In 'n streekopname in 'n gebied rondom Loolekop wat die sentrale karbonatietpyp van die Palaborwa Stollingskompleks vorm, is sowat vyftig histories bekende terreine opgespoor wat in drie groepe verdeel is op grond van die metaalbewerkings- en woonterreinoorblyfsels van die terreine. Steekproefopgrawings is op elf terreine uitgevoer ten einde meer van die aard en omvang van metaalbewerking in die navorsingsgebied, nl. die Loole-terreinkompleks vas te stel, terwyl die argeologiese oorblyfsels ook met behulp van etnohistoriese inligting aangaande vroeë baPhalaborwa-gemeenskappe geskakel is. Opgrawings toon dat yster en koper in die navorsingsgebied bewerk is met behulp van verskillende prosesse en in verskillende tipes oonde. Die bewerking van die metale toon sekere voorkomsgebiede - hoewel dit beïnvloed kon word deur die vernietigingswerk van moderne mynbedrywighede. Mondelinge oorlewering verbind die metaalbewerkers met verskillende vroeë baPhalaborwa-gemeenskappe, terwyl die groepe terreine in 'n relatiewe chronologie georden word met behulp van radiokoolstofdaterings, historiese inligting en die kenmerke van terreine. ENGLISH : In a regional survey in an area around Loolekop which represents the central carbonatite pipe of the Palaborwa Igneous Complex, about fifty historical known sites were identified and divided into three groups according to the metalworking and occupational remains on these sites. Test excavations were conducted on eleven of the sites in order to gain information on the nature and extent of metalworking in the research area, viz. the Loole site complex, while the archaeological remains were also coupled with ethnohistorical evidence regarding early baPbalaborwa communities. The excavations indicated that iron and copper had been worked in different processes and with different furnaces. The working of the metals indicate certain areas of preference - although this may have been influenced by the destruction of archaeological sites due to modern mining activities. Oral tradition couples the metalworkers with different early baPhalaborwa communities, while the different groups of sites were arranged in a relative chronology aided by radiocarbon dating, historical information and the characteristics of sites. / Thesis (DPhil)--University of Pretoria, 2013. / Anthropology and Archaeology / unrestricted

A metalsmith�s ability to turn stone into metal and mould metal into useable objects, is one of the most valuable production industries of any society. The conception of this metallurgical knowledge has been the major catalyst in the development of increasing socio-political complexity since the beginning of the Bronze Age (Childe, 1930). However, when considering the prehistory of Southeast Asia, especially Thailand, it is noted that the introduction of metallurgical activity, namely copper and bronze technology, did not engender the increase in social complexity witnessed in other regions. It is suggested that the region is anomalous in that terms and concepts developed to describe and define Bronze Ages by scholars working in other regions, lack strict analogues within Southeast Asia. Muhly (1988) has famously noted the non-compliance of Southeast Asia to previous models, "In all other corners of the Bronze Age world-China, Mesopotamia, Anatolia, the Aegean and central Europe-we find the introduction of bronze technology associated with a complex of social, political and economic developments that mark the rise of the state. Only in Southeast Asia, especially in Thailand and Vietnam, do these developments seem to be missing" (Muhly, 1988:16). This "rise of the state" is associated with the development of hierarchy, inequality, and status differentiation, evidence for which, it is argued, is most explicitly articulated in mortuary contexts (Bacus, 2006). Evidence would include an intra-site restriction in access to resources, including prestige goods, and ranking, a vertical differentiation, often related to interment wealth. Thus the introduction of metallurgical technology saw copper and other prestige goods, used to entrench authority and advertise status (Coles and Harding; 1979). Such evidence has so far been absent in Bronze Age, Southeast Asian contexts. Accordingly, the usefulness of the term "Bronze Age" for describing and defining Southeast Asian assemblages has been questioned (White, 2002). However, the Ban Non Wat discovery of wealthy Bronze Age interments, with bronze grave goods restricted to the wealthiest, has furrowed the brow of many