This thesis examines the Kindred of the Kibbo Kift, a co-educational outdoors organisation that claimed to be a youth organisation and a cultural movement active from August 1920 to January 1932. Originally part of the Boy Scouts and Girl Guides, the Kibbo Kift offers rich insight into the interwar period in Britain specifically because it carried forward late Victorian and Edwardian ideology in how it envisioned Britain. Members constructed their own historical narrative, which endeavoured to place the organisation at the heart of British life. The organisation’s internal life revolved around the unique mythology members developed, and the movement aspired to regenerate Britain after the First World War physically and spiritually. This thesis argues Kibbo Kift was a distinctive movement that drew upon its members’ intellectual preoccupations and ideals and inspired its members to create unique cultural artefacts. While the Kibbo Kift was ultimately too politically ambiguous to have lasting political impact on a national scale, examining the organisation offers important insight into intellectual thought and cultural production during the British interwar period. This thesis charts the changes the organisation underwent through its membership and the different trends of intellectual thought brought in by individual members, such as its leader, John Hargrave, brought to the group. It examines the cultural production of the organisation’s unique mythology, which created a distinctive historical narrative. It surveys gender issues within the organisation through the “roof tree”, an experimental family unit, and the group’s increasing anti-feminism. Finally, it considers how Clifford H. Douglas’ economic theory of social credit caused the Kibbo Kift to transform into the Green Shirts Movement for Social Credit and later into the Social Credit Party of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.

This project is a feminist disability rhetorical analysis of US black and white women’s rights movements from 1832-1932. Guided by Disability and Feminist Theory, it works to identify the presence and use of patterns of disability tropes in women’s rights discourses. From Lucretia Coffin Mott to Sojourner Truth, Elizabeth Cady Stanton to Mary Church Terrell, and Charlotte Perkins Gilman to Addie Hunton, this project interrogates the rhetorical work of dominant narratives and lesser known voices in women’s rights discourses. I argue that early black and white women’s rights advocates often utilized and repeated a disability rhetoric that relied on disability metaphor, narrative prosthesis, and corporeally exclusionary narratives in order to construct definitions of womanhood. Their insistence on cognitive ability as a marker of “fitness” and “ability” provided the foundation for rights arguments based on ableist assumptions of autonomy and citizenship. I also argue that this use of disability rhetoric relied on and furthered a pervasive ableist ideology present not only in many of these movements, but in US society. In the process, US black and white women’s rights discourses have continually elided women with disabilities from women’s rights discourses because their bodies (physically, cognitively, and/or psychologically) did not meet the ableist prerequisites set for claiming women’s rights during this time period.

The necessity of the insertion of the capital of Rio Grande do Norte in the world-wide commercial scene and its claim as the seat of political power, in ends of nineteenth and beginning of twentieth century, determined the direction of urban interventions undertaken by government to restructure the city. In that matter, there were several actions of improvements and embellishment in Natal, which had, as a starting point, the adequacy works of the port, located in the Ribeira quarter, with the aim of ending the physical isolation that reinforced its economic stagnation. Besides the problems faced in the opening bar of the Potengi River, and would complement the required improvements, other barriers demonstrate the tension established between the physic-geographic field and the man: the flooded and slope which connected Cidade Alta and Ribeira the first two quarters of the city.The execution of these works demanded knowledge whose domain and application it was for engineering. But, how the actions done for the engineers, in sense to transform natural areas into constructed spaces made possible the intentional conformation of the quarter of the Ribeira in a commercial and politician-administrative center, in the middle of the XIX century and beginning of the XX? Understand, therefore, the employment effects of technology on the physical-geographical Ribeira, is the objective of this work that uses theoretical and methodological procedures of Urban Environmental History, by analyzing the relationship between the environment and the man, mediated by knowledge and use of technologies. The documental research was used, as primary sources, the Messages of the Provincial Assembly Government that later became the Legislative Assembly of Rio Grande do Norte reports and articles on specialized publications, in addition to local newspapers. The work is structured in five chapters. First, some comments about Urban Environmental History (Chapter 1) supplemented with analysis of the conceptual construction of nature in the Contemporary Era and its application in the city (chapter 02), the following chapters (03 and 04) deal with the rise of engineers as a active group in the Brazilian government frameworks and their vision about the nature inside the urban environment and it is studied how the professional technicians dealt with the improvement work of the harbor and in the shock with the natural forces. Other works that would complement this "project" of modernization and had had natural obstacles to be removed the Ribeira flood and slope constitute the subject of the fifth chapter. Finally, some final considerations retake the initial discussions aiming an association between the technique and the nature as junction elements inside the process of constitution of a Modern Natal

