Buscou-se reconstruir o procedimento da investigaça?o e as técnicas de pesquisa empírica mobilizadas, em especial o contato entre pesquisadores acadêmicos e intelectuais negros identificados com os movimentos sociais do "meio negro" de Sa?o Paulo. A metodologia utilizada consistiu na ana?lise conjunta da tese de cátedra de Fernandes de 1964 intitulada A integraça?o do negro na sociedade de classes e da documentaça?o referente ao material empírico coletado em sua forma original, presente no Fundo Florestan Fernandes (localizado na Biblioteca Comunita?ria da Universidade Federal de Sa?o Carlos), procurando estabelecer conexões entre a interpretação sociológica e o contexto original da pesquisa empírica, por meio da análise e explicitação do tratamento e recorte do material bruto coletado realizados por Florestan Fernandes. A riqueza do material empi?rico comprova a importância e a complexidade da interaça?o entre a investigaça?o sociolo?gica e meio social. Os documentos do Fundo evidenciam a pluralidade de te?cnicas de pesquisa mobilizadas pelos investigadores para coletar dados por meio da criação de situaço?es de dia?logo com os intelectuais negros colaboradores: histo?rias de vida, estudos de caso, observaço?es em massa em situaço?es individuais (por meio de questiona?rios) e em situaço?es grupais (por meio de onze Mesas Redondas realizadas em 1951 e que reuniram pesquisadores brancos e intelectuais do "meio negro"). A análise das histórias de vida de José Correia Leite e Francisco Lucrécio, ambas coletadas por Renato Jardim Moreira, da monografia "Movimentos sociais no meio negro" e das atas disponíveis das Mesas Redondas compõem o núcleo do tratamento que se deu ao material do Fundo, em conjunto com a organização de um apêndice que fornece um guia para futuros pesquisadores interessados na exploração de todo o material original disponível / Abstract: This thesis deals with the UNESCO Research on Racial Relations, coordinated in São Paulo by Florestan Fernandes and Roger Bastide. The objective was to reconstruct the investigation's procedure and the techniques of empirical research that were utilized, specially the contact between the sociologists involved and black intellectuals identified with the social movements in São Paulo's "black milieu". The methodology consisted in the joint analysis of the 1964 Fernandes' Full Professor Thesis entitled A integração do negro na sociedade de classes and the collected empirical material in its original form, at the "Fundo Florestan Fernandes" (located in the Federal University of São Carlos' Community Library), seeking to establish connections between the sociological interpretation of Fernandes' work and the empirical research's original context, through the analysis of the treatment and interpretation of the raw material collected, performed by Florestan Fernandes. The extent of the empirical data collected indicates the importance and the complexity of the interaction between sociological research and social movements. The documents located at Fundo Florestan Fernandes show the diversity of the techniques that were employed by creating situations of dialogue with black intellectuals: Life Stories; Case Studies; Individual Mass Observations (by the use of questionnaires) and Mass Observations in Group Situations (by the organization of eleven Round Tables with black intellectuals in 1951). The material that was analyzed in this thesis is that of two Life Stories, of José Correia Leite and Francisco Lucrécio, collected by the sociologist Renato Jardim Moreira; the Case Study "Social Movements in the Black Milieu", written by Correia Leite and Moreira; and the transcripts of the Round Tables. In addition, it was made an Appendix with a guide to future researchers interested in the entire collection of empirical material that is available at the "Fundo Florestan Fernandes" / Mestrado / Sociologia / Mestra em Sociologia

Queer-identified women in Canada and elsewhere are underserved as a community with regard to the provision of support for drug use related problems. In order to provide much needed inclusive support services, researchers, policy makers and treatment providers must recognize and act on the interface of oppression with substance use in populations of queer women. The homophobia and heterosexism endemic to our society is an issue that necessitates the exploration, development, and inclusion of responsive policies and services for queer women who seek - or desire to seek - support for problematic substance use. This research study explores the support needs of queer-identified women who experience difficulties as a result of drug use. Through qualitative, interview-based research, my inquiry examines responses to the question: What are the support needs of women who are impacted by the confluence of heteronormativity and problematic drug use? Data are derived from nine, semi-structured in-depth interviews with women in the Vancouver Island and Lower Mainland areas of British Columbia. The methodological framework incorporates a critical feminist approach. A thematic analysis technique was utilized to analyse the interviews, with data categorized into three primary themes of discrimination, resistance, and support. Findings indicate that queer women require distinct support services for problematic substance use issues in an effort to redress systemic heteronormativity.

Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) / A theoretical understanding of stratification and inequality is necessary to understand social phenomena in general. Unfortunately, professional sociology in the United States has historically promoted a limited theoretical understanding of stratification that tends to ignore economic realities, social structures, institutional mechanisms, power relations, and other important factors such as racial discrimination in reproducing social class. In fact, mainstream sociology has replaced class-based theories altogether with the concept of socio-economic status (SES) and, at the same time, all too often embraces problematic theories that justify inequality. This critical literature review of social class in American sociology attempts to: 1) provide a more comprehensive history of sociological theory in the United States regarding stratification and social class, 2) expose the sociological factors affecting these social theories and concepts, and 3) deconstruct and critique mainstream social theories that offer weak explanations of stratification.

Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) / The Ideology of Stadium Construction seeks to define the application of community power in the process of building sports stadiums. Using data culled from a literature review, this project examines the recent construction of sports venues and the political, economic, and social ideas driving their proliferation. A three dimensional approach to applied power provides a theoretical tool to illustrate and analyze the blueprint of stadium construction. Taking a more broad view of the culture of business in the United States suggests the public funding of stadium construction arching towards Antonio Gramsci’s sense of hegemony. Beyond attempting to merely define the political process driving stadium construction as a significant social problem, this project introduces potential alternatives to the organizational method currently in place.
