Advanced oxidative processes (AOP) have been consolidated as an efficient treatment technique to degrade persistent contaminants. In addition to them, biosorption also emerges as a technique capable of removing both pollutants and intermediate products generated by other treatments such as AOP. Thus, this work evaluated the degradation and removal of the mixture of dyes Direct Red 23 and Direct Red 227 in aqueous solution (50 mg·L−1 of each). Preliminary tests showed that the photo-Fenton system under sunlight radiation was the most efficient, reaching a degradation ≥93%. For the adsorptive process using chicken eggshell, preliminary tests indicated that the ideal dosage of adsorbent was 8.0 g·L−1. For this process, a factorial design indicated the best working conditions, which demonstrated from the system adjusted well to the Elovich (kinetic) model and to the Freundlich and Sips models (equilibrium). When associating the two processes, AOP followed by adsorption achieved a total degradation/removal of ≈98% (for all λ) in a time of 60 min. Thus, the feasibility of the combined treatment is indicated.

Published: August 2020

Este trabajo presenta una revisión del estado actual del tratamiento de los lixiviados generados en los rellenos sanitarios (resa) en Colombia, teniendo en cuenta el impacto ambiental negativo generado como consecuencia del vertimiento de sus lixiviados, los cuales afectan directamente a las fuentes hídricas. Se realizó un diagnóstico que evidenció la existencia de 144 resa en Colombia. Además, con base en la aplicación de un filtro que contempló las variables cantidad de habitantes, cantidad de toneladas de residuos generados y caudal del lixiviado generado, se determinó que17 de estos resa eran aptos como objeto de estudio. De estos, según la normatividad aplicable y las últimas caracterizaciones realizadas por entes de control, todos están por encima de los límites permisibles, para el vertimiento de lixiviados, generando impactos negativos en algunos cuerpos de agua; principalmente por la presencia de contaminantes de alta toxicidad, como cadmio, cromo, plomo, bromo, zinc y mercurio, los cuales no pueden ser eliminados de manera natural en las fuentes de agua y derivan en bioacumulación y la ocurrencia de catástrofes ambientales. Con base en lo anterior, se compararon los tratamientos con mayor eficiencia para la remoción de este tipo de contaminantes empleados actualmente en Colombia, considerando, además, los parámetros fisicoquímicos de cada uno de los 17 resa estudiados. Como consecuencia, se determinó que el tratamiento con mejor eficiencia es la osmosis inversa. No obstante, se sugiere la implementación de pre tratamientos a lo largo del sistema de los resa. Así mismo, se determinó que el río Magdalena es el de mayor afectación debido a que 5 resa vierten sus lixiviados en este cuerpo de agua.

Authors: Sequi-Dominguez Irene , Alvarez-Bueno Celia , Martinez-Vizcaino Vicente , Fernandez-Rodriguez Rubén , del Saz Lara Alicia , Cavero-Redondo Iván
Published: August 2020

Background

Physical activity and lifestyle interventions, such as a healthy diet, have been proven to be effective approaches to manage metabolic syndrome. However, these interventions require great commitment from patients and clinicians owing to their economic costs, time consumption, and lack of immediate results.

Objective

The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to analyze the effect of mobile-based health interventions for reducing cardiometabolic risk through the promotion of physical activity and healthy lifestyle behaviors.

Methods

PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, and SPORTdiscus databases were searched for experimental studies evaluating cardiometabolic risk indicators among individuals with metabolic syndrome who were included in technology-assisted physical activity and lifestyle interventions. Effect sizes, pooled mean changes, and their respective 95% CIs were calculated using the DerSimonian and Laird method. Outcomes included the following clinical and biochemical parameters: body composition (waist circumference [WC] and BMI), blood pressure (systolic blood pressure [SBP] and diastolic blood pressure [DBP]), glucose tolerance (fasting plasma glucose [FPG] and glycated hemoglobin A1c [HbA1c]), and lipid profile (total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol [HDL-C], and triglycerides).