Morocco was the last North African country in which a Pasteur institute was created, nearly two decades later than in Tunisia and Algeria. In fact, two institutes were opened, the first in Tangier in 1913 and the second in Casablanca in 1932. This duplication, far from being a measure of success, was the material expression of the troubles Pastorians had experienced in getting a solid foothold in the country since the late 19th century. These problems partly derived from the pre-existence of a modest Spanish-Moroccan bacteriological tradition, developed since the late 1880s within the framework of the Sanitary Council and Hygiene Commission of Tangier, and partly from the uncoordinated nature of the initiatives launched from Paris and Algiers. Although a Pasteur Institute was finally established, with Paul Remlinger as director, the failure of France to impose its colonial rule over the whole country, symbolized by the establishment of an international regime in Tangier, resulted in the creation of a second centre in Casablanca. While elucidating many hitherto unclear facts about the entangled origins of both institutes, the author points to the solidity of the previously independent Moroccan state as a major factor behind the troubled translation of Pastorianism to Morocco. Systematically dismissed or downplayed by colonial and postcolonial historiography, this solidity disrupted the French takeover of the country and therefore Pastorian expectations.

ResumenEste artículo analiza la cambiante memoria histórica del levantamiento comunista ocurrido en El Salvador en 1932. Las diferencias que se observan al comparar recuentos contemporáneos de los eventos y fuentes periodísticas de diferentes épocas, muestran el carácter maleable de las narrativas construidas para describir y explicar el levantamiento. El artículo muestra la relación entre variaciones en las narrativas y cambios en la situación sociopolítica de El Salvador.AbstractThis article analyzes the ever-changing historic memory of the Communist uprising in El Salvador that took place in 1932. The dissimilarities observed when comparing the contemporary narration of events with the newspaper sources at different points in time, clearly evidence the malleable nature of the accounts created to describe and explain the revolt. This article highlights the existing connection between the variations in the narratives and the changes in the socio-political situation of El Salvador.

A geografia crítica encontrou em Nelson Werneck Sodré uma de suas primeiras expressões. No final da década de 1970, quando a Geografia brasileira, especialmente a acadêmica era dominada pela “Escola” francesa e quando o neopositivismo já grassava no campo do planejamento econômico-territorial, este autor aparece como um dos pioneiros a exigir a reflexão crítica do fazer geográfico. Este trabalho procura resgatar o papel político cumprido por “Introdução à Geografia: Geografia e Ideologia” em relação ao movimento crítico que ganhou maior força nos anos de 1980-90. Sua crítica recai diretamente sobre a Geografia enquanto instrumento geopolítico primordial dos países centrais, numa construção que a coloca como um dos principais veículos da colonização e, portanto, do imperialismo. O método geográfico é acusado e deslindado na exposição da obra como o maior responsável pela debilidade da Geografia em assumir seu devido papel no movimento social. A exclusão da abordagem historicizada, teria tornado a Geografia um instrumento do poder imperialista retirando dela o caráter científico e a colocando na condição de ideologia. O movimento crítico alcançou um patamar que começa a requisitar sua devida avaliação e é, nesse sentido, que se desenvolve esta pesquisa que, aqui, expressa parte de seus resultados.

