TÜRKİYE VE AB ÜLKELERİNDE YAŞLI NÜFUSUN GÖRÜNÜMÜ
Authors: ÖZTÜRK BAŞOL Rüveyda
Published: June 2019

Birleşmiş Milletler’in tanımına göre bir ülkedeki yaşlı nüfusun toplam nüfus içindeki oranının %8 ile %10 arasında olması o ülke nüfusunun “yaşlı”, %10’un üzerinde olması ise “çok yaşlı” olduğu anlamına gelmektedir. Nüfusu yaşlanan ülkeler, aktif nüfus payının azalması ve sosyal güvenlik sistemleri sorunları yaşayabilmektedir. Mevcut çalışma, Türkiye ve AB ülkelerinde 65 yaş üstü nüfusun toplam nüfus içindeki oranlarını, yaşlı bağımlılık oranlarını, yaşlı bağımlılık oranı projeksiyonlarını ve 65 yaş üstü nüfusun işgücüne katılım oranlarını karşılaştırmayı hedeflemekledir. Sonuçlar; Türkiye’de yaşlı nüfusun toplam nüfus içindeki payının AB ülkelerine kıyasla daha düşük olduğunu ancak son 10 yılda Türkiye’nin daha hızlı bir biçimde yaşlandığını; Türkiye’nin yaşlı bağımlılık oranları bağlamında AB ülkelerinden daha düşük bir orana sahip olmasına rağmen yaşlı bağımlılık oranının daha hızlı arttığını; 50 yıllık projeksiyonlara göre yaşlı bağımlılığının Türkiye’de AB ülkelerine kıyasla daha dramatik biçimde artacağını ve son olarak da Türkiye’de yaşlıların işgücüne katılım oranlarının AB ülkelerine oranla daha yüksek olduğunu göstermiştir.
Roberto Correa dos Santos: a traça, o traçado da obra
Authors: Gutierrez Mauricio Chamarelli
Published: June 2019

A obra de Roberto Correa dos Santos desafia os limites de gênero, situando-se em um limiar onde talvez não importe mais a determinação de uma obra como ‘poema’, ‘ensaio’ ou ‘livro-de-artista’. A convocação de nomes de autores e obras alheios (Clarice Lispector, Luiza Neto Jorge, Oswald de Andrade, Artaud), para os títulos e o corpo dessa escrita, parece ainda querer situá-la no horizonte de uma crítica literária anômala, na medida em que rasura a divisão tradicional entre texto (suposto) primeiro – literário – e texto (suposto) secundário – crítico-teórico. Interessaria ler esse gesto de inscrição rasurada do outro em ressonância com la trace derridiana talvez em mais de um sentido. Primeiramente, enquanto rastro originário que desconstrói a divisão presença/representação que a crítica, como concebida habitualmente, herda e reafirma por meio da divisão texto primeiro/paráfrase, explicação ou análise crítica. Mas, sobretudo, gostaríamos de acatar uma provocação verbal do professor Luiz Fernando Medeiros, que propunha pensar la trace em uma tradução traidora que preservaria na palavra o gênero feminino do francês: enquanto a traça – esse inseto desconstrucionista – figura frequente, aliás, na obra de Roberto – que percorre os livros em transversal antropofágica, deglutindo e escrevendo, por entre as obras alheias, o seu traçado tracejado.