working in the region, providing evidence to at least reconsider this stance. Despite its obvious importance in shaping Bronze Age societies around the globe, and now, significance in Northeast Thailand, very little is known of the acceptance, development, and spread of tin-bronze metallurgical techniques during the prehistory of Southeast Asia. Only a handful of investigations of archaeological sites in the region have investigated the use of metals beyond macroscopic cataloguing. Utilising an agential framework, the Ban Non Wat bronze metallurgical evidence has been investigated as an entire assemblage, from the perspective of the individual metalsmith, in order to greater understand the industry and its impact upon the society incorporating the new technology. Furthermore, mortuary data is investigated by means of wealth assessment, as an insight into social form throughout the corresponding period of adoption, development and spread of metallurgy. The bivalent study of society and technology has shed light on the development of socio-political, and economic complexity during Bronze Age Southeast Asia, and in doing so, outlined the direct impact the metalsmiths themselves had on the supply, spread and functioning of their important industry. Variabilities in grave �wealth,� have been identified at Ban Non Wat. A further situation not previously encountered in Bronze Age Southeast Asia, is the restriction of bronze goods, in death, to differentiated, wealthy individuals. The existence of such individuals suggests that society during this period was rather more complex than regional precedents would suggest. I contend that it is the introduction of metallurgy, and in particular, the nature in which it was conducted that engendered these developments. Therefore, when considering the traditional course of developing social-political complexity during the Bronze Age, it now seems that Thailand at least, is potentially, not that anomalous.

The purpose of this study was to determine the required knowledge and skills of mobile home metalworkers in the Dallas-Fort Worth area as compared to the Industrial Arts metalworking curriculum presented in Texas Education Agency, Bulletin 615. Items of significance in Chapter IV appear in findings, conclusions, and recommendations. The "use of basic hand tools" and "safety concepts" were consistently emphasized and required by manufacturing firms. It was found that educational requirements were quite often "some high school" or less. It was found that Industrial Arts metalworking curriculum was closely related to required knowledge and skills of mobile home metalworkers. It was recommended that Industrial Arts course work be extended into lower levels of education.

No decorrer destes anos, num processo que se inaugurou em contextos anteriores, é possível observar a formação de uma classe operária no Brasil, em virtude da ampliação do parque industrial nacional. No sudeste brasileiro, sobretudo, na região metropolitana de São Paulo, inúmeras indústrias multinacionais da cadeia produtiva do automóvel se instalaram nas cidades do ABC paulista, atraídas por um mercado consumidor com demanda reprimida, por amplos incentivos alfandegários e creditícios dados pelo governo brasileiro, bem como, por uma volumosa oferta de mão-de-obra nas cidades abastecida pelo êxodo rural. Esse contexto histórico foi terreno fértil à gênese do discurso ideológico nacional desenvolvimentista, segundo o qual, numa perspectiva evolucionista, o Brasil superaria a condição de subdesenvolvimento através da participação do Estado, dos capitais privados nacionais e dos capitais estrangeiros. Ideologicamente, o tripé - ordem, progresso e soberania - daria sustentação ao pacto social que se pretendia construir entre as classes sociais. No processo de urbanização e industrialização, nos moldes fordistas/tayloristas, inseridos no contexto de modernização da nação, os sindicatos operários e os Partidos disputaram os rumos da classe trabalhadora no Brasil, a qual se formou como um novo mosaico étnicolregional, composto, sobretudo, por migrantes nacionais vindos das zonas rurais do país. Por meio da história oral e da memória, este estudo buscou analisar as experiências e as estratégias de resistência de quatorze ex-metalúrgicos, ao longo do processo de re-enraizamento vivenciado com a migração para as cidades de São Paulo e ABC paulista, no interior do mundo do trabalho de 1954 a 1964. A análise das memórias dos sujeitos desta história permitiu perceber que esse processo