The crisis of democracy and the “look downwards”
Authors: Eberl Oliver , Jörke Dirk , Salomon David
Published: June 2023

Current diagnoses of a crisis of democracy in the Global North go hand in hand with a disparaging “look downwards.” Already in the nineteenth century, liberal thinkers formulated institutional precautions against the “rabble.” What is striking about the current devaluation discourse is that the return of this “look downwards” is not limited to libertarian or liberal-conservative concepts but is also present in progressive approaches. We demonstrate this for the German and Anglo-American discussion.
The History of German Literature on Film
Authors: Schönfeld Christiane
Published: June 2023

This book tells the story of German-language literature on film, beginning with pioneering motion picture adaptations of Faust in 1897 and early debates focused on high art as mass culture. It explores, analyzes and contextualizes the so-called ‘golden age’ of silent cinema in the 1920s, the impact of sound on adaptation practices, the abuse of literary heritage by Nazi filmmakers, and traces the role of German-language literature in exile and postwar films, across ideological boundaries in divided Germany, in New German Cinema, and in remakes and movies for cinema as well as television and streaming services in the 21st century. Having provided the narrative core to thousands of films since the late 19th century, many of German cinema’s most influential masterpieces were inspired by canonical texts, popular plays, and even children’s literature. Not being restricted to German adaptations, however, this book also traces the role of literature originally written in German in international film productions, which sheds light on the interrelation between cinema and key historical events. It outlines how processes of adaptation are shaped by global catastrophes and the emergence of nations, by materialist conditions, liberal economies and capitalist imperatives, political agendas, the mobility of individuals, and sometimes by the desire to create reflective surfaces and, perhaps, even art. Commercial cinema’s adaptation practices have foregrounded economic interest, but numerous filmmakers throughout cinema history have turned to German-language literature not simply to entertain, but as a creative contribution to the public sphere, marking adaptation practice, at least potentially, as a form of active citizenship.

Published: June 2023

This article aims to study the adaptation of Memórias Póstumas de Brás Cubas into História em Quadrinhos, whose objective is to analyze the (possible) implications of this adaptation for young readers, starting from the assumption that literature is art laden with elements socio-historical-cultural. This is a comparative and interpretative study developed from the analysis of convergent and divergent points between the Brazilian literary work adapted to the comic book genre by Escala Educacional and the original work. The results point to some changes in the essence of the original work that make it impossible for the young reader to appropriate the mentioned elements.
O professor na contemporaneidade
Authors: Luz Alcenor de Sousa
Published: June 2023

The growing technological advance has triggered the “information society”. Therefore, participating in an evolutionary process, it is believed that the subjects inserted in such a society had their lifestyles modified, due to the economic, social, political and cultural alterations pointed out by globalization. Faced with this reality, in the case of education, a question arises: has the role/attitude of the teacher changed? So, in order to reflect on the context and the aforementioned problem, this study takes an exploratory approach, of a bibliographical nature, on the current educational situation, discussing the attitude of the teacher in contemporary times, which includes a new way of teaching and learning. . Taking into account all the reflections raised in this work, it is clear that the role/attitude of the teacher has changed, since the target audience requires the reformulation of methods, techniques, instruments and resources, from the teacher-linguistic interaction student, to the use of new technologies. This new way of teaching and learning is the result of the style of new students, who are not motivated by the traditional exposure of content. Therefore, being an educator today is sharing a new paradigm, a new attitude towards the teaching-learning process.

La question de la honte et du rejet dans les textes autobiographiques d’écrivains dits transclasses
Authors: Kraenker Sabine , Annala Satu
Published: June 2023

Didier Eribon, Annie Ernaux et Édouard Louis pratiquent l’écriture de soi à la frontière de la littérature et de la sociologie. Leur parcours se caractérise par des transformations, celles par exemple de leur voix, de leur nom, de leur corps, de leurs lectures, de leur vocabulaire, et plus largement par l’effacement de toutes les traces de ce qu’ils ont été –en même temps qu’ils révèlent le milieu social défavorisé d’où ils sont originaires. Leurs textes donnent souvent lieu à des discours qui énoncent la honte qu’ils ont ressentie à l’égard de leurs parents, transgressant le discours aimant attendu à l’égard de leurs proches. C’est ce discours intime dans ses excès et porté sur la place publique que nous nous proposons d’analyser en nous concentrant, pour des raisons de taille de corpus, sur les textes d’Édouard Louis. Il s’agira de décrire le phénomène littéraire en question et d’examiner l’écriture excessive qui s’y déploie.

