Retorno ao trabalho : trajetória de trabalhadores metalúrgicos portadores de LER/DORT

O retorno ao trabalho de trabalhadores metalúrgicos afastados por LER/DORT é uma preocupação constante entre órgãos públicos do setor saúde/trabalho e órgãos representativos das diversas categorias profissionais expostas a este tipo de agravo. Este estudo teve por objetivos identificar as dificuldades a que estes trabalhadores estão expostos no processo de retorno ao trabalho e investigar que significados tem o trabalho no seu processo de (re)inserção profissional e sua potencialidade como recurso terapêutico. O referencial teórico baseou-se em autores como Arendt, Canguilhem, Le Guillant, Lima e Assunção, entre outros. A abordagem metodológica foi a da pesquisa qualitativa, estudo de caso múltiplo. Os dados foram coletados através de entrevistas semiestruturadas, complementadas por anotações retiradas dos prontuários médicos, analisadas com base na análise de conteúdo. Constatou-se que se repete o contexto de adoecimento apontado na literatura. Importante papel tem a valoração positiva do ato de trabalhar na manutenção do trabalhador no contexto patogênico e na busca de atendimento precoce. No retorno, são fatores facilitadores: troca de função, possibilidade do trabalhador controlar a execução das atividades, apoio dos colegas e supervisão. Como agentes dificultadores têm-se: alta prematura para o trabalho, retorno para a mesma função (ou semelhante) ausência de programas de retorno ao trabalho, dificuldades no relacionamento com supervisão/colegas, dificuldades de impor limites na execução das tarefas, acompanhadas de medo de ser demitido/discriminado na busca de um novo emprego, vivências de impotência e insegurança quanto ao futuro. São atribuídas ao trabalho as funções de sobrevivência, inserção social, valorização moral e promoção da saúde mental. Paradoxalmente, o trabalho é percebido como causador de adoecimento físico e de sofrimento psíquico. A ausência de trabalho também se associa ao sofrimento psíquico e a práticas contrárias à saúde (tabagismo, alcoolismo, obesidade). Constatou-se que os trabalhadores preferem manter-se no trabalho, visto a positividade conferida ao ato de trabalhar pelo contexto sociocultural.

Responsabilidade social empresarial : o consumidor como motivador de iniciativas : estudo de caso “Conexão Belterra” conduzido pela empresa Vivo

Segundo literatura específica do marketing, o tema de responsabilidade social empresarial (RSE) tem sido, muitas vezes, conduzido pelas empresas com o objetivo de antecipar o comportamento de consumidores que estão demandando cada vez mais esse tipo de iniciativa, configurando-se como uma ação de marketing social. Pesquisas indicam que, apesar de afirmar estar propenso a considerar as atitudes sociais das empresas em suas escolhas de compra, o consumidor não age de acordo com suas intenções declaradas, criando aparentemente uma lacuna entre intenção e comportamento de compra. O objetivo deste trabalho, tendo como ponto de partida a implantação de cobertura 3G na cidade de Belterra, no Pará, pela Vivo, é verificar a importância do stakeholder cliente dentro do contexto RSE da Vivo, por meio de dois pontos de observação: pela ótica das empresas, se o consumidor está entre os motivadores considerados pelos gestores no momento de decisão de investimento na condução de ações de RSE, e, pela ótica dos consumidores, se os brasileiros valorizam e legitimam essas iniciativas com a concretização do seu comportamento de compra. Partimos de uma extensa revisão bibliográfica sobre RSE, a fim de localizarmos, na literatura, como este tema tem sido atrelado ao campo do marketing. Em relação à observação dos motivadores das empresas, compusemos um estudo de caso sobre o projeto Conexão Belterra, tendo como fonte de informação revistas, blogs, entrevistas com executivos da empresa e pesquisa em um trabalho acadêmico dedicado ao levantamento dos resultados dessa implantação (CRUZ, 2002). Apesar de observar que a escolha dessa ação está alinhada com a missão e objetivo da empresa, exemplificando bem a relação entre seu negócio e a sociedade, essa decisão não teve o consumidor como um motivador-chave para sua condução. Em relação ao comportamento do consumidor, localizamos o trabalho desenvolvido por Öberseder, Schlegelmilch e Gruber (2011), cuja base teórica e metodológica, bem como o roteiro de pesquisa, serviu de guia para o desenvolvimento da nossa própria pesquisa empírica. Conduzimos uma pesquisa qualitativa, com 16 entrevistas em profundidade, a fim de explorarmos como as percepções acerca de ações de RSE interferem no processo de avaliação dos consumidores como critério de compra. Os resultados alcançados corroboram, em grande parte, os resultados da pesquisa de Öberseder, Schlegelmilch e Gruber (2011), embora tragam aspectos novos específicos do contexto sociocultural brasileiro.

