A Fundação Ford e o fomento para instituições estratégicas e lideranças acadêmicas no Brasil : análise sobre a parceria com a Fundação Getúlio Vargas / The Ford Foundation and the promotion for strategic institutions and academic leadership in Brazil : analysis of partnership with Getulio Vargas Foundation

Santos-Rocha, Ednéia Silva, 1981- 03 September 2015 (has links)
Orientador: Cristina de Campos / Tese (doutorado) - Universidade Estadual de Campinas, Instituto de Geociências / Made available in DSpace on 2018-08-27T11:29:21Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 1 Santos-Rocha_EdneiaSilva_D.pdf: 2414561 bytes, checksum: bc31afd4e90013dc15cd201cdb87ef24 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2015 / Resumo: As fundações privadas sem fins lucrativos são entidades que se constituem por um conjunto de bens direcionados teoricamente para fins religiosos, morais, culturais ou de assistência. No entanto, nessa tese demonstrou-se que essas entidades procuraram fabricar e institucionalizar modelos dominantes, fomentando instituições estratégicas e formando lideranças acadêmicas. Essas fundações fazem certas imposições em relação aos projetos aprovados de forma indireta. Isso porque definem os parâmetros institucionais, profissionais e intelectuais dos seus beneficiários, e sugerem as agendas de pesquisa de acordo com seus interesses. Supõem-se que as parcerias estabelecidas entre fundações privadas e seus donatários envolveram articulações sociais, políticas, ideológicas e econômicas, pois essas entidades foram agentes dessas formulações para promover projetos de ordem social liberal. Nesse contexto, o objetivo desta tese é entender o relacionamento da Fundação Ford com instituições brasileiras, principalmente sua parceria com a Fundação Getúlio Vargas (FGV), instituição que encontra-se entre as primeiras donatárias da Fundação Ford no Brasil. Por meio de análises teóricas e com o uso de metodologia quanti-qualitativa, procedeu-se a análise de diferentes dados de pesquisa, uma vez que a convergência de resultados advindos de fontes distintas ofereceu evidências sobre os convênios e acordos estabelecidos. Assim, organizou-se e analisou-se os dados, a partir de fontes primárias como os Relatórios Anuais da Fundação Ford e fontes secundárias como: a base de dados digital de doações da Fundação Ford, o repositório digital da FGV e a consulta a diversos sites dos donatários identificados na pesquisa. O estudo constatou que a Fundação Ford no Brasil patrocinou principalmente fundações, associações, universidades e organizações não governamentais, nas quais procurou encontrar soluções "científicas" para os problemas sociais, canalizando esforços intelectuais para manter a ordem social estabelecida pelas classes dominantes. Desse modo, a fundação norte-americana promoveu consensos entre intelectuais e instituições dominantes da sociedade brasileira, que funcionaram como multiplicadores das ideologias e modelos institucionais, como pode ser evidenciado entre a parceria entre Fundação Ford e FGV / Abstract: Private foundations are non-profit entities that theoretically constitute a set of targeted goods for religious, moral, cultural or assistance purposes. However, this thesis shows that these entities have sought to manufacture and institutionalize dominant models, fostering strategic institutions and graduate academic leaders. These foundations make indirectly charges in exchange for approved projects. It happens because they define the institutional, professional and intellectual parameters of their beneficiaries, and suggest research agendas according to their interests. It assumes that the partnerships between private foundations and their grantees involves social, political, ideological and economic joints, because these entities are agents of such formulations to promote liberal and social projects. In this context, the aim of this thesis is to understand the relationship of the Ford Foundation (FF) with Brazilian institutions, especially its partnership with the Getúlio Vargas Foundation (FGV), an institution that is among the first grantee of FF in Brazil. Through theoretical analysis and quantitative and qualitative methodology, different research data were analyzed, since the convergence of results, which came from different sources, provided evidence of the covenants and agreements reached. So data were organized and analyzed from primary sources such as the Annual Reports of the FF and secondary sources such as: a digital database of grants from the FF, the digital repository of FGV and several sites of grantees identified in the survey. This study found that FF in Brazil sponsored mainly foundations, associations, universities and nongovernmental organizations, in which sought to find "scientific" solutions to social problems, channeling intellectual efforts to maintain the social order established by the dominant classes. Thus, the US foundation promoted consensus among intellectuals and dominant institutions of Brazilian society, who have acted as multipliers of ideologies and institutional models, as evidenced from the partnership between FF and FGV / Doutorado / Politica Cientifica e Tecnologica / Doutora em Política Científica e Tecnológica