Results

A total of nine studies were included in the meta-analysis. Owing to the scarcity of studies, only pooled mean pre-post changes in the intervention groups were estimated. Significant mean changes were observed for BMI (−1.70 kg/m2, 95% CI −3.20 to −0.20; effect size: −0.46; P=.03), WC (−5.77 cm, 95% CI −9.76 to −1.77; effect size: −0.54; P=.005), SBP (−7.33 mmHg, 95% CI −13.25 to −1.42; effect size: −0.43; P=.02), DBP (−3.90 mmHg, 95% CI −7.70 to −0.11; effect size: −0.44; P=.04), FPG (−3.65 mg/dL, 95% CI −4.79 to −2.51; effect size: −0.39; P<.001), and HDL-C (4.19 mg/dL, 95% CI 2.43-5.95; effect size: 0.23; P<.001).

Conclusions

Overall, mobile-based health interventions aimed at promoting physical activity and healthy lifestyle changes had a strong positive effect on cardiometabolic risk indicators among individuals with metabolic syndrome. Nevertheless, further research is required to compare this approach with usual care in order to support the incorporation of these technologies in health systems.

Using Dual Neural Network Architecture to Detect the Risk of Dementia With Community Health Data: Algorithm Development and Validation Study
Authors: Shen Xiao , Wang Guanjin , Kwan Rick Yiu-Cho , Choi Kup-Sze
Published: August 2020

Background

Recent studies have revealed lifestyle behavioral risk factors that can be modified to reduce the risk of dementia. As modification of lifestyle takes time, early identification of people with high dementia risk is important for timely intervention and support. As cognitive impairment is a diagnostic criterion of dementia, cognitive assessment tools are used in primary care to screen for clinically unevaluated cases. Among them, Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) is a very common instrument. However, MMSE is a questionnaire that is administered when symptoms of memory decline have occurred. Early administration at the asymptomatic stage and repeated measurements would lead to a practice effect that degrades the effectiveness of MMSE when it is used at later stages.

Objective

The aim of this study was to exploit machine learning techniques to assist health care professionals in detecting high-risk individuals by predicting the results of MMSE using elderly health data collected from community-based primary care services.

Methods

A health data set of 2299 samples was adopted in the study. The input data were divided into two groups of different characteristics (ie, client profile data and health assessment data). The predictive output was the result of two-class classification of the normal and high-risk cases that were defined based on MMSE. A dual neural network (DNN) model was proposed to obtain the latent representations of the two groups of input data separately, which were then concatenated for the two-class classification. Mean and k-nearest neighbor were used separately to tackle missing data, whereas a cost-sensitive learning (CSL) algorithm was proposed to deal with class imbalance. The performance of the DNN was evaluated by comparing it with that of conventional machine learning methods.

Results

A total of 16 predictive models were built using the elderly health data set. Among them, the proposed DNN with CSL outperformed in the detection of high-risk cases. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve, average precision, sensitivity, and specificity reached 0.84, 0.88, 0.73, and 0.80, respectively.

Conclusions

The proposed method has the potential to serve as a tool to screen for elderly people with cognitive impairment and predict high-risk cases of dementia at the asymptomatic stage, providing health care professionals with early signals that can prompt suggestions for a follow-up or a detailed diagnosis.

Published: August 2020

BACKGROUND

The hospital-based Internet medical care is an online approach mode to provide health services directly from hospitals to patients, which develops rapidly in China. However, this mode is confronting new challenges and opportunities due to the prevalence of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).

OBJECTIVE

This study aimed to try to reflect the changing tendency of hospital-based Internet medical care in China by focusing on a large regional hospital.

METHODS

We employed The First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University as the subject of this study, which ranked the 50th in the top 100 medical centers in China. Data on hospital-based Internet medical care from November 2019 to April 2020 were collected, including the volume of online appointments, online consultations, and offline consultations. And we collected the data of COVID-19 confirmed cases and deaths from January 2020 to June 2020 to correspond to the data of hospital services for research.