We report on a detailed optical spectroscopic follow-up of the black hole (BH) transient MAXI J1820+070 (ASASSN-18ey). The observations cover the main part of the X-ray binary outburst, when the source alternated between hard and soft states following the classical pattern widely seen in other systems. We focus the analysis on the He i emission lines at 5876 and 6678 Å, as well as on Hα. We detect clear accretion disk wind features (P-Cyg profiles and broad emission line wings) in the hard state, both during outburst rise and decay. These are not witnessed during the several months long soft state. However, our data suggest that the visibility of the outflow might be significantly affected by the ionization state of the accretion disk. The terminal velocity of the wind is above ∼1200 km s−1, which is similar to outflow velocities derived from (hard-state) optical winds and (soft-state) X-ray winds in other systems. The wind signatures, in particular the P-Cyg profiles, are very shallow, and their detection has only been possible thanks to a combination of source brightness and intense monitoring at very high signal-to-noise. This study indicates that cold, optical winds are most likely a common feature of BH accretion, and therefore, that wind-like outflows are a general mechanism of mass and angular momentum removal operating throughout the entire X-ray binary outburst.
Natural enemies of the oil-collecting bee Centris analis (Fabricius, 1804) with notes on the behavior of the cleptoparasite Coelioxys nigrofimbriata Cockerell, 1919 (Hymenoptera, Apidae)
Authors: Parizotto Daniele Regina
Published: June 2019

This work presents a review of natural enemy species associated withCentrisanalisand summarizes the available information on life history, behavior, diversity, and specialization of these taxa. Records include over 20 species in ten genera from seven distinct families of Hymenoptera, Diptera and Coleoptera. These species are cleptoparasites or parasitoids of immature stages or adults. Some species seem to be occasional parasitoids, while others seem to be more frequent and responsible for significant mortality rates of immatures in nests. Three families of Hymenoptera represent the majority of natural enemy taxa found inC.analisnests: Apidae, Chrysididae, and Leucospidae. The most frequent parasitoid reared from nests was the waspLeucospiscayennensisWestwood, followed by cleptoparasitic bee species of the genusCoelioxysLatreille. Vouchers of trap nest studies are identified for the first time and refer toCoelioxysnigrofimbriataCockerell, which seems to have a strong association with nests ofC.analis. Further direct observation notes about biology and behavior ofC.nigrofimbriataare also provided.

The ants of Ohio (Hymenoptera, Formicidae): an updated checklist
Authors: Ivanov Kaloyan
Published: June 2019

I update the last published list of Ohio ants to include 26 new species records and 38 name changes in species already on the list based on literature records, institutional collections, and contemporary collections made by the author or colleagues. At present, 143 species and morphospecies representing 30 native and 5 exotic genera and 7 subfamilies have been recorded for the state. Another seven species are removed from the Ohio ant fauna as they represent distribution anomalies, or are based on erroneous records. Known distribution data suggest that there is still a considerable potential for the discovery of more ant taxa in Ohio.

Introduction: Valproic acid (VA) is carboxylic acid with a branched chain, which is used as an antiepileptic drug.

Valproic acid influence on cells in vivo: VA, which is an antiepileptic drug, is also a teratogen, which causes defects of a neural tube and an axial skeleton, although the mechanisms are not yet fully clear.

Valproic acid influence on mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) in vitro: It is shown that valproic acid reduces the intracellular level of oxygen active forms.

Valproic acid effect on tumor cells: VA inhibits tumor growth through several mechanisms, including the cell cycle stop, differentiation induction and inhibition of growth of tumor vessels. Valproic acid influence on enzymes: It affects mainly GSK-3.

Valproic acid influence on animals’ cells: It is shown that VA can significantly improve an ability to develop in vitro and improve nuclear reprogramming of embryos.

Erythropoietin (EPO): Is an hypoxia-induced hormone and a cytokine, which is necessary for normal erythropoiesis. EPO is widely used in in vitro experiments.

Conclusion: Thus, the influence of VA and EPO on cells can be used in cell technologies

Convergence in Electricity Consumption among Selected West African Countries
Authors: Hassan Yusuf Abdulwahab , Isiaka Muideen Adejare
Published: June 2019

This study tests the convergence in electricity consumption per capita among selected West African countries participating in the integration of their electricity market under the West African Power Pool (WAPP) initiative over the time period of 1971-2014. This study is significant as it helps clarify a concern within the area of energy economics; that is, whether cross-sectional differences in electricity-related measures across countries shrink over time. An answer to this would further help understand how electricity intensity tends to increase in countries that have relatively low electricity intensity for their low-income level. To this end, the study applies panel unit root tests. The results indicate that the per capita electricity consumption is not converging for the selected countries. The findings suggest that the goals of the WAPP initiative have not improved electrification access. Therefore, policymakers need to reassess the programme in order to ensure that its objectives are achieved.

