João Pessoa's Concrete on the networks of Porto do Capim: territorial conflicts, domestic groups and community organization
-
Date: Dec 20, 2022
-
Time: 14:30
-
Show Summary
-
The riverside community of Porto do Capim, in João Pessoa, Paraíba, has a wealthy
trajectory of formation and defense of its own territory, especially against the João
Pessoa City Hall. Taking shape from the 1930s/40s, the community receives different
flows of people and over time understands such diversity as a constituent part of its
identity from the relationship with the tide (ASSAD, 2017). From these questions, the
present work proposes to bring some reflections on the formation of the riverside
identity among the residents of Porto, constituted from the daily relationship between
the domestic groups and the groups with the environment. For this, we consider the
concept of dominialization (BARBOSA DA SILVA & MURA, 2018). From this flow
of people, ideas and materials, we want to bring light to some dynamics that guide the
formation of this identity and the relationship between it and the struggle for the
permanence of the community in its territory . This is because the community is
currently in the process of dispute with the João Pessoa City Hall, which plans to
remove the community for the construction of tourist facilities.

Show Summary

This study is the product of a PhD research developed through a collaboration agreement for thesis cotutela (co-supervision) between the Autonomous University of Madrid (Spain) and the Federal University of Paraíba (Brazil). The purpose of this study was to immerse in the routine of the governance institutions having as an investigative field the direct and contracted management of public health units in a federal state in Brazil where the actions of public agents - intertwined in the dynamics of power built and maintained by governmental and political elites - were problematized. They were analyzed in the light of patrimonialism, the theory of gift, the theorization about the politics time and the politics that penetrates the time of governing. The investigation field had as methodological perspective the participative observation during the period of two years of the daily environment of the management of the HGD Hospital and the follow-up and inspection of contracts sector of DAFH management, which required a look directed to the normative approach that endows the administrative routine of formal rules, and another look directed to informal and/or parallel conducts (informed by the politics) that cross the governmental routine imposing its rules. This double view was a necessary condition to learn how governmental power works from within the movement of its elites. The results of the study show the plots that lead to the appropriation of the public sector for private purposes and the conclusive analyses affirm that patrimonialism (as a practice of power) is still present in the way of governing institutions and conducting politics in Brazil.

SHARED MATERNITY AND CHILDREN IN CARRIAGE: ETHNOGRAPHING SUNDAY'S DAY IN A WOMEN'S PRISON

Time: 15:00

Show Summary
-
The present work, extracted from the ethnographic research carried out in in a female prison located in a large northeastern city, in a research with children and on maternity, aims to observe the social interaction between the children and their imprisoned mothers, but also with the other social actors that they met in that prison unit on the family's visiting day, Sunday. The anthropological research was carried out with women who are serving time or awaiting trial in a closed regime. Therefore, the presence of children and their families is intertwined with the type of women's prison regime. The work discussed the perceived gifts, the feelings extracted from the prison, bodies that speak, that are silent, but that communicate. The methodological resources used in the research were direct observation, informal conversations, drawing, field notebook and memorization. Children, who emerge from research, emerge as social actors. In the field, forms of conception of the prison were revealed, such as: the one elaborated by the institution, the one invented by the children's families, above all, by the maternal grandmothers for the young children, but also, I presented the perception of the big children. I observed some signs of resistance in the prison, a way of reinventing family life, such as sheets that lined the floor of the visiting area. In them, aspects of home, sacredness, territoriality were observed, which re-signified that hostile space. I presented the magazine of children's bodies, the punishments of mothers who reflect on children for being without the right to visit. Emerged from the research, shared motherhood, matrifocality, the form of care for the new generations of that group. Finally, Sunday is the day of a great meeting, a way of resisting the mortification of the self caused by the prison system, a day of celebration, a day of family fraternization, it is a day of the family, it is a way for those couples to re-socialize, unconsciously if they reinvent themselves despite the obliteration of their identities, especially that of the mother. Prison chaos erupted, doing nothing as ways of intensifying the reprimand. The great meeting carried out during the visit was observed as the great and only form of resocialization of the sentence found in that prison, carried out by those displaced families who, unconsciously, humanize the sentence, evoking the state's duty of resocialization.

