Published: January 2024

У статті обґрунтовано необхідність реформування податкової системи України під час воєнного стану з метою забезпечення економічного розвитку; проаналізовано причини, за яких знижується ВВП країни і скорочується стягнення прямих та непрямих податків у воєнний час. Виявлено негативні тенденції соціально-економічного розвитку України у 2022 році; доведено, що має місце скорочення споживчого попиту домогосподарств у 2022 році. Зроблено висновок про необхідність бюджетного фінансування економічного розвитку країни під час воєнного стану. Доведено необхідність посилення фіскальної функції податків з метою збільшення надходжень до державного бюджету, перш за все, за рахунок ПДВ та акцизного податку, які мають найбільшу податкову ефективність. Доведено, що не міжнародні вливання, а лише надходження з національних джерел дозволяють забезпечувати економічне зростання національного господарства. Запропоновано збільшити ставку ПДВ на 1,5%, розроблено новий підхід до оподаткування акцизним податком, прогресивну шкалу оподаткування для заможних українців, запропоновано корегування податку на приріст капіталу та впровадження податку на доходи фрилансерів з відповідними ставками. З метою підвищення ролі і статусу прямих податків пропонується порівнювати доходи, що оподатковуються, не з мінімальною, а з середньомісячною заробітною платою.
МОДЕЛЬ ЕКОНОМІЧНОЇ САМООРГАНІЗАЦІЇ НА ПРИКЛАДІ РОЗПОДІЛУ БАНКІВСЬКИХ АКТИВІВ
Authors: ВАСИЛЬЄВ Олексій Миколайович
Published: January 2024

Стаття присвячена застосуванню методів теорії самоорганізації (синергетики) для аналізу складних економічних і фінансових систем. А саме, в статті пропонується синергетична модель для пояснення рангового розподілу активів банків в Україні в довоєнний період. Для формування рангового розподілу банки впорядковуються відповідно до наявних власних активів (на відповідний момент часу). Рангу один відповідає банк з найбільшими активами, рангу два відповідає банк з другими за розміром активами і так далі. На основі отриманого розподілу визначається функціональна залежність активів банку від рангу. Зокрема, пропонується феноменологічна модель, котра базується на диференціальному рівнянні й пов’язує зміну активів банку зі зміною рангу. На основі моделі встановлюється загальний вигляд для апроксимуючої функції. Ця функція описує залежність активів банку від рангу й містить низку параметрів, які визначаються на основі статистичних даних.У статті, для банківської системи України щодо декількох передвоєнних років, побудовано ранговий розподіл активів банків. Запропоновано функціональну залежність величини активів від рангу та розраховано феноменологічні параметри, які входять в апроксимуючу функцію. Показано, що для банківської системи України в довоєнний період справедливим є твердження про те, що ранговий розподіл активів банків у різні роки описується однією й тією самою функцією (і вигляд цієї функції встановлено). Змінюються лише параметри, які входять у функцію. Важливою в цьому випадку є обставина, пов’язана з тим, що позиції окремих банків у ранговому розподілі та їх активи змінюються, у той час як характер розподілу незмінний.

Exploring The Complexities of “Alien Suffrage” in American Political History
Authors: Hayduk Ron , Garcia-Castañon Marcela , Bhaumik Vedika
Published: January 2024

Although historians and political scientists have long acknowledged the significant place of immigrants in American political history, the role of “alien suffrage” has not been well appreciated, and gaps remain in the scholarship about the nature of its practice. How extensively was “alien voting” practiced and what were its effects? This study addresses these questions by examining eleven of the forty states that allowed non-citizens to vote before obtaining citizenship. These states, located in the Midwest, South and West, were selected because immigrants comprised a significant proportion of their total population and allowed alien suffrage for an extended period of time (1848–1920). We develop estimates of non-citizen voters and examine ethnic voting patterns in these states to gauge their impacts on partisan dynamics in gubernatorial elections. Our findings show non-citizens voted and factored into election outcomes, furthering the incorporation of European immigrants. We also shed light on the unsavory side of alien suffrage, which contributed to a form of settler colonialism and functioned to block or delay the enfranchisement of African Americans and women. We conclude with a discussion of the implications of these findings for our understanding of immigrant political incorporation in American political history, as well as for contemporary debates about the revival of the legal practice of non-citizen voting in the United States.

