Esses são os verbos mais importantes a compor as páginas dessa dissertação cujo fazer teceu-se sobre cartas de baralho, trapézios e narizes vermelhos. As linguagens circenses são espaços de (des)construção cuja multiplicidade nos levou a pensa-las a partir dos palhaços Major Palito e Allan, do mágico Alisson de Souza e dos acrobatas Tito e Alicate. Nessa perspectiva, traçamos caminhos para pesquisar de que forma essas artes circenses são vivenciadas na cidade de Campina Grande como práticas de arte e sociabilidade. Tomamos o tempo presente como referência, mas se tratando de um trabalho de história nos reportamos ao passado diversas vezes a fim de encontrar continuidades e rupturas que pudessem responder as diversas problemáticas apresentadas ao longo desta escrita por meio de um movimento incessante e por vezes inesperado (como os movimentos de um acrobata na perspectiva do público) que sem nenhuma pretensão teleológica nos conduziu a outros caminhos, o que ocorreu principalmente pelo trabalho com a metodologia qualitativa representada na história oral, que brinca com o pesquisador ao direcioná-lo pelas imprevisibilidades e subjetividades do entrevistado. Assim, acrescentamos as discussões circenses e historiográficas outras formas de pensar e representar o universo do circo para além das lonas e do picadeiro intrinsecamente relacionadas às suas práticas e consumos dando a ver a cidade de Campina Grande a partir de gargalhadas, riscos e ilusões que nos apresentaram as suas mais variadas faces ao provocar no público sentimentos de medo, alegria, evasão, maravilhamento, irritação, susto, curiosidade, compondo um colorido e subjetivo espetáculo. / To evade, to back flip, to imagine, to laugh, to fear. These are the most important verbs to compose the pages of this dissertation which was nurtured by playing cards, with trapezes and red noses. The circus languages are spaces of (de)construction whose multiplicity led us to think about it from the clowns ―Major Palito‖ and ―Allan‖, the magician ―Alisson Souza‖ and the acrobats ―Tito‖ and ―Alicate‖. With this perspective, we drew pathways to research how these circus arts are experienced in the city of Campina Grande as way of art and sociability. We took this present time as reference, but as this is about history assignment, we report to the past several times in order to find continuities and ruptures that could answer the various questions presented throughout this written essay, by an unceasing movement and at times unexpected (as the movements of an acrobat in the public's perspective) that without any theological intention has led us to other paths, which mostly occurred by this assignment and qualitative methodology presented in oral history, that plays with the researcher as it directs him by unpredictability and subjectivities of the interviewee. Therefore, we have added to the circus and historiographical discussions other ways of thinking and representing the circus universe beyond the canvas and the ring, intrinsically related to its practices and consumptions, presenting the city of Campina Grande through the different faces of laughter, risks and illusions in order to waken in the public feelings of fear, joy, escape, wonder, anger, fright, curiosity, composing a colorful and subjective spectacle.

