There have been many studies conducted on television and its effects. Since the 1950's, when television emerged, there has been an influx of patterns and behaviors associated with television viewing and programming. Many researchers are fascinated with television and the reactions of those who are directly affected by it. People have been known to act out in many ways as a result of something they saw on television. Many believe that television viewing directly affects a person's mind. An analysis of the results of this qualitative study indicates that college students perceive television has an impact on viewers. Throughout the course of both the focus group and individual interviews, several themes were strongly developed among participants. These included: 1.College students do not believe that television influences the way they individually dress, act, and eat, but it does influence the same behaviors of other people their age. However, these same students reported that they recognized that television has an influence on their lives, and in combination with how they were raised in their families, it made them who they are today. 2.College students continue to believe there is too much violence on television. 3.Television often does not depict reality.

The work deals with the current theme, which is the expertise of social workers in contemporary society. It responds not only to the changing requirements of the qualification requirements, but also to emerging professional organization of social workers, changes in education and in other structures of society. The goal is to put together a "picture" of a competent social worker for today's society. The work appears in data obtained by the project team Gaju 117/2013 / H.

Trata-se de uma pesquisa de natureza qualitativa que partiu de um enfoque específico da Psicologia Social: o ECRO (Esquema Conceitual Referencial e Operativo) criado e desenvolvido por Pichon-Rivière. Foram realizadas, de maneira individualizada, entrevistas semi-estruturadas com três casais de classe média/média alta de salvador, com nível superior e com filhos em idade de 05 a 10 anos. Em seguida, foi realizado o Grupo Operativo com as três mulheres/cônjuges dos casais entrevistados e mais duas mulheres cujos cônjuges não puderam ser entrevistados. Os resultados coletados foram apresentados através de cinco eixos temáticos: Mulher X Trabalho; Individualização X Pertença/cooperação; Crise X Mudança/Superação; Verticalidade X Horizontalidade; Novas tecnologias X Novos vínculos X Novos modelos de aprendizagem. Tais eixos puderam revelar que, a função de socialização e educação no grupo familiar vem sendo dificultada cotidianamente, como também a função parental que a sustenta, devido às condições novas e adversas que emergem com os processos sociais, culturais e tecnológicos na atualidade. Esses processos, pelo grau de aceleração com que ocorrem, geram instabilidade e insegurança no âmbito familiar e, portanto, em seus vínculos. Neste contexto e em relação às funções já citadas, a mãe/mulher tem o papel mais participativo junto aos filhos e na sustentação dos vínculos familiares. Os aspectos revelados não são conclusivos e merecem maior aprofundamento devido ao seu nível de complexidade. / INTRODUCTION: The present study aimed to investigate how the internal dynamics of the contemporary family group has been developing on its network link and interaction, seeking to understand its resonances in the children’s process of socialization. This is a qualitative research that started with a specific focus of Social Psychology: CSRO (Conceptual Schema Reference and Operation) created and developed by Pichon-Rivière. METHODOLOGY: Semi-structured interviews were carried out on an individual basis, with three couples of middle class/upper middle class in Salvador with higher education, and children in 05-10 years. Then, the Operational Group formed with three women/spouses of interviewed couples and two other women whose spouses could not be interviewed. RESULTS: The results obtained were presented through five theme axes: Women X Work; Individualization X Belonging/Cooperation; Crisis X Change/Overcoming; Verticality X Horizontality; New technologies X New bonds X New models of learning. Such axes might reveal that the function of socialization and education in the family is being hampered every day, as well as the parental function that sustains it, due to new and adverse conditions emerging from social, cultural and technological processes nowadays. Those processes, due to the degree of acceleration they occur, generate instability and insecurity in the family and therefore in their ties. CONCLUSION: In this context and in relation to the functions already mentioned, the mother/woman has a more participatory role with their children and in the support of family bonds. Aspects revealed are inconclusive and deserve a more profound study, due to their level of complexity.