Published: January 2024

Bacterial meningitis is a condition caused by a bacterial infection in the meninges that results in inflammation. The causative agent varies according to age and other related factors. Hemophilus Influenza type B (Hib) is the most common cause of meningitis in children. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of H. influenza meningitis, the role of vaccination, and demographic factors in the etiology of Hib meningitis. Using a cross-sectional design, the study was conducted at the Pediatrics department of Ayub Teaching Hospital, Abbottabad, for six months, from 19-9-2023 to 19-3-2024. After obtaining ethical approval from the IRB of Ayub Teaching Hospital Abbottabad, a cross-sectional study was conducted, and 143 patients who met the inclusion criteria were included in the study. Hib vaccination status was confirmed by history and the presence of a vaccination card. Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) was collected and sent for analysis, including microscopy and culture. The mean age of the patients was 44.92±51.48 months, with a male-to-female ratio of 1.38:1. Seventy (49.65%) patients were fully vaccinated against the Hib virus. The study results showed that H. influenza growth on CSF culture was noted in 14 (9.79%) patients. The Hib positive status of these cases was significantly associated with gender, residential area, and socioeconomic class of the patient at p values of 0.005, 0.047, and 0.041. In conclusion, despite the use of conjugate vaccine, Hib remains a cause of meningitis, and the pathogenesis of Hib meningitis is associated with gender, residential category, and socioeconomic class of the patient.
Investigation of X-ray radiation response to electrical properties of Mo/Cu(In0.7Ga0.3)Te2/p-Si/Al semiconductor diode

Published: January 2024

Diodes are exposed to radiation in many operating environments, and it is important to investigate the radiation effect. In this study, the impact of X-ray radiation on the electrical properties of Mo/Cu(In0.7Ga0.3)Te2/p-Si/Al semiconductor diode was explored by I-V measurements performed before and after radiation doses between 200 and 1000 centiGray. The semiconductor diode was exposed to radiation by a linear accelerator having 6 MV X-ray. I-V measurements and the Cheung-Cheung method demonstrated the differences in series resistance, ideality factor, and barrier height. Moreover, the interface state density was obtained from I-V results. The radiation dose increased the ideality factor and decreased the barrier height. This result was thought to be due to the increase in the interface state density and the defects in the diode interface. The series resistance was increased by increasing the radiation dose due to a possible decrease in mobility and free carrier concentration. As a result of exposure to X-ray, defects occurred and due to these defects, the diode deviated from the ideal. It has been observed that the electrical properties of the diode were sensitive to X-ray radiation. The study demonstrated that the Mo/Cu(In0.7Ga0.3)Te2/p-Si/Al semiconductor diode can be implemented in X-ray radiation detection systems.

7,7-Dichlorobicyclo [3.2.0]heptan-6-one was prepared by adding dichloroketene to cyclopentene. Reduction of 7,7-dichlorobicyclo[3.2.0]heptan-6-one with Zn in acetic acid afforded the bicyclo[3.2.0]heptan-6-one. (E)-7-Arylidene-5-(hydroxy(aryl)methyl)bicyclo [3.2.0]heptan-6-ones were synthesized by addition of related benzaldehydes to bicyclo[3.2.0]heptan-6-one. The anti-proliferative activities of synthesized compounds were elucidated against rat brain tumor (C6) and human cervical carcinoma cells (HeLa) cell lines. The most active compound was chloro derivative against C6 cell lines with IC50 = 2.45 μM value (5-FU, IC50 = 14.82 μM). Moreover, the most active compound was methyl derivative against HeLa cell lines with IC50 = 26.30 μM (5-FU, IC50 = 29.30 μM).
Transnational Remittance Practices Among Latinos: Analyzing Differences Based on Nativity, Generational Status, and Social Capital
Authors: Chun Sung David
Published: January 2024

Using data from the Chicago Area Survey (CAS), our study explores the impact of individual characteristics and factors linked to assimilation and ethnic attachment on the financial behaviors of Latinos in the United States. We particularly examine generational variations in the amount and determinants of remittance behavior among Latinos in the Chicago Metropolitan area. Our findings reveal distinct generational patterns in remittance practices as a transnational activity. While second-generation Latinos engage in remittance activities comparably to their foreign-born parents, a significant decrease is observed in third and subsequent generations. Interestingly, remittance behavior appears to be inversely related to traditional assimilation measures. Contradicting straightforward assimilation theories and aligning more with a transnational viewpoint, our multivariate models suggest a positive correlation between remittance activities and various integration indicators for both foreign-born and U.S.-born Latinos in the Chicago area. While a generational decline in remittance behavior supports assimilation theory, the positive ties between socioeconomic status or assimilation indicators and remittance activities prompt a reevaluation of the assimilation model's dominance. Our results suggest a complex interplay between assimilation processes and remittance behavior, indicating that the latter doesn't necessarily decrease as the former progresses. This calls for more research into the intricate relationship between these two dynamics.