O crack é a substância ilícita que mais leva à busca por tratamento para uso de substâncias no Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS). Os usuários frequentemente relatam dificuldades nos seus relacionamentos interpessoais, no entanto ter relacionamentos saudáveis é crucial para o processo de recuperação. As evidências até agora demonstram que além do uso de substâncias psicoativas, outros fatores da vida do sujeito, como características sociodemográficas, dificuldades emocionais, comportamentais e sociais podem se tornar barreiras para o resgate e cultivo de relacionamentos saudáveis. Sendo assim, a presente dissertação teve por objetivo investigar a associação entre severidade dos problemas no funcionamento interpessoal dos usuários de crack e fatores de risco associados, tais como características sociodemográficas, fatores relacionados ao uso de substâncias do paciente, de seus parceiros, familiares e amigos e comorbidades psiquiátricas. Este foi um estudo transversal multicêntrico, com a participação de homens e mulheres (N=407), em tratamento para problemas por uso de crack, na rede de saúde pública de seis capitais brasileiras. A magnitude de associação entre o desfecho (T-score: problemas na área Família/Social) e os fatores em estudo (características sociodemográficas, comorbidades psiquiátricas, exposição a eventos estressores na vida, uso recente de substâncias psicoativas, dados sobre o consumo de substâncias pelos usuários, seu parceiro, familiares adultos e amigos e envolvimento com atividades ilícitas) foi avaliada através da razão de prevalência (RP), estimada pela regressão de Poisson com variância robusta. Ter diagnóstico de abuso de álcool, transtorno de estresse pós-traumático, transtorno da personalidade antissocial, episódio depressivo atual e o número de dias consumindo crack no último mês estava significativamente associado com maior severidade nos problemas na área Família/Social. Os achados deste estudo demonstram uma relação entre maior frequência de uso de crack e co-morbidades psiquiátricas com ter mais problemas nos relacionamentos com parceiros, familiares e amigos. Sendo a reinserção social, uma conquista fundamental para a recuperação, nossos achados apontam que, além do uso de crack em si, outros elementos podem representar barreiras para o bom funcionamento social destas pessoas. Estes resultados advogam em favor do desenvolvimento de intervenções psicossociais que foquem na melhora do funcionamento interpessoal de usuários de crack e a inclusão de familiares e amigos nas abordagens terapêuticas. Além disso, sugere-se o oferecimento de tratamento concomitante para as comorbidades psiquiátricas. / Crack-cocaine is the illicit psychoactive substance that most leads to substance use treatment seeking in the Unified Health System (SUS). Users frequently report difficulties in interpersonal relationships, yet having healthy relationships is crucial to the process of recovery. Evidence so far demonstrate that in addition to psychoactive substance use, other factors in the user’s life, such as sociodemographic characteristics, emotional, behavioral, and social problems, may become barriers to the rescue and cultivation of healthy relationships. Thus, the present dissertation aimed to investigate the association between severity of problems in interpersonal functioning of crack-cocaine users and related risk factors such as sociodemographic characteristics, consumption of psychoactive substances by users, partners, adult relatives and friends, and psychiatric comorbidities. This was a multicenter cross-sectional study, involving men and women (N = 407), undergoing treatment for their crack-cocaine use in public health facilities of six Brazilian capitals. The magnitude of association between the outcome (T-score: problems in the Family/Social area) and factors under study (sociodemographic characteristics, psychiatric comorbidities, exposure to lifetime stressful events, data regarding the use of psychoactive substances by users, their partner, adult relatives and friends and engagement in illicit activities) was evaluated by the prevalence ratio (PR), estimated by Poisson regression with robust variance. Having a comorbid diagnosis of alcohol abuse, posttraumatic stress disorder, antisocial personality disorder, current depressive episode and the number of days of crack use in the last month was significantly associated with greater severity in the problems in the Family/Social area. These findings demonstrate a relationship between higher frequency of use of crack cocaine and psychiatric comorbidities with more problems in relationships with partners, family and friends. Since social reintegration is a fundamental achievement for recovery, our findings indicate that, besides the use of crack itself, other elements may represent barriers to the social functioning of these people. These results support development of psychosocial interventions that focus in the improvement of interpersonal relationships of crack cocaine users and the inclusion of family and friends in the treatment. In addition, it is suggested that interventions should target concomitant treatment for psychiatric comorbidities.

The development of the productive forces originated by the increase of the human capacity on its action in the nature, exhausts with the time, the relations of production that structure a society, appearing then, new social structures. The capitalist productive system remains persistent, due to the establishment of forms of obstruction to the generic human patrimony organized by bourgeois society, although it is one of the forms of organization possible and fleeting. These forms take root in the work and are spread by all the human relations. The overcoming of this scenario is conceived as a slow and long process, but an ontology for an emancipatory education is already reality. / Em qualquer fase de desenvolvimento da história, as relações sociais entre os homens são marcadas pela organização e divisão do trabalho, fato que culmina com a produção que se materializa em determinada sociedade, que sustenta as trocas e, por fim, a vida de relações. O desenvolvimento das forças produtivas, originado pelo aumento da capacidade humana sobre a sua atuação na natureza, esgota-se com o tempo. Desse modo, surgem então novas estruturas sociais nas relações de produção da sociedade. Isso porque o sistema produtivo capitalista se mantém persistente, devido ao estabelecimento de formas de obstacularização ao patrimônio genérico humano organizadas pela sociedade burguesa, apesar de ser uma das formas de organização possível e passageira. Essas formas se enraízam no trabalho e se difundem por todas as relações humanas. A superação desse cenário é concebida, pois, como um processo lento e longo, mas uma ontologia para uma educação emancipatória já é realidade.

