Das calçadas às galerias: mercados populares do centro de São Paulo / From the streets to the indoor markets: São Paulos popular trade areasSilva, Carlos Freire da 01 September 2014 (has links)
Esta pesquisa discute as transformações que vêm ocorrendo nos tradicionais mercados populares do centro de São Paulo (Brás, 25 de Março e Santa Ifigênia), a partir das chamadas galerias e feiras da madrugada. Atualmente, milhares de revendedores, vindos da periferia da cidade, da região metropolitana, do interior do Estado e também de outros estados, direcionam-se a estas regiões em busca de oportunidades de negócios. Além de brasileiros, encontram-se, nesses espaços, bolivianos, chineses, paraguaios, peruanos, libaneses, angolanos, entre outros, atuando seja na distribuição de uma produção local, seja como importadores ou, ainda, como compradores que visam revender as mercadorias em seus países de origem de modo que esses locais passaram a dialogar de outra maneira com a economia urbana da cidade. As formas de controle e fiscalização que incidem sobre estes espaços também se alteraram, tanto por meio das políticas de formalização de certas práticas, que são toleradas e até incentivadas, como através do recrudescimento da repressão policial, que em determinados comportamentos e práticas passam a ser combatidos e reprimidos. A pesquisa procurou problematizar os agenciamentos locais que se constituem em torno do desenvolvimento desses mercados populares, as formas de regulação, práticas de controle e fiscalização de diferentes agentes estatais e a dinâmica dos atores localmente situados. Trata-se de problematizar tais agenciamentos, como eles se formam no entrecruzamento de circuitos de mercadorias de diferentes procedências, quais são as mediações em jogo e de que maneira eles se conectam com as novas formas de gestão da produção e estratégias de circulação e distribuição comercial / This research proposes a discussion on the transformations that have been taking place at the popular tradicional markets in São Paulo downtown, which are: Brás, 25 de março e Santa Ifigênia, through the so called galleries and late-night-early-morning faires. Nowadays, thousands of resellers, coming from the peripheral areas of town, from the metropolitan region, from inter-state and from other states, go into those areas searching for trade oportunities. Besides Brazilian people, these areas receive people from Bolivia, China, Paraguay, Peru, Leban, Angola, among others, who act as distribuitors of local produce, importers of products and buyers who aim at reselling the goods in their original countries. This way, these places have started a different dialogue with the urban economy of the city. The control and fiscalization applied to these spaces have also changed, not only through the policies of formalization of certain practices that are tolerated, and even incentivated, but also through the recrudescence of the police repression, in which certain behaviors and practices have begun to be fought against and repressed. This study made an attempt to problematize the local assemblages that constitute themselves around the development of these popular markets, amidst regulation ways, practices of control and fiscalization done by different state agents, and the dynamics of the locally placed actors. It is about problematizing these assemblages, the ways in which they are formed in the intersection of goods circuits coming from different origins, which the mediations in play are and in which way they are connected with the new management forms and strategies of commercial circulation and distribuition

Previous issue date: 2015-03-06 / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior (CAPES) / Fundação de Amparo à Pesquisa do Estado de São Paulo (FAPESP) / This study relies on the occupational trajectories of workers engaged in popular ways of
trade. As background, we have the capitalist transformations in the latest’s decades,
which resulted in economical, technological and cultural changes that affected deeply
the position of work as a constructor of identities and social values. It is noticed that the
precariousness of the formal work relationships associated to the dissemination of the
ideology of entrepreneurship has resulted in the search for occupational and income
alternatives that weakened the frontiers between formal and informal. In this scenario,
the demarcations amidst legal and illegal also became less evident and significant. This
way, we discuss the insertion of agents in informal economical activities – as those
exercised by street venders -, trying to escape viewing unemployment or precariousness
in the labor market as main reasons to exert those occupations. Taking into
consideration the subjectivity of the situations, we try to think over the influence of an
entrepreneur reasoning under the subjects conduct. From the recovery of the
occupational trajectories of agents involved in different popular trade grades, we seek to
understand the worker’s perception about his own occupation and the values attributed
to those forms of work in the contemporary world, considering that, even though
traditional, these activities have been through reconfigurations of its practice and
meaning in front of the new economic and cultural context on which it is presented. / Esta pesquisa se propõe a refletir sobre as trajetórias ocupacionais de trabalhadores
engajados em formas de comércio popular. Temos como pano de fundo as
transformações capitalistas das últimas décadas, que desencadearam mudanças
econômicas, tecnológicas e culturais cujos efeitos impactaram profundamente o trabalho
como estruturador de identidades e valores sociais. Observa-se que a precarização das
relações formais de trabalho associada à disseminação da ideologia do
empreendedorismo têm resultado na busca por alternativas de ocupação e renda que
afrouxam as fronteiras entre o formal e o informal. Nesse movimento, as demarcações
entre o legal e o ilegal também se tornaram menos evidentes e significativas. Assim,
discutimos a inserção dos agentes em atividades econômicas informais – como as
exercidas por camelôs e sacoleiros –, tentando escapar da experiência do desemprego ou
precariedade do mercado de trabalho como imperativos para o engajamento nessas
ocupações. Levando em consideração a dimensão subjetiva das situações, procuramos
refletir acerca da influência de um discurso empreendedor sobre a disposição dos
sujeitos. A partir da recuperação de trajetórias ocupacionais de agentes envolvidos em
diferentes escalas do comércio popular, objetiva-se compreender a percepção do
trabalhador sobre sua ocupação e os valores atribuídos a essas formas de trabalho no
mundo contemporâneo, considerando que, apesar de tradicionais, essas atividades têm
passado por reconfigurações de suas práticas e significados frente ao novo contexto
econômico e cultural que se apresenta.