A criação e os esforços para manter os periódicos das associações profissionais e científicas foram fundamentais para consolidar o processo de formação da cultura técnica moderna no Brasil, a partir da segunda metade do século XIX. Ainda limitadas às dificuldades de circulação e a um reduzido corpo técnico, essas publicações configurariam uma arena pública que incorporou debates nacionais articulados desde então: necessidade de conhecimento e de integração do território, políticas centrais de circulação e comunicação, entre outros. Nesse contexto, a Revista da Sociedade de Geografia do Rio de Janeiro empenhava-se em desvelar um Brasil pouco conhecido. Compreender o papel desse periódico na construção de um pensamento próprio sobre a região Nordeste constitui o objetivo deste trabalho. A análise documental se faz a partir do material publicado entre 1885, ano da sua criação, e 1932, quando divulga artigo emblemático sobre o tema. Os estudos sobre os índices pluviométricos irregulares, a descrição da paisagem física e as crônicas de viagem à região proporcionaram novo olhar cujos contornos aprofundam a discussão acerca da conformação da “dimensão técnica das secas” e permitem o entendimento da formulação dos projetos nacionais (de transformação e controle do território) no âmbito técnico-científico, na virada para o século XX.

In the early twentieth century, musicology was established as an academic discipline in the United States. Nonetheless, with the exception of Iberian medieval and Renaissance repertories, U.S. scholars largely overlooked the music of the Spanish- and Portuguese- speaking world. Why should this have been the case, especially in light of Spain’s strong historical presence in the United States? This autobiographical essay examines this question by tracing the career of an individual musicologist, the Hispanist musicologist Carol A. Hess. Evaluated here are disciplinary shifts in U.S. musicology —methodological, philosophical, and ideological— over the past thirty years. These transformations have combined to make this repertory a viable field of study today. Musicologists in the United States can now make their careers by specializing in Iberian and Latin American music, as well as the music of the Hispanic diaspora. They research topics ranging from the avant-garde composer Llorenç Barber to the rapper Nach Scratch or the popular bandleader Xavier Cugat and his U.S. audiences of the 1940s, while others also pursue the time-tested areas of medieval and Renaissance music. Iberian and Latin American music is regularly offered in postsecondary institutions while instructors now have a variety of textbooks and other pedagogical resources from which to choose. All add up to a disciplinary freedom that would have been unthinkable only a few decades ago.

A Hipertensão Arterial Sistêmica é uma doença crônica de grande importância para a saúde pública, na qual a Pressão Arterial aumenta até o ponto em que passa a desencadear diversos problemas de saúde e comprometimento de órgãos importantes para o ser humano. Essa elevação dos níveis pressóricos é responsável por elevar a taxa de morbi-mortalidade, sendo vista hoje, como um problema de saúde pública. Sabendo da magnitude deste problema, a ESF Nelson Ventura de Oliveira do Bairro Alto da Vitória, situada no município de Poções/BA, resolveu investir tempo no desenvolvimento de ações de prevenção e promoção à saúde para aumentar a qualidade do atendimento aos hipertensos da área adscrita com o objetivo de melhorar a atenção às pessoas portadoras de HAS da área de abrangência da Unidade de Saúde. O projeto de intervenção contou com a participação dos profissionais da ESF Nelson Ventura de Oliveira (médica, enfermeira, odontóloga, técnicos de enfermagem e agentes comunitários de saúde) em parceria com os profissionais da equipe NASF (nutricionista, fisioterapeuta, psicólogo, assistente social e profissional de educação física) para realizar momentos de prevenção e promoção à saúde com atividades educativas e de práticas de atividades físicas. Com a realização desta intervenção foi possível constatar que houve interesse da comunidade assistida por aderir às orientações de mudança de hábitos alimentares e comportamentais, o que motivou os profissionais envolvidos a promover mais ações coletivas nesse programa e também em outros grupos populacionais com planejamento.
