Abstract:
PONTIFÍCIA UNIVERSIDADE CATÓLICA DO RIO DE JANEIRO
No processo de libertação da mulher questiona-se o potencial emancipador do direito. A crença das feministas liberais na assimilação da mulher pelo direito deu lugar ao desencanto das feministas culturais na igualdade formal e à afirmação da diferença. Com as feministas radicais desenhou-se a crítica ao direito como status quo, que as feministas pós-modernas levaram mais adiante afirmando que o direito é causa e produto da desigualdade e a necessidade de um novo paradigma no direito. Os métodos jurídicos feministas questionam os métodos jurídicos tradicionais herdados da concepção moderna de Estado liberal, e apresentam uma nova perspectiva do direito, capaz de identificar os pontos em que a sua aplicação reforça as assimetrias de poder e de as corrigir. O estudo do crime de violação e do assédio sexual demonstra as diferentes perspectivas que o direito pode assumir na resolução dos problemas que se colocam às mulheres, e como por vezes se dá a absorção das reformas legais e a sua transformação pela ideologia patriarcal.
In women s liberation process, law is questioned in its emancipating potential. Liberal feminism belief in law assimilationism gave rise to cultural feminists disenchantment in formal equality and to difference affirmation. Radical feminists draw critics to law as a status quo, critics post-modern feminists took further stating law as inequality cause and product, and also the need for a new paradigm in law. Feminist juridical methods question the traditional methods inherited form liberal State modern conception, and present a new perspective in law, able to identify and correct law where its application reinforces power asymmetries. Violation and sexual harassment study aims to demonstrate how law can assume different perspectives in solving women s problems and how, sometimes, legal reforms are absorbed and transformed by patriarchal ideology.

Abstract:
This thesis develops a theoretical framework for the analysis of spectator-participation in live art by examining the performance practices of Guillermo Gómez-Peña's La Pocha Nostra, Marina Abramović, and Gob Squad. It explores the potentialities and limitations of participation from all sides of the performance border, drawing on my experiences as a performing-spectator, watching-spectator, and as an artist-collaborator with La Pocha Nostra. Unravelling the relationship between these roles, it reveals how participation can create a new hierarchy amongst spectators. The thesis offers a new way of looking at the phenomenology of participatory live art by determining these encounters as a complex network of contradictory and interdependent relations, underlined by the "paradox of participation": the duality of holding the position of both performer and spectator at the same time. Accordingly, it argues that these performances constitute a "symmathesy" of participation, to use Nora Bateson's term, which should be viewed as a whole experience rather than as a series of parts. Advancing on from "the emancipated spectator", as outlined by Jacques Rancière, the study reconsiders its meaning within live art. In doing so, it demonstrates how ritual, presence and ethics converge to underpin the transformative and emergent processes that foster and manage participation, while acknowledging the way that imposed sanctions serve to uphold the performance. Moreover, it maintains that spectator-participation has developed into a practice in its own right, and charts the birth of a new breed of spectator who anticipates the possibility of co-creation. It recognises several emerging types of participant, namely the "expert participant-spectator" and the more transgressive "dis-spectator". The thesis establishes that participation can offer spectators a licence to act in ways outside of their everyday political and social reality, at the same time; it calls attention to the lack of consideration and after-care given to spectators post-participation.

Abstract:
I have long had an interest in reworking iconic love stories from the romantic world of opera into contemporary, gay contexts, with the intention of demonstrating the similarities as well as the differences between homosexual and heterosexual relationships. I have not been satisfied with my attempts thus far, and so, as I adapt the story made famous by Puccini in Madama Butterfly, I want to readdress and to improve my practice to ensure that the resulting screenplay speaks authentically to a 21st century audience whilst still echoing its forebear. Using this creative practice, this PhD extends into the process of adaptation Dallas J. Baker’s (2011) concept of ‘queered practice-­‐led research’. It begins with an historical case-­‐study of the genealogy of the story that became Madama Butterfly and its descendants, looking for the intentions of the creators of each version. Through this process I seek to identify the essence of the story – its ‘genetic identity’ in terms of both theme and plot – from which I will create my new version. Crucially, the thesis is written from my perspective as a practitioner, and maintains focus on my intention in embarking on the adaptation project. The thesis continues with reflection on my practice in writing the adapted screenplay, exploring the effect of the changes I have made, the most significant being making the central relationship homosexual. It examines how that queering process fundamentally alters the story in far more respects than simply the gender and sexuality of the central characters, and suggests that it liberates the story. In conclusion it reflects on how my research has informed my practice, and my practice my research, and assesses how the additional freedoms afforded by queering the story have liberated it, and have enhanced my practice as a screenwriter.

Abstract:
The immediate catalyst for having taken up this study was the violent outbreak of weeks of public unrest in the Paris banlieus in the wake of the shooting of young man on the run from the police on October 27 2005. The obvious inability of local municipalities and police forces to explain, let alone to anticipate the swelling discontent with a system which is generally assumed to work effectively and to benefit all has led me to the assumption that we have entered a stage where the concept of representational democracy is seriously compromised. The sheer scale or projected growth rates of urban agglomerations worldwide is certainly a strong, if not the only indicator for the radical change of ‘lived experience’ in the wake of globalized economies, politics and communication networks. If once the lack of a ‘unitary theory’ was attributed to the field of urbanism (Lefebvre, 1991 [1974]), from a contemporary point of view the range of issues and problems at stake far exceed the boundaries of any discipline in particular. Furthermore, to start the inquiry by reasserting the importance of the human condition will allow us to delve into the process of individuation, the diverse realities of individuals, their gathering in groups, their dialogue amongst each other and with their environment in its totality in order to account for the complex interrelations within a highly dynamic network of associations, since the emergence of a fully emancipated Many – as opposed to the One of the state – requires more than the flawed promise of representational democracy to act for the ‘common good,’ or ‘general will’ (Rousseau, 2009 [1762]) of all. Clearly this task is ambitious, for we have to bridge the gap between the needs, aspirations, emotions, anxieties and dreams of individuals on the one hand, and the temporal emergence of collective co-operation on the other. ‘Official’ knowledge, incorporated by endless columns of statistical data, gathered and administered meticulously thanks to the firm grip of institutionalised observation, is of little help though, for we have become increasingly conscious that the representations thereof are a poor match for the complexity of networked realities ‘on the ground’. My artistic practice conducted together with Alexandra Berlinger under the name of Tat ort is precisely aimed at looking into “matters of concern” as opposed to “matters of fact” (Latour, 2005) in order to gain a genuine insight into the workings of existing settings, where we introduce ourselves as intermediaries for the initiation of a process of active participation by means of interventional apparatuses, conceived specifically for the context in question. Our respective experience has led me to the conclusion that instead of providing alternative representations based on presumed universal identity, the full-blown heterogeneity of the multitude thrives on the general intellect and the activity of the speaker. To speak is to act, and to act is the predominant trait of political praxis. It is through our acts and deeds that we disclose ourselves in public in the presence of others (Arendt, 1998 [1958]). And it is through acting that we start anew and leave our mark in a situation the moment we intervene in the circulation of empty signifiers upon which we assign a name, the name of an event. It is through our interventional participation that we allow for novelty to emerge in time, as a process without representation and based on sustained fidelity. My research is centred around two questions: First of all, is it possible to devise an interventional apparatus (physical infrastructure) which would work independent of contextual factors, and secondly, is it possible to retain the site-specificity through a process of dynamically mapping the amalgamation of existing information and the data obtained by participants based on face to face communication in order to draw up the ‘portraits’ of existing communities beyond the scope of institutionalised representation. Emancipating the Many therefore is a statement about difference marked as intervention. This intervention requires the presence of others and the intention to act. It is the emergence of a ‘constitution of time’.

