O ensaio trata de uma relação do cinema de Ozualdo Candeias com o surgimento do Cinema Marginal brasileiro e a sua proposição anárquica como política e, ao mesmo tempo, como há uma conversa impensada e perto do impossível com algo da literatura brasileira, desde a ideia de Limite, de Mário Peixoto, entre o filme e o poema, até a escritura da miséria de João Antônio.

The objective is to investigate situations of exclusion and discrimination in the memories of teachers who work in the Santa Catarina State School System (Brazil) and who were retired in the period of 2009 to 2013. The guiding question is: how did situations of exclusion and discrimination (racial, sexual orientation, social, religious) occur in the educational context of Santa Catarina, having the memories of retired teachers as a perspective of analysis? This is a socio-historical-documental research with a qualitative approach in its analyses, based on concepts and approximations with the work A Misery of the World, by Pierre Bourdieu. The study contributes to the reconstruction of teachers' trajectories, demarcating situations of exclusion and discrimination experienced in school times and spaces. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

En 1900 Alfredo L. Palacios presentó la tesis La miseria en la República Argentina en la Facultad de Derecho y Ciencias Sociales de la Universidad de Buenos Aires, inscripta en una serie de artículos muy diversos que exploraban los oficios en la ciudad de Buenos Aires en talleres, manufacturas, fábricas y servicios. A la vez fue la primera exploración que se interesó por las enfermedades de etiología profesional y las condiciones de vida de los trabajadores en la Argentina. En ella se advierten las influencias del modelo desarrollado en Francia desde 1860 por el higienismo social, en los análisis que suscitó en Buenos Aires la recepción de la crítica de la economía política de Marx y en las rupturas que se originaron en el movimiento anarquista de los años 1890. Estas primeras reflexiones de Palacios serían continuadas décadas más tarde con las investigaciones que, tras la primera guerra mundial, estimularía la Organización Internacional del Trabajo en torno de la jornada de ocho horas. La Fatiga y sus proyecciones sociales publicada en 1922 se realizó gracias a un vasto dispositivo experimental instalado en un laboratorio en el Riachuelo con el que se demostró cómo la fatiga laboral resiente la salud del trabajador y origina múltiples enfermedades, brindó evidencias para rechazar la ofensiva de las corporaciones para aumentar la jornada de trabajo o impedir su reducción a ocho horas y, por último, arrojó dudas sobre la organización científica del trabajo del ingeniero Frederick W. Taylor que, interesado en los rendimientos, formuló una metodología al margen de la fisiología y la higiene.

L’articolo riassume un contributo al dibattito su Ernesto Rossi economista, nell’ambito di un evento promosso dalla Fondazione Rossi-Salvemini e dall’Associazione Economia Civile nel febbraio 2022 (di cui si ricordano le finalità nell’Introduzione). Scopo principale è sottolineare le affinità di pensiero tra Ernesto Rossi e Paolo Sylos Labini nel contesto della lotta alla ‘miseria’, ovvero nella definizione di strumenti di politica economica atti a ridurre le disuguaglianze economiche e valorizzare i ‘servizi essenziali’ a cui Rossi dedica ampio spazio nel suo Abolire la miseria ([1946] 1977).

A pandemia da COVID-19 intensificou o fenômeno da fome, o vírus não atingiu apenas o setor da saúde, mas também o setor econômico do Brasil, deixando milhares de brasileiros desempregados, colocando-os em situação de extrema pobreza e, consequentemente, em situação de fome. Objetivou-se nesta pesquisa analisar o aumento da fome e da pobreza na região do Norte Pioneiro do estado do Paraná no ano pandêmico de 2020. Os instrumentos metodológicos utilizados na pesquisa foram: pesquisa bibliográfica, pesquisas em órgãos governamentais, coleta de dados secundários, utilização de SIG e elaboração de equações para determinar a porcentagem de pessoas atendidas pelo Programa Bolsa Família e pelo Auxílio Emergencial. No ano de 2020 a região do Norte Pioneiro do Paraná possuía 554.119 habitantes, sendo que, de acordo com o Ministério da Cidadania, 87.324 pessoas foram atendidas pelo Programa Bolsa Família, o que equivale a 15,75% da população. O mais preocupante é que estavam cadastradas no Cadastro Único 87.155 famílias, equivalendo a vivendo com menos de meio salário-mínimo. Ações governamentais específicas de combate à pobreza e à fome deveriam ter máxima prioridade no país e deveriam perseguir essencialmente o aumento da renda dos mais pobres.

