The achievement of this study was stimulated by the interest in unraveling the contradictory reality imposed by neoliberal State, sparing the guarantee of rights, especially to these teens, who are seen as authors of violations and are stigmatized by capitalist society. The research was carried in the period July-September 2013, under critical perspective, using the documental analysis and the observational techniques and interviews with professionals of the Educational Center (CEDUC), of the Unified Health System (SUS), of the Social Policies of Social Assistance, and of the State Department of Education, which should make the service network that gravitates around the National System of Socio-educational Services (SINASE). The Statute of Children and Adolescents (ECA) and SINASE define that the application of socioeducational measures cannot occur isolated of the public policies, becoming indispensable the linkages of the system with the social policies of social assistance, education and health. However, it was observed that the neoliberal logic of the capitalist State has developed broken, disconnected, focal and superficial social policies, who fail give effect to the rights acquired beyond the legal sphere. In this perspective, it is possible affirm that the everyday of the Brazilian poor teens is marked by the action of the State, which aims to control those who disturb the order of capital, who threaten the production, the market, the consume and the private property. This way, actions are promoted criminalizing poverty and imprint a legal action over this expression of the social issue to the detriment of social policies that meet the real needs of adolescents. Face of this reality, it becomes necessary to put on the agenda of the here and now to fight for rights, aiming at a broad public debate involving professionals, researchers and social movements in support of the viability of rights, which aims to support reflections and to strengthen ways to confront this social problem. With the approximations of this study, it was learned that the struggle for rights is a fight for another project of society, beyond what is laid.

As part of the feminist movement - political subject of women - the autonomy is established dynamically, back and forth from the socio-historical context that sign and thus the correlation of forces that is with the women's group . Thus, for this work it was necessary to feminism take on your current process, which set the transitional period of "onguização" of feminist organizations (1980 to 2000), which discusses the relative loss of autonomy before the alliance as State and dependence on development agencies, for the current period, which incorporates discourses and practices through autonomous groups and their militants.

Prevalência e fatores associados à alteração vocal em idosos institucionalizados com capacidade cognitiva preservada

Voice disorders (VD) in the elderly can interfere negatively in communication, emotional well-being and quality of life, conditions that correspond to greater exposure to illness and social isolation bringing consequent economic impact for the health system. It is assumed that institutionalized confinement, weakness and morbidity associated to nursing home (NH) contribute to transform VD an especially prevalent condition in institutionalized elderly, including those without cognitive impairment. Thus, the aim of this study was to determine the prevalence and associated factors of VD in NH elderly residents without cognitive impairment. There is no epidemiological diagnostic instruments of VD for elderly populations, so the first step of this study was dedicated to prepare and analyze the psychometric properties of a short, inexpensive and easy to use questionnaire named Screening for Voice Disorders in Older Adults (Rastreamento de Alterações Vocais em Idosos—RAVI). The methodological procedures of this step followed the guidelines of the Standards for Educational and Psychological Testing and contemplated validity evidence based on test content, based on response processes, based on internal structure and based on relations with other variables, as well as reliability analysis and clinical consistency. The result of the validation process showed that the RAVI final score generate valid and reliable interpretations for the epidemiological diagnosis of VD in the elderly, which endorsed the use of the questionnaire in the second stage of the study, performed in ten NH located in the city of Natal, Rio Grande do Norte. At this stage, data from socioeconomic and demographic variables, lifestyle, general health conditions and characterization of the institution were collected. It was performed a bivariate analysis and it was calculated the prevalence ratio as a magnitude association measure, with a confidence interval of 95%. The variables with p-value less than 0.20 were included in the multiple logistic regression model that followed the Forward selection method. The odds ratio found in the multivariate model was converted into prevalence ratio and the level of significance was 5%. The sample consisted of 117 subjects with predominance of females and average of 79.68 (± 7.92) years old. The prevalence of VD was 39.3% (95% CI: 30.4-48.1%). The multivariate model showed statistically significant association between VD and depressive symptoms, smoking for a year or more and selfreported hearing loss. In conclusion, VD is a prevalent health condition in NH elderly residents without cognitive impairment and is associated with factors involving psychosocial, lifestyle and communicative disability that require attention of managers and professionals involved with NH environment. Strategies to encourage communication and social integration, actions to combat smoking and minimizing the effects of hearing loss could stimulate the physical well-being, emotional and mental health of institutionalized elderly population, contributing to the vocal and communicative maintenance, a more effective social inclusion and better overall health condition.

