Poder soberano e biopolítica no combate às drogas no Brasil

In the last two or three decades has become common the debate on the harmful effects produced by trade and use of illicit substances in Brazil. The "drug problem" as it became known worldwide in official and media discourses, has become, if not the only, at least the most important determinant of a series of social ills that affect both the rich countries (classified as consumers), and the poor countries (the producers and exporters of these "evil substances"). This situation that today is extremely pernicious, may be better understood through some elements of the story of its constitution. In this sense, we draw a succinct history of drug prohibition worldwide and we use the Foucauldian concept of biopower and the concept of “death policy” designed by André Saldanha Costa to comment briefly on the "drug problem" in Brazil. In this initial approach, we can affirm the importance of these two concepts for the understanding of the “depoliticized life" of drug traffickers as well as the governmental policies, both legal and health focused on this issue.

A questão da colonização no Brasil: historiografia e documentos

In this article we draw attention to the fact that the documentation relating to the decision to colonize Brazil, as well as the early stages of colonization, comprising two interpretations about the reasons to occupy, populate and organize the production on American soil. The Brazilian historiography joined the explanation of that pressure from European nations led to the Portuguese crown decided on an occupation more effectively. But without ignoring this reason, the documentation allows to take into account their own historical circumstances created by the development of trade. These are essential conditions for the emergence and effectiveness of the proposal to colonize Brazil. Thus, when considering only the pressure of European nations the Brazilian historiography remained on the surface of events. It’s necessary to take into account the documentation on what it allows to grasp the colonial process as a historical phenomenon and not just as an act of will.

Teoria e metodologia na escrita da História do Brasil: Afonso de Taunay e a Academia Brasileira de Letras

The history of historiography in recent decades has the breathing space needed in the concerns of historians and has been transformed into a research field with its own issues. Uploaded this in perspective, this paper aims to understand how aspects of the theory of history and methodology have been addressed by Afonso de Escragnolle Taunay (1876-1958). We selected the letters exchanged by the author, the speeches of acceptance at the ABL, some articles and books produced by Taunay in the 1930s. In the first decades of the twentieth century, when it sought to define the historiography and its limits in both the literature and social science sources, the subjectivity is presented as the final decision making of the author, especially those related to the new site production Taunay, the Brazilian Academy of Letters.

O ensino superior noturno no Brasil: história, crescimento e políticas públicas no início do século XXI

There are three distinct and complementary objectives The first objective is to present a short historical overview on the establishment of evening courses in Brazil (classes are held on weekdays, generally from 7:00 pm to 10:30 pm), including those in the higher education level, occurred on the middle of last century. The second objective is to demonstrate the growth of evening higher education, considering that in 1998, of the 2.1 million college enrollments, 55.3% were enrolled in evening courses; in 2010, twelve years later, of the 5.4 million students enrolled, there were 63.5% enrolled in evening courses. The third objective is to discuss current public policies to expand evening openings in public institutions which represent nowadays only 16.1% of the 3.4 million enrollments for evening classes. In the third objective it is included the discussion of programs for scholarships and tuition loans. The research results pointed to the importance of federal programs for scholarships and tuition loans for students from private institutions such as the 1,382,484 scholarships since 2004 (PROUNI Program) and the 847,000 tuition loans since 1999 (FIES Program). Important steps have been made by the Brazilian government. Considering that there are 3,987,424 enrollments in private institutions, the effectiveness of the programs for scholarships and tuition loans is still insufficient to meet the universal benefits for the student’s needs. Evening courses became the real instrument of social inclusion for many Brazilian youths and must be expanded quantitatively and qualitatively, with aggressive public policies, including also, scholarships and tuition loans.
