[pt] A tese, pelas lentes do pensamento decolonial afrodiaspórico compromissado com a ladino-amefricanidade, possui o objetivo de analisar como a matriz colonial de poder estrutura o pensamento jurídico brasileiro dentro do espaço que, com base no eurocentrismo, imprime autoridade e validade científica a essa produção, ou seja, a academia jurídica. A partir dessas apreciações, examina-se a materialização das colonialidades, incluído a do gênero, do poder, do saber e do ser, refletindo-se sobre a geo(corpo)política do conhecimento no programas de pós-graduação strictu sensu em direito no Brasil, por meio de delineamento do perfil dominante no corpo docente, no corpo discente e dos mecanismos utilizados para fissurar a matriz colonial do poder dentro desse ambiente e/ou para manter pactos narcísicos que estruturam a(s) colonialidade(s). Em que se utilizou uma pesquisa multinível, quantitativa-qualitativa, na parte quantitativa mapeou-se o perfil docente e discente dos PPGDS, com base nos dados oficiais constantes na plataforma Sucupira e na parte qualitativa, por meio da análise dos documentos nos sites oficiais dos programas e da aplicação de duas pesquisas surveys – uma realizada com docentes e outra com discentes dos programas, descreve-se e explora-se a composição desses espaços e as estratégias que buscam romper com a modernidade/colonialidade neste campo. / [en] Throughout the lenses of decolonial thinking and committed to amefricanity, the thesis aims to analyze how the colonial global power shapes the Brazilian legal thought within the space that enforces scientific authority and validity on this production based on Eurocentrism, which is the law academy. Through these premisses, it analyzes the materialization of colonialities, including gender, power, knowledge and being, examining the geopolitics of knowledge in the postgraduate programs within law academy in Brazil, using an analysis from the profile of the professors and the students and the mechanisms applied to ensure the colonial global power within that place and /or to maintain narcissistic pacts that structure the coloniality(ies). Using a multi-level, quantative-qualitative research, the quantitative part of the PPGDS teacher and student profile was mapped based on the official data from the Sucupira platform and, on the qualitative part, through the analysis of the documents from the official sites of the programs and the application of two surveys - one applied to professors and the other to students of the programs, both of them which describe and explore the composition of these spaces and the strategies that seek rupture with modernity /coloniality in this field. / [es] La tesis, por las lentes del pensamiento decolonial afrodías comprometido con la ladino-amefricanidad, tiene el objetivo de analizar cómo la matriz colonial de poder estructura el pensamiento jurídico brasileño dentro del espacio que, con base en el eurocentrismo, imprime autoridad y validez científica a esa producción, es decir, la academia jurídica. A partir de esas apreciaciones, se examina la materialización de las colonialidades, incluida la del género, del poder, del saber y del ser, reflejándose sobre la geopolítica del conocimiento en los programas de postgrado strictu sensu en derecho por medio de delineamiento del perfil dominante en docente, en el discente y de los mecanismos utilizados para fisurar la matriz colonial del poder dentro de ese ambiente y/o para mantener pactos narcísicos que estructuran la (s) colonialidad (s).

