ENGLISH ARCHITECTURE OF THE 16th-18th CENTURIES AND TRANSFORMATIONS OF ARCHITECTURAL ORDER
Authors: Groznov Oleg D.
Published: October 2020

In this article, the author considers the evolution of the classical order in England from the second half of the 16th to the early 19th century.

The research is based on two methods – stylistic analysis and analysis of historical and cultural aspects in the application of the classical order by English architects over more than three hundred years and the basic principles of or approaches to such application.

It is concluded that the analysis of how the classical order was used can help us understand not only the style and idiom of every particular master but also develop a better understanding of the cultural situation or the context in which every particular architect worked.

Authors: Bhardwaj Ashok Kumar
Published: October 2020

India, the highest TB burden country in the world, is having an estimated incidence of 26.9 lakh cases in 2019 (WHO). The year 2019 marks another milestone year for TB surveillance effort in India, with a record high notification of 24 lakhs cases; an increase of over 12% as compared to 2018. Of the 24 lakhs TB cases,(1) 21.6 lakhs were incident TB cases (New and Relapse/ Recurrent). This amount to an incident notification rate of approximately 159 cases/lakh against the estimated incidence rate of 199 cases/ lakh population; thus, closing the gap between the estimated and notified incident cases to just 40 Cases per lakh population, or an approximate of 5.4 lakh missing cases across India.
A Model for Predicting Unsafe Induced Abortion among Women in India
Authors: Kumar Anup , Kishun Jai
Published: October 2020

Background: Unsafe abortion is one of the major cause of maternal morbidity and mortality. Approximately 15.6 million abortions take place every year in India of which a significant proportion is unsafe. Objective: To explore risk factors associated with unsafe induced abortion. Method: National Family Health Survey-IV data have 82,369 women aged between 15-49 years who responded about their aborted /miscarriage/stillbirth is used. Out of these total women, 8,878 were induced aborted and found eligible. Result: Of the total induced aborted, 30.6% of women are unsafe induced abortion. Women age between 35-49 years are 53% more likely to have unsafe induced abortion than age between 15-19 years. Women living in rural areas have 26% less likely to unsafe abortion than women living in urban areas. Women who have knowledge about the fertile period are 35% less likely to have unsafe abortion than no correct knowledge. Unsafe induced abortion is found increasing as education and wealth index are increasing. Conclusion: Unsafe induced abortion is a large contributor to maternal morbidity and mortality.  Awareness of contraceptives use, Medical Termination of Pregnancy (MTP) and Comprehensive Abortion Care (CAC) service should be increased through media exposure

Authors: Johnson Avita Rose , Varghese Cicy , Johnson Andrea Daniella , Vimala Maria , Vadassary Rose Mary J , D'Souza Ashel Daphne , Joseph Merlyn
Published: October 2020

Background: Kangaroo Mother Care (KMC) is early, continuous and prolonged skin-to-skin contact between mother and baby, with exclusive breastfeeding.  Besides preterm and low birth weight babies, even full-term healthy newborns benefit from KMC. Objective: to assess awareness and experience of KMC for full-term newborns among newly delivered mothers in a rural maternity hospital. Methods: Interventional study with interview schedule to capture awareness of KMC (25 scored items). After one hour of practicing KMC, post-intervention assessment of KMC experience (23 scored items) was done. Bivariate analysis performed to associate awareness and experience of KMC with socio-demographic and obstetric variables. Results: The 100 mothers in our study had low median KMC awareness score of 4(IQR=2,8) and were unaware of benefits of KMC.  Median KMC experience score was 21(IQR=19,22), indicating highly positive experience. Mothers reported feeling happy or relaxed, found it easier to breastfeed, easy to practice KMC, and wanted to continue KMC at home. Mothers with caesarean section were more likely to experience abdominal or back pain during KMC (P=0.037) and mothers with previous abortion/stillbirth were more likely to have fear of suffocating the baby during KMC (P=0.005). Conclusion: Though awareness of KMC was found to be low, overall experience of KMC was very positive. Mothers should be educated about benefits of KMC and given an opportunity to practice KMC in hospital. Full-term healthy newborns and their mothers should not be denied the numerous advantages of KMC. There is need to create KMC-friendly hospital culture and promote KMC for all newborns.