Aflatoxins in crops pose a risk to food safety and have been detected in samples of Haitian peanuts. Using an interdisciplinary commodity chain approach, this paper examines the factors that increase the likelihood of aflatoxin contamination in the country's peanut supply. The results indicate that contamination risk is influenced by political, organizational, institutional, socio-economic, technological, and environmental constraints. A systemic analysis was performed to examine how such factors affect the quality of peanuts as they pass through the commodity chain. The results of our study offer broad insights into the challenges of preventing aflatoxins and protecting food safety in Haiti. Las aflatoxinas en los cultivos representan un riesgo para la seguridad alimentaria y se han detectado en muestras de maní haitiano. Utilizando un enfoque interdisciplinario de cadena de productos básicos, este documento examina los factores que aumentan la probabilidad de contaminación por aflatoxinas en el suministro de maní del país. Los resultados indican que el riesgo de contaminación está influenciado por restricciones políticas, organizacionales, institucionales, socioeconómicas, tecnológicas y ambientales. Se realizó un análisis sistémico para examinar cómo dichos factores afectan la calidad del maní a medida que pasan por la cadena productiva. Los resultados de nuestro estudio ofrecen amplias perspectivas sobre los desafíos de prevenir las aflatoxinas y proteger la seguridad alimentaria en Haití. Les aflatoxines représentent un danger pour la sécurité alimentaire et leur présence a été signalée dans des échantillons d'arachide en Haïti. Cet article utilise l'approche interdisciplinaire de l'analyse des filières pour examiner les différents facteurs qui participent à l'altération de la qualité des produits du producteur au consommateur final. Les résultats mettent en évidence des contraintes politiques, organisationnelles, institutionnelles, socioéconomiques, technologiques et environnementales. Un schéma systémique montre les liens entre ces facteurs et la manière dont ils contribuent à affecter la qualité des produits dans la filière arachide. Cette étude ouvre ainsi sur une meilleure compréhension des défis relatifs à la prévention des aflatoxines et la préservation de l'innocuité alimentaire en Haïti. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This article proposes an annotated review of «De liberalitate et parsimonia», chapter XVI of Nicholas Macchiavello’s The Prince. It addresses how the Florentine author exposes the exceptionalities of misery and liberality as a mechanism of adaptation and interpretation of political reality. Both misery and liberality are part of a schema that expresses the nuances, exceptions, and twilights of real politics as well as the limits of human virtues. Also, this article dialogues with other Macchiavello’s texts (letters and Discorsi) and other chapters of The Prince.

In this article, we argue that destitution economies of migration control are specific circuits of exchange and value constituted by migration control practices that produce migrant and refugee destitution. Comparative analysis of three case studies, including border encampment in Thailand, deprivation in U.S. immigration detention centers, and deterrence through destitution in the United Kingdom, demonstrate that circuits of value depend on the detachment of workers from citizenship and simultaneously produce both migrant destitution and new forms of value production. Within destitution economies, migration and asylum's particular juridico-political position as domestic, foreign, and securitized allows legal regimes to produce migrants and asylum seekers as distinct economic subjects: forsaken recipients of aid. Although they might also work for pay, we argue that destitute migrants and asylum seekers have value for others through the grinding labor of living in poverty. That is, in their categorization as migrants and asylum seekers, they occupy a particular position in relation to economic circuits. These economic circuits of migration control, in turn, rely on the destitution of mobile people. Our approach advances political geographies of migration, bordering, and exclusion as well as economic geographies of marketization and value, arguing that the predominance of political analysis and critique of immigration and asylum regimes obscures how those regimes produce circuits of value in and through law, state practices, and exclusion. Furthermore, law, state power, and forced mobility constitute circuits of value and marketization. Conceptualizing these migration control practices as destitution economies illuminates novel transformations of the political and economic geographies of migration, borders, and inequality.

