Caravana Farkas é o um conjunto de 20 documentários produzidos por Thomas Farkas entre 1964 e 1969. Este trabalho analisa verticalmente três destes filmes - Viva Cariri! (1970), de Geraldo Sarno; De Raízes e Rezas, entre outros (1972), de Sergio Muniz e Frei Damião: Trombeta dos Aflitos, Martelo dos Hereges (1970), de Paulo Gil Soares -, buscando situá-los em relação à tradição documentária brasileira que os antecedem e ao documentário brasileiro da década de 70. As análises partem de sugestões imanentes aos filmes, em detrimento do contexto de produção; têm como foco as relações entre som e imagem internas aos filmes; e se apóiam em ferramentas teóricas ligadas especificamente ao filme documentário, como a categoria de voz do texto e os variados modos documentários. A partir do trabalho de análise, esse corpus pode ser caracterizado como de transição. Apesar de estarem ainda ligados às raízes do documentário expositivo brasileiro de cunho sociológico e ao paradigma da voz do dono, os filmes apontam para procedimentos que se tornarão mais comuns na produção brasileira posterior, na qual a busca da voz do outro ganha consistência. / Caravana Farkas is a selection of 20 documentaries produced by Thomas Farkas between the years of 1964 and 1969. This dissertation vertically analyzes three of said films Viva Cariri! (1970), by Geraldo Sarno; De Raízes e Rezas, entre outros (1972), by Sergio Muniz, and Frei Damião: Trombeta dos Aflitos, Martelo dos Hereges (1970), by Paulo Gil Soares , seeking to situate them in relation to the Brazilian documentary tradition that preceded them and the Brazilian documentaries of the 70s. These analyses stem from suggestions that are inherent to the film, in detriment to the context of the production. They also focus on relations between sound and image within the films, and they rely on theoretical tools linked specifically to documentary films, as a category of textual voice and a variety of documentary modalities. From such analyses, this corpus can be characterized as transition. Despite still being linked to the roots of Brazilian expository documentaries of a sociological nature, and to the paradigm the voice of the owner, the films paved the way to procedures that will become the most common within the following Brazilian production, in which the search for the voice of the other gains ground.

À l’intersection d’une sociologie des professions et d’une sociologie des œuvres, la thèse se propose de mettre au jour la manière particulière d’Émile Zola de théoriser et mettre en pratique la création littéraire. Le premier moment de ce travail démontre l’intérêt méthodologique d’une analyse de la singularité individuelle et définit le cadre théorique d’une appréhension des créations littéraires soucieuse de saisir dans l’espace littéraire et en amont dans la vie de l’auteur les éléments nécessaires à la compréhension des créations. La seconde partie de ce travail est consacrée à l’analyse des principes structurants des socialisations familiale, amicale et scolaire, puis professionnelle de Zola, qui permettent de rendre raison du besoin d’écrire qui précède et accompagne son immersion dans le jeu littéraire. La troisième partie de ce travail se propose de rendre raison des modes concrets d’engagement de l’écrivain dans l’espace littéraire. Cela suppose de s’intéresser à la manière dont celui-Ci mène sa carrière littéraire. Entrepreneur des lettres et de sa carrière littéraire, ne négligeant aucun terrain d’investissement susceptible de lui procurer un profit matériel, le romancier est pour autant engagé dans une lutte pour la reconnaissance de ses pairs. La quatrième partie examine la façon dont les événements biographiques se donnent à lire, sous des versions retravaillées et transformées, dans les fictions. Nous étudions les thématiques récurrentes dans l’œuvre de fiction, les types de mise en scène, les propriétés des personnages en nous efforçant de mettre en évidence la façon dont ils peuvent exprimer certaines expériences sociales particulières du romancier. / Midway sociology of professions and sociology of art, the thesis aims at uncover the particular way in which Emile Zola theorize and practice literature. The first moment of this work demonstrate the methodological interest of an analysis of individual specificity and defines the theoretical framework of an analysis of literary creations whose purpose is to look at events that have mattered to the author in order to understand his creations. The second part is devoted to the analysis of the structural principles of familial, friendly, educational and professional socialization of Zola that explain his need to write and which precedes and accompanies his immersion in the literary field. The third part of this work intends to describe the concrete mode of commitments in the literary field. That implies taking into account the way he manages his career. Looking for profits, including every activity likely to generate money, Zola is at the same time deeply invested in a struggle for recognition of legitimacy with its peers. The fourth part brings together the structuring features of Zola’s biography and the analysis of the schemes that structure his novels. We study the recurring themes of Zola’s novels, the different types of staging, the social properties of characters by striving to put into relief the way these figures express social experience of the writer.