RESULTS

632225 online appointments and 1207235 offline consultations were analyzed in hospital from November 19 to April 20. We calculated the online appointment rate, which changed in each department significantly with an upward tendency in March and April after the peak of the COVID-19 pandemic. Up to April, the department with the largest increase in online appointment rate was Nursing, and with the least increase was Rheumatology. Since the end of February, a total of 12 departments started free online consultation. Online consultations mainly focused on Otolaryngology, Endocrinology, Obstetrics, and Gynecology.

CONCLUSIONS

During the epidemic, though we still face various issues such as doctor scarcity and unavailability of health insurance coverage, hospital-based Internet medical care is expanding in China. The government and hospitals are creating a practical, shared medical and health information platform to combat the crisis. China’s hospital-based Internet medical care is meeting the new situation and much remains to be done.

The Mobilization of Using Cultures and Local Government’s Political-Economy Goals in Post-Reformation Banyuwangi
Authors: Setiawan Ikwan , Tallapessy Albert , Subaharianto Andang
Published: August 2020

This article deals with an ethnic identity-based-power through the mobilization of Using cultures in Banyuwangi under local government policies in post-Reformation. By juxtaposing Foucauldian discourse, Gramscian hegemony, and political economy perspective, we discuss some cultural projects conducted by two Banyuwangi regents in post-Reformation periods, Samsul Hadi (2000-2005) and Abdullah Azwar Anas (2010-2015 and re-elected for 2016-2021 period). With different emphasized aspects, both of them created programs, which incorporated and mobilized Using cultures for accomplishing their political economy goals. Samsul legalized Using cultural expression, such as a local dance and language, as the way to strengthen the dominant-ethnic identity and reach consensus for his political authority. In more sparkling activities, Anas has transformed Using identity into various carnival programs, which, in one side, have supported tourism industry and, in other side, have helped him in gaining consensus for his hegemonic position. However, in the context of real cultural empowerment, those programs have not given positive effect for the cultural worker in the grass root.

Published: August 2020

This article discusses the tradition of Melayokaken, the causal factors, and the impacts of the tradion on Using Society in Banyuwangi. Melayokaken, as a tradition of elopement, had been maintained by Using community for a long time. For some Using People in Banyuwangi (UPB), this tradition was regarded as a pride because it could help to maintain the tradition that had been formed since the time of their ancestors. But on the other hand, melayokaken tradition is considered violating the norms followed by Using people, namely religious norms, anti conflicts and living in peace. The method used in this study is qualitative method. Data were collected through participatory observations, interviews, notings, and recordings. The method of analysis used in this research is descriptive qualitative method. This research resulted in the finding that there is a factor that can maintain the tradition of melayokaken, namely as an alternative means to resolve the impasse communication in entering the marriage, for example due to: differences in status and social class, educational factors, the bride family may not marry more than one time in a year, the bridegroom candidate has not got a job yet, the candidates of the bride and the bridegroom are not yet old enough, the birth dates of the two are not good and matched, the marriage must not precede an older sister marriage, the bride candidate has already been betrothed by parents.This entails two impacts of the tradition, namely positive and negative. The positive side proves that melayokaken can penetrate the gap in status and social class between the two families and the things which are recognized less rational in the contemporary perspective. And the negative side proves that melayokaken had violated the norms, ethics, and religious values embraced by Using society although there was no significant impact on the doers’ social lives and in the community.

