The ideas of religion and ethnic background marked a division between the colonists that were and were not entitled to buy lands in the Porto Novo colony. The access to a colonial parcel was restricted to the Catholic German descendents. It demostrates the intention of the colony organizers, the German jesuits fromSão Leopoldo RS, to form an ethnic and religious homogeneity community. Thisarticle analyzes the meaning of ethnic and religious homogeneity present in the colony formation.

The purpose of this study is to bring the reader information about the Social Work that dominated the Developmentalist phase of Argentina and during the movement for Reconceptualization in order to see the connection between both periods and evaluate if it is possible to say that they were characterized by counter positions or by a phase of questioning that was necessary for a deep change. The paper also seeks to demystify the idea of the developmentalist social worker in contrast with the reconceputalized social worker as if there was a duel between good and evil since it was among the developmentalist social workers that questioning and criticism began to give way to the Reconceputalization, a movement which is very important within our professional collective.

This article conducts a review of the institutionalization of Social Work as a profession in Uruguay from 1940-1960. Using a genealogical perspective it analyses the relations and articulations that were established in Uruguay after World War II among the social historic trajectories, the transformations in the etiological models that organize knowledge in the field of public health. The paper also looks at the new institutionality which, under the influence of a Pan American strategy led by the United States, allowed for the installation of new instruments of power (in the Foucaultian sense) that included the redefinition of a number of professional fields, including Social Work.

This paper aims to understand women living with HIV and the way they make sense out of their experiences after the diagnosis of infection. It were conducted interviews with five women, users of a outpatient care in a northeastern capital, whose analysis was based on the methodologic and theory referential of the feminist perspective and in the Discursive Practices and Production of Senses. It were constructed dialogical maps composed by three thematic based on the proposed objectives and it has been analyzed how gender issues, inside a patriarchal and heteronormative society, affect the health care practices and health care. The results reveal for the existence of moral judgement and prejudices that it goes through and challenge the handle of self-care of these women.

This is a qualitative research that investigates the meaning social workers attribute to childhood social intervention considering the current context of social issues in Chile. The study sought to learn how social workers describe the socio-political and economic context in which they operate, as well as the values and purposes that base their social intervention. The results show an increasingly complex and challenging scenario of intervention in the social sphere, marked by phenomena such as violence, weakness of community ties, and severe mental health problems. The workers’ intervention currently occurs in risky and precarious environments, in labor relations that are also precarious, which negatively affect the quality of the professional activities. Also, the study reveals that public policies implemented are not appropriate to ensure the rights of vulnerable children.

Professor Margarida Barreto has a PhD and teaches at the Faculdade de Ciências Médicas da Santa Casa (Santa Casa School of Medical Sciences) São Paulo. The interviewee is one of the pioneers of the study on moral harassment at work. In this interview, Margarida Barreto explains what is moral harassment, how to recognize it, and how the labor reform (Brazilian Law 13429/2017 and Law 13467/2017) may aggravate the problem by enabling a context that favors moral harassment and other harm to workers’ health, especially the challenges posed to workers’ unions.

The force of friction is part of the daily life of the students and the understanding of their action on the bodies in the day-to-day brings the Science of their experience. We discuss the one-dimensional motion of two particles moving in opposite directions under the action of external kinetic friction forces. The law of the conservation of the total linear momentum involving these particles under the action of external dissipative forces is not discussed in general in the textbooks of Newtonian Mechanics used in upper and middle schools, in brazilian educational institutions.  We show that the conservation of the linear momentum of the set formed by the two particles under the action of two kinetic friction forces only occurs when their movement is unidimensional and in opposite direction. In this work, the conservation of the velocity of the CM is verified experimentally in a simple apparatus of low cost, which can be easily reproduced in the classroom as a strategy for encourage students to work with mathematical tools and experimental methods in order to discuss situations that include the frictional forces that belong to the day life of the student.

This article is grounded on the critic social theory, and analyzes the content presented in the Brazilian National Plans of Education (2001-2010 and 2014-2024) and the Education Development Plan (2007) regarding the relationship between education and work. Documentary research aimed to identify the political perspectives that establish this relationship in a context of crisis of capitalism and regression of rights around the world and, particularly, in Brazil. The results show that updating and strengthening education is essential to prepare the workforce in line with the new needs of the sphere of production, a relation that is often disguised by the discourse and defense of citizenship, law, and humanistic values.

