This article focuses on the concept of the Hidden Curriculum, based on Critical Theory and the Sociology of the Curriculum. This analysis is fundamental to the task of understanding the curriculum's mission in producing personalities. However, by attributing the center of this process to those experiences and objectives that are not explicit, the concept also contributes to absolving the formal curriculum of its responsibility in the formation of social subjects. It is therefore necessary to examine the minutiae of cultural and social reproduction, which is evident in the combination of one and the other (formal and hidden curriculum). The discussion is based on the works Documentos de Identidade: uma introdução às teorias curriculares, by Tomaz Tadeu da Silva (2016) and Sociologia e teoria crítica do currículo: uma introdução by Antônio Flávio Barbosa Moreira and Tomaz Tadeu da Silva (2001). The aim was to contribute to an understanding of curriculum organization and its links with broad economic and social formations, with the aim of understanding the role of schools in selecting, preserving, transmitting and distributing culture, governed by ideological norms and values.

The aim of the article is to share the memory woven over fifty years of monitoring Basic Ecclesial Communities (BECs) in Brazil. It is a memory based on facts, however, observed from a very peculiar perspective: “observant participation” (Regina Novaes), typical of a researcher in the fi eld of sociology of religion who has been enchanted by the new face of the Catholic Church that has emerged in the BECs. The reflections shared here are intended to pay tribute to Father João Batista Libanio, SJ, a great chronicler of the first Interchurch meetings of the BECs and the author’s companion in many advisory activities. Finally, the exposition of the memories follows the hypothesis put forward by the author that we are witnessing the emergence of the fourth generation of the BECs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The intention of this article is to reflect on the concepts of norm and linguistic norm. The text begins by showing how the reflections of Social Sciences, particularly Sociology, maybe fruitful for defining the concept of norms in the area of Linguistics, as the latter turned its attention to this concept later than the other disciplines. The main conceptualizations proposed in Linguistics are then presented. Finally, attention is given to the concept of standard language, whose definition still varies from one author to another. In this way, the paper brings several clues to deepen the reflection on the subject and hopes to contribute to its relevance as an object of scientific research. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

An interview with Manuel Villaverde Cabral, who briefly directed Análise Social in 2004, is presented. Cabral expresses his vision for the journal, proposing a shift towards a more sociology-focused approach, although this idea faced tension and was not extensively discussed or implemented. He reflects on the functioning of Análise Social during his time, discussing the lack of foreign contributors and the evolving editorial practices, including the absence of blind peer review.

The publication, in 1964, in the pages of the journal Análise Social, of "Portugal, sociedade dualista em evolução", by Adérito Sedas Nunes, is seen as an inaugural milestone in systematic sociological research into Portuguese social structure. This text seeks to reconstitute the dualist sociological argument contained in the article, the path of in-depth research into the Portuguese social structure to which it invited and the realisation of such a path, within a paradigmatic framework, progressively defined around domination and inequalities, which the constitution of a disciplinary field in the field of sociology has guaranteed.

This text, marking the 60th anniversary of gisics, revisits certain facets of an institutional history bearing upon the emergence of modernity in Portuguese social sciences. Focusing on the analytical contributions of Adérito Sedas Nunes - the main protagonist behind gis' foundation - the article elaborates on the transition from corporatism to sociology, a path that reflects the gradual maturation of a certain approach to the obstacles that hindered the development of Portuguese society and the ways to overcome them. The 60th anniversary of gis-ics constitute, therefore, a fitting occasion to recognize its historical importance and its consensual status as an institution of reference in Portuguese social sciences.