Resumo: A presente tese faz uma análise dos conceitos de corpo presentes nos Cadernos Temáticos da Diversidade:Sexualidade publicados pelo Governo do Estado do Paraná em 2009 como subsídios para a Educação Sexual na Educação Básica. Este governo assumiu oficialmente a pedagogia histórico-crítica ou dialética como orientação pedagógica durante o mandato em que os cadernos foram publicados. O problema do qual partiu a pesquisa pode ser expresso com o seguinte questionamento: os conceitos de corpo implícita ou explicitamente presentes nestes cadernos podem ser considerados histórico-críticos ou dialéticos? Acredita-se que a corporeidade é fundamental à sexualidade. Têm-se como pressuposto que uma educação histórico-crítica ou dialética visa à emancipação dos indivíduos. Os estudos empreendidos ampliam a compreensão do que seja uma proposta emancipatória de Educação da Sexualidade, acrescentando ao debate já existente na linha Ética, Política e Educação do Grupo de pesquisas PAIDÉIA da Faculdade de Educação da UNICAMP um estudo sobre a concepção e representação filosófica do corpo. Para tal, são expostas, inicialmente, as principais apropriações conceituais do que seja uma educação emancipatória, o método dialético ou histórico-crítico, bem como a carência de uma produção acadêmica sobre o corpo nessa perspectiva. São demonstradas as análises dos cadernos temáticos escolhidos como objeto de estudo que problematizam sua pertinência como subsídio histórico-críticos ou dialéticos e, por fim, é realizada uma discussão ontológica acerca do corpo com vistas a acrescentar elementos importantes à produção acadêmica na área. Recorrendo à compreensão dialética ou histórico-crítica da educação como horizonte teórico e metodológico os estudos realizados demonstram que há o predomínio de discussões acerca de gênero e violência em perspectivas discursivas pós-estruturalistas nas quais os conceitos de corpo remetem a sujeitos desmaterializados, assujeitados pelas estruturas e pelos discursos, ontologicamente esvaziados. Tal constatação permite afirmar que a perspectiva histórico-crítica ou dialética não se sustenta como horizonte teórico e epistemológico dos Cadernos Temáticos da Diversidade: Sexualidade
Abstract: This doctoral thesis provides an analysis of the concepts of body in the 2009 publication by the Government of the State of Paraná, "CadernosTemáticos da Diversidade: Sexualidade" in support of Sexuality Education in Basic Education. This Government has officially adopted historical-critical or dialectic pedagogy as its pedagogical orientation during its mandate, when the "Cadernos" were published. The problem from which this research developed can be expressed by the following question: Can the concepts of body, explicit or implicitly presented in these "Cadernos", be considered historical-critical or dialectic? We believe that embodiment is fundamental to sexuality. It is assumed that a historical-critical or dialectical education aims at the individual's emancipation. The studies undertaken extend the comprehension of an emancipating proposal for Sexuality Education by adding a study on the philosophical conception and representation of the body to the ongoing discussion in the research line "Ethics, Politics and Education" of the research group "PAIDÉIA", within the Education College at UNICAMP- State University of Campinas, São Paulo. In order to do so, we initially present the main conceptual considerations of what an emancipating education might be, the dialectic or historical-critical method, as well as the need for an academic investigation on the body under that perspective. We demonstrate the analyses of the "CadernosTemáticos", or thematic notebooks, chosen as our study object, which problematizes their pertinence as historical-critical or dialectic subsidy, and finally carry on an ontological discussion concerning the body in order to add important elements to the academic publications in the area. Drawing upon a dialectical or historical-critical comprehension of education as a theoretical and methodological perspective, the studies which were carried out demonstrate there is a predominance of discussions on genre and violence under discursive post-structuralist perspectives, in which the concepts of body refer to dematerialized subjects, subdued by structures and discourses, ontologically emptied. Such a consideration allows us to confirm that the historical-critical or dialectic perspective is not sustained as a theoretical and epistemological reference in the "CadernosTemáticos da Diversidade: Sexualidade"

Abstract:
In this study on form within the field of Gender and Fem(me)inist Studies I build on, and work with, works created by black women and femmes, as well as femmes and women of color to explore their ways of theorizing through form, as well as finding my own, with roots from all the beautiful experiments lived and written about by these folks. As I sketch out these theories and texts and bring them to the Swedish context in which I write I am breaking new ground for research on blackness, femme-inist theory and form as well as methodologies here. Using an approach of mixed methodologies – formulated in the concepts of femmebodimotive writing and other pleasurable methodologies – I use my body and its emotions oozing from it as a tool for theorizing in the intersections of gender, sexuality, blackness, care and its connections to water, kinship, language, pleasure and rest. I tend to various intersections of these to find new ways of swAfrican (Swedish and African Tanzanian) Black, femme, borderland(s) being in the world. The first chapter sketches out these borderlands as they connect in my body and its surroundings. It is highly inspired by Alexis Pauline Gumbs’ Spill in its form and will invite you to think care with me as I wrap my hair in queer kangas (colorfully sketched out in a KangaProject) over which we wander to the Kiswahili coast and take a plunge in black waters. This is where the second chapter starts, in the biomythographical waters, waves and currents carried inside us, and by us, as well as the waters and currents connecting the worlds corners. All water carries the currents of histories of genders, sexualities, kinship and languages and this, as well as the un/realness of the black bodies in focus, is intimately explored with the help of Omise’ekeNatasha Tinsley, Christina Sharpe, Sara Ahmed, a few other theorists, dictionaries and me. And as the waters runs up and down, from side to side, the waves and wakes travel further in time. These waves travel all the way into sleep, and into the third chapter. Upon entering this final chapter, you find a small visual constellation of these sleep waves. Here, rest and pleasure are in focus and I think with and through Navild Acosta and Fannie Sosa’s installation of Black Power Naps as a way to think blackness and femme-inity and their movements as theory, joy and as connected to pleasurable methodologies. My explorations lead me to the importance of form and texture for knowledge production as it may show other dimensions of theoretical thoughts and problems. In highlighting this I also show how the master (thesis) form may be approached differently by Black femmes of color and thus illuminating what issues these bodies have in white academic spaces.

This dissertation is about a study to understand the identity metamorphosis of those who lived in shelters. It used the life story narrative methodology, so the subject of this research could tell his story. The empirical material of this study is about the narrative of a person we will call Davi. The construction of this dissertation text was divided in three big moments: first, it was realized a bibliographic study about the production and discussions about this theme, and, from there, was built the first chapter, a historical contextualization about the theme, that conforms an explanation of the practices and policies of the residential care for children and adolescents over the history of Brazil until nowadays. The second part shows the theoretical discussion that supports this dissertation. In this sense, it was brought the discussions about identity proposed by Ciampa (1987), and their updates, with collaborations of Almeida (2005) and Lima (2010), besides others Critical Social Psychology authors. The last part is about Daviâs narrative story, as well as the analysis and discussions built from it. In this stage, an attempt was made to interweave the two moments before the narrative, like the threads of a fabric that intertwine between the plot and the warp. Daviâs story sets the singularity of a life full of struggle, in the constant search of building his autonomy. He lived in the shelter throughout his childhood and returned to his family when he was 10-years-old, after 7 years without getting in touch with them. After returning to his family, he had to work since he was a little boy to help to sustain his home, as well as asking for money at traffic lights and living in the streets sometimes. Throughout his story, some other characters appear: the caregiver-responsible-for-the-family, who shows up during his childhood, the worker-scrap-collector-boy and the traffic-light-juggler-boy, the graffiti, the rap-song-writer, the hip-hop-culture-dancer, the athlete, the husband-and-family-father, the social-educator, the advertising-person and the activist-for-the-rights-of-children-and-adolescents. Davi reports a story of struggle for the construction of his autonomy, a story that, although singular, expresses so many other silenced stories of people who live or lived in shelters.
Esta dissertaÃÃo trata de um estudo que visou compreender as metamorfoses da identidade de quem viveu em situaÃÃo de abrigamento. Para tanto, recorremos à metodologia de narrativa de histÃria de vida, a fim de que o sujeito participante da pesquisa pudesse narrar sua histÃria. Deste modo, o material empÃrico deste estudo refere-se à narrativa de uma pessoa chamada aqui de Davi. A construÃÃo do texto da dissertaÃÃo foi organizada em trÃs grandes momentos: primeiro foi realizado um estudo bibliogrÃfico acerca das produÃÃes e discussÃes sobre o tema, e, a partir disso, construÃmos o primeiro capÃtulo, que se constitui de uma contextualizaÃÃo histÃrica acerca da temÃtica pesquisada, que conforma uma explanaÃÃo das prÃticas e polÃticas de acolhimento institucional de crianÃas e adolescentes ao longo da histÃria do Brasil atà os dias de hoje; o segundo momento apresenta a discussÃo teÃrica que sustenta esta dissertaÃÃo. Nesse sentido, trazemos as discussÃes sobre identidade propostas por Ciampa (1987), bem como as atualizaÃÃes desta perspectiva com colaboraÃÃes de Almeida (2005) e Lima (2010), alÃm de outros autores alinhados à Psicologia Social CrÃtica; e o Ãltimo momento trata da narrativa da histÃria de Davi, bem como das anÃlises e discussÃes produzidas a partir dela. Nessa etapa buscamos entretecer os dois momentos anteriores à narrativa, como os fios de um tecido que se entrelaÃam entre a trama e o urdume. A histÃria de Davi marca a singularidade de uma vida de muita luta e labuta na busca constante da construÃÃo de sua autonomia. Viveu no abrigo durante sua infÃncia e retorna ao convÃvio familiar aos 10 anos, depois de viver 7 anos sem contato com a famÃlia. Ao retornar à famÃlia, precisou trabalhar desde menino para ajudar no sustento da casa, alÃm de ter de pedir dinheiro no semÃforo e ter ficado em situaÃÃo de rua em alguns momentos. No decorrer da histÃria vÃo emergindo e aparecendo outras tantas personagens: o cuidador-responsÃvel-pela-famÃlia, que aparece na infÃncia, o menino-trabalhador-catador-de-sucata e o menino-que-faz-malabares-no-semÃforo, o grafiteiro, o escritor-de-letra-rap, o danÃarino-que-promove-a-cultura-hip-hop, o atleta, o marido-e-pai-de-famÃlia, o educador-social, o publicitÃrio e o militante-dos-direitos-de-crianÃas-e-adolescentes. Davi revela uma histÃria de luta pela construÃÃo da autonomia e que, embora singular, possibilita expressar ainda outras tantas histÃrias silenciadas de pessoas que vivem ou viveram em situaÃÃo de abrigamento.

