Depuis la thèse de Germaine Coutard-Salmon, soutenue en 1980 et consacrée à l'étude monographique de Chana Orloff (1888-1968), peu de travaux ont porté sur cette artiste. Cette thèse se propose donc de mettre en perspective l'œuvre sculpté et l'œuvre graphique (dessins, gravures et illustrations) de l'artiste, de 1910 à sa mort, exécutés entre Paris et Israël. L'étude privilégiera les sujets, les techniques, les supports, mais aussi les orientations esthétiques qui parcourent l'oeuvre et l'inscrivent dans l'histoire et dans l'histoire de l'art Commencée à Paris sous les auspices d'un héritage cubiste et d'une tentation Art déco, son œuvre – où abondent les portraits, les Maternités et les sujets animaliers - , développe une esthétique reposant sur la simplification des formes, leur apurement et leur étirement et sur des compositions frontales traversées par une ambition décorative, qu'on a rapproché tour à tour de Modigliani, d'Archipenko ou de Nadelman. Puis, à partir de la fin de la Deuxième Guerre mondiale et au moment de la création de l'Etat d'Israël, son art devient plus tourmenté et plus expressif. C'est aussi le moment où lui sont confiées, par l'Etat juif, d'importantes commandes monumentales. D'un point de vue méthodologique, la thèse s'appuiera notamment, mais non exclusivement, sur l'exploitation scientifique des fonds conservés à ce jour d'œuvres et de documents issus de l'atelier de l'artiste et interrogera la réception critique de l'œuvre de Chana Orloff à partir des années 1920, ainsi que les conditions de sa diffusion internationale (les galeristes, les marchands, les collectionneurs…) dans la perspective d'une histoire culturelle, sociale et politique de l'art. / Since Germaine Coutard-Salmon's thesis, presented in 1980 and devoted to the monographic study of Chana Orloff (1888-1968), there were not many other works published about this artist. The aim of this thesis is to put an emphasis on the sculpted and graphic works of art (drawings, engravings and illustrations) of the artist, since 1910 until her death, and achieved in both Paris and Israel. This study will deal with the subjects, the technics, the supports, but also the aesthetic orientations of her work which made her a part of history and art history. Started in Paris under the auspices of a cubist's heritage and Art deco's temptation, her work – characterized by many portraits, Maternities and animalist subjects -, developed an aesthetic based on the simplification of shapes, their balancing and their being stretched and on frontal compositions mixed with a decorative ambition, which has often been compared to Modigliani, Archipenko or Nadelman's work. Then, from the end of the Second World War and the time of the creation of Israel's State, her art became more tormented and more expressive. This was also the moment when the Jewish State commissioned her to produce a great number of works of art. From a methodological point of view, this thesis will be based in particular, but not exclusively, on the scientific exploitation of the funds preserved until now, made up of the works and documents of the artist's workshop and will question the critical reception of Chana Orloff's work from the 1920's until now, as well as the conditions of its international diffusion (gallerists, art dealers, collectors.....) from a cultural, social and political point of view of art.