The Warao and Interculturality: Proposals for a migrant indigenous school education from ACP/Roraima
-
Date: Sep 30, 2022

Time: 09:30

Show Summary
-
Since 2014, Brazil has experienced the arrival of Venezuelan indigenous groups. The
flow begins to intensify in 2016 and the largest number corresponds to indigenous
people of the Warao ethnic group, coming from the Orinoco river delta, northeast region
of Venezuela. The border through which they enter the country is located in the
municipality of Pacaraima/RR. Upon arriving in Brazil, part of these groups move to
other regions of the country, but the state of Roraima continues to have a strong
presence of indigenous Venezuelans, either from new groups that arrive or from groups
that remain in the state since their arrival. The permanence of these groups arouses
several discussions and the number of children and adolescents of compulsory school
age who were not being attended led to the filing of a Public Civil Action (ACP) in
2018, brought by the Federal Public Ministry, whose defendants are the Federal
Government, Funai, the State of Roraima and the municipalities of Boa Vista/RR and
Pacaraima/RR. The objective is to make the defendants adopt the necessary measures
for the provision of school education to the Venezuelan indigenous peoples residing in
Roraima. In this dissertation, I seek to understand how school attendance for indigenous
Venezuelans is thought, from the positions of the social actors involved, through the
analysis of the set of documents that make up the ACP-Warao/RR.

The present ethnographic study was developed with the collective Slam Dandaras do Norte, provoked by the approach to the poetic and political work of the organizers of the slam, which is located in the city of Belém-PA. This study aims to present through spoken poetry, which is present in the slam universe, how women's experiences appear in the Dandaras do Norte slam created by women and for women. Thus, the ethnography developed seeks to: a) present the path, approach and insertion into the group as a researcher and member; b) analyze through the poetry of Dandaras their life experiences, which are the most varied, taking into account the intersectionalities and c) point out the Dandaras do Norte slam as a marker of the Dandaras protagonism and in defense of mostly excluded groups. This research is justified due to the dimension of the poetry battles that are circumscribed in several Brazilian cities, but, above all, by the character of the poems produced, from the self-affirmation of life experiences. This study was carried out between March and December 2021, through virtual means due to the pandemic and through face-to-face meetings with the resumption of some presentations by the collective.

The present work aims to understand the use of social media as a possibility of building networks to support the exercise of motherhood of autistic children and autistic mothers. I also seek to understand the construction of support networks for the exercise of breastfeeding of autistic children, the understanding of relationships, tensions related to motherhood and autism. This is a study with ethnographic framework, whose methodological choice was directed due to the social isolation caused by the covid-19 pandemic. This work consists of a qualitative analysis performed from a universe of 10 participating women, among these, 6 are also autistic. The work, an ethnography for internet, was consolidated based on participant observation through social media, especially Instagram, but also on Youtube, Podcasts and other digital platforms, open conversations carried out through Instagram's own chat tools and interactions also by WhatsApp and Email, in addition to the use of field notebooks. The study was supported by discussions about disability studies, as well as on theories of care, studies on motherhood and also on autism, some aspects wrapped up in feminism, support networks and the use of social media. When inquiring about the construction of support networks circumscribed to digital, but with the possibility of extrapolating the online, maternity was found as a vector of composition of forces in the face of the difficulties faced by mothers and children, in addition to conflicts amid the social and political misaffairs around autism. Motherhood appeared as a place of solitude, but also as a political place, of representativeness, of resistance to unite subjectivities and foster the feeling of belonging.

