RESUMOO objetivo do trabalho é inscrever os enfrentamentos para implementação de um projeto interdisciplinar em escola pública periférica, sobre a cultura afro-brasileira. Justifica-se a partir de evidências cotidianas e estatísticas onde os sujeitos negros são “invisibilizados” nas narrativas que compõem a identidade nacional brasileira. Pelas narrativas das professoras envolvidas no projeto, buscou-se problematizar, contextualizar e refletir a partir de bibliografia majoritariamente negra, as crises e dramas do cotidiano escolar específicos ao recorte racial. Considera-se que professoras e professores necessitam fazer voz para que a prática de enaltecer a pluralidade de existências e a luta do povo negro no Brasil ocorra não apenas em datas específicas, mas ao longo de todo o ano letivo.Consciência negra.

It is justified based on daily evidence and statistics where black people are “invisible” in the narratives that make up the Brazilian national identity. Through the narratives of the teachers involved in the project, we sought to problematize, contextualize, and reflect from a mostly black bibliography, such as crises and dramas of the school routine specifics to the racial profile. It is considered that qualified teachers need to make a voice so that the practice of extolling the plurality of existences and the struggle of the black people in Brazil occurs not only on specific dates, but throughout the school year.Black awareness.

È giustificato sulla base di prove e statistiche quotidiane in cui i soggetti neri sono "invisibili" nelle narrazioni che compongono l'identità nazionale brasiliana. Attraverso le narrazioni dei docenti coinvolti nel progetto si è cercato di problematizzare, contestualizzare e riflettere da una bibliografia prevalentemente nera, le crisi e i drammi della routine scolastica tipica del profilo razziale. Si ritiene che gli insegnanti e le insegnanti debbano farsi una voce in modo che la pratica di esaltare la pluralità delle esistenze e la lotta dei neri in Brasile avvenga non solo in date specifiche, ma durante l'intero anno scolastico.Coscienza nera.

Crisis Events

AbstractEconomic and political crisis situations are interpreted differently in different societies and cultures. What is perceived as a major threat in one society can be experienced as an everyday occurrence in other societies. This shows that crises are not issues that exist independently of people, but that they are to a large extent the result of social interpretations. An example of how a community interprets events as a surmountable challenge, rather than a crisis, is Argentina’s public discourse on the 2014 default. Instead of a discourse that concentrates on economic, political and social problems, the event provoked a political discourse on national identity. The present paper uses the methods of descriptive discourse analysis to study this solution-driven way of handling crisis events. The investigation focuses on the cultural knowledge and discourse traditions used in Argentina to interpret the country’s situation in the summer of 2014. The study analyzes how these cultural and linguistic resources contribute to coping with the situation of default while strengthening national identity.

Integrative Effect

 “Catastrophe” is a term of that culture which is threatened by it; the modern understanding of catastrophe dialectically marks the boundary between nature and culture where the term originates. This can be exemplarily shown in the cultural coding of Swiss topography: threatening scenarios have been incorporated into Switzerland’s idyllic image repertoire since the 18th century, and they further developed into a “catastrophe culture” of its own. One looks up at the Alps from all directions not only because they are the symbol of identity, but also because they represent a collective threat and thus a challenge for solidary self-assertion. Thus, catastrophes support the construction of modern, national identity. Swiss literature contributes to the specific cultivation of catastrophe with various disaster scenarios. However, it also develops counter scenarios, which reflexively question the integrative effect of the catastrophe: It hears the discord in the unity choir and it reflects Switzerland’s alleged bystander role during global catastrophes. Moreover, it opens localness, when it ideologizes itself as “homeland,” to universality by releasing the transgressive energy with which the catastrophe attempts to destroy all political, topographical, medial, and aesthetic boundaries. Resumen La "catástrofe" es un concepto de aquella cultura a la que amenaza; el concepto moderno de catástrofe marca dialécticamente la frontera entre naturaleza y cultura en la que se origina. Esto se muestra de manera ejemplar en la codificación cultural de la topografía suiza: desde el siglo dieciocho se han ido incorporando en el repertorio idílico de imágenes de Suiza escenarios de amenaza que han ido evolucionando hacia una verdadera "cultura de la catástrofe". Los Alpes pueden observarse desde todos los ángulos ya que no sólo son el símbolo de identidad, sino que además representan una amenaza colectiva y, así, un desafío para la autoafirmación solidaria. De este modo, las catástrofes tienen un efecto en la formación de una identidad nacional y moderna. La literatura de Suiza contribuye con variados escenarios del ocaso a este cultivo específico de la catástrofe. No obstante, desarrolla también contraescenarios reales que ponen en duda de manera reflexiva el efecto integrativo de la catástrofe: Oye los tonos disonantes en un coro uniforme y le devuelve a Suiza su presunto papel de espectador en las catástrofes mundiales. Finalmente, abre lo local, cuando se ideologiza como "patria", a lo universal, liberando esa energía transgresiva con la que la catástrofe derrumba toda frontera política, topográfica, medial y estética.

Este estudio histórico se propone abordar -en el escenario de la Argentina Moderna y hasta mediados del siglo XX- las característi-cas de la organización del territorio en tanto parte de la identidad nacional, la acción del Estado y su burocracia técnica, así como el alcance de las políticas públicas agrarias, conceptualmente defi-nidas. El objetivo es dar cuenta de los desequilibrios regionales, en un país que concentra alrededor de las tres cuartas partes de su población, su infraestructura y su producción agraria y agroin-dustrial en una cuarta parte del territorio. Una situación que logra trascender los cambios políticos y gubernamentales ocurridos. Conocer sus causas y consecuencias es parte del desafío que se emprende en estas páginas. This historical research intends to tackle – in Modern Argentina and until the mid-twentieth century - the characteristics of the territorial organization as part of the national identity, the State action and its technical bureaucracy together with the scope of the agrarian public policies, conceptually identified. The aim is to show the regional inequalities in a country that concentrates about three-quarters of its population, its infrastructure and its agrarian production and agro-industrial in one quarter of the territory. A situtation that moves beyond political and governmental changes. One of the challenges of these pages is to know the causes and consequences.

For nearly a decade, Brazil has surpassed Thailand as the world's premier sex tourism destination. As the first full-length ethnography of sex tourism in Brazil, this pioneering study treats sex tourism as a complex and multidimensional phenomenon that involves a range of activities and erotic connections, from sex work to romantic transnational relationships. The book explores sex tourism in the Brazilian state of Bahia from the perspectives of foreign tourists, tourism industry workers, sex workers who engage in liaisons with foreigners, and Afro-Brazilian men and women who contend with foreigners' stereotypical assumptions about their licentiousness. The book argues that the cultural and sexual economies of tourism are inextricably linked in the Bahian capital city of Salvador. It shows how the Bahian state strategically exploits the touristic desire for exotic culture by appropriating an eroticized blackness and commodifying the Afro-Brazilian culture in order to sell Bahia to foreign travelers. The book combines historical, sociological, anthropological, cultural studies, and feminist perspectives to demonstrate how sexism, racism, and socioeconomic inequality interact in the context of tourism in Bahia.