Negotiating Globalization from Below: Social Entrepreneurship, Neoliberalism, and the Making of the New South African SubjectJasor, Oceane 20 September 2016 (has links)
Neoliberal globalization can threaten the growth of a global civil society that sanctions power-sharing arrangements. Yet, scholarship that focuses unidirectionally on global processes may in effect eviscerate the transformative power of the local. To counter this tendency, this dissertation examines the interrelationships between contextualized and historically-specific experiences in South Africa and transnational processes through a case study of social entrepreneurship, an emerging global justice movement. Drawing on a 12-months institutional ethnography of Sonke Gender Justice, a transnational social entrepreneurship NGO working to achieve gender equality, prevent gender-based violence and reduce the spread of HIV/AIDS in Southern Africa, this dissertation explores the gendered dimensions of identity construction under conditions of neoliberalism. I look at the ways in which a transnational discourse of masculinity unfolds and is confronted locally as an essential element of the neoliberal project. I argue that, in Africa, the developmentalist agenda of neoliberalism is integrally tied to the demonization of black masculinity, posed as a problem. This acts to elide the ways in which factors of oppression intersect in the manufacture of a patriarchal, sexist, racist and homophobic society, negating any effort to promote healthy gender relations. The dissertation concludes that global discourses and scholarship on African masculinity need to be informed by African women’s lived experiences, survival strategies, and aspirations for gender and racial democracy in order for the development of a truly transformative gendered democracy to occur. This can be accomplished by sound and detailed ethnographic work that engages with the messiness and fluidity of cultures, knowledges, and practices on the ground. This approach opens up spaces of possibilities and visibility for an array of local renegotiations, borrowings, and frank resistances. My conclusion acknowledges the potential for significant contributions to global civil society’s struggle for justice and for transformation when transnational solidarity projects are inserted into local formations. However, these goals can only be accomplished when there is acknowledgement and engagement of the practical ways in which local agents try to negotiate and reformulate transnational discourses and challenge neoliberal representations.

“Globalization from below”? Uncovering the Nuances in Grassroots/Transnational MobilizationHettiarachchi, Cindy 07 February 2014 (has links)
This thesis offers a micro-level analysis of labour and women’s organizing in the context of globalization through the case study of the Comité Fronterizo de Obrer@s (CFO) from 1978 to 2009. We will see how one organization’s journey can give us insights into the complexities of local organizing and transnational networking in the context of globalization. This case study can be seen as a lens through which we can examine the changing context of labour and women’s organizing in the distinct maquiladora environment. My work positions itself in the “globalization from above” and “globalization from below” debate, specifically around the question of transnational social movements that form the “globalization from below” category in the context of a political economy analysis. However, where my thesis differs from a more traditional analysis of the resistance to globalization, such as that found in the global justice movements or alter-globalization movements, is in its focus on the complexities of organizing at the local level and the pressures that these local organizations feel from “above” from their transnational partners. What this thesis adds to the literature are the stories from the actual members of the organization, about the structure, the decision-making process of their organization, the role of the leadership and the connections between the local organizing and the transnational civil society partners.
The complex history of an organization that has been there since the beginning of the maquiladora industry allows us a better understanding of the changing conditions and struggles these workers have faced. This journey through the history of the CFO, the richness of this empirical data encompassing more than 30 years of organizing in the maquiladora zone of Northern Mexico also allows us to explore “globalization from below” through different lens. This thesis brings in a micro-detail analysis of a specific organization in a specific context where we can see clearly transnational civil society linkages and the impact of globalizing capitalist neoliberal economy. As such, this research can offer us new insights into the intricacies of local-global linkages and thus contribute to an area often neglected or underdeveloped in international relations (IR).