Situada no campo da Sociologia da Avaliação a tese busca responder as seguintes questões: é possível desenvolver práticas sociais emancipatórias no seio de estruturas regulatórias, no que concerne à avaliação de sistemas educacionais? No processo de regulamentação da avaliação no município de Rolim de Moura/RO existem práticas sociais e políticas que contribuam e desenvolvam ações de cidadania emancipatória dos sujeitos envolvidos? Inserida no âmbito da pesquisa educacional de abordagem qualitativa, o estudo se pauta pela técnica da pesquisa participante. Como instrumentos destacamse questionários, formulários, registros de campo, observações participantes e análise documental. E seus sujeitos são os servidores da rede pública municipal de ensino. Ao dar voz aos sujeitos estudados, os resultados da pesquisa apontam para os princípios reguladores da avaliação no município quanto à concepção de avaliação, enfoques e objetivos. Pelos resultados alcançados, o estudo demonstrou que as avaliações de sistemas municipais propiciadoras da participação política e mobilização social contribuem para dar visibilidade às experiências localizadas, entendendo-as como legítimas na produção de conhecimento e análise de um contexto real que guarda em suas particularidades a ideia da totalidade. Logo, a avaliação educacional se apresenta como procedimento metodológico capaz de expandir o presente, conhecendo as diferentes experiências sociais locais. E, assim, reconhecendo nas práticas presentes de uma determinada comunidade local suas possibilidades e capacidades de construir o futuro. Por fim, a comunidade pesquisada, mostrou que prefere pensar na produção de conhecimentos propiciadores da ação em termos emancipatórios e acredita na avaliação como um instrumento importante que ajudará a decidir bem no presente e construir um futuro que caiba dentro dessas possibilidades
The thesis is placed on the universe of Sociological Evaluation and looks forward to answer the following questions: Is it possible to develop emancipating social actions inside regulatory structures, regarding the evaluation of the educational system? Is it possible to find, inside the regulatory evaluation system, at Rolim de Moura/Ro county, social and political actions that help contributing and developing emancipating citizenship actions from the local population? Classified as a research on the range of the educational qualitative search, this paper is supported by the technique known as participative search. As working tools it was used surveys, forms, field registrations, participative observation e document analyzes. Its characters are the workers of the local public schools. Once it was given “voice” to the studied subjects, the results of the research pointed to the main evaluation regulatory procedures in the county, regarding its conceptions of evaluation, focus and goals. By the conclusion found, the paper shows that the evaluation systems of the county, giving the chance of political action and social mobilization contributes to give more visibility to the local experiences, making them valid in terms of knowledge development and in the analyses of a real context that keeps in its particular aspects the idea of totality. So, educational evaluation appears as a methodological procedure able to expand the present time, showing the awareness of the different local social experiences. And, thus, recognizing in the present actions of a certain community its possibilities and capability to build a different future. After all, the searched community has shown that prefers to think about the production of knowledge that can motivate emancipating actions and believe in evaluation as an important instrument to help taking good decisions in the present and build up a future that matches inside these new possibilities

This research lies in the field of the history of education and aims to investigate to what extent the design of Historic-Criticism Pedagogy, Marxist base, is being put into practice in educational institutions of Francisco Beltrão, in order to promote the arrest of scientific codes that favor a new interpretation of the world and a social practice transformed, once again, that by guidelines of State and Municipal Departments of Education, the Pedagogical Political Projects of schools appear based on this theory. To carry out the work in the use of documentary and bibliographic means and interviews. The text is divided into three chapters, the first attempts to understand the theoretical roots of the Historic-Criticism Pedagogy, from the conception of Marx, Lenin, Gramsci and Historic-Cultual Psychology of Vygotsky, we seek also to understand their goals and methodological foundations to from its main exponent, Teacher Dermeval Saviani. In the second deal of Historic-Criticism Pedagogy Network in the State of Paraná its principles and contradictions, through analysis of Paranaenses Educational Policy from 1990 to 2014. In the third chapter carries on about HCP in the Municipal Network of Francisco Beltrão, establishing relations with the political state comprising as they reflect the organization of municipal education. In addition to analyzing practices developed at the Municipal School XV October indicating that even this contradictory capitalist context there are some minor attempts at objectification of HPC. At the end of the survey we conclude that we have a lot to walk to the HPC pass a goal proclaimed in the documents and become a real goal. It was evident that we need to move from concrete conditions having clear that the story is built mediated by human actions and collective conscious and, therefore, it is fully possible to perform another education aimed emancipation of the working class.
A presente pesquisa situa-se no campo da história da educação e tem por objetivo investigar em que medida a concepção da Pedagogia Histórico-Crítica (PHC), de base marxista, está sendo colocada em prática nas instituições educativas de Francisco Beltrão-PR, visto que, por orientações das Secretarias Estaduais e Municipais de Educação, os Projetos Políticos Pedagógicos das escolas aparecem fundamentados por essa teoria. Para a realização a investigação utilizamos fontes documentais, bibliográficas e entrevistas. O texto está dividido em três capítulos, no primeiro procuramos entender as raízes teóricas da Pedagogia Histórico-Crítica, a partir da concepção de Marx, Lênin, Gramsci e da psicologia Histórico-Cultural de Vygotski. Buscamos também compreender os seus objetivos e fundamentos metodológicos a partir de seu principal expoente, o professor Dermeval Saviani. No segundo tratamos da Pedagogia Histórico-Critica na Rede Estadual do Paraná seus princípios e contradições, por meio de análises das Políticas Educacionais Paranaenses de 1990 a 2014 e dos Projetos Políticos e Pedagógicos (PPP) de algumas escolas estaduais de Francisco Beltrão. No terceiro discorremos sobre a PHC na Rede Municipal de Francisco Beltrão, estabelecendo relações com as políticas estaduais, procurando compreender como elas refletiram na organização da educação municipal. Além disso, desenvolvemos análises práticas na Escola Municipal XV de Outubro, indicando que mesmo nesse contexto capitalista contraditório existem algumas pequenas tentativas de objetivação da PHC. Ao final da pesquisa concluímos que temos muito que caminhar para que a PHC passe de um objetivo proclamado nos documentos e se torne um objetivo real. Ficou evidente que precisamos agir a partir de condições concretas tendo claro que a história se constrói mediada por ações humanas conscientes e coletivas e que, por isso, é plenamente possível realizar uma outra educação voltada para emancipação da classe trabalhadora.

