Thesis (Nucl.E. and S.M.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Nuclear Engineering, 1998.<br>Includes bibliographical references.<br>The steady improvement of US Nuclear Utility generation capability observed over the past two decades has recently halted and somewhat degraded. For the industry to resume its upward trend in performance a detailed examination must be performed of current performance and new methods developed to continue the improvement. A detailed study of Boiling Water Reactor, Class IV (BWR/4) performance over the past five years was conducted to gain insight to the nature of lost generation capability and develop a methodology to improve capability. Extensive electronic NRC records were used in conjunction with detailed power plant records and engineering experience at PECO Energy's Limerick Generating Station and Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station for this research. Administrative or regulatory shutdowns within the study dominated the lost generation capability and detracted from the goal of analyzing equipment reliability. Nine of two hundred thirty five shutdowns were therefore limited to maximum impact of 30 days lost generation. Balance of Plant system failures were found to initiate 69% of the occurrences of lost generation capability and account for 59% of the capability loss. The failures of these systems were found to be infrequent events which correlated poorly to the aggregate industry experience. Approximately fifty percent of the forced outages were the result of equipment related failures such as weak design or worn parts with the remaining fifty percent the result of human related failures. Only 19% of the failures were noted to be the result of component age related failures while 31% of the failures were related to poor equipment design. The time frame of forced outages with in operating cycles was additionally reviewed. Failures were found to be more frequent in the early phase of the operating cycle following start up from a refueling and approximately 400 to 550 days after start up. The impact of these failures was not great enough to affect the steady state cumulative capability factor of the aggregate BWR/4 utility achieved after one year of operation. Individual utility sites were found to have opposing strong and weak periods of performance within their operating cycles. The loss of generation capacity taken for planned maintenance outages and on line maintenance for minor equipment problems was not found to have a significant impact on aggregate BWR/4 performance. For plants not involve in lengthy shutdowns, the strongest impacts on cumulative capacity were forced outages, initial start up and coast down. The unpredictable and design nature of system failures necessitates a structured effort to improve the combined performance of all systems at a utility. Balance of Plant systems were found to all have a 25% probability of causing a single forced outage lasting slightly less than 5 days in length. The infrequent nature of significant failures necessitates a broad based communication between utilities to maintain an adequate level of awareness of system vulnerabilities and possible improvements. Two specific sites examined had opposing and repeatable strong and weak cycle performance traits. The unique nature of site performance demonstrates the impact that improved communications between utilities could have on transferring strengths and diminishing weaknesses thus improving overall utility performance.<br>by David Lester Brodeur.<br>Nucl.E.and S.M.

Thesis, University of Canterbury. Department of Political Science, 2004. http://hdl.handle.net/10092/3826.
Full textAbstract:
During periods of official nationalism in Thailand, the Thai media played a significant role in promoting government policy. The Thai media during those periods was a government orientated enterprise. However, the Thai parliament approved a new constitution in 1997 which aims to minimise state control over the media. It is for this reason that this thesis chose to study current events and the current situation. Once the media was opened up, the patterns of ownership started to change. The media, post 1997, began to change from a government orientated enterprise towards a market-orientated private enterprise. This thesis investigates the interaction between media and nationalism in Thailand. It looks at the relationship between media owners and political leaders in general. This thesis also looks at the signs, symbols, costumes, and messages that generate nationalistic feelings among audiences. This research was carried out by analysing the film contents. This analysis of content is used to demonstrate the hypothesis, which states that the new patterns of ownership of the media have led to new techniques for shaping nationalism. In order to do so, this thesis employs a media and nationalism framework which is created by using numerous theories on media and nationalism. The results have indicated that, although the primary motive of film-making may now be turning a profit, films which aim to promote the nationalism or political agendas still exist. It appears in several case studies that the private media owners and the political leaders share common interests. The filmmakers do not hesitate to use the symbols, cultures, and traditions, which are invented by the leaders. Symbols that represent power and legitimacy of the political leaders are promoted by an attempt of the filmmaker to persuade audiences that those practices and tradition, and by extension, the leaders are righteous. Individual films target different classes in Thai society, which vary by their beliefs, culture, and practices. The filmmakers are either making the film according to the culture of those classes to strengthen the nationalistic awareness from the audiences, or they are using their medium to persuade the audiences to accept their class values. Either way, it can be demonstrated that since the end of the period of official nationalism, nationalism is still promoted through film. This media support of political agendas can be seen as the new style to promote nationalism.

