Based on hints gathered in documents and observations, the aim of this work is to reveal emancipatory meanings present, though invisible or not fully realized in regulatory processes, as well as to understand knowledge and ideas impregnated in the daily practices of social agents. In order to valorize edge knowledge and social practices, this work is grounded on Boaventura de Sousa Santos, especially on his formulation of a two-fold Sociology: one related to the social experiences that have not been recognized yet as valuable and the second related to the expansion of possible social experiences. The movement corresponds to the construction of an archeology of already developed social experiences, though not visible or recognized by the existing theoretical frameworks, so as to reveal both kinds of experiences: the recognized ones and the possible ones. By means of experiences developed by ordinary people, the aim is to get to know and socialize experiences conducted in boundary scientific works in several social areas to make it possible to gather hints to the production of alternatives to hegemonic ideas and to the maintenance of traditions abandoned by modern sciences. Based on what can be called «Sociology of absences», experiences can be valued, publicized and used to convey hidden meanings, to exploit possible ways to deal with posed questions and to legitimate new forms of thinking. Based on these assumptions, we present a reflection on an experience in the social field, regarding possible conflicts and dialogues between forms of knowledge. In this case, we treat the pedagogical experience with video and TV programs, developed by teachers and experts on education and communication in the official schools of Rio de JaneiroCity, being the latter put in charge of helping the former in their pedagogical practices. By means of the hints gathered, sometimes taken as unimportant, it was possible to identify in the teachers´ speeches and actions, particular ways to work works with video and TV programs that, far from being characterized by lack of knowledge, were plenty of alternative logical thinking and could lead to the production of creative and emancipatory practices. In short, what could be seen as meaningless could also be regarded as emerging knowledge. Com base em indícios resgatados em documentos e observações, o objetivo deste trabalho é revelar sentidos emancipatórios existentes, mas invisíveis ou ignorados, em meio aos processos regulatórios, bem como compreender os saberes, as idéias que impregnam as práticas cotidianas desenvolvidas pelos sujeitos sociais. No sentido de valorizar os conhecimentos e as práticas sociais marginais, fundamentamo-nos em Boaventura de Sousa Santos, que propõe a sociologia das ausências e a sociologia das emergências. Na primeira, o movimento é o de expandir o domínio das experiências sociais já disponíveis, contudo negligenciadas, enquanto na segunda é o de expandir o domínio das experiências sociais possíveis. Propõe uma arqueologia das experiências já existentes, mas invisíveis, no intuito de revelar as experiências do mundo, tanto as disponíveis como as possíveis. Trata-se de revelar e difundir experiências vividas por pessoas comuns, de conhecer e propalar experiências construídas em trabalhos científicos marginalizados e de encontrar e anunciar conhecimentos/experiências nos mais diversos campos sociais, no movimento de constituição de alternativas à lógica hegemônica e, ao mesmo tempo, de manutenção de tradições marginalizadas e desperdiçadas pela ciência moderna. Por meio da sociologia das ausências, estas experiências são resgatadas e divulgadas para se tornarem possíveis encaminhamentos das questões enfrentadas, para se constituírem em outros sentidos para a transformação social ou, ainda, para propor novas formas de pensar. Apresentamos uma reflexão sobre experiência no campo social de conhecimentos que, segundo Santos, trata de conflitos e diálogos possíveis entre diferentes formas de conhecimento. No caso deste trabalho, a tentativa é a de resgatar a experiência pedagógica no uso de vídeos de alguns dos professores da Rede Municipal de Educação do Rio de Janeiro, ignorada pelos próprios professores e por especialistas nas áreas de educação e comunicação, sendo os últimos produtores de vídeos educativos para auxiliar a prática pedagógica dos primeiros. O exercício de ler indícios e pistas, muitas vezes insignificantes, mas reveladores, presentes nas falas e ações dos professores, indicou que, longe de ausência de saber, os modos peculiares de utilização de TV e vídeo revelam outros saberes e outra(s) lógica(s). O que pode sugerir ação isolada e desprovida de conhecimento, também pode ser compreendido como pista para uma prática e um saber criativo e emancipatório.

Commodity consumption behaviour in eating places is heavily influenced by design factors, either its atmosphere or serving facilities. The preferences of eating places are influenced by the social class of people. The study aims to gain insight on people’s behaviour at restaurants and cafes associated with the design of the eating places. Based on the observations made on three eating places, there are different eating place preference behaviours. Besides its design and facilities, however, there are two types of eating places, which are used either to consume the food served or to enjoy the atmosphere of the place. © 2016 The Author.

Abstract: Policy analyses based on traditional or structuralist definitions of the state are important, but they have some limitations for explaining processes related to policymaking, implementation, and results. Bourdieusian sociology links the analysis to objective and subjective dimensions of social practices and can help elucidate these phenomena. This article provides such empirical evidence by analyzing the social genesis of a Brazilian policy that currently serves 18 million workers and was established by the state in 1976 through the Fiscal Incentives Program for Workers’ Nutrition (PIFAT/PAT). The study linked the analysis of the trajectory of social agents involved in the policy’s formulation to the historical conditions that allowed the policy to exist in the first place. Although the literature treats the policy as a workers’ food program (PAT), the current study showed that it actually represented a new model for paying financial subsidies to companies that provided food to their employees, meanwhile upgrading the commercial market for collective meals. The study further showed that the program emerged as an administrative policy, but linked to economic agents. The program became a specific social space in which issues related to workers’ nutrition became secondary, but useful for disguising what had been an explicit side of its genesis, namely its essentially fiscal nature.

In recent years, the process of social change through improvement of residences in decaying neighborhoods—gentrification—has itself changed. Traditional families (married with children) and a broader spectrum of the social class spectrum are more likely to be involved. The present research takes an ethnographic perspective and considers the experiences and understandings of a set of families in one urban community as they attempt a variety of home improvement (do-it-yourself or DIY) projects. Although cultural and institutional representations of home improvement are found to be helpful, they frequently fail to capture the complexities of actual home improvement projects. The practical logic of home repair in this community involves leadership, responsiveness, continuing struggle, and compromise. To accomplish the work under circumstances in which ideals do not match reality, these families use humor, exchange, and trial and error. Their lives show that family, home, and community are inseparable in the everyday experience of home improvement.

The primary theoretical perspective and framework of analysis for this study are public sphere theory and political economy. Although standardization is a social practice that springs from tradition and not from any theoretical grounding, it is situated and institutionalized in a public but non-governmental setting that could be seen as a public sphere as described by Habermas (1962). Public sphere theory provides a focus on publicness and the discursive process that are relevant for analyzing and understanding standardization practice. Political economy provides an approach to understanding the various interests being served by the social practices that are relevant to this study, and to the underlying reasons for their establishment.

The social class which was the spiritus movens of rapid economic transformation in the lands of the Kingdom of Poland in the nineteenth century was the bourgeoisie. In the public sphere, there is still a strong conviction among contemporary Poles about the moral defects of capitalists, for whom, according to the prevailing stereotypes, only profit was important. The author of this article, to contradict this claim, gives an example of the life and actions of Jan Gottlieb Bloch (1836–1902). The aim of the article is to present the broad economic, social and scientific activity of Bloch as a member of the bourgeoisie of the Kingdom of Poland. The author also points to the need for further research on the work of Jan Bloch, especially in the field of his economic and irenological writing.