The educational context in Brazil has generated concern on the part of managers and professionals in the field of Education. The teacher has been suffering from stressors that directly affect the quality of his work. Factors such as: low wages, excessive number of students in the class, the relationship with students and the lack of professional appreciation, are some aspects that stimulate mental illness and, in many cases, Burnout. These episodes become more frequent and aggravated in public educational institutions, in relation to private establishments. The importance of Sociology is highlighted, regarding mental illness nowadays, mainly teachers, the class most affected in this context, in view of the constant interaction of this professional with society. Given this situation, this study aims to carry out a Bibliographic Review of the Literature on the "Burnout Syndrome in Contexts of Work Stress in Teachers Under the Focus of Legal Sociology". For that, articles were searched on the scientific platforms: Scielo, Google Scholar and Lilacs. The inclusion principles were articles related to the research topic. The exclusion factors were articles that did not refer to the focus of the study. The survey responses presented a scenario of the presence of Burnout in, predominantly, service providers, workers in the treatment area and educators. The main aspects, such as: the inter-professional relationship, overwork, the low pay and the lack of professional recognition promote the development of emotional exhaustion, which can lead to Burnout.

The discussion on the moral issue in Mozambique starts from philosophical questions whose answer always implies the need for diagnosis and "cure" of a social evil. Questions are rarely asked about how morality, specifically justice as a "moral value", is constructed from the "social fabric" itself. Two questions arise: how do social actors define what is "fair" and "unfair", "good" and "bad"? How is justice politically conceived in different political contexts (and temporalities) that determined different forms of power relations in the history of Mozambique? Such questions place us in the field of Sociology of Morality. And, perhaps for this reason, there has been little interest from philosophers, leaving some void in the approach to the moral issue. This article aims to problematize the construction of this void. From an analysis of official documents, and based on Discourse Analysis focusing on the category "justice" as a moral value, it appears that the dynamics and form of morality in Mozambique as a recent country, occurs from of two differentials in political power relations, namely: openness to the constitution of a revolutionary bias and openness to a democracy with a liberal bias. Having noted these forms and dynamics, it is considered that a sociology of morality in the country would have to account for the contexts in which the moral issue is determined and the conditions under which it is possible. The concern of this sociology cannot be about what "should be". Furthermore, this "must be" also becomes the object of sociological investigation [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This study aims to outline the views of the three foremost classic sociological thinkers on religion: Karl Marx, Émile Durkheim, and Max Weber. To this end, the methodology adopted was a bibliographical literature review organized by the concepts and theories of these authors. The search for an understanding of the religious phenomenon took on scientific form in the 19th century with the emergence of sociology and its founding trio. In this respect, each of them approached the subject from different perspectives, with points of rapprochement and distance between them, each contributing in their way to our understanding of the influence of religion on society.

This article aimed to observe the scope of work on Anthony Giddens in the field of organizational studies in Portuguese, from 2010 to 2021, in four databases. As for the research assumption, it was established that there would be few contributions in those years, mainly due to Giddens' lack of methodological clarity. The authors used to explain the sociologist's vision were, initially, Giddens himself (1979, 1996, 2003). Subsequently, criticisms are presented through Mouzelis (1989), Archer (1982), and Stones (2005). As for the method, bibliometric research was used through 4 filters: (1st) Years from 2010 to 2021; (2nd) Areas of organizational studies - administration and sociology; (3rd) Jobs repeated twice or more; (4th) Studies with non-searchable characters. Thus, the results show that organizational studies focusing on Anthony Giddens have declined over the last few years and, in addition, it was found that they are more theoretical than empirical.

This paper aims to problematize the Sociology proposed by the French anthropologist Florence Weber to mathematical Education, taking her concept of social scene as the articulation axis, and the theorization on language games developed by the Austrian-British philosopher Ludwig Wittgenstein. The idea is to create possibilities to think about mathematical Education in a different way, develop new thoughts and give new meanings to it. This paper lists some modern elements in the making of Mathematics and shows that it was established as a form of true knowledge in Western society in different times and spaces. Afterwards, it introduces Mathematics as a language game and as a social scene. Finally, some considerations are made about a possible direction for Mathematics Education, suggesting that it should be seen in a different way, not as a hard science, but as something that transcends exact calculations and can be found in the ways of knowing and doing in different cultures. Thus, strategies that differ from those imposed by the school could be taken into account and enable new ways of mathematizing that may be silent. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This research has as a starting point the fact that Brazil suffers from an unequal distribution of wealth, intending to understand in which ways the 1988’s tried – and in which failed – to secure that the social rights were effective, especially the rights to health and to social security. Utilizing the historic sociologic approach applied to Law, to comprehend the actors, interests and projects brought to the National Constituent Assembly of 1987, identifying the impasses to the creation of a taxation system able to sustain the load of social rights recognized. In conclusion, there was a contradiction between the bill of social rights and the design of the taxation system. The latter has privileged a regressive taxation, that penalizes those who have less wealth, putting difficulties to the overcoming of social inequality and to the broader effectiveness of the rights to wealth and social security.