The Warao migration flow to Brazil revealed the presence of the group in
João Pessoa/PB at the end of 2019. Directed in the search for a way to survive and
continue with their existences, they meet with the State that will trace their destinies and
routes towards the implementation of their social rights. In this path, I analyze social
constructions coming from discourses of the media, civil society, and public agents
about this population and the way these will reflect in the implementation of public
policies thought to the specificities of what I analyze under the idea of a "social
problem". The investigation goes through the understanding of the concept of the State
that relates to them, the identity of the public agents involved, and the mechanisms and
technologies of government used in the management of this population. The history of
the group is revealed from the point of view of the logic of the expulsions, which, due to
the continuity of the evictions even in the Brazilian context, will promote the crossing
of other borders. The Warao temporality will show conflicts with public agents who
base their actions on the need to guarantee their human rights, but who secure their
borders against possible threats. To obtain the data that I present in this research, I
proceeded with the analysis of documents contained in judicial and administrative
proceedings and public civil inquiries, interviews, reports, participant observation in
shelters, extension projects and meetings with public agents involved in the solution of
the demands in João Pessoa-PB.

This research aims to understand the relationships of sociability that young students establish during the experience of collective housing in a student residence maintained by a Federal Institute in a city in the countryside of Piauí. I try to understand their trajectories of arrival at the student residence and their motivations for this choice beyond economic issues as well. In the face of the impossibility of a physical field, since with the pandemic, the residence-school was closed, contact with interlocutors was brokered by digital communication and information technologies -TIC'S, and three physical meetings, making me reflect on the limits and reaches of ethnography in pandemic times. Ten students of both genders attended this research, among residents and ex-residents, as well as three professionals from the institution who work directly in the management and organization of student housing. The data obtained during the research indicated the process of consolidating student assistance on campus and the strategies of coexistence and overcoming difficulties of students during their stays in the student residence. I verified in the speeches of my interlocutors the existence recognition importance of a student residence as an action that guarantees their access and permanence to integrated high school and higher education, offered by the Federal Institute of Education Science and Technology of Piauí - IFPI, Uruçuí Campus, in addition to the resignification of space and relationships that are established by them in the place.

This work addresses the conditions established for domestic workers in the period of the Covid-19 pandemic, in the city of São Luís do Maranhão (Brazil), counting from the declaration, in Brazil, in March 2020, of the health emergency situation, until July 2022. From the perspective of health anthropology and the theoretical contribution of black and decolonial feminist thought, this research addresses how the experiences of this historically vulnerable professional category have been given in the context of living with a contagious and evolving disease uncertain, which has caused numerous impacts on the health and organization of people's daily lives, although in a different way and equally different intensities, considering the temporality of the pandemic with its curves of deaths and new infections. The Union of Domestic Workers of Maranhão (Sindoméstico-MA) was the gateway to make contact with women domestic workers and one of the privileged fields of observation. The methodology included visits to the union, participation in activities and semi-structured interviews carried out with women who currently guide this space and non-unionized workers, but who use the services offered by the union. Round tables, campaigns and meetings were also followed through the social networks of organizations of domestic workers in Brazil and abroad. The claim for the guarantee of labor rights arose evidently in the countryside. As a result, in the pandemic context, the lack of access to social security - a set of public policies initiated by the Public Powers, which has the duty to ensure access to rights related to health, social security and social assistance - is observed in a more accentuated way. , which calls our attention to think about the precariousness of working conditions established for domestic workers in the current scenario. The research also made it possible to access the memory about the trajectories, experiences and narratives of the lives of domestic workers in São Luís do Maranhão.

The present dissertation aims to investigate the forms of sociability that children and adolescents in institutional foster care build within this context in times of the Covid-19 pandemic in a host institution in the state of Paraíba. While social isolation is something that was new to us in times of pandemic, for children and adolescents who live in an institutional shelter this is not new, since despite what is provided for by law for the promotion of the right family and community coexistence, the truth is that children and adolescents, despite being inserted in the city, are isolated from it. Since their departures from the institution are always limited and accompanied by an employee of the institution, thus making these subjects in times of a pandemic live what I call "double isolation". The ethnographic research carried out in a Casa de Acolhimento in the Metropolitan Region of João Pessoa, in Paraíba, had 15 children and adolescents as main interlocutors and was carried out throughout the year 2021.