Vårt dagliga bröd giv oss idag. Hungersnöd, krishantering och resiliens i Stockholm 1650–1750 / Give Us This Day Our Daily Bread. Famine, Crisis management and Resilience in Stockholm 1650-1750

Wikland, Linda January 2020 (has links)
Famines were recurring events in the early-modern world. This thesis aims to identify and analyse institutional, social, and political parameters that improved or reduced the society’s capacity for crisis management and institutional adaptations in Stockholm in times of foodshortages during the period 1650–1750. The study consists of four case studies. The study shows that the government effectiveness improved during the investigated period, which increased the possibilities to mitigate the consequences of famine. Furthermore, the ambition to protect the social order seems to have been the most important driving force to take measures to ease and prevent famines in Stockholm. I conclude that very few institutional adaptations to prevent future famines were made during the period. Most likely because the elite lacked political incentives to act. The study provides knowledge on societal resilience in the early-modern era

Význam genderu v (pro) sociální teorii Pierra Bourdieu / The Meaning of Gender in (for) the Social Theory of Pierre Bourdieu

Čepelová, Hedvika January 2013 (has links)
This thesis concerns about how the concept of gender interacts in broader social theory of Pierre Bourdieu. Main interest lays on the potentiality to extend useful practical and theoretical perspectives of Bourdieu into feminist thinking, as well as on the feminist critical assesment of Pierre Bourdieu's theory and possible answers on it. Selected feminist views on Bourdieu's theory and on some of its concepts (e.g. habitus or disposition) and the view of Bourdieu on feminism as a critical theory and political movement will be analysed. The thesis follows primary literature written by Bourdieu, using the critical arguments of Toril Moi and Leslie McCall as two main pillars. First, the potentiality of Bourdieu's theory to address emancipation, universality and overcoming essentialist and non-essentialist positions of feminism will be discused. Second, I am focusing on the relations between gender, social order, capital and distinctive/distributive mechanism. Finally the relationship between the terms production and reproduction in Bourdieu's theory will be elaborated and some possible points to feminist critical thinking as well as to Bourdieu's theory will be made. Klíčová slova: Pierre Bourdieu, feminism, gender, habitus, capital, social order, distinction

Why We Disagree: Morality and Social Categorization

Carnes, Nathan Christopher 29 August 2014 (has links)
Recent research has identified important functional differences between Prescriptive morality (based in approach motivation) and Proscriptive morality (based in avoidance motivation). The purpose of the present research was to understand the consequences of these moralities applied at the group level for social categorization, especially in response to threat. I measured social categorization with a novel method in which participants categorized same-race and cross-race morphed faces. Social Justice (which is Prescriptive morality applied to the group) was associated with more inclusive social categorization under conditions of threat compared to a control condition. Social Order (which is Proscriptive morality applied to the group) was not associated with social categorization. The implications of this work for social categorization, politics, and our understanding of moral diversity are discussed.

Literature of utopia and dystopia. Technological influences shaping the form and content of utopian visions.

