Os migrantes da costura em São Paulo: retalhos de trabalho, cidade e Estado / Garment migrants in São Paulo: pieces of work, city and state

Tiago Rangel Côrtes 02 December 2013 (has links)
Esta pesquisa tem três objetivos centrais. O primeiro é compreender o fenômeno que foi denominado de migração da costura. Evidencia-se o funcionamento dos mecanismos de atração dessa força de trabalho transnacional, situados na dinâmica urbana da Região Metropolitana de São Paulo. Trata-se de perspectiva que retira os aspectos nacionais e étnicos para explicar o fluxo migratório que se insere na cidade através do trabalho na indústria de confecções. A hipótese defendida é que foi estabelecida uma afinidade eletiva entre as transformações ocorridas no setor, a partir da reestruturação produtiva, e o modo pelo qual se estrutura a migração transnacional circulante assentada no que se denominou de dispositivo oficina de costura. Esse dispositivo oferece as condições para a realização do projeto migratório: deslocamento, qualificação, trabalho, moradia e alimentação. O segundo objetivo repousa na compreensão das relações entre o dispositivo oficina de costura e a ideia de trabalho escravo. A proposta é rastrear o início do debate sobre o trabalho escravo da modalidade rural à urbana, tendo como referência os migrantes da costura e identificar tratados, marcos e leis nacionais e internacionais que incidem sobre essas populações. Em seguida, evidenciam-se algumas representações de migrantes sobre a temática. O último ponto propõe uma abordagem sobre o trabalho escravo a partir do caso da fiscalização da grife espanhola Zara. São examinadas as transformações da atuação dos agentes estatais no combate ao trabalho escravo: da repressão e criminalização à gestão do fluxo e da inserção dos migrantes na cidade, que ocorre a partir da mobilização de ONGs e de grandes empresas. Trata-se de compreender o trabalho escravo como aglutinador de uma série de políticas de inclusão, referidas no mercado, que buscam organizar esse mercado de trabalho, além de gerir o fluxo migratório. Abordam-se os limites e contradições dessas ações. A metodologia utilizada foi predominantemente qualitativa, baseada em pesquisa de campo, análise documental e entrevistas semiestruturadas. / This research has three main objectives. The first is to understand the garment workers migration. It analyzes the functioning of the sector that attracts this transnational workforce, located in the urban dynamic of Metropolitan Area of São Paulo. Our approach denies national and ethnic aspects to explain the migration flow that enters the city through the work in the garment industry. The hypothesis is that it was established an elective affinity between the changes in this industry, since the restructuring process, and the way in which is structured the transnational circulating migration, settled in what was called as the garment workshop dispositif. This dispositif provides the conditions for the realization of the migratory project: mobility, qualification, work, housing and nourishment. The second aim lies in understanding the relationship of the garment workshop dispositif with the idea of slave labour. The debate on slave labour is tracked from the rural to the urban mode, with reference to the garment workers migration. It is showed the treaties, national and international laws that concern these migrants. Then, some representations of these migrants about this subject are evidenced. The last aim shifts the understanding of slave labour. We put forward the Zara case, an inspection that identified slave labour in Zara´s chain production. We examine the transformations of the performance of state agents in the fight against slave labour: from repression and criminalization to the government of the flow and the incorporation of migrants with the mobilization of the large companies and NGOs. Slave labour is understood as agglutinating the various politics of inclusion, referred on the market, which seek to organize this labour market and govern the migration flow. This research seeks to highlight the limits and contradictions of these actions. The methodology used was largely qualitative, based on field research, documentary analysis and semi-structured interviews.

