This thesis discusses the ways of how physically handicapped fans of Game of Thrones, a television series, identify with characters like or dislike and answers the questions how physically handicapped fans choose who they favour and who they don't, how they identify with them and how is their interpretation linked to their own experience of being handicapped and how their social reality influences how they perceive the media reality. The research reveals orthodoxies of power of the dominating ideology of being fit, against which "the ill" and "powerless", define themselves, albeit subconsciously; it describes the difficulties, connected with their handicap, which they project into the series, behaviour strategies resulting from this phenomenon and how the world around interferes; and, last but not least, it confirms sociological premises of deepening empathy on the basis of different dimensions of one's own identities and experience. The qualitative research of audience is based on semi- structured interviews and deploys the interpretative approach, while the results are coded using the method of anchored theory.

The thesis deals with specific emphases of special educational support provided to people with severe mental and multiple disabilities in their adult age. The aim of the thesis is to determine what the specifics of therapeutic support for adults with a severe handicap are, and how professionals adapt their specialized care to the fact that their clients are adults. To obtain the data for the purposes of the thesis, a qualitatively oriented research has been conducted, using semi-structured interviews with teachers and social service workers who have been involved with severely disabled adults for a long time. Data has been analyzed by methods of open and axial coding, which are part of the grounded theory. Other methods of data collection utilized for thesis processing include content analysis of specialized literature, content analysis of service users' documentation, and participant observation. The data obtained suggests that professional support of adults with mental and multiple disabilities must take into account both the specific level of development needs of these individuals, and their physical age. A significant component of the professional care is creating a relationship to the disabled person as an equal partner.

It talks about the process of inclusion of the disabled people in the Job market in Mossor?-RN, bringing for the academic debate relevant thematic for the Brazilian society, for the profession of Social Service and similar areas and for the people with deficiency. It has the objective to apprehend the determiners that make possible the process of the disabled people's inclusion in the Job market in Mossor?, having as parameter the National Politics for the Integration of People Bearers of Deficiency. The critical theoretical perspective is backed in Marx's ideas for the understanding concerning the work, as well as in Pochamann, concerning the job market, regarding the exclusion/inclusion category is based in Martins, Yasbek and Sposati and on deficiency in the National Politics for the Integration of the Disabled People. The research is of qualitative nature and it took as subjects 26 (twenty-six) people, being 09 (nine) people with deficiency, inserted in the formal job and regulated market, and 17 (seventeen) managers of private companies and public institutions of the city of Mossor?-RN. For the collection of data we used techniques of nonsystemic observation, semi-structured interview and documental analysis. The results of the research mark that any modality of the human workforce used in the current context, they are functional to the capitalism and they move forward towards exploration, alienation and subordination of the work to the capital; the National Politics for the Integration of the People with Deficiency expresses and reproduces the contradictory dynamics of the class society, it reflects the neo liberal shades through the selectivity and of the articulation among the federated beings and organizations of the civil society for its operational system; there is a misproportion between the percentages of the quotas and the amount of people with deficiency inserted in the job market, just corresponding to a tiny numeric magnitude; the developed activities are of low social status and it is expressive the amount of workers that receives between one and two minimum wages. These data drive us to infer that the mentioned politics make possible, partly, the inclusion of the disabled people in the job market, though, such inclusion is executed in the selective or focused dimensions, marginal, precarious and unstable / Este trabalho foi desenvolvido no ?mbito do Programa de P?s-Gradua??o em Servi?o Social da Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte. Trata do processo de inclus?o de pessoas com defici?ncia no Mercado de Trabalho em Mossor?-RN, trazendo para o debate acad?mico tem?tica relevante para a sociedade brasileira, para a profiss?o de Servi?o Social e ?reas afins e para as pessoa com defici?ncia. Objetiva apreender os determinantes que viabilizam o processo de inclus?o das pessoas com defici?ncia no Mercado de Trabalho em Mossor?, tendo como par?metro a Pol?tica Nacional para a Integra??o de Pessoas Portadoras de Defici?ncia. A perspectiva te?rica cr?tica que perpassa este trabalho respalda-se nas id?ias de Marx para a compreens?o acerca do trabalho, bem como em Pochmann, Antunes acerca do mercado de trabalho, a respeito da categoria exclus?o/inclus?o fundamenta-se em Martins, Yasbek e Sposati e sobre defici?ncia na Pol?tica Nacional para a Integra??o das Pessoas Portadoras de Defici?ncia. A pesquisa ? de natureza qualitativa e tomou como sujeitos investigativos 26 (vinte e seis) pessoas, sendo 09 (nove) pessoas com defici?ncia, inseridas no mercado de trabalho formal e regulamentado, e 17 (dezessete) gestores de empresas privadas e institui??es p?blicas da cidade de Mossor?