Published: August 2020

This article explores the concepts and practices of performing arts market, one of the fifteen sub-sectors of creative industry in Indonesia. This study discusses two performances namely Indonesia Performing Arts Market (IPAM) 2013 in Indonesia and Performing Arts Market in Seoul (PAMS) 2015, South Korea. The data were collected through participatory observation, interview, literature review, and personal reflections. The data were analyzed by using triangulation, member check, compare and contrast, and interpretation. The findings of this research show that the similarity of the two performing arts markets lies in their concept of globalization in regards to world society. The performing arts markets share two similar targets, festival in the country and tour abroad. The main differences between IPAM and PAMS are the scope of the event and the institution holding the event. IPAM showcased the works of Indonesian performing arts, while PAMS showcased the works of Korean performing arts and the arts from other countries. IPAM 2013 was organized by the central government, while PAMS 2015 was organized by Korean Arts Management Services (KAMS) that was financially supported by the central government of South Korea.
Framing a Trickster Character in Two Different Media and Eras: A Study on Br’er Rabbit in Uncle Remus’ Stories and Disney’s Song of the South
Authors: Saktiningrum Nur
Published: August 2020

This article analyses Br’er Rabbit, a trickster character in African-American folklore. As a trickster Br’er Rabbit possesses a paradoxical nature. On the one hand, Br’er Rabbit acts as a hero but on the other hand, he constantly plays tricks on others and by doing so, he is also violating the prevailing values. These two opposing aspects of trickster’s nature offer an interesting subject for the research. The questions considered worth focusing on in discussing the subject are: How can trickster character be described? What values are represented by trickster character? Is there any shift in the description and represented values in different media and over time? The study presented in this article was aimed at investigating the transformation of how the trickster is characterized and values represented by trickster Br’er Rabbit in Uncle Remus’ folktale version of “The Wonderful Tar Baby (1881) and The Laughing Place” (1903) written by Joel Chandler Harries and the same trickster character in the same stories featured in Disney’s “Song of the South” (1946). By comparing and contrasting both narratives in different media and eras, it is uncovered that there are some changes on the depiction and nature as well as values represented by Br’er Rabbit, the trickster character. The study presented in this article was aimed at investigating the transformation of values represented by trickster Br’er Rabbit in Uncle Remus’ folktale version of “Tar Baby and The Laughing Place” (1879) written by Joel Chandler Harries and the same trickster character in the same stories featured in Disney’s “Song of the South.” The research questions of this study are answered by applying Barths’ theory and method in studying headlines news. This model of research enables the researcher to understand and interprete values represented by the trickster character in different times and media.

Authors: Kamal Mustofa , Santosa Riyadi , Djatmika Djatmika
Published: August 2020

This research investigates how journalists behave in texts. The analysis focuses on the exploitation of attitudinal lexis. This is qualitatively explored through attitude and graduation. The data sources were columns of news, taken from an online version of The Jakarta Post on June sixth 2016. Having been selected using criterion-based sampling technique, the sources of data resulted in six chemical castration texts. The procedure of investigation consists of domain, taxonomic, componential, and cultural value analysis. The result shows that journalists are relatively subjective in reporting news by unbalancing the pros and cons, relatively inconsistent in work from delivering news to criticizing government officials, and relatively provocative by up-scaling critical evaluations against the government policy on sex offenders.
Deconstructing Concealed Gayness Text in The Film Negeri van Oranje: Critical Discourse Analysis
Authors: Setiawan Heri
Published: August 2020

As one of the most popular creative cultural products, film sometimes speaks beyond what it presents. It is not always produced merely for entertainment purposes, but also to spread a certain ideology and represent a particular culture. Anchored in queer theory, this research looks at the Indonesian film, Negeri Van Oranje, which was chosen purposely to be analyzed using Fairclough’s critical discourse analysis model with an aim to deconstruct the concealed gayness text in the film. From the analysis, it was found that the gay scenes in the film try to tell its audience about the positions, feelings, challenges, and rejections that Indonesian gay people experience living amongst heteronormative surroundings. Some new notions about gay people’s life in Indonesia are extracted based on the analysis of the gay scenes in the film. The strategy of inserting gay content into a film nationally released in Indonesia is also revealed. The results of the analysis could be used to create a picture of what gay life looks like in Indonesia, a multicultural country that is well-known as the place in which the world’s largest Muslim population dwells.
Cyclicity of Second-hand-ness: The Language and Translation of Afrizal Malna’s “Toko Bekas Bahasa A dan B”
Authors: Sari Zita Reyninta
Published: August 2020