Garvey, Brian T. January 1985 (has links)
We live in an age of rapid change. The advance of science and technology, throughout history, has culminated in periods of transition when social values have had to adapt to a changed environment. Such times have proved fertile ground for the expansion of the imagination. Utopian literature offers a vast archive of information concerning the relationship between scientific and technological progress and social change. Alterations in the most basic machinery of society inspired utopian authors to write of distant and future worlds which had achieved a state of harmony and plenty. The dilemmas which writers faced were particular to their era, but there also emerged certain universal themes and questions: What is the best organisation of society? What tools would be adequate to the task? What does it mean to be human? The dividing line on these issues revolves around two opposed beliefs. Some perceived the power inherent in technology to effect the greatest improvement in the human condition. Others were convinced that the organisation of the social order must come first so as to create an environment sympathetic to perceived human needs. There are, necessarily, contradictions in such a division. They can be seen plainly in More's Utopia itself. More wanted to see new science and technique developed. But he also condemned the social consequences which inevitably flowed from the process of discovery. These consequences led More to create a utopia based on social reorganisation. In the main, the utopias of Francis Bacon, Edward Bellamy and the later H. G. Wells accepted science, while the work of William Morris, Aldous Huxley and Kurt Vonnegut rejected science in preference for a different social order. More's Utopia and Bacon's New Atlantis were written at a time when feudal, agricultural society was being transformed by new discoveries and techniques. In a later age, Bellamy's Looking Backward and Morris's News From Nowhere offer contrary responses to society at the height of the Industrial evolution. These four authors serve as a prelude to the main area of the thesis which centres on the twentieth century. Wells, though his first novel appeared in 1895, produced the vast bulk of his work in the current century. Huxley acts as an appropriate balance to Wells and also exemplifies the shift from utopia to dystopia. The last section of the thesis deals with the work of Kurt Vonnegut and includes an interview with that author. The twentieth century has seen the proliferation of dystopias, portraits of the disastrous consequences of the headlong pursuit of science and technology, unallied to human values. Huxley and Vonnegut crystallised the fears of a modern generation: that we create a soulless, mechanised, urban nightmare. The contemporary fascination with science in literature is merely an extension of a process with a long tradition and underlying theme. The advance of science and technology created the physical and intellectual environment for utopian authors which determined the form and content of their visions.

Mediated conviviality and the urban social order: reframing the regulation of public space.

Barker, Anna 10 February 2016 (has links)
yes / The regulation of public space is influenced greatly by debates about crime, disorder and (in)security. This paper challenges certain assumptions that inform a number of competing mentalities regarding the regulation of public spaces drawn from within the fields of criminology and urban studies, notably ‘preventive exclusion’, ‘reassurance policing’ and the ‘right to the city’. It harnesses inter-disciplinary insights from real world examples to re-frame and advance debates about the future regulation of public space, conceptualised in this paper as ‘mediated conviviality’. It argues that social order is not spontaneous but needs to be facilitated. This perspective simultaneously de-centres crime and (in)security as central organising concepts and recognises the importance of safety to the development of a convivial public realm, with implications for practical strategies of urban governance.

UNVEILING THE SHADOWS: A COGNITIVE APPROACH TO UNDERSTANDING SOCIAL INFLUENCE STRATEGIES FOR ESTABLISHING SOCIAL ORDER IN DARKNET MARKETS

Andrei, Filippo 15 March 2024 (has links)
Darknet markets have emerged due to technological advancements, decreasing the likelihood of violence by facilitating remote purchasing interactions. However, the absence of traditional legal frameworks makes maintaining order in these illegal online markets challenging. Without a legitimate state to enforce property rights or quality standards, sustaining order becomes increasingly complex. Despite its illicit nature and the absence of a legitimate state to protect market transactions, the darknet market has proven to be a resilient environment where user satisfaction rivals that of traditional e-commerce platforms such as eBay. How is this possible? Howcan social order emerge in such a context? Existing studies have primarily approached the issue from neo-institutionalist and social network perspectives, examining the emergence of social order through informal institutions and repeated interactions. A notable gap remains in understanding the cognitive aspects shaping decision-making processes in these illicit markets. This dissertation aims to fill this gap by examining the role of social influence in establishing the social order of the market in the absence of legal safeguards from a socio-cognitive lean.

Racism Recognized and the Reformation of the South in Ernest Gaines‘

Session, La Toya 17 December 2011 (has links)
According to Ernest Gaines‘ personal experiences as a Southerner, without addressing the history of slavery, the quest for human dignity becomes meaningless. The discourses and the ideologies of the characters in AGathering of Old Men represent a call for social change. A Gathering of Old Men is however, more than just a novel about whites dominating blacks; it is a novel about the fight for humanity in spite of the threat of a new social order. The social repercussions of slavery and the denial of black manhood are central issues in A Gathering of Old Men, but Gaines also exhibits ways in which the demand for a social change in our society can bring about racial harmony.
