Tramas femininas na Belle Époque Carioca: entre anarquistas e espíritas

Investiga-se, neste trabalho, a partir de uma análise de gênero, os discursos dos movimentos espírita e anarquista acerca das mulheres, no período de 1889 a 1922, no Rio de Janeiro, especificamente no que se refere a uma possível relação entre eles. No período de análise, ambos os movimentos encontravam-se em constituição no Brasil, lutando por legitimação e reconhecimento social, sendo seus seguidores perseguidos, presos e patologizados por seus discursos questionadores da ordem vigente. Entretanto, mais que seu sucesso ou não na transformação social, o que aqui se propõe é uma investigação acerca das formas pelas quais esses movimentos podem ter se relacionado e seus discursos, especialmente no caso da mulher, podem tê-los aproximado. Ou seja, questionar a oposição religião e política, e inserir uma análise de gênero em campos nos quais essa ferramenta é, ainda, raramente utilizada. Investigar como se apresentavam as questões de gênero nas práticas desses movimentos, tentando resgatar os fios que compõem a trama histórica dos mesmos, procurando entender a legitimação do espiritismo brasileiro no circuito religioso e a desqualificação do anarquismo no circuito dos movimentos políticos. As razões que justificam a escolha do espiritismo e do anarquismo para este trabalho devem-se, sobretudo, a uma singularidade: ambos apresentavam discursos sobre a mulher destoantes dos hegemônicos. Em seus pressupostos, encontra-se uma postura diferenciada em relação à mulher, na qual a ideia da igualdade entre os sexos assume um papel relevante, não seguindo a tendência de atribuir às mulheres um lugar de submissão e silêncio. Espíritas e anarquistas se posicionaram contrários aos discursos que tentavam manter a legitimidade da submissão da mulher ao homem. Contudo, verifica-se que, no Brasil, tanto o espiritismo quanto o anarquismo construíram discursos próprios ao contexto brasileiro, indo ao encontro dos pressupostos hegemônicos naquele período, sobretudo, acerca da mulher e das relações de gênero. Através de uma análise da história dos movimentos espírita e anarquista, notadamente, de sua chegada e difusão no campo social brasileiro, constata-se que a historiografia produziu um discurso que legitimou a exclusão das mulheres desses movimentos naquele momento, produzindo uma trama ainda bastante marcada pelo silenciamento das práticas femininas. A perspectiva teórico-metodológica deste trabalho se insere no campo da historiografia, mais especificamente da nova história: história cultural, história das mulheres e das relações de gênero, com atenção às produções da historiografia contemporânea sobre o período e as implicações de suas análises para as conclusões difundidas sobre a ausência feminina nesses movimentos.

Ying Chen and the ‘‘Non-Lieu’’

The French-language prose works of Ying Chen re-examine the idea of absolute cultural cores of being and belonging which has traditionally been associated with Chinese overseas literature. Her concept of identity, constantly in the process of becoming, can be understood through the various ways in which her own, and her characters', ‘between-world’ consciousness is expressed, namely through the portrayal of migration, the metaphors of shores and bridges, the themes of attachment and detachment, and the discussion of physical displacement and inner exile. The author's theories on literary language, too, focus on in-between spaces, such as that between the real and the probable.

NEC Contracting: Evaluation of the Inclusion of Dispute Review Boards in lieu of Adjudication in the Construction Industry in the United Kinddom

The construction industry is renowned for spending vast sums in the resolution of disputes, but never in the prevention. The purpose of this paper is to analyse the New Engineering Contract (NEC) to determine whether or not adjudication has become misaligned with the contract’s objective of promoting effective management. In doing so, the paper examines dispute review boards in order to ascertain if they could be a viable alternative to adjudication. A sequential mixed methodology is adopted including a detailed literature review, eight semi-structured interviews, culminating in the circulation and analysis of a questionnaire, to record the significance of the factors identified. The research concludes that the majority of individuals agree that dispute review boards would be more aligned with the NEC. The familiarity of members, the potential to curb rogue behaviour of parties and the proactive nature of the board are flagged as positive features, however the cost aspect requires further investigation. The reservations made in the study about adjudication, such as the priority given to speed over accuracy and also the adversarial nature of the process, suggest that a preventative step prior to proceeding to adjudication would coincide more with the three core themes of the NEC Contract and therefore, be a positive addition.

