Authors: Cronin Kevin
Published: September 2022

Hamstring injuries carry a high injury burden and are more prevalent in males than females. This study is designed as a cross-sectional study with two groups. Forty elite rugby union players (20 males; 20 females) will have their hamstring muscle architecture (fascicle length, pennation angle and muscle thickness) measured using B-mode ultrasound. Muscle architecture is a modifiable risk factor associated with hamstring injuries. The aim of this study will be to determine whether differences exist in the hamstring muscles (Bicep Femoris long head, Bicep Femoris short head, Semitendinosus and Semimembranosus) architectural characteristics of elite- level male and female rugby union players.
Direito à saúde e segurança do paciente enquanto direitos fundamentais no Brasil
Authors: Silveira Cristiane , Robazzi Maria Lucia do Carmo Cruz , Sanches Roberta Seron , Resck Zélia Marilda Rodrigues
Published: September 2022

Objective: to discuss the right to health and patient safety as fundamental rights in Brazil. Methods: this is a descriptive, reflective study. Scientific texts were used through electronic searches in MEDLINE databases via PubMed and LILACS. Brazilian legislation and other documents from the World Health Organization, the National Health Surveillance Agency, and the Ministry of Health were included in the analysis. The study was conducted between August 2021 and February 2021, with no data cutoff. Results: with the recognition of health as a social right in the Constitution, the vulgar concept of health as the absence of disease has been defused, and such an expanded concept requires public policies to solve or minimize problems related to patient safety. The right to health must be based on the realization of fundamental rights and on the quality of health systems that must be offered by the state. Thus, patient safety is a characteristic of the quality of health care and a factor that must be considered by jurisdictions. In Brazil, there is a legislative gap on patient safety. The resolutions of the National Health Surveillance Authority and the National Patient Safety Program are the guiding documents for health care. Conclusion: it is noteworthy that the law can be considered as a core mechanism in the development and implementation of health care with quality and safety, since the law is the strongest instrument of intervention in society, which makes it necessary to search for specific legislation in Brazil.

Published: September 2022

Objective: analyze the Brazilian National Program for Patient Safety considering the theoretical framework of patients' rights. Methods: descriptive study based on the patients' human rights, developed by Aline Albuquerque, in addition to an international bibliography on the subject. Results: this study showed that the Brazilian National Program for Patient Safety was not designed with patients’ rights as a central element, especially regarding the right to participate in decision making and receive information. Conclusion: the Brazilian National Program for Patient Safety includes advances in the field of patient safety. However, patients’ rights are not included in the Consolidation Regulation of the Unified Health System No. 5/2017. Therefore, it is imperative that there is specific national legislation on patients' rights and that this forms the basis for the restructuring of the Brazilian National Program for Patient Safety.

Authors: Smelov S. V. , Ш. Е.
Published: September 2022

Objective. The aim is to identify patterns of lifetime topographic and anatomical relationships of the rectum and uterus based on magnetic resonance imaging data to justify transvaginal surgical access to the abdominal cavity through the posterior vaginal fornix.
Material and methods. The study was performed on 58 results of MRI examinations of pelvis of women of average age 41.355.45 years on the EXCELART Vantage Atlas 1.5 TSL tomograph., Toshiba, using a standard combination of pulse sequences (in modes T1-VI, T2-VI, T-1 Fsat, T-2 Fsat, DWI, T-2 STIR, section thickness 3-5 mm) without I / V contrast in a moderately filled bladder using a standard combination of pulse sequences in typical (anteversio-anteflexio) and variant (retro, sinistro et dextrodeviatio uteri) positions of the uterus.
Results. It was found that in more than half of cases, the supravaginal portion of the rectum, along with the sacral flexure, is supplemented by a flexure in the frontal plane. It causes close or distant anatomical location of the rectum to the uterus. This position of organs determines the shape of recto-uterine pouch and tactics of performing transvaginal accesses to the abdominal cavity through the posterior vaginal fornix. A narrow shape of excavation serves as a reason for refusal of interventions, a wide shape is a favorable anatomical prerequisite for the implementation. The vaginal portion of rectum is in most cases represented by a sacral flexure and only in a small number of cases it is supplemented by a flexure in the frontal plane.
Conclusions. The degree of anatomical proximity of the rectum to the uterus (maximum anatomical proximity or distance), determines the shape of the recto-uterine pouch. It is crucial for performing transvaginal surgical access to the abdominal cavity through the posterior vaginal fornix.