Esta tese tem por objetivo explorar os mecanismos e dinâmicas que podem afetar as trajetórias educacionais dos jovens, provocando mudanças ou fortalecendo a sua direção inicial. Para caracterizar o tipo de trajetória, olhamos para os seguintes elementos: distorção idade-série, reprovações, expulsões e evasão escolar. Exploramos de que forma as esferas de sociabilidade em que os jovens estão inseridos - a família, a escola, a vizinhança, o trabalho, os programas sociais, a igreja e o lazer se articulam e afetam as suas trajetórias escolares. Além disso, investigamos em que medida eventos que ocorrem ao longo da vida do jovem podem afetar a sua conduta, a sua relação com os elos estabelecidos nos diferentes espaços de sociabilidade e, consequentemente, os seus percursos educacionais. As análises feitas neste trabalho são de cunho qualitativo. Utilizamos os seguintes instrumentos: entrevistas em profundidade, guiadas por um roteiro prévio, conversas livres, observação participativa e observação passiva da interação. Apesar de termos nos limitado a uma escola, encontramos entre os entrevistados heterogeneidade em termos de atributos individuais e dimensões socioeconômicas e culturais, fatores que influenciam as trajetórias escolares. No entanto, identificamos jovens com atributos e condições socioeconômicas similares, mas trajetórias distintas. Nestes casos, as relações estabelecidas com os elos das esferas de sociabilidade e as formas como lidaram com as situações de crise explicam as diferenças encontradas. / This thesis aims to explore the mechanisms and dynamics that may affect, cause changes or strengthen the initial direction of the educacional trajectories of youngsters. In order to characterize the type of trajectory, we looked at the following factors: age-grade distortion, grade retention, expulsion and drop-out. We explored how the spheres of sociability of the youngsters - family, school, neighbourhood, work, social programs, church and leisure - are associated and affect their school trajectories. In addition, we investigated the extent to which events that occur throughout their life can affect their behaviour, their relationship with ties established in different spheres of sociability and, consequently, their educational trajectories. The analysis made in this study are qualitative. The following instruments were used: in-depth interviews, free conversations, participant observation and passive interaction observation. Although we limited ourselves to one school, we found heterogeneity among respondents in terms of individual attributes and socioeconomic and cultural dimensions, factors that influence school trajectories. However, we identified young people with similar socioeconomic characteristics and conditions but distinct paths. In these cases, the differences found can be explained by the relationship established with ties in spheres of sociability and the ways in which crisis situations were dealt with

Recent research indicates that children with language impairment (LI) often experience difficulties with social communication. Although the empirical basis for general social communication intervention is growing, information documenting the efficacy of these interventions for children with LI remains limited. The purpose of this study was to examine the effectiveness of a social communication intervention on teacher perceptions of sociability in five elementary-aged children with LI. The intervention focused on the presentation and use of children's stories to target aspects of emotion understanding. The two sociability subscales of the Teacher Behavior Rating Scale (TBRS), impulse control/likeability and prosocial behavior, were used as variables with which to measure teacher perception. Pre and post intervention measures of teacher ratings were taken and compared for each participant. Results indicated that four of the five participants received higher ratings for prosocial behaviors following treatment, with two participants scoring within typical range for their age. Two participants remained stable in their pre and posttreatment scores for impulse control/likeability, one participant increased in their ratings, and two of the participants had a decline in posttreatment scores for impulse control/likeability. This study revealed noteworthy improvements in prosocial behaviors in children with LI, even while problems with impulse control remained or increased. This was to be expected considering the intervention focused on emotion understanding which leads to prosocial behavior, whereas the intervention did not focus explicitly on impulse control. Implications of these results were discussed and suggestions for further research were offered.

In the unique post-war and post-socialist arena several recent studies onformer Yugoslavian countries indicate that young people confronted by challengesof risk and uncertainty are turning away from the national and politicalsphere. Instead, they often seek trust and opportunities in their networks and relationshipson a personal level. This thesis explores the narratives and everydaypractices of young adults in Sarajevo regarding their friendship sociabilities. The aim is to provide an insight on how friendships are characterised, experiencedand related to the specific social and economic organisations that influencesthem. Based on fieldwork carried out in Sarajevo, Bosnia & Herzegovina myproject wants to present how young adults are reflecting and developing aspirationsin the light of their available choices and opportunities in life and how theyare using their friends in order to access various types of benefits and support. It is argued that in specific contexts friendships constitute the main social capitals and orientation points for young people. In order to explore and navigate through the different interests and agendas present in their community when it comes to personal education, career development and housing young peoplenecessarily choose to favour the reliance on their informal solidarities in form offriendships.