Penned by the Indonesian poet, Afrizal Malna, “Toko Bekas Bahasa A dan B” is a poem with the prominent theme of second-hand-ness. This paper examines the use of language in Malna’s poem, along with its co-relation with its English translation by Gracia Asri, using translation theory from Marilyn Gaddis Rose and Lacan’s psychoanalytic theory on language and speech. Ultimately, this research found the presence of two cyclical relationships (cyclicities) in the following forms: (1) the cyclicity of language in the form of the co-dependent relationship between “problem” and “language”, made apparent by the non-normative translation of the poem, and (2) the cyclicity of language “birth” performed by characters A and B. These two cyclicities are constantly renewing themselves inside the scope of the poem.
A Defense of Local People Working as Souvenir Vendors and Its Relation with the Female Identity in Kintamani Tourism Area, Bali
Authors: Widiastini Ni Made Ary , Ardika I Wayan , Mudana I Gede
Published: August 2020

Souvenir vending is one of the jobs done by poor people in tourist areas such as Batur Tengah Village or better known as Penelokan, Kintamani, Bangli Regency, Bali to make their family survive. However, the souvenir vendors’ existence is not only considered by tourism businesses as unacceptable, but it is also regarded as a major factor that hampers the development of tourism in Kintamani. In fact, the Bali Local Regulation No. 2 of 2012 on Cultural Tourism explicitly emphasizes that the development of Bali’s tourism is aimed to encourage an equal distribution of business opportunities and to obtain maximum benefits for the welfare of the community. Therefore, this study was aimed to determine the reasons why the informal sector (souvenir vending) is used as the basis of the family economy, what is the practice of souvenir vending which has become the basis of the family economy, and also what is the struggle for vendor space in the Kintamani tourism area and its relation with the female identity. In this study, several techniques were used such as observations, interviews, and literature study to collect data. Research results show that the people in the Batur Tengah village choose to work as souvenir vendors because of their limited economic capital, education, skills, and time due to other life burdens, especially for those who are already married. In the Kintamani tourism area, souvenir vendors have to interact with various parties which certainly involves a capital struggle because each party has a different interest. As a famous international tourism area which has become a global Geopark, this area is highly contested for its economic, social, cultural, political, and environmental values. Researchers found a new paradigm that shows souvenir vending to be one form of entrepreneurship in a tourism field which is responded to by the people as a multi-purpose industry. The utilization of the informal sector is considered a family economic base by women in the village of Batur Tengah. Married woman are obligated to provide for their families hence they struggle as souvenir vendors in the middle of the tourism competition which has become more strict and less accommodative due to the new government policy. In practice, the community is very obedient to the elite community leaders who are considered as patrons, both by the men and women vendors. Other options to support their families are now very few and becoming less as the tourism areas are becoming more popular.
The Negotiation of Political Identity and Rise of Social Citizenship: A Study of the Former Female Combatants in Aceh Since the Helsinki Peace Accord
Authors: Rahmawati Arifah , Susilastuti Dewi H , Mas'oed Mohtar , Darwin Muhadjir
Published: August 2020

