Published: August 2017

Diabetes is the common cause for amputation of lower limb. Foot ulcers and associated complications are important causes of mortality and morbidity in patients with diabetes. Hence, it is important to predict diabetic foot ulcer in its early stages to eliminate the risks of foot amputation. Inlow’s 60 second diabetic foot ulcer screening tool is gaining immense attention over the years which is associated with its simplicity to use, rapid detection of high risk diabetic feet, and provides referral for patients necessitating treatment. A systematic review is conducted to assess the reliability and credibility of using Inlow’s 60 second diabetic foot screening tool for diabetic foot risk stratification and to examine its feasibility in the Indian context. Eight studies suited the inclusion criteria which were analysed systematically. The findings of the paper reveal that the sixty second tool acts as a better tool for diabetic foot ulcer risk stratification; however, modifications are necessary for its application in the Indian context.

Authors: Winata Andika A. , Rudiman Reno
Published: August 2017

Background: Liver is the most injured organ in abdominal trauma. Nonoperative treatment (NOM) is increasingly being adopted as the initial management strategy. The aim of this study was to evaluate the results of operative and conservative management of patients with blunt liver injury treated in a single institution.Methods: A retrospective study, analyzing patients admitted from 2011-2015 with the diagnosis of liver trauma, was performed. The patients were classified according to the intention to treatment: Group I, NOM; Group II, operative management and Group III, fail in NOM management. We analyzed demographic data, injury classification, associated injuries, transfusions, shock, liver function test, lactate level, and mortality rates.Results: Over the five years period, 68 patients were recorded, 45 were successful (S-NOM) and 18 were failed (F-NOM). No differences in age, sex or initial hemodynamics were found between S-NOM and F-NOM. The F-NOM patients were more seriously injured, more acidotic, required transfusion, had more fluid collection at FAST, had worse transaminase level and higher mortality rate. Grade of liver injuries was the independent risk factor of failure in nonoperating management of blunt liver trauma with the cut-off point is 3.66.Conclusions: Non-operative management of blunt liver injuries is successful in some cases. Patients with more severe injury tend to have an operation. High-grade blunt liver injuries always present with a worse condition and require an operation.

Authors: Thiyagarajan Amrithraj , Bhatnagar Shubhi
Published: August 2017

Background: The study aimed to compare the management of Grade III hemorrhoids by conventional Milligan Morgan versus Harmonic scalpel hemorrhoidectomy with respect to the intraoperative time, intra operative blood loss, length of hospital stays, postoperative outcome based on immediate and late complications and activity resumption, recurrence and cost.Methods: In this prospective study, a total of 60 patients, 30 patients undergoing Harmonic Scalpel hemorrhoidectomy and 30 patients undergoing Milligan Morgan hemorrhoidectomy, were studied. Operated patients were monitored for bleeding, pain, retention of urine, fecal incontinence ambulatory time and recurrence.Results: Symptoms such as pain during defecation, bleeding PR were significantly reduced at follow up in patients undergoing Harmonic scalpel hemorrhoidectomy over Milligan Morgan technique. Fecal incontinence was present in 8 cases following Milligan Morgan method over 3 months follow up. Recurrence was highest in (26.08%) in Milligan Morgan group while lowest in (4.34%) in Harmonic Scalpel group. No of days absent from work is more Milligan Morgan group and significantly less in Harmonic Scalpel group.Conclusions: This study showed significant difference in operative time, blood loss during surgery and pain score on postoperative days 15, 1 month, 3 months and 6 months and postoperative analgesic requirement for Harmonic scalpel assisted hemorrhoidectomy as compared to conventional Milligan Morgan, which were statistically significant. Harmonic scalpel hemorrhoidectomy is a newer, safer, more effective, faster and bloodless operative technique with minimal tissue damage and further larger sample studies and required to establish its complete efficacy and benefit over other modalities of hemorrhoidectomy.
Conduits for esophageal replacement: alternatives
Authors: Nichkaode Prabhat B. , Naik Tarun , Sharma Anurag
Published: August 2017