Resumo: Situada no campo da Sociologia da Avaliação a tese busca responder as seguintes questões: é possível desenvolver práticas sociais emancipatórias no seio de estruturas regulatórias, no que concerne à avaliação de sistemas educacionais? No processo de regulamentação da avaliação no município de Rolim de Moura/RO existem práticas sociais e políticas que contribuam e desenvolvam ações de cidadania emancipatória dos sujeitos envolvidos? Inserida no âmbito da pesquisa educacional de abordagem qualitativa, o estudo se pauta pela técnica da pesquisa participante. Como instrumentos destacamse questionários, formulários, registros de campo, observações participantes e análise documental. E seus sujeitos são os servidores da rede pública municipal de ensino. Ao dar voz aos sujeitos estudados, os resultados da pesquisa apontam para os princípios reguladores da avaliação no município quanto à concepção de avaliação, enfoques e objetivos. Pelos resultados alcançados, o estudo demonstrou que as avaliações de sistemas municipais propiciadoras da participação política e mobilização social contribuem para dar visibilidade às experiências localizadas, entendendo-as como legítimas na produção de conhecimento e análise de um contexto real que guarda em suas particularidades a ideia da totalidade. Logo, a avaliação educacional se apresenta como procedimento metodológico capaz de expandir o presente, conhecendo as diferentes experiências sociais locais. E, assim, reconhecendo nas práticas presentes de uma determinada comunidade local suas possibilidades e capacidades de construir o futuro. Por fim, a comunidade pesquisada, mostrou que prefere pensar na produção de conhecimentos propiciadores da ação em termos emancipatórios e acredita na avaliação como um instrumento importante que ajudará a decidir bem no presente e construir um futuro que caiba dentro dessas possibilidades
Abstract: The thesis is placed on the universe of Sociological Evaluation and looks forward to answer the following questions: Is it possible to develop emancipating social actions inside regulatory structures, regarding the evaluation of the educational system? Is it possible to find, inside the regulatory evaluation system, at Rolim de Moura/Ro county, social and political actions that help contributing and developing emancipating citizenship actions from the local population? Classified as a research on the range of the educational qualitative search, this paper is supported by the technique known as participative search. As working tools it was used surveys, forms, field registrations, participative observation e document analyzes. Its characters are the workers of the local public schools. Once it was given "voice" to the studied subjects, the results of the research pointed to the main evaluation regulatory procedures in the county, regarding its conceptions of evaluation, focus and goals. By the conclusion found, the paper shows that the evaluation systems of the county, giving the chance of political action and social mobilization contributes to give more visibility to the local experiences, making them valid in terms of knowledge development and in the analyses of a real context that keeps in its particular aspects the idea of totality. So, educational evaluation appears as a methodological procedure able to expand the present time, showing the awareness of the different local social experiences. And, thus, recognizing in the present actions of a certain community its possibilities and capability to build a different future. After all, the searched community has shown that prefers to think about the production of knowledge that can motivate emancipating actions and believe in evaluation as an important instrument to help taking good decisions in the present and build up a future that matches inside these new possibilities

Abstract:

I would like to think that I chose this study to add to the literature on human development in the prison system. However, I would have to say that the study chose me. It became a deep discovery of what is required for human beings to grow within the context of a prison setting and afterwards in the community. The study explored the life history of an Aboriginal woman once considered to be a volatile, violent, and unmanageable female prisoner by the Correctional Service of Canada (CSC). Changing her life she became a valued volunteer within that prison system.

Human growth and development must be considered with attention to the exogenous influences of all the systems people have to negotiate. I walked with Lora for 14 years: 7 while in custody and 7 afterwards until her death in 2013. During that time she became a mother, a volunteer, peer researcher, cancer patient, and always a teacher.

Since the 1970s there has been a pervasive decline in recognizing rehabilitation potential in people with lives plagued by addictions and the crimes supporting them. I observed the opposite: hundreds of lives changed for the better. There are interventions that kindle the flame and support a fire in people to build a healthy, productive life. Society has a responsibility to fan that fire, rather than feeding the despondency and hopelessness so prevalent in our prisons.

Information was gathered from interviews with Lora, video and audio recordings, her journals and poetry. Interviews were also conducted with family to gain clarity of her childhood and complex trauma history and with people who walked with her after prison to elucidate her change process.

The study encompassed literature from modern, post-modern, and Aboriginal epistemology, integrating theory from multiple disciplines. What emerged was how powerful the deleterious influences of complex childhood trauma are, in all domains, over the life span. Counteracting this damage most significantly are the mechanisms of hope and the inspiration of believing in the possibility for successful and lasting change: This is the key-stone to the archway through which people re-enter the community from prison.

Esperamos que esta dissertação contribua com a área de conhecimento da Educação Infantil e, mais precisamente, da Educação Infantil do Campo. O que efetivamos por meio da “Análise de documentos, considerados centrais, das Políticas Públicas de Educação Infantil no/do Campo, no Brasil, a partir da Constituição Federal de 1988”. O estudo buscou investigar se as Políticas Públicas de Educação Infantil no/do Campo, a partir da Constituição de 1988, tendem a uma perspectiva emancipatória. Considerando a perspectiva da emancipação humana que elementos, constantes nas políticas públicas, apontam nesse sentido? Para efetivar a investigação utilizamos o método qualitativo, com estudo bibliográfico e análise documental, a partir do referencial do materialismo histórico e dialético. A revisão bibliográfica traz o estudo de diferentes obras e autores, entre eles Marx, Mészáros, Shiroma; Moraes; Evangelista; Oliveira. Conclui-se que os documentos oficiais representam avanços e retrocessos e trazem as marcas da influência de organismos internacionais que objetivam, através da educação, o crescimento do capital. Na relação entre emancipação humana e reprodução econômica e sociocultural, são os movimentos sociais que reivindicam, através de múltiplas ações, os direitos também na educação, assim como a sua efetivação. Eles reivindicam uma educação ‘diferente’, efetivamente ligada à produção da vida. As experiências de outra educação, realizadas pelos Movimentos Sociais do Campo, assim como a produção teórica decorrente, tem sido referência da dimensão emancipatória encontrada na política pública, expressa nos documentos analisados.
We expect this dissertation contributes with the knowledge of the children education, mainly the children education in the country side. This study was done by means of analysis of documents considering centrals of the public politics of children education in the country side in Brazil, since the federal constitution of 1988. The study found research the the public politics of children education in the country side in Brazil, since the federal constitution of 1988 tend to an emancipatory perspective? Considering a perspective of the human emancipation what constant elements of the public politics is considering in this directions? To realize the research we used a quantitative method, with bibliography study and documents analyses, using a referential of historical materialism and dialectic. A bibliography revision gives a study of different woks authors such as Marx, Mészáros, Shiroma; Moraes; Evangelista; Oliveira. We conclude that this officials document represents advances and retreats and brings the influence of international institutions that aim through the education, the growing of the capital. The relationship between human emancipation and economy reproduction and society culture, they are social movements that claim through different actions, the rights also in the education, as well your realization. They claim a different education, effective connection a production of the live. The experiences of other education done by other social movement of the field, as well as the theory production was a reference of the emancipation dimension found in the public politics cited in the analyzed documents.