In times where acts of extremism are becoming increasingly evident an interest for the individuals who perform such acts has begun to take shape. Most people who engage in extreme organizations tend to eventually leave them, yet there is still uncertainty about why and how people manage to do so. The purpose of this study was to add to the understanding of defection processes from the White Power movement by studying how emotions and relationships contribute to such processes. Using Herbert Blumer's symbolic interactionism as my springboard, and through interviews with nine former White Power activists, the study shows that leaving a White Power organization is divided into a differentiation between why and how activists leave. While disillusionment, guilt and fear tend to be reasons why activists eventually want to leave it is through their interaction with people in the outside community, for instance their children or a police officer, they manage to leave. Meeting with people with immigrant backgrounds was also crucial for the process of leaving the White Power movement, for seven of the respondents such meetings contributed to their deradicalization processes.

Primate societies have been classified into discrete categories based on the flexibility of their social organisation. However, due to growing evidence of intra-specific and temporal variation in grouping patterns, it has been suggested that instead, primate societies should be characterised by their relative degree of fission-fusion dynamics, which indicates the extent to which groups vary in spatial cohesion and the temporal variation in the size and composition of parties. While perceived predation risk and food availability are known to be key factors shaping primate societies, it is not clear if fission-fusion dynamics reflect short-term behavioural adaptations to these factors, and if social preferences also influence fission-fusion dynamics. Furthermore, little is known about the impact of fission-fusion dynamics on social relationships. These issues are addressed in this thesis by investigating the grouping patterns and social relationships of two troops (Gamgam and Kwano) of free-ranging olive baboons (Papio& hamadryas & anubis) in Gashaka-Gumti National Park, Nigeria. Grouping patterns were measured through association networks and the temporal variation in party size, party composition, and spatial cohesion, and were related to variations in food availability, predation risk, and habitat use. Variations in patterns of associations and fission-fusion dynamics were found both between troops, and between seasons within troops. As these variations could largely be accounted for by differences in ecology and demography, it seems that fission-fusion dynamics reflect a short-term optimisation of the trade-off between the cost and benefits of group living. The network of associations of the fluid Kwano troop, but not of the cohesive Gamgam troop, was found to be sub-structured in a way that indicates Infanticide avoidance may play an important role in association patterns. Both the frequencies of social behaviours, and the structures of networks based on five types of social interactions, were related to differences in fission-fusion dynamics. The degree of fission-fusion dynamics appears to influence social relationships, as a quantitative difference in social behaviour was linked to variation in fission-fusion dynamics.