-RN. Para a coleta de dados utilizamos t?cnicas de observa??o assistem?tica, entrevista semi-estruturada e an?lise documental. Os resultados da pesquisa assinalam que sejam quais forem as modalidades de utiliza??o da for?a de trabalho humano no atual contexto, elas s?o preponderantemente funcionais ao capitalismo e avan?am em dire??o a explora??o, aliena??o e subordina??o do trabalho ao capital; a Pol?tica Nacional para a Integra??o das Pessoas com Defici?ncia expressa e reproduz a din?mica contradit?ria da sociedade de classe, reflete os matizes neoliberais atrav?s da seletividade e da articula??o entre os entes federados e organiza??es da sociedade civil para a sua operacionaliza??o; h? uma desproporcionalidade entre os percentuais das cotas e a quantidade de pessoas com defici?ncia inseridas no mercado de trabalho, correspondendo apenas a uma ?nfima magnitude num?rica; as atividades desenvolvidas s?o de baixo status social e ? expressiva a quantidade de trabalhadores que recebe entre um a dois sal?rios m?nimos. Estes dados conduzem-nos a inferir que a citada pol?tica viabiliza, em parte, a inclus?o das pessoas com defici?ncia no mercado de trabalho, uma vez que, tal inclus?o efetiva-se nas dimens?es seletiva ou focalizada, marginal, prec?ria e inst?vel

This work has the objective analysis about the treatment of the conventionality control laws in the Brazilian and Argentine legal scenario. As we search problem is to analyze what the hierarchy of international human rights treaties entered into both legal systems and, in result, analyze the existence or not of vertical compatibility and material between the laws governing the retirement of people with disabilities in each of these countries on the International Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. Regarding methodology, we chose to use the deductive method of approach, based on the study of the concepts brought by the International Convention, the Brazilian legislation and the Argentine legislation with the aim of achieving the ability to analyze it in everyday cases from the application of conventionality control theories. Still, regarding the method of procedure, because of the need precisely to point out that the similarities and dissimilarities between the domestic laws of each country in relation to international rule. In this way, it was noticed that lies a discrepancy regarding the person of significance with disabilities in each of these standards, since the international treaty brings an extremely broad definition of disabled person in order to seal the right to a large section of society that because of medical, social, educational, vocational, psychological or cultural barriers are outside the social life and the labor market. In contrast to this, Brazilian law restricts the finding of disability to cases of medical and social order, although the Argentine law restricts only to medical disability cases. Such existing conceptual discrepancy between the rules affect too much a large part of society, since, acting in such a way, one is undeniably excluding the legal protection a large portion of society that fails to include socially and professionally because of issues beyond the mere medical or social look. Therefore, it shows extremely important study with the aim of triggering the incompatibility of existing laws can be act to modify the current state of affairs and, by consequence, to include a greater number of individuals in the legislative seal in strict observance of the auspices of the human rights of persons with disabilities / A presente dissertação tem como escopo a análise acerca do tratamento dado ao controle de convencionalidade das leis no cenário jurídico brasileiro e argentino. O problema se pesquisa reside em analisar qual a hierarquia dos tratados internacionais de direitos humanos inseridos em ambos os ordenamentos jurídicos e, em virtude disso, analisar a existência, ou não, de compatibilidade vertical e material entre as leis que regulamentam a aposentadoria das pessoas com deficiência em cada um desses países em relação à Convenção Internacional sobre os Direitos da Pessoa com Deficiência. No que tange à metodologia empregada, optou-se pela utilização do método de abordagem dedutivo, partindo do estudo dos conceitos trazidos pela Convenção Internacional, pela legislação brasileira e pela legislação argentina com o fito de lograr a possibilidade de analisá-la em casos do cotidiano, a partir da aplicação das teorias do controle de convencionalidade. Ainda, em relação ao método de procedimento, em virtude da necessidade, justamente, de apontar quais as semelhanças e dessemelhanças existentes entre as legislações domésticas de cada país em relação à norma internacional. Nesse propósito, percebeu-se que reside uma discrepância no que tange à significação de pessoa com deficiência em cada uma dessas normas, uma vez que o tratado internacional apresenta um conceito extremamente amplo de pessoa com deficiência, a fim de chancelar o direito de uma grande parcela da sociedade que, em virtude de barreiras de ordem médica, social, educacional, profissional, psicológica ou cultural, se encontram à margem do convívio social e do mercado de trabalho. Em contraponto a isso, a legislação brasileira restringe a constatação da deficiência para casos de ordem médica e social, conquanto a legislação argentina restringe a mesma somente aos casos de deficiência médica. Tal discrepância conceitual existente entre as normas prejudica em demasia uma grande parcela da sociedade, uma vez que, agindo de tal forma, está-se, inegavelmente, excluindo da proteção legal uma grande parcela da sociedade que não consegue se incluir social e profissionalmente em virtude de questões que ultrapassam o mero olhar clínico ou social. Portanto, mostra-se de fundamental importância o estudo, no intuito de, deflagrando a incompatibilidade de leis existentes, possa-se agir no sentido de modificar o atual estado de coisas e, por consequência disso, incluir um maior número de indivíduos na chancela legislativa, em estrita observância aos auspícios dos direitos humanos das pessoas com deficiência.