DIREITO DO CONSUMIDOR E O IRDR - INCIDENTES DE RESOLUÇÃO DE DEMANDAS REPETITIVAS
Authors: Lomas Yuri Lima
Published: June 2023

O presente artigo tem como objetivo analisar a introdução do IRDR no ordenamento jurídico brasileiro através dos arts. 976 a 987 na defesa dos direitos do consumidor, principalmente pela falta de ferramentas que seriam capazes de identificar tais transações. O novo CPC, preocupado em solucionar essas adversidades, buscou valorizar o sistema de precedentes e lançou instrumentos de gerenciamento de casos repetitivos, como ocorre com o IRDR. A partir da metodologia de pesquisas bibliográfica e jurisprudencial, observa-se que apesar da plena aptidão do Incidente para solucionar a questão das demandas de massa no direito consumerista, o instituto ainda é pouco utilizado pelos tribunais principalmente neste ramo do direito.
Viticulture extension in response to global climate change drivers – lessons from the past and future projections
Authors: Guiot Joel , Bernigaud Nicolas , Bondeau Alberte , Bouby Laurent , Cramer Wolfgang
Published: June 2023

Abstract. The potential areal extent of agricultural crops is sensitive to climate
change and its underlying drivers. To distinguish between the drivers of
past variations in the Mediterranean viticulture extension since Early
Antiquity and improve projections for the future, we propose an original
attribution method based on an emulation of offline coupled climate and
ecosystem models. The emulator connects the potential productivity of
grapevines to global direct and indirect climate drivers, notably orbital
parameters, solar and volcanic activities, demography, and greenhouse gas
concentrations. This approach is particularly useful to place the evolution
of future agrosystems in the context of their past variations. We found that variations in potential area for viticulture during the last 3 millennia in the Mediterranean Basin were mainly due to volcanic activity, while the effects of solar activity and orbital changes were negligible. In the future, as expected, the dominating factor is the increase in greenhouse gases, causing significantly drier conditions and thus major difficulties for viticulture in Spain and North Africa. These constraints will concern significant areas of the southern Mediterranean Basin when global warming exceeds +2 ∘C above preindustrial conditions. Our experiments showed that even intense volcanic activity comparable to that of the Samalas – sometimes considered to be the starting point of the Little Ice Age in the mid-13th century – would not decrease aridity and so not slow down this decline in viticulture extension in the southern margin of the Mediterranean area. This result does not confirm the idea of geoengineering that solar radiation modification (SRM) is an efficient option to limit future global warming.
Opinion: Aerosol Remote Sensing Over The Next Twenty Years
Authors: Remer Lorraine A. , Levy Robert C. , Martins J. Vanderlei
Published: June 2023

Abstract. Twenty years ago, aerosol remote sensing underwent a revolution with the launch of the Terra and Aqua satellites, followed by additional launches carrying new passive and active sensors. Capable of retrieving information about aerosol loading, rudimentary particle properties and in some cases aerosol layer height, the satellite view of Earth’s aerosol system came into focus. Today we see trends developing in the aerosol remote sensing and modeling communities that allow us to speculate about the future and how the community will approach aerosol remote sensing twenty years from now. We anticipate technology that will replace today’s standard multi-wavelength radiometers with hyperspectral and/or polarimetry all viewing in multiple angles. These will be supported by advanced active sensors with the ability to measure profiles of aerosol extinction in addition to backscatter. The result will be greater insight into aerosol particle properties. Algorithms will move from being primarily physically-based to include an increasing degree of Machine Learning methods, but physically-based techniques will not go extinct. However, the concept of applying algorithms to a single sensor will no longer exist. Retrieval algorithms will encompass multiple sensors and all available ground measurements into a unifying framework, and these inverted products will be ingested directly into assimilation systems, becoming “cyborgs”: half observations, half model. In twenty years we will see a true democratization in space with nations large and small, private organizations and commercial entities of all sizes launching space sensors. With this increasing amount of data and aerosol products available, there will be a lot of bad data. User communities will organize to set standards and the large national space agencies will lead the effort to maintain quality by deploying and maintaining validation ground networks and focused field experiments. Through it all, interest will remain high in the global aerosol system and how that systems affects climate, clouds, precipitation and dynamics, air quality, transport of pathogens and fertilization of ecosystems, and how these processes are adapting to a changing climate.
El fortalecimiento del autoritarismo en Arabia Saudí: la lógica de two-level games bajo el gobierno neopatrimonial de facto de Muhammad bin Salman
Authors: Hernández Morán Marlene
Published: June 2023

