La expansión del capitalismo, a fines del siglo pasado, ha provocado profundas transformaciones en las estructuras sociales y en las relaciones de producción en el agro. En el norte de Córdoba, Argentina, lugar donde se realizó este estudio de caso, la ampliación de la frontera agraria con centralidad en la soja propició la inclusión de nuevos agentes productivos y la exclusión de otros. Así, coexistían diferentes formas de ocupación y modalidades de apropiación y puesta en producción de la tierra. Asimismo, la selección de lugares aptos para que el capital desplegara sus estrategias de reproducción generó la fragmentación del espacio geográfico. Este artículo se propone identificar a los productores que configuran la estructura social agraria y comprender cómo estos agentes –definidos por el volumen y la estructura de capital que poseen– generan el campo productivo y las relaciones de fuerza que lo caracterizan. La estrategia metodológica combina el análisis de datos secundarios y primarios provenientes de entrevistas en profundidad realizadas a productores, referentes técnicos y agentes institucionales de la región. Abstract The expansion of capitalism at the end of the last century has led to profound changes in social structures and in the relations of production in agriculture. In the north of Córdoba, Argentina, where this case study was carried out, the expansion of the agricultural frontier with centrality in soy allowed the inclusion of new productive agents and the exclusion of others. Thus, different forms of occupation and modalities of appropriation and putting into production of the land coexisted. Likewise, the selection of suitable places for capital to display its reproduction strategies generated the fragmentation of the geographical space. This article aims to identify the producers that shape the agrarian social structure, and understand how these agents, defined by the volume and structure of capital they possess,  generate the productive field and the relations of force that characterize it. The methodological strategy combines the analysis of secondary and primary data from in-depth interviews with producers, technical referents and institutional agents in the region.

The aim of this study is to understand the suffering of a patient with an illness, by using a secondary research method, that is, a qualitative meta-study. The primary data source of the meta-study includes "biographical reports". This project is based on a case study, in which the first-hand experiences of a patient with an illness were collected. The findings of the reports were compiled using the Archivos de la Memoria collection of the Index Foundation (Granada, Spain) and journals specialized in editing these materials. A selection of 20 biographical reports was targeted. The results of the meta-study show that suffering is a multidimensional process within a framework of ambiguous feelings. The suffering involves family and social network participation. Patients develop a range of strategies to overcome the illness. One of the effects is the fear of illness relapse or worsening.

AbstractThe lived, and oftentimes silenced, experiences of "foreign workers" articulate the negotiation of power relations between "citizen" and "foreigner", and "Us" and "Them". These are translated into discursive practices that, in effect, legitimize and entrench differences — hence, inequalities — that effectively discipline the "foreign worker" as "not one of Us". By taking the example of Bangladeshi construction workers in Singapore as a case study, I argue in this paper that the workspaces of "foreign construction workers" in Singapore typify that of a "total institution", which correspondingly moulds the worker into a discursive ideal — the "good, docile Other". Such impositions and productions of Otherness, however, face rupture as workers (re)negotiate, (re)work, and (re)inscribe their everyday lives through the employment of what James Scott (1985, 1987) terms "everyday 'resistances'" in rising above that which subjugates them. I will present in this paper primary data elicited and collated from direct participant observation, fieldwork, and in-depth interviews conducted in a construction project in Singapore.

Purpose of the study: The rambu solo’ ceremony is a traditional death ceremony of the Tana Toraja regency with roots in local beliefs. However, over time, the tradition has become associated with social status and economic motives. These changes have led to many issues. This article analyses the motivations that drive the compromises that families must accept when selecting a form of rambu solo’. Methodology: This was a case study conducted in the village of Lemo in the regency of Tana Toraja. Primary data collected through in-depth interviews and observation. Informants consisted of cultural figures, religious figures, and indigenous locals with experience performing rambu solo’ — secondary data taken from existing literature about Toraja Regency. Main Findings: Results showed that compromises taken for motives of social status were irrational but comprised the most common reasoning behind rambu solo’ ceremony selection. For those families motivated by social status, choice of rambu solo’ ceremony form performed for one of two reasons: preserving their social status ascribed to them from birth (attributed status) Applications of this study: The selection of non-rapasanrambu solo’ ceremonies based on economic motives were rationally-sound but relatively rare. Avoiding wastefulness in the performing of rambu solo’ is done through simplifying the procession through shortening the storage period of the remains of the deceased before the rambu solo’ reducing the number of days of the rambu solo’ ceremony. Novelty/Originality of this study: This shows that irrational decision-making, in the context of traditional ceremonies, cannot be considered irrational; even irrational decisions can be justified and explained based on individual interpretations of rationality based on local culture. Interestingly, social status was the most common motive form selection based on economic motives were rational but less popular among the people sound choice theory