Située à l’articulation de la sociologie de l’économie, de l’histoire de la finance et de la sociologie de la connaissance, cette thèse présente donc une analyse du rôle de la notation du crédit dans la régulation financière, et plus largement, du rôle de l’incertitude et de l’incomplétude juridiques sur les anticipations économiques des acteurs financiers. Le cadre d’analyse de la recherche se résume en quatre points : Premièrement, la thèse rompt avec une lecture strictement intellectualiste de l’action publique et présente une approche de la régulation financière par ses instruments, empruntant ainsi l’approche pragmatiste développée par les social studies of finance et par la nouvelle sociologie économique d’inspiration américaine. Deuxièmement, l’hypothèse centrale de la recherche est que les instruments réglementaires sont à la fois des techniques de connaissance et des outils juridiques. Aussi, ce sont les frictions qu’occasionnent les deux activités parfois contradictoires de calculer et de gouverner qui donnent au changement réglementaire sa dynamique historique. Troisièmement, prenant l’exemple de l’usage de la notation dans la supervision financière comme dispositif de calcul et technique de gouvernement, la thèse propose une histoire de longue durée (1865-2010) de l’activité réglementaire sur les marchés financiers aux Etats-Unis et en Europe au travers de cinq régimes de régulation (régime statutaire, d’appel, disciplinaire, fictionnel et contractuel). Quatrièmement, l’originalité de la recherche est de combiner une approche macroscopique du changement réglementaire avec une approche méticuleuse de plusieurs courtes séquences historiques durant lesquelles d’importantes innovations réglementaires ont vu le jour, notamment le New Deal aux Etats-Unis et la crise de la dette souveraine en Europe. Ainsi, en plus de définir les contours de cinq régimes réglementaires, la thèse analyse la façon dont les régulateurs se sont saisis de la notation financière comme « mécanisme d’embrayage » afin d’opérationnaliser la transition d’un régime à un autre. / Located at the intersection of economic sociology, financial history, and the sociology of knowledge, this dissertation examines the role of credit ratings in financial regulation, and more broadly, the role of financial uncertainties and legal incompleteness on financial actors’ anticipatory decisions. The framework set forth in this study can be summarized as follows. First, this study breaks with an intellectualist approach of public action to analyze financial regulation from the perspective of its instruments. As such, this research draws on a pragmatist agenda developed in social studies of finance and recent work in economic sociology. Second, the main hypothesis of this dissertation is to approach regulatory instruments as technologies of knowing and tools of government. From this double viewpoint, I hypothesize that the frictions generated by the two competing activities of calculating and governing impart the regulatory activity with both its structural features and historical dynamics. Third, using the example of regulatory reliance on ratings, I propose a longue durée historical analysis (1865-2010) of the regulatory activity in the U.S. and Europe through the examination of five regulatory regimes (statutory, appeal, disciplinary, fictional, and contractual). Four, one original feature of this dissertation is to combine a macroscopic analysis of regulatory change with a meticulous approach of several short historical sequences during which important regulatory innovations came into being, notably the New Deal in the U.S. and the European sovereign debt crisis. Thus, in addition to setting the contours of five regulatory frameworks, this dissertation analyses the ways in which regulators used ratings as “clutching” devices to operationalize the legal transition from one regime to another.

