Trajetórias intelectuais: professoras do Curso de Ciências Sociais da FFCL-USP (1934-1969) / Trajectories intellectuals: teachers of the Course of Social Sciences FFCL-USP (1934-1969)

Spirandelli, Claudinei Carlos 16 February 2009 (has links)
O presente trabalho, cujo objetivo principal é interpretar sociologicamente a atuação de produtores da chamada ciência social uspiana, investiga aspectos da trajetória intelectual de algumas professoras do Curso de Ciências Sociais da Faculdade de Filosofia, Ciências e Letras, da Universidade de São Paulo, examinando disputas simbólicas típicas de grupos intelectuais e voltadas para a conquista da afirmação acadêmica nas Cátedras do Curso. Tais disputas seriam inerentes à busca de afirmação, poder e legitimação, por parte dos cientistas sociais em geral, e corresponderiam a clivagens que são analisadas a partir das origens sociais dessas professoras e das relações de sociabilidade em que elas se enredavam. O autor mostra que tais origens e relações teriam interferido na carreira delas (posições, cargos, títulos conquistados e obras produzidas). Ele usa como referenciais teóricos, principalmente, obras de Pierre Bourdieu e de Norbert Elias, e se vale de textos biográficos, autobiográficos, depoimentos, entrevistas, memoriais e cartas. O trabalho se insere no âmbito dos estudos da sociologia da cultura, mais especificamente na chamada história intelectual ou sociologia da vida intelectual. / This paper, whose principal objective are make a sociological interpretation about the actuation of productors of Social Sciences from USP, research aspects of the intellectual trajectories of female professors from the Socials Science course of Faculdade de Filosofia, Ciências e Letras, of the Universidade de São Paulo, inquire symbolic arguments typical of intellectual groups and with the intention obtaining academic affirmation in the Cathedras of this Course. In addition, such arguments matches would be inherent in the search of affirmations, power and legitimation, by social scientists in general, and they would correspond to cleavages that are analyzed starting from the social origins of these female professors and from the sociability relationship in which they are entangled. The author shows which these origins and relationships would have been interferenced in their careers (positions, achieved titles and produced works). He uses like theoretical references, mainly, works of Pierre Bourdieu and Norbert Elias, and to have recourse of biographical and autobiographical texts, testimonies, interviews, memorials and letters. The paper is inserting in the environment of studies of sociology of culture, more specifically in the called intellectual history or intellectual life sociology.

Universitas semper reformanda?: a história da Universidade de São Paulo e o discurso da gestão à luz da estrutura social / Universitas semper reformanda?: the history of the University of São Paulo and the management discourse in light of the social structure

Carlotto, Maria Caramez 05 September 2014 (has links)
Na literatura nacional e internacional sobre a transformação contemporânea das universidades, são muitos os estudos que enfatizam o impacto do conhecimento gerencial sobre a reorganização dos procedimentos de decisão, controle e coordenação do trabalho acadêmico. Partindo dessas análises, a presente pesquisa buscou interrogar o papel do discurso gerencial na redefinição do governo acadêmico das universidades brasileiras enfatizando a sua relação com a estrutura social, que se expressa, no interior da universidade, pela hierarquização política, social e acadêmica das suas diferentes unidades. Para tanto, esta tese baseia-se em um estudo de caso sobre a Universidade de São Paulo uma das maiores, mais importantes e mais antigas universidades de pesquisa do país que sofreu diretamente o impacto dos saberes gerenciais na redefinição das suas estruturas internas de governo a partir dos anos 1960. Em termos gerais, a tese essencial deste trabalho é de que o discurso gerencial conseguiu se impor na USP pela ação do seu polo dominante, formado pelas unidades profissionais tradicionais que conseguiram, justamente pela sua posição na estrutura social, impor sua visão de universidade e de governo acadêmico / Among the national and international literature upon the contemporary transformation of the universities, many studies underline the impact of the management knowledge on the reorganization of the procedures related to the decision, accountability and coordination of the academic work. Departing from these analysis, the present research intend to interrogate the role of the management discourse in the redefinition of the academic government of Brazilian university, emphasizing the relation with its social structure, expressed through the political, social and academic hierarchisation of university faculties. In that sense, this thesis is based on a case study about the São Paulo University one of the biggest, oldest, and most important research university of Brazil that suffered directly the impact of the management knowledge in the redefinition of its intern structure of government from the 1960 onwards. In general terms, the essential argument of this work is that the management discourse could impose itself in the São Paulo University through the action of the dominant pole, composed by the traditional-professional faculties that, due to its position in the social structure, achieved to impose its conception of university and academic government

