The Social City : Middle-way approaches to housing and sub-urban golvernmentality in southern Stockholm, 1900-1945

This dissertation deals with the period bridging the era of extreme housing shortages in Stockholm on the eve of industrialisation and the much admired programmes of housing provision that followed after the second world war, when Stockholm district Vällingby became an example for underground railway-serviced ”new towns”. It is argued that important changes were made in the housing and town planning policy in Stockholm in this period that paved the way for the successful ensuing period. Foremost among these changes was the uniquely developed practice of municipal leaseholding with the help of site leasehold rights (Erbbaurecht). The study is informed by recent developments in Foucauldian social research, which go under the heading ’governmentality’. Developments within urban planning are understood as different solutions to the problem of urban order. To a large extent, urban and housing policies changed during the period from direct interventions into the lives of inhabitants connected to a liberal understanding of housing provision, to the building of a disciplinary city, and the conduct of ’governmental’ power, building on increased activity on behalf of the local state to provide housing and the integration and co-operation of large collectives. Municipal leaseholding was a fundamental means for the implementation of this policy. When the new policies were introduced, they were limited to the outer parts of the city and administered by special administrative bodies. This administrative and spatial separation was largely upheld throughout the period, and represented as the parallel building of a ’social’ outer city, while things in the inner ’mercantile’ city proceeded more or less as before. This separation was founded in a radical difference in land holding policy: while sites in the inner city were privatised and sold at market values, land in the outer city was mostly leasehold land, distributed according to administrative – and thus politically decided – priorities. These differences were also understood and acknowledged by the inhabitants. Thorough studies of the local press and the organisational life of the southern parts of the outer city reveals that the local identity was tightly connected with the representations connected to the different land holding systems. Inhabitants in the south-western parts of the city, which in this period was still largely built on private sites, displayed a spatial understanding built on the contradictions between centre and periphery. The inhabitants living on leaseholding sites, however, showed a clear understanding of their position as members of model communities, tightly connected to the policy of the municipal administration. The organisations on leaseholding sites also displayed a deep co-operation with the administration. As the analyses of election results show, the inhabitants also seemed to have felt a greater degree of integration with the society at large, than people living in other parts of the city. The leaseholding system in Stockholm has persisted until today and has been one of the strongest in the world, although the local neo-liberal politicians are currently disposing it off.

Nuevas representaciones de infancia en las escuelas argentinas : un recorrido por los libros de lectura de principios del Siglo XX (1900-1945)

A mediados de la década del 30 en Buenos Aires se produce un quiebre: los libros de lectura para enseñanza primaria, que en los comienzos del siglo XX no habían tenido otra finalidad que la de instruir con textos moralizantes al “argentino del futuro", cambian su orientación meramente didáctica. El juego y el despliegue de la fantasía, tan negados en los años anteriores, comienzan a tener cabida en los textos y paratextos de los libros escolares. Las ilustraciones, la selección de lecturas y los nuevos motivos que se incorporan manifiestan un importante cambio en la enseñanza de la lengua y la literatura. A través de un estudio comparativo de los textos y paratextos de los libros publicados a principios de siglo con los publicados hacia los años 30 y 40, intentaremos demostrar la hipótesis de que ya en la década del 30 se percibe en las lecturas escolares un cambio radical.

A política brasileira de expansão cultural no Estado Novo (1937-45)

A presente dissertação se propõe a analisar a política brasileira de propaganda e difusão cultural entre os anos de 1937 e 1945, isto é, durante o regime autoritário do Estado Novo. Como objetos de estudo, elegemos as atividades do Departamento de Imprensa e Propaganda e da Divisão de Cooperação Intelectual do Itamaraty, com ênfase no uso dos principais veículos de comunicação da época. De modo complementar, abordamos a influência da Política de Boa Vizinhança nas Américas e as viagens ao estrangeiro de artistas e intelectuais nacionais. Nosso objetivo é provar que, nesse período, o Brasil desenvolveu uma política sistemática de promoção da cultura nacional, visando exportar a imagem de um país em ascensão imagem, essa, correspondente às aspirações brasileiras de desenvolvimento e afirmação junto às grandes nações do mundo.

Approaches of the Action Art in early childhood Education. Some other ways of interrelation within the educational system

This Artistic research project was created in order to test how to put into practice approaches between Contemporary Art and University daily life. In this particular case, between Action Art and the students at the Early Childhood Education University in Alicante. The generalized lack of awareness about changes which took place in Art in the XX century, demonstrates the lack of interest on the part of students about Contemporary Art, and therefore, it is still remarkable, the distance between Art and life. Thus, as artists and teachers, the chance to carry out specific experiments is open within everyday educational life. Therefore, through Action Art a communicative interaction is possible to be achieved as an active learning process and, in such way, change the usual existing relationships in a predetermine context, creating this way, future Contemporary Art consumers and transmitters.

La intervención educativa en el tratamiento de los trastornos del lenguaje en el siglo XX.

Se analiza la evolución de la logopedia en el S. XX. Se diferencian cuatro períodos: 1. los años formativos (1900-1945) 2. El período de procesamiento y el de era lingüística (1945-1965) 3. La era lingüística (1965-1975) 4. La revolución pragmática. A partir de 1975 comenzó un cambio desde la definición del lenguaje, pasando de sus aspectos formales, y en su contenido a definirlo en términos de uso. Esta evolución comenzó a fraguarse con la teoría de los actos del habla que puso de relieve el aspecto instrumental de la comunicación que Lois Bloom y Margaret Lahey denominaron 'uso del lenguaje'.