Full textAbstract:
Research of a wide range of primary sources informs this work, including hitherto unstudied local union records, oral testimony, contemporary newspapers, government and employer reports. Conclusions reached in this dissertation are that while the founders of the local trade union movement shared a vision of improving the lot of workers in their employment and in the wider social context, and they
endeavoured to establish effective structures and organisation to this end, their efforts were of mixed success. They succeeded eminently in improving and protecting the employment conditions of workers to contemporary expectations through effective exploitation of political and institutional channels and through competent and conservative local leadership. However, the additional and loftier goal of creating a better life for workers outside the workplace through local combined union action were much less successful, foiled not only by overwhelming economic difficulties, but also by a local sense of working-class consciousness
which was muted by the particular social and cultural context of Rockhampton.

Full textAbstract:
This thesis provides an analysis of communism in Britain between 1927 and 1932. In these years, the Communist Party of Great Britain (CPGB) embarked upon a 'new period' of political struggle around the concept of class against class. The increasingly draconian measures of the Labour Party and trade union bureaucracy between 1924 and 1927 significantly restricted the scope of communist influence within the mainstream labour movement. As such, the CPGB - in accordance with the Communist International - attempted to establish an 'independent leadership' of the working class. The decline in Communist Party membership that accompanied the 'New Line' has led historians to associate an apparent collapse in CPGB influence with the political perspective of class against class. Similarly, the CPGB's initial resistance to the line has been interpreted as evidence of the Party's willing subservience to Moscow. In this thesis, such a portrayal of communist motive and experience will be challenged. Instead, a more multifaceted approach will endeavour to show that: i) the 'left turn' of 1927- 28 complemented attitudes evident in Britain since at least 1926; ii) the simultaneous collapse in CPGB influence related primarily to the structural changes afflicting Britain (and the British labour movement) between the wars; iii) the period was a difficult but not completely disastrous time for the Party. Rather, the years should be seen as a transitional period, in which the focus of communist activity moved out of the workplace and onto the streets. Thus, the Party's successful mobilisation of the unemployed, and the development of an idiosyncratic communist culture, were 'positive' factors. And finally; iv) that the political line pursued by the CPGB was more flexible and changeable than has hitherto been recognised. The Party continually modified its political strategy and objectives throughout the Third Period. Moreover, the 'sectarian excesses' that characterised class against class were due in part to the will of the Party rank and file. Many in the Party embraced the exclusivity of the New Line, and were responsible for interpreting the policy 'on the ground.'

L'echelon inferieur des fonctionnaires britanniques est devenu de plus en plus militant dans les annees 1970 et 1980.

The thesis also examines the role of the union leadership in stopping militancy, the meaning of internal faction fighting, and the divisions and unities between men and women in these jobs

McIlwaine, Catherine Julia. "Gender, ethnicity and the local labour market in Limon, Costa Rica." Thesis, London School of Economics and Political Science (University of London), 1993. http://etheses.lse.ac.uk/1995/.
Full textAbstract:
The conceptual and empirical analysis of the interrelationship between gender and ethnicity has been largely neglected in the social sciences in general, and in Latin America in particular. The current research examines this relationship in the context of the local labour market of the Caribbean port of Limon, Costa Rica. The presence of a significant Afro-Caribbean minority along with the predominant white/mestizo population in the city, allows for the analysis of the distribution of ethnic and gender groups in the local economy, and the ways in which gender and ethnicity intersect with one another to produce particular patterns of employment differentiation. The above interrelations are explored with special reference to labour market segmentation and segregation. The approach adopted comprises the synthesis of three perspectives, the first of which is concerned with tracing the historical development of the region and city as an enclave economy. The second perspective deals with the labour market itself where current patterns of labour demand also influence segmentation and segregation. The third examines the contemporary household level, where factors such as household structure and gender ideologies (both of which may be mediated by ethnicity) operate to shape the supply of labour. Combination of the above three elements in the context of an holistic approach indicates that the configuration of employment differentiation in the enclave economy of Limon departs from more generally found patterns of vertical segmentation in gender and ethnic terms. Instead, horizontal distribution prevails in which Afro-Caribbean women do not occupy the most subordinate position in the labour market. Explanations for this lie in the historical evolution of the labour market and the dynamics of interaction between contemporary factors operating within the spheres of both household and workplace. A survey of 250 randomly-sampled households was conducted in three low-income settlements in Limon using structured and semi-structured questionnaires and targeting both male and female respondents. An employer survey was also conducted of 17 firms in the city, including large and small-scale enterprises. The principal conclusion is that a reconsideration of conventional conceptual approaches to labour markets is necessary in order to fully recognise the importance of the interaction between gender and ethnicity in employment differentiation.

