Orientador: Adrián Oscar Dongo Montoya / Resumo: Este trabalho tem como principal objetivo o estudo do desenvolvimento moral e da troca simbólica junto à crianças de bairros marginalizados, ou seja, crianças que vivem na pobreza e sofrem opressão social. Por serem crianças que vivem essa condição social, sofrem relações de opressão e vivem uma "cultura do silencio" que dificulta o desenvolvimento das suas capacidades cognitivas e dos seus sentimentos morais. Deste modo, nos perguntamos: de que modo esse meio social influi no desenvolvimento moral dessas crianças, particularmente dos seus julgamentos morais? Para responder a essa questão, estudamos as relações de crianças de 7 a 12 anos com os membros que as rodeiam. A pesquisa se cumpre em uma instituição social localizada em um bairro de periferia da cidade do interior de São Paulo. Por meio de entrevistas, verificamos os julgamentos morais em função da mentira das crianças, a partir de histórias elaboradas por Piaget e levantamos as trocas simbólicas no seio familiar e institucional. No ambiente familiar, estudamos o seu cotidiano onde se produz o cumprimento de obrigações e deveres, brincadeiras, conflitos com autoridades e iguais. No ambiente institucional, estudamos o modelo de relação existente, se há a possibilidade de trocas simbólicas e reflexão sobre as atividades feitas. O referencial teórico principal foi o de Jean Piaget. Nossas conclusões apontam para uma relação entre os julgamentos morais e as trocas simbólicas. As crianças que apresentaram uma tendência de ...

For being children living under this social condition, they suffer opression relationships and abide by what they call "Culture of the Silence", making things harder for the development of their cognitive abilities and their moral feelings. Thus, we ask ourselves: in which way this social enviroment influences these children moral development, particularly their moral judgement? To answer that question, we have been studying the relationships of children from 7 to 12 years old among the members surrounding them during daily life. The survey has been acomplished in a social institution located in a suburban neighborhood of a city in the countryside of São Paulo state. Through interviews, we have verified the moral judgements in function of the children's lies, as of histories elaborated by Piaget; we were able to bring up the symbolic exchanges among the family and institutionally. In the family enviroment, we have study their daily life where the acomplishment of obligations and chores, children's play, conflicts towards authorities and equals could be seen. In the institutional enviroment, we have study the relationship model existent, if there is the possibility of symbolic exchanges and reflection about the activities that just have been done.

Cette étude porte sur le langage- en sa faculté d'expression et de communication de la pensée - des jeunes (de 17 à 20 ans) exploitants la décharge d'ordures municipale d'Andralanitra (Antananarivo). D'une part, elle s'intéresse aux motivations des choix lexicaux et linguistiques opérés par ces jeunes. Il s'agit également d'une contribution à la réalisation de l'état des lieux de la situation sociolinguistique qui prévaut à Madagascar. Notre intérêt est de déterminer la manière dont les jeunes en situation d'exclusion sociale et de pauvreté expriment leurs sentiments, leur manière de voir les choses, et surtout leurs points de vue sur leurs conditions de vie. Afin d'y parvenir, une analyse lexico-sémantique selon le genre du discours de ces jeunes est réalisée par le biais des champs conceptuels tels que le fonctionnement de la vie psychique et l'affectivité, l 'éducation, la tradition et les croyances, les liens socio-affectifs, les notions et valeurs liées à l 'environnement et l 'habitat, etc.Par ailleurs, nous nous sommes également intéressé au fonctionnement des valeurs et des représentations socioculturelles communes, qui influencent les comportements et la personnalité de ces jeunes de la décharge. Sont, entre autres, examinées la perception des jeunes de la complexité de la notion d'autorité tutélaire et du tsiny (le blâme ou la censure) dans la société malgache, et l'implication de cette dernière dans le développement personnel et l'accompagnement de ces jeunes vers l'insertion sociale et-professionnelle. Enfin, l 'opposition entre les valeurs symboliques et psycho-identiaires associées à la décharge d'ordures et celles liées au territoire-refuge, que représente la communauté, est étudiée afin d'alimenter la réflexion en vue de contribuer à la facilitation de l'élaboration des politiques d'insertion sociale et professionnelle des jeunes en situation de pauvreté extrême et d'exclusion sociale. / This research work deals with the survey of the language used by young diggers (aged from 1 7 to 20) of the public dump of Antananarivo. It aims at exarnining the motivations that induce the lexical and linguistic choices in their own description and viewpoints of the conditions in which they live. lts main interest is to determine the way this language of marginalized young people convey emotions and different kinds of sentiments concerning various issues, including education, tradition and beliefs, socio-affective links, etc. A gender­ based lexical survey is also carried out with a view to contributing to the description of the current sociolinguistic situation of Madagascar. On the other hand, a study of shared social and cultural values and representations conveyed by this langage is conducted to examine influencing factors of the young dump diggers'behaviours and personalities. For instance, sometimes the complex relationship between tutelary authority and tsiny (common waming and censorship) is viewed as a positive concept encouraging persona! development and sometimes it is thought to be the cause of , marginalized young people's behavioural inhibition or excessive caution, as regards· their wishes for self-emancipation or social and professional integration. The opposing symbolic and psycbological or socio-identitary values of the public dump and the friendly or bannonic social integration territory, that the community represents, are studied in order to bring out elues as food for thought in order to set up social and professional integration polkies in favour of marginalized young people.