Nietzsche e a rebelião escrava do ocidente

Moraes, Tiago Dóbos de 03 December 2010 (has links)

No. of bitstreams: 1 Tiago Dobos de Moraes.pdf: 4268619 bytes, checksum: eaf81444c6e38c1a3225edc9af3a7c32 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2010-12-03 / Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico / This thesis focuses on explaining the movement called by Nietzsche as "Slave Revolt in Morality", engages throughout the history of the western world, whose remarkable figures were the propagators of Christianity. We intend to elucidate that the said "Revolt.. ", presented by the Nietzschean interpretation, reversed the world bringing and stirring all the symptoms of the human weakness, which becomes clear in his most intense attacks, written in The Genealogy of Morals and The Antichrist. Such outlines of fragility are grouped around the moral concept of Good and Bad, focused on the message displayed by Christianity. This paper aims to address the shift of the valuation form when there was strength, health in the world, represented by Good and Mean, to the degenerative valuation form of Good and Evil. In this case there is the concern with showing the Nietzsche's criticism as a will of power used to destroy the aegis of the winning moral, that of the Good and Evil, as a will of power used to destroy the aegis of the winning moral, that of the Good and Evil, constantly emphasizing the consensual judgment that there isn't in Nietzsche's own work a total disruption of the need and importance of a moral - what would be even an awful distortion of the Nietzschean philosophy -, but the purpose to allow new moral forms moral, this time no longer degenerative / Esta dissertação se concentra em explicitar o movimento denominado por Nietzsche de "Rebelião Escrava da Moral", travado ao longo da história do mundo ocidental, e que teve como figuras marcantes os difusores do Cristianismo. Pretendemos elucidar que a dita "Rebelião...", apresentada pela interpretação nietzschiana, reverteu o mundo trazendo e atiçando todos os sintomas de fraqueza humana, o que se torna claro em seus ataques mais intensos, redigidos em A Genealogia da Moral e O Anticristo. Tais contornos de fragilidade se agrupam em torno do conceito moral de Bom e Mau, concentrando-se na mensagem exposta pelo Cristianismo. Este trabalho pretende focar a passagem do modo de valoração de quando havia força, saúde no mundo, representado pelo Bom e Ruim, para o modo de valoração degenerativa do Bom e Mau. Há aqui a preocupação em mostrar a crítica de Nietzsche como uma vontade de poder posta para destruir a égide da moral vitoriosa, a do Bom e Mau, enfatizando, a todo instante, o juízo consensual de que não há, na própria obra de Nietzsche, um rompimento total da necessidade e da importância de uma moral- o que seria, inclusive, uma distorção horrenda da filosofia nietzschiana -, e, sim, o objetivo de possibilitar novos moldes morais, dessa vez não mais degenerativos

It examines conceptual, historic, and normative aspects related to outsourcing in Brazil, since productive chains reflect a type of outsourcing classified as external (externalized) in production, in which all of production is projected outside of the company. Following this, it analyses the way in which contemporary slavery is exteriorized in productive chains in the fashion industry in a context of globalized capitalism. Finally, using concepts connected to the a-contractual theories of employment, as well as aspects connected to the integrative subordination and formation of economic groups of labour, it fundaments the solidary responsibility shared by all companies that integrate the productive chains in the fashion industry when considering the hypothesis of flagrant slave labour in Brazilian territory. / A presente pesquisa trata da tem?tica da responsabilidade trabalhista por explora??o de m?o de obra em condi??es an?logas a de escravo nas cadeias produtivas do setor t?xtil brasileiro. Para tanto, examina aspectos conceituais, hist?ricos e normativos relacionados ? terceiriza??o no Brasil, uma vez que as cadeias produtivas refletem uma modalidade de terceirizar classificada como externa ou externaliza??o da produ??o, que se d? mediante a proje??o para fora da empresa de praticamente todas as etapas produtivas. Na sequ?ncia, analisa a forma mediante a qual a escravid?o contempor?nea se exterioriza, no cen?rio do mundo capitalista globalizado, notadamente nas cadeias produtivas da ind?stria da moda. Ao final, partindo do resgate de conceitos ligados ?s Teorias Acontratualistas da rela??o de emprego, bem como de aspectos relacionados ? subordina??o integrativa e ? figura dos grupos econ?micos trabalhistas, fundamenta a responsabilidade solid?ria de todas as empresas integrantes das cadeias produtivas da ind?stria da moda nas hip?teses de flagrante de trabalho escravo em territ?rio nacional.