The analysis aimed to identify mushroom production and marketing problems by different stakeholders in Bangladesh, specifically in the Dhaka district. It also seeks to improve the mushroom marketing system for domestic markets. The research was carried out in the Savar Upazila, located in the Dhaka district. One hundred twenty-one farmers were randomly picked and asked questions using an interview schedule to collect data. Pearson's chi-squared test was utilized to investigate the degree to which socio-demographic factors and the response variable are related. In the end, a multivariate method known as logistic regression analysis is used to study the relationships between each predictor variable and the result variable that pertains to the respondents. The result revealed significant effects of gender, farmer's education, and information sources for intermediate and experienced mushroom cultivators. However, land size, scientific cultivation, sources of capital, packaging, and sale were stronger among expert mushroom farmers than the new and mediocre mushroom farmers. This research provides valuable insights to improve the mushroom marketing system for domestic markets.

Published: September 2022

The aim of this study is to weight the factors affecting the motivation of health professionals according to the order of importance in line with the opinions of the participants and to rank these factors from the most important to the least important. The population of the research consists of health professionals working in a private hospital operating in Bandırma district of Balıkesir province, Turkey. Opinions of 62 health professionals were evaluated. The Fuzzy Analytical Hierarchy Process (FAHP) method was used to rank the motivation factors. It is seen that economic factors are the most important criteria on the motivation of health professionals than psychosocial and managerial and organizational factors. The sub-criterion with the highest priority among the economic factors criterion is "wage". When the psychosocial factors are evaluated, the criterion of "value and status" and “recognition” are important; among the managerial and organizational factors, the criterion of "fair and open management policy" was found to be more important on motivation. Based on these results it is suggested that in order to improve health professional motivation the wages can be improved and the further development of policy and practice that recognizes the value and status of the health professionals and fair and open management policy can be adopted.

Authors: DENİZ Burcu , İCİL TUNCER Aslı
Published: September 2022

Günümüz postmodern sanal kabileleri, arkaik dönem kabileleriyle bazı noktalarda ayrılmakla birlikte pek çok ortak noktada benzerlik göstermektedir. Modernizmin ve devamında postmodernizmin önerisi olan bireycilik yerini topluluk, cemaat ve kabilecilik anlayışına bırakmıştır. Böylelikle birey odaklı yaklaşım yerine, kabile ve kabile içi iletişim odaklı yaklaşım benimsenmiştir. Bu yaklaşımda arkaik kabilelere özgü oluşumun yanında topluluk dinamikleri de ön plana çıkmıştır. Günümüz arkaik kabileleri olarak nitelendirilebilecek olan sanal kabilelere aidiyet hissi ile bağlı olan üyeler, oluşturdukları grup içi sosyal bağlar ve etkileşim ile oluşan bağlantı değerini tüketilen nesneden ileriye taşımıştır. Bu araştırmanın amacı, postmodern kabilecilik yaklaşımı çerçevesinde arkaik kabilelerden günümüz postmodern sanal kabilelerine geçişin irdelenmesi; bireycilik yaklaşımına karşıt bir duruş olarak ele alınan kabilecilik yaklaşımının ve bağlantı değerinin, günümüz tüketicileri üzerindeki öneminin ortaya koyulmasıdır. Çalışmada Harry Potter temelinde bir marka kabilesi olan Hogwarts Türkleri grubunun, topluluk unsuru değerleri, kabile içi etkileşim yoğunluğu, oluşan bağlantı değeri, bu değerin günlük tüketim pratiğine etkisi, üyelerin markaya yükledikleri anlam, öneri ve beklentilerin neler olduğu irdelenmiştir. Araştırmanın örneklemini, etkileşim yoğunluğuna bağlı olarak belirlenen Hogwarts Türkleri topluluğu ve üye etkileşimleri oluştururken, yöntem olarak içerik analizi, veri toplama tekniği olarak nodexl sosyal ağ analizi programı kullanılmıştır. Örneklem, 14 Mart 2020–01 Ocak 2021 zaman aralığında Hogwarts Türkleri twitter grubunda paylaşılan gönderi ve yorumlardan oluşmaktadır. Araştırma sonucunda, Hogwarts Türkleri grubunun topluluk unsurları olarak belirlenen “ritüel ve gelenek”, “topluluk bilinci” ve “ahlaki sorumluluk” değerlerine sahip olduğu bulgulanmıştır. Ayrıca topluluğun etkileşim yoğunluğunun yüksek olduğu, bağlantı değerinin oluştuğu ve bu değerin tüketim pratiklerine etki ettiği gözlemlenmiştir.

