The realization of collective weddings, in Maputo City, is the result of a social intervention project by the Municipal Council with the aim of supporting couples who wish to enter into marriage, but do not do so due to lack of financial resources, cultural and social issues linked to stigmatization, excessive bureaucracy, lack of civil registration bodies necessary for the legalization of marriages close to communities and lack of knowledge of the law. The project follows on from reports about women who, due to the lack of legalization of their marital relations, are raped and forced to dispose of the couple's assets in cases of separation or death from their husband. Partially derived from a recent Master's dissertation, literature review and empirical research that we have been carrying out since 2010 on the subject, in this article we describe the process of collective marriages and analyze its meaning for the women covered. In light of the theoretical assumptions of the sociology of freedom, the article reveals that, in a patriarchal context where women's rights are disrespected, the project of collective marriages, by supporting the process of officializing the marital relations of couples living in a de facto union, contributes to the satisfaction of women from families with few resources, expands their social capital, their security at home and gives greater visibility to the need for public interventions aimed at safeguarding the rights of women and their social prestige both in the family and in society in general.

This paper aims to analyze the process of (dis)legitimacy of artistic-sociological consciences in Russia during the early years of Stalinist rule, in order to recover the history of language studies and the context of production of Bakhtinian writings. The method that underlies the reflection undertaken is based on the theoretical-methodological assumptions of Bakhtin (2006 [1979]; 2010 [1920-24]), Medviédev (2016 [1928]) and Volóchinov (2017 [1929], 2013), among others, which present criticisms of the formalist model, prevailing in Stalinist Russia. Historical sources are also used (Deutscher, 2006; Fitzpatrick, 2017) to investigate the political-ideological context of the post-revolution of 1917. The relevance of this manuscript is realized in the contribution of a contemporary but not anachronistic look, which brings to light a critical reading about the construction of philosophical and ethical (aesthetic) approaches on artistic-sociological consciences in Russia. The results show that, despite the execrable situation to which the members of the Bakhtin Circle were subjected amid attempts to (un)artistic legitimacy by the Russian state, researchers and intellectuals resisted and proposed to (re)think the aesthetic object (literary) as conceived by Stalin, whose primary proposal was the unification of the Russian language. Thus, this is not only language movements for the implementation of a linguistic system conception, but also a sociohistorical-cultural reality. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

ABSTRACT Objectives: to understand nursing representative entities’ articulations and the influence on nursing. Methods: a qualitative study of a historical-social approach with a conceptual framework by nurse Denise Elvira Pires de Pires. With a historical profile from 1975 to 2018, five former presidents of Brazilian Nursing Association - Santa Catarina Section and Regional Nursing Board of Santa Catarina were interviewed. The methodology for understanding data was through Bardin’s content analysis. Results: the board structuring and performance generated changes in the relations between the two entities and debate about the role and power of representation of each one. There were periods of approach and removal, with consequences for professional representation effectiveness. Conclusions: nursing valuation and recognition as a profession in society has a strong influence on entities’ performance that represent it. The union of them, politically or organizationally, is necessary and urgent.

The globalization debate attaches importance to the challenges faced by subnational territories. According to several studies, the effects are unevenly distributed: in some areas the results are better (or worse) than in others. The differentiation seems to justify approaches in terms of what one could call "sociology of place", paying attention to social, economic, cultural and institutional attributes. This study focuses on this subject by addressing three areas of Santa Catarina: the Vale do Itajaí, with textiles and clothing production, the North, with furniture activities, and the West, were agroindustry reigns, whose features were historically constituted. Based on bibliographic and documentary research, local reactions ranging from the restructuring to the persistence of behaviors that became problematic are looked upon. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Presents an analysis of the experiences of an outreach project developed with adolescents sentenced by the state with deprivation of liberty. The project carried out pedagogical workshops using rap to provide support to correctional measures. Mobilizing strategies from the sociology of literature, we analyzed lyrics produced by adolescents during these workshops to understand their social content. Results highlight the relationship between social inequality and the restriction of imaginary, the nexus between total institutions and the mutilation of the self, the contribution of fabulation through rap to the reestablishment of the symbolic space necessary to restore the right to the imaginary.

