Operación masacre: la fundación mitológica del testimonio (Estudios)

A partir de Operación masacre, de Rodolfo Walsh, la autora distingue, en este ensayo, el testimonio de otras narrativas. Señala que no es literatura de bandidos, porque el sustrato son memorias de víctimas o de sobrevivientes de la impune violencia de Estado. Afirma que tampoco es reportaje o crónica periodística: en estos últimos no median una serie de entrevistas orales ni se plantean imágenes históricas totalizadoras. La autora insiste en el carácter revolucionario del testimonio, que busca construir una verdad absoluta, un discurso sin fisuras. A diferencia de la novela-testimonio, que es instrumento de conocimiento, este género tendría un sentido fundamentalmente histórico. Sostiene que, en Argentina, las víctimas directas de la violencia son quienes pueden solicitar reparación, por eso, los escritores de testimonio de la posdictadura se debaten entre la pertenencia al grupo de víctimas y la voluntad de asumir las causas políticas. Nofal concluye que Walsh, a diferencia de ellos, toma la palabra y dice la verdad desde su lugar de ciudadano y desde el espacio literario.

Förståelse, bedömningar och hjälpinsatser : Socialarbetares arbete med män som våldsoffer

This report outlines the background to, and presents the results from the Crime Victim Compensation and Support Authority funded project "Social Workers' understanding of men as victims of crime". The project aimed at describing and analyzing how social workers understand and work with male victims of violence. More precisely, the research has focused on how social workers describe men's vulnerability and how they understand men's needs for assistance, what assistance that is provided and the way the constellations of perpetrators and victims of different gender and contexts in which the violence occurs in affect the understanding of male victims of violence. The study has also been devoted to the question of whether the Support Centers for young crime victims in Sweden provide different types of and different amount of help to young men and women afflicted of violence. The project was conducted in three substudies. The results from substudy 1 show that more young men than women seek support from the Support centers studied. Men predominate in number of cases and in the different categories of crime. The results also show that young men on average receive less assistance over a shorter average duration than young women. This applies irrespective of the category of offense that the vulnerability applies to. Furthermore, the young men, compared to the women, proportionally receive fewer interventions characterized as support and a greater proportion of interventions in the form of information. The results also show that the young men are referred on for further action to a lesser extent than is the case for women. The results from substudy 2 show that social workers tend to focus on whether, and to what extent, young men who are victims of violence themselves have behaved provocatively before the violence incident and if they have put themselves in a social situation that could be interpreted as having contributed to an escalation of the violence they have been subjected to. The results from substudy 2 also show that social workers talk about the men as active in the violent situations they have been involved in and dwell on the extent to which the young men's own actions have contributed to the violence. The results also show that young men who are victims of violence are described as "reluctant" victims who are trying to cope with their situation on their own without the involvement of professional or other helper. The young men are also described as reluctant to talk about their feelings. The results of substudy 3 show that social workers believe that young men, when they become victims of violence, risks losing their sense of autonomy, initiative and decisiveness, that is, attributes that are often linked to the dominating cultural image of masculinity. Furthermore, the results show that social workers estimate that men's practicing of their masculinity, but also the response that men who are traumatized get from society, creates difficulties for them to get help. The results from substudy 3 also shows that attributes and actions that can be connected to the masculinity of young men's, as well as a lack of such attributes and actions are considered to be adequate explanations for the violence the men has suffered. When it comes to violence in public places it is the masculinity that explains the violence and its escalation. When it comes to domestic violence it is the lack of expected male attributes and actions that are used as explanations for the violence that have occurred. The discussion is devoted to the question of how the results should be understood based on the concepts of self-performance, interpretation, negotiation and categorizations, and the consequences the results obtained should have for gender sensitive social work given to abused men.

Våld på jobbet : Beskrivningar av våld i arbetslivet 1978–2004 i facklig press

Violence at work as a social problem: a study of the media coverage on workplace violence in Swedish trade union journals 1978–2004 The main purpose of this study was to find out the extent of the unions media coverage on workplace violence and the ways in which the topic was framed. The study shows that the reporting of violence in the workplace described in journals is on a stable level during the period 1978–98. However from the year 2000 and onwards, there is a clear increase in the attention. Four categories of workplace violence were used to identify and recognize different types of violence: intrusive-, consumer-, relationship-and organizational violence. This shows that much of the attention over time has shifted from intrusive violence to organizational violence and consumer violence. What seems to have happened is that workplace violence has become more than just robberies and assaults in the retail business. The stereotypical image of the criminal is challenged by non-traditional criminals like nurses, elderly people and companies. Certain groups, e.g. care workers, come to account for an increasing proportion of attention, both as perpetrators and victims of violence. This study is an important step in understanding the increased reports of workplace violence in Sweden.

