Os dados que serviram de base ao estudo foram coletados através de entrevistas abertas, com roteiros parcialmente estruturados. Entrevistaram-se os atores comprometidos com a "criação" da "moda pernambucana", prestando-se particular atenção ao processo usado (por cada agente do gosto) na formulação da moda local. Verificou-se, a partir dos dados recolhidos, uma subordinação da moda produzida em Pernambuco aos tradicionais centros lançadores de estido de vestuário, quer situados no Centro-Sul do Brasil, quer nos principais pólos de referencia da moda européia, caracterizando-se, assim, não uma produção, propriamente falando, mas uma (re)produção da moda. Observou-se, ainda, uma tendência para a valorização da estética concebida fora do Estado e do pais - onde se localiza o monopólio da imposição do gosto - o que abre espaço para o aprofundamento da dominação cultural. / The thesis work on fashion» in Pernambuco state, with theoretical support on Pierré Bourdieu's thought, had the major aim of studying the strategies for the formulation of the taste, as they are used by the agents of fashion, in the context of such a state. The basic data utilized for the study were collected, during open interviews, the main lines of which, however, have been, in part, previously determined. Acting people involved in the "creation" of "Pernambuco fashion" were interviewed, and a particular attention has been devoted to the process used by every agent of the taste for the formulation of local fashion. From the collected data, it has been observed the subordination of the fashion produced in Pernambuco to the traditional centers, introducers of clothing style, located whether in the Mid-South Region of Brazil, or in the principal points of reference of the European fashion. Thus, it was identified a (re)production, not properly speaking a production of fashion as such. It was also noted a tendency to the valorization of esthetics, as conceived out of Pernambuco and Brazil - where the monopoly of imposition of the taste is located - what opens a space for stressing the cultural domination.

No Brasil, o processo de consolidação desta indústria, iniciada na década de 60, foi marcado pela ausência de uma visão crítica resultante da incompreensão, por parte dos intelectuais, de seu real significado político e cultural, no contexto do milagre econômico do então regime militar. Nos anos 90, com a euforia da revolução eletrônica e informacional e com a abertura dos mercados - a chamada globalização - novamente um certo acriticismo ter-se-ia implantado, agora num contexto diverso. O objetivo desta dissertação é avaliar, segundo as categorias analíticas de Pierre Bourdieu e com as contribuições dos críticos da Indústria Cultural, como esta "tradição acrítica" estaria agora se prolongando, em função da construção de ideologias que legitimam aglobalização e da qual o campo publicitário certamente é um de seus artífices mais ativos / Abstract: The advertising industry keeps a close relation with the economic and political fields, particularly with the first, for being a specialization arisen in the XX century from the Cultural Industry. In Brazil, the process of consolidation of this industry, which began in the decade of 60, has been marked by the absence of a critical view resulting from the intellectuals' nonunderstanding of its real political and cultural significance in the context of the "economic miracle" under the military regime. In the 90s, under the euphoria promoted by the electronic and information revolution and market opening - the so-called globalization - again a certain acriticism has been implemented, now in a different contexto The objective of this dissertation is to evaluation according to Pierre Bourdieu's analytical categories and the contributions of critics of the Cultural Industry, how this "acritical tradition" would now be prolonging as a function of the building up of ideologies that legitimate globalization and of which the advertising industry is certainly one of its more active designers / Mestrado / Mestre em Ciências Sociais

