D. José da Costa Nunes - A Patriarch who cared for more than souls: A case of caesaro-papism in Portuguese India, 1942-1953

É pouco conhecido que durante vários séculos e até ao fim do colonialismo português no Oriente seguiu-se a prática de enviar bispos açorianos. Eram brancos e não tinham outra língia e cultura que não fossem portuguesas. Eram critérios suficientes para serem preferidos a candidatos asiáticos mesmo com formação superior e conhecedores das línguas e culturas dos seus povos. Desconfiava-se da sua lealdade e patriotismo. Isto era particularmente crucial quando se iniciaram movimentos independentistas na Ásia. D. José da Costa Nunes é estudado neste ensaio como um paradigma desta política colonial.

A era da frustração: melancolia, contra-utopia e violência em Clube da luta

Este ensaio procura traçar um panorama das polêmicas travadas em torno do filme Clube da luta, abordando algumas temáticas que se interpenetram com a questão da violência na sociedade contemporânea. A partir daí procura estabelecer relações não somente com a estética fílmica produzida pelo diretor David Fincher, mas também com as possíveis perspectivas que este filme pode constituir na problematização mais acurada do que Zizek denominou de "desertificaçao do real".

Utopia e sociabilidade: imagens de sofrimento e caridade no Juazeiro do Norte

Neste artigo, ofereço uma discussão de como imagens de sofrimento e caridade estão relacionadas com imagens de uma sociedade ideal numa comunidade de penitentes do Juazeiro do Norte: os ''Ave de Jesus''. Através dos significados de sofrimento, pobreza e mendicância, estarei explorando a maneira como os Ave de Jesus criam uma sociabilidade baseada na generosidade, na hospitalidade e no compartilhamento, por meio da qual realizam uma espera messiânica. A análise dos dados etnográficos insere-se na discussão clássica sobre as bases da vida social, tomando-se criticamente a literatura antropológica tradicional sobre dádiva e reciprocidade.

More than maternal sensitivity shapes attachment : infant coping and temperament

The aim of this longitudinal studywas to investigate the effect of a set of factors from multiple levels of influence: infant temperament, infant regulatory behavior, and maternal sensitivity on infant’s attachment. Our sample consisted of 48 infants born prematurely and their mothers. At 1 and 3 months of age, mothers described their infants’behavior using the Escala de Temperamento do Beb´e. At 3 months of age, infants’ capacity to regulate stress was evaluated during Tronick’s Face-to-Face Still-Face (FFSF) paradigm. At 9 months of age, mothers’ sensitivity was evaluated during free play using the CARE-Index. At 12 months of age, infants’ attachment security was assessed during Ainsworth’s Strange Situation. A total of 16 infants were classified as securely attached, 17 as insecure-avoidant, and 15 as insecure-resistant. Mothers of securely attached infantswere more likely than mothers of insecure infants to describe their infants as less difficult and to be more sensitive to their infants in free play. In turn, secure infants exhibited more positive responses during the Still-Face. Infants classified as insecureavoidant were more likely to self-comfort during the Still-Face and had mothers who were more controlling during free play. Insecure-resistant exhibited higher levels of negative arousal during the Still-Face and had mothers who were more unresponsive in free play. These findings show that attachment quality is influenced bymultiple factors, including infant temperament, coping behavior, and maternal sensitivity.

Are severe occlusal problems more frequent in permanent than deciduous dentition?

OBJECTIVE: To determine the prevalence and severity of occlusal problems in populations at the ages of deciduous and permanent dentition and to carry out a meta-analysis to estimate the weighted odds ratio for occlusal problems comparing both groups. METHODS: Data of a probabilistic sample (n=985) of schoolchildren aged 5 and 12 from an epidemiological study in the municipality of São Paulo, Brazil, were analyzed using univariate logistic regression (MLR). Results of cross-sectional study data published in the last 70 years were examined in the meta-analysis. RESULTS: The prevalence of occlusal problems increased from 49.0% (95% CI =47.4%-50.6%) in the deciduous dentition to 71.3% (95% CI =70.3%-72.3%) in the permanent dentition (p<0.001). Dentition was the only variable significantly associated to the severity of malocclusion (OR=1.87; 95% CI =1.43-2.45; p<0.001). The variables sex, type of school and ethnic group were not significant. The meta-analysis showed that a weighted OR of 1.95 (1.91; 1.98) when compared the second dentition period with deciduous and mixed dentition. CONCLUSIONS: In planning oral health services, some activities are indicated to reduce the proportion of moderate/severe malocclusion to levels that are socially more acceptable and economically sustainable.

Energy resources management for more sustainable distribution systems: an intelligent approach

Energy Resources Management can play a very relevant role in future power systems in SmartGrid context, with high penetration of distributed generation and storage systems. This paper deals with the importance of resources management in incident situation. The system to consider a high penetration of distributed generation, demand response, storage units and network reconfiguration. A case study evidences the advantages of using a flexible SCADA to control the energy resources in incident situation.