Introdução: Este estudo examina o sujeito social que constitui a Cracolândia, território na área de Luz, cidade de São Paulo. Assume-se que o fenômeno da Cracolândia é parte da questão social e, portanto, não pode ser atribuída ao uso de drogas, ou ao efeito do crack. A análise dos trabalhos científicos levantados na revisão da literatura, indexados na base de dados Scopus, permitiu perceber a conformidade da maior parte da produção científica com os fundamentos da moderna saúde pública, que busca identificar os grupos vulneráveis ao consumo de crack, deixando de fora da equação a dimensão estrutural que conforma a questão social e as dimensões da produção e da circulação do crack, como uma droga ilícita. O objetivo geral é o compreender o sujeito social que constitui a Cracolândia e os objetivos específicos são: identificar a reprodução social dos indivíduos que frequentam ou que vivem na Cracolândia; analisar as trajetórias de vida desses sujeitos e levantar a presença de consumo de crack e a percepção do papel do consumo em suas vidas e nas vidas dos usuários em geral. O objetivo político é o de propor uma nova base para políticas públicas na região da Cracolândia, a partir da compreensão da realidade de quem frequenta ou vive na região. Método: Este é um estudo de caso, uma pesquisa qualitativa desenvolvida sob os fundamentos teóricos do materialismo histórico e dialético, no campo da Saúde Coletiva, que se pauta pela explicação social a respeito do fenômeno do uso de drogas. Utilizou-se entrevistas, desenvolvendo-se um instrumento de coleta de dados com duas partes: a) variáveis para a composição do Índice de Reprodução Social das famílias dos participantes e b) questões abertas sobre a trajetória de vida dos indivíduos, o lugar que a Cracolândia e o crack ocupam nessas trajetórias. O trabalho de campo foi realizado na Cracolândia, usando a técnica de bola de neve. Foram entrevistados dez participantes, nove homens e uma mulher. Resultados: Os resultados mostram que quase todos os entrevistados vieram de outros estados do Brasil, tendo imigrado por diversos motivos: ameaças à vida, para escapar de penas de prisão, perseguição política e, especialmente, para buscar melhores condições sociais. Viver na Cracolândia para todos parece ter uma dimensão de proteção forte, procurada por conta da marginalização, atributo da questão social, um processo histórico inerente às sociedades capitalistas. Assim, o grupo chegou à Cracolândia pela ausência de proteção social, processo agravado pelo modelo capitalista neoliberal. Com relação ao uso de drogas, sete relataram o uso de crack e de drogas lícitas. Conclusão: Conclui-se que a categoria central para a compreensão do sujeito social que constitui a Cracolândia é a questão social e não a questão do uso de drogas ou crack particularmente. As pessoas que frequentam ou moram na Cracolândia estão essencialmente expostas a processos de empobrecimento e marginalização resultantes da reestruturação produtiva do capitalismo e da desproteção social, que reduziu empregos formais e brutalmente expandiu o exército de reserva, que é parcialmente representado pelo grupo social que constitui a Cracolândia de São Paulo. / Introduction: This study examines the social subject (group) that constitutes the Cracolândia, territory in the Luz area, city of São Paulo. We assume that the phenomenon of the São Paulos Cracolândia is part of the social question and therefore cannot be attributed to the drug use, or to the crack itself. The scientific papers raised in the literature review indexed in the Scopus database allowed realizing their compliance with the foundations of the modern public health, which is seeking to identify vulnerable groups to the crack consumption, leaving out of the equation the structural dimension of the social problem, and the dimension of the production and circulation of the crack. The overall objective is to understand the social subject that constitutes the Cracolândia, and the specific objectives are: to identify the social reproduction of individuals staying or living in Cracolândia; to analyze the life histories of these subjects and to raise the existence of crack use and perception of the role of consumption in their lives and the lives of users in general. The political purpose is to propose a new basis for public policy in the Cracolândia region, from understanding the reality of who stays or lives in that region. Method: This is a qualitative research case study developed under the theoretical foundations of Dialectical and Historical Materialism, in the field of Collective Heath which outlines the social explanation of the phenomenon of drug use. We used the interviews and developed an instrument to collect data with two parts formed by: a) variables for composition of the Social Reproduction Index of the participants families, and b) opened questions about the life trajectory of the individuals, the place which Cracolândia and crack use occupy in these trajectories. Fieldwork