It is a regular topic in the Brazilian pop-rock songs in the same period, too. Those Brazilian and international pop-rock songs have built a romantic love imaginary that has been disseminated by the cultural industry and mass communication media. In this research, we look for understanding the processes that have participated in the building of the Brazilian pop-rock songs imaginary, based on their lyrics and music, and in the histories, tastes, world visions and networks of a group of Brazilians composers that are representatives of this kind of song. This research looks for understanding through the imaginary the cultural identification process established among the composers and the audience of these songs. The mapping of romantic love imaginaries and the investigation of their construction processes can be revealing of a individual feeling of sharing and belongingness to specific imaginaries in the songs universe. The hypothesis is that the Brazilian pop-rock imaginary is produced by world visions convergence and by seduction, cultural identification and adhesion of composers and audiences to a specific musical ethos, that transcend boarders and result in an aesthetic, ethic and behavior approximation between Brazilian and international pop-rock songs. The investigation maps the romantic love imaginaries in the international pop-rock hits, in the second half of 20th century, and that built in the Erasmo Carlos, Rita Lee, Lobão and Pato Fu songs, Brazilian composers representatives of these musical genres in the same period. The investigation looks for identifying, using a semantic romantic love mapping, what are the main symbolical elements in these imaginaries that came from the creative processes of Brazilian composers, and became references of the approaching between Brazilian and international pop-rock songs. The theoretical reference in this research brings authors in the imaginary field, such as Gilbert Durand and Michel Maffesoli, semiotics, such as Charles Sanders Peirce, Roland Barthes and Umberto Eco, and culture and communications, such as Jesus Martín-Barbero and Stuart Hall. The conclusion shows how songs and creative processes of Brazilian composers built a romantic love imaginary that could be a expression of the feeling of belongingness and cultural identification process, that brings closer local and global aesthetics, ethics and behaviors established by successful songs / O amor romântico é um dos temas mais presentes no pop-rock internacional de maior sucesso desde os anos 1950. Ele também é um tema frequente no pop-rock brasileiro que fez sucesso no mesmo período. As canções do pop-rock brasileiro e internacional construíram imaginários do amor romântico que foram disseminados e compartilhados pelos meios de comunicação de massa e pela indústria cultural. Nesta pesquisa, procura-se compreender os elementos que participaram da construção desse imaginário no pop-rock brasileiro, a partir das letras, das músicas, das trajetórias, dos gostos, das visões de mundo e das redes de relações de um grupo de compositores brasileiros representativos desse tipo de canção midiática. A investigação busca entender também, através do imaginário, o processo de identificação cultural entre os criadores e os apreciadores dessas canções. O mapeamento dos imaginários do amor romântico e a investigação de como eles foram construídos podem ser reveladores de como ocorre o processo de adesão dos indivíduos, incluindo os compositores, a determinados éthos que se constituem tendo a canção midiática como elemento central. A investigação parte da hipótese de que o imaginário que emerge do poprock brasileiro é fruto de uma convergência de visões de mundo e de um processo de identificação cultural e adesão de criadores e apreciadores a determinados éthos musicais, que transcendem fronteiras e resultam em uma aproximação estética, ética e de costumes entre o pop-rock brasileiro e o internacional. A investigação mapeia os imaginários do amor romântico que surgem no pop-rock internacional de sucesso, da segunda metade do século 20, e aquele construído nas canções de Erasmo Carlos, Rita Lee, Lobão e Pato Fu, compositores brasileiros representativos desses gêneros no mesmo período. A partir da realização de uma cartografia do universo semântico do amor romântico nas canções e dos depoimentos de seus criadores, a investigação busca identificar quais foram os principais