Esta consistiu na pergunta inicial, ponto de partida para a constituição da pesquisa que ora se apresenta. Estudar as condições de produção e legitimação da etnomatemática como área de pesquisa, principal objetivo perseguido, cuja orientação metodológica situou-se no campo da sociologia a partir de uma perspectiva que inaugura modos de olhar para aspectos inerentes à educação matemática que, no caso desta investigação, olhou para a etnomatemática. Um modo de olhar que, nesta investigação, toma como referência a perspectiva sociológica proposta por Pierre Bourdieu (1930-2002), sociólogo francês conhecido e reconhecido por sua ousadia nos objetos que escolheu para análise, mas, mais que isso, na forma como os analisou, a partir das relações, jogos de poder, capitais que acumularam e alianças que estabeleceram em um espaço de lutas caracterizado por ele como campo. A partir dessa perspectiva, passamos a compreender a etnomatemática como uma perspectiva que é constituída por atividades de pesquisa conduzidas por aqueles que se envolvem com a temática e, também, como parte de um processo de constituição que favoreceu a sua produção. Assim, uma parte dos estudos que encaminhamos envolveu uma análise sobre o processo de emergência da etnomatemática como área de pesquisa, a partir de uma perspectiva que focalizou os aspectos históricos que favoreceram a emergência da etnomatemática como uma área de pesquisa e sua pertinência em um espaço mais amplo de possibilidades para a pesquisa em educação matemática. Ainda sobre esse processo de emergência, focalizamos a trajetória de um principal agente desse movimento – o pesquisador brasileiro Ubiratan D’Ambrosio –, um agente que, pelas posições que ocupa, associadas aos capitais que acumula em sua trajetória, se destaca como figura importante na instituição da etnomatemática como área de conhecimento, introduzindo o termo “etnomatemática” no cenário acadêmico e formulando os princípios que fundamentam a sua proposição como uma área de conhecimento. Um agente que, ao mobilizar estratégias para promover esse movimento, promove, também, o seu movimento no campo da matemática. Na outra parte dos nossos estudos, as atividades registradas por pesquisadores etnomatemáticos em seus currículos Lattes, são compreendidas como aquelas que legitimam a etnomatemática, considerando a legitimação como um processo que envolve a produção, divulgação, promoção e circulação, que constitui o mercado onde circula o discurso que institui a etnomatemática enquanto prática. Um mercado que se estabelece a partir de relações entre produtores e consumidores. Os processos que envolveram a produção e a legitimação da etnomatemática como uma área de pesquisa foram compreendidos como liderados por agentes e constituídos por suas atividades que, ao serem registradas em seus currículos Lattes, veiculam o que deve, ou não, ser entendido como prática etnomatemática. Tais práticas, consideradas discursivas, são aquelas formuladas pelos agentes produtores, elite intelectual dos sujeitos de pesquisa, que ditam as regras do jogo e instituem o que deve ser considerado ou não etnomatemática. / How to map the research in ethnomathematics in Brazil? This was the initial question and the starting point for the constitution of the present study. To study the conditions of production and legitimization of ethnomathematics as a research area was the main objective pursued. The methodological orientation was situated in the field of sociology from a perspective that inaugurates ways of looking at aspects inherent to mathematical education. In the case of this investigation, we studied ethnomathematics. This is a way of looking, which, in this investigation, takes the sociological perspective proposed by Pierre Bourdieu (1930-2002) as a reference. Bourdieu was a French sociologist known and recognized for his boldness in the choice of objects for analysis, but, more than that, in the way he analyzed them, which took into account the relations, power games, accumulated capitals and alliances that were settled in a space of struggle. This space was characterized by him as the field. From this perspective, we come to understand ethnomathematics as a research issue that is constituted by studies and activities conducted by researchers who are involved with the theme and also as part of a process of constitution that favored its production. Thus, a part of the studies that we conducted involved an analysis of the emergence process of ethnomathematics as a research issue, from a perspective that focused on the historical aspects that favored the emergence of ethnomathematics as a research area and its relevance as a broader way to research mathematical education. Still on this emergence process, we focused on the trajectory of a main agent of this movement - the Brazilian researcher Ubiratan D'Ambrosio. He was an agent who, for the positions he occupies – which are associated with the capital he accumulated in his trajectory -, stood out as an important person in the institution of ethnomathematics as a research issue, introduced the term "ethnomathematics" in the academic setting, and formulated the principles that are the foundation of the area of studies. An agent who, in mobilizing strategies to promote this movement, also promoted his own movement in the field of mathematics. In the other part of our studies, the activities registered by ethnomathematical researchers in their Lattes resumes are understood as those that legitimize ethnomathematics. We considered legitimacy as a process involving production, dissemination, promotion, and circulation, and which constitutes the market where the discourse that establishes ethnomathematics as a practice circulates. A market that is established based on relations between producers and consumers. The processes that involved the production and legitimation of ethnomathematics as a research area were understood as led by the agents and constituted by their activities, which, when recorded in their Lattes resumes, convey what should or should not be understood as ethnomathematical practice. Such practices, considered to be discursive, are those formulated by the producing agents, the intellectual elite of research subjects, the ones who dictate the rules of the game and establish what should or should not be considered ethnomathematics. / O autor só apresentou título em português.