was conducted in Cracolândia using the snowball technique. Ten participants were interviewed, nine men and one woman. Results: The results show that: almost all respondents came from other states of Brazil, having immigrated for different reasons: threats to life, to escape imprisonment, political persecution and especially searching for better social conditions. Living in Cracolândia for all seems to have a strong protective dimension, sought because of the marginalization, occasioned by the social question, an inherent historical process of capitalist societies. The interviewed also came to the Cracolândia for the lack of social protection, aggravated by the neoliberal capitalist model. With respect to drug use, seven reported using crack and all used licit drugs. Conclusion: we conclude that the central category for understanding the social group that constitutes Cracolândia lies in the social issue and not in the issue of drug use itself. People are primarily exposed to processes of impoverishment andmarginalization resulting from the productive restructuring of capitalism that has reduced formal jobs and mechanisms of social protection and brutally expanded the reserve army, which is partially represented by the social group that constitutes the São Paulo´s Cracolândia

Maternal mortality is a global health concern but inequalities in utilization of maternal health care are not clearly understood. Severe morbidity (near-miss) is receiving increased attention due to methodological difficulties in maternal mortality studies. The present thesis seeks to increase understanding of factors that impede utilization of emergency obstetric care (EmOC) in Bolivia and Guatemala. Studies I and IV employed qualitative interviews to explore the role of traditional birth attendants (TBAs) and the care-seeking behaviour of women who arrived at hospital with a near-miss complication. Studies II–III documented maternal mortality and near-miss morbidity at the hospital level and investigated the influence of socio-demographic factors and antenatal care (ANC) on near-miss upon arrival. The studies identified unfamiliarity with EmOC among TBAs and a lack of collaboration with formal care providers. A perception of being dissociated from the health care system and a mistrust of health care providers was common among near-miss women from disadvantaged social backgrounds. In the Bolivian setting, 187 maternal deaths per 100,000 live births and 50 cases of near-miss per 1000 were recorded. Causes of near-miss differed from those of maternal deaths. Most women with near-miss arrived at hospital in critical condition: severe preeclampsia, complications after childbirth at home and abortions were mostly encountered among them. Lack of ANC, low education, and rural residence were interactively associated with near-miss. ANC reduced socio-demographic differentials for near-miss. Complementing maternal mortality reviews with data on near-miss morbidity increases the understanding of priority needs and quality of maternal health care. Additionally, focusing on near-miss upon arrival was found useful in exploring pre-hospital barriers to EmOC. The findings identified subgroups of women who seemed especially vulnerable to pre-hospital barriers. They also underscored the need for initiatives to reduce the effect of social marginalization and to acknowledge the influential role of formal and informal care providers on the utilization of EmOC. / La mortalidad materna es un tema de inquietud global, sin embargo la comprensión de las desigualdades en la utilización de los servicios de salud materna es limitada. La morbilidad obstétrica severa (near-miss) está recibiendo creciente atención, producto de problemas metodológicos en los estudios de mortalidad materna. El objetivo de la presente tesis es aumentar la comprensión de factores que impiden la utilización de la atención obstétrica de emergencia en Bolivia y Guatemala. Los estudios I y IV usaron metodologías cualitativas en un esfuerzo por explorar el rol de las parteras tradicionales y las estrategias de las mujeres que arriban a los hospitales con una morbilidad obstétrica severa. Los estudios II–III documentaron la mortalidad materna y la morbilidad obstétrica severa en el marco hospitalario e investigaron el impacto de los factores socio-demográficos y el control prenatal en la llegada a los establecimientos de salud con complicaciones severas. Los estudios identificaron la falta de familiaridad con atención obstétrica de emergencia entre las parteras tradicionales y la falta de cooperación con los profesionales de salud formales. La sensación de estar distanciadas del sistema de salud y la desconfianza hacia los profesionales de la salud eran aspectos comunes entre las mujeres de sectores marginales con experiencias de complicaciones severas. En el contexto boliviano, 187 muertes maternas por cada 100,000 nacidos vivos y 50 casos de morbilidad obstétrica severa por cada 1000 fueron