A ADMINISTRAÇÃO DA EXTENSÃO UNIVERSITÁRIA NAS IES PARTICULARES: LIMITES E POTENCIALIDADES NA VISÃO DOS GESTORES

A presente dissertação trata da visão dos gestores sobre a extensão universitária nas Instituições de Ensino Superior particulares na região do Grande ABC. A revisão do tema indica que extensão universitária é diretamente dependente da visão política da instituição a qual pertence. Existem, portanto, diversos modelos conceituais e práticos. Originalmente assumiu o caráter de cursos livres abertos à sociedade, mais tarde conhecida como prestação de serviços, assessorias, ação comunitária, assistencialismo e atualmente discute-se a extensão universitária sob uma perspectiva de desenvolvimento social e como articuladora entre o ensino e a pesquisa. A pergunta norteadora do trabalho é: de que forma a extensão universitária é administrada nas IES particulares? Por meio de seu objetivo geral, a pesquisa busca analisar a administração da extensão universitária, tendo como foco as Instituições de Ensino Superior particulares na região do Grande ABC. Para auxiliar no alcance deste objetivo geral, foram delimitados dois objetivos específicos: (a) identificar as concepções políticas, assim como as práticas extensionistas declaradas pelas IES, e (b) analisar a visão do gestor na administração da extensão. Os dados coletados foram analisados sob o ponto de vista de três dimensões administrativas, a saber: humana, material e sistêmica. Trata-se de uma pesquisa qualitativa, exploratória e descritiva. A pesquisa documental e entrevistas semiestruturadas fazem parte da coleta de dados que subsidiarão a análise final. A contribuição científico-social que se discute neste trabalho é a reflexão sobre os limites e potencialidades da administração da extensão diante dos atuais diálogos sobre o tema.

The campaign to save Croxteth comprehensive: an ethnographic study of a protest movement

This thesis is based on ethnographic research carried out on a Liverpool protest movement which occurred between November, 1980 and July,1983. The protest movement was waged by residents of the working class community of Croxteth Liverpool who wished to retain their state secondary school, Croxteth Comprehensive. The Liverpool City Council voted in favour of closing Croxteth Comprehensive in January, 1981 because of its declining roles. Residents began theIr campaign as soon as they became aware of intentions to close the school at the end of the previous year. The campaIgn itself went through a number of different phases, distinguishable accordIng to the groups of people involved, the strategy and tactics they employed, the ways in which they justified their campaign, and the goals they pursued. In July of 1982 the organisation which led the protest, the Croxteth Community Action Committee, took illegal possession of the school buildings and ran a pilot summer school project. In September of 1982 they opened the school doors for all secondary pupils on the council estate and began running classes, with the help of volunteer teachers. The school was run successfully in this way for the entire 1982/83 school year. By the end of this period the school was officially reinstated by a new Labour Party majorIty on the city council. This thesis presents a comprehensive account of the entire campaign, from its beginning to end. The campaign is analysed in a number of ways: by situating the closure itself in the economic and political conditions of Liverpool in the 1980s, by examining the relation of Croxteth Comprehensive to its community, by describing the conditions in which different groups of people contributed to the campaign and the changes it went through in its use of tactics, and through a close examination of the activities which took place inside the school during its year of occupation. A number of levels of analysis are used in the study. To explain the closure and the early forms of resistance which developed to oppose it, the structural location of the local government of Liverpool in the late 1970s and early 1980s is described. To explain the relationship of the school to its community, the formation of a group of activists and their leaders, and the resources available to the protestors for pursuing their aims, a single-group model of social action is used. To analyse the establishment of social routines and schooling practices within the school during its occupation, action-theoretica1 models are drawn upon., The chapters of literature review and concept analysis with which this thesis begins link these different levels theoretIcalIy through a model of actIon and its conditions. The theoretical framework employed is reviewed in the last chapter. It is one which could be used to study any social movement, and has applications to other social phenomena as well. Lastly various issues within the sociology of education are examined in light of the events which took place in Croxteth Comprehensive, especially the theory of community education.

A representação social do papel de gestores em organizações não governamentais

The discussions concerning the absence of a management model appropriate to the peculiarities of third sector organizations have not been impeditive to their emphasized expansion in the last decades. In the attempt of understanding this phenomenon from the perspective of those who manage social organizations, this work based on the theory of social representations to understand the notion that organization managers of the third sector - based in Fortaleza CE - have of the part that they play and how this notion influences the direction of their activities. Social representations of managers of four different categories of non-governmental organizations have been investigated, each category composed of two unities. The categories researched were: social integration through art and education, prevention and treatment of alcohol and drug abuse, children s health assistance and community action. By using Doise s Societal Approach, the role of social managers translated in intraindividual, interindividual and situational processes of their actions, has been analysed within the social representations, focusing on beliefs, values, symbols and stories that give meaning to the existence of non-governmental organizations. Analysis and discussion of data displayed the existence of diversity in the understanding of managers within their practice, in other words, the management profile is also its own manager s. The branch where an organization acts is also preponderant in the shaping of a management style. It could be deduced, from to the organizations researched, that professional formation and the manager s social insertion mainly, are determinative factors in the outlining of a management model of its own. It was concluded that, due to heterogeneity of interests and action segments, there is no systematic process for social management among organizations. Management styles are supported by their director s own perception of achievement, who model organizations according to their contingencies