No fio da meada: um estudo acerca da precarização do trabalho na indústria têxtil

In line with the process of financialization and globalization of capital, which has intensified in all latitudes of the globe, the world of work is permeated by his determinations arising and also has been (re) setting from numerous changes expressed by example, in the unbridled expansion of temporary forms of work activities, and flexible outsourced by the growth of informality, forming a new morphology of work. However, regardless of how these forms are expressed in concrete materiality, there is something that unifies: all of them are marked by exponentiation of insecurity and hence the numerous negative effects on the lives of individuals who need to sell their labor power to survive. Given this premise, the present work is devoted to study, within the framework of the Brazilian particularities of transition between Fordism and Toyotism, what we call composite settings of the conditions and labor relations processed within the North river- textile industry Grande. To this end, guided by historical and dialectical materialism, we made use of social research in its qualitative aspect, using semi-structured interviews, in addition to literature review, information retrieval and use of field notes. From our raids, we note that between the time span stretching from the 1990s to the current year, the Natal textile industry has been undergoing a process of successive and intense changes in their modus operandi, geared specifically to the organization and labor management causing, concomitantly, several repercussions for the entire working class.

Expectativas Associadas ao Cuidar das Gerações Mais Velhas

A sociedade contemporânea é marcada por mudanças paradigmáticas, culturais, sócio-económicos e de valores que comportam transformações no indivíduo e na família. O cuidado informal intergeracional reflecte tais mudanças, tendo-se revelado importante conhecer as expectativas de adultos face à necessidade de cuidar das gerações mais velhas, assim como compreender e analisar as diferenças nas fratrias face às diversas expectativas associadas ao cuidado dos idosos. Este é um tipo de estudo transversal prospectivo de natureza quantitativa, utilizando como documentos de recolha de dados um inquérito por questionário de administração indirecta construído para o efeito. A amostra do estudo é constituída por adultos portugueses em idade activa (25 aos 65 anos), não cuidadores, com pelo menos um dos progenitores vivo. Contou com 186 participantes com uma média de idade de 32 anos, maioritariamente do sexo feminino (88%) e com habilitações literárias ao nível do ensino superior (91%). Os resultados indicam que todos os filhos apontam o amor e ternura como principal motivo expectável para cuidar. Os filhos únicos prevêem uma maior dificuldade a nível económico e ponderam uma maior procura de recursos exteriores, ao contrário dos membros de fratria que tendem a optar por uma estratégia de exclusividade. As rotinas domésticas, as actividades de lazer e a produtividade no trabalho são as principais áreas de vida que os inquiridos conjecturam serem afectadas. Optar por cuidar em família não pode ser penalizador para as famílias. No sentido de antecipar eventuais dificuldades no decurso do seu ciclo de vida, as famílias deverão ser estimuladas a pensar como conciliar a sua vida com a eventual necessidade de prestação de cuidados informais a idosos, devendo o Serviço Social assumir uma postura propositiva face às responsabilidades que as políticas públicas apresentam neste domínio, assim como para a definição e ampliação de programas que respondam efectivamente às necessidades das pessoas dependentes, dos cuidadores e das famílias.

Centros Sociais e Intervenção Comunitária

No actual contexto da sociedade da incerteza, agravado pelas consequências da crise económica e financeira global, assiste-se a um retomar de práticas de âmbito comunitário que comportam um conjunto de desafios à intervenção social e, consequentemente, ao Serviço Social como profissão nuclear da intervenção social. A presente dissertação visa por um lado, compreender, a partir de um estudo de caso centrado nos Centros Sociais Municipais de Santana, as transformações que se têm operado no âmbito da Intervenção Comunitária e por outro, desenvolver uma reflexão não só sobre as relações existentes entre a Intervenção Comunitária e os Centros Sociais, como “novos-velhos” paradigmas institucionais, mas também entre a Intervenção Comunitária e o Serviço Social de Comunidades. Partindo de um enfoque qualitativo, dentro da metodologia da grounded theory, privilegiou-se como técnicas a observação das relações sociais nos Centros Sociais Municipais e as entrevistas compreensivas em profundidade, tanto às técnicas superiores dos Centros Sociais, como à coordenadora. Adoptando uma postura reflexiva, interrogativa e problematizadora constante, percebeu-se que, efectivamente, a Intervenção Comunitária desenvolvida em Santana é, mais concretamente, uma actuação pluralista de âmbito comunitário, a qual resulta do processo de destradicionalização do Serviço Social de Comunidades, aproximando-se da Intervenção em Comunidades. Os Centros Sociais são locus privilegiados da intervenção de âmbito comunitário, na medida em que se têm recontextualizado, respondendo às (pseudo) transformações culturais, institucionais e políticas, legitimando assim uma prática profissional de funções mediadoras, dentro de um eixo normalizador.