Published: October 2020

Abstract

Objective: To build evidence about the effectiveness of computerized tomography virtual hystrosalpingiography (CT-VHSG) in the evaluation of female infertility and to assess the estimated radiation dose imposed.

Methods: A systematic review method was utilized to evaluate relevant diagnostic studies. Electronic database was searched from July to October 2017. Hand search was also conducted when applicable. Study quality was assessed according to standardized criteria. Heterogeneity was assessed using subjective and statistical measures. Meta-analysis was judged appropriate and conducted using Open met-analyst software utilizing the random effect model.

Results: Based on the assessment of risk of bias of the eligible studies, five studies were included in the final review. Random effects models showed that CT-VHSG has high diagnostic performance (pooled sensitivity 0.992 and specificity 0.98, with negative and positive likelihood ratios of 14.671 and 0.04 respectively). CT-VHSG had comparatively lesser radiation dose than conventional HSG (poled mean effective dose 4.14 mSV vs 6 mSV respectively).

Conclusion: CT-VHSG is a reliable procedure with high diagnostic performance in evaluation of the female reproductive tract. CT-VHSG can be regarded as generally safe imaging diagnostic technique in the infertility workup.  In contrary to common belief, CT-VHSG has comparable or lower radiation dose than conventional HSG.

CONSTRUÇÕES CONDICIONAIS NO DISCURSO DE AUTOAJUDA
Authors: Brunelli Anna Flora , Sousa Gisele
Published: October 2020

O objetivo deste trabalho é analisar o funcionamento de orações condicionais no discurso de autoajuda em português. A fundamentação teórica é constituída de estudos discursivos que caracterizam o discurso em questão em termos de um discurso autoritário e de pesquisas funcionalistas que descrevem a língua em uso e consideram aspectos formais, semânticos e pragmáticos das orações condicionais do português. As análises fundamentam-se na ocorrência de construções condicionais prototípicas, introduzidas pela conjunção se, presentes em uma obra bastante popular no Brasil, representativa do discurso de autoajuda. Os resultados revelam, por um lado, o importante papel que as condicionais desempenham nesse tipo de discurso para a construção da argumentação e para a garantia de envolvimento do enunciatário de modo a alcançar sua total adesão às orientações e propostas de atitudes a serem tomadas. Por outro lado, observa-se o funcionamento específico das condicionais factuais e eventuais na atenuação do tom impositivo que caracteriza o discurso de autoajuda, e das condicionais contrafactuais na ilustração das teses apresentadas.
ANÁLISE COMPARATIVA DA MICROCONSTRUÇÃO UM BELO DIA / UN BEL GIORNO NO PORTUGUÊS BRASILEIRO E NO ITALIANO
Authors: Galvão Vânia , Boellis Carlotta
Published: October 2020

Toda língua apresenta expressões idiomáticas em seu repertório escrito e oral. Essas expressões às vezes vêm de contextos completamente diferentes daqueles utilizados hoje em dia, de modo que nos perguntamos como elas chegaram às suas formas atuais, quais foram suas evoluções linguísticas e se a sociedade e as vicissitudes históricas tiveram um impacto em sua transformação. É o caso das microconstruções gêmeas um belo dia no português brasileiro e un bel giorno em italiano. Sendo assim, este artigo parte da analise pancrônica promovida por Silva (2017) e da sua descrição dos usos dessa microconstrução no português brasileiro segundo os contextos de Diewald (2002), em particular. O artigo compreende uma parte teórica inicial, baseada em princípios do Funcionalismo e da Gramática das Construções; uma segunda parte voltada para a análise de dados derivados de corpus do italiano histórico, na qual se faz uma contextualização sócio-histórica, e, em seguida, a análise dos contextos de uso dessas microconstruções no italiano.
OPINIÕES EM CONFRONTO
Authors: Marchon Amanda
Published: October 2020