Background: Native esophageal replacement after esophageal resection is a problem that has challenged the surgeons over a century. Conduit must be long enough to bridge between cervical esophagus and abdomen. It must have reliable vascular supply, so that it can perform its function of deglutition. Stomach, colon and jejunum all these are used since long. However, there are times when the stomach is unavailable for use as a conduit. It is in these instances that an esophageal surgeon must have an alternative conduit in their armamentarium. Present study is aimed to discuss technical aspects of stomach, colonic, interposition in 32 cases of benign and malignant pathology, we review recent literature with a focus on outcomes, advantages and disadvantages of all options.Methods: A retrospective study of 32 cases between 2009 to 2016 at teaching institute in central India. 32 cases of benign and malignant esophageal disease needing esophageal resection and replacement. The record of each patient was reviewed for age, gender, indication for esophageal resection, type of operation, indication for selection of conduit, morbidity and mortality. The patient’s gastrointestinal symptoms were graded as excellent, good, fair or poor. Survival was estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method using the date of operation as the starting point.Results: Study includes 24 males and 8 females, 25 cases cancer esophagus with 6 patients caustic stricture, 1 patient had radiation stricture. Gastric conduit was used in 29 patients while 3 patients had colonic interposition. No complications noted in colonic group, while cervical anastomotic leak along with cardiovascular and respiratory complications noted in 6 patients. Gastric replacement was less time consuming than colonic interposition. There was hospital mortality of 4 patients. There is no difference in survival of these patients whether you use gastric or colonic conduit.Conclusions: Clinical decision making in the treatment of esophageal cancer consists of balancing the risks of a particular treatment against potential benefits gained in survival and quality of life. The choice of conduit for reconstruction may have significant impact on the quality of life. Stomach is the most commonly used organ for replacement but when it is not available then colon can safely be used as an esophageal replacement.

Authors: Y. B. Ramaswami , H. S. Prakash , T. C. Raghavendra Prabhu , Jabbar Faiyaz Abdul
Published: August 2017

Background: Appendicitis is one of the commonest causes of abdominal pain requiring emergency surgery. Diagnosing acute appendicitis clinically still remains a common surgical problem as the clinical signs and symptoms of other abdominal pathologic conditions mimic the diagnosis of acute appendicitis. Delay in diagnosis and surgery for this condition may lead to various complications like perforation, abdominal abscess etc. By knowing perforation prior to the exploration, we can manage the condition very effectively in terms explaining the prognosis of disease, morbidity of surgery, wound infection, and requirement of emergent nature of surgery. Aim of the study is to determine of role of hyperbilirubinemia as a new diagnostic marker to predict gangrenous/perforated appendicitis.Methods: It’s a retrospective study was conducted in the department of surgery, MMCRI, Mysore during the period of January 2015 to December 2015 total of 100 patients with clinical as well as ultrasonographic diagnosis of acute appendicitis or appendiceal perforation were made. The serum bilirubin test was carried out in all the patients pre-operatively.Results: In the study, the total 100 patients enrolled for the study, hyperbilirubinemia (> 1.2 mg/dL) in present study was found in 47 patients with 19 acute and 28 patients perforated appendicitis of all the 100 patients while 53 patients had normal bilirubin levels (≤ 1.2 mg/dL) 51 patients acute and 2 patients perforated appendix.Conclusions: Total serum bilirubin appears to be a new promising laboratory marker for diagnosing appendicular perforation. The patients with clinical signs and symptoms of appendicitis and with hyperbilirubinemia without elevation of liver enzymes should be identified as having a higher probability of appendicular perforation, suggesting total serum bilirubin levels have a predictive potential for the diagnosis of appendicular perforation.