El presente texto tiene por objetivo analizar el fortalecimiento del autoritarismo y del militarismo en Arabia Saudí a partir del nombramiento del Mūḥammad Bin Salmān como ministro de Defensa (2015), examinando la política que ha impulsado bajo la lógica de lo que se conoce como two level games. Se parte de dos ejes: un proyecto de diversificación económica a la par de una modernización basada en el avance tecnológico, en las cuales, su participación en la guerra en Yemen ha tenido un rol importante; por otro lado, a nivel regional y global con el impulso de una diplomacia pública que ha pretendido difundir una imagen de Arabia Saudí como un país moderno y a favor de los derechos humanos, a pesar de la constante represión y violación a tales derechos. La política del príncipe Mūḥammad Bin Salmān se ha basado en el desarrollo de un neopatrimonialismo instrumentalizado en la preparación de un contexto interno y externo favorables para su futuro ascenso como rey. Para alcanzar el objetivo planteado, el artículo se estructura en tres apartados: en el primero se explica el marco conceptual que será útil para examinar las políticas de Mohammed Bin Salman, tales como el autoritarismo, el militarismo, el neopatrimonialismo y la lógica de two level games; en el segundo apartado se revisa brevemente el contexto de Arabia Saudí a partir de 2005, con el ascenso de Abdala ibn Abd al-Azīz al-Sa‘ūd, que servirá como antecedente de los cambios y continuidades del reinado del actual rey, Salmān Bin Abdulaziz y con ello, la participación de Mūḥammad Bin Salmān.
La ley marroquí sobre las condiciones de trabajo y empleo de las trabajadoras y trabajadores domésticos: contextualización y contenido
Authors: Garratón Mateu Carmen
Published: June 2023

Resumen. En 2018 entró en vigor la Ley 19-12 que fija las condiciones de trabajo y de empleo de las trabajadoras y trabajadores domésticos. La promulgación de esta norma pionera ha contribuido a llenar un vacío legal que afectaba a un ámbito laboral especialmente feminizado e infravalorado, carente de visibilidad y de reconocimiento social. El principal objetivo de este artículo es analizar el contenido e impacto de dicha ley en el contexto del mercado laboral marroquí. Para ello, en un primer momento se describen las características del servicio doméstico en Marruecos y la compleja realidad de las trabajadoras domésticas, desde un enfoque interseccional que pone de relieve la heterogeneidad y vulnerabilidad del colectivo. Se dedica una atención especial a la situación las trabajadoras menores o petites bonnes para las que la ley ha previsto un periodo transitorio que pretende poner fin a esta lacra. A continuación, se detallan la génesis y el contenido de la ley para finalizar con unas conclusiones que recogen un sucinto balance inicial de su aplicación y las principales carencias observadas en la misma.

Mục tiêu: So sánh hiệu quả, mô tả tác dụng phụ và đánh giá tái phát của Lactobacillus acidophilus so với metronidazol trong điều trị viêm âm đạo không đặc hiệu tại Bệnh viện Da liễu TP. Hồ Chí Minh. Đối tượng và phương pháp: Thử nghiệm lâm sàng thực hiện trên 65 bệnh nhân viêm âm đạo do vi khuẩn được lựa chọn ngẫu nhiên vào ba nhóm. Nhóm 1: Gồm 24 bệnh nhân điều trị metronidazole uống 1g/ngày trong 7 ngày phối hợp với Lactobacillus acidophilus đặt âm đạo 1 viên/ngày trong 6 ngày. Nhóm 2 gồm 25 bệnh nhân điều trị metronidazole uống 1g/ngày trong 7 ngày. Nhóm 3 gồm 16 bệnh nhân điều trị Lactobacillus acidophilus đặt âm đạo 1 viên/ngày trong 6 ngày. Các bệnh nhân sẽ được hẹn tái khám sau 2 tuần, 1 tháng và 3 tháng để đánh giá. Kết quả: Các bệnh nhân trong nhóm 1 có tỷ lệ đáp ứng tốt và có đáp ứng cao hơn so với nhóm 2, sự khác biệt này không có ý nghĩa thống kê (p=0,576). Ngược lại, nhóm 1 và nhóm 2 có tỷ lệ đáp ứng cao hơn có ý nghĩa thống kê so với nhóm 3 với p lần lượt là 0,004 và 0,03. Tương tự, các bệnh nhân trong nhóm 1 và nhóm 2 có tỷ lệ hài lòng cao hơn so với nhóm 3. Thời gian hết bệnh của nhóm 3 là 3,19 ± 1,377 tuần, dài hơn có ý nghĩa thống kê so với nhóm 1 là 2,13 ± 0,612 tuần và nhóm 2 là 2,4 ± 0,816 tuần.

