De lugar segregado ao lugar espiritual da Teologia da Libertação: Diocese de Nova Iguaçu de 1970 a 1990

Esta pesquisa tem como objetivo entendermos os processos históricos e geográficos pelo qual a dimensão espacial da Igreja Católica no atual município de Nova Iguaçu, na Baixada Fluminense, foi estruturada, assim como interpretar as ações desenvolvidas pela Igreja Católica mostrando o seu papel de gestor no desenvolvimento de várias ações sociais e religiosas. Nesta localidade, carente de políticas públicas favoreceu inicialmente nas comunidades eclesiais de base a construção de importantes espaços religiosos, assim como, posteriormente foram desenvolvidos movimentos populares que auxiliaram na sociabilidade e trocas de saberes e fazeres. As ações conduzidas pela Teologia da Libertação e dirigidas pela Diocese de Nova Iguaçu e pelo líder religioso Dom Adriano Hypólito possibilitou a expansão da conscientização da população em relação a seus direitos e deveres expressos principalmente nas inúmeras reivindicações por serviços públicos e sociais. Busca-se então, o entendimento na estruturação social de algumas áreas da Baixada Fluminense assim como desvendar as estratégias utilizadas pela Diocese de Nova Iguaçu durante a fim de promover a organização de seu território religioso, através da disseminação de suas estratégias religiosas. Tais ações auxiliaram no fortalecimento das ações coletivas da localidade, marcando a história do município de Nova Iguaçu e da instituição religiosa católica brasileira.

A gestão pública do Sistema Único de Assistência Social (SUAS) no município de Niterói/RJ: os Centros de Referência da Assistência Social (CRAS) no foco crítico

O presente trabalho insere-se no campo da Política de Assistência Social. Tem como objeto de estudo a concepção de Política de Assistência Social que embasa o processo de implementação da gestão do SUAS no município de Niterói e os fundamentos teóricos e conceituais da gestão pública do SUAS em tal localidade, tendo como recorte a execução dos serviços de proteção básica nos CRAS. O objetivo da tese é analisar a concepção de Assistência Social que orienta a gestão do SUAS em Niterói e, articuladamente a tal discussão, os fundamentos conceituais que pautam a gestão pública do SUAS, no que diz respeito às atividades de proteção social básica nos CRAS. Utilizou-se como instrumento para a realização deste trabalho a pesquisa bibliográfica, sendo que a discussão teórica abordou, primeiramente, as diferentes orientações da gestão pública no Brasil, vinculando-a com a intervenção do Estado no desenvolvimento do capitalismo brasileiro. O trabalho também apresenta o debate sobre a concepção da Política de Assistência Social, compreendendo que esta se reflete na condução da gestão pública do SUAS. Demonstrou-se as tendências da Assistência Social na contemporaneidade, que se vinculam no enfrentamento da pobreza (extrema) através de sua intervenção nos programas/ações de transferência de renda. Destacou-se a influência da gestão gerencial nos processos de gestão do SUAS. Para a análise da gestão do SUAS no município de Niterói, desenvolveu-se uma pesquisa qualitativa, através de pesquisa documental nas Atas do Conselho Municipal de Assistência Social CMAS de Niterói; nos Relatórios de Gestão da Secretaria Municipal de Assistência Social; nos documentos sobre o cofinanciamento para o SUAS no município; no Censo SUAS 2014 de Niterói, na área da gestão e dos CRAS; no Plano Brasil Sem Miséria no seu Município-Niterói; no Plano Municipal de Assistência Social 2014-2017. Também aplicou-se questionário, com questões abertas e fechadas, nos 8 CRAS de Niterói no ano de 2013. Verificou-se a relevância que ocupam, no município, as ações do Programa Bolsa Família, de cadastramento, de atendimentos, de acompanhamento familiar, em detrimento da constituição das ações coletivas dos serviços socioassistenciais. Tais características se articulam à totalidade histórica maior das tendências da Assistência Social e da intervenção do Estado brasileiro, que privilegia políticas sociais focalizadas e não universais em sua atuação em prol do capital financeiro. Constatou-se a apropriação dos elementos da gestão gerencial pelo órgão gestor municipal, no processo de implementação do SUAS no município, principalmente com relação ao cumprimento de resultados e metas pelos CRAS, e a subvalorização dos determinantes políticos da gestão pública, dificultando a constituição de uma perspectiva mais democrática de gestão no âmbito do SUAS em Niterói.