This paper deals with the comic-satirical form of the book Raymundo Curupyra, o Caypora, by Glauco Mattoso. It remembers that his 200 sonnets of low genre, decasyllabic verse and assonant rhymes abba/abba/cdc/dcd compose, in the sequence in which they are ordered, narrative sets. Jokingly titled “cautos causos”, they form an ironically lyrical novel whose subject matter is the temporalities of the actions of Raymundo Curupyra. The comic inadequacies of his acts are narrated by Craque, “perfeito/ malandro brasileiro da selecta/ralé miscigenada” (Sonnet 107), who, having aids, jumps tragically from the Martinelli building, defeated by himself and by São Paulo city. The paper proposes that the principle – and the limit – of the acts of Craque's lyrical speech is the misery that fornicates with lust. That is: the paper proposes that the book effectuates the tired jest or the burlesque melancholy characteristic of a serious-comic portrait of São Paulo and the contemporary Brazilian society. --- DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.25094/rtp.2017n22a444

A profecia de Amós é um clamor por justiça social. Em tempos de opressão, o pobre era esmagado pelo sistema político enquanto os poderosos enriqueciam. Este mesmo movimento permanece sendo observado quando paramos para analisar como algumas tragédias a exemplo do rompimento da barragem de rejeitos em Mariana e Brumadinho (MG) expõem as deficiências e as violências sofridas pelos povos, especialmente o latino-americano. O processo que vamos chamar de “esmagamento do pobre”, visto na profecia de Amós, vai se modernizando e violentando aqueles que não têm acesso a justiça e não gozam dos direitos pregados por Jesus nos evangelhos.

This study aims to analyze the relationship between literature and poverty, through its symbolic form, in Roniwalter Jatobá's short story Insônia, part of the anthology Contos Antológicos de Roniwalter Jatobá, organized by Luis Ruff ato. For this purpose, we work with several concepts that serve as theoretical input and, subsequently, as critical categories of analysis. In this study, etymologies, metaphors and concepts by Giorgio Agamben, Hans Blumenberg and other theorists thatserve as figures of thought, are implicated to reflect on the representation of poverty, misery and work in Brazilian literature and culture.

This paper explores the problem of managing misery and its effects throughout the Middle Ages and part of Modernity. It examines the feudal manor confessional and ecclesiastical social assistance, as well as the assistance of brotherhoods and guilds, and also philanthropy and mutualism. It evidences that this problem and its effects have been subject to management attempts from a mixture of assistance and repression. Studying the operation of the poor laws, workhouses and charity ateliers, also evidences the relationship between assistance and compulsion for work, as well as the moral supervision of the objects of assistance.

Needed to be aware of the need to build an intercultural society, awareness must be assumed in all social spheres, where stands the role play education. A role of transcendental, since it must promote educational spaces to form people with virtues and powers that allow them to live together / as in multicultural contexts and social diversities (sometimes uneven) in an increasingly globalized and interconnected world, and foster the development of feelings of civic belonging shared before the neighborhood, city, region and country, allowing them concern and critical judgement to marginalization, poverty, misery and inequitable distribution of wealth, causes of structural violence, but at the same time, wanting to work for the welfare and transformation of these scenarios. Since these budgets, it is important to know the approaches and models of intercultural education that have been developed so far, analysing their impact on the contexts educational where apply.

[es] En este trabajo procuramos realizar una aproximación teórica y metodológica a la medición de la pobreza extrema en Argentina en la última década del siglo XX. Se desarrolló para ello la Tasa de Miseria de los Hogares (TMH), la cual, utilizando información de los Censos Nacionales de Población, Hogares y Viviendas, puede ser detectada y representada cartográficamente en Argentina en 1991 y 2001. Los resultados definen la fragmentación territorial existente entre el territorio del Norte Grande Argentino y el resto del país. Asimismo los pronósticos no son alentadores, se detecta un aumento de dicha fragmentación en los primeros años del siglo XXI. [fr] Dans cet article procède à une approche théorique et méthodologique à la mesure de l’extrême pauvreté en Argentine durant la dernière décennie du XXe siècle. A été développé pour les taux de pauvreté des ménages (TMH), qui, utilisant les informations du recensement national de population et des logements peuvent être détectés et représenté cartographique en Argentine en 1991 et 2001. Les résultats définissent la fragmentation territoriale entre le nord du territoire de l’Argentine et le reste du pays. Il a également prévisions ne sont pas encourageantes, provoque une augmentation de la fragmentation dans les premières années de ce siècle.