Authors: Manzo Marc A. , Lex Johnathan R. , Rodriguez-Elizalde Sebastian Rahul , Perlus Ryan , Cayen Barry , Chang Justin S.
Published: January 2024

Background:

Utilization of the direct anterior approach (DAA) for total hip arthroplasty (THA) has risen in popularity. Accurate implant placement is a critical factor that influences patient outcomes. The goal of this study was to compare the accuracy and precision of fluoroscopy with imageless optical navigation in DAA THA.

Methods:

This was a cohort study of 640 consecutive primary DAA THAs performed with intraoperative fluoroscopy (n = 300 patients) or imageless optical navigation (n = 304 patients). Accuracy was compared by measuring acetabular cup inclination, anteversion, and leg-length discrepancy (LLD). The proportion of implants placed within the Lewinnek safe zone and those placed within a more precise target of 40 ± 5° inclination and 20 ± 5° anteversion was evaluated.

Results:

According to the Lewinnek criteria, there was no difference in the percentage of implants placed within both inclination and anteversion targets (fluoroscopy: 90.3%; navigation: 88.8%, P = 0.519). Using the more precise targets, navigation increased the implants positioned correctly for both inclination and anteversion (fluoroscopy: 50.3%; navigation: 65.6%, P < 0.001). Navigation increased the proportion of implants positioned within the target anteversion zone (fluoroscopy: 71.3%; navigation: 83.8%, P < 0.001) but not inclination (fluoroscopy: 71.9%; navigation: 76.9%, P = 0.147). The mean LLD was higher with the use of fluoroscopy compared with navigation (5.5 mm, standard deviation: 4.1; 4.6 mm, SD: 3.4, P < 0.005). No difference in dislocation rate was observed (P = 0.643).

Conclusion:

Both fluoroscopy and imageless optical navigation demonstrated accurate acetabular implant positioning during DAA THA. Navigation was more precise and associated with improved acetabular anteversion placement and restoration of LLD. Navigation is an accurate alternative to fluoroscopy with decreased radiation exposure.

Authors: BIÇAKÇI Nurcan , BIÇAKÇI Sercan
Published: January 2024

Purpose: The aim of this study is to determine the chemical, biological, radiation, and nuclear (CBRN) emergency preparedness levels of emergency department (ED) personnel.
Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional descriptive survey study was conducted with 49 emergency department personnel (emergency medicine specialists, emergency medicine research assistants, nurses, and nursing staffs) working in the ED of a university hospital through face-to-face. The questionnaire was created by the researchers and consisted of 5 demographic and 30 CBRN preparation information, 12 questions questioning the previous practice and educational status of CBRN subjects. The preparedness level of the participants was determined by evaluating the CBRN preparedness level responses.
Results: The Cronbach's Alpha reliability index obtained for the CBRN scale was obtained as α=0,856 for the whole scale and this value shows that the reliability of the whole scale is at a good level. The mean preparedness level score of the ED personnel is 59,7 (min-max:24-81). The mean CBRN preparedness level score of emergency medicine specialists (38) was found to be lower than the other groups. The number of those who received training on CBRN situations and medical management of cases during their professional training (bachelor-master- doctorate education) is 18 (36,7%). Most of the participants didn’t participate in any CBRN exercise during their professional life (n=43, 87,8%).
Conclusion: ED personnel's preparations for CBRN emergencies are insufficient. Their participation in training and exercises for the medical management of CBRN cases is low. Our study can be used as a tool to determine the CBRN preparations of ED personnel.

Published: January 2024

The University of Guyana, which is a higher institution for learning utilizes the traditional physical environment for the delivery of education, although they had made a few strides towards the OLE and blended modes. The abrupt shift to OLE at UG began around the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. While online platforms like Moodle and Examsoft were already in use at UG, it was not entirely utilized and, in most cases, optional. The pandemic forced the administrative body at UG to apply several measures to facilitate OLE for learning and education to continue. This study examines lecturers’ attitudes toward OLE at UG. A cross-sectional quantitative study was employed. Lecturers were conveniently sampled and their ideas, notions, and thoughts related to OLE were explored. Two tools were developed, using a four-point Likert scale to determine lecturers’ attitudes towards OLE. Our study showed that most lecturers at UG have a positive attitude towards OLE. However, factors such as lack of ICT infrastructure, inadequate ICT training, difficulty in preparing examinations on Moodle, and issues in maintaining the integrity of exams precipitated their resistance to OLE. We recommended more stringent professional development and face-to-face proctoring for assessments conducted on Moodle.