Full textAbstract:
This thesis describes and interprets the historical development of the legal regulation of the Ugandan trade union movement and assesses the relative importance of law in the determination of the character of trade union organisation in the post-colonial period 1962-1987. Chapter I defines the scope of the thesis and identifies the theoretical framework and analytical themes on which the thesis is based. Chapter II deals with the colonial foundations of the post-colonial legislation with which the thesis is mainly concerned. Chapters III, IV and V cover the period 1962-1987 whereby we analyse, first, the class and political character of the legal changes that take place between 1963-1976. Secondly, we examine the practical operation and impact of the law vis-a-vis the role of state policy and behaviour, the ideological outlook adopted by the trade unions, union constitutional structures and leadership struggles in the formation of the character of contemporary trade unionism in Uganda. The thesis treats law as a historical category and takes as its starting point the Marxist conceptualisations which view law variously as an instrument of the dominant class, as ideology or which attempt a materialist analysis. From these perspectives we examine the processes of class struggle through which the specific legislation came into being and more crucially the importance of the balance of class forces in the practical utilisation of legal rights or restrictions. We conclude in Chapter VI that while the economic parameters in which trade unions exist and operate are important determinants of union character, within those parameters the character of the state has proved to be most crucial. But at the level of the unions themselves, the ideology they adopt, their constitutional structures and leadership struggles, together, have created the contemporary undemocratic, economistic-apolitical and technocratic aspects of trade unionism in Uganda. However law has been important for the unions to the extent that it has been mainly a source of legitimation for their autonomous existence, most of the time, in their chequered history. The analysis of the historical and class origins and nature of the law regulating trade union organisation and the assessment we make of the role of law vis-a-vis the role played by other factors in determining the character of trade union organisation in Uganda is, in our view, an original contribution to the knowledge of industrial relations law in Uganda. The construction and interpretation of the historical phases through which both trade union law and trade union organisation have passed is likewise an original contribution to the knowledge of trade unionism in Uganda.

Full textAbstract:
The field covered contains the major phases of British socialist theatre between 1930 and 1979. It focuses on the issues raised by the concept of socialist theatre, such as those of class, politics and dramatic form, in order to discuss the relationships between agendas of political tasks, the development of suitable forms for their dramatic expression, and the nature of the audiences which have been attracted. The discussion draws on a range of contemporary sources which include unpublished scripts and other material, together with oral evidence from some practitioners. The historical episodes covered begin with the career of the Workers' Theatre Movement and its successors the Unity Theatres and the Left Book Club Theatre Guild in the 1930s. It then examines how this was continued during the Second World War; and how it was affected by the political and other circumstances of the immediate post-war years. Finally it deals with the revival of socialist theatre in Britain during the 19705. The thesis is intended to contribute to the understanding of the relations between theatre, politics and the labour movement by means of an historical perspective on concrete examples. It examines the extent to which the different examples achieved the objectives they set themselves, and in so doing discusses the circumstances which have made successful socialist theatre possible in Britain during this period.