TITLE: ANTI-GENDER OFFENSES IN THE JOÃO PESSOA CITY COUNCIL: AN ANALYSIS OF LEGISLATION AND DISCOURSES

Time: 09:00

Show Summary
-
Transnational events, which took place in the 1990s and were organized by the UN, opened space for a period of active and reactive politicization of the notion of gender and reproductive and sexual rights. Studies identify the moment as a new temporality, marked by the creation of conditions for the renewed and simultaneous eruption of anti-gender politics. Due to the massive occupation of the extreme right in public institutions, such as the Legislative Houses, in Latin American countries, such as Brazil, the anti-gender offensives have assumed places of relevance in contexts of political transition. Paying attention to the absence of studies aimed at understanding how offensives are constructed and pulverized in local contexts, this research will be concerned with taking stock of the antigender crusades found in the City Council of João Pessoa (CMJP) from the year 2016 to 2022. It will also deal with presenting the institutional flows and the processing of bills in the Legislative House from an ethnography of legislative processes, using action documents and records found in the Legislative Support System (SAPL). As a result, I present an analysis about the attempts to approve bills on the prohibition of neutral language in the municipality of João Pessoa, exposing the bureaucratic procedures and the political and discursive maneuvers used in favor of their approvals, understanding that this issue has become one of the current and constantly attacked themes by neoconservative, religious or secular alliances.

actions was organized that became a priority in the cultural sector in the pandemic
context through web conferences, sectoral meetings, regional meetings and etc. The
monitoring and analysis of the research were carried out digitally, both in terms of the
constitution of the research field and in terms of the methods applied. The research
focused on monitoring the national scenario, especially in the actions developed within

Show Summary
-
The notion of citizenship linked to equal rights has little to say. It is necessary to go deeply and check on what bases this notion is based. Thus, the purpose of this study is to analyze the legal process of construction of Brazilian citizenship, whose questions have an extremely negative impact on the black population, especially if we take the text of the 1824 and 1891 Constitution and related legal provisions, to compare with the contemporary moment. The intent is to demonstrate, through a documentary analysis - ethnography in archives and media - the conditions for the production of these legal statements in a given historical context, in dialogue with the subjects who produced them and imbued with moral values and configured in power relations. As the notion of citizenship is marked by an idea of a universal person supported by law, which, consequently, starts to exclude a portion of the population from social life and the guarantee of behaving and circulating as a rights holder, part of the speeches and practice legal entities have been putting black people in limbo, considering them a person in a very particular way, having also been property. In this movement, the concept of device will be expensive in the present investigation, as it apprehends the link between living beings and the context in which they live, resulting in the process of knowledge-power of constitutional statements and later theories (of men of science), the reverberate over the black population and, consequently, in the construction of a certain identity.

Show Summary

Since March 2020, Brazil has been going through one of its most difficult
historical periods. As the months went by, the Covid-19 pandemic was no longer just a
serious problem from a health point of view, but exposed much more complex structural
issues, including some that had remained practically marginal until then. In this context,
the nursing professionals, who had already been working in very complicated
conditions due to the lack of salary recognition and adequate working conditions, were
directly impacted by the problem. The work experiences of these professionals during
the pandemic in the city of João Pessoa are the theme of this work. Responsible for the
direct care of infected patients, the narratives of the nurses' experiences are the point from which the story of the pandemic is being told here. Over eight interviews carried
out remotely, these care professionals reported the events that occurred during the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic in the hospital services where they work in João Pessoa, in the state of
Paraíba. Issues such as risk, illness, lack of adequate working conditions and the
intensification of the dimensions of the care process at a time of complete social
vulnerability were identified as aggravating factors in this period.