Authors: S. M. Sajith Babu , Gupta Rachna , Singh Lalmani
Published: August 2017

Background: Fissure-in-ano is a common yet troublesome condition; if acute, the severity of patient discomfort and extent of disability far exceed that would be expected from a seemingly trivial lesion. The present study was carried out to study the effectiveness of conservative management in symptom relief in acute fissure in ano.Methods: The study was conducted in 165 patients with acute fissure in ano attending Surgery OPD and/or admitted in surgical wards of Sanjay Gandhi Memorial Hospital associated with Shyam Shah Medical College, Rewa during the period from 1st August 2015 to 31st July 2016. It was a prospective clinical study. All the study subjects underwent extensive clinical examination and were prescribed conservative treatment regime. Follow up was done at the end of 2 weeks, 4 weeks and 6 weeks and the data was analyzed. 165 patients diagnosed as having acute fissure in ano. The outcome was assessed based on the following parameters; symptomatic relief, pain relief based on visual analogue scale and healing of ulcer.Results: Most of the patients were young adults with a slight female dominance. Pain during defecation and bleeding per rectum were the major presenting complaints. 73.94% of patients achieved symptom relief within 2 weeks of conservative treatment. At 6 weeks follow up after giving conservative line of management, 97.58% achieved symptom relief with healing of ulcer. Mean pain score was reduced from 9.5±0.71 at the start of therapy to 1.33±0.69 at the end of 6 weeks of conservative therapy.Conclusions: Acute fissure in ano can be easily cured with systematic usage of conservative treatment regime. A proper follow up along with patient education can help to achieve good remission and avoid unnecessary surgical intervention.

Authors: Sringeri Raxith , Vasudeviah Thulasi
Published: August 2017

Background: The occurrence of sudden disruption of the abdominal laparotomy wound is a major disaster in the life of a patient who has undergone an abdominal operation and a major psychological blow to the patient as well as the surgeon.Methods: 100 consecutively enrolled patients who underwent emergency midline laparotomies were enrolled in the study who were admitted in Department of Surgery, JSS University, Mysore and intra-operatively randomized into two groups in 1:1 pattern.Results: The total number of patients who underwent laparotomy for generalized peritonitis in 2 years was 100. The post-operative wound infection rate in Group A was 32.4% and in Group B was 12.3% (p = 0.03) and 95% CI (1.083-7.326).Conclusions: Present study concluded that the modified version of Smead-Jones techniques of laparotomy closure with prolene loop had very low incidence of early and may reduce the late complications. It was superior to other conventional methods of closure.
Skin stapler versus sutures in abdominal wound closure
Authors: Varghese Fobin , Gamalial Jose , Kurien John S.
Published: August 2017

Background: Wound closure is as important as any other action performed by the surgeon. Apart from the need for producing a healthy and strong scar, it is the surgeon’s responsibility to ensure its aesthetically pleasing physical appearance. Skin staples are an alternative to regular sutures in offering this advantage. The present study has helped to highlight the benefits of skin stapler.Methods: Out of the 120 participants, 60 underwent skin closure with Stainless steel skin staples and the remaining 60 with non-absorbable Polyamide mattress sutures randomly. They all received one mandatory dose of pre-operative parenteral antibiotic 1 hour prior to the incision. On the 3rd postoperative day, the wound was evaluated for inflammation, infection and wound gape. Participants were re-evaluated for infection/gape/inflammation during follow-up on 7th day. The wounds were evaluated at 1 months follow up which were rated for cosmesis by Visual Analogue Score. The data was coded and entered in Microsoft excel and then analysed using statistical software SSPS.Results: Study population consisted of 79 males (65.8%) and 41 females (34.2%). Mean age of the study population was 49.35 with an SD 16.739. Wound infection was found to be higher in stapler group (30%) when compared to conventional suture group (11.7%)which was found to be statistically significant with chi-square value 6.114 and p value 0.013. Mean time for closure was significantly shorter in stapler group 4.55 minutes, when compared to suture group (11.22 minutes). Better cosmetic outcome was observed in conventional suture group.Conclusions: Preventing wound infection, especially in abdominal wounds, is of importance as it may lead to wound gaping. Incidence of post-operative wound infection was more with skin staples. Cosmesis is essential and important aspect in this day and age. A cosmetic scar not only gives satisfaction to the patient but also mental ease to the surgeon. Conventional sutures provided better cosmetic result when compared with skin staplers.