Gestão de pessoas na perícia criminal de Minas Gerais: condições motivacionais, relações interpessoais, liderança, qualidade no trabalho e na vida

O perito criminal é o profissional que se utiliza de conhecimentos técnicos e específicos na análise dos vestígios de um crime, a fim de descobrir a forma como este se deu e, também, sua autoria. O trabalho pericial pode contribuir com a absolvição ou a condenação de um acusado e, assim, atender aos anseios de justiça da sociedade. Apesar da importância dessa atividade, os métodos e instrumentos de trabalho disponíveis para os peritos pouco evoluíram desde a criação da carreira no estado de Minas Gerais, que convivem, ainda, com locais de trabalho inadequados e, também, com a escassez de recursos materiais e humanos, somados à carência de comunicação e de autonomia na tomada de decisões das chefias; os resultados também apontaram para a interferência de outros agentes públicos, no local do crime, antes do início do trabalho pericial e, ainda, que a comunicação ineficiente traz problemas às relações interpessoais no trabalho. A nova gestão pública determinou metas que devem ser cumpridas, pressionando o profissional a otimizar os resultados do trabalho, sem ter, em contrapartida, melhorias nas suas condições. Além do exposto, o contato direto e frequente com vítimas de violência, ou com o material a elas relacionado, possibilita impacto negativo sobre as emoções do perito criminal, na falta de apoio especializado para lidar com tais situações. Esse contexto alerta para a necessidade da preservação da integridade emocional do perito criminal e, também, para emprego de estímulo à motivação da categoria. A fim de compreender as condições emocionais do perito criminal de Minas Gerais, de como impactam sua qualidade da vida e de trabalho, foi utilizado o método qualitativo de pesquisa, iniciando-se com uma etapa de pesquisa exploratória, na qual vinte e dois profissionais responderam a um questionário semiestruturado. Posteriormente, duzentos e quarenta e oito peritos criminais responderam a questionários semiestruturados; conversas e entrevistas semiabertas foram gravadas com outros dez peritos aposentados ou aguardando a publicação oficial da aposentadoria. As questões foram descritivas, aproximando-se da atitude fenomenológica, buscando compreensão, quando, diante de depoimentos e questionários, a análise de conteúdo e do discurso desempenharam o papel de apoio metodológico. Os sentimentos recorrentes entre os peritos são os negativos, relacionados a medo, apreensão, humilhação, frustração, injustiça, angústia e revolta. Porém, sentimentos positivos também apareceram, esses relacionados à esperança de melhoria de condições laborais, ao entendimento da necessidade da cooperação e da confiança nos pares e, também, do empenho na contribuição social. As conclusões indicam que é necessário a promoção sistemática da comunicação interna e externa, além da intensificação da interação e da cooperação, a fim de favorecer a liderança e o reconhecimento do trabalho pericial, apoiando o envolvimento do profissional com a carreira. A complexidade encontrada nas questões relacionais apreendidas, e os indícios de implicações com a problemática da autonomia na Perícia Criminal, sugere retomada investigativa futura.

A violência no contexto de um serviço de urgência: análise do processo de cuidar na visão das vítimas e profissionais de saúde em Natal/RN

Exploratory descriptive study, with a quantitative approach and prospective data, performed in Pronto Socorro Clóvis Sarinho (PSCS), in Natal/RN, aiming to analyze care given by the nursing and medical staff to victims of violence attended to in an emergency hospital in Natal/RN; to identify care given by the nursing and medical staff as viewed by the victims; to compare data observed during the process of care with the victim s view on the care given by the nursing and medical staff; to identify the existing knowledge on violence and the process of caring for victims and its relation with prejudice; to identify obstacles and perspectives for prevention during the process of caring for victims in the emergency services. The population consisted of 97 physicians, 16 nurses, 75 nursing technicians and assistants and 365 victims of violence, with data collected from April to May 2009. Out of 188 professionals, 52.1% are female; 32% were aged 41 to 50; 99.5% had given care to a victim of violence; 90.4% reported to have given care to patients under custody; among these, 17.3% felt prejudice; 55.3% stated they don t provide different care for assaulted victims and assailants, however 44.7% stated they do; 86.7% feel their workplace is unsafe; 61.7% denied the existence of any obstacle and 38.3% reported the existence of obstacles; among these, 26.1% referred to inadequate facilities; 37.8% believe reinforcing security and professional training are the main solutions.