Việc phối hợp điều trị giúp giảm tái phát hơn so với điều trị đơn độc. Kết luận: Việc điều trị viêm âm đạo do vi khuẩn khi phối hợp kháng sinh và probiotics có tỷ lệ đáp ứng bệnh cao hơn so với kháng sinh đơn độc nhưng chưa đủ để tạo nên sự khác biệt có ý nghĩa thống kê. Tuy nhiên, điều trị phối hợp thuốc giúp giảm tỷ lệ tái phát ngắn hạn và dài hạn.
Homoeopathic Management in a Case of Gynecomastia and Hyperthyroidism
Authors: Das Mousumi , Verma Dileep Kumar
Published: June 2023

Gynecomastia is the term used to describe the benign growth of glandular breast tissue in men. Males of any age, from infancy to old age, can be affected by it. It is explained by the formation of breast tissue that is larger than 2 cm. Nearly all cases are physiological, however it's critical to identify pathological causes because they require specialised care or treatment. Up to 70% of all boys and up to 2/3 of all adult males develop pubertal gynecomastia, which can be felt when being examined.Physiological gynaecomastia is usually seen in newborns, adolescents, and older men. A case of a 20 year old boy is presented here who was presented with pathological gynaecomastia and hyperthyroidism was treated with individualised homoeopathic medicine. The gynaecomastia and hyperthyroidism disappeared within a short period of treatment with general improvement of the patient.

Key words: Physiological Gynecomastia, Pathological gynecomastia, Repertorisation, Individualised homoeopathic medicine.

Effects of Lower Extremity Resistance Training on Unstable Versus Stable Surface to Prevent Fall in Healthy Older Adults: A Comparative Study
Authors: Pentewar Sayali , Sawant Shweta , Deshmukh Prajakta
Published: June 2023

Background: In the course of ageing, physical abilities decline and consequently there is an increase in risk of falling and fall incidence. Falls in India showed annual falls rates for older adults between 14 and 51 % . Loss of self- confidence, social isolation, increased dependence on others caused due to fear of fall are among the major consequences faced by elderly in day to day life. The fact that causes of falls are multifactorial loses in lower extremity muscle strength, power and balance seem to be the most prominent intrinsic (i.e. Personal - related) fall risk factor in older adults. Lower extremity resistance training can improve strength, balance and prevent fall in healthy adults. Lower extremity resistance training on unstable surface should be given on bosu ball and lower extremity resistance training on stable surface should be given on floor.
Objective: The aim of this study is to study and compare the effects of lower extremity resistance training on unstable versus stable surface to prevent fall in healthy older adult.
Material and Methodology: The study was conducted at Nanded Physiotherapy College and Research Centre. A convenient sampling was taken consisting of 48 participants, based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. Where they performed Double leg stance, Single leg stance, Marching, Mini-squats, Bridging on Bosuball for group A participants and on floor for group B participants. The subjects were assessed pre-intervention and post-intervention on the basis of Functional reach test and Berg balance scale. Total 48 participants were taken, who were aged 60 and above. These participants were divided into two groups. These participants were administered in lower extremity resistance training for 8 repetitions per set, 2 sets, 1 time a day, 2 days a week for 4 week.
Result: For FRT and BBS the p-value was <0.0001. Hence there was statistical significance of treatment in pre and post within both groups. The study supports that effects of lower extremity resistance training on unstable surface is more effective than stable surface to prevent fall in healthy older adults.

Key words: Falls, healthy adults, resistance training, unstable surface, stable surface, balance, strength.