[pt] Esta tese discorre sobre os processos de construção da identidade ocupacional de trancistas afro. Como esse grupo ocupacional tem elaborado suas identidades a partir do estabelecimento de fronteiras em relação a categoria ocupacional de cabeleireira. O estudo investiga, por meio de depoimentos das trancistas, os motivos que as levam a considerarem sua ocupação distinta da ocupação de cabeleireira. Apresenta um breve panorama dos usos políticos, sociais, culturais, históricos e religiosos dos penteados trançados e afro. Discute como os fluxos do Atlântico Negro estão presentes de diversas maneiras no universo de trabalho das trancistas e na elaboração de suas identidades negras. Aborda as técnicas corporais e manuais que distinguem e assemelham a atividade laborativa das trancistas do trabalho das cabeleireiras, articulando categorias como raça, classe e gênero para explicar as condições sociais e econômicas em que o grupo está inserido. Revela a profissionalização da ocupação das trancista a partir da institucionalização do processo de ensino-aprendizagem através dos cursos para trancistas. Evidencia como os cursos para trancistas se configuram como espaços de formações antirracistas, decoloniais e, sobretudo, espaços seguros para mulheres negras. Reflete sobre o uso corrente das categorias nativas, tais como: assinatura de um penteado, camuflagem das tranças e dom para trançar. O referencial teórico da pesquisa foram trabalhos do campo da Antropologia Social, Antropologia e Sociologia do Corpo, Antropologia dos Sentidos, Relações Étnico-raciais, Feminismos Negros, Decolonialidade e Estudos Pós-culturais. Os métodos e técnicas de pesquisas utilizados foram o caderno de campo, observação participante, entrevistas semiestruturadas, revisão de literatura e levantamento bibliográfico. / [en] This thesis discusses the processes of construction of afro hair braiders occupational identity, and how they have developed their identities based on the establishment of frontiers in relation to the occupational category of hairdressers. The study investigates, by means of hair braiders reports, the reasons why they consider their occupation more than just hairdressing. It presents a brief overview of the political, social, cultural, historical and religious uses of braided and afro hairstyles. It also discusses how the Black Atlantic is present in distinct ways in the work universe of hair braiders and in the development of their black identities. It focus the analysis on the body and manual techniques that get the hair braiders work activity closer to or apart from the activity of hairdressers, articulating categories such as race, class and gender to explain the social and economic conditions structurally assigned to the group. It supports the idea that hair braiding became a profession due to a teaching/learning process established by courses for hair braiders, which become anti-racist, decolonial and, most of all, safe educational spaces for black women. In addition, the research discusses the current use of native categories, such as, a signature hairstyle, camouflage braids and gift for making braids. The research is backed up by theoretical references from the field of Social Anthropology, Anthropology and Sociology of the Body, Anthropology of the Senses, Ethnic-Racial Relations, Black Feminisms, Decoloniality, and Post-Cultural Studies. The research methods and techniques used in the project included field notes, participant observation, semi-structured interviews, literature review and bibliographic survey.

Reverse mission? : Einführung in afrikanische Perspektiven und die Rezeption in Deutschland / Reverse mission? : introduction to African perspectives and the reception in Germany

Ehmann, Matthias 02 1900 (has links)
Text in German, summaries in German and English / Die Arbeit beschreibt und reflektiert aus missionswissenschaftlicher Perspektive das häufig mit „reverse mission“ bezeichnete Phänomen afrikanischer Mission in Europa. Dafür beschreibt und vergleicht sie drei relevante Perspektiven afrikanischen Ursprungs, um das noch wenig untersuchte Phänomen wissenschaftlich zu fassen. Anschließend wer-den die Ergebnisse missionswissenschaftlich gedeutet und die Rezeption des Phänomens in der deutschsprachigen Theologie und in der deutschen kirchlichen Landschaft unter-sucht. So wird identifiziert, welche Aspekte des internationalen Diskurses in Deutschland besondere Beachtung finden und welche missionstheologischen Positionen dazu vertre-ten werden. Davon ausgehend werden Perspektiven und Desiderate auf dem Weg zu einer multikulturellen Missionsbewegung benannt. / The study describes and reflects a phenomenon of African Missions to Europe, which is often called “reverse mission”, from a missiological perspective. For this purpose it describes and compares three relevant Africanrooted perspectives in order to catch this not jet well researched phenomenon. The results are interpreted missiological and the reception of the phenomenon in German speaking theology and in German churches is researched in order to identify, which aspects of the international discourse are attracting special interest in Germany and which missiological views are advanced. On that basis perspectives and desiderata for the future discourse on the way to a multicultural mission movement are named. / Christian Spirituality, Church History and Missiology / M. Th.

States of nomadism, conditions of diaspora : studies in writing between South Africa and the United States, 1913-1936.

Courau, Rogier Philippe. January 2008 (has links)
Using the theoretical idea of ‘writing between’ to describe the condition of the travelling subject, this study attempts to chart some of the literary, intellectual and cultural connections that exist(ed) between black South African intellectuals and writers, and the experiences of their African- American counterparts in their common movements towards civil liberty, enfranchisement and valorised consciousness. The years 1913-1936 saw important historical events taking place in the United States, South Africa and the world – and their effects on the peoples of the African diaspora were signficant. Such events elicited unified black diasporic responses to colonial hegemony. Using theories of transatlantic/transnational cultural negotiation as a starting point, conceptualisations that map out, and give context to, the connections between transcontinental black experiences of slavery and subjugation, this study seeks to re-envisage such black South African and African-American intellectual discourses through reading them anew. These texts have been re-covered and re-situated, are both published and unpublished, and engage the notion of travel and the instability of transatlantic voyaging in the liminal state of ‘writing between’. With my particular regional focus, I explore the cultural and intellectual politics of these diasporic interrelations in the form of case studies of texts from several genres, including fiction and autobiography. They are: the travel writings of Xhosa intellectual, DDT Jabavu, with a focus on his 1913 journey to the United States; an analysis of Ethelreda Lewis’s novel, Wild Deer (1933), which imagines the visit of an African-American musician, Paul Robeson-like figure to South Africa; and Eslanda Goode Robeson’s representation of her African Journey (1945) to the country in 1936, and the traveller’s gaze as expressed through the ethnographic imagination, or the anthropological ‘eye’ in the text. / Thesis (Ph.D.)-University of KwaZulu-Natal, Pietermaritzburg, 2008.