A fronteira escravista entre o açúcar e o café: Campinas, 1790-1850 / The slaver frontier between sugar and coffee: Campinas, 1790-1850

Alfonso, Felipe Rodrigues 08 December 2017 (has links)
A presente investigação tem por objetivo central compreender as causas da formação da lavoura cafeeira nos engenhos do Oeste Paulista. Optou-se por concentrar os esforços analíticos na região de Campinas, que se considera ter sido a porta de entrada para o restante do interior paulista, em que a nova cultura pôde estabelecer-se, ainda que de maneira incipiente, a partir já da segunda metade da década de 1820. Especificamente, adotou-se como unidade de observação o produtor pertencente às famílias mais distintas da região, sobretudo que em algum momento de sua trajetória produtiva tenha sido possuidor de ao menos 50 escravos. / The present investigation aims to comprehend the causes for the making of coffee plantations in the West Paulista. It has been decided to concentrate the analytical efforts in the region of Campinas, considered to be the gateway for the rest of the interior of São Paulo, where the new culture could establish, even if incipiently, since the second half of the 1820s. Specifically, it was adopted as a unit of observation the producer belonging to the wealthiest families of the region, especially the one that at some point in his trajectory owned at least 50 slaves.

Tours et détours du genre : les avatars de l'écriture féminine africaine américaine autour de Harriet Jacobs, Harriet Wilson et Hannah Crafts / Genre and Gender Issues in Early Black Women's Writings. A Comparative Study of Harriet Jacobs, Harriet Wilson and Hannah Crafts

Zaaraoui, Karima 22 January 2015 (has links)
L’étude comparative de Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl (Harriet Jacobs), Our Nig ; Sketches from the Life of a Free Black (Harriet Wilson) et The Bondwoman’s Narrative (Hannah Crafts) s’attache à ouvrir de nouvelles perspectives sur la singularité du sujet féminin noir dans les anfractuosités de l’écriture autobiographique du récit d’esclave. Si ces femmes auteurs se constituent en témoins privilégiés de la condition féminine noire de l’Amérique « antebellum », elles n’engagent pas moins leur plume dans l’activisme. L’enjeu de cette thèse est de revenir sur les liens entre écriture et féminin en prenant comme point de départ l’œuvre elle-même, fût-elle autobiographie ou fiction. La saisie de soi et du monde et la quête identitaire sont des thèmes fondamentaux de la tradition romanesque africaine américaine où des voix marquantes se succèdent. L’affranchissement du genre autobiographique s’affirme comme instance de survie où la mise en perspective de la fiction permet de révéler la vérité du sujet. Ainsi, la question du genre constitue la trame de ce panorama où sont examinés la nature du discours du sujet noir, l’écriture du corps féminin, et le théâtre « ima-gyn-aire » d’un sujet en crise. En véritable héritière de Dickens et Byron, Hannah Crafts s’attache à créer des correspondances entre les genres, tandis que Harriet Wilson adresse une lettre ouverte à Emerson et Harriet Jacobs subvertit le roman sentimental. Ces trois femmes situent, contre toute attente, l’esthétique du récit d’esclave au carrefour de la littérature autobiographique, sentimentale, gothique et picaresque. Nous verrons, à travers ce travail, que ce n’est pas tant l’anatomie qui distingue le sujet mais plutôt la façon qu’a le sujet de se ranger d’un côté ou de l’autre du genre ; le sujet féminin peut désormais évoluer dans un nouvel espace le libérant de l’emprise du masculin. Cette thèse est également l’occasion d’une réflexion sur la dialectique de l’historicité et la littérarité où l’engagement politique de l’auteur du récit d’esclave, qui est appelé à s’imposer comme littérature, invite à porter un nouveau regard sur la production littéraire féminine avant-gardiste, et ainsi donner un nouvel élan à la littérature africaine américaine. / The comparative study of Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl (Harriet Jacobs), Our Nig ; Sketches from the Life of a Free Black (Harriet Wilson), and The Bondwoman’s Narrative (Hannah Crafts) aims at opening up new perspectives on the specificity of the female subject, through the slave narrative’s autobiographical writing. If these women writers stand as privileged witnesses of the female condition in Antebellum America, they do not remain passive nonetheless. The aim of this dissertation is to approach the links between « writing » and « feminine », by taking into account the text itself, be it autobiographical or fictionalized. Significantly enough, self-consciousness, identity and the construction of a self through writing are definitely major components of the African American literary tradition in which outstanding voices are singled out. The slave narrative tends to drift away from autobiography in order to afford its survival and conforms to the conventions that proved successful, thus revealing the truth of the subject. In this perspective, gender is the key issue of this study which brings an exclusive insight on black women’s writing. Discursive difference, writing the female body, and a staged conflicted subject are the core themes of this work. As a follower of Dickens and Byron, Hannah Crafts creates a unique blend of genres, while Harriet Wilson’s modus operandi is to rewrite Emerson’s reflections on society, and Harriet Jacobs offers a subversion of the sentimental novel. By all means, these female slave narratives’ « tour de force » lies in the aesthetics and poetics of the genre located at the crossroads of autobiography, sentimental fiction, the gothic and the picaresque. The subject determines its own sexuation, which enables the female subject to break free from the male subject. This dissertation also offers the opportunity to raise the question of history and literature. The slave narrative falls within the frame of literature as the writer’s political stance is an invitation to reconsider avant-garde women’s literary production within the African American literary canon.