Ramunė Bleizgienė‘s dissertaiton Female Identity Problem in Lithuanian Women’s Creative Writing in the Late 19th – Early 20th Century analyses identity as a result of an interaction between a person and his/her socio-cultural context, by raising a question how the development of modern Lithuanian society influenced the forms of female identity. A heterogeneous methodological perspective introduces a shift in female identity as an inseparable part of the process of women becoming public individuals. The exploration of creative texts by Žemaitė, Gabrielė Petkevičaitė-Bitė, Šatrijos Ragana, Ona Pleirytės-Puidienė Vaidilutė and Sofija Kymantaitė-Čiurlionienė reveals how the writing women bring up and establish themselves as a speaking public subject. A thorough analysis of women’s writing, their diaries, letters, and memoirs reveals the ways in which the writing women experience their sociability, and emphasizes the impact that socio-cultural definitions of an individual/woman made on women’s self-perception. Structural changes in female identity undergo analysis in a condensed socio-cultural context with a review and a presentation of many texts by female authors that were circulating in public space, which gives a view of the multiple nature and complexity of the process. The study presents a lot of journalistic and fiction texts that were written in the late 19th – early 20th century, but were not in the scope of analysis up to the present moment.

Remiantis keleriopa metodologine perspektyva, moterų tapatybės kaita pristatoma kaip neatsiejama moterų tapimo viešais asmenimis proceso dalis. Analizuojant Žemaitės, Gabrielės Petkevičaitės-Bitės, Šatrijos Raganos, Onos Pleirytės-Puidienės Vaidilutės ir Sofijos Kymantaitės-Čiurlionienės kūrybą siekiama išsiaiškinti, kaip rašydamos moterys įsteigia ir įtvirtina save kaip kalbantįjį viešumos subjektą. Nuodugniai nagrinėjant moterų kūrinius, daugiausia – pirminius variantus, dienoraščius, laiškus, atsiminimus, stebima, kaip rašančiosios patyrė savąjį socialumą, ryškinama, kaip moterų savivoka buvo veikiama sociokultūrinių asmens / moters apibrėžčių. Moters tapatybės struktūriniai pokyčiai tyrinėjami sutankintame sociokultūriniame kontekste, apžvelgiant ir pristatant daugybę viešojoje erdvėje cirkuliavusių moterų tekstų, padedančių įsivaizduoti vykusio proceso daugialypiškumą ir kompleksiškumą. Disertacijoje pristatoma nemažai XIX a. pabaigos–XX a. pradžios moterų publicistikos ir grožinės kūrybos tekstų, kurie iki šiol nebuvo patekę į tyrinėjimų akiratį.

Studien undersöker spelares sociala upplevelse inom online dataspelet World of Warcraft (Blizard entertainment 2004). Detta görs genom att studera de designförändringar som sker med verktyget "Guild" från 2004 fram tills Juni 2013.Verktyget "Guild" är avsett för att ge spelare ett sätt  att skapa grupper, så kallade "guilder" som kan närmast efterlikna föreningar inom verkliga livet. Studien har haft som syfte att försöka förstå den sociala interaktionen som kan äga rum i olika "Guilder". Det är sedan planerat att använda sig av Simmels teori om interaktion och artikeln "The Metropolis and Mental Life” (1903) för att förstå spelarens upplevelse. Materialet består av tre djupa intervjuer, händelselogg av tekniska förändringar samt två fokus intervjuer från en tidigare studie. Resultatet visar att respondenternas upplevelse kan relateras till tre olika teman som bygger upp funktionen, Medlemskap och Tillgänglighet, Guild identitet samt en instrumentell karaktär. Den instrumentella karaktären beror på den starka sammankopplingen som finns till karaktärsutvecklingen, där de används som ett verktyg för att klara av de aktiviteter som kräver flera spelare. En gruppidentitet skapas i Guilds med hjälp av visuella ändringar, där t.ex. Guild namnet finns ovanför karaktären. Medlemskap samt Tillgänglighet är hur spelare måste gå tillväga för att få ett medlemskap. Samtliga teman har sedan används för att förstå utvecklingen av Guild verktyget. Studien fann att den sociala upplevelsen minskades för respondenterna med utvecklingen av verktyget. Guild verktyget visade sig också förknippas starkt med spelarens karaktärs utveckling. Detta kan bero på att ökningen av potentiella nätverk som Guild funktionen tillför skapar ett behov av automatiska strukturer. Interaktionsprocesser minskar med utvecklingen av verktyget vilket kan göra att den sociala upplevelsen minskar. Guild verktyget har också en design som uppmuntrar ett Instrumentellt användande samtidigt som det ger möjlighet till social interaktion. Denna design leder till att verktyget främst används för interaktionsformer som innefattar Exchange snarare än Sociability.

Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior / Esta tese tem como objetivo principal fazer dialogar gênero, cultura popular e crime. O fio condutor do trabalho são as técnicas de conflitos e gestão da violência como interações possuidoras de imagens sexuais (STRATHERN, 2006) analisadas nos encontros de força (MACHADO DA SILVA, 2008) entre moradores e traficantes na favela Nova Holanda, Maré - Rio de Janeiro. Resulta de pesquisa sobre o universo de valentia de galeras Funk e a pacificação do Comando Vermelho analisado a partir de relatos e percursos etnográficos que me foram possíveis através da experiência de moradora cria. Argumento que este processo realiza uma expansão discursiva do crime (FELTRAN, 2006) produzindo perturbações físico-morais (DUARTE, 1987) - expressas pela categoria êmica neurose. As performances proibidas Funk revelam diferentes técnicas de si afirmativas, ofensivas e defensivas parte de um espectro ampliado de representações articuladas por uma gramática patriarcal de guerra e paz responsável pela oposição entre mundos masculinos e femininos. Neste contexto normalizador sãoperformados(BUTLER, 2004) o sujeito homem, a amante e a fiel, enquanto personas populares de valentia que reatualizam a histórica mediação entre o malandro e o bandido (MISSE, 1999). Nas situações vividas, o idioma de gênero permite explorar a produção de fronteiras entre o uso da força e a regulação do convívio, indicando nexos variados de como se processam os conflitos, seja por anulação, mediação e/ou explicitação / The main objective of this thesis is opening a dialogue between gender, popular culture, and crime. The rationale guiding this work are techniques of conflict and managing violence used as forms of interaction having sexual images (STRATHERN, 2006) analyzed in displays of force (MACHADO DA SILVA, 2008) among residents and drug traffickers in the Nova Holanda favela, in the Maré community- Rio de Janeiro. The research results on the universe of Funk gangs prowess and the pacification of the Red Command drug group are analyzed using ethnographical accounts and trajectories that I was able to collect because of my experience as a native resident of this favela. I will argue that this process achieves a discursive expansion of crime (FELTRAN, 2006) producing physical and moral disturbances (DUARTE, 1987) - expressed by the emic category neurosis. The prohibited Funk performances reveal distinct techniques among each other - affirmative, offensive, and defensive - part of a widened spectrum of representations articulated by a patriarchal grammar of war and peace responsible for the opposition between masculine and feminine worlds. From this normativizing context the male subject, mistress, and the faithful wife are performed as popular personae of valor that update the historical mediation between the hustler and the bandit (MISSE, 1999). In these situations as they are experienced, the gender idiom permits exploring the production of borderlines between the use of force and the regulation of living together, indicating variable nexuses as to how conflicts are processed, whether by nullifying them, mediation, and/or explication.

Essa implantação veio acompanhada por um discurso que mostra essas inovações como característica de um mundo novo e cheio de possibilidades, um mundo em que as formas de relação conhecidas, sobretudo aquelas referentes à sociabilidade, desapareceriam e dariam lugar à novas formas. Nosso trabalho se focou em analisar em que medida as novas tecnologias, sobretudo a do ciberespaço, estão fazendo parte da vida das pessoas e, em que medida, esse processo de substituição realmente está ocorrendo. Para isso, além de vários estudos e debates sobre o tema, lançamos mão junto aos usuários de jogos em rede de um questionário visando a obtenção de dados sobre a forma como o entrevistado faz uso desses serviços e até que ponto podemos perceber se e quais tipos de alterações / substituições operam na sociabilidade virtual recentemente. Estudamos ainda nessa pesquisa, algumas formas de sociabilidade online, os jogos multiplayer em rede, bem como as formas de interação que este proporciona no ciberespaço e fora dele. / In the last decades of last century, a series of technological innovations, above all in the computer science area (communication protocols, expansion of the telecommunications, the creation and structuring of the net, among other), they started to do part of our daily life more and more. That implantation came accompanied by a speech that shows those innovations as characteristic of a new world and full of possibilities, a world in that the known relationship forms, above all those regarding the sociability, would disappear and they would give place to new forms. Our work if it focused in analyzing in that measured the new technologies, above all the one of the cyberspace, they are being part of the people's life and, in that measured, that substitution process is really happening. For that, besides several studies and debates on the theme, we threw hand close to the users of games in net of a questionnaire seeking the obtaining of data on the form as the interviewee makes use of those services and to what extent we can be noticed and which types of alterations / substitutions operate in the virtual sociability recently. We still studied in that research, some forms of sociability online, the games multiplayer in net, as well as the interaction forms that this provides in the cyberspace and out of him.