Inciter au travail : la convergence des instruments, cadres cognitifs et objectifs des réformes sociales "actives" dans le contexte de la Stratégie Européenne pour l'Emploi (Espagne, France, Pays-Bas) / Make work pay : when instruments, cognitive frames and objectives of social 'active' policies converge in the European Context : a comparative approach (Spain, France, the Netherlands)

Arrignon, Mehdi 12 December 2012 (has links)
Bien que n'ayant ni les mêmes résultats ni les mêmes traditions en matière de protection sociale, la France, l'Espagne et les Pays-Bas ont tous mis en œuvre des réformes d'« activation » de leurs politiques sociales dans les années 2000. Ces réformes ont-elles été guidées par des objectifs et des attendus comparables ? « L'activation » a-t-elle eu des effets similaires sur les systèmes de protection sociale ? S'ils sont similaires, les changements communs peuvent-ils être imputés à des facteurs communs ? La thèse traite ces trois questions principales en adoptant une approche théorique et méthodologique attentive aux facteurs sociaux et cognitifs du changement en matière de politiques sociales. En croisant l'étude des dispositifs publics et des textes officiels avec des entretiens semi-directifs réalisés dans quatre pays et à plusieurs niveaux de gouvernement (n=71), l'analyse comparée des réformes sociales « actives » permet de tirer deux conclusions principales : les cadres cognitifs, les instruments et les objectifs des politiques sociales tendent à se rapprocher sous l'effet des réformes d'« activation » menées dans les années 2000 en France en Espagne et aux Pays-Bas, et cette convergence a été favorisée par des mécanismes communautaires mis en œuvre dans le cadre de la Stratégie Européenne pour l'Emploi. / L'auteur n'a pas fourni de résumé en anglais.

Does leadership matter?: the relationship of school leadership to a safe school climate,bullying, and fighting in middle school

Unknown Date (has links)
The purpose of this quantitative study was to determine if there is a relationship between transformational principal leadership style, a safe school climate, and school safety (specifically, the number of reported fights and reported bullying incidents) in Broward County, Florida’s middle schools. This study also investigated if a relationship exists between transformational leadership and a safe school climate, transformational leadership, and the number of bullying incidents and student fights, and a safe school climate and the number of bullying incidents and student fights. The study surveyed 12 middle schools located in a large, urban district in south Florida. Principal leadership style was determined from the MLQ-5X, school safety climate was determined from the school district’s Annual Customer Survey, and the reported number of fights and bullying incidents recorded in the school district’s Discipline Management System were collected via records request for each participating middle school and tallied. Pearson correlations were conducted to examine the bivariate association between the leadership dimensions, a safe school climate, and school violence. Separate multiple linear regression models were used to examine the following relationships: leadership style and the number of reported fights and reported bullying incidents; leadership style and a safe school climate; and a safe school climate and the number of reported fights and reported bullying incidents. The findings suggested that there were no statistically significant correlations between leadership style (transformational, transactional, and laissez-faire), and bullying or fighting, and no statistically significant correlation between principal leadership style and middle school climate. There was a statistically significant correlation found between school climate and the number of student fights. The significance of this finding is important because it illustrates the adverse impact fighting has on student safety, which, in turn, adversely affects the school climate. Therefore, it is up to the school leader to create a climate where everyone feels safe can focus on student achievement. / Includes bibliography. / Dissertation (Ph.D.)--Florida Atlantic University, 2014. / FAU Electronic Theses and Dissertations Collection

