostrando peculiaridades de duas crianças que não queriam ser um problema social, mas lançados num mundo inóspito e cruel, na qual nos absorve para as tramas mais sutis de ser, misturando significações e sentidos num espectro fluido que é o viver. Por fim, esperamos que esta pesquisa possa acrescentar não só aos estudos sobre a violência de jovens, mas também ressaltar a importância de se compreender a violência pelo olhar daqueles que a vivenciam

A argamassa da casa e do conflito: os usos políticos da construção da cidade da esperança feitos pelo grupo aluizista (1964-1966)

Nous nous proposons à analyser les usages politiques que le groupe lié au gouvernement Aluízio Alves a fait d’un complexe d’habitation s’appelé Cidade da Esperança, qui a été construit en Natal dans les années 1960. Ce nouvel espace a été utilisé pour solutionner la crise d’habitation dans la capital, dont le número de personne augmentait fortement. Cette élévation, néanmoins, n’a été pas accompagné pari passu pour l’expansion de l’offre des maisons pour le marché et ce pénurie se transformer dans un problème social e politique. La Cidade da Esperança, alors, a été une réponse de l’État à la population et entre ces dynamiques, le groupe du gouvernement Aluízio Alves a su explorer la question parce qu’il a utilisé l’espace pour négocier avec differents agentes sociaux et il aussi a réussi élire Agnelo Alves, le diretor de la construction, à maire de Natal. Par la construction de cette analyse nous utilisons le journal gouvernamental Tribuna do Norte et le journal catholique A Ordem. Ils ont représenté dans ces pages les problèmes de pénurie des maisons et aussi les appropriations de la Cidade da Esperança. Pour ça nous pouvons reconstruire ces processus historiques. Pour les journaux est possible connaître du quotidien des travaux, les actions des sujets réponsable et les tensions politiques du groupe aluizista avec l’autre lié à Dinarte Mariz. Ainsi, ils possibilites l’étude de l’utilisation de la Cidade da Esperança dans l’intérieur d’une réseau des tensions et l’examen de la recherche pour legitimité dans un champ politique très poralisé.

Escravo moderno em discurso: figuras de ação e ação em discurso nas representações do agir humano

This work has as object of study a social practice: modern slavery of workers in the sugar cane, and aims to present a reflection on maintenance, eradication or modification of this practice. This reflection bases itself upon the concepts of discourse advocated by Critical Discourse Analysis (Fairclough, 2001, 2003, 2006 and Chouliaraki; Fairclough, 1999) associated with Sociodiscursive Interactionism (Bronckart, 1999, 2006, 2008), and the concept of action figures, proposed by Bulea (2010). We follow the five steps outlined in Chouliaraki and Fairclough (1999): a) emphasis on a social problem, b) introduction and discussion of obstacles to tackle the problem, c) considerations concern the problem in practice d) identifying possible ways to past the obstacles, and e) reflection about the analyst role within the problem. In order to achieve step (b) in its discourse materiality axis, it has been identified the thematic content, discourse types, enunciative mechanisms and action figures of testimonials of sugar cane workers and other subjects involved with the problem in the documentaries Bagaço (2006, and Tabuleiro de Cana, Xadrez de Cativeiro (2006). These documentaries bring to the screen a little of sugar cane workers reality within an overexploitation, human rights disrespects and forced work. The analysis of textual/discursive aspects of testimonials has shown the ways in which the (de)construction of the representation of sugar cane action allows understanding of how the problem emerges and how it is rooted in the organization of social life. The general result of this reflection point to the internalization of social practices deep-rooted in evaluations of the sugar cane worker subjective world and from social world values, opinions and rules. The results also show that, in their discourse, workers assume their slavery sometimes consciously, sometimes unconsciously, but only suggest a reaction against the oppression imposed on them because they have internalized and naturalized their enslavement.