Esta tese investiga um conjunto de práticas do cotidiano relacionadas à improvisação de objetos industrializados, visando finalidades utilitárias. Tais práticas, devido à especificidade de modificar o produto industrial com este propósito, são aqui designadas \"gambiarras\". Defende-se que elas constituem procedimentos necessários e complementares ao uso dos artefatos produzidos pelo modo de produção capitalista, subvertendo seus designs. Fundamentada empiricamente pela coleta e organização de documentação iconográfica original, abrangendo diferentes tipos de manifestações concretas do objeto de pesquisa, a tese interpreta esse material através de duas linhas teóricas. De inicio, sob a luz da teoria da mercadoria contida em O Capital e outros escritos, busca entender a estrutura do contexto socioeconômico da gambiarra, utilizando-se de alguns apontamentos históricosociais complementares. Em seguida, amparada pelas proposições de Michel de Certeau acerca das \"práticas do cotidiano\" e da \"produção através do consumo\", a gambiarra é focalizada como manifestação da permanente criatividade humana e como tática social capaz de manobrar a ordem tradicional de mercado baseada na perspectiva de um consumo passivo. / This thesis investigates a set of everyday life practices related to the improvisation of industrialized objects, aiming utilitarian finility. Such practices, due to the specificity of modifying the industrial product with this purpose, are here called \"gambiarras\" (Brazilian word for kludge, workaround). It is argued that these procedures are necessary and complementary to the use of the artifacts produced by the capitalist mode of production, subverting its designs. Substantiated empirically by the collecting and organization of original iconographic documentation, covering different types of tangible object of research, the thesis interprets this material through two theoretical lines. Initially, under the light of the theory of the commodity contained in Das Capital and other essays, seeks to understand the structure of the socioeconomic context of the gambiarra, using some additional sociohistorical notes. Then, supported by propositions of Michel de Certeau about the \"everyday practices\" and the \"production through consumption\", the gambiarra is focused as permanent manifestation of human creativity and social tactics able to maneuver the traditional order of market-based perspective of a passive consumption.

Alessandro Baricco, escritor italiano contemporâneo, acredita na força da narrativa como forma de resistência aos apelos de uma sociedade que já não consegue trocar experiências, nem ver o essencial, já que vítima de uma espécie de embotamento da palavra e dos sentidos, o que, no limite, está intimamente relacionado ao atual crescente processo de desumanização. Neste estudo procuraremos verificar com que procedimentos o autor investe na reinvenção do narrador, em particular nas obras Novecento e Castelli di rabbia, a fim de revitalizar a arte de narrar. / Alessandro Baricco, a contemporary italian writer, believes in the narratives strenght as a resistences form against the claims of a society which is not able to change experiences neither see the essential, because became victim of a words and sensess lacking. This kind of situation could be deeply related with this growing inhuman process. In this research we are going to analyze the Bariccos procedures, mainly in Novecento and in Castelli di rabbia, with his purpose to rescue the narrative of the art.