registradas. Las causas de la morbilidad obstétrica severa y las muertes maternas se distinguieron. La major parte de las mujeres con morbilidad obstétrica severa llegaron al hospital en condiciones críticas: preeclampsia severa, complicaciones después de partos domiciliarios y abortos eran causas más frecuentes en esta categoría. Combinaciones del bajo nivel de educación con la falta de controles prenatales o la residencia en zonas rurales fueron asociadas con la morbilidad obstétrica severa. El control prenatal redujo diferencias socio-demográficas en lo concerniente a la morbilidad obstétrica severa. La complementación de estudios de mortalidad materna con datos sobre morbilidad obstétrica severa aumenta la comprensión de las prioridades y de la calidad en la atención de la salud materna. Además, centrándose en la morbilidad obstétrica severa a la llegada al establicimiento de salud, ha sido útil para investigar las barreras pre-hospitalarias en relación a la atención de emergencia obstétrica. Los resultados permiten identificar categorías específicas de mujeres que parecen ser especialmente vulnerables a las barreras pre-hospitalarias. Los resultados, también subrayan la necesidad de iniciativas que reduzcan los efectos de la marginalización social, y que reconozcan el importante rol que tanto el personal de salud formal como informal cumplen en la utilización de los servicios de atención obstétrica de emergencia.

Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior / Os meninos de rua apontam para uma complexa trama de exclusão social a que estão submetidos milhares de crianças e de adolescentes. Uma realidade que, perpassada e constituída por fatores sociais, econômicos, políticos, culturais e históricos, tendem a ocultar o que há de singular na história, no sofrimento, nas dinâmicas familiares, nas trajetórias de sujeitos que, face aos conflitos vivenciados e ao lugar de dejeto que ocupam no meio social, adotam a mesma saída para poderem existir (CAMPOLINA, 2001): a rua. Crianças e adolescentes, portanto, relegados a um lugar que lhes revela a faceta mais crua e real da exclusão, do abandono, da miséria, da violência que tende a ser reproduzida na circulação pelos vários espaços a casa, a rua, as instituições em busca de um lugar possível de endereçamento que os inscreva enquanto sujeitos. Nesse sentido é que esta pesquisa foi desenvolvida, a partir da experiência numa instituição que atende crianças e adolescentes em situação de rua. Vinculada ao projeto de pesquisa de Frej (2007), intitulado Limites, fronteiras e endereçamentos entre mãe e criança, este estudo teve como objetivo compreender a demanda endereçada por crianças e adolescentes em situação de rua à instituição. As contínuas transgressões, a destrutividade na relação com a instituição, além de expressões como Vê se me desimbaça, Você é uma cata-lixo, fazem supor manifestações de apelo, demandas endereçadas à instituição. A teoria psicanalítica, sobretudo as formulações de Freud e Lacan, bem como de Bergès e Balbo, trouxe contribuições importantes no que concerne à demanda, ao apelo, ao endereçamento, ao jogo de posições entre o sujeito e o Outro. A pesquisa utilizou-se de dados colhidos nos registros da instituição para contextualizar o público e apontar especificidades do atendimento. Além disso, apresentou três casos clínicos, com o objetivo de, no percurso dos adolescentes na instituição, articular questões concernentes à demanda por eles endereçada. A partir das discussões feitas, apontamos a instituição como um lugar de endereçamento (tesouro de significantes) que, ao fazer a hipótese de um apelo nos gritos de socorro de crianças e adolescentes em situação de rua, constitui-se enquanto lugar que acolhe, interdita, nomeia, delimita e simboliza para além do real da rua. Um lugar que, ao inscrever o sujeito no campo da palavra portanto, numa outra posição , institui a aposta e a possibilidade de, no apelo Vê se me desimbaça, entrever a construção e o endereçamento de demandas à instituição / The street boys are related to a complex reality of social exclusion to which thousands of children and adolescents are submited. This reality, perpassed and constitued by social, economicals, politics, cultural and historical factors, has a tendency to occult what exists as singular in the history, in the suffering, in the families dynamics, in the lives of subjects that, in front of experienced conflicts and also considering the role of dejection in the social context, adopt the same exit in order to the existence be possible (CAMPOLINA, 2001): the street. Children and adolescents, thus, left in a way that reveal to them the most rude and real face of the exclusion, of the abandonment, of the poverty, of the violence which has a tendency to reproduce in the circulation among different spaces the house in the street, the institutions but also trying to find a possible way of addressing that recognize them as subjects. If this search always exists, or if they are