Full textAbstract:
Little has been written about the Territorial Air Force (TAF) as a voluntary military organisation and no sustained analysis of its recruitment and social composition undertaken. Made up of three different parts, the Auxiliary Air Force (AAF), the Special Reserve (SR) and the Royal Air Force Volunteer Reserve (RAFVR), these three separate and different groups have not featured significantly in existing literature. Current historiography of the AAF and SR is dominated by the experiences of 600 and 601 Squadrons based in London and presents a popular image of a gentleman's flying club, whilst that of the RAFVR presents an image of a much more egalitarian institution, intended to be a citizens’ air force. This thesis presents new and detailed research into the recruitment and social backgrounds of men serving in both the pre and post-war TAF. It seeks to provide an overview of the social composition of all AAF and SR squadrons and offers a case study of 608 (North Riding) Squadron based at Thornaby Aerodrome between 1930 and 1957. Using primary documents from the National Archives (TNA) and recently digitised press records, it explores the recruitment processes, social backgrounds and social relations of personnel in the TAF. Whilst focusing primarily on officers, it looks too at the experience of non-officer recruits. Its findings indicate that the structures and cultures of the AAF and SR squadrons were indeed similar to the well-publicised London squadrons, whilst those for the RAFVR were much more elite than was expected. Military voluntarism continued to play a key role in the defence of twentieth-century Britain, but the underlying tensions and weaknesses associated with a class-based voluntary culture meant that the TAF had to change in response to new pressures. The thesis charts how these changes began to manifest themselves in the post-war world. Class ceased to be the key determining factor in the recruitment of officers as the organisations faced new challenges. Within both the AAF and the RAFVR the pre-war impression of a gentlemen's flying club finally gave way to a more meritocratic culture in the post-war world.

Full textAbstract:
Health care is an unusual issue for collective bargaining. It was forced onto the bargaining agendas of some unions in South Africa by a combination of failing and racially discriminatory public sector health care and inflationary private sector health care. Sick Funds arc industry-specific health insurance schemes in South Africa, which give their members access to specific and limited private sector medical benefits, sick pay and sometimes maternity pay. They are jointly funded and managed by employer and trade union representatives, through the collective bargaining structures of Industrial Councils. This research, a case study of three Sick Funds for clothing and leather workers, and a more elaborate health insurance scheme for workers in the public transport sector, examines the process of restructuring the content and delivery of medical services, and the management of the schemes. This is done in the context of dramatic political developments on the national stage from 1992, through the period of South Africa’s first democratic election in 1994, to 1996. The membership of the Sick Funds was highly homogeneous, comprising low-paid black workers, predominantly women. Recommendations for reform and expansion of the Sick Funds focused particularly on a shift from reliance on contracted doctors to the establishment of a network of neighbourhood-based worker health centres, with medical staff employed directly by the Funds. The other major recommendation was the extension of benefits to dependants for the first time. The fourth case highlights the difficult process of transforming a much more elaborate scheme in a complex multi-union situation in a large publicly owned company facing privatisation. Membership of the transport scheme was much more heterogeneous: overwhelmingly male and predominantly black, there was a substantial minority of white members and a far greater range of income. The argument is that under certain conditions, trade unions can transform existing arrangements for health care for their members, imprinting a trade union character on both the services and their management. The projects achieved their aims to varying degrees. The thesis explores the conditions for success and failure. The studies do not produce a model, which can be extracted from its context and applied generally. The argument is that struggle is part of the model. Nevertheless, these projects raise crucial questions about proposals for mandatory social health insurance and have important implications for the national project of restructuring the health system for equity.

Full textAbstract:
This ethnographic monograph, based upon research carried out during 1999 when the Scottish parliament was re-convened, outlines the structural and cultural logic of working class nationalism in Scotland today and grounds this reality, in particular among a younger generation, in the post-industrial village of Cardenden in central Fife. The central argument is that a politics of nationality is being driven by class realities and frames the desire to have Nation and State congruent without recourse to metaphors of ‘blood and soil’ and is indifferent to appeals to civic nationalism or civil society. As an ethnography of class this research ethnographically grounds the general idea of working class structuration and class habitus developed by the late Pierre Bourdieu by specifying an original conception of the Scottish working class habitus - specifically, the ‘worked self’. The chapters deal specifically with the crisis in the reproduction of locality, housing conditions, anti-social behaviour and eviction; ethnographically details a British and unionist identity among an older generation of locals and ethnographically and analytically details the embodied nature of work and personhood.

Nas primeiras décadas do século XX, inicialmente em Viena, depois em Berlim, na busca pela profilaxia da neurose, o psicanalista austro-húngaro Wilhelm Reich (1897-1957) militou por transformações sociais. Este estudo focaliza a relação entre ação política e formação da consciência de classe no pensamento de Reich. Tendo por base formulações do historiador Dominick LaCapra, especialmente sobre contextualização e repetição variada, e utilizando o livro de Reich O que é a consciência de classe?, de 1934, como ponto de partida genealógico, foram analisados textos reichianos publicados entre 1926 e 1934. Os resultados indicaram que a proposta de militância política reichiana, afinada com o otimismo leninista e social democrata da virada do século XIX para o XX, pressupôs a capacidade natural revolucionária das massas e a necessidade de um processo recíproco de educação entre as massas e a direção revolucionária sem o qual a revolução não aconteceria<br>In the first decades of the twentieth century, first in Vienna, then in Berlin, in the search for prophylaxis of neurosis, Austro-Hungarian psychoanalyst Wilhelm Reich (1897-1957) campaigned for social transformations.

