Melodrama em falso e pedagogia social de Capitu, de Luiz Fernando Carvalho: a adaptação de Dom Casmurro para o audiovisual em três lições

Some esthetical particularities of Luiz Fernando Carvalho’s micro-series reveal, in the nineteenth century Brazil, the capacity of the literary and audiovisual discourse to represent some singularities of the Brazilian social life from the past, as well as pointing to existential problems of the class representative that leads the plot, instigating reflections in the present. The treatment offered to the class struggle by the Machadian narrative and by the Rede Globo’s adaptation, just as the way in which the existential drama is expounded, disclose a kind of reception among readers/viewers which is capable of reviewing the historical past in times that ask for such a revision, even though the television series bets on the non-conventional. Machado presented the tension between representation and truth (as well as between emotion production and reflection) with the transfiguration of the tragic pathos and the mobilization of the patriarchal figure to the melodramatic bias. Although increased by the irony orchestrated by the scenic elements, in the audiovisual version such Machadian solutions would be apt to lose their strength to unmask the social subjects; on the other side, the intensification of the melodrama can make evident what Machado disguised with less obvious narrative intentions.

O Serviço Social contracenando com a arte para desvelar a realidade

Trabajo social : intervención con familias y ciudadanía

A partir de la pregunta ¿cómo se puede en este aquí y ahora profesional visivilizar a los sujetos y a las familias, en un camino dirigido hacia la construcción ciudadana?, se procura la búsqueda de algunas líneas de acción o respuestas alternativas que orienten posibles pautas de cambio desde las políticas sociales actuales y la intervención de Trabajo Social. La reflexión acerca de las familias como "la más pequeña de las Democracias" y de una nueva relación entre el estado, la sociedad y las familias impulsa la construcción de un proyecto social que recupere el sentido colectivo y la consideración de la voz de las niñas, los niños y las familias como sujetos históricos, sociales y con derechos ejercibles y exigibles.

O paradoxo da cidade monitorada : vigilância limitada e espaços públicos fragilizados a partir do estudo do sistema das câmeras do município de Vila Velha - ES

A dissertação aborda a fragilização dos espaços públicos num contexto de utilização de câmeras de vigilância, temática que será problematizada a partir da vigilância exercida pelas câmeras do município de Vila Velha – ES. Partimos da hipótese de que vivemos cercados por objetos técnicos que continuamente produzem informações sobre os sujeitos sociais e os seus espaços como forma de controle. As câmeras representam o exemplo mais conhecido desses objetos, embora sejam apresentadas pelos discursos das administrações públicas como ferramentas de auxílio à segurança. Utilizando como metodologia a observação participante para acompanhamento do trabalho realizado “por trás” das câmeras, concluímos que uma série de fatores desmistificam esses discursos: as câmeras que não são monitoradas, a ausência de manutenção dos equipamentos do sistema, os baixos salários e as condições trabalhistas daqueles que operam as câmeras, a ausência de articulação com os demais setores da prefeitura, a falta de credibilidade das câmeras com a polícia, etc. Por outro lado, ao fazermos um trabalho “na frente” das câmeras, observando o cotidiano de três áreas vigiadas nos bairros Praia da Costa, Glória e Riviera da Barra, bem como entrevistando transeuntes, moradores e comerciantes, concluímos que a maneira surpreendentemente indiferente com que as pessoas lidam com a vigilância é alimentada quando descobrimos que elas não oferecem a segurança pretendida. Se as câmeras não auxiliam a segurança pública, a sua utilização tem um efeito perverso na fragilização dos espaços públicos de Vila Velha, considerando que a vigilância representa ameaças potenciais e reais às condições que o pressupõem: a pluralidade e a liberdade, pois as câmeras atualizam um estado de vigilância permanente alimentando o estigma sobre determinados grupos sociais, que, por sua vez, são os alvos favoritos da vigilância, o que permite às câmeras, ainda, a potencial função de controle socioespacial direto (função admitida inclusive pelos cidadãos entrevistados) sobre os espaços vigiados; e a individualidade dos cidadãos, que é acintosamente violada. As câmeras, portanto, ao pretenderem garantir qualidade de vida à população (oferecendo segurança), produzem o efeito exatamente inverso

