Os diálogos entre a História da Educação e a História Cultural possibilitam desvelar aspectos diversos das práticas educacionais fora da escola e da escolarização, revitalizando, dessa forma, as abordagens em História da Educação. A partir dessa perspectiva, buscamos compreender as interfaces existentes entre as dinâmicas sociais, culturais, políticas e “educacionais”, que marcaram as vivências das mulheres afrodescendentes, que se dedicaram aos serviços domésticos, em Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais, entre os anos de 1897 a 1920, no âmbito do processo de formação do mercado de trabalho livre no Brasil. As histórias das mulheres afrodescendentes permitem “esboçar” múltiplos retratos das liberdades por elas construídas naquele contexto. Contudo, para aquelas que se dedicaram ao serviço doméstico no pós-abolição, a conduta moral e o controle sobre o corpo feminino possibilitaram traçar um “fio condutor” em comum para as suas distintas histórias de vida e de trabalhadoras.“A girl of color…”: honesty, morality, and female domestic service. Belo Horizonte, 1897-1920. The dialogues that exist between the History of Education and Cultural History reveal various aspects of educational practices outside of school and schooling, thus revitalizing our approaches to the History of Education. Based on this perspective, we sought to understand the existing interfaces between the social, cultural, political, and "educational" dynamics that marked the experiences of Afro-descendant women who dedicated themselves to domestic services in Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais, from 1897 to 1920, as part of the process of forming the free labor market in Brazil. The histories of Afro-descendant women allow us to "sketch" multiple portraits of the freedoms that they created within this context. However, for those who dedicated themselves to domestic services in the post-slavery era, moral conduct and control of the female body enabled us to trace a common thread running through the different histories of their lives and work.

The present article discusses how Paulo Freire was ahead of his time with his theoretical contributions by reflecting on the author’s groundbreaking insights, particularly those developed in his Pedagogy of the oppressed. To do so, the paper first introduces his Theory of Dialogical Action and the premises that explain how it established the theoretical grounds for some of the most relevant theoretical works in the Social Sciences such as Habermas’ Theory of the Communicative Action developed more than a decade after Freire’s work. The second part of the paper further explores the influence of the premises of the Dialogic Education, by reviewing the theoretical foundations of other major theoretical works and practical experiences that building on Freire’s work and the centrality of dialogue in the educational process continue enabling the creation of future through transformative educational experiences. In so doing, the impact that the legacy of one of the most relevant authors in the history of education has had upon most relevant theoretical conceptualisations as well as a successful practical key experiences is further explained.

This article aimed to investigate the bibliography of the Study of Brazilian Problems (PBS) discipline at the Federal University of Paraná (UFPR) between 1971 and 1984. It was used primary and secondary sources, which unveiled the theoretical corpus that supported BPS teaching at UFPR. Some methodological elements of Cultural History were mobilized based on the understanding that individuals and groups grasp the social world and share it in a particular way, producing strategies and practices (political, social and educational) (Chartier 2002). Finally, the analysis revealed that BPS’ teaching programs were based on a bibliographic diversity, marked by books that were aligned with the Doctrine of the National Security and Development (DNSD), but which appeared alongside the works of some anti-regime authors. And that bibliographic focused on national problems denoted adherence to a larger DNSD policy aimed at encouraging the participation of university youth in the national political and economic plan.   Keywords: Brazilian Problems Study.

Theprocess of European integration is posing a challenge to scholars in the humanities and the social sciences to rethink their frames of analysis. The once dominant nation-state has lost relevance while transnational processes and exchanges are receiving greater attention. This is not only true for the social sciences and economics, but also for history. The closer the European states are integrated, the more questions about Europe's past are asked. But what is European history, and upon which methods and units of analysis can it be built? Is it the sum of national histories, just as the EU is a union of nation-states, or is it something more? Since no one subject of European history can possibly encompass all countries on the continent, it is clear that independent of the general topic there needs to be a certain selection of studies about more than one local or national case. If those studies, no matter whether they cover political, social, or cultural history, are to be synthesized on a European level, comparisons need to be made at a certain stage of any given work. The same holds true for the history of Central Europe, an area with a particularly high degree of internal differentiation.

Wide Gap

This chapter introduces ‘the problem’ of meaningless research in the social sciences. Over the past twenty years there has been an enormous growth in research publications, but never before in the history of humanity have so many social scientists written so much to so little effect. Academic research in the social sciences is often inward looking, addressed to small tribes of fellow researchers, and its purpose in what is increasingly a game is that of getting published in a prestigious journal. A wide gap has emerged between the esoteric concerns of social science researchers and the pressing issues facing today’s societies. The chapter critiques the inaccessibility of the language used by academic researchers, and the formulaic qualities of most research papers, fostered by the demands of the publishing game. It calls for a radical move from research for the sake of publishing to research that has something meaningful to say.

The City

This book analyses the physical, social, and cultural history of Rome in late antiquity. Between AD 270 and 535, the former capital of the Roman empire experienced a series of dramatic transformations in its size, appearance, political standing, and identity, as emperors moved to other cities and the Christian church slowly became its dominating institution. Urban Space and Aristocratic Power in Late Antique Rome provides a new picture of these developments, focusing on the extraordinary role played by members of the traditional elite, the senatorial aristocracy, in the redefinition of the city, its institutions, and spaces. During this period, Roman senators and their families became increasingly involved in the management of the city and its population, in building works, and in the performance of secular and religious ceremonies and rituals. As this study shows, for approximately three hundred years the houses of the Roman elite competed with imperial palaces and churches in shaping the political map and the social life of the city. Making use of modern theories of urban space, the book considers a vast array of archaeological, literary, and epigraphic documents to show how the former centre of the Mediterranean world was progressively redefined and controlled by its own elite.