The development of a region is essentially inseparable from investment. Investment in general can help a region to encourage the economic growth needed to process the economic potential in the region. Until 2021, EoDB indicators need to be improved in supporting the investment climate. Until now, the EoDB is still considered a valuable reference for countries that want to measure the level of risk and cost of doing business. Provinsi DKI Jakarta in its current condition seeks to increase its investment amid the issue of moving the national capital. This research focuses on looking at the relationship between EoDB and investment interest in addition to other economic factors. The analysis method used in this study is to use PLS-SEM on a research sample of 150 entrepreneurs with medium and large business categories. This study proves empirically that the Ease of Doing Business Indicator in Provinsi DKI Jakarta has a significant influence on investment interest in Provinsi DKI Jakarta in addition to the Economic Factors used in the simultaneous equation model. In the Ease of Doing Business variable (X1), all indicators can significantly explain the Ease of Doing Business Indicator. A one unit increase in the ease of doing business indicator will potentially increase investment interest by 74.6% in Provinsi DKI Jakarta, ceteris paribus. The five indicators that explain the Ease of Doing Business Variable the most and their coefficients include Getting Electricity (0.806), Trading Across Border (0.761), Protecting Minority Investors (0.743), Getting Credit (0.728), and Registering Property (0.724).

O objetivo deste trabalho é analisar o período referente a colonização do Império Britânico no território indiano, assim como as transformações ocorridas nesse espaço de tempo, e investigar se as taxas excessivas de pobreza e desigualdade do país asiático podem ser vistas como um dos resultados do período colonial. A abordagem teórica utilizada na construção do trabalho é o pós-colonialismo, uma vez que é uma abordagem de suma importância para a compreensão das sociedades atuais e as consequências do processo de colonização. A problemática apresentada é: A pobreza e a desigualdade social presente na Índia são resultados da colonização britânica? Os resultados da pesquisa apontaram que a colonização britânica realmente agravou o cenário de pobreza e desigualdade social na Índia, existindo resquícios até os dias atuais, no entanto, também são apresentados outros fatores que integram essa conjuntura, como a atuação dos governos pós-independência, o sistema de casta e a falta de políticas direcionadas.

Published: January 2024

A literatura sugere estudos sobre eficácia dos gastos orçamentários em governos centrais e locais. Diante dessa indigência, este estudo objetiva identificar indicadores de desempenho (IDs) usados no planejamento de governos estaduais (PPAs) correspondente a educação, apresentar proposta de IDs para avaliar a eficácia dos gastos na educação e legitimá-los nos TCEs. Assim, aplicou-se técnicas estatísticas DEA em dois estágios e estimação de modelos longitudinais lineares de regressão para dados em painel sobre os gastos realizados no período 2015 a 2019, checklist, escala likert e questionário semiaberto (google forms). Os resultados indicam ausência de IDs na elaboração e execução dos PPAs, há pouca ou nenhuma atenção nos registros realizados sobre as ações previstas e inercia das câmaras legislativas a respeito. Os IDs propostos alcançaram 72% de eficácia estatística, e nenhum ente alcançou 100% de eficácia nos gastos, assim como 30% apresentaram eficiência nos gastos e só 13% desses apresentaram eficácia em 75%. Por fim, 73% dos TCEs legitimaram os IDs sugeridos quanto a sua contribuição na avaliação da eficácia dos gastos com a educação, e esses IDs são capazes de identificar quais ações necessitam de intervenções para alinhamento com o planejamento
O fantástico moderno nas obras de Franz Kafka e Murilo Rubião
Authors: Cavalcante do Amaral Juliana , García Flavio
Published: January 2024