This article proposes that the datification of the processes recognition changes how the subjects relate to the world and to their own identities. The sociology of communication often treats digital platforms as potential amplifiers of the voices of historically silenced groups that struggle to be recognized in their different dimensions by society. Starting from an alternative perspective, with a focus on the datification processes that cross these platforms, the article proposes a reflection on the modes and logics that permeate the recognition processes occurring on Facebook, Twitter and other similar platforms. Ultimately, the work suggests that the processes of surveillance, metrification and processing online sociability, within the current economic logics, restrict expressive possibilities of the subject that do not fit into individualized models of self-promotion.

RESUMO O objetivo deste texto é analisar, inicialmente, por uma vertente crítica, a produção da pesquisa social em saúde coletiva tendo como eixo norteador o ‘elo perdido’ entre teoria-e-método. Para tanto, optou-se pela modalidade textual de ensaio crítico, inspirada em Adorno e Meneghetti, que a defendem como forma de ultrapassar o pensamento para além das fronteiras do método. Toma-se como ponto de partida a frequente confusão entre ‘pesquisa social’ e ‘pesquisa qualitativa’ no campo da saúde coletiva como questão disparadora da reflexão. Ao longo do texto, a reflexão reaviva conceitos, teorias e as técnicas utilizadas na subárea das ‘Ciências Sociais e Humanas em Saúde’ como forma de discorrer sobre essa (des)conexão. Por fim, são apresentados limites e possibilidades da pesquisa social na saúde coletiva e o papel das Ciências Sociais e Humanas em Saúde na problematização do debate.

Resumo O presente artigo discute a presumida inexistência de ciências sociais durante o Estado Novo português, executa uma síntese dos mais recentes trabalhos sobre a história da sociologia em Portugal, integra-a no contexto internacional pertinente e sugere que a institucionalização parcial daquele saber no decurso da ditadura pode ser compreendida como “consequência não desejada” de determinadas ações do regime e resultado dos esforços subsequentes da parte de quadros médios da burocracia oficial e/ou de institutos conexos de aconselhamento político no sentido de dar dignidade universitária às suas atividades técnicas. De forma complementar, o mesmo processo pode ainda ser entendido enquanto “autonomização” progressiva e atalhada de “campos sociais” científico-sociais com matrizes diversas.

A decade after the Memorandum of Understanding signed between the Portuguese government and the Troika, this article addresses democracy through the identification of discursive silences. Using the conceptual framework of the Epistemologies of the South to analyze the European context, it is argued that it is necessary to recognize the abyssal lines that separate the strange civil society from the uncivil civil society. A sociology of absences is produced in three phases. Therefore, in the first part of this article, it is shown that austerity, more than a break in the European normality - as it was presented - was a policy of continuity, which reified hierarchies between countries and people. In the second part, I address the silences of official speeches from the perspective of the antiausterity protests that took place between 2011 and 2013. Finally, I analyze the silences of the protests from the perspective of Roma activists. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Objective: To discuss about Clinical Care and Clinical Nursing Care, in this path, proposing a definition for these concepts. Methods: It is a theoretical study, reflective, anchored in the conception of care and clinic by several authors from different areas of knowledge (Philosophy, Sociology, Medicine and Nursing), with a view to allowing the construction of a theoretical basis capable of supporting the proposed discussions and definitions. Results: Clinical Care and Clinical Nursing Care have been increasingly used by professionals and researchers. However, these concepts are still poorly defined. Hegemonically, the clinic has been represented by the research and therapeutic activities of the repercussions of the disease on the body, marked by signs and symptoms. However, in this sense, focusing on the disease, the clinic contributes little to the resolution of health problems. Conclusion: It is proposed that the Clinical Care represents a new conceptual field, with the establishment of new relationships between the subjects, which focuses on the signs and symptoms, but also on the psychological and social repercussions of the disease, considering the person, to the detriment of the patient. disease, and its context of life.

This text proposes to make some reflections on the children's citizenship in the contemporary society from the theoretical construct of the Sociology of the Childhood that understands the child as social actor, being of the present, participatory and producer of cultures and childhood as a socio-historically generational category built. The reflection is based on the constitution of the citizen child. Part of the paths covered by the idea of incapacity and incompetence of the child in a perspective envisaged in modernity, it revises the concept of citizenship through the discussion proposed by Roger Hart (1992) called Ladder of Child Participation, to reach the status of participatory citizenship that conceives child as a social subject, implying not only the formal recognition of their rights, but also in the conditions of their exercise of participation. The current relevance of the theme turns to the imperative of childhood citizenship, its protagonism and the emancipatory potential of the experiences of children's participation in research, schools and public spaces facing the challenges imposed by contemporary society.

