This thesis argues that the British Public Health movement did not begin in 1842 with Edwin Chadwick's publication, Report on the Sanitary Conditions of the Labouring Population of Great Britain (1842), or in 1848, with the subsequent passage of the Public Health Act. The beginning of the public health movement was instead the product of local initiatives such as the Manchester Board of Health, administered not by central government, but by members of the local community supported by predominantly philanthropic funding. The Manchester movement predated Chadwick's efforts by at least half a century and bore a greater resemblance to the modern idea of an organized public health system than that advanced by Chadwick and his contemporaries. This is because the Manchester movement emphasized not only those sanitary ideas ascribed to Chadwick but also included a broader spectrum of public health measures, including but not limited to ; preventative medicine, occupational health, and the reduction of contagious diseases. / by Jennifer L.

O período é marcado pela ideologia positivista que norteava os políticos que governavam o Estado e por consequência o município. Por conseguinte, analisamos a posição estatal em relação à doença, bem como os seus esforços em combatê-la, além de estabelecer por método quantitativo o perfil dos indivíduos que morriam por tuberculose no período, bem como também os tratamentos utilizados. Foram utilizados neste trabalho relatórios da Diretoria de Higiene e do Presidente da Província e do Estado, livros de registros de óbitos da Santa Casa de Misericórdia de Porto Alegre e do Cemitério da Tristeza, Relatórios dos Provedores da Santa Casa e jornais da época. / This master thesis has as object of study tuberculosis in Porto Alegre in the period from 1896 to 1924, through a history of health and disease view. The period is marked by the positivist ideology that guided the politicians who ruled the State and consequently the municipality. Therefore, we analyze the state position regarding the disease and its efforts to combat it, besides establishing, through a quantitative method, the profile of individuals who died from tuberculosis in the period, and also the treatments. They were used in this work Board reports of Hygiene and President of the Province and the state, books of death records of the Santa Casa de Porto Alegre, Cemitério da Tristeza, reports by the providers of Santa Casa and newspapers of the time.

This thesis explores the utility of the conflated term “colonial medicine” by drawing on events during an historical outbreak of amebic dysentery that occurred on several Indian Reservations near Loon Lake, Saskatchewan, during the 1960s and ‘70s, including a series of government-sponsored drug trials conducted to stem the outbreak. Largely devoid of the racialized notions characterizing primary documents used by previous scholars of ‘colonial medicine’, the medical journal articles, government memorandums, and letters written by physicians in connection with the outbreak and trials reveal their immersion in ‘la clinique’, or an anatomo-clinical discourse similar to what theorist Michel Foucault described in Birth of the Clinic. Conversely, conversations with Loon Lake area community members on the subjects of the outbreak and trials reveal their multiplex and nuanced reactions to medical and colonial discourses. Arguably, then, when writing about past events, historians should weigh ‘medicine’ and colonial discourse separately. Essential methodological consideration was given to the Foucauldian concept of ‘disinterring’ popular knowledge. Drawing on Foucault’s edited works Power/Knowledge and I, Pierre Riviére, the subjugated knowledges of Aboriginal community members, physicians, sanitation workers, and government employees gleaned through interviews and text are contrasted as per his example in these works with the false functionalism of ‘scientificity’. Moreover, when considered in tandem, these subjugated knowledges illustrate a ‘structural violence’, following anthropologist Paul Farmer’s methodology for describing such phenomena in Pathologies of Power. Overarchingly, they obscure the paradigmatic dichotomies (‘doctor’/‘patient’, ‘patient’/the healthy person, ‘colonizer’/‘colonized’, ‘oppressor’/‘oppressed’) espoused in medical, colonial, and even post-colonial discourses. This understanding forces the reflexive recognition that–if we accept rhetorician Christopher Bracken’s assertion in Magical Criticism there is a recourse to savage philosophy within academia–what we say as historians has consequence beyond discourse, possibly creating new ‘subjects’ in a Foucauldian, disciplined society.