Identifying and Mitigating Domestic Minor Sex Trafficking in an Urban Community

Gresham, Anne Ellen 01 January 2015 (has links)
Human trafficking, domestic minor sex trafficking (DMST), and commercial sexual exploitation of children (CSEC) are complex and multifaceted occurrences in the United States. As the numbers of youth ensnared in sexually exploitive situations increase, organizations and communities are called upon to address the ramifications of this abuse; little research was located, however, that examined collaborative networks and partnerships that address victim identification and mitigation of DMST and CSEC. The purpose of this qualitative single case study was to determine whether strategic partnerships existed within the community under investigation. The theoretical framework was environmental theory, as first described by Florence Nightingale; the conceptual framework was centered on collaborative networks. Research questions focused on victim identification and organizational strategies for collaboration and mitigation of sex trafficking. The research population was composed of 8 individuals working in organizations in a metropolitan area on the West Coast that served victims of DMST and CSEC. Data obtained from interviews were coded, compared, and analyzed for major and emergent themes. Findings indicated that, in the effort to identify victims, these 8 individuals needed to consider all children involved in prostitution as victims and not criminals. Further, their efforts toward mitigation needed to center on widespread education across the broader social spectrum of the issues with DMST and CSEC. These workers identified strategies identified to address DMST and CSEC included the "5 Ps": prevention, protection, prosecution, partnership, and policy. These findings may inform organizations and policy makers about how to make informed decisions about the needs and challenges of addressing sexually exploited youth.

Mémoires et survivances de la traite des Noirs dans la baie du Bénin : permanences et mutations interculturelles de l'héritage des Retornados Aguda au Bénin / Memories and remnants of the slave trade in the bight of Benin : intercultural continuities and changes of the Retornees Aguda’s legacy in Benin