Authors: Azizah Lutfiana
Published: June 2023

Nelayan kecil Anambas adalah nelayan tangkap tradisional di wilayah pulau terluar Indonesia yang saat ini mengalami keterbatasan dan krisis pada mata pencahariannya. Keterbatasan pada nelayan tradisional di pulau terluar terlihat pada kurangnya kapasitas infrastruktur perikanan, rendahnya armada perikanan tangkap, mahalnya bahan bakar minyak, serta keterbatasan produksi es untuk kebutuhan aktivitas melaut. Sedangkan krisis yang dialami oleh nelayan Anambas mencakup kekurangan sumber daya perikanan akibat Illegal, Unreported dan Unregulated (IUU) fishing dan over fishing, badai dan perubahan iklim, dan ketidakstabilan harga ikan. Penelitian ini dilaksanakan dengan menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif, yang bertujuan untuk mendeskripsikan faktor internal dan eksternal yang menghambat nelayan dalam upaya bertahan hidup saat beraktivitas di laut dan di darat. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa, hambatan secara internal berasal dari dalam diri nelayan, diantaranya adalah tidak berupaya untuk keluar dari wilayah tangkap utama dan kesulitan bekerja selain melaut. Adapun hambatan eksternal menggambarkan keterbatasan terhadap aturan kawasan platform migas, kerugian dari aktivitas pukat mayang, kondisi alam yang merugikan, dan kerentanan dalam transaksi ekonomi.

Este trabalho trata das estratégias utilizadas no processo avaliativo em uma Escola Estadual do Cariri Paraibano e teve como objetivo geral: compreender como ocorre o processo de avaliação, que é utilizado por professores do Ensino Médio do Cariri Paraibano. Para o desenvolvimento e realização deste, foram feitas pesquisas bibliográficas e de campo. A partir da pesquisa bibliográfica foi trabalhada a Avaliação na perspectiva teórica. Para este, fora adotada a concepção de vários teóricos, dentre eles: Tyler (1975); Cronbach (1963); Scriven e Libâneo (1994) que compõem o referencial teórico dividido em duas seções. A primeira refere-se à Avaliação na perspectiva teórica e a segunda seção trata do Processo avaliativo no Ensino Médio. A pesquisa de campo foi realizada com quatro professores da referida Escola Estadual. Realizamos uma pesquisa qualitativa e exploratória de acordo com Gil (2008). Os dados foram coletados a partir de entrevista semiestruturada. Os resultados foram divididos em três blocos, a saber: Formação dos professores e o lugar da Avalição na formação; Significado e Finalidade da Avaliação para os professores e Estratégias/instrumentos utilizados no processo avaliativo. O primeiro bloco apresenta o perfil formativo dos professores e o lugar da avaliação na formação, neste, os dados apontaram que durante a formação, os professores não cursaram disciplinas sobre a Avaliação. O segundo trata da compreensão dos professores sobre a finalidade e o significado da Avaliação, os professores apresentaram em seus discursos que a finalidade da avaliação não é apenas coletar dados qualitativos, porém, alguns professores apresentam significado distorcido do real sentido da Avaliação. O terceiro bloco apresenta as estratégias que os professores utilizam no processo avaliativo, bem como as dificuldades e as facilidades das estratégias/instrumentos/métodos que utilizam. Os dados apontaram que os professores utilizam vários e diferentes estratégias/instrumentos/métodos para a realização desse processo, podendo assim avaliar várias competências nos alunos.
Cinematografia da Paraíba para o ensino de sociologia.
Authors:   , Diones Nunes dos Santos José
Published: June 2023

O presente trabalho investigou cinco livros didáticos adotados no Cariri Ocidental da Paraíba e suas grades fílmicas propostas para o Ensino de Sociologia. Neste sentido, buscou-se saber a relação do cinema estrangeiro x nacional contido nos livros e as durações correspondentes ao tempo da aula de cinquenta minutos. Além do mais, foram entrevistadas quatro professoras de diferentes cidades da região do Cariri paraibano, em busca de conseguir entender como se constituem suas relações com o cinema em sala de aula. Através do estudo realizado, foi possível comprovar que as professoras adotam nas aulas os filmes propostos nos livros, que em sua grande maioria são longas-metragens, ou, raras exceções, curtas-metragens estrangeiros e nacionais. Foi diagnosticado, também, que muitos professores desconhecem a Lei nº. 13.006/14 que torna obrigatório a exibição do cinema nacional em sala de aula por duas horas mensais. Diante do que foi apresentado, proponho nesse estudo contribuir com uma grade fílmica do cinema de curta-metragem paraibano para o Ensino de Sociologia. A filmografia proposta para o ensino de Sociologia atende às três séries do Ensino Médio (1ª, 2ª, 3ª), considerando as orientações dos marcos regulatórios da Base Nacional Comum Curricular - BNCC, e o tempo de duração da aula.
Parallel time integration using Batched BLAS routines
Authors: Herb Konstantin
Published: June 2023

