O pão e a festa: patrimônio imaterial e turismo em Juiz de Fora

Esta pesquisa tem por objetivo analisar os pedidos de registro do Pão Alemão e da Deutsches Fest como bens culturais de natureza imaterial de Juiz de Fora, sendo elementos representantes da cultura e da tradição dos imigrantes alemães que fazem parte da história da cidade. A Festa Alemã ou Deutsches Fest é, atualmente, um dos maiores eventos do calendário cultural e turístico de Juiz de Fora, cidade localizada na Zona da Mata do Estado de Minas Gerais. Realizada no bairro Borboleta, antiga Colônia Alemã, a festa foi criada em 1969, por descendentes dos alemães que imigraram para o município, em meados do século XIX. O Pão Alemão, encontrado nas festas e casas do bairro, além de ser o principal elo de preservação da memória construída por esses descendentes alemães, tornou-se importante elemento simbólico, enquanto modo de preparo da legítima culinária alemã. Pão e Festa fazem parte de uma tradição constituída, ao longo de anos, para afirmar a identidade do grupo, proporcionando-lhe ampliar sua participação nos âmbitos políticos e econômicos locais.

Drifters, Party Boys and Incumbents: The life patterns of male street-based sex workers

This paper is based on a qualitative study of male street-based prostitution. It suggests that the street-based sector is more varied, with sellers adopting a wider range of working practices, than is commonly acknowledged in the literature on male prostitution. Drawing on data from Manchester, England I identify a number of ‘life patterns’ among male street sellers that reflect varied working practices based on issues around rational decision-making and the sex worker’s relationship to place and environment. The discussion has implications for urban policies around street-based sex work but also for a more general understanding of male sex work in international and comparative perspective.

Svodboda party - the new phenomenon on the Ukrainian right-wing scene. OSW Commentary No. 56, 2011-07-04

Even though the national-level political scene in Ukraine is dominated by the Party of Regions, the west of the country has seen a progressing increase in the activity of the Svoboda (Freedom) party, a group that combines participation in the democratically elected local government of Eastern Galicia with street actions, characteristic of anti-system groups. This party has brought a new quality to the Ukrainian nationalist movement, as it refers to the rhetoric of European anti-liberal and neo-nationalist movements, and its emergence is a clear response to public demand for a group of this sort. The increase in its popularity plays into the hands of the Party of Regions, which is seeking to weaken the more moderate opposition parties (mainly the Yulia Tymoshenko Bloc). However, Svoboda retains its independence from the ruling camp. This party, in all likelihood, will become a permanent and important player in Ukrainian political life, although its influence may be restricted to Eastern Galicia. Svoboda is determined to fight the tendencies in Ukrainian politics and the social sphere which it considers pro-Russian. Its attitude towards Russia and Russians, furthermore, is unambiguously hostile. In the case of Poland, it reduces mutual relations almost exclusively to the historical aspects, strongly criticising the commemoration of the victims of the Ukrainian Insurgent Army’s (UPA) crimes. This may cause tension in Polish-Ukrainian relations, where they are affected by decisions made by local governments controlled by the Svoboda Party.