Na visão de Tzvetan Todorov (2017), o fantástico tradicional ou clássico, caracterizado pela hesitação – sentida por uma personagem, que cumpra, especialmente, a função de narrador; comunicada ao narratário, ser de papel; transmitida, finalmente, ao leitor, ser de carne e osso –, teria surgido na viragem do século XVIII para o XIX e chegado ao fim na viragem do XIX para o XX. Todorov é considerado o teórico basilar da perspectiva genológica do fantástico em distinção às perspectivas modal e categorial, por exemplo. Por considerar que as narrativas de Franz Kafka não produzem hesitação e que a Psicanálise teria fragilizado o fantástico, ele defende que, a partir do início do século XX, ter-se-ia inaugurado outro fantástico, fundado pela publicação de A metamorfose, de Kafka. O objetivo deste artigo é discutir as particularidades desse fantástico inaugurado por Kafka e demonstrar proximidades entre sua obra e a de Murilo Rubião, valendo de uma leitura comparativa de A metamorfose com “Bárbara”, de Rubião. Há muitas similaridades entre essas duas narrativas, o que permite a reunião do escritor tcheco e do brasileiro na seara do fantástico moderno ou contemporâneo.
Abrasileirando o mito:
Authors: Brauner Débora Caroline
Published: January 2024

O presente artigo objetiva analisar como o mito do vampiro se manifesta em Os Sete (2000), de André Vianco, que apesar do pano de fundo da modernidade porta em seu cerne diversas características do que poderíamos chamar de vampiro clássico em uma miscelânea que mistura o sobrenatural e o fantástico com a atmosfera de um Brasil ficcional de 1999. Para tanto será necessária uma breve introdução à literatura fantástica, gênero do qual o vampiro emana, a partir de teóricos como Todorov (2007), Roas (2014) e Campra (2017), além de estudiosos do mito do vampiro literário, como Lecoutex (2005), Carvalho (2010) e Menon (2011), leituras que permitirão uma melhor compreensão sobre as características do mito do vampiro e como elas se manifestam na obra de Vianco.
A construção temporal da não-pertença em Os meus sentimentos, de Dulce Maria Cardo
Authors: Borborema Bozzo Gabriela Cristina
Published: January 2024

O sentimento de não-pertença constitui o tema do presente estudo, no qual infere-se que ela seja, também, o tema central do romance que constitui o nosso corpus, Os meus sentimentos, de Dulce Maria Cardoso. O romance português contemporâneo apresenta, de forma inusitada, a história de Violeta, uma mulher obesa rejeitada pela mãe que vive na tentativa de corrigir o passado. Assim, busca-se definir a não pertença, discursar sobre o tempo na narrativa e, por fim, identificar como a não-pertença é construída no romance, como tema principal, pela categoria narrativa tempo. Assim, embasa-se nas teorias de Axel Honneth, George H. Mead, Gérard Genette, Roland Bourneuf, e Réal Ouellet, Benedito Nunes, Nefatalin Gonçalves Neto e Angela Gama. Conclui-se, portanto, que a instância temporal corrobora a construção do sentimento de não-pertença como tema principal no romance Os meus sentimentos, de Dulce Maria Cardoso.
As formações imaginárias sobre a concordância nominal de número não padrão em Bacabal-MA
Authors: Lopes João Vitor Cunha
Published: January 2024

Com o intuito de ampliar os estudos sobre o fenômeno de concordância nominal no português brasileiro, fundamentando-se nos pressupostos da Análise do Discurso francesa (PÊCHEUX, 1997 [1969]), a partir das noções de formações imaginárias, este artigo apresenta uma análise de dois discursos produzidos acerca da concordância não padrão em sequências discursivas extraídas de uma amostra de fala da cidade de Bacabal – MA. O objetivo central deste estudo é evidenciar quais as formações imaginárias presentes nos discursos metalinguísticos de bacabalenses sobre a concordância nominal de número não padrão. As análises discursivas explicitaram um jogo de imagens em torno do fenômeno abordado. Dos discursos analisados, sobressai-se a defesa de uma homogeneidade linguística. Isso decorre da não aceitação da concordância não padrão, considerada, por sua vez, um “erro” ou um “vício de linguagem”.
A Produção do sujeito-odioso a partir da publicidade do novo polo:
Authors: Reis Vicente Eliézer , Almeida de Melo Ricardo
Published: January 2024

Esse artigo objetiva analisar o discurso de ódio homofóbico como limitador do exercício da sexualidade, como manifestação de intolerância, preconceito e discriminação que se reveste de um abuso do direito à liberdade de expressão. As análises tomam twittes e memes veiculados em torno da publicidade do carro da marca Volkswagen, o novo Polo, e problematizam, a partir dos estudos teóricos do filósofo francês Michel Foucault, questões acerca do dispositivo da sexualidade, dispositivo da violência, dispositivo de ódio biopolítico, poder e masculinidade(s). Os resultados apontam que os discursos atuam como um instrumento de exteriorização da homofobia na fabricação de um sujeito-odioso.
Implicações sociodiscursivas sobre as tensões raciais no Brasil:
Authors: Mara Costa de Paula Willyane
Published: January 2024

