The construction of the Aids patient in South African bio-medical discourseLightfoot, Neil Gordon 09 1900 (has links)
The humanised Aids patient increasingly finds itself a part of mainstream popular rhetoric.
There was a time however, when the Aids patient was no more than a disease ravaged corpse
without rights. Conventional histories and analyses tend to gloss over this fact, or argue that
the new, authentic patient is a triumph of wisdom over brute ignorance, fear and superstition.
Such accounts overlook their own role and the part played by the bio-medical sciences in
constructing the Aids patient. This thesis, in contradistinction, traces the Aids patient's
portrayal in South African bio-medical discourses, applying to it the work of Michel
Foucault. In doing so the dynamic interactions of power and knowledge are brought under
the spotlight. / Psychology / M.A. (Psychology)

Seeing and Knowing the Earth as a System : An Effective History of Global Environmental Change Research as Scientific and Political Practice / Att förstå och utforska jorden som ett system : En historik läsning av den globala miljöforskningens som vetenskaplig och politisk praktikUhrqvist, Ola January 2014 (has links)
Previous research connecting scientific knowledge production with governing of the global environment usually start in international climate change negotiations and related assessments. From that vantage point Earth system science and models are studied as an expansion of Global Circulation Models. By tracing of the history of the present Earth system outlook this thesis offers a reflection about how scientific knowledge produce and connects problems with descriptions of desired order of things and strategies to get there. Knowledge becomes a productive power by shaping fields of possible action in relation to the global environment. The interpreted empirical material consists of scientific discussions from the International global environmental change programmes and particularly the International Geosphere-Biosphere Programme (IGBP) and the International Human Dimensions Programme on global environmental change (IHDP). The studied period spans from the start of the planning of the IGBP in 1983 to the presentation of the new research programme Future Earth in 2013. The thesis is organised around the effects of the IGBP’s strategy to use predictive Earth system models as a tool to bring a broad range of scientific disciplines together. The results demonstrate the historicity of the present Earth system outlook by showing how ecosystems and human dimensions were attributed new and more important roles as drivers of global change. The thesis also argue for the need to approach the ‘Earth system’ as a result of a productive tension between top-down perspectives found in global modelling and bottom-up empirical research engaging with process interactions down to local scales. / Genom att studera diskussioner inom internationella miljöforskningsprogram spårar den här avhandlingen framväxten av dagens syn på planeten jorden som ett sammanlänkat system – Jordsystemet. Kopplingen mellan makt och kunskap, styrning och mentaliteter, ligger till grund för studiens tolkande ansats. Den knyter samman sätt att betrakta och beräkna den globala miljön, grunden för jordsystemperspektivet, och de handlingsalternativ det synliggör inom politik och vetenskap. Studien baseras primärt på analyser av arkivmaterial från International Geosphere-Biosphere Programme (IGBP) och International Human Dimensions Programme of Global Environmental Change (IHDP). Tillsammans representerar dessa två program ett brett nätverk för forskning om globala miljöförändringar. Den undersökta perioden startar i och med planeringen av IGBP 1983 och avslutas 2013 med att Future Earth etableras som ett nytt internationellt program för forskning om globala miljöförändringar. Avhandlingen undersöker effekter av IGBPs strategi att använda prediktiva Jordsystemmodeller som ett redskap för att integrera och koordinera forskningen om globala miljöförändringar. Studiens resultat visar på historiciteten i nuvarande sätt att betrakta Jordsystemet. Framförallt studeras hur introducerandet av ekologisk och social komplexitet i förståelsen och modelleringen av Jordsystemet hänger samman med en förändrad bild av relationen människa-miljö och därmed också bilden av globala miljöförändringar som vetenskapligt och politiskt problem. Avhandlingen visar att förståelsen av Jordsystemet vuxit fram i en produktiv spänning mellanovanifrånperspektivet i globala modeller och lokalt förankrad socio-ekologisk interaktion.

