Passive smoking in babies: the BIBE study (brief intervention in babies : effectiveness)

There is evidence that exposure to passive smoking in general, and in babies in particular, is an important cause of morbimortality. Passive smoking is related to an increased risk of pediatric diseases such as sudden death syndrome, acute respiratory diseases, worsening of asthma, acute-chronic middle ear disease and slowing of lung growth. The objective of this article is to describe the BIBE study protocol. The BIBE study aims to determine the effectiveness of a brief intervention within the context of Primary Care, directed to mothers and fathers that smoke, in order to reduce the exposure of babies to passive smoking (ETS)

A narratividade educativa na 1ª fase da governação de Oliveira Salazar : a voz das mulheres na Assembleia Nacional portuguesa (1935-1945)

Com a ascensão de Oliveira Salazar ao governo, no seguimento do golpe militar de 1926 que pôs fi m ao período de vida republicana democrática instaurada em 1910, começa a desenhar-se um processo conducente à instauração de um regime autoritário. A Constituição aprovada em 1933 defi ne o novo regime que fi cou conhecido por Estado Novo, sustentado ideologicamente por um pensamento antiliberal, de cariz católico, e que vai manter Portugal, em larga medida, alheio às profundas transformações com que se deparam as sociedades europeias. Não obstante, é este regime político que vai conceder às mulheres portuguesas não só o direito de voto, nunca alcançado durante a 1.ª República, apesar das reivindicações feministas, como lhes vai dar assento na Assembleia Nacional. A política educativa de Oliveira Salazar, entre 1935 e 1947, corresponde à formação e consolidação duma escola nacionalista, tendo por fi m preparar os novos homens e as novas mulheres que irão servir a sociedade portuguesa, sustentada em três pilares – Deus, Pátria e Família. Com esta comunicação pretende-se divulgar o trabalho desenvolvido no âmbito do projecto Mulheres, educação, poder(es), cujo objectivo principal é trabalhar fontes primárias, como contributo para a escrita da História da Educação das Mulheres no Portugal contemporâneo. Tendo em atenção as intervenções das mulheres deputadas durante três legislaturas (1935-1945), propomonos enquadrar a participação feminina no espaço político, estudando os seus discursos, em função da categoria de género.

Musealising hope: reflections on the saga of an artistic installation of human solidarity

“Musealising hope” reflects on the trials and tribulations of an installation designed as a tribute to the struggle for survival of African peoples who dare make the long trek to Europe by sea. Its accomplishment involved a number of players whose conduct and reactions to events bear witness to the manner in which artists, the media, heads of cultural institutions, museologists, welfare institutions, and politicians cope with the phenomenon of immigration and with our present-day multicultural societies. In turn, this artistic endeavour and its symbolic signification highlight the changes which art and culture have undergone over the past few years and the kind of transformation which new inter-ethnic communities have brought to bear on concepts such as national heritage, identity or memory.

Descalzos, cocolos y niñas de la caridad en Cuenca: cambios y continuidades en el régimen escolar, 1930-1945 (Estudios)

El artículo muestra cómo los postulados de libertad e igualdad, propuestos por el Estado nacional, fueron asimilados por las escuelas religiosas de la ciudad de Cuenca, en Ecuador. A través del análisis de dos fuentes: la literatura y los testimonios orales de quienes fueron alumnos de estas escuelas entre 1928 y 1946, el estudio muestra cómo en esta ciudad el liberalismo no fue percibido como obstáculo para que los niños pobres opten por la educación religiosa. En este contexto, la propuesta liberal chocó con los valores del antiguo régimen escolar. Si bien se mantenían las diversas prácticas de discrimen de una sociedad local estratificada, al mismo tiempo se observa que también se introdujeron cambios especialmente en la educación de las mujeres de origen popular.