elementos simbólicos desse imaginário que emergiram do processo criativo dos compositores brasileiros estudados e tornaram-se índices dessa aproximação entre o poprock local e o internacional. O referencial teórico apresenta autores do campo do imaginário (Gilbert Durand e Michel Maffesoli), da semiótica e semiologia (Charles Sanders Peirce, Roland Barthes e Umberto Eco) e da cultura e comunicação (Jesus Martín-Barbero e Stuart Hall). A conclusão mostra como o processo criativo dos compositores e as canções investigadas construíram um imaginário do amor romântico revelador do fenômeno de pertencimento e identificação cultural local e global a determinadas estéticas, éticas e costumes estabelecidos pela canção midiática

This thesis aims at showcasing the movement of African cultural meaning from Africa to Europe by Europeans in their involvement in the African slave trade as well as the colonization of Africa, which was the imprisonment of the African cultural expression as well as a limitation of its development and further production. The thesis also addresses one of the reason for the global circulation of the European culture, which is the search and achievement of absolute power and control over the minds of its conquests in order to become a dominant culture. Note, however that the act of becoming a dominant culture stem from the European cultural persuasion of the dominance of its culture by its self and not a reflection of epistemological and ontological superiority. Note also that in claiming to be a dominant culture, the European culture is in reality only in control of its conquests, which are cultures whose nature is to its full knowledge, and whose meaning it distributes upon will and purpose. Therefore, the movement of African cultural values, norms and beliefs to Europe and the Euro‐Atlantic world, implies that the ideas from which the European fashion system´s inspiration is founded, are in essence not only European derived. This conclusion is based on a critical analysis of the nature of the European culture and its authentic self, a self that produces European culture. / Program: Textilt management, fashion management

Cette thèse est une recherche des moyens de formuler une éthique des identités culturelles appropriée aux sociétés multiculturelles dans le monde diversifié du présent. Elle prend appui sur l’appareil conceptuel du philosophe Charles Taylor, principalement sur sa conception de l’identité du moi, dialogique et enchâssée dans des cadres de signification historico-culturels. Une exploration des diverses identités culturelles qui s’expriment dans le monde à l’âge séculier nous montre la pertinence de la question de la reconnaissance des cultures et de la nécessité d’approfondir des méthodes de compréhension de l’autre, inspirées, dans le cas de Taylor, de l’herméneutique gadamérienne. Pour cela, une mise à distance de l’ethnocentrisme et une volonté d’ouverture à la différence culturelle, semblent indispensables. L’application pratique que déploie dans ses travaux la Commission des accommodements culturels du Québec montre que cela est possible et constitue peut-être une voie d’avenir pour des sociétés démocratiques où la différence culturelle pourrait être vécue d’une façon apaisée, posant les bases d’une éthique des identités culturelles. / This thesis is a research into the means of formulating an ethical theory of cultural identities adapted to multicultural societies in the present diversified world. It is based on philosopher Charles Taylor’s conceptual device, mainly on his conception of the identity of Self, dialogical and embedded in the framework of historical-cultural significance.. An exploration of different cultural identities expressed in a world of secular age, shows us the pertinence of the question on the recognition of cultures and on the necessity of going further into the methods to understand the other, inspired, as in the case of Taylor, by the Gadamerian hermeneutics. And for this, the distancing of ethnocentrism and a willingness to be open to the cultural difference seem indispensable. The practical application deployed in its efforts by the Commission of cultural accommodations in Quebec shows that this is possible and constitutes, perhaps, a way in future for some democratic societies where cultural differences could be lived peacefully, by laying a basis for an ethics of cultural identities.