Controvérsias científicas acerca do aquecimento global no século XX : uma abordagem histórica de apoio para a formação de professoresAndrade, Andreia Melo January 2018 (has links)
Orientadora: Profa. Dra. Thaís Cyrino de Mello Forato / Coorientador: Prof. Dr. Hélio Bonini Viana / Dissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal do ABC, Programa de Pós-Graduação em Ensino, História, Filosofia das Ciências e Matemática, Santo André, 2018. / A fé cega na ciência e no método científico que geralmente é presente no imaginário e no ideário das pessoas é resultado de como foi construída a visão do conhecimento científico na sociedade. A teoria do Aquecimento Global antropogênico, que é um dos temas mais discutidos na atualidade e é largamente divulgado pelos meios de comunicação, é um exemplo da imposição de neutralidade científica, como também da propagação de uma visão ingênua de um método científico infalível. Nesse sentido, um caminho interessante para ajudar a desmistificar essas visões é levar debates para as escolas e meios de comunicações com enfoques adequados sobre as controvérsias sociocientíficas. Para isso, trabalhamos nessa pesquisa sobre aspectos de controvérsias em torno do Aquecimento Global antropogênico ao longo do século XX. A narrativa histórica que escolhemos nos propiciou perceber que não há consenso na comunidade científica sobre quais as possíveis causas e consequências do aquecimento global, o que torna o tema controverso entre os pesquisadores da área. Adotamos a perspectiva teórico-metodológica da historiografia contextual, bem como o apoio da história do tempo presente, que nos permitiu trazer elementos (políticos, econômicos e científicos) que se configuraram nas contendas científicas em torno da temática aqui apresentada. Desse modo, o objetivo central deste trabalho foi discutir o enfoque dessas controvérsias em torno do aquecimento global antropogênico, mediante uma perspectiva historiográfica. O tema torna-se relevante para a formação de professores, tanto pelos conhecimentos científicos mobilizados, bem como sobre aspectos da prática científica que contextualiza. Como resultado dessa pesquisa apresentamos um texto histórico, e algumas reflexões sobre seu uso na sala de aula, buscando assim oferecer um apoio ao formador de professores. / The blind faith in the science and in the scientific method that is usually present in the imaginary and in the principle of people is a outcome of how the vision of scientific knowledge was constructed in the society. The anthropogenic Global Warming theory, which is one of the most discussed issues nowadays and is widely disseminated by the media, is an example of the imposition of scientific neutrality, as well as of the propagation of a naive view of an infallible scientific method. In this sense, an interesting way to help demystify these visions is to bring debates to schools and media with adequate focus about the socio-scientific controversies. For this, we work on this research on aspects of controversies around anthropogenic Global Warming throughout the twentieth century. The historical narrative we chose propitiated us to perceive that there is no consensus in the scientific community about what are the possible causes and consequences of global warming, which makes the issue controversial among researchers in the area. We adopted the theoretical-methodological perspective of contextual historiography, as well as the support of the history of the present time, which allowed us to bring elements (political, economic and scientific) that were configured in the scientific disputes around the theme presented here. Thus, the central objective of this work was to discuss the focus of these controversies around the anthropogenic global warming, through a historiographical perspective. The theme becomes relevant for the training of teachers, both by the scientific knowledge mobilized, as well as on aspects of the scientific practice that contextualizes. As a result of this research we present a historical text and some reflections on its use in the classroom, thus seeking to offer support to the teacher trainer.

Dějiny spásy v symbolice byzantské liturgie sv. Jana Zlatoústého / The history of salvation in the symbology of the Byzantic liturgy of Saint John ChrysostomFOGL, Jaroslav January 2007 (has links)
The thesis deals with the questions, how the Christians in the Liturgy of Saint John Chrysostom remind themselves the history of salvation and how they make the history of salvation present (i. e. anamnesis of the history of salvation) trough the symbols followed by the word. In the first part the author deals with the Christians symbolic acts in the liturgy as the symbolic acts express their relation to God. In the next part he pays attention to the process of the celebration of the liturgy of Saint John Chrisostom. These themes that describe symbolic acts of celebration are followed by the chapter that deals with the spiritual aspects of the liturgy. For a better orientation in the next text he closes the introductory part with the theological conception of the selected authors of the liturgical commentaries. In the main part of the thesis the author focuses on the history of the liturgy and on the liturgical commentaries of the selected authors of the Orthodox Christianity, who influenced the development of the Byzantine liturgy. Further, he focuses on the analysis of the present text of the liturgy of Saint John Chrysostom, where he searches for the ways the anamnesis of the history of salvation is reached. In the final part of the work he presents the results of the analysis and concludes that the Jesus life is really reminded and made present in the particular parts of the Byzantine liturgy.