This study shows the process of resistance to assimilate the management of the Federal University of Santa Catarina’s(UFSC) University Hospital (HU) by the Brazilian Company of Hospital Services (EBSERH), as well as reporting the first years ofthis experience. The first part of the article discusses the managerialist logic applied in public policies as a supposed solution to thestate’s economic crisis. The second part describes the tensions in the debate between groups in favor and against EBSERH taking overHU’s management, until the moment the University Board voted in favor of EBSERH management. The article presents some elementsof the three years of EBSERH’s management of the hospital. The study shows that the promises established in the contract betweenUFSC and EBSERH have not been fulfilled because of political, economic, and administrative barriers since 2016. Therefore, there wasa timid expansion in the number of beds and services, staff, and technology, affecting the fulfillment of HU as a teaching hospital and aservice provider as part of the Brazilian Unified Healthcare System (SUS).

This article presents elements for understanding past and present Mexican mural art as an integral part of twentieth-century Latin American and Caribbean critical thinking, and the impact of its contributions to political actors from various areas throughout the class struggle of the 21st-century. A bibliographical historical-critical review of both muralism and the Marxist theory of dependency was conducted. The study brings into dialogue two insights: the engaged political art of Mexican muralism and revolutionary militant praxis of the theory of dependency. The debate of muralist political art from the Mexican school is perceived as a fertile reference of Latin American Marxism, based on the centrality that this art gave to the history of resistance and revolutions as counterpoints to hegemonic history in the colonial invasion and throughout the following period. The guiding question of this discussion is: What does Mexican muralism have to teach us in the 21st century?

This text aims reflect apon some variables which may contribute to understandng of the integralist movememnt and effecs of its ideas in Campos Gerais during the thirties and fifties.

This article aims to demonstrate relationships between the formation of experiential groups with non-coercive characteristics and the social skills favoring public high school students. Positive social exchanges are related to self-care and mutual respect, essential for adolescents and young people to stay in school. The right to education thus permeates the investment in motivational conditions built in the school environment. The study was interdisciplinary action research, adopting a qualitative approach. It used the experiential learning method, forming four experiential groups, with a total of 67 participants gathered in ten meetings. Through descriptive reports and observational data, it was possible to identify interrelationships between the revision of personal meanings and the school’s role. The findings reinforced the need to emphasize interpersonal exchanges that lead to securing rights regarding the personal and social investment represented by staying in school.

This paper applies methods and concepts of Global and Transnational History to reflect on the Asian-African Conference of Bandung, Indonesia, in 1955, as an emblematic case of the global relations behind the appropriation and meaning of denominations such as Third World and Afro-Asian movement.  We believe in the potentiality of this event for the construction of connected narratives. Disputes over the place of leadership, external participation to the group officially represented, as well as the repercussions and efforts to insert the event into non-Statewise mobilization agendas such as Pan-Africanism are approached through sources produced during the Congress, as well as through articles by the press and analysts. Ultimately, this paper argues for the importance of complexifying the analysis of the participants of international politics introduced by the Afro-Asian Conference, problematizing categories normally accepted as dominant for political action in the period and broadening the perception of the field of International Relations as a whole.

This paper aims to undertake a reflection on fear as a central political affection. This affection builds social bonds, as from interpersonal relations, as well from the broader point of view of political relations. It also discusses the facets of insecurity in contemporary times, the appropriation of the discourse and the practices of fear and insecurity by the neoliberal state and the Capital. Furthermore, it shed light on the relationship between fear and adherence to conservative and authoritarian political positions and propositions. In order to do so, it uses Critical theory for considering the way social life and political experience mobilize affections, with particular attention on contemporary fear. Empirical research evidence corroborates, directly or indirectly, the relationship between fear and support for authoritarianism.

We intend to deal with the peculiar way in which Lukacs, in his writings which would result in the essential of History and class consciousness, deals with Morality and Law. The criticism of Hegelian ethics leads the Hungarian author to a rather great emphasis on individual action and responsibility to the extent that there would be, on the one hand, an abyss between moral action and revolution, on the other, an immediate unity between the two. With what the brazilian philosopher José Chasin called immanent analysis we will show how morality and Law relate themselves at Lukács´work of 1919.