Séville, quatrième ville d’Espagne, constitue un exemple de société contemporaine « hybride », prise entre modernité et mémoire. Ce travail de thèse, à vocation comparative, appuyé sur une patiente immersion de terrain, interroge les modalités du renouveau, de la permanence et de la stabilité de l’identité de la ville, au miroir des complexités de son fait religieux populaire. L’étude révèle d’abord les singularités d’un principe relationnel à l’œuvre dans la cité : segmentaire et médiatisé, de type familial extensif. Elle détaille ensuite la nature des dévotions portées aux multiples images locales du Christ et de la Vierge. Réellement présentes, les images entrent dans le jeu des interactions mondaines et les liens qui les unissent aux hommes se déploient au fil d’un calendrier liturgique hautement festif. Le travail en décrit les principales séquences. Il dévoile également l’action géopolitique des variations morphologiques que cette boucle cérémonielle produit dans la ville. Enfin, au-delà de ce que les seuls yeux peuvent percevoir, la thèse questionne plus particulièrement certains secrets de l’herméneutique locale du mystère pascal. L’observation des différentes étapes du sacrifice du Fils, puis de sa résurrection locale invisible, sensible et progressive, vient en effet mettre à jour un principe original de renouvellement du social, impliquant rituellement les vivants, leurs morts, ainsi que les générations à naître.Cette thèse présente ainsi différents aspects d’un même système politico-religieux local. L’articulation complexe de l’ensemble y ordonne cycliquement pouvoir et autorité, politique et imaginaire, au sein d’un même espace de sens symbolique. / Seville, Spain's fourth largest city, constitutes an example of a « hybrid » contemporary society caught between modernity and memory. This thesis, aiming to be comparative and supported by a patient field immersion, questions the modalities of the renewal, the permanence and the stability of the city's identity, in the mirror of its popular religious phenomenon.The study first reveals the singularities of a relational tenet at work in the city : segmental and mediated, while also shaped as an extensible family. It then details the nature of the devotion shown to the multiple local images of Christ and the Virgin. Through their real presence, these images fit into a pattern of social interactions, with the links that unite them to people unfolding throughout a highly festive liturgical calendar. The research describes its main sequences. It also reveals the geopolitical action of the morphological changes created by this ceremonial periodicity in the city.Finally, beyond what bare eyes can perceive, the thesis questions more specifically some of the secrets in the local hermeneutics of the Paschal Mystery. An observation of the different stages of the sacrifice of Christ, and his ensuing invisible local resurrection, emotionally perceptible and progressive, indeed furthers an original principle of social renewal, ritually involving the living, their dead as well as the future generations to come.This thesis thus presents different aspects of the same local political-religious system, wherein the complex articulation of the whole cyclically orders power and authority, politics and imagery, all within one space of symbolic meaning.

Este estudo investiga a atuação do fotógrafo francês Pierre Verger (1902-1996) com o propósito de compreender a relação entre suas fotografias da Bahia e as tentativas de definir, por meados do século XX, uma identidade baiana. Vista muitas vezes como calcada na herança iorubá, mas quase sempre tratada quase como uma essência mística por escritores, músicos, artistas, cronistas e cientistas sociais, esta imagem foi mais tarde apropriada pela política, economia (incluído o turismo), mídia e indústria cultural. No entanto, a singularidade da Bahia revela-se, nas lentes de Verger, como concreta, territorialmente encarnada, expressando-se no corpo e na corporalidade dos próprios lugares, de herança africana sim, mas sem traços explícitos iorubá. / This dissertation intends to understand the role played by the French photographer turned into an ethnographer Pierre Verger (2002-1996) as a contributor to the efforts of artists, writers and scholars in mid-20th century Bahia aiming at creating and circulating a local Afro-brazilian identity ethnically understood as of Yoruba origin. Vergers photographs, instead of abstract and desimbodied features, offer a deeply territorialized vision of Bahias identity,

A Assembleia Constituinte que deu origem ao Estado Plurinacional da Bolívia no ano de 2009 marcou o encontro da diferença indígena com o Estado. Baseada em valores e paradigmas alternativos, tais como a plurinacionalidade, a interculturalidade e o vivir bien, a refundação do Estado se insere num contexto de mobilização e articulação de grupos historicamente marginalizados, os quais passaram a questionar a legitimidade do projeto de Estado-nação moderno. Tal processo impactou significativamente não só as estruturas de poder e as instituições estatais, mas também as referências, valores e discursos em torno das questões culturais, simbólicas e identitárias. Desse modo, a pesquisa teve como objetivo principal analisar como as identidades culturais e políticas dos diversos movimentos que compuseram o chamado Pacto de Unidade foram progressivamente