Afirmação e contestação ao patrimonialismo : um estudo das práticas e das representações sociais num território em transformação

Este estudo situa-se no campo da sociologia rural, a partir da noção do continuum rural/urbano, articulada ao conceito de território como uma construção social que suplanta a dicotomia pela interação entre os atores e base geográfica, formando um complexo contexto sociocultural e econômico. Trata-se da análise das condições socioeconômicas e culturais em que opera a dinâmica do município de Encruzilhada do Sul, localizado no Rio Grande do Sul (Brasil), na busca de oportunidades para seus integrantes. Esse território, nos últimos anos, passa por transformações significativas que impactam a posse e o uso da terra. São mudanças na matriz produtiva, substituindo parte da pecuária extensiva e da agricultura tradicional por grandes áreas de reflorestamento e, em menor escala, introduzindo a fruticultura e inovações na produção em pequenas propriedades. A construção de uma tipologia de inserção dos trabalhadores na transformação territorial, baseada no vínculo de trabalho nas novas atividades, desvelou as condições em que se articularam os atores sociais para produzirem modelos distintos territorialmente pelas características da posse e uso da terra, bem como os resultados decorrentes dessas condições. As conclusões deste estudo indicam que a exploração de atividades econômicas tradicionais e a introdução de novas atividades aparentemente sob uma lógica racional estão reproduzindo o patrimonialismo nas relações sociais e de poder. Por outro lado, as transformações protagonizadas pelos trabalhadores locais na posse e uso da terra, que, pelas suas características, se contrapõem ao modo de exploração e uso tradicionais, reconfiguram as representações sociais, apontando para a construção de um território mais sustentável econômica, social e ambientalmente. Ao correlacionar processos econômicos e processos simbólicos em contextos de transformações territoriais, este estudo apresenta-se como mais uma contribuição no debate que ora se estabelece no sul do Brasil a respeito da mudança da matriz produtiva e do desenvolvimento territorial.

Os anjos podem ferir: um estudo sobre a violência intrafamiliar

This work considers the comprehension of the intrafamiliar violence emphasizing violent mothers relationships with their children. The purpose is to understand the development of these relationships which turn into aggressive behavior of the mothers regarding family education. The research was carried out focusing on two aspects: analysis of the theoretical references and empirical research. The theoretical research was done through a bibliographic survey of subjects related to this study such as: the history of the family, motherhood and children, the intrafamiliar violence practiced by mothers against their children; as well as how those violent relationships emerge from family environment. We point out the Foucault s concept of discipline (FOUCAULT, 1975) and Caldeira s concept of circumscribed body (CALDEIRA, 2000). It was selected a sample of ten women to investigate the relationship between mother and son through a detailed interviews. Five mothers from this sample were denounced to the Tutelary Council and they were set in a so called Denounced Group. Similarly, the other five mothers, who live in the same social and cultural context of the selected families assisted by the Tutelary Council, were set in the Non-Denounced Group. Therefore, we work with representations of the own interviewers about the meaning of the pedagogic socializing discipline in their lives. Our priority was the study of case carried out with the denounced families for physical violence and with the other group in order to develop a comparative analysis of both groups. Such methodological choice is explained by the interest for understanding the violence between mothers and children. It is common to all mothers not to consider aggressive their behavior against their children. We observe that physical punishment is considered a way to discipline children and teenagers, hence that is perceived as necessary to repress, to control, and to adapt them. Thus, it is considered a necessary practice for education. However, the reason that made the community denounced against the mothers of the Denounced Group was due to those did not correspond to an ideal example of what was expected to be a mother (they took drugs, alcohol, and had several sexual partners), that is denounces were not for the physical violence itself. Therefore, those mothers were not denounced because they were not morally able to manage their children s education. The community tolerates the punishment against children, but not the amorality of the women, and they were denounced for disregarding their role as mothers