Mean age of present study group was 38.6 years, with male to female ratio of 2:1. The commonest etiology was gastro-duodenal ulcers followed by (in order of decreasing frequency) appendicitis, typhoid, trauma, tuberculosis, malignancy, bowel strangulation, amoebiasis, diverticulitis and unknown etiology. Mortality was 20 (8.13%) cases in the present study group.Conclusions: The spectrum of etiology of perforation peritonitis in the developing world differs markedly from that in the developed world. Early and aggressive fluid and electrolyte correction followed by prompt surgical intervention to address the cause under the cover of broad spectrum antibiotics are the cornerstones in achieving a favourable and good outcome.
Role of minimal invasive surgeries in gastric neoplastic diseases; how far we have come: an experience at tertiary centre
Authors: P. Pote Maroti , Rafe Abdul
Published: August 2017

Background: Minimal invasive surgery (MIS) is a means of performing major operations through small incision, often using miniaturized, high tech imaging systems, to minimize the trauma of surgical exposure without compromising the quality of the surgical procedure. Upper gastro intestinal (GI) diseases constitute majority of gastro intestinal pathologies. With improved diagnostic and screening modalities, even in fatal diseases like carcinoma stomach (Ca stomach), MIS offers not only complete treatment but also improved quality of life by decreasing morbidity and mortality. This study attempts to explain our experience with MIS being performed at our institute.Methods: This study is hospital based, non-randomized prospective study carried out in the Department of Surgery, Govt. Cancer Hospital, Aurangabad from August 2014 to December 2016. Total 30 patients were included in study. All gastric neoplastic diseases operated by minimal invasive surgeries in patients of all age groups were included. All patients were operated under general anaesthesia. Post-operative pain scoring was done according to VAS scale. All patients were kept in ICU in immediate post-operative period for 2-3 days. Then patients were shifted to general ward once patients were clinically stable. Patients were discharged according to recovery. Hospital stay was prolonged in cases having complications. Patients were followed up post operatively after 1, 3 and 6 months and assessed on basis of symptoms.Results: Maximum patients belonged to the age group of 41-60 years. Mean age of patients operated for Gastrointestinal stromal tumours (GIST) was 57.5 years and Ca Stomach was 56.6 years. Mean operative time for laparoscopic gastrojejunostomy in our study was 150 min, for laparoscopic gastrectomy with gastro jejunal anastomosis was 230 min and for benign gastric tumours including GIST was 112 min. Type of anastomosis: Among 16 anastomoses, 2 oesophago - jejunal, 7 gastro - jejunal and 7 cases of gastro - gastric anastomosis were done. Jejuno - jejunal anastomoses are not included in this series. Both the oesophago - jejunal anastomoses were done by stapler method.Conclusions: It can be concluded that, minimal invasive surgeries for gastric diseases are feasible to perform. Blood loss, post-operative analgesia and hospital stay are less in laparoscopic procedures so it decreases over all hospital cost. Early post-operative recovery, decreased post-operative morbidity and avoiding unnecessary laparotomies are some of the other advantages of MIS. So, MIS should be considered as an alternative for open procedures in gastric disorders, for betterment of patient care.