Adisso, José Quirin Coffi 10 January 2019 (has links)
L’étude des relations interculturelles entre l’Afrique noire et le Brésil dans le cadre de la traite négrière transatlantique, nous a amené à nous intéresser à la singulière odyssée des Retornados Aguda du Bénin. Ce sont des esclaves émancipés revenus majoritairement de Bahia au lendemain de la révolte Malè (1835), dans les aires culturelles et géographiques de leurs ancêtres, celles de la Côte des Esclaves. Face au défi de réintégration dans une société qui les avait exclus au moins un siècle plutôt, ces "hommes nouveaux" ont développé d’ingénieux mécanismes de résistance et d’affirmation de soi, pour construire une aristocratie aux prestiges remarquables aux côtés des négriers portugais, brésiliens, anglais, français, hollandais, et danois installés sur cette côte de l’Afrique pour le commerce des esclaves. C’est à ce titre, et comme des éducateurs sociaux qu’ils ont éminemment contribué à la transformation socio-culturelle, économique et politique des aires d’accueil allant jusqu’à une profonde modification des us et coutumes locaux. Dans cette même logique, ils ont formé la première élite intellectuelle au service de la colonisation française qu’ils ont combattue par la suite jusqu’à la l’indépendance du Dahomey. Cette étude met en lumière les permanences et les mutations successives des vestiges de l’héritage socio-culturel, linguistique, politique et religieux des Aguda qui se poursuivent et se ressentent dans la société béninoise contemporaine. Les racines de ces apports afrobrésiliens sont si profondément enfouies dans les usages des Béninois contemporains au point que certains ont du mal à imaginer que des pratiques de leur quotidien qu’ils se sont appropriées et remodelées à leur goût au fil de générations, sont venues de l’autre côté de l’Atlantique. / In the quest of a study of the intercultural relations between sub-Saharan Africa and Brazil, we come to investigate on the particular odyssey of the Retornees Aguda in Benin. They are formers are slavers coming back home mainly from Bahia, following the Malè revolt (1835), in their former cultural and geographic area where their ancestors have been caught and sold as slaves, the Slave Coast. Meeting the challenge of their reintegration in a community where their ancestors were expelled, those “new people” used some resourceful resistant mechanisms, and a powerful self-assertion to build a distinguish aristocratic class together with the Portuguese, the Brazilian, the English, the French, the Danish and the Dutch slavers settled on that coast many years ago.It is on the crest of that high position in the society that they greatly took part in the socio-economic and cultural changes in those welcoming areas up to deep transfer in local habits and customs. In so doing, they have been the first intellectual elite serving the French colonial administration that they later opposed till the independence of the Dahomey colony. This survey brings into light the continuities as well as the remarkable changes on the remnants of the Aguda’s sociocultural, linguistic, politic and religious legacy which are deeply rooted in Beninese’s everyday life that some of them hardly guess that some daily usages come from the other side of the Atlantic Ocean.

Säsongsrörelser i Bristols slavhandel, 1698-1776.

Kenttä, Tony January 2010 (has links)
<p>This master's essay is about seasonality in Bristols slave trade until the American Revolution 1776. The essay uses the Voyages database as the primary material. The essay's method is to study monthly distribution at different points of the slave trade – the departure from Bristol and the arrival at the American destination. The seasonality of slave purchases in Africa is primarly studied through the monthly distribution of departures from Bristol for a specific region in Africa. This methodological choice is based on the lack of coverage of African arrival dates. The theoretical groundwork in the essay is foremost based on Henri Lefebvre's concept of rhytm analysis. The results of the essay show that there usually was some seasonality in the different parts of Bristol's slave trade. The essay tries to relate this seasonality with possible explanations, like the need of provisions, trade goods, harvest cycles in Africa and America, though the essay doesn't have any pretensions of proving actual causal relations, just that the seasonality of the slave trade coincided with other seasonal cycles.</p>

Origins and Orthodoxy: Anthologies of American Literature and American History

Vollaro, Daniel Richard 29 August 2008 (has links)
This dissertation examines how the new “multicultural phase” anthologies of American literature treat American history. Anthologies of American literature are more historical, more diverse, and more multidisciplinary than ever before, but they have over-extended themselves in both their historical and representational reach. They are not, despite their diversity and historicism, effective vehicles for promoting critical discussions of American history in the classroom. Chapter One outlines a brief history of anthologies of American literature, while also introducing the terminology and methodology used in this study. Chapter Two explores the role of the headnote as a vehicle for American history in anthologies by focusing on headnotes to Abraham Lincoln in multiple anthologies. Chapter Three examines how anthologies frame Native American origin stories for their readers. Chapter Four focuses on the issues raised by anthologizing texts originally composed in Spanish, and Chapter Five argues for a transnational broadening of the “slavery theme” in anthologies to include Barbary captivity narratives and texts that reference Indian slavery.