Faire avancer la communauté: diasporas africaines et associationnisme panafricain en Belgique / Bringing the community forward: African diasporas and Pan-African associationism in Belgium

Grégoire, Nicole 21 February 2013 (has links)
En Belgique, à l’instar d’autres populations d’origine immigrée, les populations d’origine africaine subsaharienne font face à une relative impuissance. Cette dernière peut-être déterminée en fonction de critères tels que l’accès à l’emploi, au logement, à l’enseignement, ou encore le statut juridico-politique. Dans ma thèse, je m’intéresse aux stratégies mises en place par ces populations afin d’améliorer collectivement leur sort. J’articule la question des conséquences sociales et culturelles de la migration en termes de dialectique de l’identification, focalisée notamment sur l’utilisation couramment synonymique des catégories ethno-raciales « africain », « subsaharien » et « noir », avec celle des formes de l’action collective dégagées dans le cadre des social movement studies. Ma réflexion part d’une proposition théorique formulée de façon synthétique par Pnina Werbner et suggérant que, malgré le climat concurrentiel que la formation et l’expansion d’associations ethniques peut générer, leur développement et leur mise en relation constituerait les prémices incontournables d’éventuelles actions collectives protestataires. Pour Pnina Werbner, cette mise en réseau des associations, si elle s’assortit d’un processus de « convergence idéologique », peut donner lieu à des mobilisations. J’ai enrichi cette proposition de deux manières :d’une part, en affinant la notion de convergence idéologique au moyen de la littérature sur le cadrage et le processus d’alignement des cadres dans la mobilisation collective, et, d’autre part, en articulant dans mon analyse les trois courants théoriques centraux des recherches sur des mouvements sociaux – structure des opportunités politiques, mobilisations des ressources, cadres de l’action collective.<p><p>J’ai ainsi montré que le système politique belge était globalement à la fois favorable à l’expression de potentiels mouvements sociaux issus de l’immigration et peu ouvert à leur reconnaissance officielle. J’ai également mis en évidence que les niveaux infra-nationaux et supra-nationaux véhiculaient des opportunités politiques spécifiques. Je me suis ensuite penchée sur la façon dont les différentes opportunités et contraintes politiques mises à jour ont été saisies par deux associations « africaines » soucieuses de former un groupe d’intérêt représentant l’ensemble de la collectivité d’origine africaine subsaharienne, et sur les conséquences organisationnelles de ces choix. Ces études de cas m’ont permis de mettre en exergue le répertoire d’action accommodateur dans lequel ces organisations s’inscrivent, et la relation de leurs membres avec la structure des opportunités politiques. J’ai souligné comment certaines de ces opportunités, dans la façon dont elles ont été réappropriées par les leaders associatifs, ont eu un impact négatif sur la cohésion interne de leurs associations. Aussi, en me penchant plus spécifiquement sur la façon dont les différentes parties prenantes de ces organisations donnent sens aux activités de celles-ci, j’ai montré que les objectifs de ces associations étaient, de façon générale, investis de sens fort différents par les acteurs, y compris au sein des collèges d’administrateurs. Dans la lignée des travaux de Michael Herzfeld, les résultats de ma recherche soulignent la relation disémique inévitable entre la volonté de représentation communautaire officielle et les pratiques internes à la collectivité. Depuis quelques années, les entrepreneurs de représentation de cette collectivité tâchent d’amenuiser cette disémie en engageant leurs associations respectives, rebaptisées « panafricaines », dans des actions collectives. L’analyse de ces actions rend compte de la construction d’un « répertoire symbolique commun » qui se décline autour du référent panafricain et de politiques identitaires pragmatiques. Enfin, j’ai identifié les formes de sociabilité plutôt élitaires du réseau associatif « panafricain » comme une limite de son extension.<p><p>Ces développements empiriques montrent tout l’intérêt d’observer largement « l’espace des mouvements sociaux », c’est-à-dire la trajectoire des organisations et des acteurs susceptibles de donner forme à l’action collective. Ce faisant, mon travail contribue à décloisonner des études sur les mouvements sociaux trop souvent cantonnées aux actions protestataires directement menées contre l’autorité publique. / Doctorat en Sciences politiques et sociales / info:eu-repo/semantics/nonPublished