Large intra-abdominal dermoid cyst presenting as small bowel volvulus
Authors: Kumar Suneed , Varty Gurudutt
Published: August 2017

Intestinal obstruction is one of the commonest abdominal emergencies requiring surgical intervention. Among its numerous causes, volvulus of the small and large bowel plays a less common aetiological role. This is a rare case of a large intra-abdominal dermoid cyst causing small bowel volvulus and presenting as obstruction. 46-year-old male presented with four-day history suggestive of acute small bowel obstruction, with gross abdominal distension on examination. With minimal investigations, he was explored to reveal a large 10×8 cm sized cystic mass in lower abdomen, with two vascular pedicles causing twisting of small bowel and resultant obstruction. Surgical intervention included unwinding of viable bowel, dividing pedicles and excision of the mass. The cyst was found to contain pultaceous material with hair and solid components. Patient tolerated the procedure well and was asymptomatic on discharge and subsequent follow-ups. This case illustrates an uncommon cause of a common presentation; an uncommon location of a relatively common cystic swelling; and the diagnostic surprise that was encountered during the management, thereby reiterating the need for keen observation and clinical acumen while dealing with such cases.

O filozofii politycznej Friedricha Augusta von Hayeka w świetle badań nad efektywnością ekonomiczną common law
Authors: Załuski Wojciech
Published: August 2017

Celem artykułu jest ocena filozofii politycznej Friedricha Augusta von Hayeka przez pryzmat badań nad efektywnością ekonomiczną common law. Jednym z założeń filozofii politycznej Hayeka jest teza o optymalizacyjnym charakterze ewolucji kulturowej. Zgodnie z tą tezą reguły prawne powstałe spontanicznie są ekonomicznie efektywne, nie wymagają więc istotnych korekt ze strony ustawodawcy. Teza ta została poddana dokładnym analizom przez badaczy z nurtu Law and Economics (notabene nie inspirowanych bezpośrednio filozofią Hayeka), których wyniki zostały krytycznie omówione w niniejszym artykule. Konkluzje tych analiz nie są jednoznaczne, niemniej jednak wydają się podważać założenie Hayeka o optymalizacyjnym charakterze ewolucji kulturowej. Rzutuje to w istotny sposób na ocenę postulatów normatywnych Hayeka; w szczególności, uzasadnia sceptycyzm wobec jego krytyki aktywności legislacyjnej.
Filozofia praw podmiotowych
Authors: Raburski Tomasz
Published: August 2017

Prawa podmiotowe (ang. rights) są jednym z czołowych pojęć w anglosaskiej filozofii prawa, filozofii politycznej i etyce. Polski dyskurs filozoficzny zajmuje się najczęściej szczegółowymi problemami lub typami praw podmiotowych (prawa człowieka, prawa konstytucyjne), brakuje natomiast refleksji filozoficznej nad prawami podmiotowymi w ogólności. Refleksję taką można odnaleźć w piśmiennictwie cywilistycznym i konstytucjonalistycznym. W artykule wskazano na różnice w polskim i angielskim dyskursie na temat praw podmiotowych, starano się połączyć różne obszary refleksji nad tymi prawami (w szczególności prawa, etyki i polityki) oraz wskazano na ich filozoficzny potencjał i zasadnicze kwestie problemowe.
Stosuj ustawy i rób, co chcesz? Pojęcie niezawisłości a deontologiczny model cnót sędziowskich
Authors: Rocławska Anna
Published: August 2017

W niniejszym artykule autorka rozważa niezawisłość sędziów w świetle modelu deontologii cnót. Analizuje ich decyzje i postawy w toku stosowania prawa, argumentując, że aspiracje, by realizować sędziowskie cnoty, mają charakter wtórny względem nadrzędnych wymogów przestrzegania prawa. Stawia tezę, że przestrzeń niezawisłości stanowi wyraz swoistego zaufania ustrojodawcy, iż sędziowie posiadają dyspozycje, które umożliwiają nie tylko wywiązywanie się z obowiązków, lecz także sprostanie wyzwaniom etycznym podczas orzekania. Przywołuje teorie orzekania w trudnych przypadkach autorstwa H. L. A. Harta i R. Dworkina oraz próbuje odpowiedzieć na pytanie, który z teoretycznych modeli – Hartowski czy Dworkinowski – lepiej charakteryzuje praktykę orzeczniczą polskiego wymiaru sprawiedliwości.
Game Engine Conventions and Games that Challenge them: Subverting Conventions as Metacommentary
Authors: Fiadotau Mikhail
Published: August 2017