Ambiente pesqueiro e saúde: representações sociais sobre saúde e doença de pescadores e marisqueiras nos distritos de Diogo Lopes, Barreiras e Sertãozinho Macau RN

According to Brazil s Ministry of Fisheries and Aquaculture, artisanal fishermen are responsible for a significant fish production at national level, highlighting the importance of this activity. In Rio Grande do Norte State, Brazil, fishing has become an important part of economic and social processes. In this context, there are many inland fishing communities such as Barreiras, Diogo Lopes and Sertãozinho, which are part of Ponta do Tubarão State Reserve of Sustainable Development (RDSEPT), located in Macau and Guamaré, Rio Grande do Norte coastline cities. Fishermen and women, the last ones known as marisqueiras who work alongside the menfolk at sea, especially in the shellfish harvest, have been developing narrow relationships with nature, mainly with the sea, from where they extract their families subsistence. However, those communities have been facing several issues related to living conditions, health and diseases. Social representations have been analyzed in the speeches of fishermen/women who were registered active members in a fishermen association named Associação Colônia de Pescadores Z-41, regarding the period from 2008 to 2011. The analysis involved socio-economic profiles verification, identification and analysis of the group s main representative diseases and representations related to health and illness. This study searched for elements in order to provide the comprehension of the relationships among people s social representations and the fishing environment in which they live.. This qualiquantitative study was performed using recordings and transcriptions of structured and open-question interviews. The Collective Subject Speech tecnique proposed by Lefevre & Lefevre (2002) was applied to perform the interviews analysis using QualiQuantiSoft® software. The results showed that health and illness phenomena as well as social representations related to them in the fishing environment are not only abstract states but also physical ones, which interfere in all life extensions, establishing a set of relevant information that indicates that those people realize their own socio-cultural, economic, environmental and political context

Pedagogia etnomatemática : ações e reflexões em matemática do Ensino Fundamental com um grupo sócio cultural específico

mongst the trends in Mathematics Education, which have as their object a more significant and criticallearning, is the Ethnomathematics. This field of knowledge, still very recent amongst us, besides analyzing an externalist history of the sciences in a search for a relationship between the development of the scientific disciplines and the socio-cultural context, goes beyond this externalism, for it also approaches the intimate relationships betwe_n cognition and culture. In fact, the Ethnomathematics proposes an alternative epistemological approach associated with a wider historiography. It struggles to understand the reality and come to the pedagogical action by means of a cognitive approach with strong cultural basis. But the difficulty of inserting the Ethnomathematics into the educational context is met by resistance from some mathematics educators who seem indifferent to the influence of the culture on the understanding of the mathematics ideas. It was with such concerns in mind that I started this paper that had as object to develop a curricular reorientation pedagogical proposal in mathematics education, at the levei of the 5th grade of the Ensino Fundamental (Elementary School), built from the mathematical knowledge of a vegetable farmers community, 30 km away from the center of Natal/RN, but in accordance with the teaching dimensions of mathematics of the 1 st and 2nd cycles proposed by the Parâmetros Curriculares Nacionais - PCN: Numbers and Operations, Space and Form, Units and Measures, and Information Treatment. To achieve that, I developed pedagogical activities from the mathematical concepts of the vegetable farmers of that community, explained in my dissertation research in the period 2000 through 2002. The pedagogical process was developed from August through Oecember 2007 with 24 students of the 5th Grade of the Ensino Fundamental (Elementary School) of the school of that community. The qualitative analysis of the data was conducted taking into account three categories of students: one made up of students that helped their parents in the work with vegetables. Another one by students whose parents and relatives worked with vegetables, though they did not participate directly of this working process and one third category of students that never worked with vegetables, not to mention their parents, but lived adjacent to that community. From the analyses and results of the data gathered by these three distinct categories of students, I concluded that those students that assisted their parents with the daily work with vegetables solved the problem-situations with understanding, and, sometimes, with enriching contributions to the proposed problems. The other categories of students, in spite of the various field researches to the gardens of that community, before and during the pedagogical activities, did not show the same results as those students/vegetable farmers, but showed interest and motivation in ali activities of the pedagogical process in that period