En Région Bretagne, les Britanniques forment la plus importante population étrangère comptant au recensement 2010 près de 14 000 personnes. Depuis la fin des années 1980, cette population qui s’installe prioritairement dans les milieux ruraux de la Bretagne intérieure est une illustration exemplaire des nouvelles « mobilités privilégiées », ou lifestyle migration, en provenance des pays du « Nord ». Ces vagues migratoires peuvent ainsi amener à une reconfiguration du tissu économique et socioculturel de ces zones faisant face à un déficit migratoire. La recherche proposée ici s’attache à étudier l’accueil et la socialisation de ces migrant!e!s par l’analyse des pratiques interactionnelles et discursives, et à interroger les problématiques sociolangagières auxquelles les migrant!e!s anglophones et les autochtones sontconfronté!e!s. Se basant sur un travail de terrain combinant observations, entretiens semi-directifs et forums de discussions, ces analyses critiques s’articulent à la prise en compte des conditions sociologiques, politiques et économiques de cette migration. Les catégories d’assignations identitaires, les idéologies langagières et les stratégies interactionnelles mobilisées par les migrants britanniques et les autochtones semblent alors faire apparaître des logiques paradoxales du capitalisme contemporain : d’un côté la hiérarchisation des mobilités et les stratégies de mise en marché du territoire montrent les privilèges des populations britanniques; de l’autre la responsabilisation des migrant!e!s face à leurs choix de migrer et la flexibilisation des parcours de vie peut mener à leur précarisation économique et à un certain isolement social. / In Brittany (France), the British account for the largest foreign population, with an estimated 14 000 individuals according to the 2010 census. Since the end of the 1980s, this population relocates primarily in rural areas of central Brittany and illustrates the new “privileged mobilities”, or “lifestyle migration”, coming from the « North ». In these areas facing an important migration deficit, the British migration may have an impact on the local economic and sociocultural environment. This research aims at studying the reception and the socialization of these migrants through the analysis of interactional and discursive practices, and at questioning the sociolinguistics issues these Anglophones migrants and the autochthonpopulation are confronted with. Based on a fieldwork combining observations, semi-directed interviews and a collection of discussion forum threads, these critical analyses are articulated to the sociological, political and economic background of the migration. The identities and social categories, the linguistic ideologies and the interactional strategies that the migrants and the autochthons mobilise thus seem to expose some paradoxical logics of contemporary capitalism: on the one hand the hierarchisation of mobilities and the marketing of the territory reveal the privileges of the British population; on the other hand the responsabilisation of the migrants with respect to their migratory process and the flexibilisation of the course of life can lead to socioeconomic insecurity and social isolation

In the last decade there has been a substantial increase of new migrants into large cities in Việt Nam, changing the social, cultural, and political fabric of Hồ Chí Minh City. Rapid urbanization and land use changes in Hồ Chí Minh City have occurred alongside mass internal migration. The movement of people has become an important piece in the 1986 economic reforms of đổi mới and a main focus of Vietnamese public policy from the late 1990s until today. With the influx of new actors comes a new set of social interactions and negotiations between people in daily life that are embedded within a broader socio-economic framework. New liberal policies on internal migration have spurred great mass internal migration into cities which has several implications for not only the entire country, but specific to this research, for the social dynamics of how Bình Trị Ðông ward is managing the influx of migrants. Not only did this field research seek to explore the social relationships and integration among migrants living on the urban fringe but the issue of local governance and infrastructure provisions in the form of migrant housing is central to this research. In short, this thesis asks: what are the social experiences of migrants living in Bình Trị Ðông? What is the role of local government, if any, in managing the social and cultural changes among migrants? My research finds that migrants are each striving towards their own individual goals of economic gains, treating Bình Trị Ðông as a temporary living space, thus preventing a strong sense of community and social bonds from flourishing. Meanwhile, more equitable planning policies of prioritizing the needs of ordinary citizens over economic development signal a shift in local development policies. Yet the government’s shift towards greater participation has not necessarily changed the lived experiences of residents. Migrants here are oriented towards their own goals thus stunting interpersonal relationships and deepening social segregation, leading one to question what ties, if any, unite people in this neighborhood. / Arts, Faculty of / Asian Research, Institute of / Graduate

This thesis examines the social context of stillbirth and its impact on women's life and on their relationships with their family members. The study sample includes 8 adult women from Israel. Israel is a country characterized by a high number of children in families and the centrality of religion in society. The methodology used in this study was semi-structured interviews. Our results were similar to those of previous studies in terms of the partner's attitude to the event. On the other hand, the results included novel findings regarding other family members' coping with the stillbirth event. Solidarity and other types of empathy were found to be relevant according to women's stories; whereas some filial norms were met with more ambivalent responses. This thesis demonstrates the importance of intergenerational solidarity, the mass influence of cultural context and ambivalence within everyday situations and the meaning of empathy from close family members. Particular attention needs to be paid to the intergenerational perspective, which focuses on the family (couple, divorced or single units) or the wider society in which they live. Moreover, the experience of particular social groups further exploration; for instance, single mothers and surrogates.