Alguns aspetos psicológicos do grupo de crianças no jardim de infância

Baseado na análise qualitativa de processos observados em grupos de crianças, este artigo dá ênfase à importância dos pares dos grupos de crianças, não só para a formação das posteriores competências de relacionamento em grupo, mas também para a capacidade fundamental de sentir empatia e para o desenvolvimento cognitivo. O meio de expressão mais importante nos grupos de crianças é o desempenho de papéis (o faz de conta). Mesmo tratando-se de situações de fantasia, as crianças também aproveitam estas situações para representar a dinâmica familiar e os papéisdos sexos, usando o grupo para se determinarem como sujeitos sociais. No que diz respeito ao desenvolvimento cognitivo, aprendem a movimentar-se entre as esferas da brincadeira, nãobrincadeira e metacomunicação. É aqui demonstrado em que idades as crianças possuem a capacidade para trabalhar com grupos de outras crianças, durante um longo período de tempo, e como é que os educadores as podem ajudar a desenvolver esta capacidade.

Deciding where to belong: gender differences in educational trajectories and migration in a rural Spanish town

From an anthropological perspective, formal post-secondary schooling is not an abstractentity with an intrinsic value that everyone finds desirable, but rather one alternative among many that young people evaluate from their different positions in the social field. The problem discussed in this paper is the diverging life trajectories that young men and women in a concrete rural context, at the end of the 20th century, shape for themselves at the ages of 14-16, a moment of decision created by national legislation regarding mandatory education (LGE, 1970, General Education Law, and LOGSE, 1990, General Organic Law of the Education System). Despite a strong cultural norm of equal inheritance divided among all children, male and female, and despite the equal educational opportunities provided by the Spanish State, different meanings of possession and use-rights over land and the resulting culturally accepted gendered division of work converge to orient men and women differently towards post-secondary schooling. Observation of the age, gender, and civil status structure of the population led to the preliminary query: Why do men and women, in this town, behave differently with respect to migration and marriage? The main hypothesis was that women’s longer school trajectories and resulting migration and men’s anchoring in the town and their higher rates of celibacy were not drastic changes in values, in the positional-relational sense of Bourdieu (1988, 2002), but the current outcome of previously existing dissimilar relations to property that produce dissimilar mobility. Through their schooling and work choices, young men and women, at very early ages, locate themselves in, or decide to belong to, different contexts that later reveal very different possibilities of finding marriage partners. This paper is based on an ethnographic study of a small rural town (302 inhabitants in 1950; 193 in 2000) near Leon. Although this paper deals with the situation in the final decades of the 20th century, we must also consider the first half of the century, where some elements that shape this situation have their roots. Fieldwork was carried out between 1988 and 2001, in periods of differing length and intensity. The social subjects discussed here are the domestic unit and its component members. They were studied in conjunction, analyzing the life-trajectory decisions of specific persons in the framework of the domestic unit and the relations among people and property which comprise it. The tried-and-true methods of ethnographic research –participant observation, interviews, and life-histories, etc.- were employed. Archival research was also important for producing demographic data. Demographic analysis, the analysis of the composition and transformation of domestic units, and the creation of life trajectories were among the principal techniques used. The theoretical analysis was oriented by Bourdieu’s (2002) framework of the social field, habitus, and difference.

The ability to innovate in international entrepreneurship

ABSTRACT In this article, the purpose was to analyze the ability to innovate in international entrepreneurship. Thus, a qualitative study of multiple cases was developed. Data was collected mainly by semi-structured interviews with 30 social subjects, and ATLAS.ti software supported content analysis. We observed that the entrepreneurs' innovative actions were focused on the product and production. As a result, it was found that the presence of the ability to innovate was intermittent throughout the internationalization process, except in only one of the companies, where it occurred continuously.