[pt] A pesquisa em questão tem por objetivo operar uma análise epistemológica da Modernidade. Fazendo uso da terminologia proposta por Thomas Samuel Kuhn, procura demonstrar como o conhecimento oriundo das ciências naturais adquire, no período moderno, caráter hegemônico e paradigmático,determinando mesmo o desenvolvimento dos saberes político e social de então. Cria-se, assim, uma relação de dependência metodológica, razão pela qual a atual crise do paradigma científico-natural moderno torna impostergável uma revisão do próprio estatuto epistêmico das ciências sociais. O desafio, contudo, consiste em superar as deficiências do paradigma obsoleto sem abandonar aquisições fundamentais por ele proporcionadas, exercendo, para tanto, as teorias de Edgar Morin e Boaventura de Souza Santos papel crucial. / [en] The research in subject aims to operate an epistemological analysis of Modernity. Making use of Thomas Samuel Kuhns terminology, it tries to demonstrate how the knowledge resulted from natural sciences acquires, in the modern period, hegemonic and paradigmatic character, determining then even the development of political and social thought. It is established, thus, a relationship of methodological dependence, insomuch that the current crisis of modern scientific-natural paradigm turns non-postponable the revision of the own epistemic statute of social sciences. The challenge, however, consists in overcoming deficiencies of the obsolete paradigm without abandoning fundamental acquisitions provided by it, having, for this purpose, Edgar Morins and Boaventura de Souza Santos theories crucial role.

The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between the independent variables of age, gender, residence, tribal affiliation, and perceived government control over tribal rights and the dependent variables of hopelessness, self-efficacy, and self-esteem. These attitudes are then explored as to their relationship to possible feelings of powerlessness among American Indians. The survey instruments used are the Beck Hopelessness Scale consisting of 20 items (Beck, Weissman, Lester, and Trexler, 1974), (Reproduced by permission of publisher, Psychological Corporation), the Self-Efficacy Scale consisting of 30 items (Sherer, Maddox, Merchandante, Prentice-Dunn, Jacobs, and Rodgers, 1982) (Reproduced by permission of Dr. Ronald W. Rogers), the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale consisting of 10 items (Rosenberg, 1972) (Reproduced by permission of Dr. Florence Rosenberg) and a demographic questionnaire consisting of 6 items. These instruments were administered to 60 American Indians that make up the sample population of 25 respondents from tribal lands (reservation setting) and 35 respondents from an urban setting. Statistical analysis consists of crosstabulations using Chi-Square and t-tests (used to verify Chi-Square) to determine the significance of the relationship of the independent variables to the dependent variables previously mentioned. Fifteen hypotheses (page 10) were tested to explore the relationships between the above independent variables and the dependent variables. Out of the 15 hypotheses that were investigated two were supported. The two hypotheses are hypothesis 10 and 11. Hypothesis 10 states; American Indians who live on a reservation have more hopelessness than those who live in an urban setting. This hypothesis was indicated to be marginal by Chi-Square analysis but when a t-test was conducted it was shown to be significant. Hypothesis 11 states; American Indians in urban residency will have more self-efficacy than reservation residents. While the data provided minimal support for the theory that hopelessness, self-efficacy, and self-esteem have a relationship to feelings of powerlessness and thus suicide in the American Indian population the outcome of the study provides pertinent data for future research.

The intent of this research project was to discover the barriers that exist in this community when a woman attempts to access prenatal care. A concern for the well being of the children in the community and a belief in the importance of early intervention to enhance outcomes inspired the idea for this project.

Job seekers have often made job choices based upon the degree to which they fit the tasks requirements of the job. This concept is referred to as person-job (P-J) fit. In addition, research has suggested that job seekers self-select organizations to work for based upon the perceived fit between themselves and the organization. This concept is referred to as person-organization (P-O) fit.