During adolescence, the need for social connection increases. Yet, fostering emotional closeness in relationships becomes more complex, as the need for autonomy also increases and social environments must adapt to become conducive to these seemingly competing needs. This complexity necessitates more research on what happens to close relationships during adolescence, so parents, scholars, and practitioners are better equipped to help individuals navigate the unique social atmosphere of adolescence. The current study draws upon multi-level modeling techniques to estimate growth models of Australian adolescents' closeness to parents and closeness to friends from ages 12-17 and examine predictors of these trajectories. Findings reveal that on average, adolescents' levels of closeness to parents exhibit a moderate decrease while remaining relatively high, and boys appear to have a closer relationship with their parents than girls throughout the period examined. Levels of closeness to friends similarly decline while remaining relatively high, with girls exhibiting both greater levels of closeness and a faster decrease than boys throughout the timeframe examined. These results are discussed in light of the current literature and recommendations for future studies are provided.

Med anledning av dagens utvecklade kommunikationsteknik har stora förändringar skett i arbetslivet. Det flexibla arbetet är ett fenomen som förändrat arbetslivet och som innebär att medarbetare i större utsträckning kan kontrollera var och när arbetet utförs. Forskning visar att flexibelt arbete tenderar etableras mer kontinuerligt i arbetslivet vilket kommer påverka de sociala relationerna och därmed också experimentera medarbetares hälsa och lärande. Syftet med studien var därför att belysa hur medarbetare på olika organisatoriska nivåer uppfattar att sociala relationer påverkar deras hälsa och lärande på arbetsplatsen. Studien har tagit ett teoretiskt avstamp i hälsoteorin KASAM och Världshälsoorganisationens modell “Healthy workplace” samt den pedagogiska teorin sociokulturellt lärande. För att svara på syftet har tio intervjuer genomförts med medarbetare på ett aktivt företag i byggbranschen. Den insamlade datan analyserades genom en kvalitativ innehållsanalys som resulterade i två kategorier innehållande sammanlagt nio underkategorier. Resultatet visade att sociala relationer i arbetslivet har en direkt påverkan på medarbetares hälsa och lärande. Sociala relationer i arbetet visade sig bland annat generera ökad trivsel, arbetsglädje och meningsfullhet och på så sätt påverka medarbetarnas hälsa. Vidare beskrevs vikten av dialog och diskussion för att kunna utveckla lärandet. Resultatet går i linje med mycket av den tidigare forskning som finns på ämnet och en slutsats som dragits är att sociala relationer i arbetet är en avgörande faktor för medarbetares hälsa och lärande. Då flexibelt arbete visat sig hämma de sociala relationerna går det också att dra slutsatsen att tillväxten av fenomenet tenderar påverka medarbetare negativt ur ett hälso- och lärandeperspektiv. / Due to today's advanced communications technology, major changes have taken place at work. Flexible working is a phenomenon that means that employees can to a greater extent control where and when the work is performed. Research shows that flexible working is increasing which will influence social relationships at work and in turn the effects on employees' health and learning. The aim of the study was to illustrate how employees at different organizational levels perceive that social relationships affect their health and learning in the workplace. The theoretical approach for this study is grounded in the health theory KASAM, the model of the World Health Organization “Healthy workplace” and the pedagogical theory of sociocultural learning. Ten employees were interviewed within the construction industry. The collected data was analyzed through a qualitative content analysis. The result showed that social relationships in working life have a direct impact on employees' health and learning. Social relationships at work were found to generate greater job satisfaction, well-being and meaningfulness and thus affect employees' health. Furthermore, the importance of dialogue and discussion was described in order to develop learning. The result is in line with much of the previous research on the subject and one conclusion is that social relationships at work are a decisive factor for employee health and learning. Since flexible work has proven to inhibit social relationships, it can also be determined that the growth of the phenomenon tends to negatively affect employees’ health and learning.