Junior Masferrer, fictional character, grandson of salvadoran Alberto Masferrer recounts a conversation he had with Nussbaum Sen, another fictional character that reflects the thinking of the american philosopher Nussbaum and economist Sen, around a topical issue in Colombia: death by starvation some children in Colombia and in general the lack of a shared food and minimum vital for all the families of our nation. Consequently the article briefly reflects on his life and updates in one synthesis, the proposal of that salvadoran citizen about vital minimum. Such dialogues figurative reference to develop from a focus hermeneutical constructivist approach. Our conclusion is delivered thus: It is necessary the misery of a percentage of the population for a Latin American nation like Colombia continue growing? [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Elaborou-se um alimento natural, destinado à complementação alimentar de populações carentes, em programas de combate à fome e desnutrição humana. O experimento foi realizado no sentido de se analisar duas misturas obtidas de matérias-prima à base de cana-de-açúcar, soja, mandioca, banana e lêvedo de cerveja, na proporção em massa seca de 5,0 x 0,5 x 0,2 x 0,2 x 0,1, respectivamente, e uma testemunha obtida com apenas caldo-de-cana. A primeira mistura, cujo produto final foi identificado por PR1, foi composta por: caldo de cana, proteína integral de soja, farinha crua de mandioca, farinha de banana e levedo de cerveja. E a segunda mistura cujo produto final foi identificado por PR2, foi composta por: caldo de cana, leite de soja em pó, farinha crua de mandioca, banana seca, em pedaços e lêvedo de cerveja. Na terceira mistura ou testemunha, cujo produto final foi identificado por PR3, havia somente caldo de cana natural.

The experimental design was defined as two mixtures obtained from raw materials based on sugar cane, soybean, cassava, banana, and beer yeast at the weight ratio of 5.0 × 0.5 × 0.2 × 0.2 × 0.1, respectively. The first mixture, whose final product was identified as PR1, was cane juice, whole soybean protein, raw cassava flour, banana flour, and beer yeast. The second mixture, whose final product was identified as PR2, was cane juice, soybean milk powder, raw cassava flour, sun-dried flour, and beer yeast. The third mixture or check, whose final product was identified as PR3, was cane juice natural only. Every 100 g of PR1 presented 237 kcal, moisture content of 14%, 7.5% proteins, 0.7% lipids, 1% ash, 0.8% raw fiber, and 76% carbohydrates. Contents of pectin (soluble and total), vitamin C, micronutrients (Fe, Mn, Cu, and Zn), macronutrients (K, Mg, and P), and antinutritional factors are within the recommended levels. Every 100 g of PR2 presented 267 kcal, moisture content of 14% 5% proteins, 1% lipids, 1% ash, 0.6% raw fiber, and 79% carbohydrates. Contents of pectin (soluble and total), vitamin C, micronutrients (Fe, Mn, Cu, and Zn), macronutrients (K, Mg, and P), and antinutritional factors are within the recommended levels. Every 100 g of PR3 presented 279 kcal, moisture content 5%, 0.7% proteins, 1.0% ash, 0.07% raw fiber, and 93% carbohydrates. The products were also submitted to microbiological analysis, textural and sensorial tests, with satisfactory results to the human consume.

Texto escrito en el marco de la investigación de la Tesis de Doctorado Ciencias Sociales de FLACSO, en curso. Se refiere a la comunidad de los veranadores del Alto Neuquén y aborda temas de comunicación social, analizando las perspectivas de un reputado periodista nacional y la de los sujetos analizados, que difieren en formas y contenidos. Mientras el “yo-testifical” del periodista construye una realidad de miseria y abulia, esperando que la modernidad la supere, los actores testimonian sobre una comunidad capaz de afirmarse en su cultura y abordar con éxito los desafíos aculturalizantes de la globalización.

