This article is part of a theoretical discussion triggered off by a research thesis within a PhD Social Psychology Program. The aim of the research was, among others, to investigate the educational inequalities among Brazilian black population. The study highlights the educational unevenness amidst this population, as imparities regarding access to schooling and lack of formal learning. Contemporary literature on ethnic-racial relations and theoretical contributions to educational inequalities were reviewed, in addition to Brazilian legislation. Regarding methodology, Depth Hermeneutics, as proposed by Thompson (2011), was employed, as well as the content analysis based upon Bardin (2011). In conclusion, it would appear that educational inequality among Brazilian black population was subjected to transformations during different sociohistorical contexts from one legislation to another. Official actions taken to eliminate racial inequality, in general, are hovered by an inclusion/exclusion binomial.

The research aimed to investigate the tensions and paradoxes that characterize the struggle of the Homeless People National Movement (MNPR, the acronym in Portuguese). Its focus was a unit of the movement, located in an average city in the south of Brazil. Data analyzed were gathered during the participation in MNPR meetings and formal and informal conversations with 25 homeless people, or people with a homelessness experience. Dialogical interaction analysis was the methodology of choice. Five paradoxes were identified: 1) the condition of discomfort, concurrent with recognizing the importance of the place occupied by the movement’s leadership; 2) the tension between being on the streets and being in the institutionalized spaces of struggle; 3) the contradiction between singular life projects and the need to fight for change concerning all; 4) the tension, visibility and invisibility of homeless people; 5) the contradiction between living on the streets and being able/willing to get out of this condition, with the risk of not being recognized by peers and not taking part in the struggle. Despite the paradoxes, the research highlights the importance of MNPR concerning the fight for social, political and human rights to homeless people.

Nos últimos anos, tornou-se lugar comum declarar que a dominação ocorrepor meio de eixos múltiplos, em que gênero, classe, raça e sexualidade seinterseccionam um com o outro. Ainda que haja muitos trabalhos empíricosinteressantes produzidos a partir da premissa da interseccionalidade,raramente estes se encontram vinculados à tradição anarquista que osprecede. Neste artigo, gostaria de articular esse ponto, mostrando a utilidade,mas também os limites da noção de interseccionalidade, para entenderos mecanismos de dominação e, depois, discutir a necessidade de umprograma de pesquisa anarcofeminista. Em segundo lugar, tentarei fornecera estrutura filosófica para tal empreendimento, argumentando que é naontologia spinozista do transindividual que podemos encontrar os recursosconceituais para pensar sobre a natureza plural dos corpos das mulheres e,portanto, sobre sua opressão. Isso permitirá que eu tente articular a questãode “o que significa ser uma mulher” em termos pluralistas e, assim, tambémdefender uma forma especificamente feminista de anarquismo. Concluindo,retomarei a tradição anarcofeminista para demonstrar por que ela é hojea melhor aliada possível do feminismo na busca de uma teoria crítica dasociedade.

This article aimed to identify actions in the Family Health Strategies (FHS) to face violence against women. An integrative review of articles published between 2011 and 2016 was carried out in the following databases: Latin American and Caribbean Literature in Health Sciences (Lilacs), Nursing Database (Bdenf), Index Psychology - Technical-Scientific Periodicals and Network Pan American Institute of Information and Documentation in Sanitary Engineering and Environmental Sciences (Repidisca). Thirteen (13) out of the twenty-nine (29) articles we studied were selected for analysis according to the categories: “network with women in situation of violence” and “limits and professional needs to face gender violence”. The review shows failures in the training of health professionals for the diagnosis and intervention in cases of gender violence, and lack of connection between the social protection network and the family health teams in the care of women victims of violence.

The aim of this study was to investigate the narratives of women who conceived with the help of assisted reproductive technologies (ART), and the impact of this treatment on the experience of pregnancy. Twenty-four women in the third trimester of pregnancy, all subjected to different ART, were interviewed. Data were submitted and evaluated using narrative analysis. Topics such a greater appreciation of pregnancy because of the treatment, the fear of losing the baby, the possibility of having twins, the social prejudice against ART, and the attempts to naturalize this experience were highlighted. The explicit non-recognition of the treatment’s impact stood out. However, the participants expressed this impact when reporting feelings and expectations in their narratives. The results suggest the importance of a mental health professional taking part in this process.  

We conducted a narrative research to understand the experienced world of young women who attempted suicide. In the period from October 2019 to March 2020, interviews were conducted with twelve women who attempted suicide at least once and were admitted to the André Luiz Spiritist Hospital in Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais. The age of the participants ranged from 20 to 29 years old. The analysis of the interviews was guided by the principle of the singular treatment of each story, highlighting episodes that cut across all of them. It presented results in transversal axes: sexual abuse, violence in affective relationships, and violence experienced in family relationships. The narratives pointed out that there is a significant relationship between women in situations of violence and suicide attempt. However, the possibilities of understanding the phenomenon have not been exhausted, since we are facing multilayered problems.