searching. This research was developed in this way, based in an experience at one institution that takes care of children and adolescents in streets situation. Vinculated to the research project of Frej (2007), Limits, barriers and addressment among mother and child, this research had as objective understand the demand addressed by children and adolescents in streets situation to the institution. The continuous transgression, the destructiveness in the relationship with the institution, furthermore, the expressions as Make me blurred anymore, You are a search-trash, make possible suppositions about appeal, demands addressed to the institution. The psychoanalitic theory, fundamentally the formulations of Freud and Lacan, as well as Bergès e Balbo, brought important constributions to understand the demand, the appeal, the addressment, the play of positions between the subject and the Other. The research analysed data from the registers of the institution with the major purpose to contextualize the public and consider especificities in the attendance. Moreover, discussed three clinical cases, with the objective to, in the passage of the adolescents in the institution, articulate questions concernents to the demand that they have addressed. From the discussions made, we suggested that the institution as a space of addressment (treasure of significants) which, making a hypotheses of an appeal to the shouts of help of children and adolescents in streets situation, constitue itself as a place that receive, interdict, nominate, delimitate, and symbolize beyond of the real of the street. A place that when register the subject in the language domain thus, in another position -, institute the bet and the possibility that, in the appeal Make me blurred anymore see indistinctly the building and the addressment of demands to the institution.

Previous literature, although helpful in demonstrating the insidious nature and effects of Islamophobia on Muslims, does not underscore the varying forms and intensities of Islamophobia that a diverse range of Muslims in the West face and the powerful ways in which race and socio-economic class factor into their experiences, coping mechanisms, and stigma responses. This dissertation contributes to the literature on Muslims in The West in three ways: (1) offering a qualitative approach to understanding the ways in which Islamophobia is perpetuated through media discourse and coinciding political legislation, and is experienced differently by a diverse range of Muslims in Canada, (2) adding the concepts of spiritual marginalization, spiritual homelessness, and social status optimization to the analytic vocabulary on integration and articulating their relationship with identity, and (3) making a connection between race and social class and the response to Islamophobia and articulating their relationship with human agency. In chapter one, I provide an in-depth literature review on Islamophobia in the West. In chapter two, I present the results of a discourse analysis study that highlights the structural dimensions of Islamophobia through media representations and framing of incidences involving Muslim vs. non-Muslim perpetrators of violence. In chapter three, I present the results of a study that showcases group level experiences of racism amongst a relatively powerless group of Muslim refugee youth in Hamilton Ontario and St. John’s Newfoundland and Labrador. In chapter four, I provide a contrasting response to stigma by reporting on the experiences and mobilization of a socioeconomically privileged group of first, second and third generation Muslims in Edmonton. Finally, I summarize the conceptual findings of each paper, review and discuss the general theoretical and conceptual contributions of the dissertation to existing literature, and provide suggestions on future directions for studying Islamophobia and Muslim integration in The West. / Dissertation / Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) / This dissertation analyses the varying forms and intensities of Islamophobia that a diverse range of Muslims in Canada face and the powerful ways in which race and socio-economic class factor into their experiences, coping mechanisms, and stigma responses. The thesis explores three themes: 1) how Islamophobia may be structurally maintained and propagated through media discourse and coinciding political legislation, 2) how Islamophobia and anti-Muslim hate is experienced differently by different groups of Muslims in Canada, and (3) how there may be a connection between race and social class in individual responses to Islamophobia. By adding the concepts of spiritual marginalization, spiritual homelessness, and social status optimization to the analytic vocabulary, this work is a unique contribution to existing literature, and to our understanding of the differing lived experiences of being Muslim in the West and the varying ways in which Islamophobia informs the day to day lives of Muslim Canadians.