This article analyzed the processes of stigmatization, labeling and deviation in the school context, taking as a heuristic object the novel Nossa Senhora do Nilo, by the Rwandan writer Scholastique Mukasonga (2017). Articulating testimony and fictional elaboration, the writer exposed the marks of colonialism in the face of cultural, social and religious relations by illustrating the daily life of a Catholic school exclusively for girls (daughters of the Hutu political and economic elite of Rwanda, for the most part) amid the conflict between Tutsis and Hutus that resulted in a civil war (1990-1994) and later in the Rwandan genocide (1994). The article is divided into three sections. In the first, we deal with how the author elaborates on the work of memory in her literary. In the second, we discuss the concepts of stigmatization, labeling and deviance in the light of classic works, as well as more recent studies on the subject. In the third section, we analyze the chapter "O nariz da virgem", from Nossa Senhora do Nilo, linking it to the phenomenon of stigmatization and labeling that, in that context, contributed to Tutsi students being persecuted and killed in high school, with their consent either silent or declared by the professors and directors of the institution. In the final considerations, we reflect on the fruitfulness of studies that analytically combine the fields of Sociology and Literature. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Several conceptual and linguistic conventions in Portuguese Sociology are grounded on gendered exclusions and stereotypes which can skew knowledge and reinforce inequalities. In this article, I problematise some of those conventions, analysing their scientific effects and demonstrating their potential impacts on participants and society. Arguing that it is urgent to reflect consciously and critically on the construction of gender within Sociology in Portugal, I draw on insights from feminist critiques to propose strategies that can be applied by sociologists across all areas of expertise to think and write about gender in a more reflexive, rigorous and responsible way.

This article presents a comparative study between the sociology of religion and the sociology of music, aiming at understanding the community potential of music in its application in the religious construct. For this, the disciplinary field in which such a discussion will take place will be explored and defined, namely, the studies on community music. Thus, music as a unifying factor for people in the religious context will be discussed, uniting the perspectives of the two mentioned areas: for the sociology of religion, the reference is the sociologist Peter L. Berger and his main work "The Sacred Canopy" and, for the musicological point of view, John Blacking's framework is adopted, especially his study of the musical practices of the Venda ethnic group. Finally, we expect to point out directions for a more in-depth interdisciplinary study of this relationship, seeking a mutual contribution between both theoretical fields. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The present study investigated the teaching of Sociology in high school at the Federal Institute of Education, Science and Technology of Paraíba (IFPB) - Campus Sousa, highlighting the organization of the subject in the Pedagogical Project of courses integrated into high school, the contents taught and the adoption of pedagogical resources in teaching plans and class diaries. As a methodological proposal, a bibliographical and documentary research was carried out, through the analysis procedure of the Pedagogical Projects of Course (PPC's), the teaching plans of the discipline and the diaries of the professor of sociology. From the results, it is possible to perceive a concern with the contextualization of the contents, in order to establish connection with pedagogical resources that arouse the students' interest. On the other hand, it is perceived the need of the researched institution to transpose the interdisciplinarity of the paper to the classroom, as well as to encourage the willingness to work together between the disciplines. Equally, engage in the debate so that the discipline of Sociology can continue to be offered in basic education. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this text, I present the theoretical and methodological foundations of my research about the Brazilian composer Heitor Villa-Lobos. The text was written after an invitation to comment on a critical article about this research, and it is structured in two parts. In the first one, I present some of my arguments about Villa-Lobos' trajectory, and I demonstrate how they are not recognizable in the readings made about them in the critical article in question. Next, I establish a contrast between my hypotheses, and those presented by the authors of the article. This discussion shows how my investigation, that was based on an archival ethnography, restored the practices of the agents linked to the different social networks Villa-Lobos was related to. Thus, a careful examination of primary sources allowed me to present an interpretation of these practices, following the assumptions of Weber's comprehensive sociology. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This article aims to think and propose, epistemically and methodologically, a sociology of capturing attention in the light of current sociotechnical phenomena, taking some examples from the Covid-19 pandemic in the West. Considering attention as a resource of the economy triggered by informational and vigilance capitalism, it is suggested to study the capture of visual attention in general, and the capture of manipulable attention in particular, as an area of extreme relevance in contemporary sociology. Captology, this new science that operationalizes digital knowledge and techniques on socio-digital platforms with a view to capturing attention, produces sufficient financial, behavioral and cultural impacts to merit a new sociological discipline.