Este artigo investiga a impossibilidade de se empreender uma análise linguística que dissocie os níveis sintático, semântico e pragmático. Sob a perspectiva teórica do Funcionalismo associada a conceitos da Análise do Discurso e da Semântica Argumentativa, analisaremos aspectos discursivos das cláusulas hipotáticas de finalidade na construção da argumentação. Especificamente, discutiremos como essas cláusulas se articulam, no português brasileiro em uso, baseando-nos em um dos aspectos que contribuem para a organização argumentativa do discurso, a hipotaxe circunstancial. Partindo da hipótese de que as estruturas hipotáticas revelam um matiz argumentativo, constituíram como corpus de análise desta pesquisa quarenta e oito (48) artigos de opinião publicados pelo jornal Folha de São Paulo, na coluna Tendências e Debates, nos anos de 2014 e de 2020, dos quais provêm cento e trinta (130) cláusulas hipotáticas de finalidade, que se mostraram mais produtivas em textos que advogam contra a doxa social instaurada.
NATURAL CONVECTION OF ETHYLENE GLYCOL AND WATER MIXTURE BASED AL2O3 NANOFLUIDS BETWEEN VERTICAL CONCENTRIC CYLINDERS
Authors: KAHVECİ Kamil , ÖĞÜT Elif
Published: October 2020

Natural convection of ethylene glycol (EG) and water mixture based Al2O3 nanofluids between vertical concentric circular cylinders heated from the inner wall and cooled from the outer wall was investigated numerically in this study. The computations were carried for the Rayleigh numbers of 104, 105, 106, and 107, nanoparticle volume fractions of 0%, 4% and 8%, ethylene glycol (EG) to water volume ratios of 0:100 %, 50:50%, and 100:0%, the radius ratios of 2, 3 and 4, and aspect ratios of 0.5, 1, and 2. The Brinkman model was used to predict the viscosity and the Yu and Choi model for the thermal conductivity of nanofluid. The results show that the average Nusselt number shows a considerable increase with an increase in the Rayleigh number and radius ratio. The results also show that the average Nusselt number shows a medium increase with increasing nanoparticle volume fraction and a slight increase with increasing volume ratios of EG to water. Furthermore, the results show that the average Nusselt number experiences first an increase then a decrease with an increase in the aspect ratio except for the low Ra numbers. Finally, the average Nusselt number experiences a slight increase with the aspect ratio for the low Rayleigh numbers.

Authors: SENTURK Merve
Published: October 2020

In this study, thermodynamic and economic analysis have been carried out to the determination of optimum design parameters of Kalina Cycle. The optimization of four key parameters (turbine inlet pressure, geothermal water outlet temperature at evaporator, condenser pressure and ammonia mass fraction) is also conducted. The thermodynamic properties of the medium temperature geothermal resource in the Simav region are used in the system designs. The energy efficiency and exergy efficiency of the system are evaluated through the thermodynamic analysis. Also, the system has been investigated economically with the net present value method. As a result of the exergy analysis, it is determined that the maximum exergy destruction occurs in the evaporator within the total exergy destruction of the system. In the system design with 90 % ammonia mass fraction, the exergy destruction in the evaporator constitutes 66.5 % of the total exergy destruction in the system. The geothermal water outlet temperature at evaporator, ammonia mass fraction, turbine inlet pressure and condenser pressure of the most effective geothermal energy powered Kalina Cycle are determined as 353.15 K, 90 %, 4808 kPa and 700 kPa, respectively. The energy efficiency and exergy efficiency of this system are calculated as 13.04 % and 51.81 %, respectively. Also, the net present value of this system is calculated as 119.377 Million US$ and it is seen that it is suitable for investment in economic terms.