A segregação urbana é um processo discriminatório que pode ser enfocado sob vários ângulos. O estudo é de um caso de auto-segregação - isolamento voluntário de indivíduos ou grupos - na cidade de Marília, interior de São Paulo. Examina-se o fenômeno dos condomínios horizontais a partir de relatos de agentes imobiliários, de alguns moradores de um condomínio e simpatizantes pela opção. O referencial metodológico utilizado remete à corrente de pesquisa conhecida como interacionismo simbólico mais especificamente o de concepção fenomenológica. Pela descrição e análise de raciocínios empregados pelos relatantes busca-se uma explicação descritiva sobre um caso particular. Considera-se três aspectos principais: a importância da moradia como sinal de status; os mecanismos que criam a sensação de segurança nos condomínios horizontais; e a pretensão de autonomia nos empreendimentos que têm como objetivo a criação de micro-comunidades, como simulacros de um ideal de vida passado. Ao apresentar espaços coletivos internos como similares ao que um dia foi espaço público, altera-se público para coletivo no sentido de entender coletivo como público selecionado. / The tendency to separate dwelling zones for distinct social levels of the population is quite common in the cities. The urban segregation is a discriminatory process that can be focused from different points of view. The study is about a case of self-segregation - voluntary isolation of individuals or human groups - in Marília, São Paulo. The phenomenum of the horizontal condominiums is examined starting from accounts given by real estate agents, by people who live in a condominium and people who like the idea. The methodology used in this paper is the research method known as symbolic interactionism in its phenomenological version. This study is conducted following the analysis and the description of the reasoning used by those who were interviewed and tries to find a descriptive explanation for one particular case. The main aspects considered are the importance of dwelling as a status symbol; the processes which create the sensation of security in horizontal condominiums; and the idea of autonomy in the undertakings which have as an objective the creation of micro-communities as an imitation of an ideal life in the past. As they present internal collective spaces as if they were similar to a public space which existed once, one changes public to collective in order to understand collective as a selected public. KEY WORDS: urban anthropology; urban segregation; cities; horizontal condominiums; sociability.

The essays are: Idea for a Universal History from a Cosmopolitan Perspective, Conjectural Beginning of Human History and Toward Perpetual Peace. In our understanding, it is possible to assume the idea of antagonism as a guiding thread of an analysis of Kant's philosophy of history, insofar as it is shown that for the philosopher the unsociable sociability is the source of all human progress. Our objective is to highlight three historical philosophical moments in the analyzed texts, and to demonstrate how antagonism is responsible for the passage from one moment to another, thus, corroborating its importance. / A presente dissertação tem por objetivo analisar três ensaios do filósofo alemão Immanuel Kant que versam sobre sua filosofia da história, destacando dentro deles o conceito de insociável sociabilidade. Os ensaios são: Ideia de uma história universal de um ponto de vista cosmopolita, Começo conjectural da história humana e À paz perpétua. Em nossa compreensão, torna-se possível assumir a ideia de antagonismo como um fio condutor de uma análise acerca da filosofia da história de Kant, na medida em que se demonstra que para o filósofo a insociável sociabilidade é a fonte de todo o progresso humano. Nosso objetivo é destacar os três momentos históricos filosóficos nos textos analisados, e demonstrar como o antagonismo é o responsável pela passagem de um momento ao outro, corroborando com isso, sua importância.