İmgenin Doğası ve Simülasyon Kavramı Üzerinden Matrix Filmine Bakış
Authors: KOCA Serhat
Published: September 2022

Gerçeğin yorumlanması her zaman görsel algılama ile yakından ilişkili olmuştur. Görmenin, insan hayatında dilden önce var olması, gerçekle olan ilişkide görmeyi öncelikli kılmıştır ancak görmenin, bilmenin aracı haline gelmesi aydınlanma düşüncesi ile doruk noktasına ulaşmıştır. Bilimsel bilgiye ulaşmanın yöntemi olarak gözlem ve bilgiye ulaşmanın araçları olarak görüntüleme araçları (fotoğraf makinesinin icadı da kökeninde bilimsel çalışmalara dayanmaktadır) bu düşünce biçiminin göstergeleridir. Görselliğin somut kaydedilebilir olması ve sınırsız çoğaltılabilirliği ile birlikte toplumsal yapıda meydana gelen değişimlere yönelik tartışmalar günümüzde yeni bir boyut kazanmıştır. Bugün somut gerçekliği kaydetmek yerine somut gerçekliğe ihtiyaç duymadan imgelerin üretilebildiği bir dönem yaşanmaktadır. İmge, temsil gücünü yitirirken bir taraftan da toplumsal hayatın tamamına egemen olmaya başlamıştır. Jean Baudrillard, bu değişimi Batı toplumları merkezinde incelemiş ve simülasyon kavramı ile yaşanan değişimin eleştirel bir çözümlemesini yapmıştır. Gilles Deleuze ise simülasyon kavramını kendi felsefi kuramının merkezine almış ve kavramı olumlamıştır. Bu çalışmada bu iki düşünürün simülasyon kavramını yorumlayışları imgenin doğasında meydana gelen değişimler bağlamında ortaya konmuş ve bu farklılıklar Matrix filmi üzerinden yorumlanmıştır.

Academic monitoring is implemented at higher learning institutions to allow students and instructors to communicate academically, especially learning progress. However, the system cannot monitor student performance on an ongoing basis, such as class attendance, continuous assessment records and assignment submissions. Personalised learning analytics use student-generated data and analytical models to gather learning patterns so that instructors may advise on students’ learning. Although various studies provide insight into the analytical framework of learning, attention to self-regulated meaningful learning is still insufficient. This study aims to propose a personalised learning analytics system designed by a student that unifies the self-regulated learning components: plan, monitor, and evaluate the learning commitment, and activates alert of student’s achievement for close monitoring and further intervention by the instructor. For this reason, the procedure for analysing the learning pattern for experiment subjects such as Internet of Things, Data Analysis and System Management. Personalised learning analytics has been designed to deliver an interactive learning analytics environment that stimulates students to focus on the achievement of problem-solving skills and enhance the instructor’s decision to support students’ concern.

Published: September 2022

Around 5 million people in India are with hearing impairment. The higher education opportunities for students with hearing impairment are very limited. Only six institutes in the country provide undergraduate degrees to students with hearing impairment, according to accessible records. Academic achievement in the past, student background characteristics, and eLearning elements are all aspects that influence a student's academic performance. Hearing impairment-related characteristics may also need to be considered for a student with hearing impairment. Identification of these elements may aid teachers in developing individualized teaching plans for students. This paper tries to find the features that affect the performance of students with hearing impairment. The features included are socioeconomic, previous academic scores, and deafness-related factors. The dataset includes data of 224 undergraduate students who have hearing impairment. The preadmission data is used to analyze the performance of students with hearing impairment. The students are classified into different levels – low, medium, and high according to their performance. Different machine learning models are used to classify the students – Logistic Regression, Decision Tree, Support Vector Machine, KNN, Random Forest, and Naïve Bayes. The Random Forest model performed better compared to other models.
Low-Light Image Enhancement and Target Detection Based on Deep Learning
Authors: Yao Zhuo
Published: September 2022