Abstract:
Since the end of the Cold War, there has been a comprehensive challenge to dominant conceptions in Security Studies. Security has been approached as a political phenomenon, resulting from political assumptions and having political effects. The politicization of security has been pursued by a number of so-called ‘critical approaches,’ including ‘security as emancipation.’ The latter argues that security consists in removing or alleviating constraints upon the lives of individuals and groups – such as poverty, ill health, or lack of education. This thesis asks two questions: firstly, can the ‘security as emancipation’ approach, in its current formulation, deliver on its claims and promises, in the context of the effort of politicization in Security Studies? And secondly, if it is shown that there are weaknesses, in what ways can the analytical and normative outlook of security as emancipation be strengthened through an engagement with other resources in the literature? Chapters 1 and 2 establish the context in which the merits of security as emancipation must be judged. They conclude that an engagement with this approach must focus on the way it conceives the multiple connections between security and politics. Chapters 3, 4 and 5 pursue this insight, by focusing on the notions of reality, threat and power respectively. In each of these themes, the argument identifies gaps in security as emancipation and suggests theoretical reconsiderations based on an engagement with approaches and ideas – in the critical security literature and in social and political theory – that so far have been neglected or not examined sufficiently by this approach. This thesis aims to re-establish security as emancipation as a valid interlocutor within critical debates about security. It also aims to show that the dialogue between critical approaches is, not only possible, but beneficial to understanding the politicization of security.

The central issue in this work is the analysis of the advanced industrial society in the Critical Theory point of view, and re-thinking the meaning of barbarism and domination that is imperative in this viewpoint. Thru Marxâs, Marcuseâs and Adornoâs thinkings, we evidence menâs active role in their historicism, as well as the educational role in this society model. For this purpose we point out Marxâs ontological presuppositions of sociohistorical menâs relations, emphasizing his conception of History and the alienation socially constructed by men themselves. We also emphasize Marcuseâs critique of the Instrumental Reason, pointing out the new individuality patterns that emerge from the technological society, as well as his defense in rescuing the negative thinking as a condition to overcome and transform this society model. We demonstrate Adornoâs analysis of the dominant social relations through culture industry, which ended destroying the individual humane dimension. Based on his analysis, we point out his claims to rescue menâs humanization enabling them to enlightenment and critical reflection, so that they can free themselves of oppression and domination circumstances. We emphasize his beliefs in an emancipatory education which conducts men to the transformation of society. Finally, our work presents Marxâs, Marcuseâs and Adornoâs contributions in making possible this emancipatory and critical education

Abstract:
Over the past few decades there has been a concerted effort in southern Africa forcommunity based natural resource management (CBNRM) programs. The generalpremise behind CBNRM allows local communities to be empowered to utilize theirsurrounding natural resources to facilitate socio-economic growth. This is seen as aneffective rural development tool which often takes on the form of eco-tourism inSouth Africa. It creates a link between nature conservation and socio-economicdevelopment needs and is normally built on existing conservation areas such asnational parks (Ezeuduji et al. 2017: 225).“Protected area outreach” is a form ofCBNRM (Chevallier 2016: 6), and this degree project examines how stakeholderparticipation was incorporated into the formulation of Kruger National Park’s (KNP)ten-year management plan. Using KNP’s stakeholder engagement process as anaturalistic case study, the aim is to discover the extent of participation and whethertrue empowerment is facilitated. This was done via document analysis of the 2018KNP Stakeholder Participation Report using the emancipatory approach. Thisapproach is influenced by critical, post-colonial and intersectional theory andemphasizes the attainment of social justice through the unveiling and dismantling ofinvisible oppressive power structures (Wesp et al. 2018: 319). The analysis showsthat KNP uses a systems approach to their stakeholder engagement as opposed toan empowerment one; that participation is limited to consultation and is thereforemerely a form of tokenism; that weaker marginalized stakeholder groups suffer fromsystemic exclusion and underrepresentation; and that there is little to no attentiongiven to empowerment nor structural reform to drive social change.

Full text
Abstract:
In light of an increasing embrace of the notion of ‘emancipation’ by various theoretical and political perspectives in recent years, this thesis aims to scrutinise the philosophical connotations of the concept itself. It therefore returns to Karl Marx’s distinction between political and human emancipation, developed in his text ‘On the Jewish Question’, with the aim of excavating its theoretical stakes. The core argument of the first part is that Marx draws a line of demarcation between citizenship as the modern form of political, bourgeois emancipation realised by the American and French Revolutions, and human emancipation as necessitating a different kind of revolution that would allow for the constitution of a new type of social bond between the individual and the social. Marx’s formulation of the need for human emancipation is grounded in his critique of political emancipation, which he regards as failing to recognise the dialectical constitution of its social bond by both political and economic relations. The bourgeois social bond moreover makes ‘man’ exist as an individualised being who can only relate to his or her political existence and dependency on others in a mediated and abstract way. The second part turns to the post-Marxist critiques of ‘On the Jewish Question’, starting in the late 1970s with Claude Lefort, which coincide with a broader re-evaluation of the revolutionary legacy in France. It specifically interrogates Étienne Balibar’s alternative understanding of the form of emancipation achieved by the French Revolution under the name of ‘equaliberty’, with which he defends the struggle for citizenship as the unsurpassable horizon of a contemporary politics of emancipation. The aim is here to develop a deeper understanding of Balibar’s criticism of Marx’s dividing line, which allows the French thinker's contribution to 'thinking emancipation after Marx' to be disentangled from his decision to distance himself from the Marxian approach.

Abstract:
Historically, emancipation has been interpreted as inseparable from modernity. Emancipation has been configured in terms of an increase in reason and a commensurate 'disenchantment' and a banishment of the sacred. The emergence of post-development as a recognisable discourse within the field of development studies and practice has raised important questions regarding understandings of social progress. Notable in the literature and practice of post-development is an increased reference to the human spirit and 'spirituality' as an integral part of the process of social liberation. According to Marxist theory, such reference undermines its emancipatory potential. This thesis provides an alternative way of interpreting this return of the sacred by arguing that post-development is more fruitfully interpreted as a reinvention of Gandhian praxis. Moreover, the conjunction of Gandhian categories with post-colonial and post-developmental analyses provide an alternative lens through which to frame a model of emancipation more appropriate to the context of post-modernity. This process foregrounds issues of agency and identity in social change locating discussion of the spiritual in activist narrative as central to the structural processes of social change. The framework produced by these discussions is subsequently employed in order to examine the verity of environmentalist claims to emancipation. The argument is informed by ongoing post-development activism in North India and a range of new social movement activity. Fundamental to the approach is the need to focus on the ongoing processes involved in social transformation as a means to emancipation, rather than to any pre-determined aims. In conclusion, I show how the conjunction of Gandhian thought and post-development. is providing a framework for re-enchanted understandings of emancipatory action. Contingent upon their location, such emancipations are applicable to the 'North' as well as the 'South'.