The nineties meant the deepening of the practice of a new order that responded to the neoliberal model. This model created conditions of instability, corruption, rising unemployment and concentration of wealth, which would have a recognized impact on the evolution of poverty in the Norte Grande Argentino (NGA), the area most lacking in the country according various demographic variables. In this territory we identified the critical nuclei in relation to the concentration of misery at the beginning and end of the decade. One of these nuclei corresponds to the Chaco campesino-aborigen. In this paper we analyze the main territorial processes occurring in each of these sectors, which could be associated with certain behaviors. Within these processes interested investigate the changes in the masses of crops, livestock, the number and area of farms and the population dynamics. As sources of information were used National Census of Population and Housing 1991 and 2001, the National Agricultural Census of 1988 and 2002 and vital statistics of the period between censuses.La década de 1990 significó para Argentina la profundización de la práctica de un nuevo orden que respondía al modelo neoliberal. Dicho modelo creó condiciones de inestabilidad, corrupción, aumento de la desocupación y concentración de la riqueza, lo cual tendría una reconocida incidencia en la evolución de la miseria en el Norte Grande Argentino (NGA), el área más carente del país según distintas variables sociodemográficas. En este territorio se identificaron los núcleos más críticos en relación a la concentración de miseria a principios y finales de dicha década. Uno de estos núcleos corresponde al Chaco Aborigen. La miseria presentó avances, persistencias y descenso en este núcleo. En este trabajo se analizan los principales procesos territoriales ocurridos en la década en cada uno de estos sectores, los cuales podrían asociarse con determinados comportamientos. Dentro de tales procesos se pretende indagar sobre los cambios en las grandes masas de cultivo, la ganadería, la cantidad y superficie de las explotaciones agropecuarias y la dinámica de la población. Como fuentes de información se utilizaron los Censos Nacionales de Población, Hogares y Viviendas de 1991 y 2001, los Censos Nacionales Agropecuarios de 1988 y 2002 y las estadísticas vitales del periodo intercensal.

Em muitos contos literários de temática açoriana, a ilha é vista como um espaço negativo que confina as personagens a uma existência solitária, enclausurada e atormentada por condições geográficas, meteorológicas, geológicas, económicas e sociais. Todavia, essa clausura não é apenas física, mas também psicológica, pois muitas personagens carregam consigo uma prisão interior. Assim, deparamo-nos com textos que possuem uma dimensão lírica, não deixando, todavia, de apresentar uma forte ligação com espaços localizados.

The pandemic of the 1940s in Spain was hunger but fasting was not the only manifestation of the misery of those years. For the vast majority of the Spanish population an extraordinary effort was needed to ensure just bare survival, and, even so, those on lower incomes were scarcely able to. Deterioration in living conditions are equally explainable by Francoist labour policies which led to reductions in wages and salaries, and by the growth of the black market, in which, given the inconsistent availability of basic necessities at normal prices, it was necessary to buy a significant proportion of essential commodities. Did the misery that characterized the postwar period influence popular attitudes towards Francoism? In the context of a dictatorship that exercised a rigid social control, employing repression as a primary instrument, a passivity which did not imply acceptance spread among the workers and consequently the regime was able to do no more than neutralize dissent.

The phenomenon of poverty shows clear- ly the overflow of its economic dimension towards a powerful moral dimension, which has caused (and causes) contradictory social attitudes: acceptance or rejection; blaming or understanding; charity or duties, liability or inevitable fate; involvement or alienation; visibility or invisibility. This work analyzes the moral connotations that have been historically forming the concept of poverty to lead the paradigms with which today we conceive it and from which we intend to face it and fight it.

It explores the presence and role of the concerns proper of post-colonial approaches present in the novel. It comes in evidence, how Mamita Yumai behind this economic politic approach of condemnation, as a global hierarchic context in which its plot is organized, allows us to glimpse the existence of a diversity of ethnic groups, nationalities and identities that converge in an exotic Costa Rica, far away from the one made by the imaginary plateau and that in middle of its ami- imperialist rhetoric, allows us to sense that in the fight against foreign and native plundering won't be achieved an effective integration of popular forces, if the specific nature and barriers that such diversity implies, are not overcome, respected and comprehended.