of the digital influencers, interlocutors of this research, emerges in society. Thinking of
the reach and the role that online content producers (influencers) have in a consuming
society, we try to draw a line of understanding about how and to what extent these
professionals contribute to the construction of new aesthetic identities of masculinity.
As this is a research on digital influencers, we took the digital platform Instagram as our
field, where we observed the profiles of every interlocutor, their posts, interactions with
their followers and brief interactions via private messaging; we have also used Google
Meet for longer interviews.
In our final considerations, it is possible to understand the role digital influencers have in
the construction of new forms of masculinity in the consuming society, mainly with regards to Millennials and Generation Z, demographics that were addressed in this
research.

Show Summary
-
This research aims to outline the consequences of the covid pandemic for
street clinics attending to homeless people on the streets of João Pessoa, Brazil. The
investigation intends to understand the macropolitics implemented during the
pandemic and then analyze the micropolitics of the local reality of the homeless
population. It is an ethnographic fieldwork carried out while accompanying the care
provided by the itinerant clinic and its van, from preventive care until the early stages
of vaccination. This ethnography has dedicated itself to the urban intricacies,
healthcare attendance and the corporealities of homelessness, all of which highlight
the scope of invisibility experienced by this population. Several inconsistencies are
perceived between the public policies regarding the virus and the homeless
population, such as stay at home and wash your hands. The fundamental premise
of this research is the antagonism which permeates the fight against the pandemic and
the structural suffering constantly endured by those living on the streets, who are also
marked by infirmities already present and reunited within their vulnerable bodies in a
real syndemic.

Show Summary
-
This research investigated, through ethnographic research, agroecological production and consumption at the Ecovárzea fair (Association of Agriculturists and Agroecological Farmers of Várzea Paraibana) located at the Federal University of Paraíba, in the city of João Pessoa/PB. The purpose of this work was to understand how Ecovárzea, through the production and commercialization of agroecological products, exists in this hegemonic food scenario. Faced with a context in which Agribusiness, nutritionism, supermarkets, capitalist logic, the acceleration of space/time in modernity and the insertion of women in the labor market have contributed to traditional food knowledge (of production and consumption), environmental preservation and the autonomy of all beings are in decline, being replaced by the food industry. Thus, this ethnographic study made use of the concepts of Life Ecology and Lattice (Ingold 2000; 2012) to analyze this process. Looking at food through its potential for resistance and overcoming the nature/culture dichotomy in formulating a new perspective on the world. Thus, the objective of this work is to apprehend how customers, farmers, the UFPB (Federal University of Paraíba), social movements and the style of the fair contribute to this movement.

Food permeates a large part of human relations and is accessed daily through the relations of
senses and the most basic needs of the human body, expanding into social relations in the
formation of identities. In the case of the Xukuru people, food is central as a way of life,
permeating all their knowledge traditions and relationships between humans, the
environment, and enchanted beings. This research was conducted in the Xukuru territory, from
a methodology of a sensitive committed anthropology, with data from my experiences in the
Xukuru kitchens since 2016 and with fieldwork until the year 2021, visits in which I could follow
the home and event kitchens, and understand how relationships with food begin in farming,
expanding into cosmological relationships throughout the Xukuru life cycle. My main research
point is the Xukuru community Caxo da Boa Vista, which practices experiences with
agriculture, food, and spirituality, which are absorbed in the Xukuru Life Project.
The cosmological constructions have food as the main element of integration between bodies,
environment, and spirituality. This is reflected in practices based on knowledge derived from
the science of the woods, which becomes the Xukuru epistemology about their relationship
with sacred nature and is institutionalized as the Xukuru Life Project. This article seeks to
understand how these knowledge traditions are formed, understanding the cultural flows that
permeate the formation of sub-traditions of knowledge, as suggested by Barth. These cultural
flows are added to the experiences and senses, which incorporate meanings and identity of
the food practices, in a creative process of technical constructions with constantly changing
cosmological construction processes.