Vědecké kategorie a klasifikace lidí: Historická analýza jako metodologický nástroj pro filosofii věd o člověku? / Scientific Categories and Classification of People: Historical analysis as a methodological tool for the philosophy of human sciences?Smiešková, Kornélia January 2019 (has links)
(in English): The aim of the work is to reconstruct and interpret the method of historicized analysis and its employment to examine the phenomenon of "making up people". The concept is Hacking's description for the impact scientific classifications can have on classified people. The point of departure for the examination in the work is the thesis that historicized analysis employs the elements of philosophical conceptual analysis together with historical tools philosophy of science corroborates and whose strategies are often in opposition to the analytical tradition. As a follow-up of the main thesis the work also examines whether the historicized analysis can be understood as a history of the present. Moreover, it asks questions that come up in connection with the project of "making up people" such as: "What are the conditions for a scientific category to emerge? When categories emerge do new kinds of people emerge as well? What is the specific structure that enables the mutual interaction and effect scientific categories and classified people make? One of the aims will therefore be to elucidate to what extend the historicized analysis is able to answer those questions. Last but not least the work looks into the critical implications and usefulness of the method of historicized analysis.

Soigner les étrangers ? L’État et les associations pour la couverture maladie des pauvres et des étrangers en France des années 1980 à nos jours / Access to health care for foreigners? The state and associations for the health cover of the poor and foreigners in France from the 1980s to the present dayIzambert, Caroline 21 November 2018 (has links)
Ce travail ambitionne de comprendre comment ont évolué les dispositifs qui permettent en france aux personnes de nationalité étrangère d'accéder à la prévention et aux soins en ville et à l'hôpital. nous nous demanderons comment et pourquoi sur une période longue un etat permet ou au contraire empêche l'accès d'une population majoritairement plus pauvre que la population générale, les étrangers, à un bien supérieur, la santé.l'objectif est de rendre compte du mouvement apparemment paradoxal que l'on observe depuis près d'une trentaine d'années : d'une part, des politiques migratoires de plus en plus restrictives et répressives, de l'autre, la santé devenue 'un des derniers refuges du droit' (didier fassin) pour les étrangers. cette période a été marquée par des évolutions législatives majeures, qui scanderont notre travail, notamment la mise en place de l'aide médicale d'etat et du droit au séjour pour soins en 1999. nous nous intéresserons aux acteurs étatiques, et en premier lieu, au ministère de la santé mais également à la sécurité sociale et aux associations qui ont joué un rôle double : elles ont mené un intense travail de plaidoyer pour le maintien et le perfectionnement des dispositifs d'accès aux soins et se sont vues délégués une partie de la dispense de soins auprès des populations étrangères. l'accès aux archives officielles étant limité du fait du caractère très contemporain du sujet, nous nous appuierons sur les fonds détenus par les organismes et les personnes privés ainsi que sur la constitution d'archives orales. s'il s'agit d'un travail d'histoire, nous intégrerons des données ethnographiques recueillies lors d'enquêtes de terrain. / In France, the healthcare costs of undocumented foreign nationals are covered by a specific welfare benefitcalled State Medical Aid (Aide médicale d’État). This benefit was created in 2000, as part of the law onUniversal Medical Insurance (Couverture médicale universelle) which enables French nationals andundocumented foreign nationals to benefit from the state health insurance scheme (Assurance maladie) as longas they are resident in France. This thesis explores the origins of a measure created exclusively for people whosepresence on French territory is judged illegal and the impact of the existence of this particular healthcarecoverage.The approach brings together a history of public policy and an ethnography of care settings and reception centresfor undocumented foreign nationals.Part One retraces the stages involved in opening up access to the state health insurance scheme from the mid-1980s onwards. It focuses on the way in which a distinction progressively emerged between the public healthissue of undocumented people accessing healthcare, and that of poor people accessing healthcare. The role ofhumanitarian associations, notably Doctors without Borders and Doctors of the World, who opened freehealthcare centres in France from 1986 onwards, is underscored, as are their links with movements defending therights of foreigners. These processes are located within a longer history of debates about access to welfare forthe poorest going back to the nineteenth century, and the subordination of social policy to the objectives ofcontrolling migratory flows.Part Two, based on research carried out in a hospital and in a health rights organization, analyses theconsequences of the introduction of immigration administrative categories into the healthcare system as well asthe emergence of a degraded form of social citizenship for people living illegally in France.