Most computer vision applications demand input images to meet their specific requirements. To complete different vision tasks, e.g., object detection, object recognition, and object retrieval, low-light images must be enhanced by different methods to achieve different processing effects. The existing image enhancement methods, which are based on non-physical imaging models, and image generation methods, which are based on deep learning, are not ideal for low-light image processing. To solve the problem, this paper explores low-light image enhancement and target detection based on deep learning. Firstly, a simplified expression was constructed for the optical imaging model of low-light images, and a Haze-line was proposed for color correction of low-light images, which can effectively enhance low-light images based on the global background light and medium transmission rate of the optical imaging model of such images. Next, network framework adopted by the proposed low-light image enhancement model was introduced in detail: the framework includes two deep domain adaptation modules that realize domain transformation and image enhancement, respectively, and the loss functions of the model were presented. To detect targets based on the output enhanced image, a joint enhancement and target detection method was proposed for low-light images. The effectiveness of the constructed model was demonstrated through experiments.

Published: September 2022

Breast cancer is a leading cause of death among women. The death rate is reduced when this disease is detected early with the help of mammography. Deep learning is a method that radiologists use and request to help them make more accurate diagnoses and enhance their outcome predictions. This work presents a novel strategy comprising a pre-processing method and a mix of morphological and multi-thresholding using Otsu's technique based segmentation technique, which was tested on the Mini-MIAS dataset of 322 images. For Speed-Up Robust Features (SURF) selection, the inbuilt feature extraction is done utilizing multiple colour and texture features approaches. At the classification level, a new layer is added that performs 70 percent training and 30 percent testing of the deep neural network. There are two primary steps in the training phase: (1) Develop a model for dividing breast tissue into dense and non-dense categories. (2) Develop a model for classifying breast regions into mass and non-mass. The results show that the accuracy rate of the proposed automated DL approach is higher than that of other state-of-the-art models. The average accuracy (ACC) rates of the three types of cancer, i.e., normal, benign, and malignant cancer, utilizing the suggested method are 91 percent, 94 percent, and 93 percent, respectively, according to experimental results.

THE ROLE OF CITIES IN ENDING VIOLENCE AGAINST CHILDREN IN SOUTH AFRICA
Authors: Fambasayi Rongedzayi , Katsidzira Rejoice Shamiso
Published: September 2022

The global development agenda acknowledges the role of cities in achieving the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and addressing contemporary challenges caused by urbanization. SDG 11 aspires to make “cities inclusive, safe, resilient and sustainable” by 2030, even as the global urban population continues to grow exponentially, along with — even more rapidly — the population of children living in cities. Cities are the level of government closest to people’s daily lives, and are best placed to address the numerous challenges and rights violations that children are exposed to, including sexual exploitation and abuse, violence, trafficking, and child labour. SDG 16.2 has the primary aim of ending the “abuse, exploitation, trafficking and all forms of violence against children”. Through the lens of the subsidiarity principle, this article argues that localization to the city level of law and policy strategies that address violence against children can provide normative and powerful legal tools for their protection. Although there is developing scholarly literature on the global aspirations expressed in SDG 11 and SDG 16.2, little has been offered from a child rights perspective on the role of city governments in the prevention of, and protection of children from, violence.
New Ways for Controlling the Molecular-Weight Characteristics and Branching Distribution in Polyethylene Obtained over Supported Catalysts Containing Bis(imino)pyridyl Complexes of Fe(II) and Bis(imine) Complexes of Ni(II)
Authors: Matsko M. A. , Semikolenova N. V. , Zakharov V. A.
Published: September 2022

The paper describes ways for controlling the molecular structure of polyethylene (PE) produced over supported catalysts containing bis(imino)pyridyl complexes of Fe(II) (LFeCl2) and bis(imine) complexes of Ni(II) (*LFeCl2), which are anchored on silica gel modified by the introduction of alumina (SiO2(Al)). Under variation of polymerization conditions over LFeCl2 /SiO2(Al) catalysts, linear PE with different molecular weight and controllable molecular-weight distribution (MWD) was obtained. Homopolymerization of ethylene over *LNiBr2 /SiO2(Al) catalysts led to the formation of branched PE with the molecular-weight and thermophysical characteristics close to the low-density polyethylene produced by ethylene copolymerization with α-olefins over supported metallocene catalysts and supported Zieglertype catalysts. A method was proposed for constructing the supported bicomponent catalysts containing LFeCl2 and *LNiBr2 complexes anchored on the SiO2(Al) support for the deliberate production of polyethylene with the required molecular structure. There are examples of obtaining the linear PE with bimodal MWD on a bicomponent supported catalyst containing two different LFeCl2 complexes, the PE with controllable branching distribution on a bicomponent catalyst synthesized by anchoring LFeCl2 and *LNiBr2 complexes on the SiO2(Al) support, and an example of modifying the industrial chromium oxide catalyst by introducing the LFeCl2 complex for the control of MWD and branching distribution in the produced polyethylene.
Effect of the Precursor and Synthesis Mode on the Properties of Hematite for the Preparation of Promoted Iron Oxide Catalysts
Authors: Dvoretskaya A. N. , Anikanova L. G. , Dvoretskii N. V.
Published: September 2022