Based on historian Dominick LaCapras formulations, especially about contextualization and varied repetition, and using the book Reich What is class consciousness?, 1934, as a genealogical point of departure, reichian texts published between 1926 and 1934 were analyzed.

Full textAbstract:
Nos recherches visent a cerner la place que les ouvriers occupent dans le systeme des rapports sociaux qui se dessine aujourd'hui en russie, la part qu'ils prennent a la construction de ces rapports sociaux mais aussi la part de leur experience sociale et de leur identite qui leur est imposee par le systeme. Au carrefour de ces deux orientations theoriques, les ouvriers sont observes dans leurs rapports au passe, dans leurs situations de travail ainsi que dans leurs rapports a l'action collective. Il ressort de ces observations que le passe sovietique pese lourdement sur les representations que les ouvriers se font actuellement d'eux-memes. Ces representations reposent pour une part sur des permanences ou des changements objectifs intervenus dans la vie des ouvriers, mais relevent surtout de la cloture du debat historique qui les empeche de reinterpreter et de se reapproprier leur passe. Quant aux situations de travail, contrastees et diverses, elles morcellent et divisent le monde ouvrier. L'eclatement du groupe ouvrier s'explique d'autant mieux que les conditions de travail les plus repandues sont marquees par une instabilite et un caractere difficilement maitrisable. Elles offrent donc un contexte peu propice a la construction subjective de soi ainsi qu'a l'emergence de solidarites actives. En partie de ce fait, les actions collectives sont relativement peu developpees. Elles sont contrariees par des facteurs d'ordre a la fois subjectif et objectif. Trois mecanismes structurels en rendent largement compte : les mecanismes de l'exclusion sociale, de l'exploitation et de la desubjectivation. L'investigation de ces differentes directions de recherche aboutit a interroger l'existence des ouvriers en tant que groupe social a part entiere et a avancer l'idee d'une deconstruction de ce groupe, portee a la fois par les transformations objectives de la societe russe et par l'evolution concomitantes des representations sociales, politiques et scientifiques<br>Our research aims to evaluate the worker's position in the system of social relations that is now appearing in russia and the part they play in constructing these social relations. Our research also examines the part of their social experience and identity that is imposed on them by the system. At the crossroads of these two theoretical approaches, this work studies the workers' relations with the past, their work situations and their relations to collective action. From our observations it appears that the soviet past weighs heavily on the representations that the workers have of themselves at present. These representations depend partly on permanencies or on objective changes that have taken place in the workers lives, but they are mainly determined by the closing of historical debate which prevents them from reinterpreting and re-appropriating their past. As for the work situations, they are contrasted and diverse and divide the working class. The breaking up of the working class can be explained especially as unstable and uncontrollable working conditions are widespread. They therefore offer an unfavourable background to the subjective construction of oneself and the emergence of active solidarity. This is partly why collective actions are rather infrequent. They are hindered both by subjective and objective factors. Three structural mechanisms largely explain this phenomenon : social exclusion, exploitation and de-subjectivation. The investigation of these different areas has lead us to question the existence of the working class as an actual social group and advance the idea of a deconstruction of this group, carried by the objective transformation of russian society and the concomitant change in social, political and scientific representations