The results show that 68 of the 121 participants (56.20%) were female and 53 (43.80%) were male, 38 (31.40%) were between 40 and 49, 85 (70.2%) lived in the south of Natal (RN), 46 (38.02%) specialization, 68 (56.20%) were Catholic, 63 (52.07%) married, 41 (33.88%) received between 03 and 05 and 68 minimum wages (56.20%) were teachers, 51 (42.15%) 02 employees (01,65%) and directors, 46 (38.02%) providers had between 05 and 14 years and 11 months experience in teaching 70 (57.85%) less than five years in the job, 68 (56.20%) worked between 20 hours and 40 hours per week, 81 (16.30%) worked in the 9th grade of elementary school II. As for the sizing of violence, 111 (91.74%) respondents witnessed episodes of this event who work in the institution, 100 (82.64%) witnessed verbal violence, 87 (71.90%) called for parents when some event happenedviolent that it caused injury to students, 66 (54.55%) believed that family violence is the main reason for young people practiced bullying, 44 (38.98%) reported daily episodes of bullying, 64 (52.89% ) the event happens in the courtyard. Of the 37 victims of violence at school, 22 (59.45%) suffered verbal abuse, 18 (48.65%) experienced violence once a week, 36 (97.30%) were attacked by students, 104 (85.95 %) are able to differentiate the bad acts of bullying behavior, 28 (23.14%) separated the involved coordination and communicated verbally, 23 (19.00%) stated that the coordination of schools talked with parents about the aggressive behavior of the student. Regarding the actions taken to minimize bullying, 69 (57.02%) participated in any professional education process, 47 (38.84%) was the educational process at another institution, 49 (71.01%) took courses lasting 12 to 24 hours, 59 (48.76%) stated that interaction with parents and family was the most stimulated by the school to try to minimize and prevent the event and 116 (95.87%) participated in meetings at the institutions surveyed , 58 (50.00%) responded that the meetings took place every two months and 121 (100.00%) reported having no refresher course on school violence in the schools surveyed. We conclude that violence in schools has been expressed in any social class and that professionals are poorly prepared to deal with the situation. So we hope that education professionals through the reading of our study may realize that school violence takes place in any institution affecting the lives of all who make up the educational universe. It is extremely important that these professionals always seek to empower through knowledge so that they can develop strategies to prevent and minimize the bullying to change the reality of the workplace

Entre o sol e a liberdade impera a violência: formação de redes para a ação a partir da estratégia saúde da família

The research aimed to analyze the feasibility of forming a network of municipal services to prevent and treat child victims of violence from the Basic Health Units in the Family Mossoró / RN. The research is a qualitative approach and was developed in the form of action research. The population was composed of representatives of institutions of the child and primary care professionals. Data were collected through questionnaires, workshops and semi-structured interview. The results were analyzed from data collected through the questionnaire designed to assess the material, lectures, dialogues and assessments with the team and presented in accordance with the findings of the research. The study was approved by the Ethics in Research UFRN with protocol No. 158/2010, CAAE: 0176.0.051.000-10.

Mind the need to change strategies to work to combat violence, we plan to conduct focus group workshop to complete the questionnaire, training for protection against occupational violence, and meeting with other bodies responsible visor protecting children and adolescents to draw the flowchart of the victims in safety net. The next moment training to fill the notification form professionals were interested in learning and use this tool to combat violence. At the third meeting in Unity, meeting with representatives of the Child Protection Council, the professional unit showed interest in interacting with the agency to expose and combat violence against children and adolescents. Due to difficulties in the physical structure of the unit was not possible to continue the research and planned every moment, and then completed the data collection with interviews with the participating professionals, to assess the meetings. Therefore, it is considered that action research has also achieved its goals because the team was involved in the collective construction of a proposed change in the practices of referral and prevention of violence against children and adolescents. This involvement was favored using the principles Freirian during the course of the study. However, it is assumed that the network was not fully implemented because it is known that it is in a continual process of improvement and must continue evolving with the unit team.

Mulheres e educação: um estudo sobre o grupo de mulheres brasileiras (GMB) do Bairro do Benguí - Belém - Pará