An identity negotiation process, initiated after the peace agreement was reached, is currently underway in Aceh. This can be seen, for example, in the activities of the women joined in the Inong Balee troop, the women's wing of the Free Aceh Movement (Gerakan Aceh Merdeka, GAM) formed in the late 1990s. Their participation as women combatants is inseparable from the strong ethno-nationalistic identity and ethno-political struggle that sought Aceh's independence. Today, more than twelve years after peace was reached in Aceh, the Acehnese ethno-political identity has experienced a transformation. Although it has not entirely disappeared, their activities have been framed as part of Indonesian nationalism. This finding emphasizes that nation is not fixed, but transformable and negotiable. The once ethno-political identity has become a social national identity. This paper attempts to understand how former woman members of GAM through a qualitative narrative. This paper attempts to answer why this has happened and how former combatants have negotiated their identities. Is there still a sense of Acehnese nationalism, as they fought for, and how has this intersected with their Indonesian nationalism since they became ordinary citizens?
Polygamy and Muslim Women in Contemporary Indonesian Literature
Authors: Wajiran Wajiran
Published: August 2020

This paper will examine the ways in which polygamy is addressed in contemporary Indonesian literature. The literature that will be analysed is that published after the reformation era, whereby new freedoms have encouraged many Muslim writers to raise this controversial issue. This paper will apply feminist theory especially that of the Muslim feminist Amina Wadud. Furthermore, in order to understand the contextuality of the works, a cultural materialist approach is also applied. There are some Indonesian writers who overtly depict polygamy in their literature, such as Habiburrahman El Shirazy and Alfina Dewi.

The Development and Demise of Child Labour in a Javanese Tea Plantation, 1900–2010
Authors: Semedi Pujo , Nooteboom Gerben
Published: August 2020

Child labour used to be a common phenomenon in colonial tea plantations at the start of the 20th century. Since the 1970s, however, child labour started slowly to disappear from tea plantations on Java. In this article, we argue that the abolishment of child labour was never the result of improved legislation, but should be understood as part of several interrelated historical processes. Emerging educational opportunities for boys and girls, changes in labour demand, household strategies, diversification of family incomes, ideas on childhood, and technological changes in the production process are key to explain this change. This observation might raise serious considerations for policy makers today who aim to abolish child labour or improve working conditions of children.

Published: August 2020

Classroom management has been a primary concern of teachers ever since we can remember. Excellent classroom managers are teachers who understand their own needs as well as the needs of their students. Teachers must get to know their students, where they come from, what motivates them, and what they need in order to best understand them. Through establishing a positive classroom environment, teachers can work to encourage and motivate students through promoting self-discipline while utilizing social-emotional learning.
Testes adaptativos para o Enade: uma aplicação metodológica
Authors: Piton-Goncalves Jean
Published: August 2020

O Exame Nacional de Desempenho dos Estudantes avalia o rendimento dos concluintes de cursos da Educação Superior. É realizado por meio de lápis e papel e analisado sob a metodologia da Teoria Clássica de Testes. Buscando minimizar custos de distribuição, aplicação e correção, os Testes Computadorizados são inovadores e, quando utilizado sob a ótica da Teoria de Resposta ao Item, podem ser adaptativos. Um teste adaptativo seleciona os itens dinamicamente conforme o examinado responde ao teste, resultando em um teste individualizado, com a vantagem de ser mais curto que os testes convencionais. Este artigo tem como objetivo avaliar a viabilidade da aplicação metodológica de um teste adaptativo. Partindo de 10.861 respostas de estudantes de Licenciaturas em Matemática e 206.359 testes adaptativos simulados, os resultados mostram que uma seleção por Kullback-Leibler é a que apresenta um teste mais curto e tão preciso quanto os convencionais.

Urbanização e a criminalidade em Moçambique: uma análise da violência criminal no município de Chimoio
Authors: Franze José Joaquim
Published: August 2020