This paper analyzes the configuration of female leadership and the conception of marriage in the Bola de Neve Church (BNC) in the city of Londrina, PR. The documentary research was carried out with the publications made available to the faithful, intentionally the book “A formação de um líder” of a leader and the chapter “O alicerce de um líder - a família” served as a source for analysis and interpretation guided by the contributions of the Sociology of religions and by studies on conservative thinking with an emphasis on the role of women. As a result, it was found that female leadership exists within the institution but conditioned to married faithful. This criterion provides elements for understanding the values defended by the denomination regarding marriage and the attributions of exclusively female responsibility: domestic work, management of family conflicts and preservation and reproduction of religious values; aspects that approximate the BNC's discourse to maxims of a fundamentalist religious character.

This study reflects on the relationship between racism in Brazil and the curriculum of universities, presenting real cases of racism. The problem is that the curriculum is a social reflection, so that there is a low number of black authors, generating implications for representation. Therefore, the guiding question is: how is it possible to reduce racist acts in universities, even with a low representation of black authors? It is hypothesized that identity can be configured/reconfigured by representativeness, illustrated by antiracist speeches of some authors present in the curricula of the sociology courses, so that, even with a low number, they provide the creation of spaces for speaking and listening against racism, since they enable emancipation. The foundations are anchored in the notion of curriculum by Sacristán (2000) and Silva (1998); representativeness by Woodward (2000) and Arroyo (2015); identity by Hall (2003), as well as emancipation in the spaces of speech and listening, in the perspective of Freire (1987). This study is justified, since the incidence of racist acts affects more than half of the black Brazilian population. The methodology is bibliographic and exploratory. The general objective is to present how the theories and speeches of some authors help in the formation of black representativeness. The results indicate that it is possible to emancipate oneself in spaces of speech and listening. It is expected to produce reflections to combat racism. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Public policies for children and young people are analyzed. Effects generated by the process of dismissal of young people from the Brazilian Institutional Reception System on their eighteenth birthday are investigated. As a rule, the vulnerability of young people in Brazil is ignored and there is a lack of public policies to provide eventual help at their dismissal from the system and to contribute towards self-sustenance. Methodology comprises qualitative empirical research based on literature review on the respective theme and analysis of documents related to Institutional Reception Services. Current article will be a contribution to legal sociology and towards the creation of new perspectives for the development of state protection for young people dismissed by the system. It will guarantee fundamental rights such as housing, food, work and others. The absence and ineffectiveness of projects, resources and social public policies offered to young people to guarantee fundamental rights victimize Brazilian society within an impoverished socio-juridicalpolitical system.

This article analyzes the skills, competence and proficiencies of the Sociology items of the Human Sciences test and its ENEM technologies. Its methodology is qualitative and can be treated as exploratory research. Their data were processed using Content Analysis, proposed by Bardin (1977). This resource brings together techniques aimed at understanding messages and exploring materials. The results revealed five themes present in the questions that strictly address school Sociology: gender inequality; access and use of technology; racism and racial inequality; citizenship, power and politics and material and immaterial culture. The analysis of skills, competencies and proficiencies revealed the absence of issues with an advanced level of collection. The resolution of these items requires only textual interpretation.