Recorrentes suicídios de escravos, de mulheres, de comerciantes e de outros personagens da sociedade fluminense suscitaram variadas reflexões entre os intelectuais brasileiros, que tentaram explicar e combater as causas deste fenômeno que contrariava a vontade de Deus e a natureza humana. Tais reflexões serão objeto de estudo desta pesquisa, que procura examinar as formas de descrição do fenômeno da morte voluntária, de 1835 a 1895, a partir de dois discursos: o da medicina e o da literatura. Nesse período, com a criação da Faculdade de Medicina do Rio de Janeiro (1832) e o desenvolvimento de uma literatura preocupada com a educação e formação moral do público leitor, houve uma produção regular de teses médicas, notícias, crônicas e romances que denunciavam a recorrência de suicídios e tentavam demarcar as condutas e as determinações sociais que incidiam sobre esta prática, tais como a loucura, a jogatina, os desarranjos financeiros, as paixões desregradas, a incredulidade entre outras expressões dos “vícios” que passaram a “corromper” a sociedade com o advento da vida urbana e moderna. Assim, a hipótese que guiará esta pesquisa é que a medicina e a literatura, na medida em que partilhavam o interesse de construir o Brasil em termos modernos, urbanos e civilizados, descreveram a morte voluntária como um problema de ordem moral que deveria ser combatido no âmbito das paixões e costumes por meio da educação. Dessa forma, tais discursos adquiriram um caráter prescritivo da vida social fluminense, trazendo à tona os valores e sentidos construídos por essa sociedade para orientar a vida de seus membros / From the mid of 1830s and throughout the nineteenth century, the problem of voluntary death filled many pages of newspapers and periodicals circulated in the city of Rio de Janeiro. Recurring suicides of slaves, women, traders and other characters from the Rio de Janeiro society gave rise to varied reflections among Brazilian intellectuals who have tried to explain and combat the causes of this phenomenon which contradicted the will of God and human nature. Such reflections will be the subject of study of this research, which seeks to examine the ways of description of the voluntary death phenomenon, from 1835 to 1895, from two speeches: the medicine and literature. In this period, with the creation of the Faculty of Medicine of Rio de Janeiro (1832) and the development of concerned literature with moral education and training of the reading public, there is a regular production of medical theses, news, chronicles and novels they denounced the recurrence of suicides and attempted to demarcate the behaviors and social determinations that were focused on this practice, such as madness, gambling, financial breakdowns, the unruly passions, unbelief among other expressions of "vices" that became "corrupt" society with the advent of modern urban life. Thus, the hypothesis that guides this study is that the medicine and the literature to the extent that they shared interest to build Brazil in modern, urban and civilized terms described voluntary death as a moral issue that should be fought within the passions and customs through education. Thus, these speeches acquired a prescriptive character of Rio de Janeiro social life, bringing up the values and meanings constructed by the company to guide the lives of its members. / FAPESP: 2015/01094-4