Two independents groups were arranged, each one with parents of users from a different institution, both with equal number of participants. The data for characterization and verification of eventual changes in the repertoires of the participants were obtained by means of structuralized interviews individual. Introduced for one group in a week and for the other in two weeks later, the program was applied in five sessions with each group. The design used was before and after for each group. All the changes observed in the accounts of the participants of the two groups, from the exposition to the program, they had been of unfavorable for favorable in terms of sexual development of mental disabled people, in relation the aspects as: a) capacity of the mental disable suns and daughters of having sexual wishes, to understand sexual issues, to control their sexual manifestations and to construct affective relationships; b) incentive the social contacts amplification and social integrate; c) compatibility of the treatment given to family members which presents mental deficiency considering their age and emotional maturity, incentive the autonomy and independence; d) compromising of the family in the sexual education and offer reports about sexuality and constraint to deal with sexual issues; e) acceptance or repression to sexual manifestation and recognition of their suns and daughters mental disabled rights of exercise the sexuality. The changes had varied in degree and distribution of a group for another one and inside of the same group, for different people. Age of the daughters, initial repertoire and characteristics of the institution are some possible variables that can be related to these differences among participants and between groups. / Considerando a importância da família no processo de educação sexual e para a promoção do desenvolvimento da pessoa com deficiência mental, o objetivo desse trabalho foi identificar possíveis variáveis que possam ter influenciado as mudanças nos repertórios conceituais e de condutas de oito pais de adolescentes e adultos com deficiência mental, a partir de um Programa de Orientação Sexual que incluiu informações sobre conceitos e condutas em relação à sexualidade de pessoas com deficiência mental. O Programa de Orientação Sexual foi desenvolvido por meio de atividades e discussões norteadas por aspectos considerados relevantes constituídos por condições facilitadoras para a manifestação de dúvidas e angústias por parte dos participantes, inclusão de determinantes sociais na análise de situações que envolvam sexualidade, condições facilitadoras da identificação de valores e condutas presentes e influentes em situações que envolvam sexualidade, oferta de situações práticas /concretas envolvendo sexualidade e deficiência mental para exame pelos participantes e condições favorecedoras de exame da influência de valores e condutas dos pais sobre comportamentos dos filhos com deficiência mental. Foram compostos dois grupos independentes, cada um com pais de usuários de uma instituição diferente, ambos com igual número de participantes. Os dados para caracterização e verificação de eventuais mudanças de repertórios foram obtidos por meio de entrevistas estruturadas individuais. Com duas semanas de diferença para início, o programa foi aplicado em cinco sessões com cada grupo. Foi utilizado um delineamento do tipo antes e depois para cada grupo. Todas as mudanças observadas nos relatos dos participantes dos dois grupos, a partir da exposição ao programa, foram de desfavoráveis para favoráveis em termos de desenvolvimento da sexualidade da pessoa com deficiência mental, em relação a aspectos como: a) capacidade dos filhos com deficiência mental terem desejos sexuais, entender questões relativas à sexualidade, controlar suas manifestações sexuais e estabelecer vínculos afetivos; b) incentivo à ampliação dos contatos sociais e integração social; c) forma de tratamento dispensado ao membro com deficiência mental, em termos de compatibilidade com sua idade e maturidade emocional, estímulo ao desenvolvimento da autonomia e independência; d) comprometimento da família na educação sexual e oferta de informações sobre sexualidade e constrangimento ao lidar com questões envolvendo sexualidade; e) aceitação ou repressão às manifestações sexuais e reconhecimento do direito de seus filhos com deficiência mental exercer a sexualidade. As mudanças variaram em grau e distribuição de um grupo para outro, e dentro do mesmo grupo, para pessoas diferentes. Idade dos filhos, repertório inicial e características da instituição são algumas das variáveis que podem estar relacionadas a estas diferenças entre participantes e entre grupos.