No. of bitstreams: 1 Luiz Augusto Sartori de Castro.pdf: 1991160 bytes, checksum: c46203534cfaf5ae66d7aac8e39813d6 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2018-03-23 / The main focus brought in the present project is to empirically demonstrate the inefficiency of Criminal Law as an instrument against the advance of crimes, especially in view of the fact that, despite of more than 142 criminal laws have been produced between the democratization of Brazil and December 31, 2017 - 88% more severe -, criminal records keeps increasing, as the massive imprisonment, which percentage between 1990/2017 reached 707%. Therefore, the present study intents to discuss that both the expansion of legal assets, as well as the increase in the penalties already provided for in the Legal Order are not able instruments to achieve the proposed purpose, namely, reduction of crime in Brazil, much less demand the punitive movement of the last decades – based on the culture of fear – under the allegation that the existing mechanisms of defenses against the crime are not enough. Finally, a proposal for a new Criminal Law will be suggested, based on Niklas Luhmann's system theory, which, in addition to ensuring the ultima ratio of the latter, allows for a responsive treatment of deviant action / A raiz do problema trazido no bojo do presente estudo é demonstrar empiricamente a ineficiência da austeridade do Direito Penal como meio de combater o avanço da criminalidade, notadamente diante do fato de que, malgrado terem sido produzidas mais de 142 leis penais entre a redemocratização do Brasil e 31 de dezembro de 2017 – 88% mais severas –, os índices de prática delitiva não apresentam redução. Ao revés, continuam a crescer desenfreadamente, tal como o encarceramento, cujo aumento percentual entre 1990/2017 alcançou 707%. Assim, busca-se com o presente trabalho debater que tanto a expansão de bens jurídicos a serem tutelados pelo Direito Penal, quanto o recrudescimento das penas dos delitos já previstos no Ordenamento Jurídico não são instrumentos hábeis a alcançar o fim proposto, a saber, a redução da criminalidade no Brasil, muito menos a demandar o movimento punitivista das últimas décadas – fundado na cultura do medo –, sob a bandeira de que os mecanismos atuais de defesas contra o crime não são suficientes. Sugerir-se-á, então, uma proposta de um novo Direito Penal, a partir da teoria dos sistemas de Niklas Luhmann, a qual, para além de assegurar a característica de ultima ratio daquele, permite um tratamento responsivo do agir desviado

Understanding collective action in repressive contexts : the role of perceived risk in shaping collective action intentions

Ayanian, Arin H. January 2017 (has links)
The aim of the present research is to advance a general predictive model of the social psychological processes underlying collective action in contexts where collective action is met with significant repression by the authorities. The model integrates the recent advancements in the collective action literature and examines the unique predictive role of anger and fear (emotional pathway), political, identity consolidation and participative efficacies (instrumental pathway), politicised identification (identity pathway) as well as moral obligation, over and above past participation. Moreover, the research investigates how perceived risk, due to government sanctions, shapes these antecedents and the willingness to engage in collective action. Five survey studies (Studies 1 to 5) test this model in various repressive contexts (i.e., Egypt, Hong Kong, Russia, Ukraine, and Turkey). In addition, one experimental study (Study 6) examines the causal relation between perceived risk and (a) the antecedents of collective action and (b) the action intentions in a British sample. The results confirm the intensifying role of perceived risk, whereby it indirectly spurs further resistance through shaping the antecedents of collective action. The results also suggest that protesters are intrinsically motivated to engage in collective action when placed under risk. Specifically, although not motivated by political efficacy, protesters are strategic as they are motivated by the likelihood to consolidate the identity of their protest movement and the likelihood of their own participation to incrementally contribute to achieving the desired goals. Moreover, they are emotional, politicised and dutiful as their outrage towards how the authorities treat the protesters, their identification with their protest movement, as well as their sense of moral responsibility encourage them to take action despite the risks.