The obligation and legitimacy of teaching religion in Sociology has been recurrently questioned in Campo das Vertentes of Minas Gerais. Therefore, this article aims to understand how the religion theme is inserted in classes of sociology curricular component, from teachers’ perspective. Considering the assumptions of Oral History, nine teachers in full exercise of their profession were interviewed. As seen, the theme of religion is a point of tension in their practices, especially in a traditionally Catholic region. Among other things, the results indicate that the teachers’ practical experience and their job stability are important elements which influence if the subjects considered controversial, such as religion, can (or cannot) have relevance in the classrooms.

Ivan da Costa Marques became aware of Brazil's technological dependence through research experience abroad. And through research within the country, based on an autonomous approach to modernity for Brazil, he discovered that the reserves of the minicomputer market could be a vanishing point from technological dependence. With his reflection on how the success of this escape line became a failure, Costa Marques realized that disciplinary explanations from engineering, economics, or even sociology, always had implicit assumptions and value choices that reinforced the view of the so-called developed countries. Thus, the study of the limitations of this vanishing point led to Science, Technology and Society Studies that situated them as a powerful tool for overcoming coloniality in the peripheries of the West.

The Covid-19 pandemic is one of the most important phenomenons of our time. Scientists will pore over it for decades to try to understand its effects on the multiple dimensions of life. The following text is an attempt to contribute to this understanding, questioning some of the impacts of the pandemic on the lives of homeless people in Brasília (DF), capital of Brazil. Extensive research has been carried out in Brasília - DF with these populations and, based on a sample, we brought three testimonies that illustrate the processes of intensification of the stigmatization that they suffer. We theoretically approached the theme based on Goofman´s reflections on stigma, but we incorporated other more recent contributions in order to bring to light what has been happening to these groups. The dialogue between theory and field research indicates that, in addition to the interactionist perspective, stigma must be understood within a broader context of power relations and social inequality. Stigma is not a random phenomenon, but has privileged targets, and the groups that suffer from stigma also occupy underprivileged positions in society: ethnic, racial and sexual minorities, carriers of diseases that are mostly endemic among the poorest people including the homeless populations.

Introduction: The access of people with colorectal cancer to surgical treatment with stomization implies a difficult itinerary through the network of care, and when accessing the tertiary level in an apprehensive preoperative waiting. Objective: To know the access and waiting for stomization of people sick with colorectal cancer at the tertiary level of the Brazilian Unified Health System. Materials and Methods: Ethnographic study based on the Sociology of Health, with 8 relatives and 14 patients in a High Complexity Oncology Center, Brazil. Data were collected between October 2018 to March 2019, with participant and non-participant observation, field diary recording, and semi-structured interview. Statements and ethnographic notes after triangulation were subjected to inductive content analysis in six steps. Results: "The history of illness interspersed with difficulties" and "The losses in the process of patience-resilience along the way" were apprehended. Discussion: Three types of access were reported, as well as the submeanings "I paid privately" and the diagnostic delay mobilized by official and unofficial means in the Unified Health System. Social capital is pressing, a network without which users' access is impacted. At the tertiary level while waiting for stomization, resilience was unveiled not as a heroic resource, but as a personal and collective resource. Conclusion: The access counted on relational mobilization and a range of paths to hospitalization with part of the journey in supplementary health, while the waiting for stomization mitigates patience making resilience a beneficial resource in the wait for surgical programming.

