RELIGIÃO, CORPO E EMOÇÃO: EDUCAÇÃO DOS SENTIDOS E HABITUS DE CLASSE NA IGREJA COMUNIDADE DA GRAÇA NO ABC PAULISTA

O objeto de estudo desta pesquisa é a Comunidade da Graça, presente há dez anos em São Bernardo do Campo, região do ABC paulista. Analisa-se o lugar da emoção religiosa e sua relação com a educação dos sentidos nesta confraria protestante pentecostal formada majoritariamente por pessoas de classe média, como propiciadora da assimilação de um habitus e de um forte auto-controle individual evidenciando a eficácia do adestramento corporal pela via da religião. Imersa em uma realidade social de muitas mudanças que provocam reconfigurações das religiões, no tipo específico de pentecostalismo estudado nota-se que, na gestão dos bens simbólicos, o ingrediente emocional é o principal acessório a fim de responder às demandas coletivas e individuais deste público religioso. Se há alguns anos a centralidade cúltica do protestantismo pentecostal estava no ouvir a prédica e reviver a experiência do pentecostes cristão, hoje em dia o foco neste é a emoção que deve perpassar todo o culto. O mesmo ocorre nos dois espaços catequéticos privilegiados desta igreja, a saber, a reunião no templo chamada de Conhecendo as Escrituras e os encontros de grupos nos lares. Esta mudança se evidencia, também, nos corpos dos fiéis, pois estes se constróem e modelam-se à realidade social vigente e expressam as experiências vivenciadas neste contexto. A partir da observação dos cultos e reuniões catequéticas desta igreja, analisa-se neste trabalho o modo como a emoção religiosa é construída, difundida e reproduzida, levando-se em consideração as condições sociais e econômicas específicas do grupo religioso em questão.(AU)

Exchange controls and European stock market integration

This paper examines the impact on stock price predictability that the removal of exchange controls had on major European countries during the late 1970s and 1980s. It is found that for Germany, Switzerland and France, the removal of exchange controls led to an increase in the interdependence between these and other markets. In contrast, there is little evidence of an increase in interdependence for the UK and Italy.

Stock market efficiency, the small firm effect and cointegration

The cointegration methodology commonly used for testing the efficiency of the foreign exchange market is applied to a sample of UK share prices. Specifically we test for static market efficiency in the share prices of small and large firms, using monthly data from January 1975 to December 1989. The empirical findings provide evidence of market efficiency for portfolios of large firms but of inefficiency for small firm portfolios. These results are indicative of a small firm effect in the UK stock market.

Pentecôte et langues de feu : analyse structurelle et interprétation d’Actes des Apôtres 2,3

Le récit de la Pentecôte (Actes des Apôtres 2) présente au lecteur un élément particulier qui se retrouve rarement dans le canon biblique : les « langues comme de feu ». Seuls les passages d’Isaïe 5,24 et Actes 2,3 utilisent cette expression; pourtant, leurs contextes diffèrent largement. Nous trouvons certains commentaires rabbiniques et fragments de rouleaux de la Mer Morte qui emploient cette même expression, et la littérature gréco-romaine utilise une image similaire où un feu divin se pose sur la tête de certains personnages. Puisque la fonction de cet élément diffère d’un ouvrage littéraire à un autre, comment devons-nous interpréter les langues de feu dans le récit de la Pentecôte? Les commentaires bibliques qui examinent cet élément proposent différentes hypothèses sur la symbolique des langues de feu. Afin de répondre à cette problématique, nous commencerons notre étude avec une présentation sur l’état de la question et des approches synchroniques utilisées. Nous présenterons ensuite l’analyse structurelle du récit de la Pentecôte afin de percevoir la place que notre expression occupe dans cette péricope. Au chapitre trois, nous ferons une analyse grammaticale de notre segment afin de voir la fonction grammaticale de l’expression, et présenter une recension des ouvrages hébraïques et gréco-romains qui utilisent cette expression ou une image similaire. Enfin, l’analyse philologique des termes γλῶσσα et πῦρ sera élaborée et comparée à l’utilisation retrouvée dans le livre des Actes des Apôtres. Subséquemment, nous serons en mesure de porter un regard critique sur quelques interprétations proposées afin de percevoir que la mise en réseau structurel du membre γλῶσσαι ὡσεὶ πυρός, avec les termes répétitifs et synonymiques du récit, nous orientent à percevoir l’accomplissement de la promesse du Saint-Esprit, qui à son tour habilite le croyant à réaliser la mission donnée : la proclamation du message christologique à toutes les ethnies.

Every nation under heaven: the importance of the biblical concept of nations for contemporary mission practice

Is there a concept of nationhood in the Bible that can provide us with a framework for cross-cultural Christian mission? This thesis argues that current evangelical missiology has accepted too willingly the categories of the secular Enlightenment understanding of ethnicity and nationhood, and that it needs to rethink its understanding of nations from a biblical standpoint. While the pressures of globalisation are seen by some as rapidly eclipsing the nation-state, this thesis will argue that we need to move beyond the narrower secular categories of citizenship, political power and the boundaries of the state to recover a more biblical understanding of nationhood. By reference to Genesis 10-11, Acts 2:1-11 and those passages in the Book of Revelation that discuss the destiny of the nations, it will show that the biblical understanding of nations includes deeper ideas of shared history, culture and language as the essential components of nationhood. It will explain how nations are part of the created order, and explore the impact of the Babel narrative on our understanding of nations in relation to God. It will demonstrate that Pentecost did not reverse the curse of Babel, but served rather to honour the dignity and value of nations and their languages. It will also argue that nations have a destiny in the New Creation according to the Book of Revelation. This biblical concept of nationhood has significant implications in several areas: the development of a public theology; a Christian response to nationalism; the question of how urban mission fits within mission to the nations; and the importance of indigenous languages in cross-cultural mission, especially in the multicultural cities of Europe.