Consumer-grade game engines such as Multimedia Fusion and RPG Maker have dramatically extended the reach of digital games as a medium. They have also spawned online communities, where conventions and canons of using these tools have evolved. These partly stem from the functional constraints of the game engines themselves and are institutionalized through manuals, examples, tutorials, and games made with them. However, some members of game engine communities actively seek to challenge these conventions by experimenting with the engines and finding ingenious ways to put them to unexpected uses. Such experiments can be regarded as a form of metacommentary on the engines’ capabilities and limitations. While arguably impractical and inefficient, they enrich the scope of what can be done with the engine and can contribute to its further development.
Avatars Going Mainstream: Typology of Tropes in Avatar-Based Storytelling Practices
Authors: Tymińska Marta
Published: August 2017

Due to the growing popularity of video games, gaming itself has become a shared experience among media audiences worldwide. The phenomenon of avatar-based games has led to the emergence of new storytelling practices. The paper proposes a typology of tropes in these avatar-based narratives focusing on non-game case studies. Suggested tropes are also confronted with the latest research on avatars in the area of game studies and current knowledge of the issues concerning the player-avatar relationship. Some of the most popular misconceptions regarding the gameplay experience and its representation in non-game media are exposed as a result of this analysis. The research confirms that popular culture perceives gaming experience as closely related to the player identity, as the latter inspires new genres of non-game narratives.

Traditional Market Accounting: Management or Financial Accounting?
Authors: Wiyarni Wiyarni
Published: August 2017

The purpose of this study is to explore the area of accounting in traditional market. There are two areas of accounting: management and financial accounting. Some of traditional market traders have prepared financial notes, whereas some of them do not. Their financial notes usually consist of receivables, payables, customer orders, inventories, sales and cost price, and salary expenses. The purpose of these financial notes is usually for decision making. It is very rare for the traditional market traders to prepare financial notes for external users, such as vendors, creditors, and customers. This is because their transactions with vendors, creditors, and customers are very simple. This study used interpretive paradigm. Data was collected using in-depth interview and direct interaction with four informants from three traditional markets. Data is analyzed by organizing them, breaking them into manageable units, coding them, synthesizing them, and searching for patterns. Based on the analysis, this study found that the accounting area of traditional market activities is management accounting rather than financial accounting.

Related to those phenomenon, this study aims to investigate model earnings management actions using foreign exchange losses (FEL) which provides a method for the detection of earnings management. By employing a quantitative approach, this study used secondary data of financial statements. The data were collected from 50 companies with the largest market capitalisation, 50 of the most active companies based on trading volume, 50 of the most active companies based on the value of trade and 50 of the most active companies by frequency trading. Totally, 200 public companies listed in Indonesia Stock Exchange were gained as the data based on IDX statistical report 2013. The results identify that FEL model is capable to detect earnings management from a transaction in foreign exchange losses. However, the model cannot capture the phenomenon of earnings management if the company does not own or reported long-term debt and profit/loss on foreign exchange. To prove whether the manager will perform earnings management from FEL, it is suggested to conduct further research using the hypothesis of positive accounting theory (PAT)