The fine crystal structure of hematite samples used to prepare potassium-promoted iron oxide dehydrogenation catalysts has been studied by X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. Samples of α-Fe2O3 were obtained under nonequilibrium conditions from several precursors under different thermolysis regimes. The most important characteristic of hematite, which determines the activity and selectivity of the catalyst based on it, is the fine crystal structure (TCS). The TCS of hematite determines the phase composition of the catalyst. The TCS of hematite is formed during the synthesis of hematite and is determined by the nature of the precursor, the temperature of sample synthesis, and the temperature gradient of the rate of removal of gaseous thermolysis products. The highest activity was demonstrated by a catalyst prepared on the basis of hematite with mosaic blocks of 70–90 nm, with a minimum concentration of SF due to half and quaternary dislocations. Such hematite was obtained by thermolysis of iron sulfate at 950 K under fluidized bed conditions and a low temperature gradient. Hematite from iron carbonate is not recommended for the synthesis of a catalyst due to the high concentration of low-temperature SF, which leads to the formation of catalytically inactive potassium β-polyferrite.
Equivalent circuit of a dielectric in a wide frequency range (0 Hz – 500 MHz)
Authors: Dmitrikov Vladimir F. , Shushpanov Dmitry V.
Published: September 2022

Based on the measured impedance of the dielectrics an equivalent high frequency (0 Hz - 500 MHz) circuit model was built. The equivalent circuit model was built taking into account the physical processes occurring in the dielectric. The attempt explaining why the frequency characteristics (modulus and phase) of the dielectric complex impedance have such a character in a wide frequency band (up to 500 MHz) was made. It was shown that for constructing an equivalent circuit model (structure and parameters), measuring only the dielectrics resistance modulus is not enough. It is also necessary to measure the phase of the dielectric complex resistance, which is ignored in many works on the synthesis of an e dielectric equivalent circuit.

Bioactive materials of natural origin have great demand in industry and medicine due to their versatility and useful properties. The main purpose of this work is to prepare biocomposites for the dual purpose of modified silk fibroin (Bombyx mori L.), which protects against the destructive effects of bioactive, antioxidant and ultraviolet rays. For this purpose, an aqueous extract of autumn leaves of the anthocyanin-rich smoke tree plant (Cotinus coggygria L.) was applied. 2% thiourea solution was used to increase the durability of the modified SF to external influences and for use in textiles. The intensity of free radicals in silk fibroin-anthocyanin (SFA) and silk fibroin-anthocyanin-thiourea (SFAT) biocomposites modified by the Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) method was studied. Maximum adsorption time was determined 20 minutes and the intensity of free radicals in SFA bio-composite was 80-85% and in SFAT biocomposite 50-55% in relation to silk fibroin untreated. For biomedical use of SFA, the radical scavenger activity kinetics were studied on a UV-2700 spectrophotometer and radical capture activity was calculated: RSA% (bioextract) = 73.52 ± 0.5, RSA% (SF) = 6.42 ± 0.4, RSA% (SFA) = 45.23 ± 0.8
African Regional Integration Polity for Economic Growth and the Global-View on Africa Organizational Development
Authors: Enaifoghe Andrew
Published: September 2022

The paper’s purpose is to explore the policy implementation of African polity amidst economic integration development and sustainable growth. Most African countries have, over the years, suffered from severe macroeconomic disequilibria, foreign debt service burdens, over-valued currencies, and lack of policy Implementation; this caused linger highly behind in terms of development. In these situations, it is logical for one to expect the full integration of Africa in terms of trade and migration, using the Southern African subregional integration as a case study. Qualitatively, this paper collected and analyzed data based on content, using secondary sources from different domains. The neo-functionalist theory was applied, and findings show a failure to meet set targets in the SADC plan, which has established a bad precedent for the subregions for African development. The failure is seen as lacking ethical leadership. It recommends that there is a need for African states to improve their infrastructure, recognize the capacity of the private sector to generate wealth, and induce development with open economies to member states..