de ressocialização vivido pelo migrante rural, esteve marcado tanto pela sujeição aos valores dominantes da sociedade de destino, bem como pelas pequenas recusas à modemidade brasileira. Fincando raizes em terra nova, esses migrantes-operários depararam-se com as engrenagens da fábrica fordistaltaylorista instalatla no Brasil, na vivência de um medo difícil de definir e de um tempo que se tomou produto raro. No interior dessas relações sociais marcadas pelo trabalho estranhado/alienado, os depoentes deste estudo, concebidos como sujeitos ativos 'sob as condições objetivas dadas, criaram práticas sociais de resistência às formas de opressão vivenciadas no chão de fábrica, e fora dele. Levando-se em consideração não só o cenário macroestrutural, mas, principalmente, a dinâmica subjetiva e simbólica do trabalho, a análise das memórias de ex-operários, que se empregaram em diferentes indústrias metalúrgicas da cadeia produtiva de automóveis, lançaram luzes sobre as relações conflitivas da vida cotidiana no mundo moderno, evidenciando uma contínua tentativa destes sujeitos de transpor a condição de máquinas de trabalho / Abstract: In Brazil, during the twentieth century, from 1954 to 1964, the country went through at least three crisis: political, social, and economical. These were marked by Getúlio Vargas' suicide in 1954, by Jânio Quadros' resignation in 1961, and by the military coup in 1964. In the course ofthese years, in a process that started in previous contexts, it is possible to observe the formation of a working class in Brazil, due to the enlargement of the national industrial park. In the southeast of Brazil, above ali, in the metropolitan region of São Paulo, a countless number of multinacional industries from the automobile productive chain have settled in the ABC Paulista cities, attracted by a consumer market with a repressed demand, by broad custom incentives and credit given by the Brazilian govemment, as well as, by a sizeable labour offer in the cities supplied by the rural exodus . This historical context was a fertile terrain for the genesis of the national-<1evelopmental ideologicaldiscourse, according to which, in an evolutionary perspective, Brazil would overcome the underdeveloped condition through the participation of the state, of the national private capital, and of the foreign capital. Ideologically, the tripod-order, progresso and sovereignty-would give support to the social pact that was intended to be built among the social classes. In the process of urbanization and industrialization, in the FordITaylor pattem, inserted in the modemization context of the nation, the unions and the political parties disputed the course of the working class in Brazil, which was formed as a new ethnical-regional mosaic, made up of, above ali, national migrants coming from the rural areas of the country. Through the oral history" and the memory, this study tried to analyse the experiences and the strategies of resistence of fourteen ex-metalworkers, through the adaption process experienced with the migration to the cities of São Paulo and ABC Paulista, inside the labour world from 1954 to 1964. The analysis of the memories from the subjects of this history allowed me to notice that this resocialization process experienced by the rural migrant, was marked as much by the subjection to the dominant values from the society as by the insignificant refusals to the Brazilian modemity. Establishing roots in the new land, these migrant workers carne across the mechanisms of the Fordffaylor factory installed in Brazil, living with a fear difficult to define, and time which became arare product. In the core of these social relations marked by the strange/alienated work, the witnesses from this study, conceived as active subjects under the oDjective conditions given, created social practices of resistence to the forms of oppression experienced in and out of the factories. T aking into consi~eration, not only the macro-structural scenery, but, mainly, the subjective and symbolic dynamics of work, the analysis of the memories from ex-workers, who worked for different metallurgical industries from the automobile productive chain, throwed lights on the conflicting relations of the everyday life in the modem world, showing a continuous attempt from these subjects to overcome the condition of working machines / Mestrado / Mestre em Sociologia