Published: June 2019

We previously reported that pegylated IFN-α2a (Peg–IFN-α2a) added to antiretroviral therapy (ART)–suppressed, HIV-infected subjects resulted in plasma HIV control and integrated HIV DNA decrease. We now evaluated whether innate NK cell activity or PBMC transcriptional profiles were associated with decreases in HIV measures. Human peripheral blood was analyzed prior to Peg–IFN-α2a administration (ART, baseline), after 5 wk of ART+Peg–IFN-α2a, and after 12 wk of Peg–IFN-α2a monotherapy (primary endpoint). After 5 wk of ART+Peg–IFN-α2a, immune subset frequencies were preserved, and induction of IFN-stimulated genes was noted in all subjects except for a subset in which the lack of IFN-stimulated gene induction was associated with increased expression of microRNAs. Viral control during Peg–IFN-α2a monotherapy was associated with 1) higher levels of NK cell activity and IFN-γ–induced protein 10 (IP-10) on ART (preimmunotherapy) and 2) downmodulation of NK cell KIR2DL1 and KIR2DL2/DL3 expression, transcriptional enrichment of expression of genes associated with NK cells in HIV controller subjects, and higher ex vivo IFN-α–induced NK cytotoxicity after 5 wk of ART+Peg–IFN-α2a. Integrated HIV DNA decline after immunotherapy was also associated with gene expression patterns indicative of cell-mediated activation and NK cytotoxicity. Overall, an increase in innate activity and NK cell cytotoxicity were identified as correlates of Peg–IFN-α2a–mediated HIV control.
The Metabolic Cytokine Adiponectin Inhibits Inflammatory Lung Pathology in Invasive Aspergillosis
Authors: Amarsaikhan Nansalmaa , Tsoggerel Angar , Hug Christopher , Templeton Steven P.
Published: June 2019

Systemic immunity and metabolism are coregulated by soluble factors, including the insulin-regulating adipose tissue cytokine adiponectin. How these factors impact detrimental inflammatory responses during fungal infection remains unknown. In this study, we observed that mortality, fungal burden, and tissue histopathology were increased in adiponectin-deficient mice in a neutropenic model of invasive aspergillosis. Lung RNA sequencing, quantitative RT-PCR, and subsequent pathway analysis demonstrated activation of inflammatory cytokine pathways with upstream regulation by IL-1 and TNF in adiponectin-deficient mice with decreased/inhibited anti-inflammatory genes/pathways, suggesting broad cytokine-mediated pathology along with ineffective fungal clearance. Quantitative RT-PCR analysis confirmed increased transcription of IL-1a, IL-6, IL-12b, IL-17A/F, and TNF in adiponectin-deficient mice at early time points postinfection, with a specific increase in intracellular TNF in alveolar macrophages. Although eosinophil recruitment and activation were increased in adiponectin-deficient mice, mortality was delayed, but not decreased, in mice deficient in both adiponectin and eosinophils. Interestingly, neutrophil depletion was required for increased inflammation in adiponectin-deficient mice in response to swollen/fixed conidia, suggesting that immune suppression enhances detrimental inflammation, whereas invasive fungal growth is dispensable. Our results suggest that adiponectin inhibits excessive lung inflammation in invasive aspergillosis. Our study has therefore identified the adiponectin pathway as a potential source for novel therapeutics in immune-compromised patients with detrimental immunity to invasive fungal infection.
Ultrasonography: A Step Forward in Temporomandibular Joint Imaging. A Preliminary Descriptive Study
Authors: Kumar L.K. Surej , Zachariah Georgie P. , Chandran Sumesh
Published: June 2019