Published: October 2020

Secondary hyperparathyroidism is the first and most recognizable complication of chronic kidney disease (CKD) because parathyroid hormone (PTH) plays a compensatory role to maintain calcium and phosphate homeostasis. Progressive renal failure give rise to a steady increase in parathyroid hormone concentration. which is related to occurrence of renal bone disease. The objective of this study was to find out the httact parathyroid hormone level in different stages of chronic kidney disease patients. This cross sectional study was carried ow in the department of physiology. Dhaka Medical College from January to December 2009. 100 chronic kidney disease patients aged 20 to 60 years were selected as experimental group and 20 apparently healthy subjects were in control group and were matched for age and body weight. Patients were divided into three stages based on their creatinine clearance rate (Ccr). Group B, includes 34 patients marked as stage 11 with Ccr 60-89 ml/min, Group Ba Group B3 consists of 36 and 30 patients each and marked as stage 111 and stage IV with Ccr 30-59 mIhnin and 15-29 Skills respectively. Intact PTH was measured by chemiluminescent hnutuno assay method. Statistical analysis was done by unpaired Student's "1"- test and pearson's Correlation test. Mean serum PTH level was significantly higher in all experimental groups than that of control group (p< 0.001). High level of Pal was found in 74% patients in stage 11, 81% in stage III and 97% patients in stage IV. Again, a significant negative correlation of parathyroid hormone with Ccr was observed in patients with CKD in all three stages. From the findings of the present study it may be concluded that intact PTH level progressively increases from early stage to late stage of chronic kidney disease.

Published: October 2020

Irrational use of medicine is a major problem worldwide. Phartnaceutical drug promotion is a means of informing health professionals about new drugs. The approach is often unethical and inappropriate and may promote irrational prescribing. Sources of drug information are one of the important indicators of irrational drug use by the practitioners in developing countries. A randomized cross sectional study was done to evaluate and empire the knowledge about drug information and indicators of rational drug use among the practitioners in Dhaka city. 183 practitioners were randomly selected and interviewed in Iwo groups. Ninety of them were selected from Holy Family Red Crescent Medical College (HFRCMC) an autonomous teaching hospital in Dhaka city. Ninety three practitioners front non-teaching hospitals of Dhaka city were also interviewed by tatijOrm structured questionnaire comprising the sources of drug information and rational drug use indicators by WHO and buentational Network for Rational Use of Drug (1NRUD) criteria.. The interviews were taken during February 2010 to July 2010 by the mulergrachtate medical students of third year am! fourth year. 71% doctors of HFRCMC considered the interned and 73% doctors front other group considered the company literature as the source of drug information. Use of medical journal and BDNF was very low in both the groups. The overall awareness and strength of rational prescribing practice was found poor in comparison to 11FRCMC. Most of the practitioners (84% and 71%).were found concerned and informed about the prices of drug that indicates the strength of rational practice of pharmaco economics.

The traditional practice of postoperative starvation after abdominal surgery recently has been challenged. Early enteral feeding has been shown by various clinical trials as having benefits in reduction of postoperative ileus and Hospital stay. Application of this concept to pediatric colonic surgery has not been reported. So comparing postoperative experience between early and traditional enteral feeding after colostomy closure to show the postoperative advantages of the former over the later. It is a prospective comparative study at Dhaka Medical College Hospital during July 2005 to September 2006 in 25 (age. body weight, colostomy site, operation time and follow-up duration matched) patients of colostomy closure divided in two Groups: Gr.l = II) and Gr. 11 (n = 14) patients under went traditional enteral feeding and early enteral feeding in postoperative period respectively. Unpaired 'r' tests was used for statistical analysis. Postoperative hospital stay and postoperative complication such as vomiting, diarrhea, wound disruption were assessed Lower gastrointestinal (0.1) bleeding, Urinary tract infection (UTI), Upper respiratory tract infection (URT1) and unspecified fever more than 48 hours were used as parameters of the study. For study Group 11 (Early Enteral Feeding Patients) postoperative hospital stay and postoperative complication such as vomiting, diarrhea, wound disruption. lower G.I bleeding, UTI, URTI and unspecified fever more than 48 hours were significantly lesser than the control Group I (Traditional Enteral Feeding Patients). Parents were also found to be mare satisfied with early enteral feeding in postoperative period. Through this post operative comparative study, early enteral feeding patients were found to be more advantageous than the traditional feeding patients undergoing colostomy closure.