Tuberculosis is one of the first most common causes of death in the world alongside HIV/AIDS, causing considerable mortality globally.
Tuberculosis is also accompanied by hematological alterations although the alteration related to the disease is not well determined yet and
showed variation in different studies. This study aimed at evaluating hematological profiles in pulmonary tuberculosis patients in Metema
hospital and Gondar referral Hospital, North West Ethiopia. A case-control study design was conducted from January to July 2018. A total of
88 blood samples (44 from cases and 44 from control groups) were collected. The collected blood samples were tested using a Hematology
analyzer (Sysmex) for hematological profiles. The mean+standard deviation of hemoglobin, hematocrit, and red blood cell count of the cases
were significantly lower than the control groups (P< 0.05). However, platelet and total white blood cell counts; and erythrocyte sedimentation
rate were significantly increased as compared with control groups (p<0.05). Body mass index had significant positive associations with red
blood cell count, hemoglobin, and hematocrit (P < 0.05). Pulmonary Tuberculosis patients in this study showed hematological profile
abnormalities; where the red blood cell count, hematocrit and hemoglobin were significantly reduced. However, the total white blood cell count,
thrombocyte, and erythrocyte sedimentation rate of tuberculosis patients were significantly elevated than control groups. The factors
associated with hematological profile alterations require a due attention to prevent further complications and further studies should be
conducted.
O RETRATO DE UM BRASIL-QUE-PASSA-FOME

Published: September 2022

O artigo, ancorado no método materialista histórico-dialético, é produto das reflexões realizadas no grupo de estudos e pesquisas “Trabalho e Política Social na América Latina – Veias Abertas''. Trata-se de um estudo qualitativo que busca, com a obra de Josué de Castro e Carolina Maria de Jesus, relacionar a fome com a questão étnico-racial, desde a formação sócio-histórica brasileira, contribuindo para a apreensão da fome na dinâmica do capitalismo dependente. Josué revela, em sua obra, o caráter estrutural da fome e do racismo quando apresenta dados sobre as regiões assoladas pela fome, em decorrência das determinações histórico-sociais. Carolina, mulher, negra e favelada, relata a vivência diária da fome, explicitando o padrão de dominação e as violações, advindas da cor da sua pele.

Published: September 2022

O artigo tem por objetivo analisar a trajetória, os repertórios de ação e a incidência na política municipal de transporte coletivo e mobilidade urbana do movimento Tarifa Zero de Belo Horizonte (TZ-BH), no período 2013-2019. A metodologia envolveu revisão de literatura, levantamentos documentais e entrevistas semiestruturadas. O artigo parte da abordagem de movimentos sociais, especialmente mobilizando a noção de repertórios de ação e, em seguida, discute antecedentes e contextos do ativismo em torno do tema transporte coletivo e mobilidade urbana. A análise percorre a trajetória do TZ-BH e aponta para sua atuação no âmbito institucional, por meio da participação e interações com o governo, e extrainstitucional, tematizando a questão do transporte coletivo e mobilidade urbana como direito social. Em ambos os casos, influenciou circunstancialmente a política de transporte local.
FRACASSO ESCOLAR
Authors: Lima Marco Antônio Oliveira
Published: September 2022

A realidade concreta é constituída por mudanças econômicas que intervêm na cultura, educação e escola. Então, é preciso ter o entendimento de que os processos de ensino e aprendizagem são marcados por conflitos políticos, de classes antagônicas. Existem pedagogias e escolas que cerceiam os estudantes, indivíduos históricos e sociais, pertencentes às classes populares; inculcando nestes discentes, conteúdos que não dialogam com sua classe e nem com um viés crítico, que objetive educar para a autonomia e emancipação, tendo por resultado o fracasso escolar. Por via dialética, vislumbra-se que o referido objeto é decorrente de múltiplos fenômenos. O texto procura compreender o fracasso escolar junto à complexidade das contradições concretas da sociedade capitalista.
ESCOLA CÍVICO-MILITAR
Authors: Rosa Maria Aparecida Lima Piai , Carrais Rosimere Santos
Published: September 2022