reivindicadas, negociadas, articuladas e posicionadas em torno dos diversos temas e das disputas simbólicas e de poder, dando origem ao indígena originário camponês. Para tanto, foi realizada pesquisa interdisciplinar, a partir da (i) da teoria crítica latino-americana, mais especificamente do pensamento descolonial; (ii) dos Estudos Culturais e, em especial, dos Estudos Culturais desde/sobre América Latina; (iii) dos Estudos Pós-Coloniais; e (iv) das Epistemologias do Sul. Os documentos centrais para as análises realizadas foram as duas propostas formuladas pelo Pacto de Unidade para a Assembleia Constituinte entre 2006 e 2007, bem como o texto constitucional aprovado em 2009. A partir de tais análises, concluiu-se que a construção identitária em torno do indígena originário camponês representou uma importante chave de articulação para os movimentos indígenas, tendo relevância tanto simbólica, ao marcar a chegada dessa diferença indígena na institucionalidade estatal, quanto concreta, ao estabelecer novas relações entre povos e nações indígenas com a sociedade nacional e garantir o reconhecimento de direitos específicos. Embora as dificuldades e limitações relativas à articulação de interesses e visões de mundos tão diversos em uma identidade abrangente como o indígena originário camponês já venha se explicitando na prática política, deve-se reconhecer que o processo de formulação de um projeto de nação comum no âmbito do Pacto de Unidade demonstrou que os movimentos indígenas foram capazes de articular políticas identitárias bastante complexas e incorporar conteúdos mais amplos às suas lutas, desestabilizando os significados hegemônicos da nação e levando à reinvenção discursiva e prática da comunidade imaginada. Por fim, cabe destacar que o processo constituinte boliviano representou um importante passo não só na luta pela transformação das relações de poder entre Estado e sociedade, mas também como uma luta epistêmica contra o eurocentrismo como pensamento único e universal, apontando novos valores e horizontes civilizacionais, bem como novas possibilidades teóricas para a análise das identidades culturais contemporâneas / The Constituent Assembly that gave rise to the Plurinational State of Bolivia in 2009 has marked the encounter between the indigenous difference and the State. Based in values and alternative paradigms such as the plurinationality, the interculturality and the vivir bien (live well), the refounding of the State resulted from the context of mobilization and articulation of historically marginalized groups, which started questioning the legitimacy of the modern nation-state project. Such process has impacted significantly not only the power structures and the state-owned institutions, but also the references, values and discourses related to cultural, symbolic and identity questions. On that account, the research had as main objective analyze how the cultural and political identities of the different movements that integrated the so called Pact of Unity had been progressively reivindicated, negotiated, articulated and positioned around the multiple themes and the symbolic and power disputes, giving birth to the indigenous originary peasant. Therefore, interdisciplinary research was developed from (i) the Latin- American critical theory, more specifically the decolonial thought; (ii) the Cultural Studies and, in particular, the Cultural Studies from/about Latin America; (iii) the Postcolonial Studies; and (iv) the Epistemologies of the South. The main documents used to support these analyses were the two proposals formulated by Pact of Unity for the Constituent Assembly between 2006 and 2007, as well the constitutional text approved in 2009. From these analyses it can be understood that the identity construction around the indigenous originary peasant portrayed an important key of articulation for the indigenous movements, having both symbolic relevance, marking the arrival of this indigenous difference in the State institutions, and a concrete relevance, establishing new relation between indigenous people and nations and the national society and guaranteeing specific rights recognition. Although difficulties and limitations related to the articulation of interests and world views so different in an embracing identity as the indigenous originary peasant has already been shown in political practice, it is important to recognize that the formulation process of a common nation project inside the Pact of Unity has demonstrated that indigenous movements were capable of articulating identity politics extremely complexes and incorporating comprehensive contents to their fights, destabilizing the hegemonic meanings of nation and resulting in the discursive and practical reinvention of the imagined community. Finally, it is important to stress the Bolivian constitutional process represented a very important step not only in the fight for transformation of power relations between State and society, but also as an epistemic fight against the eurocentrism as a sole and universal thought, appointing news values and civilizational horizons, as well as new theorical possibilities for the contemporary cultural identities analyses