Syftet med denna kvalitativa undersökning var att ta reda på vad ljudteknikern har för roll och påverkan i en operaproduktion samt även att undersöka hur ljudteknikern samverkar med övriga funktioner i operahuset. Detta ämne är som forskningsområde fortfarande relativt ogenomlyst, därför kan denna studie bidra ny kunskap i ämnet. Undersökningen kan i viss mån även ge ökad kunskap om hur samspel och samverkan ser ut mellan olika yrkesgrupper i svenska operahus. Som grund för uppsatsens analys fungerade fyra stycken ljudtekniskt verksamma personer från Sveriges tre största operahus som intervjuades. Svaren från respondenterna har analyserats utifrån Pierre Bourdieus teorier (symboliskt kapital, fält och habitus) och annan tidigare forskning. Studien visar att ljudteknikerns roll är komplex, mångfasetterad och kräver utöver ljudteknisk kunskap även stor social kompetens för att kunna samverka väl med de konstnärliga ledarna och övriga funktioner. Vidare framgår det att tre av de fyra respondenterna anser att ljudteknikern påverkar det konstnärliga scenuttrycket. Respondenterna var eniga om att ljudteknikerns roll i en operaproduktion har blivit mer betydande på senare år tack vare den tekniska utvecklingen. Svagheten med denna studie är att den endast byggts på kunskap inhämtade genom intervjuer. Som förslag på vidare forskning är att utvidga och säkerställa dessa resultat genom att genomföra undersökningen med andra metoder t.ex. observationsstudier.

This thesis was inspired by my over 20 years’ experience of inspecting schools, including as one of Her Majesty’s Inspectors from 1991 to 2000. The research’s main aims were to review the development of the criteria devised by Ofsted by which inspectors judge the quality of teaching in mainstream schools and to gain primary headteachers’ and teachers’ views on the criteria and their enactment. The thesis analyses the development of the criteria since the first Ofsted inspections in 1993, and considers possible influences of government policies and educational research. I interviewed three former and one current HMI to explore their perspectives about the development of the criteria, and ten primary headteachers and pairs of teachers from their schools to hear their views. I applied Bourdieu’s thinking tools of habitus and field to interpret the roles of the different actors involved in the preparation and enactment of the teaching criteria. The findings suggest a hierarchy in what I have called the ‘field of inspection’, with HMI wielding significant symbolic capital because of their role as authors of the criteria and overseers of quality. Since 2012, the combination of a new HMCI and government has thrown the quality of teaching into the limelight, raised the stakes of the Ofsted outcome for schools and resulted in much public criticism of Ofsted inspections. Ofsted has responded to criticism over the years resulting in frequent changes to the inspection guidance and criteria, but the language of the criteria remains imprecise and open to interpretation. The thesis concludes that the frequent changes reflect what Bourdieu called ‘misrecognition’ by Ofsted of the significance of the inspection outcome to schools and the lengths that headteachers and teachers are prepared to go to get a ‘good Ofsted outcome’.

This doctoral research has analyzed the employment of ex-military as teachers from a perspective of identity and culture. Using a single case study approach, including focus groups, interviews and observations, the research has explored a military academy within 'College', a further education institute in the south of England. Focusing particularly on the experiences of four teachers who had recently left the British Armed Forces, the analysis employs Pierre Bourdieu's habitus, field and capital to understand the macro, micro and subject level influences that shape field practice. It is proposed that, at a macro level, moralizing discourse regarding undesirable working class youth has been positioned against an idealized masculine military power identity. This has overlaid existing discourse regarding the feminized nature of teaching and the marketization of education. This can be viewed as an ideological tension between a pervading centre-right perspective of education as a tool of social order and preparing the young for employment, dominating a broader liberal egalitarian ideal of education for comprehensive social reform. At a micro level, the construction of military identities was accomplished through capital exchanges regarding military experience and relational processes of differentiation with feminized 'others'. Student identity work used processes of imagination, constructing imagined social capitals through storytelling, symbolic interaction and ritualized performance. It is proposed that socialization with idealized military types, providing conceptualized forms of idealized vocational habitus, provided access to powerful imagined capitals on which students were able to draw in the construction of new identities. The research indicates that there are both positive and negative outcomes to this identity work. The data shows that the identity work through the differentiation of feminized ‘others’ can lead to behaviours that could be viewed as aggressive or abusive. The research also argues that this identity work can have a motivating effect on students who want to join the Armed Forces, leading to successful educational attainment where identity narratives supported academic practice. With respect to the ex-military teachers themselves, the research witnessed the most successful transitions being made by the youngest members; the oldest member struggled to change to the new field conditions, his cultured military habitus disposing him to military practice, resulting in him positioning himself professionally through the capitals of his past.

Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka hur några personer som bor i Leksands kommun förhandlar och resonerar kring relationen mellan ishockey och kultur. Detta har gjorts med hjälp av Bourdieus fältbegrepp för att synliggöra de strategier som används för att uttrycka denna relation. Jag har utfört fem intervjuer med totalt sex personer som på olika sätt är engagerade i frågan. Intervjupersonerna har fått berätta relativt fritt om sina uppfattningar och resonemang, och genom detta förs en diskussion kring hur deras strategiska användande av kapital ser ut och hur detta påverkar såväl dem själva som andra.

This thesis seeks to uncover some of the cultural practices central to youth activist subcultures across three urban centres in Canada: Toronto, Montreal, and Vancouver. I undertake this work within the context of rising moral and state claims about the apparent need for ‘good citizenship’ to be exercised by young people, alongside a late modern relationship between liberalism, neoliberalism, and Canada’s history of class- and race-based exclusions. The theoretical framework bridges cultural and political sociology with youth cultural theory. It also draws heavily upon the work of feminist philosophers of agency and the state. The main methodology is ethnographic, and was carried out within a phenomenological and hermeneutic framework. In total, 41 young people, ages 13-29, were involved in this research. Participants self-identified as being involved in activist work addressing issues such as globalization, war, poverty and/or colonialism. The findings of this study suggest that the effects of the historical and contemporary symbol of the ‘good citizen’ are experienced within youth activist subcultures through a variety of cultural means, including: expectations from self and schooling to be ‘responsible,’ with its associated burdens of guilt; policing practices that appear to rely on cultural ideas about the ‘good citizen’ and the ‘bad activist’; and representations of youth activism (e.g. within media) as replete with out-of-control young people being punished for their wrong-doings. Wider effects include the entrenched impacts of class- and race-based exclusions, which manifest within youth activist subcultures through stylistic regimes of ‘symbolic authorization’ that incorporate attire, beliefs, and practices. Although findings suggest that many young people come to activism via a predisposition created within an activist or Left-leaning family, this research also highlights the relational means by which people from outside of this familial habitus can come to activist practices. Taken together, findings suggest that youth activism must be understood as a cultural and social phenomenon, with requisite preconditions, influences, and effects; that such practices cannot be disassociated from wider social inequalities; and that such effects and influences demand scrutiny if we are to reconsider the role of activism and its part in expanding the political boundaries of the nation-state. / Education, Faculty of / Educational Studies (EDST), Department of / Graduate

Drawing from Pierre Bourdieu’s socio-cultural approach, this qualitative research project aimed to: (a) understand the responses to current body norms and expectations tied to health and physical appearances amongst underprivileged young women; and; (b) understand to what extent the dominant obesity discourse is inscribed in these women’s bodily habits. Results highlight that participants were aware of the dominant obesity discourse through their perceptions, sentiments, and dispositions towards bodily norms and expectations. Despite their awareness, underprivileged living conditions generated other sets of priorities, such as motherhood, achieving economic stability, completing education, and gaining physical independence which were far greater preoccupations. Underprivileged young women’s ‘choice of the necessary’ is based on optimizing resources and prioritizing needs and responsibilities. Findings support the use of Pierre Bourdieu’s concepts which consider the effects of various aspects of underprivileged living conditions on lifestyles.

Depuis les années 1950, des chercheurs comme Useem, Pollock, Van Reken et d’autres se sont interrogés sur le sujet des enfants qui ont grandi dans plusieurs pays. Cependant, la grande majorité de ce corpus vise les enfants ayant été scolarisés dans des établissements anglophones même s’il existe de nombreux établissements francophones hors la France. Ce projet vise cette population. Nous nous sommes demandés s’ils faisaient partie d’une double minorité, premièrement la minorité de Nomades Globaux (NG) mais dans cette population s’ils faisant partie d’une minorité francophone de NG. Pour ce faire, nous avons conduit des entrevues semi-structurées avec 12 participants en utilisant un cadre théorique construit autour de l’habitus de Pierre Bourdieu. Bien que nous ne puissions tirer de conclusions générales, il semble que ces NG ne se sentent pas comme faisant partie d’une double minorité.
