Implementa����o da pol��tica de assistência social em Mossor��/RN : uma avalia����o a partir dos centros de refer��ncia da assistência social

The current National Policy for Social Assistance (PNAS) is the instrument that regulates the organization and procedures of social-welfare actions. Developed and approved in 2004 since the Unified Social Assistance System (ITS) was crated in 2003, it reaffirms the democratic principles of the Social Assistance Organic Law (LOAS) focusing on the universalization of social rights and equality of rights when accessing the social-welfare system. In the SUAS point of view, the PNAS highlights the information, monitoring and evaluation fields for being the best way to assure the regulation, organization and control by the Federal Government paying attention to the principles of decentralization and participation. This political-institutional rearrangement occurs through the pact among all the three federal entities. The pact deals with the implementation of the task. It says that it has to be shared between the federal autonomous entities, established by dividing responsibilities. To the cities, considered as the smallest territorial unit of the federation and closer to the population, was given the primary responsibility, which is to feed and maintain the database of SUAS NETWORK and identify families living in situations of social vulnerability. In addition to these responsibilities, the cities that have full autonomy in the management of their actions, have the responsibility to organize the basic social protection and the special social protection, that using the Center of Social Assistance Reference (CRAS) and the Center of Specialized Social Assistance Reference (CREAS), are responsible for the provision of programs, projects and services that strengthen the family and community; that promote people who are able to enjoy the benefits of the Continuing benefit of Provisions (BPC) and transfer of incomes; that hold the infringed rights on its territory; that maximize the protective role of families and strengthen its users organization. In Mossor��/RN, city classified as autonomous in the social assistance management, has five units of CRAS that, for being public utilities, are considered the main units of basic social protection, since they are responsible for the connection between the other institutions that compose the network of local social protection. Also known as Family House, the CRAS, among other programs and services, offers the Integral Attention to Families Program (PAIF), Juvenile ProJovem Program, socio-educational coexistence services programs, as well as sending people to other public policies and social-welfare services network, provides information, among others. In this large field, social workers are highlighted as keys to implement the policy of social assistance within the city, followed by psychologists and educators. They should be effective public employees, as a solution to ensure that the provision of the services are to be continued, provided to the population living around the units. However, what we can find here is inattention to the standard rules of social assistance, which not only undermines the quality of programs and services, but also the consolidation of policy on welfare as public policy of social rights

Nutri����o social no Brasil: [mais] uma estrat��gia biopol��tica?

Inspir��s par la �� m��thode �� artisanat intellectuel propose par le sociologue Wright Mills, notre ��tude porte sur la formation du champ de pratiques discursives et non discursives (Michel Foucault) de la nutrition sociale dans le contexte de la soci��t�� br��silienne dans lequel s ins��re le champ de la sant��. Le travail empirique s ��puise sur une source de documents normatifs de ce champ et s oriente �� v��rifier et �� comprendre comment le praticien de la nutrition ��merge dans le sc��nario des pratiques de la sant�� au Br��sil �� partir du milieux du 20��me si��cle, tout en construisant son �� regime de v��rit�� �� fond�� dans des processus biopolitiques du champ de la m��decine sociale. Nous avons reli�� deux ph��nom��nes: a) l ��mergeance du champ biom��dical de la nutrition comme une instance biopolitique, en approchant cette formation �� l'histoire de la m��decine sociale, depuis ses d��buts europ��ens jusqu'au contexte br��silien ; b) les pratiques discursives et non discursives du champ de la nutrition lequel est compris dans le Sistema ��nico de Sa��de (SUS - Syst��me Unique de Sant��) br��silien. La d��marche de recherche comprend l'��laboration et analyse d'une archive compos��e de publications qui contiennent l'Histoire du praticien de la nutrition au Br��sil et des publications officielles disponibles dans le site web �� Pol��tica Nacional de Alimenta����o e Nutri����o �� (Politique Nationale d'Alimentation et de Nutrition) lesquelles sont consid��r��es comme des guides d actions des praticiens de la nutrition sociale dans le Sistema ��nico de Sa��de (SUS). Le concept de biopouvoir, d��crit par Michel Foucault entre 1974 et 1979, et la notion de biopolitique, dans son sens r��interpr��t�� et mis �� jour par Giorgio Agamben, Ant��nio Negri et Michael Hardt, ont fourni le support th��orique de cette recherche

O Psic��logo no campo do Bem-Estar: cartografias de pr��ticas na sa��de e assistência social

The study focuses on the psychology and Social Well-being Policy encounters. The objective is to understand how the psychologists in the health services of Natal, RN, specifically in the Basic Health Units and social assistance, experience their daily practices. The methodology included observation and interviews of 13 psychologists regarding their daily activities and forms of practice in these services. We utilized an interview protocol directed at the affective memory and the professional life history of these technicians. Field notes were used to produce a cartography of the encounter intensities experienced by the researcher in the investigated context. The data analysis enabled the construction of the following analytic axes: 1) Work processes and proximity/ distancing points between these fields; 2) Forms of government and life management in the well-being context; 3) Experiments of self in the daily services. The first axis showed the precariousness of working conditions (remuneration issues, lack of structure, of training and autonomy for the activities). In the second axis the identified care forms produced in these fields indicated an adherence to the production of ideal subjects characterized as autonomous, productive, healthy and aware of own rights . These were considered normative insofar as they express attempts to break with the established patterns. In the third axis, many technicians experienced constraint with the daily activities because they found themselves in contexts that were adverse to the habitual forms of action. This situation provoked two distinct forms of positioning: a) action expressed by compassion, pity and resentment; b) investment in the practices themselves, so as to overcome its limits and to respond innovatively to the difficulties and/or challenges that these contexts provoke

Instrumentalidade do servi��o social na previd��ncia social no Brasil contempor��neo

In the sociability of the capital, the challenges to the consolidation of social security as a public policy become expressive, which has implications for social security services, particularly for Social Works who works for the security and fulfillment of social rights. Therefore, in this context of denial of these rights becomes relevant the work of social worker, as a professional committed to the ethical-political project and the Matrix Theory and Methodology of Social work, which potentiate the action able to establish professional articulated strategies for the strengthening of collective struggles for equality in society. Thus, this study examines the instrumentality of social work in the contemporary world and its contribution to the realization of rights.

The demands made by the managers for the profession on the sociooccupational have extrapolated the powers and duties of the Law Regulating the Profession and the Matrix of Social Work in welfare. The subjects of this study emphasize the role of social category of the National Institute of Social Security and the Federal Council of Social Service in defense of Social Works. The knowledge of social and institutional framework is critical to building control strategies that strengthen social security and public policy, the guarantor of social rights for workers in Brazil