[pt] Esta tese tem como objetivo principal a análise das Lendas e Narrativas, para, do ponto de vista histórico e ficcional, demonstrar a tentativa de Herculano de transformar, atento ao projeto romântico, o medievo português em patrimônio cultural. Captar o olhar romântico do autor, voltado para o passado medieval na construção da identidade cultural portuguesa, foi o segundo objetivo que se nos impôs. Para tanto, dividimos o estudo em seis capítulos, enfatizando em cada um o papel que o discurso da História desempenha nessa ficção. As sete narrativas são analisadas através da discussão dos enredos, à luz de correntes teóricas contemporâneas, para detectar as peculiaridades de cada uma, com ênfase no diálogo que se estabeleceu entre o discurso da literatura e o da História, no ato da criação ficcional. Grosso modo, concluímos que, em Lendas e Narrativas, o autor pretendeu conservar a memória de intensas experiências, compreendendo tanto a tradição ibérica quanto a transformação dessa mesma tradição, que assume o papel de produtora de elementos novos. Em seus textos, representa-se a construção da própria identidade, das marcas basilares da literatura do século XIX e até de algumas do século posterior. Pensar a questão da memória literária em Lendas e Narrativas obriga, assim, a reconhecer a produção literária como um sistema de diálogos, de trocas e de apropriações, impulsionado por um jogo de forças interativas. A diversidade de personagens presentes na obra a constitui um tecido intrincado e exemplar do gênero ficção histórica, na esteira de Walter Scott. A leitura aqui feita, norteou-a o propósito principal de contribuir para o (re)conhecimento desta obra fundamental do Romantismo português, acrescido de outro, talvez pretensioso, de abrir perspectivas para novas abordagens. Este contínuo interpretar a história, renovando seu significado, dando-lhe diferentes interpretações, assemelha- se a percorrer uma trilha que, sempre renovada, leva à descoberta de novas e fascinantes leituras. / [en] The main objective of this thesis is to analyse the historical short stories in Lendas e Narrativas, so as to demonstrate, from both historical and fictional points of view, Herculanos attempt to change the Portuguese medieval period into a cultural inheritance, following the romantic artistic project. The second objective is to capture the romantic view of the author, who looked back to medieval times, in order to build a Portuguese cultural identity. The investigation is divided into six chapters, each one emphasizing the function that historical discourse represents in Herculanos fiction. In the light of contemporary theories, the seven narratives are analysed through the discussion of the plots (intrigues), to detect the peculiarities of each one. The emphasis is on the dialogue established between the discourses of Literature and History, within the texts, at the moment of creation. In broad terms, the research concludes that in Lendas e Narrativas the author intended to keep the memory of intense experiences, involving both the Iberian traditions and the transformation of these traditions, which assume the role of producer of new elements. This experience constructs the identity of the basic characteristics of nineteenth century Portuguese literature and even some characteristics of literature in the following century. Reflecting on the question of literary memory in Lendas e Narrativas thus demands the recognition that literary production is a system of dialogues, exchanges and appropriations that are activated by a play of interactive forces. The diversity of characters in the book makes it an intricate weave of historical fiction in the tradition of Walter Scott. The present study intends to contribute to the recognition of this essential work in Portuguese Romanticism and, perhaps ambitiously, to open up perspectives for new research. This continuous movement of interpreting history, renewing its significance, and providing it with different interpretations is a pathway to the discovery of fascinating new readings.

[pt] A dissertação propõe-se a comparar os poetas Mario de Andrade e Caetano Veloso,caracterizando este como seguidor de aspectos de um projeto de identidade cultural que se inicia com aquele,nos ideais do movimento modernista brasileiro, e que se transforma ao ser retomado na segunda metade do século XX. O confronto entre os dois poetas permite identificar características específicas da nação e o relacionamento do sujeito com o sistema cultural brasileiro.Apresenta-se a transformação do pensamento de ambos os artistas, através da análise de suas obras poéticas sob a perspectiva estético-ideológica. Busca-se, ainda,diferenciá-los pelas respectivas linguagens - poesia e música - ao mesmo tempo em que se coloca em pauta a união das culturas popular e erudita, que resultaria numa cultura híbrida. / [en] The text intends to compare the poets Mario de Andrade e Caetano Veloso, starting the second as a follower of cultural identity project started by the first, during the brazilian modernist wave, and the influences during the second half of the twenty century. The comparison between both poets shows the specifics caracteristics of the nation e the links between the poet and brazilian cultural system. The several changes in the thoughts of both artists are shown by the analysis of their poetical producion, under an estetic and ideological view.The text also tries to separate the artists throught their own languages - poetry and music - and discusses the unity between popular and erudit cultures, which would result in a hibrid culture.