A Educação em Direitos Humanos através da discussão e ação sociopolítica sobre controvérsias sociocientíficas e socioambientais

A sociedade atual, marcada por dilemas morais e políticos suscitados pelo crescimento científico e tecnológico, só será verdadeiramente democrática quando as decisões sobre as opções científicas e tecnológicas deixarem de ser entendidas como responsabilidade exclusiva de especialistas, de governos nacionais ou instâncias internacionais. A ignorância e o medo da ciência e da tecnologia podem escravizar os cidadãos na servidão do século XXI, tornando-os estranhos na sua própria sociedade e completamente dependentes da opinião de especialistas (Prewitt, 1983). Torna-se vital a passagem progressiva do conceito de cidadão passivo, governado por uma elite iluminada, para um conceito de cidadão ativo predisposto e apto a participar em processos de decisão sobre as opções de desenvolvimento que lhe são apresentadas. É neste contexto que surge o projeto “We Act”, focado na capacitação de professores e alunos para a realização de ações coletivas sobre controvérsias sociocientíficas e socioambientais (Reis, 2014a,b). Perante a gravidade das problemáticas que afetam o mundo atual, considera-se que não basta envolver os alunos na identificação e na discussão destas questões, tornando-se indispensável capacitá-los para ações coletivas fundamentadas que possam contribuir para a resolução desses problemas. Esta capacitação passa pelo desenvolvimento de competências de cidadania ativa e de consciência e eficácia políticas. Torna-se necessário que tanto professores como alunos (independentemente da sua idade) se sintam com o direito e a capacidade (o poder) de intervenção social. Com este projeto, pretende-se contrariar práticas de educação em ciência que promovem a conformidade relativamente ao conhecimento autorizado e ao discurso científico e encorajam os alunos a procurarem a aprovação de uma autoridade legitimada para validar as suas ações, em vez de os implicarem em discurso e ação críticos e democráticos (Désautels e Larochelle, 2003; Roth e Lee, 2002). Para tal, o projeto “We Act” baseia-se nos pilares da investigação, da discussão e da ação.

Evaluation of effectiveness of the project ‘Caring caregivers of persons in disability situation’. Bogotá - second semester of 2007

The present paper presents the results of a transversal descriptive study which intended to estimate the contribution of the project “Caring for those who take care of people with disabilities” in the areas of: strength of personal and group competences, self care, life project, dexterity in the care process of people with disabilities, and communitarian auto management; that was implemented in 20 urban areas with caregivers of the city of Bogota in the year 2007. The study allowed the nresearches to acknowledge the little change perception that caregivers had in terms of self care, however, the caregivers perceived change in the four areas, although this were not statistically significant in comparison with the general population. There were only significant changes in the communitarian auto management area in 30% of the population. As a result, it is proposed that more extensive, continuous, and sustainable processes are implemented and that this process arises from contention spaces which can be created with the caregivers, from which they can be motivated to participate in other ´processes of collective and individual changes. Also there’s a need to rely on facilitators (professionals and change agents) who have stronger competences on the how to be and the how to interact competences, because there’s a need to manage the psychosocial components in this group of people. Also, we must make organizational processes and the social networks stronger, this is: collective actions are required, because disability is a social fact, and so, the individual issues are just a moment in the process of inclusion of the person with disability, his family and caregiver.

Renovação e gestão de idades: experiências participativas no centro histórico de São Paulo

A questão dos centros metropolitanos ganha importância cada vez maior para as nações nesta virada de milênio. Os projetos de revalorização das áreas centrais das cidades transformaram-se em uma das funções básicas dos governos, pelo consenso de que a reorganização espacial está intimamente relacionada aos sistemas de produção econômico-político-sociais da atualidade. Desse modo, as cidades representariam possíveis plataformas de desenvolvimento econômico e promoção da inclusão social mediante a geração de empregos e de renda. Essa abordagem sugere uma reflexão sobre o dilema do desenvolvimento urbano x inclusão social, enorme desafio diante das tendências excludentes, cada vez mais acentuadas, em especial nos países emergentes. A integração entre as esferas pública e privada em experiências participativas é outra questão a avaliar, principalmente em sociedades com processos democráticos ainda não totalmente consolidados. O presente estudo tem por objetivo analisar as experiências participativas de renovação e de gestão do Centro Histórico de São Paulo por meio dos projetos estratégicos, seus desdobramentos e resultados, sob a ótica das organizações contemporâneas, com destaque para as ações coletivas e o exercício da cidadania. A importância que assumiram as metrópoles – que atraem um contingente humano sempre maior e, em sua esteira, os dilemas da atualidade – justifica a oportunidade do estudo proposto.