Ultrasonography (USG) is a cost-effective and noninvasive imaging modality commonly employed for imaging the abdominal region and extremities. Currently, with the availability of higher frequency probes and higher resolution devices, USG imaging of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) looks promising. The aim is to evaluate and demonstrate the role of USG as an imaging modality of TMJ by visualizing the static and dynamic relationship of the joint, assessment of joint space and eliciting reproducibility at both open and closed mouth positions. 30 volunteers were selected based on the inclusion criteria in line with the research diagnostic criteria/temporomandibular disorders guidelines. High-resolution USG (≥12 MHz) of the right TMJ (chosen for uniformity) was done in the left decubitus position on (n=30) volunteers. The joint disc movement was directly visualized during opening and closing motions. The vertical joint space was assessed using the firmware and accurate reproducibility was checked. At the closed mouth position, the measured values ranged from 0.2 mm to 0.7 mm with a median of 0.05 cm and a mean of 0.4±0.15 mm. At the position of maximal mouth opening, the measured values ranged from 0.9 mm to 1.5 mm with a median of 1.1 mm and a mean of 1.1±0.17 mm. USG enables visualization of the dynamic relationship between joint structures, with particular importance to the condyle and disc position. The articular disc appears on the USG as a thin layer of hyperechogenicity surrounded by a hypoechoic halo, located between 2 hyperechoic lines viz, the condyle and the articular eminence. We recommend ultrasonographic imaging as a noninvasive diagnostic technique with relatively high specificity for patients with temporomandibular disorders.
‘Remember the law of Moses’: Malachi 3:22 in prophetic eschatology, with a missional postscript
Authors: Wielenga Bob
Published: June 2019

This study investigates the function of Malachi 3:22 in the context of prophetic eschatology as reflected in Malachi’s message about the delay of the expected Day of the Lord, which focuses on the charge to ‘remember the law of my servant Moses (…) I gave him at Horeb for all Israel’. This article examines the question how this charge serves the purpose of awaiting in the interim time the advent of the Day of the Lord. Firstly, a textual analysis is given of Malachi 3:22 in the context of the body of the book. Secondly, an eschatological application of the text is attempted with the help of selected texts from Deuteronomy 12:5, 11 (on worship) and 24:1–4 (on the treatment of women), addressing the problems in Malachi 1:6–2:9 and 2:10–16. Thirdly, the missional inferences of Malachi 3:22 for the present time are condensed in a postscript.

Authors: Hale L. A. , Eales C. J. , Steward A. , Fritz V. U.
Published: June 2019

A purposeful sample of Black Sowetan residents who had sustained a stroke were studied to identify the problems they were encountering after discharge back to their homes. A descriptive qualitative approach was used comprising semi-structured interviews in the subjects’ homes. Audio recorded data was transcribed in extenso, and coded into themes. The data revealed that the subjects’ lacked knowledge of their disease processes. However, medication non-complianc was largely due to financial and transportation difficulties in attending clinics. Although most of the sample was able to walk, they felt the need for improved walking ability, as they were scared of falling. Most were independent in ADL, yet they, and their families perceived them to be otherwise, leaving the subjects with a sense of worthlessness. Pain in the shoulder and stiffness were the common secondary problems encountered. There is a need to educate stroke victims with regards to their disease, it’s secondary complications and their capabilities following stroke. Safe walking must be ensured before discharge.

Широко известным сценарием плавления двумерных систем является двухступенчатый процесс, состоящий из двух непрерывных переходов типа Березинского-Костерлица-Таулеса с промежуточной анизотропной жидкостью - гексатической фазой. Другим вариантом сценария является прямой переход первого рода, подобный плавлению трехмерных систем. Доказана принципиальная возможность существования третьего сценария, по которому плавление происходит посредством двух переходов, но переход из изотропной жидкости в гексатическую фазу, в отличие от предсказаний теории Березинского-Костерлица-Таулеса, является переходом первого рода. Такой сценарий обнаружен недавно при компьютерном моделировании двумерных систем, а затем и в реальном эксперименте. В основе предлагаемого доказательства лежит анализ ветвлений решений точного замкнутого нелинейного интегрального уравнения для двухчастичной условной функции распределения.
“The Master Said:”––Confucius as a Quote
Authors: Motoh Helena
Published: June 2019