The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) formed public-private partnerships (PPPs) with local and international private companies during the construction of the Port of Miami Tunnel (POMT) project. These PPPs had employees from different cultural backgrounds who brought new cultures, ideas, innovation, and experiences to their PPPs. The limited PPP literature did indicate that different cultures should be properly integrated to avoid challenges and conflicts in the new organization. If not properly managed and integrated, cultural conflict can create communication problems, increased employee dissatisfaction, higher turnover, and poor employee performance. Using Risberg's communication theoretical foundation, the purpose of this phenomenological study was to explore the lived experiences of PPP employees to see how their intercultural communication facilitated cultural integration. Data were generated through semi-structured, open-ended interviews with 11 employees of the PPPs formed with FDOT during the POMT project. Data were coded and analyzed using a thematic analaysis procedure. Findings were that cultural aspects like social interaction, comfort in interacting with people from different cultures, empathy, respect for others, knowledge about other cultures, open-mindedness, and managerial support helped in facilitating cultural integration in the respective PPPs. Positive social change implications may include the improvement of PPP efficiency and efficacy with: greater leadership awareness of the challenges and opportunities of diversity; new policies and management strategies that take advantage of different cultural contributions; and, policies that encourage cultural competency and sensitivity.

[pt] Este trabalho estuda os conteúdos socioculturais presentes na obra literária de Cora Coralina e a sua relevância para o desenvolvimento socioeconômico da Cidade de Goiás nas últimas décadas. A temporalidade deste estudo compreende o período que se estende entre os anos de 1937 a 2001. A pesquisa se inscreve parcialmente no quadro dos Estudos Culturais, tomados como base para o desenvolvimento de um novo tratamento acadêmico do conceito desenvolvimento sustentável. Além disso, ela se vale de aportes do campo da análise literária, incluindo uma discussão sobre a literatura feminina no cânone literário brasileiro. Os conceitos fundamentais para o seu desenvolvimento são o de intelectual orgânico - do pensamento gramsciano -, capitais social e cultural - provenientes das discussões recentes sobre desenvolvimento social - esferas pública e privada - tomadas da reflexão de Hannah Arendt e complementadas pela discussão sobre o lócus do feminino na sociedade brasileira, que emana da obra de Roberto Da Matta, através dos conceitos casa e rua e, finalmente, do conceito identidade cultural - de acordo com a reflexão de Denise Fonseca. O tratamento deste tema obriga um novo olhar sobre a questão local e uma nova valorização do patrimônio cultural, em resposta ao esvaziamento das identidades nacionais, ao declínio do papel social do Estado e a busca de novas formas de superação das desigualdades sociais, a partir dos legados das identidades culturais locais. / [en] This work deals with the socio-cultural contents of Cora Coralina s literary work and its relevance to the social and economic development of the Goi s City during the last decades. The timeframe comprehends the period that spread from 1937 to 2001. The research is partially inscribed within the frame of the Cultural Studies, taken as a base for the departure of a new academic approach to the concept sustainable development. Furthermore, the approach adopted benefits from inputs taken from the field of literary analysis, including a discussion about feminine literature within the Brazilian literary cannon. The main concepts used in the development of this work were: organic intellectual - taken from Gramsci s work - social and cultural capitals - taken from the most recent debate about social development - public and private spheres - taken from the work of Hannah Arendt and complemented by the discussion about the female locus within Brazilian society, taken from Roberto Da Matta s work, who put forward the concepts house and street and, finally, the concept cultural identity - as conceived by Denise Fonseca. The approaching of such a theme demanded an innovative perspective and a new valorization of the local question and the cultural legacy, as a response for the weakening of the national identities, the decline of the social role of the State and the search for new means to surpass social inequalities, based on local cultural identities legacy.