Nessa fase, inaugurou-se a produção capitalista, focada no emprego da máquina (que permitiu um enorme crescimento da produção com custos baixos) e controlada pela classe burguesa, além da ampliação dos mercados formais. Principalmente a partir do ano de 1980, na sociedade ocidental contemporânea, a lógica do mercado ganha prestígio, e se apresenta como solução bem sucedida para os empresários ampliarem seus negócios. Ao mesmo tempo em que a lógica econômica possibilita a ampliação do mercado e dos lucros, cada vez mais ela invade a vida social, ou seja, as esferas não mercadológicas. As mudanças ocorridas na sociedade contemporânea para atender a implantação da atual forma de capitalismo provocaram a reconfiguração das formas de sociabilidades à imagem das relações de mercado. A forma das relações sociais passa a ser predominante, uma forma de reserva onde o indivíduo é suficiente em si mesmo, não conhece o vizinho, não há envolvimento social. Para Dayrell (2011), a sociabilidade é uma dimensão central da condição juvenil. Os grupos são essenciais para os jovens. Isso porque é nos grupos que os jovens conversam, trocam ideias, paqueram e desabafam sobre os fatos acontecidos. Um espaço onde os jovens estudantes permanecem por um bom tempo é no contexto universitário, sendo assim, esse espaço se constitui num local de formação e de encontro dos grupos de amigos, além de ser um espaço permanente de construção social. Com base nesse contexto, o objetivo desse trabalho é compreender as configurações de sociabilidade dos jovens estudantes inseridos no programa de Assistência Estudantil da Universidade Federal de Juiz de Fora (UFJF). O interesse em estudar as formas de sociabilidades entre os jovens do Programa de Assistência Estudantil surgiu a partir de minha atuação como pedagoga na Coordenação de Assuntos Estudantis (CAE) da UFJF. Inserida na equipe de profissionais responsáveis pela execução da política de Assistência Estudantil, a atividade me possibilitou problematizar o modo como acontecem, no contexto institucional, as sociabilidades entre os jovens universitários participantes desse programa. A relevância desse estudo está em compreender como os jovens constroem as suas formas de se relacionar e viver em sociedade, e enfrentam suas dificuldades a partir das relações sociais estabelecidas, já que estas formas influenciam o seu modo de estar e atuar na sociedade. / With technological development, expansion of markets and industrialization, the capital-labor ratio unchanged, generating wealth for a privileged fraction of contemporary Western society, entrepreneurs. In this phase, inaugurated the capitalist production, focused on the use of the machine (which enabled an enormous increase in production with low costs) and controlled by the bourgeois class, as well as expansion of formal markets. Mainly from the year 1980, in contemporary Western society, the logic of the market gains prestige, and introduces himself as successful solution for business owners grow their businesses. While the economic logic enables market expansion and profits increasingly invades her social life, ie, the beads do not marketing. The changes in contemporary society to meet the deployment of the current form of capitalism led to the reconfiguration of the forms of sociability in the image of market relations. The form of social relations becomes predominant, a booking form where the individual is enough in itself, does not know the neighbor, no social involvement. To Dayrell (2011), sociability is a core dimension of juvenile condition. The groups are essential for young people. This is because the groups that young people talk, exchange ideas, flirt and vent about the events that took place. A space where young students stay for a long time is in the university context, so this space is a place of training and encounter groups of friends, besides being a permanent space for social construction. Based on this context, the aim of this study is to understand the settings of sociability of young students entered into the Student Assistance Program, Federal University of Juiz de Fora (UFJF). The interest in studying the forms of sociability among young Student Assistance Program grew out of my work as an educator in the Department of Student Affairs (CAE) UFJF. Inserted into the team of professionals responsible for implementing the Student Assistance Policy, the activity enabled me to question the way they happen in the institutional context, sociability among university students participating in this program. The relevance this study is to understand how young people construct their ways of relating and living in society, and face their difficulties from the established social relations, since these forms influence their way of being and acting in society.

The thesis of theoreticaly- empirical orientation is focused on voyeurism in contemporary society. Special attention is paid to the subject in a position of such voyeur and to the reflection of voyeurism by subject himself, on the case of series as artificial privacy, which is ready for voyeur's gaze. The thesis has interdisciplinary character and seeks to explore voyeurism as a society-wide phenomenon and point out its causes in contemporary society.

The thesis "Searching for today's education" deals with a dynamic relationship between contemporary postmodern society and school institution, which is the heritage of modern period. This relationship is conceived in two different ways: theoretically by the approach of postmodern philosophy (represented here by the interpretation of works by Jean-Francois Lyotard, Michel Foucault, Jacques Derrida and Roland Barthes) and practically by the evaluation of high-school seminar Understanding contemporary situation that has been held for last year students of a grammar school in Prague. After the introduction and overview of past discussion on this topic the analysis of three basic values of modern school on the concept of indoctrination and neutrality were offered. Those values are education for the truth, education for the freedom and civic education. At the same time a certain tension between the truth and freedom on one hand and the civic education on the other hand occurs. In the next chapter I try to characterize contemporary society by plurality (de/legitimisation, fragmentarisation), relativising relationship to the reality (virtualisation, technologisation, medialisation), and problematising of the subject (problem of identity and marginalisation). In the main part of the thesis I interpret the...