The paper focuses on the phenomenon of quoting Confucius, the classical Chinese thinker of the Western Zhou Dynasty. Firstly, it approaches the core issue of quotes and historicity of the “master said” narrative which marked the tradition of quoting Confucius and understanding his heritage through the form of quotes. In the core part of the paper, a selection of ten quotes that most commonly circulate on the Internet are analysed and traced to their most probable sources, while the paper then concludes by approaching the problem of misquoting from a historical and philosophical point of view.
Time Models in Myth and Music of the 20th Century
Authors: Kozel David
Published: June 2019

The study deals with the relationship between myth and music of the 20th century. Myth is a structuring principle affecting music by remythologisation. The author analyses time models in mythological thinking in confrontation with new models of time in music. Myth and music contain a vertical and non-linear dimension with specific manifestation.
Music at Funeral Ceremonies in Today’s Slovenia
Authors: Prelovšek Anita
Published: June 2019

This doctoral dissertation provides an insight into funeral music as an ethnomusicological, anthropological, economic and cultural phenomenon, which has so far in Slovenia not attracted appropriate scholarly attention. It focuses on the role and importance of music at funerals in the context of the symbolism associated with death, departure and the concept of transience, and on the causes of different choices of music as an integral part of the leave–taking of the deceased, in conjunction with aspects of historical, social and cultural diversity.

Highly effective mode of solution to the crises in the Mannerist epoch is the solution in artistic structure. This article compares tendencies towards polycentric composition by two artists who were born in the 1560s – Claudio Monteverdi and William Shakespeare.
Variability of Slovene Musical Terminology as a Result of Intralinguistic and Extralinguistic Factors
Authors: Panić Grazio Jelena
Published: June 2019

The article presents the results of research into the influence of intralinguistic and extralinguistic factors on the phenomenon of variability in Slovene music terminology. Examples of variability in current and in older textbooks are presented. The analysis of terminology was conducted with the help of two linguistic corpora produced using the Sketch Engine tool. The corpora consisted of textbooks for tuition in music theory subjects in Slovene. We showed that terminological variation in these textbooks has existed a long time and is linked with the level of specialisation of the terms and with the process of terminologization. We have also referred to some other factors that in the past were responsible for the phenomenon of variability.

The nutritive value of 2 types of sun-dried olive cake (OC), extracted traditionally (COC) or with a 3-phase olive cake (TPOC), was studied for the growing rabbit. Four diets containing 10 or 20% of COC (COC10 and COC20) or of TPOC (TPOC10 and TPOC20) in substitution for a basal diet were compared to a control diet without OC (OC0). Five groups of 12 rabbits were fed one of the 5 diets ad libitum from weaning (35 d) to 46 d of age. The faecal digestibility was individually measured between 42 and 46 d of age. COC and TPOC are high fibre and lignin sources, with 707 and 787 g/kg dry matter (DM) of neutral detergent fibre, 530 and 554 g/kg DM of acid detergent fibre, 242 and 243 g/kg DM of acid detergent lignin, respectively. Replacing 20% of basal diet by COC sharply reduced (P<0.001) the digestibility of energy and crude protein from 0.67 to 0.54, but that of protein only moderately (from 0.80 to 0.76). The same effect was observed with the incorporation of 20% of TPOC. The digestible energy (DE) content of COC and TPOC were calculated by regression and were 3.24±0.41 and 2.94±0.52 MJ DE/kg DM respectively, corresponding to an apparent faecal digestibility of the gross energy of 0.14 (COC) and 0.13 (TPOC). The apparent faecal digestibility of the crude protein of COC was 7 units higher than TPOC (0.44 vs. 0.37) and the digestible protein (DP) content was 20% higher (27.9±4.2 g vs.22.4±6 g DP/kg DM). Olive cake could be considered as a high fibre source with a low protein and energy content for the growing rabbit.
Percursos e tendências das pesquisas sobre educação indígena na Região Sul do Brasil
Authors: Bergamaschi Maria Aparecida
Published: June 2019