Twitter e ciberativismo: o movimento social da hashtag #ForaMicarla em Natal-RN

The spatial and temporal fluidity conditioned by the technologies of social interaction online have been allowing that collective actions of protest and activism arise every day in cyberspace - the cyber-activism. If before these actions were located in geographical boundaries, today's demands and mobilizations extrapolate the location, connect to the global, and at the same time, return to the regional through digital virtuality. Within this context of the relationship between digital technology and global flow of sociability, emerges in October 2010 the social movement of the hashtag "#ForaMicarla", which means the dissatisfaction of cibernauts from Natal of Twitter with the current management of the municipality of Natal-RN, Micarla de Sousa (Green Party). We can find in the center of this movement and others who appeared in the world at the same time a technological condition of Twitter, with the hashtag "#". Given this scenario, this research seeks to analyze how the relationship of the agents of movement hashtag "ForaMicarla", based on the principle that it was formed in the Twitter network and is maintained on the platform on a daily basis, it can create a new kind of political culture. Thus, this study discusses theoretically the importance of Twitter and movements that emerge on the platform and through it to understand the social and political demands of the contemporary world and this public sphere, which now seems to include cyberspace

A corretagem de imóveis no Rio Grande do Norte: das práticas históricas à emergência como segmento integrante da fração imobiliária do capital

This research proposed to question the development of what was defined as historical practices (commercial, social and political institutions), of the economic activity of the real estate brokerage in the Rio Grande do Norte from the progressive institutionalization of economic agents - individuals (realtors) and legal (real estate) - based on two main approaches: a) the development of economic activity as an integral segment of a fraction of capital (POULANTZAs, 1985; LESSA, 1981). This work set out from a socio-historical approach of the historical practices development the of real estate brokerage in Brazil started in the Southeast, especially in the cities of Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo as a result of the "expansion of capitalist relations by the housing sector" (RIBEIRO , 1996). especially the real estate capital ; b) the historical development of relations between labor and capital within the activity, in other words, the development of the relationship between realtors and Real Estate in relation to "group of interests" and their "collective actions" (OFFE, 1984). These historical practices are defined in this research as: 1) mercantile practices, times when there was no distinction between the activity of real estate brokerage and other forms of mercantile capital; 2) social practices, which began in the 1930s, when agents of real estate are to be distinguished from each other within the activity through Taylorist division of labor between workers realtors and developers of real estate; 3) political and institutional practices, initiated in 1962, characterized by State action, in the individualization and distinction of the agents of real estate brokerage as socioprofessional category regulated throughout Brazil by Law 4.116/62 and 6.530/78. The results achieved by the present study showed that in Rio Grande do Norte, due to the specifics as to the peripheral processes of urbanization of the constitution of the land market, as well as the process of conservative modernization of the oligarchic State from the 1960s (CLEMENTINE, 1995; FERREIRA, 1996, 2010, TRINDADE, 2004), the State was led to the development of a late manifestation of the historical practices of real estate brokerage. In other words, it was a process in which historical practices, in particular social practices, not fully developed, mitigating, thus the perception of realtors from his position in the process of exploitation of labor by the Real Estate. And, as a result, of their collective interests front of them.