Quantum technologies have emerged as promising avenues for advancing various fields. The development of these technologies requires precise quantum control. To achieve this, the development of novel control schemes necessitates interactive supercomputing, fast optimization techniques, and advanced test and measurement equipment. In this talk, we delve into the realm of quantum control, with a focus on manipulating quantum systems using Hamiltonians composed of drift and control terms over many time steps. This can be efficiently achieved in highly parallel on GPUs. The performance boost is particularly prominent for small to medium-sized quantum systems, which represent the majority of systems currently under experimental investigation. Our scheme, called PARAlellized Matrix Exponentiation for Numerical Time evolution (PARAMENT), leverages exponential integrators and relies solely on BatchedBLAS functions. This enables easy adaptation of PARAMENT to various applications.

Companies have been adapting their strategic decisions in order to align with Sustainable Development Goals since 2015. A motivation for companies to align their strategic decisions with Sustainable Development Goals is to gain legitimacy among supranational organizations, governments, and civil society. Some demonstrate the strength of their commitment to these goals by investing in innovations designed to boost their organizational performance; while others turn to greenwashing in a bid to maintain profits. Investing in sustainability innovations has become a key manifestation of firms’ commitment to Sustainable Development. This study aims to analyse the interaction between sustainability commitment, innovations for sustainability and organizational performance. A sample of 3,420 companies for the period 2015 to 2020 is used to test two working hypotheses. Despite the significant gains it brings in terms of sustainability performance, the results show that investing in innovation for sustainability carries the risk of short-term losses. This has several implications. Some companies may subscribe to Sustainable Development Goals in their pursuit of legitimacy rather than out of true commitment. However, actual engagement in innovation for sustainability can attract potential investors, and, in our view, should be encouraged by politicians and lawmakers.
Accelerating Climate Action in Africa: Insights from the 2022 Voluntary National Reviews
Authors: Okisatari Mahesti , Khalid Ahmad Mohd
Published: June 2023

African countries are progressing on SDG 13 (climate action) and strengthening their implementation, despite the insufficient delivery of climate finance. Recognising these countries' vulnerability to the impacts of climate change, accelerated efforts are necessary to build an enabling environment — political, legal, technical, financial, and programmatic — aligned with each country’s needs and priorities. This policy brief offers recommendations for national policymakers in Africa to strengthen climate strategies, based on analysis of the 21 VNRs presented by African countries in 2022 (see Notes). It provides insights to better synergise SDG 13 efforts (e.g., with NDCs), considering the state of data reporting and the critical role of finance, capacity-building, and partnerships for climate action. Recommendations: (i) enhance monitoring, reporting, and evaluation for SDG 13 and associated indicators across all levels and sectoral scales; (ii) take urgent action to increase financial flows and improve resource mobilisation; (iii) accelerate the local adoption of disaster risk reduction strategies and climate action plans; (iv) strengthen policy and legal frameworks and increase efforts to improve institutional capacity.
guerra do contestado sob a ótica da obra o jagunço:
Authors: Dos Santos Maria Cristina Ferreira , Bazzanella Sandro Luiz , Muchalovski Eloi Giovane , Tomporoski Alexandre Assis , Maciel Juliana
Published: June 2023

O presente artigo tem por objetivo abordar a Guerra do Contestado na perspectiva de manifestação máxima da violência perpetrada pelo Estado brasileiro, a serviço de interesses empresariais e de coronéis locais e regionais. Demonstra-se que a violência, em suas múltiplas formas, atua também no aniquilamento da memória, das práticas, das vivências e da visão de mundo dos vencidos. Para o vencedor, configura-se como um mecanismo a legitimar a brutalidade de sua ação pela desqualificação do outro, daquele que foi violentado das mais diversas formas, seja por meio físico, simbólico ou discursivo. Nessa perspectiva de análise, propõem-se refletir sobre a violência discursiva presente na obra O Jagunço, na qual invisibiliza-se o protagonismo das mulheres no Movimento do Contestado. Conclui-se que a resistência dos vencidos por meio da preservação de sua memória, e sobretudo a reflexão e o debate em torno de sua visão de mundo, é socialmente legítima, urgente e necessária diante da perpetuação simbólica da guerra por meios literários.
