<p>O presente estudo objetiva mostrar o padrão discursivo racial na produção da obra <em>Clara dos Anjos </em>(1922) de Lima Barreto em contraposição a essa releitura a telenovela <em>Fera ferida </em>(1993), de Aguinaldo Silva, Ricardo Linhares e Ana Maria Moretzsohn. Para constituir o aporte teórico estabelecido nesse trabalho, utilizamos a noção de formação discursiva segundo Michel Pêcheux (1997), buscando apreender, como a macroesturação enunciativa dos objetos <em>Clara dos Anjos </em>e <em>Fera ferida </em>se articulam através da perspectiva do dizer racial brasileiro. Parece-nos, que nesse sentido a filiação discursiva dos autores têm a capacidade de reproduzir a veleidade racial brasileira, legitimando o mito da democracia racial e o posicionamento imposto pela classe dirigente, que preza o domínio de vida capitalista. Contudo, a obra de Barreto ressignifica a óptica racial por meio da criação de “uma literatura social politicamente militante, voltada para a urgência do cotidiano em mudança e ao mesmo tempo inspirada na redenção do homem e na defesa do trabalhador oprimido pelas distorções sociais”. (PRADO, 1980, p. 13). De forma divergente, a narrativa <em>Fera ferida </em>mostrará, em sua trama, a desconstrução dos discursos produzidos sobre o negro, perspectiva que distorce a racialidade e, consequentemente, demanda uma nova ordem, como a criação de leis que se interpõem de forma a rever a questão racial.</p><p>This study aims to show the racial pattern in the discursive production of <em>Clara dos Anjos </em>(1922), work of Lima Barreto in contrast to that rereading the soap opera <em>Fera Ferida </em>(1993), written by Aguinaldo Silva, Ricardo Linhares and Ana Maria Moretzsohn. Constituting the theoretical framework established in this work, we use the notion of discursive formation according to Michel Pêcheux (1997), seeking to understand, as the macrostructure enunciation of objects Clara dos Anjos and Fera Ferida articulate through the perspective of the Brazilian racial say. It seems to me that, in that sense the discursive affiliation of authors has the ability to play the Brazilian racial whim, legitimizing myth of racial democracy and the position imposed by the ruling class, which values the capitalist life domain. However, the work of Barreto resignifies racial optical through the creation of “a politically militant social literature, focused on the urgency of change in everyday and at the same time inspired by the redemption of man and the defense of the oppressed worker by social distortions.” (PRADO, 1980, p. 13). In different ways, the <em>Fera Ferida </em>narrative shows in its plot, the deconstruction of discourses produced on black, perspective that distorts raciality and therefore demand a new order, such as the creation of laws that stand in order to review the racial issue.</p>

Women experience numerous contradictions as they undergo social change. Many have celebrated the autonomy of Nigerian women. Some “got drunk” with the notions of this autonomy. Change created a number of problems that supposed autonomy could not come to grips with. Just a few examples: First, women appeared to contribute more labor to the development process than men, burdening them with physical and time constraints. Second, modernization created new resources and along with them, new kinds of inequalities in access to resources. Specifically, women had much more limited access to resources than men. Consequently, women could not invest resources in the same ways as men.

This article intends to analyze the use of metaphors in a corpus of Donald Trump’s speeches on immigration; its main goal is to determine how migrants were depicted in the 2016 American presidential election, and how metaphor manipulated voters in the creation of this image. This study is multimodal since not only the linguistic aspect of speeches but also gestures are considered. The first part consists in presenting an overview of the theories on metaphor. It provides the theoretical framework and develops the main tenets of the ‘Conceptual Metaphor Theory’ (CMT). The second part deals with multimodality and presents what modes and gestures are. The third part provides the corpus and methodology. The last part consists in the corpus study and provides the main source domains as well as other rhetorical tools that are used by Trump to depict migrants and manipulate voters.

This article aims to identify the key elements underlying a destination capability (DC) and to examine what the genesis of these factors is and how they interact to foster the destination development. The article explores a specific development process—the creation of a new product in an alpine destination (Livigno, Italy)—making use of a theoretical framework structured around four major dimensions: DCs, coordination at the destination level, inter-destination bridge ties, and destination development. The results help clarify the genesis of a DC in the context of new product development. First, the dynamics underlying the creation of a DC show that coordination at the destination level constitutes the heart of the process, whereas the integration of scattered resources in the new product plays a more limited role. Second, from a dynamic perspective, the analysis has identified three patterns (scouting, implementation, and involvement).