L’Église de Jésus-Christ des Saints des Derniers Jours, ou « Église mormone », émargea au cours de la première moitié du XIXe siècle dans une Amérique en proie à des mutations sociales et religieuses. Joseph Smith, son prophète-fondateur, l’inscrivit dès le départ dans une radicalité doctrinale en « protestant » les fondamentaux du christianisme tels qu’ils avaient été définis et acceptés auparavant. Il s’attira de ce fait le courroux des « Églises établies », en particulier de celles du protestantisme évangélique. Malgré une américanité foncière, sa religion fut affublée de l’étiquette « un-american » et ses disciples furent persécutés, poussés à édifier leur « Sion » sur la « Frontière », puis dans l’Ouest, à la périphérie de la société américaine. Contrairement à bien d’autres groupes religieux ou de mouvements utopiques, les « mormons » réussirent à transformer leur marginalisation en force, développant par la même occasion des particularismes qui firent d’eux un « peuple à part ». Or, ils s’éveillèrent aussi à l’évidence que pour échapper aux persécutions, ils devaient se positionner au cœur de l’action politique du pays. L’investiture de Mitt Romney par le Parti républicain pour l’élection présidentielle de 2012 témoigne de leur réussite. Mais comment cela fut-il possible ? Romney fut aussi l’objet d’une formidable opposition religieuse au cours de la phase des primaires du Parti qui n’est pas sans rappeler celles fomentées par les protestants contre les catholiques Al Smith (1928) et John F. Kennedy (1960). Comment expliquer ce refus de voir un mormon à la Maison blanche ? Nous répondons dans cette thèse à ces questions, et à bien d’autres, notamment en illustrant le fait que Romney, J. F. Kennedy et Al Smith eurent un prédécesseur en Reed Smoot, apôtre mormon dont l’élection en 1902 au Sénat fédéral fut à l’origine du plus grand procès politico-religieux d’Amérique. / The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, or “Mormon Church,” emerged during the first half of the 19th century while America was undergoing social and religious changes. Right from the outset, Joseph Smith, the prophet-founder, set the Church in a radical opposition, “protesting” the dogma of traditional Christianity as they had been defined and accepted for centuries. He attracted the ire of the “established Churches” of Evangelical Protestantism. In spite of the profound Americanness of his religion, it was labeled un-american and his followers were persecuted, driven out, and forced to build their “Zion” on the Frontier, and then in the West, on the margins of American society. Unlike several other religious groups and utopian movements, the “Mormons” managed to turn their marginalization into strength, developing thereby traits that made them “a peculiar people.” Yet, they also realized that to escape persecutions, they had to be at the center of the nation’s politics. The nomination of Mitt Romney by the Republican Party for the 2012 presidential election testifies to their success. How did that come about? Romney was also the object of a sturdy religious opposition during the Party’s primaries that reminded the ones set up by the Protestants in the cases of Al Smith (1928) and of John F. Kennedy (1960). How does one account for this refusal to see a Mormon in the White House? In this dissertation, we answer these questions, and to many more, particularly as we illustrate the fact that Romney, J. F. Kennedy and Al Smith had a predecessor in Reed Smoot, a Mormon apostle whose election in 1902 to the U.S. Senate set the tone for the greatest religiously and politically-motivated trial ever in American history.
