This essay deals with sexual power abuse in J.M Coetzee’s Disgrace. The essay focuses on the two characters David and Petrus and their way of acting. The question asked is simply: how do these two men use women to gain their power? And how do they deal with women? The result can be summarized in the following way: at the beginning the male characters tear women apart till they become totally insecure and thus they can control them completely. Petrus remains this way but as time goes by, David’s thoughts of women gradually changes. The essay also focuses on how David and Petrus shift in power. David, who started out as strong, becomes weak, and Petrus develops in the opposite direction and I am going to argue that this is a result of their relations to women. The essay uses a gender perspective and it can be considered a guide to the sexual abuse in Disgrace.

Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior / O papel do Estado ao longo do Historia foi bem diversificado, ora com um caráter interventor, e ora com uma postura de regular o mínimo necessário. Esta última postura, proporcionou grandes déficit no setor de infraestrutura, desequilíbrios sociais, favelização, loteamentos irregulares e a não efetivação do direito à moradia. Deste modo, o Estado precisou ampliar a sua atuação na regularização do solo, visando uma regularização fundiária plena que incluiria desde a instalação da urbanização e infraestrutura adequada à concessão de títulos reconhecendo a posse e/ou propriedade do indivíduo. Suprir a carência de infraestrutura, urbanização e organização do solo que se acumularam nas últimas décadas, esbarra na falência fiscal do Estado Brasileiro, que precisa tomar para si a responsabilidade da regularização, mas, principalmente buscar parcerias com o setor privado. A atuação das organizações sociais, das organizações da sociedade civil de interesse público e as parcerias público-privadas precisam ser ampliadas na efetivação da regularização fundiária. Necessário se faz que o investimento não seja exclusivamente público, possibilitando conceder ao parceiro privado, através da utilização de certos instrumentos jurídicos do próprio Estatuto da Cidade como uma contraprestação interessante a este parceiro. Somente vivenciando uma interpretação e aplicação conjunta dos instrumentos jurídicos à disposição do Estado aliado a vontade política, que poderá ser garantido o desenvolvimento prometido à população brasileira e a efetivação do direito constitucional à moradia. / The role of the state throughout the history was very diverse, sometimes with an intervening trend, and sometimes with a will to regulate the minimum necessary. The latter approach, fedback huge deficits in the infrastructure sector, social imbalances, slums, subdivisions and non realization of housing rights. Thus, the state needed to expand its participation in the settlement of the soil to a full regularization since that would include the installation of urbanization and infrastructure appropriate to the granting of property papers recognizing the possession and / or the individual property. Addressing the lack of infrastructure, urbanization and organization of the soil that have accumulated in recent decades, is barred by the failure of the Brazilian tax, which must take upon itself the responsibility of the settlement, but mainly to seek partnerships with the private sector. The role of social organizations of civil society organizations in the public interest and public-private partnerships need to be broadened in the effectiveness of regularization. Investment shold not be only public, enabling grant to the private partner, through the use of certain legal instruments of the Statute of the City itself as a form of consideration to this interesting partner. Only experimenting a combined interpretation and application of legal instruments available to the State together with a political will, which may be secured to the Brazilian population the promised development and realization of the constitutional right to housing.

Este trabalho está centrado em uma abordagem sócio-antropológica da religião, e se baseia em um estudo de caso efetivado por meio de método etnográfico, composto por técnicas de observação participante, entrevistas, história de vida e convívio cotidiano. Neste estudo, foi estabelecido como pontos centrais de análise as redes de cooperação que se moldavam no grupo, os modos pelos quais os rituais presididos pela entidade proporcionavam a ressignificação da experiência dos participantes deste grupo religioso, assim como as repercussões implicadas em um contexto maior de suas vivências. Além disso, esta pesquisa se propõe a expor uma discussão a respeito dos modos como a literatura e esta análise estão discutindo o fenômeno da possessão e agência de entidades espirituais. Perpassando os capítulos, ainda é possível notar uma discussão a respeito do campo religioso brasileiro, e sobre a maneira como sua estrutura proporciona as práticas religiosas aqui analisadas.The research presented here has as goal to analyse relationship networks generated by possession experience of a spiritual entity, in religious hausehold session, in a popular zone in Salvador, Bahia, Brazil.

Le droit contemporain de la conjugalité est fondé sur un principe de pluralisme. Néanmoins, la notion de couple est de plus en plus prégnante. Le mariage, le pacte civil de solidarité et le concubinage apparaissent ainsi comme le reflet d’une conjugalité qui se veut plurielle, dont les effets sont progressifs mais qui est de plus en plus contrarié par l’unité de la notion de couple. D’ailleurs, les relations patrimoniales quotidiennes des époux, des partenaires pacsés et des concubins sont organisées autour des mêmes principes : un renforcement des collaborations économiques et des exigences de protection patrimoniale. Il peut alors être proposé d’introduire au Code civil, de lege ferenda, une définition unitaire de la notion de couple ainsi qu’un socle de règles applicables à tous les couples, sans égard pour leur mode de conjugalité. Les relations patrimoniales quotidiennes du couple seraient ainsi régies par des règles identiques conformément à l’unité de la notion de couple. L’unité de la notion de couple n’efface cependant pas totalement le principe de pluralisme des conjugalités. Malgré le rapprochement des dispositions du mariage et du PACS, ces deux modes de conjugalités institutionnels répondent de modèles patrimoniaux différents. Passée l’organisation des relations patrimoniales quotidiennes, chaque époux a en effet vocation à participer à l’enrichissement réalisé par l’autre pendant l’union. En revanche, la participation de chaque partenaire à l’enrichissement de l’autre est réduite aux seules opérations d’investissement. / The contemporary law of conjugality is based on a principle of pluralism. Nevertheless, the notion of “couple” is increasingly significant. Indeed, marriage, civil partnership (PACS) and cohabitation appear as a reflection of a conjugality which claims to be plural and with gradual effects. But the latter is increasingly hindered by the unity of the notion of couple. Besides, the daily patrimonial relations of spouses, civil partners and unmarried partners are organised around the same principles: strengthening economic collaborations and assigning the appropriate patrimonial protection. Therefore it may be considered to introduce in the Civil code, de lege ferenda, a unitary definition of the notion of couple as well as a set of common rules for all couples, regardless of their form of conjugality. The daily patrimonial relations of all couples would subsequently be governed by the same rules according to the unity of the notion of couple. However, the unity of the notion of couple does not completely erase the principle of pluralism of conjugalities. Despite the convergence between marriage and civil partnership, both those institutional modes of conjugalities rely on different economic models. Indeed, set aside the daily patrimonial organization, in a marital situation each spouse is entitled to a participation in the enrichment achieved by the other during the union - whereas the participation of each civil partner in the other’s enrichment is strictly limited to the investment operations.