Drawing on the current research, I argue that the extensive violence against Canada's Indigenous women and girls is enabled by public discourses that rely heavily on racist stereotypes. I use Razack's theoretical framework of "gendered disposibility" and "colonial terror" as a lense for critically viewing violence against Indigenous women and girls. To demonstrate the severity of violence, evidence from the Highway of Tears cases, incidents of police abuse, and the creation of the National Inquiry into Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls are all covered.

Aside from the general government and the non-resident sector, textbooks on macroeconomics uniformly define the following correlation under the terms investment and saving: I = S. The I = S equality is naturally and legitimately interpreted by macroeconomic textbooks almost without exception as the equality between intended investments and intended savings, because the equality ‒ if we accept it ‒ is not only a definitive identity, but generally the outcome of market mechanisms that take time. Keynes’s first critic was Robertson who claimed that “his analysis corresponded to what common-sense proclaims (even to the simple-minded) to be the essence of the matter; namely, the power possessed by the public and by the monetary authority to alter the rates of income flow – the former by putting money into and out of store, the latter by putting it into and out of existence. Thus, in his definition, I = S + (A + B), in which A is new money and B is reactivated idle balances. ” Robertson's comment could have been addressed with a simple correction, and the tool used for funding the expansion of state (public) investments, i.e. the government deficit financed by the creation of new money, is a consistent element of the theoretical framework.

Abstract The current study attempts to move beyond the fashionable scholarly opinion that apocalyptic literature is essentially posed “against empire” by critically analyzing the ideologies evaluated and advanced by the Testament of Moses. The author employs a theoretical framework derived from the work of the Marxist philosopher Louis Althusser to argue that the schematization of history in the Testament of Moses exposes and criticizes the domination of national rulers and foreign rulers, but for different reasons. While ideology is depicted as a strategy of domination used by both types of rulers, repressive physical violence is typically only associated with foreign domination. Yet, the text is not simply “against empire.” Rather, the ideology of the Testament of Moses is primarily opposed to the priestly ruling class of Judaea, the group thought to be responsible for the socioeconomic hardships experienced by the Judaean masses in the early first century C.E.

The study’s theoretical framework is explicated in this chapter. The chapter draws on the international relations, gender and politics, public administration, and African studies literatures to develop a framework that explains implementation at the national and street levels. It shows that an interplay of external and domestic factors shape implementation but specifies that domestic actors and conditions become more essential at the institutionalization stage. While high international pressure is sufficient for the creation of specialized mechanisms, domestic pressure and conditions become more important at the institutionalization state. Thus, low domestic pressure and unfavorable political and institutional conditions hinder implementation, even when combined with high international pressure.

This chapter examines the creation of new orders at the beginning of the twentieth century, which was the culmination of a prolonged period of “unprecedented honorific inventiveness” starting in the late nineteenth century. In Britain the new Order of the British Empire was branded the “Order of Britain’s Democracy” in recognition of the fact that it extended far deeper into non-elite classes in British society than any previous honour. Between 1917 and 1921 more than 20,000 people in Britain and throughout the British Empire were added to this new Order. This was an unprecedented number, orders of magnitude larger than honours lists in previous years. While the new Order was successful in reaching a wider, more middle-class audience than the honours system before the war, which was socially narrow, there was a substantial backlash to what was widely perceived by elites to be an excessive (and diluting) opening-up of the “fount of honour.” This backlash was connected to political controversies about the sale of honours that eventually helped bring about Lloyd George’s downfall. This chapter also contains a brief description of all the components of the British honours system at the beginning of the twentieth century.

Although neoliberalism is widely recognized as the central political-ideological project of twenty-first-century capitalism, it is a term that is seldom uttered by those in power. Behind this particular ruse lies a deeply disturbing, even hellish, reality. Neoliberalism can be defined as an integrated ruling-class political-ideological project, associated with the rise of monopoly-finance capital, the principal strategic aim of which is to embed the state in capitalist market relations. Hence, the state's traditional role in safeguarding social reproduction—if largely on capitalist-class terms—is now reduced solely to one of promoting capitalist reproduction. The goal is nothing less than the creation of an absolute capitalism. All of this serves to heighten the extreme human and ecological destructiveness that characterizes our time.