This article is an excerpt from a research that, from a psychoanalytic perspective, listened to women considering what was said and what was silenced about their maternity. Contacted through a social and professional network, the women-mothers were interviewed by considering the ethics and the following concepts of psychoanalysis: unconscious, free association, and transference. Among the results, it was possible to find the phenomenon of speech error, in which the words and expressions that are used repeatedly in speech pass through the discourse, filling absences, reducing discontinuities, searching for the lost meaning. We use the word “unsaid” to characterize these expressions that contradict social ideas, and, or, what is expected from these women by themselves, and also by others, for their maternities. In the plot of the unsaid, it is possible to find affections expressed by different psychic instances, in the construction of each woman with the feminine and maternity

This article presents the psychosocial reality of unemployment and its impacts on the lives of graduates of Agostinho Neto University, in the city of Luanda, Angola. It synthesizes the ideas built from the research carried out in that city, from 2010 to 2012. It was based on a field research, with a qualitative approach, about the meanings of the unemployed condition, in which 15 graduates from the following courses have been interviewed: Accounting and Auditing, Law, Economy, Philosophy, Physics, Public Management and Administration, Languages and literature, Math, Pedagogy and Sociology. The sample of participants was given through the snowball strategy. The discussion revolved around the concepts of employment and unemployment, having a theoretical framework based on the following authors: Araújo (2010), Beck (2010), Castel (2006), Gaulejac (2006), Jahoda (1987), Lhuilier (2011), Sanchis (1997) and Santos (2008). Documentary research was also used. The discussion of the interview data was carried out through content analysis, by Bardin, (2004). The results of the research demonstrate that unemployment causes difficulties for graduates to enter society and carry out their life projects. It was also found that university education, in Angola, ends up training students for unemployment and a series of professional uncertainties.

O presente estudo teve por objetivo realizar uma investigação acercado impacto da representação da sobrecarga, elaborada por cuidadoresdiretos de pacientes crônicos, na adesão aos serviços alternativospropostos em oposição ao modelo hospitalocêntrico. Asobrecarga se refere à presença de problemas, dificuldades ou eventosadversos que afetam significativamente a vida dos familiares oucuidadores responsáveis pelo paciente, e corresponde ao elementodo sofrimento explicitamente atribuído ao paciente. Participaramdo estudo dez cuidadores considerados aderentes e nove considerados“não-aderentes”, que foram submetidos a uma entrevista semi-diretiva, centrada nas diferentes dimensões da sobrecarga descritosna literatura. Os resultados nos permitem supor que a sobrecargaemocional é percebida como sendo a mais difícil de enfrentare indicam a existência de seu efeito sobre a adesão. Por outro ladoas variáveis de gênero e classe social aparecem como macro reguladoresdesta sobrecarga.

Como os cuidados, em sua maioria, são dispensados por mulheres, tende-se a considerar o amor (aos doentes, às crianças) “natural” e normal. Ora, o trabalho de cuidar pode igualmente gerar ódio às pessoas dependentes. Esse não é menos normal do que o amor. O fato de levá-lo em consideração modifica a análise das situações de cuidados. Por enquanto, o ódio se mantém oculto nas tradições sábias, particularmente nas teorias da ética do devotamento, como nos testemunhos das trabalhadoras, tirados de uma pesquisa realizada com auxiliares de puericultura. Disso resulta um déficit de visibilidade do trabalho, o que leva a esconder o ódio e a violência.

Esta pesquisa se propôs a compreender o significado do abandono para as crianças institucionalizadas – cinco crianças entre sete e onze anos de idade, sendo duas do sexo feminino e três do sexo masculino, que se encontram em uma instituição de abrigo da cidade de Goiânia (GO). A psicologia histórico-cultural de Vigotsky, fundamentada no pensamento dialético, norteou esta pesquisa, seguindo os princípios epistemológicos desenvolvidos por Gonzalez Rey. Os recursos metodológicos utilizados foram: a entrevista semi-estruturada, a observação participante e a pesquisa documental. Com base na investigação realizada, três categorias de significados se evidenciaram: a invisibilidade, a transgressão e os vínculos afetivos. Constatou-se na pesquisa que a “voz” das crianças é marcada pela invisibilidade e que raramente alcança os dirigentes das instituições. Para tanto, faz-se necessário pensar políticas públicas para além da perspectiva adultocêntrica, a fim de melhor atender às crianças.

Atualmente, o saber reconhecido é aquele que se afirma em nome da ciência. Vários ‘especialistas’ freqüentam a mídia oferecendo saber sobre tudo e todos – médicos, psicanalistas, psicólogos, educadores, entre outros. No caso dos adolescentes, uma conseqüência disso, evidenciada na clínica, são as dificuldades dos pais, desautorizados para assumir a responsabilidade inerente ao lugar que ocupam: buscando ‘acertar’, temendo perder o amor dos filhos, alguns praticamente renunciam a educá-los, deixando essa tarefa a cargo da escola, que não tem vocação nem competência para tal. Ao mesmo tempo, em nome de uma pretensa independência dos filhos, terminam, muitas vezes, por deixá-los sozinhos, no desamparo. O desafio que o trabalho com esses pais nos coloca é, com base no saber específico do qual dispomos, o da psicanálise, fazer valer a “douta-ignorância”, atribuindo saber, mesmo que suposto, ao sujeito que nos fala. Uma orientação despida de qualquer objetivo pedagógico especifica essa modalidade de atendimento.