Emancipação socioambiental: por uma Teoria Crítica Ambiental busca discutir hermeneuticamente os contrastes da emancipação social oriunda da tradição marxista da Escola de Frankfurt em suas duas versões, sistematizadas por Theodor Adorno e Max Horkheimer - a primeira radicada no materialismo interdisciplinar e a segunda balizada pelo contexto da razão instrumental - e dos teóricos-críticos contemporâneos, como Boaventura Souza Santos. A começar pela análise analítico-descritiva, desenvolve-se o tema apresentando o status quo da emancipação social desde a conceituação da racionalidade instrumental como efetivo paradigma do sistema capitalista. Em seguida, estudam-se as influências dessa modalidade racional a partir dos pressupostos ético-políticos que a consubstanciam, a saber, os Direitos Humanos, a dignidade da pessoa humana e os modelos democráticos hegemônicos, a fim de se constatar os limites da emancipação social no enredo desenvolvimentista-liberal. Uma vez estruturado o contexto crítico da emancipação social pelas contingências teóricas e críticas, desvela-se a crise ambiental proveniente do modo de produção capitalista, fundamentado na instrumentalidade técnico-científica, a fim de se descobrir o socioambientalismo como novo interlocutor da ação política no que se refere à emancipação socioambiental. Para tanto, o texto projeta-se dialeticamente nas perspectivas emancipatórias presentes na racionalidade socioambiental, em oposição à racionalidade instrumental, e se serve da análise descritiva das ferramentas de cooptação economicista ambiental para justificar que a crise ecológica hodierna, parametrizada pela cientificidade capitalista e seus derivados - sobretudo a desigualdade dos atores sociais, o aumento da pobreza e a degradação ambiental -, tem consistentes pontos convergentes e demanda politicamente novos saberes. O modelo de ação política em que se situa o texto está referenciado pelo ecossocialismo, posicionando a ecologia política como precursora de uma nova cultura social e ambiental lastreada pelo conceito coletivista do modo de existir com os outros - humanos e não-humanos. À guisa de conclusão, tem-se a atualização do pressuposto da Teoria Crítica no que se refere à sua dimensão principiológica: a emancipação socioambiental como possibilidade de se compreender as complexidades do tempo presente e de ser capaz de reinterpretar e resignificar, a partir de matrizes políticas, sociais e ambientais, a racionalidade socioambiental como pressuposto de uma configuração da relação homem-natureza.
Social-Environmental Emancipation: for a Critical Environmental Theory tries to hermeneutically discuss the contrasts of social emancipation from the Marxist tradition of the Frankfurt School in its two versions, systematized by Theodor Adorno and Max Horkheimer - the first one taking root in the interdisciplinary materialism and the second one marked by the context of the instrumental reason -, and of the contemporary theoretical-critical ones such as Boaventura Souza Santos. Starting from the analytical-descriptive assessment, the subject is developed by presenting the status quo of social emancipation from the conceptualization of instrumental rationality as an effective paradigm of the capitalist system. Then, the influences of this rational modality are studied from the ethical-political assumptions that substantiate it, that is, Human Rights, the dignity of the human being and the hegemonic democratic models, in order to define the limits of social emancipation in the developmental-liberal scenario. Once the critical context of social emancipation through theoretical and critical contingencies has been structured, the environmental crisis from the capitalist production mode, based on the technical-scientific instrumentality, is unveiled so that the social environmentalism is discovered as a new interlocutor of the political action in what regards the social-environmental emancipation. On that purpose, the text dialectically projects itself in the emancipatory perspectives found in the social-environmental rationality, as opposed to the instrumental rationality, and uses the descriptive analysis of the environmental economicsbased co-optation tools to justify the fact that the current ecological crisis, parameterized by the capitalist scientificity and its derivatives – especially the inequality of the social actors, increasing poverty and environmental degradation - has consistent convergent points and politically demands new knowledge. The political action model in which the text is located is referred by ecosocialism, positioning political ecology as precursor of a new social and environmental culture based on the collectivist concept of the way of existing with the others - human and non-human.To conclude, the Critical Theory assumption is updated in what regards its principiologic dimension: the social-environmental emancipation as a possibility to understand the complexities of the present times and to be able to reinterpret and give a new meaning, from political, social and environmental matrixes, to the social-environmental rationality as an assumption for a configuration of the man-nature relationship.

Abstract:
This thesis offers a nuanced analysis and evaluation of the Maputo Development Corridor (MDC) the first cross-border corridor project in Africa. It considers the core debate that exalts this flagship cross-border development corridor as a model for growth and development in Africa, while simultaneously questioning why key academics remain critical of the model’s ability to deliver. The thesis critiques numerous one dimensional interpretations of the project that condemn the MDC as little more than a neo-liberal experiment. It suggests that the context is correct, but the outcomes are overly narrow. It draws together an impressive collection of data that encompasses South Africa and Mozambique. The resulting analysis offers a unique insight into this development corridor and its ability to deliver in this micro-region. It provides insight into the projects ability to deliver on its economic and social objectives, the latter of which has remained unexamined until this time. This is achieved through both qualitative and quantitative evaluation. It acknowledges the weaknesses in the MDC. Nevertheless, the positive results found here can be assimilated into a ‘corridor methodology’ which could then enhance develop mentalism in other micro-regions throughout Africa.

Noronha, Feio Carlos. "Practices of everyday emancipation : an artists' toolkit." Thesis, Royal College of Art, 2017. http://researchonline.rca.ac.uk/2841/.

Full text
Abstract:
Through practice-based research, I propose to reflect critically on my practicethrough a dialogue with the work of other artists and theorists that include Michel Foucault, Giorgio Agamben, Gilles Deleuze, Theaster Gates, Marine Hugonnier, and Claire Fontaine. I explore the possibility of self and collective emancipation from sedimented socio-historical and political violence. The forms of violence that concern me are those produced by legacies of war,colonialism, economic ideologies and religious practices. As an integral part of the methodology, I have selected examples of modern and contemporary artworks considered as being engaged with art's social significance. Through a dialogue with these artworks, I draw out significant pressures and develop a toolkit of concepts: dispositif-of-dissent,able-agent, and universim. The selected examples of artworks suggest potentially disseminable strategies of social, political, critical and ethical value. Socially engaged art has been a constant presence for over a century, the Wanderers in Russia, William Morris in the UK, and Oswald de Andrade in Brazil are great examples of its span. My thesis selects an aspect of current socially engaged practice that argues for a particular conceptual strength and socio-political agency. I assert the idea that small strategic gestures are of far greater critical significance than grand reactionary actions. I also focus on the idea that empowerment and emancipation can only come from an engagement with the structures of power already at play — and the social, political and economic conditions that these have produced. My approach foregrounds the construction of the aforementioned toolkit aiming to contribute to the widening of a field of inquiry, born of already existing practices. These practices produce encounters with others and suggest ways of discovering agency in everyday life and experience in ways that are potentially collective and social in orientation. The artists of interest to my research forge modes of production open to experimentation, and offer critical expressions of being and relating to others. This toolkit, its terms of use and the artworks I create in relation to it, aims to reflect and animate the development of this field of practice. Throughout this thesis I ask: how individuals become socially engaged, and how the strategies employed by these individuals inform the construction of tools of everyday emancipation? I address these questions through the creation of exploratory artworks, the developement of a toolkit of terms and an exposition of practices that pervade this field of production.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis examines the concept of emancipation inrelation to the writings of Jean- Paul Sartre. I interpret emancipation as a series of what I call transjormative moments. These moments reveal a conceptual continuity of Sartre's engagement with this theme which unites his early and late philosophy whilst also challenging common readings of his oeuvre. I begin the investigation by exploring the implications of Being and Nothingness as an example of what Sartre claims is an unconuerted ontology. Explicating the unique way in which Sartre presents the concepts of the "individual" and "social" I provide evidence for the varied ways in which Sartre's early writings display an awareness of power structures and social/political critique. The emancipatory devices I call transformative moments are play, and two types of Apocalypse (the festival and the group-in-fusion). I proceed with a senes of close textual readings which focus on the importance of play. Play acts as a foundation for the final two transformative moments. In both types of moments my interpretation reveals underacknowledged, recurrent motifs (appropriation and the problem of the "Self') throughout Sartre's work. Considering Sartre's controversial statement regarding the revolutionary as serious, I argue against commentators who interpret this passage as an example of political naivety. I contend that Sartre's critique of the revolutionary is a unique example of political analysis in his early writing.

Abstract:
In recent decades, international feminist activism and research has had significant success in pushing gender issues onto the international agenda and into global governance institutions and processes. The goal of gender equality is now widely accepted and codified in international legal instruments. While this appears to be a remarkable global success for feminism, widespread gender inequalities persist around the globe. This paradox has led scholars to question the extent to which feminist concepts and goals can retain their transformative potential when they are institutionalized in global governance institutions and processes. This thesis examines the institutionalization of feminist ideas in global governance through an analysis of how, and with what effects, gender equality norms are constructed, interpreted and applied in the global governance of refugees: a field that has thus far received little attention in the growing literature on feminism, gender and global governance. This aim is pursued through a case study of humanitarian aid practices in refugee camps in Bangladesh and Thailand. The study is based on interviews with humanitarian workers in these two contexts, and its theoretical framework is informed by postcolonial feminist theory and Foucauldian thought on power and governing. These analytical perspectives allows the thesis to capture how gender equality norms operate as governing tools, and situate the politics of gender equality in refugee camps in the context of global relations of power and marginalization. The findings of this thesis show that in the global governance of refugees, gender equality is rarely treated as a goal in its own right. The construction, interpretation and application of gender equality norms is mediated and shaped by the dominant governing projects in this field. Gender equality norms are either advocated on the basis of their usefulness as means for the efficient management of refugee situations, or as necessary components of a process of modernization and development of the regions from which refugees originate. These governing projects significantly limit the forms of social change and the forms of agency that are enabled. Nevertheless, gender equality norms do contribute to opening up new opportunities for refugee women and destabilizing local gendered relations of power, and they are appropriated and used by refugees in ways that challenge and go beyond humanitarian agendas.