The article reflects upon some of the pillars of the thinking of Boaventura de Sousa Santos, making connections with the Childhood Studies, especially with regard to the Sociology of Childhood in its critical approach. We therefore reengage some concepts elaborated by the author, such as the critique of modern science and the sociology of emergencies, interacting mainly with the theoretical framework proposed by Sarmento (2004; 2018). We also discuss in the article the concept of the rights of the child and its implications for research focused on early childhood education. Finally, given the argumentative nature of the chain of concepts developed by Boaventura, which allows for contradictions and confrontations of the hegemonic discourse already formulated about childhood, we suggest some alignments between the need of rethinking this generational segment and the fulfillment of the conditions for its social emancipation. Along these lines, we propose to overcome the universal vision not only in relation to the child, as has already been done by the critical Sociology of Childhood, but also in relation to the school, giving visibility to alternative experiences in this space. We conclude that the decentralized view of childhood in different institutional contexts, including school environments with other forms of time and space organization, with other logics in the implementation of its pedagogical political projects can offer new ways for the construction of a Pedagogy of Childhood which, in Brazil, constitutes an emerging field of research.

This article aims to develop the argument that the strength of scientific denialism (negationism) and the normalization of death in the conduct of the Covid-19 pandemic in Brazil were possible in recent years insofar as it has been attributed to the president of Brazil, Jair Bolsonaro, by diverse social interests and agents, the role of leadership and authority responsible for the purification of politics, the economy and the nation. His strategy of "to make live and to let die" found active or passive support in a significant part of Brazilian society because Bolsonaro is able to establish himself in this pole of purification and restoration of a supposedly lost-regime of truth. The research encompasses diverse textual productions and official and informal statements by the social agents in question. To analyze them, social theories, especially in sociology, were used in order to identify the agents, ideologies and discursive that produce meanings about life and death. As a result, it is possible to affirm that the government's objective of making the virus circulate, outlined as an implicit and explicit goal since the beginning of the pandemic, demanded a normalization of preventable deaths, which only the neo-fascist language, which is capable of producing an alternative meaning of life more authentic and purer, it has been able to achieve so far.

This article consists of an analysis of how health workers are represented in the "Pandemic" - serie produced by Netflix. Recognized as one of the most seen audiovisual products by this platform in the first months of 2020, it intends to discuss, if not the world reality, at least how such reproduction mediated by the lenses of the camcorders occurs in this pandemic context. Thus, gesture, noise, silence, camera displacement, the exercise of editing and the application of narration are related through the mobilization and instrumentalization of human emotions. With a dialogue between sociology and audiovisual, this text proposes to discuss the possibilities of a series in understanding different world views. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This article discusses the concept of "word of daily life", one of the most important contributions of A. Schutz's "phenomenological sociology" to contemporary social theory. We argue that the fundamental premise of this concept refers primarily to the question of action (the flow of activities always in the process of transformation and realization) and not only of meaning. We start from the assumption that his theory assumes an "ontological character": human existence consists in being in the world and it is proper to the human being to act. Action is always circumstantial, requires an "initial impetus" (motive) and is essentially constituted as an ongoing process (path), which differs from the "act" (the result of this path, the action taken). The meanings, produced in the flow of activities, are interpretations of past experiences. This premise raises a challenge for sociology: how to deal with a reality that in itself is temporal, plural, uncertain? [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Problematizing some of the mains aspects of the sociologies of the individual is the aim of this article with the intention of collaborating for a better understanding of the concepts and methods that have been mobilized for the sociological objectification of individual existence. Three central perspectives of this field are discussed: Bernard Lahire's theory of action, Jean-Claude Kaufmann's theory of habits, and Danilo Martuccelli's theory of individuation. It is considered in that choice the similar type of sociological practice that these authors carry out, which is sustained by a continuous relationship between research and original theorization. The article presents the contributions of the sociologies of the individual to contemporary sociological theory, underlining them as part of a heterogeneous theoretical-methodological field still in development.

The paper proposes a concept of embodied subjectivity in the framework of an existential sociology. Starting from Maurice Merleau-Ponty's existentialist-phenomenological philosophy, I present some questions concerning the subject and the body in the social world. These questions are then discussed with reference to Erving Goffman's sociological theory and the work of Michel Foucault. Through the works of these three authors, a notion of embodied subjectivity is constructed, that is, a concept of subject that takes into consideration the body as a fundamental nexus of social relations. Finally, two directions of a possible existential sociology are explored from the notion of embodied subjectivity. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
