The sociology of education in Britain is generally regarded as having gone through something of a paradigm shift in the late 1960s and early 1970s. A supposed “new direction” in the sociology of education was seen to emerge from the work of Basil Bernstein and Michael F.D. Young and their colleagues and students at the Institute of Education in London. This was symbolized in the sub-title of the first major publication by this group — Knowledge and Control: New Directions for the Sociology of Education (Young 1971a). Insofar as there was anything that had a coherent claim to be termed a “new sociology of education” (Gorbutt 1972), its approach was one which sought to make problematic that which had hitherto been taken for granted in education (Young, 1971b).

Young Professor

Em novembro de 2013, Michael Young, professor emérito do Instituto de Educação da Universidade de Londres, esteve na Faculdade de Educação da Universidade de São Paulo, participando como palestrante, ao lado do Professor Antônio Flávio Barbosa Moreira, da Universidade Católica de Petrópolis, do II Seminário FEUSP sobre Currículo – Escola e Sociedade do Conhecimento: aportes para a discussão dos processos de construção, seleção e organização do currículo. Na ocasião, expôs sua perspectiva atual sobre o debate teórico em torno do currículo, afirmando a falta de uma sólida teoria do conhecimento que oriente as discussões acerca das escolhas curriculares. Identificou uma recusa dos teóricos do currículo em enfrentar o que considera a função específica da educação: a promoção do desenvolvimento intelectual dos estudantes, com base no que define como conhecimento poderoso, intimamente ligado às áreas do conhecimento, nas universidades, e às disciplinas escolares. A reflexão central para esses teóricos, segundo Young, deveria se concentrar na pergunta: o que deve ser ensinado às crianças e jovens na escola? Vale destacar que sua posição atual contrasta, em diversos pontos, com a perspectiva que marcou o movimento da Nova Sociologia da Educação, na Inglaterra, no início da década de 1970, e que foi apresentada no livro Knowledge and Control: New Directions for the Sociology of Education, editado por ele e considerado um marco do referido movimento. A entrevista a seguir pretende trazer elementos para a compreensão dessa transformação na análise, empreendida por Michael Young, das questões referentes ao currículo.

Abstract We are witnessing a paradigm shift regarding the theatrologist’s position in the Romanian theatre environment. While, until recently, theatrology meant cultural journalism, this definition is no longer sufficient or attractive for secondary school graduates. Romania’s higher education offer has changed increasingly in the last years, in the attempt to keep up with the requirements of the labour market; the solution was provided by the area of cultural management. Every last faculty in this sector covers the new direction of study and research. This article seeks to investigate the existing educational offers, which should allow an understanding and a new complete image of the theatrologist in Romania; in our opinion, this image will have an increasing impact on the national theatre community, shaped, of course, by the new directions of study.

Resilient Behavior

The objective of this study was to estimate the ratio of resilient youth and compare this to youth with aggressive behavior, and to youth who also exhibit sexually risky behavior and drug use. A cross-section study of a representative sample of people between aged between 12 and 60 who are residents of Medellin, Colombia, and its metropolitan area (N = 4,654) was employed using probabilistic multi-stage sampling. Youth between 14 and 26 years old were selected for the present analysis (n = 1,780). The proportion of resilient youth is 22.9%, of aggressors is 11.3%, and that of youth with other risky conduct is 65.8%. The high ratio of resilient youth calls for a reorientation of public policy toward prevention and control of violence, prioritizing the promotion of resilient behavior instead of continuing with tertiary prevention actions.