Objetivos: descrever os valores de freqüência cardíaca (FC) e os níveis das concentrações de lactato [La] sanguíneo, verificar o comportamento da curva da freqüência cardíaca dos dançarinos cadeirantes durante uma competição de DECR, comparar a carga física entre as rodadas e a resposta cardíaca específica entre as danças Samba, Rumba e Jive. E por último, comparar a FCMpico (freqüência cardíaca máxima de pico) obtida pelos atletas na competição, frente a FCMcal (freqüência cardíaca máxima calculada) prevista para a idade. Métodos: Participaram deste estudo 9 (nove) atletas cadeirantes com deficiência (quatro com lesão medular, três com seqüela de poliomielite e um com espinha bífida), sendo quatro homens e cinco mulheres, com média de 34,6±10,5 anos de idade, 53,7±9 kg de massa corporal, 4,1±2,4 anos de prática e que competiram durante o VII Campeonato Brasileiro de DECR. Para o registro da FC utilizou-se o conjunto de cardiofrequencímetros durante toda a competição, já para a medidas das [La] foram realizadas cinco a representação gráfica da curva da FC demonstrou-se compatível com atividade física intermitente, a média da carga física das rodadas foi de 89,9%FCpico não havendo diferença significativa entre as mesmas. Em relação aos estilos de dança, houve diferença significativa de intensidade, sendo o Jive mais intenso (p≥0,05) do que o Samba e a Rumba não havendo diferença entre essas duas. A média da FCMpico (189 bpm) foi maior (p≥0,05) do que a média da FCMcal (165,3 bpm). Em relação aos níveis de [La] a maioria dos atletas avaliados atingiu valores de pico entre 4,2 e 6,2 mM. Conclusão: a DECR é uma modalidade com características intermitentes, a média de intensidade durante as rodadas é compatível com uma atividade de alta intensidade e muito provavelmente os atletas atingem a FCM durante a competição. / The Wheelchair Sport Dance (WSD) it is an adapted sport modality of the ballroom dance practiced in Brazil since 2001, however, no there are studies that approach the physiologic answers to the effort that the athletes/dancers submit in a competition of WSD. Purpose: to describe the values of heart rate (HR) and the levels of the lactate concentrations [La] sanguine, to verify the behavior of the curve of the HR of the dancers wheelchairs during a competition of WSD, to compare the physical load between the rounds and the specific heart answer among the dances Samba, Rumba and Jive. It is last, to compare HRpeak (heart rate peak maxim) obtained by the athletes in the competition, front HRMcal (maximum heart rate calculated) foreseen for the age. Methods: They participated in this study 9 (nine) athletes wheelchairs with disabled (four with spinal cord injury, three with poliomyelitis sequel and one with bifid spine), being four men and five women, with average 34,6±10,5 years , 53,7±9 kg of body mass, 4,1±2,4 years of practice and that competed during the VII Brazilian Championship of WSD. For the registration of HR the Polar Team Systeam was used during all the competition, already for to measured of the [La] five were accomplished. The graphic representation of the curve of HR was demonstrated compatible with intermittent physical activity, the average of the physical load of the rounds was of 89,9%HRpeak not having significant difference among the same ones. In relation to the dance styles, there was significant difference of intensity, being most intense Jive than the Samba and the Rumba not having difference among those two. The average of HRMpeak (189 bpm) it was larger (p?0,05) than the average of HRMcal (165,3 bpm). In relation to the levels of [La] most of the appraised athletes reached pick values between 4,2 and 6,2 mM. Conclusion: WSD is a modality with intermittent characteristics, the average intensity during the rounds is compatible with an activity of high intensity and very probably the athletes reach HRMduring the competition.