Desde el desarrollo de los tiempos, la educación ha ido evolucionando, ya que esto ha traído la inclusión de alumnos con diversas variantes en su desarrollo, y con esto podemos ver que en México, ha sido una continua inclusión dentro de las formas de educar. En la que hemos visto un crecimiento de matrícula muy adecuado y lo que nos indica un desarrollo continuo del proceso de crecimiento de la UACH. En el proceso de realización de esta investigación pudimos ver como se ha ido incrementando la matrícula y la aceptación de los alumnos con discapacidad, los cuales han ido ganando terreno en el ámbito educativo. Al final concluimos, que a pesar de todo, y pese a todos los altibajos que ha sufrido nuestra economía y sociedad, se acaba de dar un vuelco a ver las necesidades de este sector tan dañado, y tan frágil de nuestra sociedad, esos pequeños-grandes guerreros, que no importando su condición, luchan por seguir en esta tierra, por ganar un espacio y que quieren ser tratados, como lo que son Unos Seres Especiales, aquellos, que por naturaleza, por accidente o por enfermedad, dejaron de desarrollar algún sentido, o bien lo desarrollan poco, pero que al entrar al habito educativo pueden lograr sus metas y sus ideales.

Paraneoplastic Neurologic syndromes (PNS) are rare heterogeneous group of disorders associated with cancer, caused by mechanisms other than, direct infiltration, metastasis, infection, coagulopathy, metabolic and nutritional deficits or consequences of therapy. These syndromes can affect any area of the nervous system, including central nervous system, peripheral and autonomic nervous system, neuromuscular junction, and muscles. Over the last five decades three waves of interest are noted in paraneoplastic neurological syndromes: First, the clinical and pathological recognition of PNS; and then the discovery of immunological mechanisms characterized by the presence of antibodies and associated cytotoxic T cell responses against intracellular antigens, and more recently, the surge of antibodies ('onconeural' antibodies) against synaptic and cellular surface proteins Although paraneoplastic neurological syndromes are uncommon and not completely understood, their antibody associations are important because of the antibody's aetiological connection with the underlying neoplasm. The paraneoplastic autoantibody may provide a roadmap to early diagnosis of the underlying neoplasm, prompt treatment of which can sometimes improve the neurological outcome. The disorder often predate the diagnosis of the underlying neoplasm, providing a pathway for detecting cancer at an earlier and amenable stage. Evaluations for paraneoplastic antibodies are sometimes negative but do not rule out the diagnosis of a paraneoplastic disorder. Therefore, relevant clinical presentations should suggest a paraneoplastic syndrome, even in the absence of paraneoplastic antibodies and prompt search for occult neoplasm.

Authors: A Abubakar , AA Sule , MS Haruna
Published: October 2020

The endemicity of urinary bladder schistosomiasis and its link with the bladder malignancy was established in the epidemiological evaluations from across sections of Africa and Eastern Mediterranean. Notwithstanding, appraisals on the parasite-tumour mergence remained inadequate for most of the Nigerian communities. This review was to ascertain the pattern in Kano, a colossal city in Northern Nigeria. This was a 16-year retrospective study from 2nd January, 2001 to 31st December, 2016 of all Schistosoma-ova ingrained bladder cancers cataloged in the Aminu Kano Teaching Hospital, Kano, Nigeria. The reviewed variables comprised the patient's age, sex and the cancer histopathological conclusions. A total of 357 bladder cancers were confirmed during the sixteen year period. Of these, 30 (8.4%) demonstrated schistosomiasis ova. Patient's age ranged from 26 to 80 years

A front suspension of Hyundai Elantra 1992 model is assigned as quarter car model and is considered for the performance study. Modeling the dynamic performance of an automobile car system represents a complex task and forms an important step in its design procedure. In this paper the stationary response of quarter car vehicle model moving with a constant velocity over a rough road is considered for the performance study. For this a simplified model and experimental set up is developed. The deterministic impulses due to road profile are given by an eccentric cam which gives input motion to front suspension acting as a follower of the cam. The displacements obtained by FFT analyzer at upper mount of shock absorber were compared with the analytical and MATLAB results.