Este artigo aborda como a relação entre língua, discurso e sociedade, em um processo sociointeracionista, sofrem com as prerrogativas ideológicas e históricas do contexto societário à quais estão inseridas. Utiliza os Estudos Críticos do Discurso (ECD) como método e teoria, que busca compreender como as produções sociodiscursivas servem para articular as relações raciais. Destaca que as produções comunicacionais refletem as nuances, costumes, mitos, crenças, aparelhamentos ideológicos, etc. de uma comunidade, de modo que é utópico acreditar que exista uma linguagem neutra ou imparcial. Nesse sentido, os estudos críticos do discurso são essenciais para revelar as condições de produção que caracterizam o discurso e evidenciar seu caráter ideológico. Também enfatiza que no contexto brasileiro, as práticas sociais estão estruturadas dentro de uma ideologia colonial, racista e segregadora, que interferem nos meios de produção de matérias e de discursos que propagam um racismo discursivo, que contribui para a manutenção das relações de poder. Se chega à conclusão de que há um embate de forças entre os privilegiados, que lutam para manter-se no poder, e os usurpados de direitos, que lutam para alcançá-los  e os ECD funcionam como estratégias sociodiscursivas que questionam a estrutura, para modificar a ordem social vigente.
A variação linguística no contexto escolar de língua portuguesa na cidade de Cáceres-MT
Authors: Oliveira Adami Yara Fernanda de
Published: January 2024

Nesta pesquisa analisamos os usos sociolinguísticos de cinco professores de língua portuguesa, nascidos em Cáceres - Mato Grosso, atuantes em cinco instituições de ensino básico, contemplando as séries do ensino fundamental II. A análise do estudo foi amparada pela teoria Variacionista de caráter qualitativo, postulados discutidos por William Labov (1969, 1972) a partir da década de 1960. Nesse sentido, a pesquisa fundamenta-se também em José Lemos Monteiro (2000); Ana Maria Zilles e Carlos Alberto Faraco (2017). Tais autores discutem normas abordando os acontecimentos variáveis a respeito da pesquisa em campo, a fim de entendermos qual diferencial faz o extralinguístico exercer um papel autônomo na fala do docente de língua portuguesa nascido em Cáceres, considerando a busca das variáveis decorrentes na sala de aula, no caso, o vernáculo do professor em contrapartida a gramática normativa. A diversidade está presente quando pensamos na linguagem de um falante (no caso a pessoa nascida em Cáceres), e da sua profissão (o professor de língua portuguesa). Postos em análise direta, percebemos que os docentes colaboradores da pesquisa utilizam o sistema cacerense em sala de aula, nos levando ao entendimento da recorrência das variações fonéticas e fonológicas encontradas nas transcrições das gravações.
Oficinas literárias temáticas:
Authors: Pedro Sacomori Candido
Published: January 2024

No presente artigo busca-se evidenciar como o ensino da literatura, no Ensino Fundamental, pode ser abordado desde uma perspectiva crítica, ampliando as leituras comuns e correntes com produções mais contemporâneas de cunho híbrido, crítico e descolonizador. Essas obras da literatura para jovens leitores, que são denominadas narrativas híbridas de história e ficção, aproximam-se do romance histórico contemporâneo de mediação (FLECK, 2017), o qual tem como premissa recontar a história a partir de visões periféricas. Nesse intuito, apresenta-se uma análise da obra Os estrangeiros (2012), de Marconi Leal, a fim de demonstrar que ela contempla as características comuns dessa modalidade do romance híbrido que, por apresentar os fatos históricos a partir da voz de personagens relegadas à margem do discurso historiográfico tradicional, contribui com outros saberes e com novos olhares para o nosso passado colonial. Também, com base na interdisciplinaridade (MENDOZA FILLOLA, 1994), sugere-se uma proposta didática de “Oficina Literária Temática”, na qual se utiliza a narrativa de Leal (2012), em diálogo com outras textualidades que versam sobre a temática da colonização, com ênfase na atuação dos padres Jesuítas. Conclui-se, a partir deste estudo, que o trabalho interdisciplinar – em especial nos possíveis diálogos entre história e literatura, contribui para a formação de leitores literários mais bem instruídos a respeito do seu passado de subjugação aos europeus e da manipulação da linguagem, enquanto instrumento ideológico de dominação.