Uma reclamação constante no ambiente escolar é a falta disciplina e, a solução que se propagou num senso comum, para resolver esse problema é a volta de uma educação autoritária com a proposta de militarização das escolas públicas. Nosso intuito com esta discussão é trazer à baila o conceito de disciplina/indisciplina e interesse, partindo do pragmatismo de John Dewey e da docilização dos corpos de Michel Foucault, ampliando as possibilidades de entendimento sobre esses conceitos, sobretudo, no âmbito escolar, instituição tão cara para o desenvolvimento humano e social.

Authors: Sparemberger Raquel Fabiana Lopes , Guesser Tania Angelita Iora
Published: September 2022

Com base nas discussões sobre o cinema e sua contribuição na construção de imaginários sociais coletivos, buscou-se, neste trabalho, apresentar uma reflexão sobre as variadas representações sociais demonstradas a partir do cinema, mais especificamente do filme Bacurau, de Kleber Mendonça Filho e Juliano Dornelles. As figuras de poder e de representação social são analisadas a partir do discurso fílmico, como forma de demonstrar como o cinema é prática e representação social no que se refere à esfera política em suas distintas encarnações históricas. O método de abordagem é o hipotético--dedutivo, com pesquisa qualitativa, descritiva e, essencialmente, de caráter bibliográfico.

O presente artigo objetiva analisar o instituto do impedimento do julgamento do processo pelo magistrado, uma vez que esse tenha tido contato prévio com a prova considerada ilícita - inovação legislativa trazida pelo chamado “pacote anticrime” (lei 13.964/19). A análise terá por base os princípios constitucionais processuais, notadamente os do devido processo legal, do juiz natural e da imparcialidade, bem como sua relação com o impedimento do magistrado em proferir sentença ou acórdão, a partir do momento em que há o conhecimento do conteúdo da prova ilícita. Atualmente, o tema encontra-se com a eficácia suspensa em virtude de decisão monocrática do Supremo Tribunal Federal, no aguardo de uma decisão definitiva acerca de sua constitucionalidade. Assim, presente trabalho almeja trazer apontamentos sobre a constitucionalidade do dispositivo, no intuito de amadurecer a aplicação desse instituto em nosso ordenamento jurídico.
CONTRIBUIÇÕES DA FENOMENOLOGIA SOCIOLÓGICA DE SCHUTZ PARA A PESQUISA SOBRE ALFABETIZAÇÃO DE MULHERES NEGRAS NA EDUCAÇÃO DE JOVENS E ADULTOS
Authors: Menezes Monica Clementino de , Cunha Júnior Adenilson Souza
Published: September 2022

Este texto, que é parte de uma dissertação de mestrado defendida no Programa de Pós-Graduação em Educação da Universidade Estadual do Sudoeste da Bahia (UESB), tem o objetivo de refletir sobre a pesquisa na alfabetização de mulheres negras na Educação de Jovens e Adultos com base na perspectiva da Fenomenologia Sociológica de Schutz. As interpretações deram-se por meio da abordagem qualitativa, cujo instrumento de geração de dados foi a entrevista semiestruturada. As participantes foram oito mulheres que se reconhecem como pretas ou pardas (negras), matriculadas em classes de alfabetização de EJA, em quatro escolas públicas municipais de Porto Seguro - Bahia. Para subsidiar o debate, as análises foram tecidas mediante pesquisa bibliográfica que buscou conhecer a Fenomenologia de Schutz enquanto uma Sociologia da vida cotidiana, que interpreta os fenômenos do mundo da vida pela intersubjetividade, as vivências, as motivações e os significados atribuídos pela consciência dos sujeitos. Nosso intento é analisar como o método fenomenológico pode contribuir para a compreensão das motivações que levam mulheres negras a retornar a salas de EJA. Os resultados apontam que as motivações para as mulheres negras retornarem às salas de aula é a busca por independência pessoal, social e financeira, bem como a necessidade de conviver com autonomia na sociedade da escrita, visto que ler e escrever constituem atos de liberdade. Com base na compreensão do legado de Schutz, as motivações surgem no mundo da vida imbuídas de intencionalidades que se concretizam nas experiências vivenciadas no cotidiano pelos sujeitos.