Full text
Abstract:
During the course of the Parliamentary debates about Catholic emancipation in 1829, around 120 original, single sheet prints were published in London on the topic of Catholic Relief, at which point it was almost the sole subject of visual satire. This was the first time in living memory that a debate around toleration and the relationship between temporal and spiritual authority had been conducted on such a wide reaching scale. On 3 February 1829 the King, George IV, the head of the Anglican Church, had introduced Roman Catholic Relief in his speech for the opening of the 1829 Parliamentary session. By 13 April 1829 an Act to grant Roman Catholics civil liberty was given Royal Assent, revoking laws that prevented non-Anglicans from holding public office. This had followed four failed attempts to introduce Catholic Relief in the 1820s which had also prompted satirical image making, but never on the same scale. This thesis analyses for the first time the extensive body of prints produced in 1821-9 that relate to debates around Relief and addresses the questions: why were images produced, why were they predominately single sheet etchings, and who was so interested in Catholic emancipation as to be buying them in such quantities?

Abstract:
Observation and documentation has been used in Sweden during all of the past century, with many different purposes. The dominant purpose has been to determine the child’s development in relation to paediatrics and different theories of developmental and psychodynamic psychology. In the genealogical readings made in this study, these practices are understood as disciplinary and normalising practices. In a feminist reading of the same practices, they are understood as important tools in the constructions of a public sphere of professionalization for women. In this construction, essentialist notions of femininity and motherhood have been made to coincide with the liberation and needs of the Child as Nature in the modern society. Today the tools are used foremost as a part of evaluation processes, but also as a means to make visible children’s competence and learning-processes, within the new dominant constructivist framework. This study sets out to theoretically, historically as well as practically, investigate if it is possible to understand the practice of what we today call ‘pedagogical documentation’ as a practice which empowers children as well as teachers in their respective as well as co-operative learning-processes. In this project the researchers own learning-processes in relation to the research has also been investigated. A theoretical displacement is illustrated from a modernist understanding of the practices of observation and documentation, to a feminist poststructural position. Documented practice from Åkervägens pre-school was co-operatively researched together with three pre-school teachers. What started as a participant ethnographic study, transformed into what is conceived as a feminist poststructural research study. In the cooperative learning-processes the possibilities of understanding the tool of pedagogical documentation as a practice of continuos ’resistance’, against taken for granted or dominant meaning making and practices, was investigated. Deconstructive talks as well as collective biography work and storyline deconstructions were used with the teachers. Values and ethical notions of children as equal citizens, with rights to a pedagogical practice with possibilities to investigate their surrounding world together with other children and adults, formed the platform for this co-operative work. The study reveals the possibilities and difficulties with pedagogical documentation as a practice of ’resistance’, but also shows the obvious ‘emancipative’ effects for children and teachers. Conceiving themselves as meaning-making and knowledge-producing subjects, in processes of challenging and continuous change, had certain and important empowering effects.

This dissertation examines the various discursive expressions of black agency that formed the stereotypical representations of African descendants found in Victorian racial discourse. It is, therefore, an analysis of the discursive practices of peoples of African descent and not of the actual stereotypes frequently associated with Victorian racial discourse. I believe that a close reading and analysis of the discursive practices of peoples of African descent subject to British rule will generate more focused critical narratives about the fantasies that plagued the British imagination well into the twentieth century. This study also suggest that contemporary scholars should start looking at Victorian racial discourse as an active dialogue and conversation with the Other, rather than a description of the psychology of power.

The Consumer Packaged Goods (CPG) industry has existed for decades with a high household penetration. Individual firms started out as small family owned businesses and then gradually became more "industrialized" via acquisitions. Historically, a low capital cost of entry, as well as high geographic dispersion encouraged fragmentation of competition. Overcapacity encouraged product proliferation; relatively low profitability produced little innovation, reducing the overall loyalty of consumers to CPG products today. Consumer habits changed quickly with the introduction of new offerings, further pressuring CPG manufacturers. A key CPG issue today is how to reduce cost base and overcapacity to enable investment in innovation, and branding. Cost reduction is expected from simplification (SKU's, products, lines etc), capacity consolidation, and a reduction in the fixed cost component of production. It is the belief that value creating innovation in the industry will enable the CPG industry to regain relevance and loyalty with the consumer while being more efficient (reducing costs), and enabling the investment necessary to sustain profitable growth. The annual organic growth in the CPG industry ranges between 2-6%. This thesis analyzes the effects of technology on marketing, as a value creating catalyst for profitable growth. The analysis starts with a review of the frameworks on strategy proposed by Hax, evolutions in consumer shopping behavior by Falk, as well as developments in technology based marketing by Coviello. The thesis further reviews practical technology applications currently in the CPG field. The consumer survey section in the thesis evaluates three technology device concepts (FAST LANE, PRODUCT GPS, and AUTO REORDER) that were developed using technology lead-users. The information presented and conclusions argued in this thesis suggest that the technology device concepts have a strong value creating effect in marketing and on the business; a benefit that is appropriated to the consumer, the retailer, and the CPG manufacturer. The final pillar in the survey is an interview with two major retailers in the Boston area that validate the potential and willingness to implement such mutually value creating programs.

Abstract:
Although there has been substantial progress toward gender equality, great disparities still persist. Across the globe, women face widespread gender gaps in the division of household responsibilities, economic resources, limited access to educational opportunities, and legal and political barriers to political power. Japan is one of the countries that has been falling behind, and has for several years been facing criticism from major international organisations for the persistent gender gaps in its economy, politics, and society. Furthermore, Japan has for a long time been influenced by Confucian tradition where the emphasis has been on strong gender norms and division. In 2013, Prime Minister Shinzo Abe launched new economic policies to restart and stimulate Japan’s economic growth. He encourages an increase of active inclusion of women’s participation, and his policies came to be widely known as “Womenomics”. The ambition of this paper is to discover Prime Minister Shinzo Abe’s view on women’s role in his new policies, and to conduct a dimension analysis on “Womenomics”. The analysis is based on the theoretical framework of Confucianism and Liberal Feminism, to see whether one can discover elements of Confucianism and/or Liberal Feminism in “Womenomics”. The results indicate that the prime minister consider women’s role mostly in regards to economics, and the policies and the view on women’s role are foremost aligned with the political ideas of Liberal Feminism.