Este artigo decorre de uma pesquisa que, inicialmente, subsidiou o trabalho especial apresentado na Reunião Científica Regional - X ANPEd Sul, em 2014. A partir dos registros encontrados no portal de teses da Capes (teses e dissertações defendidas) e no site do evento (trabalhos apresentados nas reuniões regionais), elaborei um levantamento minucioso das pesquisas realizadas nos últimos 15 anos (2002 a 2016), tecendo um panorama para a compreensão de possíveis significados e tendências que anunciam. A educação e a escola indígena começaram a ser tema de atenção nas pesquisas acadêmicas a partir da antropologia e, desde os anos 90 do século XX se tornam evidentes também no campo da educação. Assim como em todo o Brasil, as pesquisas realizadas na Região Sul andam pari passu com o movimento dos próprios coletivos indígenas, que implementam com maior intensidade processos de escolarização em suas terras e fora delas. Em decorrência, há um estreitamento do diálogo das universidades e das(os) pesquisadoras(es) com os povos originários da região, o incremento na produção bibliográfica, o fortalecimento do movimento político que implementa as ações afirmativas e o ingresso de estudantes indígenas nas universidades, inclusive nos programas de pós-graduação, inaugurando a autoria indígena também nas pesquisas acadêmicas.
Educação, relações etnicorraciais e decolonização na práxis de professores/as
Authors: Paim Elison Antonio , Pinheiro Patrícia Magalhães , De Paula Josiane Beloni
Published: June 2019

Este artigo traz discussões teóricas a respeito da decolonialidade, colonialidade – em sua tríade poder, ser e saber – e racismos. Enfatizaremos a decolonialidade como epistemologia que rompe dualismos, compreende intersecções entre identidades sociais e analisa classificações etnicorraciais como pedra angular da colonialidade do poder, ou seja, fundamental para estruturar o sistema-mundo moderno/colonial/capitalista. Assim, traremos narrativas de professoras, que promovem debates sobre as colonialidades e racismos presentes em nossa sociedade. O artigo resulta de teses em elaboração com foco nas relações etnicorraciais na formação de professores/as. Ressaltamos que a práxis destes processos educativos é compreendida aqui como atitude decolonial e antirracista. Neste momento, trabalhamos com narrativas de duas professoras na interface com o pensamento de autores/as decoloniais e antirracistas.
Os paradoxos da “gestão escolar" e o movimento de despolitização na escola brasileira: uma leitura aos periódicos nacionais da área de educação nos anos de 1990 a 2000
Authors: Platt Adreana Dulcina , Duarte Bruna Silva , Gamboa Sílvio Ancízar Sanches , Garcia Fernandes Frederico Augusto
Published: June 2019

Este estudo versa pela revisão bibliográfica dos artigos que tenham socializado produções acadêmicas da área da Educação, cujo núcleo conceitual tenha sido “gestão educacional”/“gestão escolar”/“gestão democrática na escola” e, enquanto método tenha por proposta de análise a abordagem materialista histórico-crítica e dialética. Partimos das categorias marxianas para refletir o paradoxo existente em qualquer modelo que sustente o discurso da administração científica para a construção de uma rotina político-pedagógica pautada na lógica revolucionária. Destacamos os indicadores filosóficos “Totalidade” e “Mais-Valor” para confrontar os estudos. Para verificar o fenômeno na produção científica em Educação, nos apoiamos na pesquisa do tipo “Estudo da Arte”, enquanto um interessante dispositivo metodológico de atualização acadêmica (revisão bibliográfica), porquanto anuncia as tendências que sustentam a evolução do pensamento científico de determinada comunidade científica acerca de um determinado objeto e/ou fenômeno social. Os artigos para a análise constam de periódicos acadêmicos nacionais disponíveis na base de dados Scielo, no período entre 1990 a 2000. Para a seleção, pautamos a descrição dos títulos “Gestão Escolar” / “Gestão Educacional” e/ou “Gestão Democrática na escola”, resultando em 22 artigos coletados e 5 artigos analisados, uma vez que cumpriam todas as variáveis assinaladas. Ao fim, consideramos a existência do paradoxo constituído pelos autores que fundamentam seus estudos no método materialista histórico-crítico e dialético, atento à natureza das categorias específicas da economia e da formação social para desvelar a realidade, porém, incorporando as categorias da Administração Científica, principalmente na argumentação “gerencialista” naturalizando-as na racionalização de uma rotina escolar de pretensão contra hegemônica.
Um percurso entre imagens e narrativas: reflexões metodológicas desde pesquisas em periferias urbanas
Authors: Pinheiro Leandro Rogério
Published: June 2019