The article recovers Oliveira Vianna’s recommendation, formulated in the 1920s, regarding the need for research aimed at understanding the “real country”, in order to show how, in the next generation, that of 1930, Gilberto Freyre was his more committed continuator. If Vianna precariously advances on his own suggestions, the Pernambucan, by valuing the Brazilian colonial past, manages to break with a certain “sociology of absence” present in the works of some of his contemporaries. In this effort, Freyre builds an inaugural work marked by innovative elements. I support the hypothesis that such revolutionary aspects can be partially interpreted in function of their adherence to conservative assumptions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this article, we aim to present an analytical perspective for curricular policies, based on the interconnection between the Sociological Theories of Ball and Bernstein to understand the pedagogical discourse produced in the texts and contexts of these policies. We present in the text the theoreticalepistemological and methodological foundation that can be used to support research in the field of curriculum, which uses the sociological approach, which is built from a qualitative approach. From the bibliographical research carried out, we embroidered sociological concepts that underlie the research, such as State, power, politics and their typologies, as well as analytical perspectives that are presented for its analysis, supported by the sociological theories of Ball and Bernstein, used intercrossed for the analysis of the speeches and contexts of the policies. We consider that sociology is a fertile ground to support research in the field of curriculum and that the interconnection of these theories is a powerful analytical way for curriculum policies.

What are the social dimensions of grief in face of the loss of a companion animal? How is such a loss lived in daily life, through practices and rituals? And how does grief for a companion animal contribute to the definition of the human-animal boundary? Drawing on contributions from both Animal Studies and the Sociology of Personal Life, this article proposes a three-fold interpretation of pet grief. First, by looking at the place of companion animals in the personal networks of the Portuguese people, and the relationality of contemporary life. Second, by looking at specific rituals and practices that, after the loss of an animal, continue to weave a thin cobweb that keeps them within the lives of humans. Third, by considering the inequalities that crosscut the grief process, according to species, and that contribute not only to perpetuating the exceptionality of the human but also that certain species are regarded as more grievable than others.

This article problematizes work practices with children, analyzing especially adultcentric practices and the ways in which they characterize public policies aimed at childhood in Brazil. Our study was based on the cartography method, which made it possible to monitor the uncertain psychosocial landscapes caused by the Covid-19 pandemic. It used methodological concepts from Institutional Analysis and the Sociology of Childhood, which intersected with elements of Afroperspectivist philosophy, such as represented among the Ibeji and the Erês. The methodological tool adopted was the Conversation Circle, carried out online, which operated as a group apparatus characterized by welcoming and sharing, where it was possible to gather and analyze data on adult-centric practices among workers from different public agencies in health, social assistance and education, aimed at children in the state of Espírito Santo. Research diaries were also produced, which were referred to in the analytic process. The text identifies several aspects of Erean adult's views of childhood, and offers insight into the knowledge and practices that contribute to the process of becoming-Erê, a possibility that can be exercised at any stage of life.

This article aims to focus on the institutional bases of the conceptions of justice. Therefore, initially, it points out the importance of the concept of institution, underlining, however, the polysemy that characterizes it. Once this is done, he carries out a concise examination of the "sociology of institutions" developed by Émile Durkheim. Then, it seeks to focus on the question of the institutional bases of the conceptions of justice based on the rereading proposed by Mary Douglas about the famous article "the case of the speluncean explorers", by Lon L. Fuller. Finally, as a conclusion, it provides a brief summary of the analyzed theme. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This article is a theoretical reflection, the result of previous studies, related to the schooling of indigenous children. It is not our intention to present empirical research results, but rather, an attempt to engage in dialogues that expand and problematize conceptions about childhood times/spaces in their multiplicities and cultural singularities, taking as a guide the multiple ways in which indigenous children rub shoulders with life, experiencing their worlds. In this attempt, we focus on theoretical references of Sociology and Philosophy of childhood, opting for authors who inaugurated this type of approach, because we understand that their contributions are original and timeless, contributing to pluralizing concepts such as: child, childhood and children's culture. In this way, it is in an attempt to collaborate for the construction of an "Indigenous Pedagogy", which reorients school education focused on childhood, that this study addresses itself.