O trabalho apresenta a pesquisa realizada no período de 2009-2010, que teve o propósito de estudar o Grupo de Mulheres Brasileiras (GMB), buscando verificar a atuação deste como executor de práticas educativas para além das formalidades institucionais. O objetivo geral de pesquisa foi investigar como vem se processando as práticas educativas voltadas às linhas de ação (saúde da mulher, combate à violência, trabalho e renda) desenvolvidas pelo grupo, os objetivos específicos foram: identificar quais os fatores que levaram as mulheres que integram o grupo a escolherem as três linhas de ação para serem desenvolvidas; verificar se houve reflexos positivos ou negativos no bairro do Benguí após a criação do mesmo; conhecer os motivos que levaram mulheres do bairro a integrarem o grupo; analisar o processo educativo que envolve as práticas do grupo. Nosso problema de pesquisa se baseou na seguinte questão: De que forma se constituem as práticas educativas de ações de saúde da mulher, combate à violência, trabalho e renda desenvolvidas no GMB? A metodologia utilizada foi predominantemente de abordagem qualitativa. Realizamos uma pesquisa de campo e documental. Utilizamos observações não-participantes e aplicação de entrevistas semi-estruturadas com um roteiro pré-estabelecido. Utilizamos a estratégia chamada estudo. O recorte temporal da pesquisa foi o período de 2008-2010, que compreende o mandato da atual coordenadora do grupo, com término previsto para setembro de 2011. As análises revelaram que as práticas educativas voltadas às três linhas de ação estão sendo desenvolvidas por meio de palestras, campanhas, atos públicos, seminários, encontros, distribuição de cartilhas, cursos e oficinas de capacitação, orientação as mulheres vítimas de violência, etc. As opiniões das entrevistadas foram unânimes no que diz respeito “ao caráter educativo das ações desenvolvidas pelo grupo”. Elas afirmam que as atividades visam à formação de sujeitos, a capacitação para o mercado de trabalho, possibilita às pessoas o conhecimento dos seus direitos e deveres na sociedade, as oficinas e cursos ajudam a gerar trabalho e renda, etc. A falta de recursos financeiros é uma questão também apontada por todas as entrevistadas, pois relatam que precisam de apoio financeiro para realizar as ações, o grupo arrecada recursos por meio da elaboração de projetos que são enviados a várias instituições, e que, quando algum projeto é aprovado, o dinheiro é aplicado na oferta de cursos, oficinas, campanhas, entre outros. Deve-se destacar que, além da ação positiva na luta contra o preconceito imposto às mulheres, o GMB atua de forma compensatória no desenvolvimento de políticas que o Estado não dá conta de realizar. Assim, o processo educativo se materializa no cotidiano dos cursos e oficinas; mas, sobretudo no desenvolvimento cotidiano das práticas culturais, sociais e políticas.

Lei Maria da Penha: avaliação dos seis anos de implantação em Belém/PA

Este estudo constitui a dissertação apresentada no Curso de Mestrado em Serviço Social da UFPA, cujo tema “Lei Maria da Penha: Avaliação dos 06 anos de Implantação em Belém/PA”, analisa a discussão e avaliação da aplicabilidade da Lei nº 11.340/06 (Maria da Penha) para o combate à violência doméstica e familiar no município de Belém/PA. Objetiva também aprofundar o conhecimento sobre a temática da mulher e das relações de gênero. Com essa finalidade, o trabalho foi realizado mediante pesquisa bibliográfica, com a utilização de materiais já publicados como: artigos, livros e os materiais disponíveis na internet e pesquisa exploratória, visando a uma apreensão do problema para melhor compreendê-lo e explicitá-lo. Os instrumentais de coleta de dados foram aplicados junto aos sujeitos sociais envolvidos na problemática, a fim de superar a aparência do fenômeno e apreender a dinamicidade de sua estrutura de forma universal, particular e singular. Considera-se importante pontuar que os seis anos de aplicabilidade da Lei “Maria da Penha” em Belém ainda não surtiu resultados efetivamente satisfatórios, em decorrência da falta de equipamentos públicos destinados ao atendimento desse tipo de violência, pois existe apenas 01 (uma) Delegacia da Mulher e 03 (três) varas de violência doméstica e familiar contra a mulher na capital do Estado e a carência de recursos, financeiros, materiais e pessoais, configurando um quadro ainda deficitário para a implementação integral da Lei. Dessa maneira, embora a Lei tenha proporcionado a possibilidade de proteção e justiça, essa situação ainda não se concretizou de fato em Belém do Pará. Porém, não se pode desconsiderar a importância dessa Lei e as mudanças propostas por ela, com o objetivo de universalizar o acesso à justiça por contingentes da população historicamente excluídos de direitos e principalmente o mérito do reconhecimento da violência doméstica e familiar contra a mulher, em suas diferentes modalidades, como problema público e social, passível de inferência das forças do Estado. Logo, existe uma legislação nacional capaz de reduzir a incidência desse fenômeno, se aplicada de modo consistente e efetivo, com o fortalecimento e ampliação da rede de proteção à mulher vítima de violência, pois o problema é complexo e envolve medidas judiciais, administrativas, legislativas, econômicas, sociais e culturais, sem as quais ficaria inviável realizar um atendimento global ao problema. A Lei n.º 11.340/06 ainda se encontra em fase de experimentação e certamente deverá sofrer vários ajustes, porém é preciso manter o texto em sua integralidade por tempo suficiente para medir o seu impacto, evitando alterações precipitadas que possam desfigurar ou até anular a referida Lei.