A etnomatemática em uma cerâmica da região do Seridó/RN

This work has as objective to describe mathematical knowledge used as tools in the manufacture and marketing of tiles of red ceramic by potters of the Currais Novos village/ RN, located 250 km from the capital of Rio Grande do Norte. For us to reach our objective, we rely on conceptions ambrosianas of Ethnomatematics, besides of the qualitative research in an ethnographic approach. In the empirical part of the research, that went it accomplishes in the period from 2009 to 2012 in the Currais Novos Village, we support the following tools for data collection, semi-structured interviews, field diary, photographs, audio recordings and participant observations. In the analysis of the collected data, we can conclude that there are mathematical knowledge in the management of manufacture and marketing of tiles, often different from the academic mathematics, mainly in the wood cube, on cube of the clays, in the handler with the measures time, the count method , in the arrangement of tiles, in the preparation of the ceramic mass and sale of tiles. Theses knowledge were described and analyzed in the light of the theoretical Ethnomatematics, also supported in official documents, such as Parameters Nacional Curriculares. The analyzes of these knowledge generated subsidies for elaboration of an educational product - a proposal of didactic sequence destined to the Teaching of Mathematics in Elementary and Middle levels for the community schools and region, this proposal is in the Appendix to this work

Do picadeiro ao céu : o riso no teatro de Ariano Suassuna

The analysis of this work seeks to investigate the meaning of the laughter in the paraibano writer Ariano Suassuna s armorial theater. The study departs, firstly, from an argumentation which centers its content in the theory of the many theoreticians of the question: Henri Bergson, Vladimir Propp, Jolles, Freud, Bakhtin. The essence of the laughter in Suassuna and its esthetic relations are commented, because those elements are responsible for the strength of the literary text. On the condition of scholar about Esthetic and Art History, Suassuna always puts the methods of the estheticism in favor of the loud laughter bearing in mind that it is a source of improvisation, i.e., it may have many senses depending on what it is pretended to transmit to the reader/viewer. The laughter is a mask which is changed to each new situation, representing that way own human condition. Because the theater is an art subjected to recreation, the laughter also is. And because it is a great party where other arts (the dance, the music, mamulengo e the bumba-meu-boi) are present, united to compose a confluent and hybrid language, the meaning of hilarity during the popular celebrations is studied mainly those that happened in Medieval Europe. Thus, in the second part, the basis of the research is the Russian Mikhail Bakhtin s theory that helps to link Suassuna s laughter to the popular party, showing the language used in them and the jokes that give life to the joy of the folk. Soon after, the importance of Suassuna s laughter to the Brazilian Culture, is examined making a reflection about its function at the sociocultural context of the country

Uma proposta de ensino e aprendizagem de Língua Inglesa integrada ao uso das TICS para o desenvolvimento da autonomia dos aprendizes

This study focuses on the teaching and learning of English based on a new theoretical perspective concerning the Zone of Proximal Development (ZPD), which points to the apprehension of metacognitive processes as the way to reach learning autonomy. The theoretical set underline this study is those of a new pedagogy based on the symbiosis of Bruner‟s (2002) and Freire‟s (2009) concepts and in the metacognitive theory. In a social context dominated by the Communication and Information Technologies (CIT), the integration between teacher and learners with the support of the internet has been used as the way to operationalize this new emergent proposal of the theoretical perspectives. The analyses have been conducted through Systemic and Integral Action Research. The results at the end of this study corroborate our hypothesis that the enlargement of spontaneous knowledge of the learners can facilitate the understanding of scientific concepts, stimulating their metacognition and thus promoting their autonomy.

