Orientadora: Larissa Maués Pelúcio Silva / Banca: Anna Paula Vencato / Banca: Luís Antônio Francisco / Resumo: Este trabalho traz em seu corpo, discussões teóricas e etnográficas sobre o universo daspolíticas educacionais, educação não formal e seus desdobramentos e implicações nocampo da militância e do ativismo político de pessoas trans. Situo o contexto das políticaspúblicas educacionais destinadas às pessoas trans e o movimento de travestis etransexuais, tal análise num plano institucional é confrontada com as experiências daetnografia multissituada, que são analisadas pela teoria queer e outros aportes pósestruturalistas. Abordo como o espaço de política e reinvindicação tem sido constituídoem Uberaba, quanto as pautas de gênero e sexualidade, embora nem sempre a resistênciapolítica seja reconhecida. Também registro a rotina de espaços educativos alternativos,os "Cursinhos trans", que através de suas ações constituem um espaço político para aspessoas trans, que garantem novas formas de existência e concebem outros modos deacesso a cidadania. Assim, ao abordar experiências políticas que se constroem para alémde um plano institucionalizado, seja através do "fazer política" ou dos cursinhos, operoalguns deslocamentos sobre o que é fazer política e de como se tecem as negociações eos enfrentamentos. Esse é um trabalho sobre resistência, sobre vidas abjetas, que têm sidoexcluídas e de como essas vidas têm resistido e inventado ao seu próprio modopossibilidades de respirar e de inspirar. / Abstract: This work brings in its body, theoretical and ethnographic discussions about the universe of educational policies, non-formal education and its consequences and implications in the field of militancy and political activism of transpeople. I situate the context of public educational policies for transpeople and the transvestite and transsexual movement, such analysis of an institutional level and confronted with as multi-situational experiences and interpretations, which are analyzed by queer theory and other poststructuralist contributions. I relate how the space of politics and claim have been constituted in Uberaba, as well as the gender and sexuality guidelines, although it is not a recognized political policy. On the other hand, "Trans Cursinhos", which through their actions constitute a political space for transpeople, which guarantee new forms of existence and conceptualize other modes of accessing to citizenship. Thus, when addressing political experiences which are built beyond an institutionalized plan, through "doing politics" or the courses, I operate a few shifts about what is doing politics and how they weave themselves into negotiations and confrontations. This is a work about endurance, about abject lives, which have been excluded and how these lives have been resisted and invented in their own way of breathing and inspiration possibilities. / Mestre

This thesis critically compares how domestic human rights NGOs (DNGOs) in the United States, Britain and Germany use (or mobilise) law to enforce human rights standards and proposes a method to measure their effectiveness in doing so. To do this it draws upon both case studies and literature from many disciplines. On the basis of the data and the literature it finds that, despite their great diversity, DNGOs in each jurisdiction show general similarities in their ???styles??? of operation and use of the law. It also finds that their effectiveness in enforcing human rights can be ascertained with reasonable accuracy and that a DNGO???s size and access to resources does not necessarily correlate with its effectiveness. The context in which the above questions were investigated was one in which there existed very little literature that examined the work of DNGOs (as opposed to international NGOs) as well as few theoretical approaches that would allow their activities to be critically examined and compared. It was also a context in which there was a great deal of discussion in the literature about the crucial importance of DNGOs in human rights enforcement and a growing suspicion that Globalisation might be making their role even more important than it was in the past. To address these issues the author used case studies to supply the necessary detail and a method using ???ideal types??? to assess the data. He also proposed a method to measure DNGO effectiveness so that the case studies could be more thoroughly compared and their true success in human rights enforcement revealed. Despite the incredible diversity among DNGOs the author was able to draw a few useful conclusions about how successful DNGOs operate. In response to these conclusions the author proposed that one possible route by which DNGOs could improve their effectiveness was to transplant their characteristics between jurisdictions. The author also found some evidence that Globalisation was having an effect on DNGOs and proposed some ways in which individual case studies could take advantage of this.

O presente estudo tem como objetivo perceber o impacto da crise da pós-modernidade entre os militantes católicos em defesa dos Direitos Humanos do Recife, no período histórico de 1980 a 2000. Como perceber a militância, após a saída e Dom Helder? Fazendo o uso das teorias de Gramsci para construir o universo de pesquisa, e assim perceber o alcance da crise da pós-modernidade entre os católicos engajados. Tal universo foi composto por professores Curso de Teologia da Universidade Católica, que participaram de pastorais e movimentos no período histórico da presente pesquisa. Utilizando entrevistas pessoais, foi possível concluir que, assim como todos os que compõem a sociedade e seus estamentos, os militantes sofreram os efeitos da pós-modernidade, o que refletiu em sua atuação / The present study it has as objective to perceive the impact of the crisis of the after-modernity on the catholic militants in defense of the Human Rights in Recife, in the historical period of 1980 the 2000.