Full textAbstract:
Thesis advisor: Carlo Rotella<br>Thesis advisor: Christopher Wilson<br>This dissertation studies representations of class, labor, and space in Western American literature from 1885-1992. I argue that class is a function of labor in space and that, by zooming in on literary accounts of individuals living out this equation, we can gain a more diverse, more pluralistic vision of a developing Western and more broadly American identity. Moreover, I argue that examining the effects of working practices, class limits and mobility, and spatial shifts on characters in Western literature unveils the crucial roles loss and uncertainty played in shaping the tone, metaphors, and episodes of Western American literature. With a foothold in the political and socioeconomic concerns of this project, I catalogue and close read the less tangible or measurable components of this literature to render individual lives legible against backgrounds of shared histories. Reading those common literary tropes alongside one another suggests that, ultimately, this shared history is an American one that draws from a number of historical moments and has deep roots and routes in the West itself. Chapter One argues that Frank Norris’ McTeague depicts class and socioeconomic identity as products of the kinds of labor that evolve in the ecological and social spaces of San Francisco at the turn of the 20th century. Chapter Two explores class dispossession, masked as ethnic dispossession, in Maria Amparo Ruiz de Burton’s The Squatter and the Don and argues that national affiliations that grant capital security hold more sway in late 19th century Chicano-Californio ranching society than do claims of cultural belonging. Chapter Three focuses on literature that grew out of the twinned national crises of the 1930s, the Depression and the Dust Bowl, and argues that Sanora Babb’s Whose Names Are Unknown, John Fante’s Wait Until Spring, Bandini and Ask the Dust, and Frank Waters’ Below Grass Roots each document the instability, vulnerability, frustration, and constriction that these watershed historical moments brought to individuals and families. Chapter Four close reads historical accounts of cowboy work alongside depictions of ranching work in Cormac McCarthy’s All the Pretty Horses, Elmer Kelton’s The Time it Never Rained, and Larry McMurtry’s Horseman, Pass By. Finally, Chapter Five looks at a handful of American Indian novels that interrogate the role of labor, class, and space in post-indigenous reservation life in the American West.

Previous issue date: 2017-07-11<br>Fundação de Amparo à Pesquisa do Estado de São Paulo (FAPESP)<br>Esta pesquisa visou investigar a atuação dos intelectuais comunistas no estado da Bahia em finais da década de 1920 a início de 1937. Enveredar por este recorte de pesquisa nos permitiu entender o envolvimento dos sujeitos da investigação com agremiações e correntes literárias como a Academia dos Rebeldes (AR) e o movimento regionalista nordestino. Para tanto, analisamos os romances do escritor Jorge Amado, que tomaram o realismo dos regionalistas como referente para a criação de suas obras, como também o realismo socialista enquanto modelo estético - imposto pela União das Repúblicas Socialistas Soviéticas (URSS) aos Partidos Comunistas (PCs) e consequentemente a seus escritores e artistas. Na última parte da pesquisa debruçamo-nos sobre a atuação dos comunistas no debate sobre os problemas de classe, raça e as questões étnico-religiosas no Brasil. Para tanto, analisamos o processo de organização do II Congresso Afro-Brasileiro realizado em Salvador em 1937 e seus resultados. Demonstramos que a inserção dos temas em questão estavam em diálogo com as diretrizes do Partido Comunista do Brasil (PCB), que se esforçava por inserir o negro na classe proletária brasileira. Nesse sentido, entendemos que as discussões alimentadas por Jorge Amado, Edison Carneiro e Aydano do Couto Ferraz em jornais, revistas e livros ou mesmo nos anais dos congressos afro-brasileiros estavam a serviço de um aprofundamento das ideias promovidas pelo partido sobre o “negro proletário”.
Palavras-ch<br>This research aimed at investigating the actions of communist intellectuals in the state of Bahia in the late 1920s to the early 1937. By making this research on this temporality it allowed us to understand the involvement of the subjects of our research with literary associations such as the Rebel Academy (AR) and the Northeastern regional movement. In order to do so, we analyze the writings of the writer Jorge Amado, which took the realism of the regionalists as a reference for the creation of his works, as well as socialist realism as an aesthetic model – imposed by the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR) and consequently to their writers and artists. In the last part of the research, we focus on the communists' role into the debate about the problems of class, race and ethno-religious issues in Brazil. Therefore, we analyze the process of the organization of the II Afro-Brazilian Congress held in Salvador in 1937 and its results. We have shown that the issues in question were in dialogue with the guidelines of the Communist Party of Brazil (PCB), which endeavored to insert the Negro into the Brazilian proletarian class. In this way, we understand that the discussions proposed by Jorge Amado, Edison Carneiro and Aydano do Couto Ferraz in newspapers, magazines and books or even in the annals of the Afro-Brazilian congresses were at the service of a deepening movement of the ideas promoted by the party on the "black proletarians".<br>FAPESP: 2014/12349-0