Modos de ler, formas de escrever a literatura enquanto objeto da ficção de Enrique Vila-Matas

Este trabajo busca analizar cómo algunos aspectos presentes en la obra de ficción del escritor catalán Enrique Vila-Matas permiten pensar las prácticas de la escritura literaria contemporánea. A partir de una forma híbrida que reconsidera las relaciones tanto entre los géneros como entre los discursos crítico y de ficción, la obra del autor se propone reflexionar sobre sus propias posibilidades en el contexto sociocultural contemporáneo. De este modo, a través de una ficción que muchas veces adquiere los atributos del ensayo, Vila-Matas trae al centro de sus enredos la discusión de cuestiones relacionadas con los impases de una escritura que vuelve su atención para el destino de una tradición literaria desvinculada de los preceptos meramente mercadológicos contemporáneos. Su manera crítica de abordar la literatura y la experimentación en busca de nuevas posibilidades permite asociarlo tanto a Laurence Sterne como al proyecto literario de Jorge Luis Borges. Estos autores tienen propuestas que tratan de superar los límites del texto, ya que ahí está el deseo de acogerse a la ficción para demostrar la inestabilidad de los elementos de una cultura, apropiándose y desestabilizando los discursos y las claras distinciones entre los saberes. En este sentido, las diversas formas en que Vila- Matas se apropia de los textos de otros y construye una obra de carácter fuertemente intertextual denuncian jerarquizaciones y modos de circulación de textos que permiten aproximarse de la tensión existente entre temas como influencia, citación, prácticas de lectura y escritura

A mídia dos outros somos nós: a experiência audiovisual do Ponto de Cultura Cinema para Todos

This research aims to identify the process of appropriation of audio visual (in digital video) for collective symbolic production (participatory video practice that expresses popular culture) in a socio-cultural context where the minorities are. Therefore, we based this study on the students‟ experience of the film and video workshops held by Cinema para Todos (Culture Point Cine for All), in Natal, RN. Culture Point is the basis of the project Programa Nacional de Cultura, Educação e Cidadania Cultura Viva (National Program of Culture, Education and Citizenship - Living Culture) of the Brazilian Ministry of Culture. In 2010, the Cine for All developed three film and video workshops in the state of Rio Grande do Norte (Northeastern of Brazil), in the municipalities of Açu, Lajes and São Gonçalo do Amarante, within a public policy project of socio-cultural inclusion. These three workshops are the focus of this empirical investigation. To support the analysis of this research we consider that the spaces of workshops are sites of the social practices origin, assuming they show the development of the changes of actions that generate new practices. In this socio-cultural context the students as interlocutors process the communicative culture mediation, where come from the logics of action (using digital video) to become a mediatic practice (video auto ethnographic). With the overall goal set and the field of investigative action delimited we considered the methodology of case study suitable for the observation of the object, because it is a phenomenon of modernity, occurring in a context of real life and with little or no control over events. Participant observation and interviews was also applied to this case study. The analytical theoretical support comes from the notion of mediation by Jesús Martín-Barbero and the concept of habitus by Pierre Bourdieu. The research found that a new way of communicating has been developing by this social group, and this reflects the technological change experienced by them. The auto ethnographic videos, short movies, reveal an allegorical trial of the mainstream media, because while they use the mainstream format, they rework the aesthetic, but without revising the history, in fact they proposing to retell the history of themselves full of colorful details and with richness of their forgotten popular culture.

A televisão e a (re)construção do imaginário : as telenovelas e sua ifluência socioespacial em Caicó-RN

Under the perspective of the Cultural Geografhy, this dissetation thoretically discusses about the socio-spatial interference that the Rede Globo's soapoperas have in the construction of the collective imagination of the people who lines in the city of Caicó - RN. Here the social and spatial impacts produced by Rede Globo's main fiction program, the soapoperas, on the collective imagination of the inhabitants of Caicó are the main interest. The main argument here is that this TV program has an anormons influence on the evereday life of the people who live in Caicó and this influence ends up modifying their social, spatial and cultural pratices. This influence has been also working as the main force producing a real spatial impact. In this sense "new spaces of dialogue" are constructed through the influence of television. The main understandig is then that the soapoperas, at least within the context of Caicó, are a great force constructing social and spatial collective imagination of this city's inhabitants.