Les pronoms relatifs: variation historique? Usage des pronoms relatifs en français à l’époque de la Nouvelle-France

Ce travail consiste à décrire l’usage des pronoms relatifs dans le français de trois scripteurs de l’époque de la Nouvelle-France afin de vérifier si la variation existante en français moderne y était également présente. Pour ce faire, une description de la norme des pronoms relatifs en français moderne et historique a été élaborée, et une étude de corpus (corpus MCVF annoté syntaxiquement, Martineau et coll., 2005-2010) comprenant des textes de scripteurs français et canadiens (François Gendron, Marie-Andrée Regnard Duplessis et Marie Morin) a été réalisée. L’analyse de 2521 occurrences a révélé que la variation présente en français moderne existait déjà à l’époque et y était même un peu plus importante, que l’usage des scripteurs est conforme aux attestations et descriptions présentes dans les documents historiques et de l’époque, et que les systèmes moderne et historique (XVIIe et XVIIIe siècles) des pronoms relatifs sont similaires.

Structure du temps de travail des infirmières de santé publique: effets de l'âge des patients, de la nature des prestations fournies et du lieu du contact. [Structure of work times of public health nurses: effect of the age of patients, nature of care given and location of contact].

In the framework of health services research sponsored by the Swiss National Science Foundation, a research was undertaken of the activity of the large majority of the public health nurses working in the Swiss cantons of Vaud and Fribourg (total population 700,000). During one week, 130 nurses gathered, with a specially devised instrument, data on 4165 patient visits. Studying the duration of the contacts, one has distinguished contact duration per se (DC), duration of the travel time preceding the contact (DD), and total duration in relation with the contact (DTC-addition of the first two). It was noted that the three durations increased significantly with patient age (as regard travel time, this is explained by the higher proportion of home visits in higher age groups, as compared with visits at a health center). Examined according to location of the visit, contact duration per se (without travel) is higher for visits at home and in nursing homes than for those taking place at a health center. Looked at in respect to the care given (technical care, or basic nursing care, or both simultaneously), our data show that the provision of basic nursing care (alone or with technical care) doubles contact duration (from 20 to 42-45'). The analyses according to patient age shows that, at an advanced age (beyond 80 years particularly), there is an important increase of the visits where both types of care are given. However, contact duration per se shows a significant raise with age only for the group "technical care only"; it can be demonstrated that this is due to the fact that older patients require more complex technical acts (e.g., bladder care, as compared with simpler acts such as injection). A model of the relationships between patient age and contact duration is proposed: it is because of the increase in the proportions of home visits, of visits including basic nursing care, and of more complex technical acts that older persons require more of the working time of public health nurses.

Le genou peut-il représenter un problème sur le lieu de travail ?

Résumé Avec 8% des accidents en Suisse, le genou est une articulation fréquemment blessée. Si la majorité des traumatismes surviennent lors de la pratique du sport, les conséquences sur la reprise de l'activite professionnelle sont relativement méconnues. Pourtant, en 2002, un quart des patients hospitalises dans le service de rééducation de l'appareil locomoteur de la CRR, présentait une lésion du genou responsable d'une limitation fonctionnelle significative. Les diagnostics principaux sont les entorses graves et les lésions dégénératives. Une majorité de patients est issue du secteur secondaire et exerce souvent une profession exigeante d'un point de vue physique. Le but de cet article est d'une part de présenter aux praticiens des repères utiles à la compréhension de cette problématique particulière; d'autre part d'initier une reflexion pratique sur la réadaptation professionnelle de ces patients, par la discussion d'un cas clinique. From approximately 8% of the accidents in Switzerland, the knee is a frequently wounded articulation. If the majority of the traumas occur whilst playing sport, the effects on the resumption of professional activity are relatively ignored. However, in 2002, a quarter of the patients hospitalized in the locomotor service of rehabilitation at the CRR, presented a lesion of the knee as factor most commonly responsible for their functional limitations. The principal diagnoses consisted of serious distorsions and degenerative lesions. A majority of patients come from industry which, from a physical point of view, is generally a demanding occupation. The goals of this article are to present information concerning the comprehension of these particular problems as well as to initiate practises for the vocational rehabilitation of these patients, by the discussion of a clinical case.

Le corps, lieu de l'expérience des limites? Réflexions à partir de la littérature chrétienne antique (Ascension d'Esaïe 6 et Recconnaissances II,61-66, en écho à 2 Co 12,1-11)

(Résumé de l'ouvrage) Dans cet ouvrage réunissant théologiens et philosophes, le corps contemporain est pensé par rapport à ce qui l'excède, ce qui le met en scène, ce qui le reprend, ce qui le transforme aujourd'hui. Dans une première partie, l'ouvrage propose des éclairages sur le corps à partir de ce qui met en question sa vision strictement rationnelle. Puis, trois auteurs évoquent les différentes manières dont la Bible, la philosophie et la littérature contemporaine mettent en scène les corps. Dans une troisième partie, sont abordées des questions plus spécifiquement reliées à la tradition catholique, au christianisme primitif et à la pratique de l'ascèse. Enfin, quatre contributions explorent le défi posé par la déréalisation du corps dans nos sociétés d'aujourd'hui, avec, pour clore l'ensemble, une réflexion sur le dualisme qui traverse le questionnement sur le corps.