Published: October 2020

Metro stations have become an invaluable transportation resource and will be spreading out of the metropolitan cities soon. It has reduced travel time and travel cost. We intend to research the possibility of unmanned metro stations through the application of artificial intelligence, one of which is expert systems. Expert systems —that are able to hold the accumulated knowledge of different domain experts can be implemented to guide the commuter about the optimum travel route. In this way the metro stations can be turned into self-sustainable structures.

A keyboard is a commonly used input device that facilitates human computer interaction by allowing the user to enter commands by physically pressing units called keys. The keys can be physically embedded on the system or can be a logical concept (such as on touchscreens [x]). In this paper we discuss the aspects of a novel keyboard, its circuit, its working model and efficiency. This keyboard uses the principle of infra red emission and reception which generates an active low signal on placing an obstruction between the emitter and receiver.

Published: October 2020

In Recent Scenario, scarcity of energy source, ever growing Power demand, increasing in generation cost necessitate optimal economic dispatch. This paper includes Biogeography Algorithm to compute Economic Load Dispatch Problem for Thermal generator of power system. Biogeography Describes how the species arise, migrates from one habitat another and gets wipes out.In BGA model, problem solutions are represents as islands and sharing of features between solution is represented as immigration and emigration which searches for the global optimum mainly through two steps :migration and mutation. BGA has features in common with other biology-based optimization methods, such as GAs and particle swarm optimization (PSO). This makes BGA applicable to many of the same types of problems that GAs and PSO are used for, namely, high-dimension problems with multiple local optimal. To show the advantages of the proposed algorithm, it has been applied to two different test systems for solving ELD problems. First, a 3-generators system then a 6 generators system with simple quadratic cost function considering operating limit constraints is considered.
Code Convertor For Portability of Applications For ANDROID & iPHONE

Published: October 2020

With all the latest technologies and techniques being implemented, Cell phones are no more used for just calling or messaging. They are at a stage where they can be used for doing almost anything and everything. The leading cell phones in today’s tech-race are the Android phones and the iPhones of Apple. These two are leading the market when it comes to phones with latest and leading technology. iPhone applications are developed in Objective C language while Android applications are developed in Java. Due to the current restrictions and differences between iPhone and Android platforms, applications that need to be deployed on both the platforms need to be developed twice. This involves double effort and time. Hence, there is a rise in demand, for Java to Objective C translator. This translator will allow an application to be developed only once but deploying it on both the platforms, i.e. iPhone and Android. Whenever any new application is to be developed, its application code along with the translation details are sent to the translator. If the application to be developed is for an iPhone, then the translator will refer to the Objective C library and generate a respective Objective C code for that application. If it is to be developed for an Android phone, then the translator will refer to the java library and generate java code for that same application. The generated code will then be sent to be implemented on the required platform. This would help in reducing the development time and energy. Languages that will be used to implement this technique are Java, for the translator and Android, and Objective C for the iPhone.
Gripe española y dinámicas laborales en la Argentina de principios del siglo XX
Authors: Carbonetti Adrián , Rivero María Dolores
Published: October 2020

Movidos por el suceso epidemiológico actual, el covid-19, y los resquebrajamientos económicos a los que asistimos, en este estudio nos interrogamos por el impacto que supuso la pandemia más cruenta del siglo XX sobre la economía y las condiciones de trabajo en Argentina: la gripe española. Esta aproximación, llevada a cabo mediante una metodología cualitativa anclada en la hermenéutica, se asienta en el estudio de fuentes periodísticas y testimonios médicos de época. A partir de ellos pretendemos mostrar cómo el advenimiento de la dolencia – cristalizado en dos grandes oleadas – sacudió las estructuras económicas y productivas de diferentes regiones del país, generando lógicas laborales particulares.
A casa do trabalhador em tempos epidêmicos. São Paulo, primeiras décadas republicanas
Authors: Bertucci Liane Maria
Published: October 2020