In this paper, we trace a conceptual roadmap aimed at reconciling a life course perspective with the sociology of class and social inequality. We begin by presenting the life course perspective, reflecting on the central role it grants to processes of institutional regulation. Taking stock of critiques to both atomist explanations of agency and structural determinisms, we advocate for a longitudinal reading of how inequalities shape individual and collective trajectories, mobilizing concepts advanced by Pierre Bourdieu. We then demonstrate the potential of this approach to discuss how life course trajectories unfold in late modernity, drawing on recent research on Portugal. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This article intends to demonstrate how Durkheim's sociology of morals is a continuation and a (sociological) overcoming of certain central points of Kant's theory, such as the ideas of autonomy and the kingdom of ends; and therefore proposes a key to understand the normative dimension of Durkheimian sociology, which has as much weight as the analytic stage that precedes it.

The Oswaldo Cruz Scientific Vocational Program at the Oswaldo Cruz Foundation in Rio de Janeiro has been enabling high school students to initiate scientific activities for more than thirty years through agreements with schools and/or Public Interest Civil Society Organizations. Through the analysis of semi-structured interviews conducted with fifteen students and thirty-two alumni of Provoc-Fiocruz, a tendency was observed for students to choose areas that are socially considered more appropriate according to gender norms. These choices are also justified by them based on emotions categorized as "liking," "interest," and "pride/recognition." This study reflects on how these emotional aspects are expressed in the accounts of the academic and professional training practices of these students. In this context, studies are proposed on the applicability of teaching Sociology as an intervention in the formative process of these students. Through this teaching proposal, the aim is to encourage them to understand how professional practices are historically and culturally associated with gender constructions that are expressed through emotions. This proposal, it is intended to promote the problematization of gender differences, approaching sociological and anthropological concepts and their implications in the construction of knowledge about the areas that result in academic and professional choices.

The objeto of the article isso to present some os the initiatives that have been taken in a school institution of the state public network, in the city of São Gonçalo, for the application of federal legislation n. 10.639/2003 African and Afro-Brazilian History and Culture in Basic Education. The law has been in effect for about 16 years and, as we can see from the literature produced in the area of Ethnic-Racial Relations, few institutions include the law in school curricula. Although Sociology has a history of work on ethnic-racial relations in Brazilian society, within the school context the theme appears in a few moments and only to address problems such as race, racism and affirmative action in a conceptual way and in many cases distant. students' practical life. With this, we note that in countless contexts in which Sociology could problematize our racial conflicts, such as: religious intolerance against peoples of African origin or racial inequalities in the labor market, they end up not being taken advantage of by the discipline. Another point to be mentioned is the invisibility of black protagonism and political action in Brazilian society in the minimum curricula and teaching materials of the discipline (textbooks).

The National Meeting on Teaching Sociology in Basic Education, an organized by the Teaching Commission of the Brazilian Society of Sociology, has been established as the main event in the field of Teaching Sociology in Brazil, bringing together researchers and teachers. In this work, I seek to analyze the main themes and agents (Working Groups coordinators) in this academic event, mapping this debate from the Working Groups (2013-2021). The data point to the existence of a research agenda that has been consolidated, showing relative autonomy about the broader field of Sociology, and also the existence of agents who tend to lead the debate, with such agents being found mainly in peripheral institutions in the field of Brazilian Sociology. Both in the analysis of the themes and of the agents, we can observe that the field of Teaching Sociology in Brazil is becoming autonomous. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The article presents a re-reading of Max Weber's sociology based on Brian Epstein's anchor individualism. After presenting Gert Albert's thesis on Weber's ontology, we reconstruct, in its broad outlines, the concepts of anchoring and grounding in Epstein's individualistic ontology. We thus demonstrate that for Weber the social level is "anchored" in individuals conceived in their double dimension as bio-psychological and cultural beings. Regarding the "grounding" of the social, we show that the concept of meaningful action can be read as a form of mental projection that finds its collective translation in the dimension of institutionalized social relations [Social Order]. In this way, the relationship between the institutional level and the individual level is not thought of in terms of direct causation, but as "dependence" [grouding]. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This work looks at indigenous rap as a form of struggle and resistance of traditional peoples. Following is a counterculture current follows, which through a hybrid narrative of the Guarani and Portuguese languages, makes an increasing journey, recruiting new generations to join the struggles for the demarcation of indigenous lands. This musical style also brings denunciations of racism and prejudice against indigenous people by portraying the invisibility and/or hostility to which non-indigenous people in urban areas are subjected. This sociological essay seeks to present the forms of visibility of indigenous struggles, namely cultural production, narrative, social interaction and the formation of groups through the hip-hop musical style. We will see how the initiative of the first indigenous rap group in Brazil bear witness to the rise, organization and resistance of indigenous peoples in the defense of their lands.