A narrativa proposta aqui recupera experiências de interlocução em localidades socialmente vulnerabilizadas de Porto Alegre/RS, para discutir o uso de imagens em pesquisas sobre pertenças em contextos de periferia urbana. Reconhecendo o uso intensivo de apelos imagéticos na atualidade, procura-se problematizar as contribuições de dinâmicas de narrativização disparadas mediante a produção de fotografias pelos sujeitos de diálogo em campo. Neste trabalho, articulam-se outras técnicas e não se deixa de distinguir o lugar culturalmente reservado às imagens fotográficas como interveniente nas interlocuções. Para tanto, as elaborações de José de Souza Martins e Paul Ricoeur foram os principais referentes reflexivos. Procura-se, então, ponderar as resultantes das incursões desde as repercussões do efeito de verossimilhança e das deferências associadas ao fotográfico e a artefatos próximos; bem como desde o contraste de narrativas que, a diferença de narrações de intenção linear, eram instigados pelos ícones interpretados nas imagens.
Crianças belas, sadias e robustas: o futuro da raça brasileira nas políticas de proteção à infância em Santa Catarina nos idos de 1940
Authors: Batista Rosa , Passos Joana Célia , Schmidt Leonete Luzia
Published: June 2019

O presente artigo analisa a relação entre o discurso médico-higienista, a eugenia e a consolidação de um pensamento racial no atendimento à pequena infância nos anos 1940, em Santa Catarina. Práticas médico-higiênicas são organizadas e difundidas pelo Departamento de Saúde Pública do estado por meio de campanhas em prol da formação de uma raça forte e sadia. Entre elas, o Concurso Infantil de Robustez e Beleza, que premiava as mães das crianças saudáveis e eugenicamente belas. O Concurso Infantil de Robustez e Beleza foi promovido e intensamente divulgado pela imprensa da época, em particular o jornal A Gazeta, que atuava em consonância com o projeto de educação higiênica e eugênica do governo Nereu Ramos. A pesquisa apontou para a evidência de um projeto nacional que visava à regeneração das crianças, especialmente as negras e pobres. Tomamos como fontes para o levantamento de dados os jornais A Gazeta e Republica e relatórios da Legião Brasileira de Assistência, que tratam do concurso, do Centro de Puericultura, Proteção à Infância e à Maternidade, Assistência Profilática, Cozinha Dietética e Serviço de Higiene da capital.
O lugar do racismo e da discriminação racial nas memórias da afro-educação
Authors: Mena Garcia Maria Isabel
Published: June 2019

O artigo apresenta os resultados de uma pesquisa realizada com professores de instituições educacionais em Bogotá, com a qual se pretendeu medir algumas percepções sobre racismo e discriminação racial e sua incidência no desenvolvimento e implementação da Cátedra de Estudos Afro-Colombianos (CEA). O estudo deixa claro que a Cátedra não tem lugar dentro do Projeto Educacional Institucional em seus componentes pedagógicos, administrativos e de desenvolvimento comunitário, apesar de 18 anos desde a sua regulamentação na Colômbia.