Entre o final do século XIX e os anos 1910, com o crescimento vertiginoso da cidade de São Paulo, a habitação dos trabalhadores foi tema de discussões médicas e de propostas governamentais, além de pauta recorrente de jornais que, em nome dos trabalhadores ou operários, denunciavam a situação precária das moradias de muitos dos habitantes da cidade. Este artigo discute a casa operária na capital do estado de São Paulo nos contextos da ameaça de peste bubônica em 1899, do surto de varíola de 1908 e da epidemia de gripe espanhola, privilegiando as considerações dos jornais “independentes”, anarquistas ou libertários e, no caso da gripe de 1918, aquelas do O Combate, jornal da grande imprensa cujo lema era “independência, verdade e justiça”. Nesses jornais, a ciência, traduzida em proposições médicas, embasou críticas sociais e ao governo, e a divulgação, para os trabalhadores, do ideal da casa salubre e da importância das práticas higiênicas para a manutenção da saúde nesses períodos epidêmicos.
Diálogos entre sociologia e história: suas contribuições à edificação de uma sociologia da educação no Brasil
Authors: Valle Ione Ribeiro
Published: October 2020

A sociologia da educação foi se constituindo no diálogo com outras sociologias e mesmo com outros campos do conhecimento. Diferentes perspectivas podem ajudar a situar este diálogo. Priorizamos aqui a relação, não raramente conflituosa, entre sociologia e história, inscrita no complexo quadro das lutas do campo científico e também do campo educacional. Para tanto, revisitamos alguns pensadores que têm indicado aproximações e distanciamentos entre essas duas tradições disciplinares, a saber: Pierre Bourdieu (1930-2002), Jean-Claude Passeron (1930-), Antoine Prost (1933-) e Norbert Elias (1897-1990). Partimos da premissa de que a sociologia de Pierre Bourdieu é, desde o princípio, edificada como uma sociologia histórica. Nossa segunda premissa pauta-se num diálogo entre Jean-Claude Passeron, sociólogo, e Antoine Prost, historiador, cujo foco está nas tensões entre duas perspectivas epistemológicas: o ‘raciocínio sociológico’ e o ‘raciocínio histórico’. Nossa última premissa foi elaborada a partir de reflexões de Norbert Elias relativas à oposição entre generalização sociológica e diferenciação histórica. Nosso interesse por esses autores se deve às suas contribuições à edificação do campo educacional brasileiro, o que vem se efetivando graças à intensificação da pesquisa histórica e/ou sociológica.
Décrire et analyser la production des inégalités scolaires: l'apport de la sociologie de Basil Bernstein
Authors: Rochex Jean-Yves
Published: October 2020

Dès les années 90 le sociologue britannique Basil Bernstein reprochait aux travaux de Bourdieu et aux théories de la Reproduction (mais la question vaut d’être également posée à bien d’autres sociologies de l’éducation qui se posent en alternative à ces théories) de demeurer trop générales, de ne pas se soucier suffisamment de l’analyse interne des structures et modes de fonctionnement du champ éducatif, et de ne pouvoir ainsi « fournir des principes puissants de description des instances pédagogiques, de leurs discours, de leurs pratiques » (Bernstein, 2007, p. 26). De fait, à de rares exceptions près, la fonction de transmission du savoir et ses modalités pratiques apparaissent comme le parent pauvre de la sociologie de l'éducation : objet opaque et objet suspect, « mauvais objet », mystification, leurre derrière lesquels se cacheraient les « véritables fonctions » (reproduction sociale, aliénation, domestication...) de l'institution scolaire dont la sociologie aurait pour objet de rechercher et dévoiler les modes opératoires. Cette réticence est devenue un obstacle pour décrire et analyser, et donc pour contribuer à transformer, les processus concrets par lesquels se produisent, entre contextes et situations, les inégalités scolaires, de classe et de genre. Il nous faut au contraire pour cela savoir nouer des rapports renouvelés entre sociologie, psychologie culturelle et didactique. Nous montrerons, à partir d’exemples tirés d’observations prolongées de classes ordinaires, combien la théorie de Bernstein constitue un outil précieux pour construire un cadre conceptuel et des méthodologies empiriques au service de cet objectif.