Having the contemporary sociology of public problems as our basis, we present a reflection on the importance of public experience in cities. This ambition led us to consider the public as the center of political analysis and modality of experience, through which we study, empirically, controversies and conflicts around the functioning of free markets in Corumbá, on the Brazil-Bolivia border. Rescuing the pragmatic contributions, it was possible to understand the process of association, discussion, and procrastination of the problem. In this case, the experience of not only crossing borders, but also of living on the borders, where controversies make the actors operate in different collective actions, each one justifying its problematization.

The goal is to stress differences between those approaches and to suggest that the neurological approach assumes prominence among digital technology developers. In the second part, we discuss the main automatic recommendation methods, developed with the support of Artificial Intelligence (AI). Finally, we comment on the possible consequences of the intensive use of AI for music distribution through streaming services, from the communications standpoint, focusing on circulation and consumption.

This paper aims to revisit the Pauline peristasis catalogues in his second letter to the Corinthians. There, a new perspective is found, based on the interdisciplinary dialogue between the Bible, Psychology and Spirituality, useful for understanding resilience from a Christian perspective, as deduced from the ministry of the apostle to the nations. The concept of resilience, used first in physics and later in Psychology, Psychoanalysis and Sociology, is today found in various hermeneutical approaches to individual and group realities in which people are called to face adverse situations such as difficult relationships, diseases, problems, etc. An analysis of the Pauline peristasis catalogues not only demonstrates that the apostle is a model of resilient behavior but reveals, also, the sides of a hermeneutic arch whose origin is the vocation he received from Christ and whose goal to be reached is the consolation and salvation of Corinthians by him. This finding recalls once again the relevance of Paul's teachings for an interior life anchored in a spirituality of resilience in current times. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This article aims to carry out an analysis of three books related to the discipline of Sociology in the National Book and Didactic Material Program (PNLD) of 2018. Thus, it is intended to identify the concepts and authors that relate to the work category. Still, a synthesis about the historical trajectory of Sociology as a discipline of Brazilian Basic Education is elaborated. The theoretical-methodological perspective used is Historical-Dialectical Materialism, being a bibliographic and qualitative research. Regarding the three works, there is uniformity in the approach of the classic authors of Sociology, as well as in the discussion about the Taylorist-Fordist pattern. In reference to the most current discussions, we note the pertinence of the analysis of the new metamorphoses of the world of work only in the first two works. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The article proposes an interpretation of research results in neuroscience in the light of social theories. It is about emphasizing conceptual and practical convergences between these two branches of science, referring to the social, affective and biological development of the human being. For this, a bibliographic research was carried out in a neuroscientific journal with a high impact factor and free access, with the aim of gathering articles on neuronal implications of social experiences. The selected works were appreciated from socio-anthropological interpretative models, especially from dispositional sociology. The results point to continuities between what happens inside and outside the borders of the skin. More emphatic cooperation between natural and social sciences is also suggested.

The school experience is capital in the trajectories of young people, desirably enabling them to access the adult's worlds. In it, the relationship between teacher and student, in its multiple possible adjustments, occupies a pivotal place. Reducing the distance between them is a way of preserving the novelty that the new generations bring. From two empirical cases that occurred in class, recently captured by interview and direct observation, the provocative abilities revealed by students in the (de)adjustment of that relationship are highlighted. Starting from a pragmatist sociology, it highlights the inability of the teacher to integrate in class the effects underlying the unpredictability of certain actions of adolescents.

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]

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]