The Psychiatric Reform Movement in the Amazon began in the late 1970s by a group of psychiatrists and psychiatric professionals Cologne Eduardo Ribeiro Hospital, which were inspired by the ideas of the Psychiatric Reform. Ideas that made possible the emergence of a Mental Health Policy in Brazil, from the questioning of the crazy forms of treatment and a proposal of de-institutionalization, culminating in Law Paulo Delgado project in 1989. Law that redirects the mental health care, focusing on offering treatment in community-based services, and provides for the protection and rights of people with mental disorders, but does not establish clear mechanisms for the phasing out of asylums.In Amazonas, state law No. 3177 was enacted only in 2007 and still did not succeed in ensuring the implementation of substitute services in sufficient numbers to meet the demand for mental health, especially in the capital of Manaus. The methodology used was documentary research and oral history. Interviews were conducted with managers and professionals who work or worked in the mental health of the Amazon. The paper is organized in the form of two papers: The first is devoted to the survey of the history of the Mental Health Policy Amazonas State since the late nineteenth century and seeks to describe the context of the Mental Health Policy in Brazil and in the Amazon Movement of the period of psychiatric reform until the publication of Psychiatric Reform Law. The second focuses on the description and analysis of the maintenance process of the Implementation Policy Psychosocial Support Centers - CAPS and other alternative services as well as in the psychiatric deinstitutionalization process in the state, the identification of the main actors and their strategies in the execution of Psychiatric Reform in the Amazon. The two articles bring elements to the understanding of mental health policy and the structuring of the psychiatric reform in the state. We conclude that the history of mental health in the state is the product of the relationship and conflicts between the actors and the management of policy, bringing losses for the effective realization of the psychiatric reform. / O trabalho tem como objetivo analisar historicamente a estruturação da Política de Saúde Mental no Amazonas, tendo como foco a Reforma Psiquiátrica ocorrida principalmente em Manaus. O Movimento da Reforma Psiquiátrica no Amazonas iniciou no final da década de 1970, por um grupo de psiquiatras e profissionais do Hospital Colônia Eduardo Ribeiro, que se inspiraram nas ideias da Reforma Psiquiátrica. Ideias que possibilitaram o surgimento de uma Política de Saúde Mental no Brasil, a partir do questionamento das formas de tratamento da loucura e de uma proposta de desinstitucionalização, que culminaram no projeto de Lei Paulo Delgado em 1989. Lei que redireciona a assistência em saúde mental, privilegiando o oferecimento de tratamento em serviços de base comunitária, e dispõe sobre a proteção e os direitos das pessoas com transtornos mentais, mas não institui mecanismos claros para a progressiva extinção dos manicômios. No Amazonas, a lei estadual de saúde mental n° 3.177 só foi sancionada no ano de 2007 e ainda não logrou êxito em garantir a implantação de serviços substitutivos em número suficiente para atender a demanda em saúde mental, principalmente na capital de Manaus. A metodologia utilizada foi de pesquisa documental e de história oral. Foram realizadas entrevistas com gestores e profissionais que atuam ou atuaram na saúde mental do Amazonas. O trabalho está organizado na forma de dois artigos científicos: O primeiro é dedicado ao levantamento da história da Política de Saúde Mental do Estado do Amazonas desde o final do século XIX e busca descrever o contexto da Política de Saúde Mental no Brasil e no Amazonas no período do Movimento da Reforma Psiquiátrica até a publicação da Lei da Reforma Psiquiátrica. O segundo centra-se na descrição e análise do processo de constituição da Política de Implantação dos Centros de Apoio Psicossocial - CAPS e demais serviços substitutivos, bem como no processo de desinstitucionalização psiquiátrica no estado, na identificação dos principais atores e suas estratégias na efetivação da Reforma Psiquiátrica no Amazonas. Os dois artigos trazem elementos para a compreensão da Política de Saúde Mental e a estruturação da Reforma Psiquiátrica no estado. Concluímos que a história da saúde mental no Estado é produto da relação e conflitos entre os atores e a gestão da política, trazendo prejuízos para a efetiva realização da reforma psiquiátrica

The purpose of this study was to (1) assess the reliability and validity of anger/hostility measures, (2) examine the relationship between anger/hostility and other negative emotions, and (3) examine the relationship between anger/hostility and health history. Sixty-five subjects were given the Buss Durkee Hostility Inventory (BDHI), the State-Trait Anger Expression Inventory (STAXI), the Profile of Mood States pomsS), the Clinical Analysis Questionnaire (CAQ), the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI), the Health and Wellness Attitude Inventory (HWAI), and a health questionnaire designed to provide information about past disease and alcohol/drug use. Overall, the BDHI and POMS displayed good test-retest reliability. All six of the global indices of anger/hostility intercorrelated at a significant level, thus demonstrating good concurrent validity. The six global measures of anger/hostility also correlated at a significant level with other negative emotions.