Authors: Cruz de Anhaia Bruna
Published: August 2017

O tema da inclusão social no ensino superior tem se transformado em questão prioritária de movimentos sociais, assim como de políticas públicas e de políticas de instituições de ensino superior como forma de superar desigualdades. Neste sentido, debates e mobilizações por ações afirmativas se deram por todo o país. Resulta daí que, em 2007, o Conselho Universitário da Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS) cria o Programa de Ações Afirmativas (PAA) na instituição. Desde o início de sua vigência em 2008 até o primeiro semestre de 2015, o Programa viabilizou o ingresso de 12.471 estudantes através da reserva de vagas (cotas) para candidatos de baixa renda, negros e indígenas. Destes novos estudantes, cerca de 3.360 ingressaram pelas cotas raciais para negros, dos quais 182 haviam se diplomado até aquele ano. Este artigo tem por objetivo abordar a experiência do PAAs na UFRGS, enfocando as cotas raciais para negros. Pretende-se compreender as estratégias adotadas pela instituição ao implementar uma política com este recorte e apresentar resultados, mencionar estratégias desenvolvidas por alguns destes estudantes para sua permanência e representatividade na instituição, além de suas perspectivas a respeito dos efeitos da política de cotas dentro e fora da Universidade.
CURSO DE BRANCO: UMA ABORDAGEM SOBRE ACESSO E PERMANÊNCIA ENTRE ESTUDANTES DE ORIGEM POPULAR NOS CURSOS DE SAÚDE DA UNIVERSIDADE FEDERAL DO RECÔNCAVO DA BAHIA (UFRB)

Published: August 2017

As Universidades brasileiras tradicionalmente tiveram entre os seus cursos aqueles chamados de “cursos de elite” ou cursos de alto prestígio, entre estes estavam o Direito, a Medicina e as Engenharias, trata-se de cursos superiores em que a entrada de pretos e pobres era estatisticamente improvável. Há pouco mais de uma década, as Políticas de Ações Afirmativas trouxeram ao ensino superior uma parcela significativa de jovens, antes excluídos da Universidade e que passaram a frequentar os cursos da “elite”. No caso da UFRB, encravada no Recôncavo Baiano, região marcadamente negra, o Centro de Ciências da Saúde (CCS) concentra os cursos de Nutrição, Psicologia, Enfermagem e Medicina, cujo acesso se dá, exclusivamente pelo Bacharelado Interdisciplinar em Saúde. Neste artigo, pretendemos abordar as questões que envolvem o acesso e a permanência simbólica destes jovens na Universidade.
O MOVIMENTO NEGRO BRASILEIRO E A LEI 10.639/03: DA CRIAÇÃO AOS DESAFIOS PARA A IMPLEMENTAÇÃO
Authors: Pereira Amilcar
Published: August 2017

O objetivo deste artigo é discutir o processo de criação da Lei 10.639/2003, que tornou obrigatório no Brasil o ensino de histórias e culturas africanas e afro-brasileiras, como resultado da ação do movimento negro brasileiro, bem como refletir sobre os desafios presentes que se impõem ao processo de implementação desta legislação, a partir das perspectivas de lideranças do movimento negro brasileiro por mim entrevistadas nos últimos anos. O processo histórico que resultou na criação da referida lei é bastante longo e complexo, mas indubitavelmente teve como protagonista o movimento social negro. Uma vez criada a legislação, o passo seguinte, e ainda mais complexo, é o processo de sua implementação em um país tão desigual e diverso como o Brasil. O que dizem, nesse sentido, as lideranças do movimento negro?

Authors: Cruz Ana Cristina , Cosentino Tatiane
Published: August 2017

Reduzido ao contexto dos conflitos fundiários, é assim, que, cotidianamente, nos veículos hegemônicos de comunicação, as comunidades quilombolas no Brasil têm visibilidade. Pouco se sabe sobre a história, as formas de organização, os conhecimentos, as culturas, a localização e as condições de vida dessas comunidades. Esta temática, por muito tempo, ficou circunscrita a pensadoras e pensadores que se dedicaram a retirar o quilombo de sua relação histórica com o período da escravidão e redimensioná-lo como um espaço de recriação cultural e política. Neste texto a intenção é analisar alguns aspectos no qual se insere a educação em comunidades quilombolas e discutir as implicações políticas e curriculares acerca desta temática.