Como a Fada Desvalorizada Lida com o Lar

Para compreender a auto-avaliação e avaliação social atribuída ao trabalho da mulher Doméstica, partiu-se da análise e interpretação de 8 Trajetórias Identitárias de Mulheres Domésticas Alentejanas que ao longo da sua vida tenham sido Domésticas a tempo inteiro, ou que de algum modo tenham conciliado ou conciliem a Dupla Tarefa. A Problematização do Trabalho realizado pela Mulher Doméstica considerou teorias de autores como Parsons e Daniel Bertaux, tendo sido a conceptualização do Trabalho Doméstico elaborada tendo por base Virgínia Ferreira;, Gules Lipovetsky e Ana Nunes de Almeida. A partir das narrativas exemplares e seguindo uma metodologia compreensiva qualitativa, através do Método de Escrita como Praxis Analítica, identificaram-se: algumas Lógicas de Acção; vários Territórios Sócio-Identitários; as Reacções sentidas pelas 8 narradoras nas suas Trajetórias e, ainda, as Estratégias adoptadas pelas Mulheres Domésticas Alentejanas na relação com o trabalho doméstico e com a dupla tarefa. Ao concluir a interpretação dos casos percebe-se que, para além da Condição de Doméstica comum entre todas as narradoras, existe ainda a predominância de alteração dos Territórios Sócio-Identitários Laboral, Escolar e Familiar. É clara a consciência destas mulheres quanto à desvalorização do Trabalho Doméstico pela Família e pela Sociedade. Neste sentido, é também negativa a auto-avaliação, das tarefas de diariamente realizam. Daí que seja unânime a vontade de libertação através da Dupla Tarefa, ou seja, a colocação profissional é vista como uma garantia de reconhecimento do seu trabalho e, também, um modo de autonomia económica e identitária.

As redes do sem-abrigo e para o sem-abrigo em Coimbra

O presente estudo aborda a problemática dos sem-abrigo numa perspectiva institucional, pretendendo compreender de que forma é realizada a intervenção sócio-institucional aos sem-abrigo da cidade de Coimbra. Trata-se de um estudo descritivo das instituições de suporte social formal à população sem-abrigo na cidade de Coimbra que pretendeu conhecer não só o funcionamento, o tipo de respostas existentes, os equipamentos e recursos institucionais, como também compreender a organização do trabalho inter-institucional. Os principais instrumentos de recolha de informação foram um Questionário de Caracterização das Instituições e um Questionário de Rede que caracteriza as relações inter-institucionais. Os principais resultados vão de encontro à realidade institucional do país, destacando-se a escassez de respostas a nível da reintegração social do sem-abrigo, a sobreposição de respostas de carácter essencialmente assistencialista e uma desarticulação entre serviços e entidades que contrapõem o processo exequível da intervenção social com esta população-alvo. Concluímos ainda que a cidade de Coimbra reúne os meios para atingir os fins, desde que maximizados os recursos e potenciada a articulação inter-institucional, ainda pouco consistente.

O Teatro e a Prisão

A presente dissertação visa a obtenção do grau de mestre em Serviço Social pelo Instituto Superior Miguel Torga. Intitulado o Teatro e a Prisão, o presente estudo centra-se numa abordagem exploratória da importância do teatro em meio prisional, no qual procurámos compreender e explicar quais os benefícios da actividade teatral para os reclusos que nela participam. Isto para verificarmos se as actividades socioculturais como o teatro, desenvolvidas no Estabelecimento Prisional de Coimbra, podem contribuir para a não-dessocialização dos reclusos. Nesta investigação foi fundamental recorrer à percepção dos actoresreclusos, pelo que realizámos entrevistas a alguns elementos que constituíam o grupo de teatro, que posteriormente foram tratadas através do método de análise de conteúdo. O teatro apresenta-se constituído como pelouro de actuação dos técnicos superiores de reeducação, encontrando-se deste modo já institucionalizado na prisão de Coimbra. Ao analisá-lo, foi possível concluir que este contribui para uma melhoria das relações pelo que poderá simultaneamente contribuir para a diminuição de distúrbios e tumultos que afectam o clima prisional e também para a não-dessocialização dos reclusos, por outro lado podemos encarar o teatro como promotor da autonomia e auto-afirmação do indivíduo. Os próprios actores percepcionaram e valorizaram os aspectos benéficos decorrentes da actividade teatral, dentro dos quais sinalizaram: o contributo para o reformular do seu quotidiano, uma melhoria ao nível da linguagem e das relações interpessoais, mudança no auto-conceito e auto-estima, e possibilidade de diminuição de estigmas através do contacto com pessoas vindas da sociedade exterior. É possível destacar o teatro e a cultura como elemento constitutivo da reeducação social dos reclusos, vertente do tratamento penitenciário que começa a dar os seus passos e que deve ser valorizada e enfatizada, dado que nesta matéria vão havendo experiências mas há ainda um vasto campo a explorar.