This work, entitled "Teacher Training: a study of objective conditions in the implementation of the National Plan of Teacher Training for Basic Education - PARFOR / UFMA", aimed to analyze the objective conditions for the development of courses Training Program Teachers for Basic Education (PARFOR), in the Universidade Federal do Maranhão (UFMA). Therefore, we present reflections on the subject, object of research and academic studies on teacher training. in Brazil. In addition, we discussed the training of teachers since the 1990s, as well as content, principles and requirements in the present policies that legitimize the Teacher Training Program for Basic Education (PARFOR / UFMA). We analyze the objective conditions (socioeconomic, cultural, material and human) to develop the program from the perspective of student-teachers, teacher-trainers, the course coordinators, general coordinator of the program and local coordinators of Municipal Education. We also analyze the impact on learning of student-teachers in relation to working hours and study time, from the understanding of the subjects. The work was the theoretical philosopher Theodor W. Adorno ideas about "empowerment" and " semi-formation", as well as Brazilian studies dealing with policy and teacher training as Brzenzinki (1999, 2010), Demo (1997), Dourado (2007), Frigotto and Ciavatta (2003), Gatti, Sá Barreto, André (2011), Saviani (2006), Shigunov and Maciel (2004), Zeichner (1998), Giroux (1997) and Contreras (2002), etc. . We work with documentary data sources and individual semi-structured interviews with members linked to PARFOR UFMA such as: General coordinator of PARFOR/UFMA (1); studentteachers (16); the Course Coordinators (2); teacher-trainers (8) Members of the City Department of Education (2). In total, 29 subjects were interviewed, which are part of the Teacher Training Program for Basic Education of the UFMA, in the municipalities Humberto de Campos/MA and Coroatá/MA. The results of this study revealed limitations and gaps in the implementation of the program, especially when it comes to respect for the physical, material, human and cultural, which may have influenced the learning of student teachers enrolled in the program. Therefore, we believe it is necessary to review the role and responsibility of the University, the State Department of Education and municipal education secretariats and the Union as regards the implementation of emergency teacher-training programs for basic education, to ensure a solid formation able to awaken the subject autonomy, empowerment and resistance to the dictates of the cultural industry and erudition.
O presente trabalho, intitulado “Formação de Professores: um estudo das condições objetivas na implementação do Plano Nacional de Formação de Professores para a Educação Básica – PARFOR/UFMA”, teve como objetivo analisar as condições objetivas para o desenvolvimento dos cursos do Programa de Formação de Professores para a Educação Básica (PARFOR), na Universidade Federal do Maranhão (UFMA). Para tanto, apresentamos reflexões sobre o tema, objeto de pesquisa e estudos acadêmicos sobre a formação de professores no Brasil. Além disso, discutimos a formação de professores, desde a década de 1990, como também conteúdo, princípios e exigências presentes nas Políticas que legitimam o Programa de Formação de Professores para a Educação Básica (PARFOR/UFMA). Analisamos as condições objetivas (socioeconômica, culturais, materiais e humanas) para o desenvolvimento do Programa, no olhar dos professores-alunos, dos professores-formadores, dos coordenadores de curso, coordenador geral do Programa e coordenadores locais das Secretarias Municipais de Educação. Analisamos também as repercussões na aprendizagem dos professores-alunos, no que se refere à carga horária e ao tempo de estudo, a partir do entendimento dos sujeitos pesquisados. O trabalho teve como referencial teórico as ideias do filósofo Theodor W. Adorno sobre a “emancipação” e “semiformação”, assim como pesquisas brasileiras que tratam da política e formação de professores como Brzenzinki (1999; 2010), Demo (1997), Dourado (2007), Frigotto e Ciavatta (2003), Gatti, Sá Barreto, André (2011), Saviani (2006), Shigunov e Maciel (2004), Zeichner (1998), Giroux (1997) e Contreras (2002), entre outros. Trabalhamos com fontes de dados documentais e com entrevistas individuais semiestruturadas com membros vinculados ao PARFOR da UFMA, tais como: coordenador Geral do PARFOR/UFMA (1); professores-alunos (16); Coordenadores de Curso (2); professores-formadores (8), Membros da Secretaria Municipal de Educação (2). No total, foram entrevistados 29 sujeitos, que fazem parte do Programa de Formação de Professores para a Educação Básica da UFMA, nos municípios de Humberto de Campo/MA e Coroatá/MA. Os resultados deste estudo revelaram limites e lacunas na implementação do Programa, sobretudo no que diz que respeito às condições físicas, materiais, humanas e culturais, o que pode ter influenciado na aprendizagem dos professores-alunos, matriculados no programa. Portanto, entendemos que é preciso rever o papel e a responsabilidade da Universidade, da Secretaria Estadual de Educação e das Secretarias municipais de educação, bem como da União, no que concerne à implementação de programas emergenciais de formação de professores para a Educação Básica, a fim de garantir uma formação sólida capaz de despertar nos sujeitos a autonomia, a emancipação e a resistência aos ditames da indústria cultural e da semiformação.

Abstract:

The thesis explores the ways in which residents of West Feliciana Parish, Louisiana experienced and altered race and class boundaries during the process of emancipation. Planters, laborers, and yeoman farmers all viewed emancipation as a jarring series of events and wondered how they would impact prevailing definitions of labor and property that were heavily influenced by slavery. These changes, eagerly anticipated and otherwise, shaped the experience of freedom and established its parameters, both for former slaves and their masters. Using the records of the Freedmen's Bureau and local planters, this paper focuses on three common responses to emancipation in West Feliciana: flight, alliance, and violence, suggesting ways in which those responses complicate traditional views of Reconstruction.

Full text
Abstract:
Women's participation in export-oriented industries has been one of the most dominant features in many developing countries since the 1970s. Employment in waged jobs has often been viewed as a means of women's integration into development processes. Research showed that development efforts in Third World countries negatively affected women and displaced them from their productive activities. As such, there was an increasing demand from liberal feminists and women development practitioners to integrate women into development processes through employment generation. They stressed the need for women's access to resources as the way to emancipate them from subordination. Although generation of employment through the establishment of export-oriented industries has given women access to economic resources, their participation in waged labour has given rise to a persistent debate in literature in relation to the issue of their emancipation/exploitation. This ethnographic research examines the implications of waged employment for women participating in export-oriented garment factories in Bangladesh.Within a feminist and broader social science research methodology, this study employs both qualitative and quantitative research approaches and analyses the experiences of women as factory workers, as members of the household and as members of society actively involved in day-to-day interactions with other societal members. The findings of this study reveal that the implications of waged employment for Bangladeshi women are complex and contradictory. Analysis of women's perceptions as factory workers shows that they are exploited on the factory floor in different ways and experience new forms of patriarchal domination beyond their family. Exploration of their perceptions as household members shows that earnings improve their position within the family. Although they often do not control their wages and frequently bear the double burden of productive and reproductive activities, they enjoy autonomy and freedom from familial patriarchal domination to a certain degree. In addition, women's participation in the labour market and their constant presence in the male dominated spaces are incessantly contesting the traditional notions of gender practices and meanings in Bangladeshi society. This situation also influences women to challenge male authority to an extent. Even though the challenges are not widespread, these may create new possibilities for women in society.

Abstract:
In some of the most established and supposedly immutable liberal democracies, diverse social groups are losing con fi dence not only in established democratic institutions, but in the idea of liberal representative democracy itself. Meanwhile, an illiberal and anti-egalitarian transformation of democracy evolves at an apparently unstoppable pace. This democratic fatigue syndrome , the present article suggests, is qualitatively di ff erent from the crises of Democracy which have been debated for some considerable time. Focusing on mature democracies underpinned by the ideational tradition of European Enlightenment, the article theorizes this Syndrome and the striking transformation of democracy in terms of a dialectic process in which the very norm that once gave birth to the democratic project - the modernist idea of the autonomous subject - metamorphoses into its gravedigger, or at least into the driver of its radical reformulation. The article further develops aspects of my existing work on second-order emancipation and simulative democracy . Taking a theoretical rather than empirical approach, it aims to provide a conceptual framework for more empirically oriented analyses of changing forms of political articulation and participation.

Abstract:
Louisiana's Red River region was shaped by and founded on the logic of racial power, the economics of slavery, and white supremacy. The alluvial soil provided wealth for the mobile, market-driven slaveholders but created a cold, brutal world for the commoditized slaves that cleared the land and cultivated cotton. Racial bondage defined the region, and slaveholders' commitment to mastery and Confederate doctrine continued after the Civil War. This work argues that when freedom arrived, this unbroken fidelity to mastery and to the inheritances and ideology of slavery gave rise to a visceral regime of violence. Continuity, not change, characterized the region. The Red River played a significant role in regional settlement and protecting this distorted racial dynamic. Racial bondage grounded the region's economy and formed the heart of white identity and black exploitation. Here, the long arcs of mastery, racial conditioning, and ideological continuities were deeply entrenched even as the nation underwent profound changes from 1820 to 1880. In this thesis, the election of 1860, the Civil War, and emancipation are not viewed as fundamental breaks or compartmentalized epochs in southern history. By contrast, on plantations along the Red River, both racial mastery and power endured after emancipation. Based on extensive archival research, this thesis considers how politics, racial ideologies, and environmental and financial drivers impacted the nature of slavery, Confederate commitment, and the parameters of freedom in this region, and by extension, the nation. Widespread Reconstruction violence climaxed with the Colfax Massacre and firmly cemented white power, vigilantism, and racial dominance within the regional culture. Freedpeople were relegated to the margins as whites reasserted their control over Reconstruction. The violent and contested nature of freedom highlighted the adherence to the power structure and ideological inheritances of slavery. From bondage to freedom, the Red River region remained unreconstructed.