No. of bitstreams: 1 Sergio Luiz de Souza Vieira.pdf: 3642522 bytes, checksum: 4c32923f71afc48635ba61932b5a5fe3 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2017-04-10 / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior - CAPES / The humanity experiences new moments of uncertainty. We came to the 21st century of the Christian was in the midst of the astonishment of the finite support of life on the planet, due to the affectations in the biosphere. Given this dramatic context, the UN - United Nations has made constant calls for all social segments to reflect on their environmental responsibilities. In this sense, this thesis seeks to provide new reflections on the historical sense of Social Work in contemporary times and seeks to draw attention to the socio-environmental aspects that are articulated with the legal attributions of the profession in Brazil. Part of the realization that the social misery and social question identified in the 19 st century by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels were in fact disputes over the different uses of natural resources, therefore, it is shown that they were expressions of the socio-environmental question. It has as theoretical support the ecological aspects addressed by Marx throughout his works, from his doctoral thesis. In this it is evident that such author, who is referential in Social Work, had great concern with the environment. The fact that the third generation of human rights includes environmental preservation is also aligned with this aspect. Thus, due to the ethical principle of the intransigent defense of Human Rights, all Social Workers are deontologically committed to reviewing their knowledge and doing, perhaps, to promote new professional reconception, necessary, therefore, to meet the demands that arise in function of these Signs of time. It is an exploratory research whose result seeks to clarify a context. The methodology used dialectics, interviews, field research, bibliographic sources, documents and correlational studies / A humanidade vive novos momentos de incerteza. Chegamos ao século XXI da era cristã em meio ao assombro da finitude dos suportes de vida no planeta, em função das afetações na biosfera. Diante deste contexto dramático, a ONU – Organização das Nações Unidas, tem feito constantes apelos para que todos os segmentos sociais reflitam sobre suas responsabilidades ambientais. Neste sentido esta tese busca propiciar novas reflexões sobre o sentido histórico do Serviço Social na contemporaneidade e busca chamar a atenção para os aspectos socioambientais que se articulam com as atribuições legais da profissão no Brasil. Parte da compreensão de que a miséria social e a questão social identificadas no século XIX por Karl Marx e Friedrich Engels eram na realidade disputas pelos diferentes usos dos recursos naturais, portanto, demonstra-se que eram expressões da questão socioambiental. Tem como suporte teórico os aspectos ecológicos abordados por Marx ao longo de suas obras, desde sua tese doutoral. Nisto se evidencia que tal autor, que é referencial no Serviço Social, teve grande preocupação com o meio ambiente. Alinha-se com tal aspecto o fato da terceira geração dos Direitos Humanos incluir também a preservação ambiental. Deste modo, pelo princípio ético da defesa intransigente dos Direitos Humanos, todos os Assistentes Sociais estão deontologicamente comprometidos a rever seus saberes e fazeres, quiçá, a promoverem nova reconceituação profissional, necessária, portanto, para os enfrentamentos das demandas que se apresentam em função destes sinais dos tempos. Trata-se de pesquisa exploratória cujo resultado busca aclarar um contexto. A metodologia utilizou-se da dialética, de entrevistas, de pesquisa de campo, fontes bibliográficas, documentos e estudos correlacionais

The Aesthetics of Academic Choice

Redd, Rozlyn January 2015 (has links)
Undergraduates' field of study is intricately linked to inequality in the US, where women have surpassed men in most indexes of academic achievement but continue to be less likely than men to complete STEM degrees. This gendered variation in major selection has substantial implications for stratification: college major choice is closely related to labor market outcomes and advancement to future degrees. Building on recent theoretical developments in social aesthetics and field theory, the project argues that academic interests are developed in concert with encounters in the environment, and that position in academic fields at the start of university, gendered distributions of interest patterns, and peer influence play a critical role in gender differentiation in college major choice. The project uses a unique longitudinal data combining complex administrative databases from an elite American university, merging admissions, housing, course, financial aid, and alumni data. Multiple correspondence analysis shows that students' interests are organized in academic fields characterized by divisions between knowledge domains: science interests oppose social sciences, economics interests oppose humanities, and life sciences are differentiated from hard sciences. Knowledge domains share features of retention and attraction, and movement between disciplines that are close together in students' interest spaces are more common. Using clustering methods, the project shows that there are important distinctions in how students are interested in disciplines: some students are particularly devoted to knowledge domains, while other students are generalists. These finding have important implications for women and men, who have different interest patterns. There is durability in gender differences in high school interests reinforced by both retention and attraction to disciplines once at school. The last chapter of the dissertation explores the role that peer influence plays in these outcomes. Because students' interests are organized in academic fields, peer influence on academic major choice is better understood as a field effect. Utilizing the fact that roommate assignment is random at this university, the project shows that choosing a major is associated with roommate's interests coming into college, and this association depends on students' own initial interests when applying to university. Generalist science students are more likely to complete science degrees when they have science or engineering roommates compared to those who have humanities roommates, while devoted science students are less mutable. Because women are less likely to have roommates who are in sciences and engineering, gender segregation of roommates contributes to gender difference in STEM outcomes. By reframing choice as a question of social aesthetics, the project makes important contributions to understanding choice, inequality and peer influence.