Os dois jornais escolhidos como fonte de pesquisa foram o ABCD Jornale Folha de S. Paulo.A escolha destas greves como foco do estudo se deu devido a sua repercussão na mídia e seus desdobramentos por parte de seus lideres na criação de um partido político e uma Central dos Trabalhadores. O jornal A Folha,que defendeuo regime civil militar em seu nascimento, será um opositor das legislações criadas e busca romper com o regime imposto, porém, sempre mantendo uma postura legalista. O ABCD Jornalterá um caminho distinto, pois alguns de seus idealizadores iniciaram sua luta contra a ditadura imposta no Brasil com ações clandestinas e com a formação de grupo guerrilheiro. Após suas prisões este grupo iniciou uma reaproximação do movimento sindical, denunciando as mazelas sofridas pelos trabalhadores através do jornal que construíram o ABCD Jornal. O ABCD Jornal teve, assim como a Folha, uma postura legalista, cada um interpretando a lei sob seu ponto e vista

O objetivo específico é analisar a prática concreta dessas entidades e seus resultados na defesa dos trabalhadores de suas bases. O objetivo geral da dissertação é, por sua vez, oferecer, ao debate sobre o sindicalismo brasileiro nos anos 90 e 2000, elementos empíricos e uma discussão teórica sobre a prática sindical ¿não propositiva¿, estes relativamente ausentes na produção nacional sobre a questão sindical. Os resultados da pesquisa apontam para a positividade das táticas e da estratégia das entidades estudadas, cujo norte foi a resistência à qualquer redução de direitos, a manutenção de um discurso classista e da crítica sistemática ao neoliberalismo, além da ênfase na organização e na formação política dos trabalhadores. Os resultados positivos foram verificados empiricamente a partir da análise dos acordos coletivos e da observação da manutenção de índices significativos de sindicalização. A esses, soma-se a negação da premissa segundo a qual ¿não há alternativa¿ à acomodação e moderação do sindicalismo brasileiro imposta pela conjuntura desfavorável aos trabalhadores, que suporte a pressão e o poder ¿dos mercados¿. Por outro lado, os resultados apontam também para as dificuldades colocadas aos sindicatos estudados, que decorreram, em grande medida, do processo de aprofundamento da exploração capitalista e do aumento do desemprego e da precarização do trabalho com a implementação de novas técnicas de gestão e do avanço das políticas neoliberais, cujos resultados mais visíveis foram: a dificuldade de realizar mobilizações significativas e de incorporar novos militantes, em especial os mais jovens, a falta de rotatividade da diretoria e a impossibilidade de refrear a tendência à burocratização das entidades. Enfim, a limitação da ação sindical ao campo da resistência / Abstract: The purpose of this dissertation is to exam the ¿CUT leftwing¿, through the analysis of the tree most important representatives of this section of Brazilian unionism: the Metal Trade Union of Campinas, of Limeira and of São José dos Campos. The main purpose is to analyze the concrete practices of these unions and its results in the defense of workers. The general objective is, on turn, to offer, to the academic debate about Brazilian unionism, some empirical aspects and a theorical analysis about the ¿non propositive¿ union practice, relatively absent in the national literature on unionism. The research¿s results point out the benefits of the strategy and tactics of the studied unions whose objectives were the resistance to any right's reduction, the maintenance of class perspective, a strong anti-neoliberal perspective and the emphasis on worker's organization and political training. Those gains were empirically verified, specially, through the analysis of collective bargaining agreements and the maintenance of a significant union density. In addition, there is the refusal of the idea that ¿there is no alternative¿ to the unions¿ adjustment and moderation caused by the unfavorable worker's situation. Besides the research results also point out the difficulties posed to the leftist union¿s leaders by the deepening of capitalist exploitation processes and the increasing unemployment and work degradation fostered by new management techniques and the advance of neoliberal politics. These difficulties are related to organizing significant mobilizations and to have new militants, specially younger workers joining in, the lack of union¿s leaders regular rotation and the impossibility to avoid union¿s burocratization tendencies. In short, the limitation of union¿s action to the field of resistance / Mestrado / Relações de Trabalho e Organização de Interesses / Mestre em Ciência Política