RESUMOConstitui objeto deste artigo compreender a relação entre o crescimento da criminalidade e o processo de urbanização da cidade de Chimoio, em especial nas periferias em expansão, com o fito de aferir o nível organizacional e da eficácia das políticas públicas de segurança e do sistema de justiça criminal. A abordagem é qualitativa, feita através da revisão bibliográfica, análise documental, conversas informais e entrevistas semiestruturadas. Acredita-se que o município de Chimoio, pela sua localização ao longo da principal rodovia que liga sul, norte e centro do país e ao mesmo tempo com a República do Zimbabwe, tem registrado nos últimos anos um crescimento urbano extensivo, resultante, por um lado, da alta taxa de natalidade, e, por outro lado, pela imigração interna e externa, influenciada pela busca de melhores condições de vida, dada a sua natureza “agroindustrial”, que pressiona assim a ocupação dos espaços urbanos periféricos de forma “desordenada”. A ocupação desses espaços tem sido acompanhada pela prática de diversos crimes, dentre eles crimes violentos e não violentos, criando, dessa forma, uma sensação generalizada de medo e insegurança pública da sua população. Para este trabalho, são usados como parâmetros comparativos os estudos da criminalidade realizados na Argélia e África do Sul, devido a idênticas formas de ocupação socioespacial e da maneira como tem sido praticada a criminalidade.PALAVRAS-CHAVEEspaço urbano. Criminalidade. Periferia. Chimoio. Moçambique. ABSTRACTThe purpose of this article is to understand the connection between the growth of criminality and the urbanization process in the city of Chimoio, especially in the expanding peripheries, aiming to assess the organizational level and the effectiveness of the public security policies and of the criminal justice system. The approach is qualitative, performed through bibliographic review, document analysis, informal conversations and semi-structured interviews. It is believed that the municipality of Chimoio, due to its location along the main highway that connects south, north and center of the country and, at the same time, with the Republic of Zimbabwe, has registered in recent years an extensive urban growth, result of, on the one hand, a high birth rate, and, on the other, of internal and external immigration, influenced by the search for better living conditions, given its “agroindustrial” nature, which pressures the “disorderly” occupation of peripheral urban spaces. The occupation of these spaces has been accompanied by the practice of several crimes, among them, violent and non-violent crimes, thus creating a generalized sense of fear and public insecurity among its population. For this work, crime studies carried out in Algeria and South Africa were used as comparative parameters, due to the identical forms of socio-spatial occupation and the way in which crime has been practiced.KEYWORDSUrban space.

Déficits de republicanismo no Brasil: uma crítica à crítica contemporânea
Authors: Copelli Giancarlo Montagner
Published: August 2020

RESUMOMuitas são as críticas produzidas por cientistas sociais às teses patrimonialistas no Brasil, assim como àquelas voltadas a explicar nossos déficits republicanos a partir de uma pretensa essência do brasileiro. Também afastando essa essência, este breve ensaio procura, a partir dessa crítica contemporânea, (re)significar, entretanto, as clássicas chaves explicativas não apenas como atuais, mas, ainda, como fundamentais para compreender os limites de concretização do Estado Social no Brasil. Para isso, este artigo argumenta em um único bloco, recuperando a leitura clássica – já dialogada com a crítica na atualidade – para, em seguida, observar o conceito de peemedebismo, do filósofo Marcos Nobre, como atual sequência desse mesmo contexto, que, de resto, parece contribuir para engessar o avanço de direitos sociais. O método aqui empregado é o fenomenológico-hermenêutico.PALAVRAS-CHAVERepublicanismo. Democracia. Patrimonialismo. Peemedebismo. ABSTRACTMany are the critics made by social scientists to the patrimonialism theses in Brazil, as well as those that aim to explain our republican deficits based on an alleged Brazilian essence. Therefore, removing this essence, this brief essay seeks, based on this contemporary criticism, to (re)frame the classic explanatory keys not only as current, but, still, as fundamental to understand the limits of concretization of the Social State in Brazil. Thus, this article argues in a single block, recovering the classic reading - already dialogued with current criticism - to then observe the concept of “peemedebismo”, by the philosopher Marcos Nobre, as the ongoing sequence of that same context, which seems to contribute to halt the advance of social rights. The performed method is the phenomenological-hermeneutic.KEYWORDSRepublicanism. Democracy. Patrimonialism. Peemedebismo..