O sindicato como espaço de construção da profissão docente

This work examines the connection Syndicate/teachers profession trying to unveil the important role taken over by the Syndical movement in the process of professionalization of the militant teachers. For that, it describes and analyses the historical course of three Syndicates representatives of the teachers category Associação dos Professores Licenciados da Bahia APLB; Sindicato dos Trabalhadores em Educação de Pernambuco SINTEPE; Sindicato dos Servidores Municipais de Petrolina SINDSEMP acting in the micro-region of the San Francisco Valley, especially, in the municipalities of Juazeiro Bahia , and of Petrolina Pernambuco. It concentrates its interests on the contribution of the Syndicates for the professional development of these teachers in this region analysing the aspects related to emerging conflicts into the Syndical organization, to the attitude of these entities before the educational reality to their reinvindicative struggles to the formative dimension of the group actions. This study tries to answer the following questions: How has this syndical movement of teachers of state school of S. Francisco Valley been characterized? How do their actions reflect in the formation and professionalization of the teachers? Do teachers recognize the syndicate as a constructive space for the teaching profession? The methodological trajectory was directed through a qualitative approach of an etnomethodological character, using instruments for the understanding of this reality, The treatment of the data was based on the interpretative analysis of the speeches present in documents and through answers of the interviwees, having as a reference in this analysis the theoretical studies about syndicalism and the teacher professionalization. For a conceptual construction of this work it was studied these two categories from their genesis, from the social historical evolution of their concepts and the up to date discussions that give explanations about the teachers syndical movement and about the process of teachers professionalization. As thesis of this study it was defended the idea of that the teachers syndicates have contributed expressively in the process of the construction of the teacher profession of the militant teachers of this in the micro-region of the S. Francisco Valley. Once the teachers participate actively in this movement promoted by the syndical entities, the teachers develop the critical sense of the educational realty; improve their formation and reinvindicate from the State this condition as a Right; fight for better conditions in the work; reinvindicate the salary valuation and, try to construct an image of teacher basing on a professional model. The contribution of the Syndicate in the process of teachers profissionalization, is more evident in its external dimension that chacterizes the profissionalism, on the related aspects: to the forms of participation in the definition and the management of the educational politics; to the political struggles for the achievements of the professional status, to the recognition and of his eventual valuation. The syndical actions have repercussions with less intensity in the inside dimension that defines the profissionality, in the related aspects: to the administratation of the pedagogical processes in schools and in the classroom; to the acquisition of branches of knowledges; to the epistemological criticism of the acquirements mobilized in the teaching; the curricular question to the mediation that make possible the learning at school and in the classroom

Diálogos e aprendizagens na formação em agronomia para assentados

This thesis aims to investigate the Agronomy course in the perspective of the graduation course for the settlers of the Universidade Federal do Pará- Marabá. This course requires a partnership with the social movements of the North region of the country, with the purpose to understand knowledge production and how learning process occurs from the point of interaction and reliable relationships which are established in the organization during the course. The base of theses studies is to reflect of how the dialogue and learning processes occurred during the Agronomy course and resulted in changing in the teachers behavior and in the other integrated members of the group and mainly in the graduating settlers students. These changings happens as a consenquence of the dialogue production between the most varied areas, different people and institutions which take collective decisions. I observe educational actions, researches, extention concepts of extension and also development researches presented in the educative actions discussed by Freire (1985), Simões (2001, 2003) e de Amartya Sen (2000). The theory in which I am basing these studies are based in Boaventura de Souza Santos Simões (2001, 2003) and Amartya Sen (2000). Methodologically I analyse knowledge production by sudying the thesis and scientific works related to rural education, social movements, university and higher education in the last 20 years. I analyze the scientific works of all settler students, and besides, I do open interviews with the students, as well as, with the teachers and the leaders of social movements (MST, FETAGRI, CPT, EFA/FATA). I organize and analyze all the speeches from the ecological knowledge as defined by Boaventura de Souza Santos (2006). Finally, I visit five towns of municipal districts of the southeast of Pará, which represents the final methodological part of the research, in order to verify in loco the practices of the experiments purposed as final activity of the Agronomy course. I organize the work in five areas composed by the occupational process and the initiatives which emerged from them; development model and the social and environmental consequences; I also organize the university role and the relationship established between people and institutions which gave origin to the Agronomy course of UFPA and the programs developed in the region; conjuncture of creation of the groups of settled students, curriculum, principles and focus on the course and the experienced actions; developed practices in the course and the relations of reliability experienced internally and externally to the Academy, the learning and dialogue promoted by the course. I believe that the dialogue has caused changes in the organization of the knowledge and in the educative practices of the teachers, as well as, in the socio-productive practices of the regressed settled students
