O governo das diferenças e a potência da vida surda na escola Resumo: É urgente afirmar a surdez como acontecimento ontológico, produtor de diferenças, as quais se materializam no corpo dos (variados) sujeitos surdos. O artigo objetiva produzir uma análise filosófica da surdez-acontecimento, fazendo um paralelo entre a ação das políticas educacionais (normalizadoras) e a micro relação do cotidiano escolar, pelo movimento de resistência das pessoas surdas às políticas igualitárias. O conceito de governamentalidade, desenvolvido por Michel Foucault, é fundamental para essa reflexão, apontando dois movimentos nas práticas inclusivas: o primeiro, agenciado na pauta da diversidade, com foco em práticas igualitárias e o segundo movimento, produzido na lógica da diferença. Propõe-se anunciar a surdez não apenas pela diferença, linguístico-cultural, mas como efeito de uma diferença ontológica espalhada no corpo social por fluxos ramificados, em movimentos intensivos, minando internamente os sujeitos e por eles, as variadas instituições. É a prática rasteira da contra-ação desse “ser” surdo às ações normalizadoras que interessa aqui ressaltar. Palavras-chave: Educação de surdos. Políticas inclusivas. Diferenças.  Apoio e financimento da pesquisa: FAPESP e à CAPES  Government of differences and the power of deaf life in school Abstract: It is urgent to affirm deafness as an ontological event, producer of differences, which materialize in the body of (varied) deaf subjects. The article aims to produce a philosophical analysis of deafness-event, making a parallel between the action of educational policies (normalizing) and the micro relationship of school daily, by the movement of resistance of deaf people to egalitarian policies. The concept of governmentality, developed by Michel Foucault, is fundamental to this reflection, pointing out two movements in inclusive practices: the first, guided by the diversity agenda, focusing on egalitarian practices and the second movement, produced in the logic of difference. It is proposed to announce deafness not only by linguistic-cultural difference, but as the effect of an ontological difference spread in the social body by branched flows, intensive movements, internally undermining the subjects and by them the various institutions. It is the low practice of counteracting this deaf “being” to normalizing actions that is of interest here. Keywords: Deaf education. Inclusive policies. Differences.

This analytical and qualitative study aimed to identify how workers in the Family Health Strategy perceive the risks they are exposed to at work. Thematic analysis and the reference framework of the work process were used to examine the contents of interviews with 48 subjects (community health agents, nurses, nursing auxiliaries and physicians). The workers noticed the following risks: physical and moral violence, typical work accident, emotional exhaustion, lack of problem-solving ability and occupational disease. The results predominantly show the connection with the object / subject of the work and the social environmental characteristics of the related communities. The study adds to the body of knowledge and can systemize collective and individual technological processes for occupational health risk management in primary health care.

In the modern science, the body is an object of interest not only to the natural science and medicine, but also the humanities. Of special interest, in particular, for the medical discourse, is the ethnic body experience. The paper reveals features of the body experience in the east-slavonic culture from the analysis of the mythological tradition. This experience is characterized by the pronounced interest and ambivalent attitude to the body’s life, natural body standards; and emotional intensity. The experience of the social body is of highest priority in the culture.

As in the Middle Ages in the West, so in Tokugawa Japan (1600–1868) men were fond of explaining the hierarchical society in which they lived by comparing it to an organism. Social classes, Confucian scholars said, were like parts of the body: each had a vital function to perform, but their functions were essentially different and unequal in value. In this scheme the peasants were second in importance only to the ruling military class. Just as the samurai officials were the brains that guided other organs, so the peasants were the feet that held the social body erect. They were the “basis of the country,” the valued producers whose labor sustained all else. But, as a class, they tended innately to backsliding and extravagance. Left alone they would consume more than their share of the social income, ape the manners and tastes of their betters, and even encroach upon the functions of other classes to the perilous neglect of their own. Only the lash of necessity and the sharp eye of the official could hold them to their disagreeable role. They had to be bound to the land; social distinctions had to be thrown up around them like so many physical barriers; and, to remove all temptation to indolence and luxury, they had to be left only enough of what they produced to let them continue producing.

This chapter distinguishes Foucault’s approach from the work of Anglo-Foucauldian scholars. The latter adopted a microsocial perspective, focused on the programmes and rationalities of government that work across multiple alliances between different actors, and argued for bottom-up civil society responsibilization. Foucault was not only state-phobic but also suspicious of political action based on civil society. His theoretical interests shifted from the micro-physics of disciplinary society and its anatomo-politics of the body to the more general strategic codification of a plurality of discourses, practices, technologies of power, and institutional ensembles around a specific governmental rationality concerned with the social body (bio-power) in a consolidated capitalist society. This is reflected in the statification of government and the governmentalization of the state. This led to his analyses of sovereignty, territorial statehood, and state power and the role of civil society in this regard and to less well-substantiated claims about their articulation to the logic of capital accumulation.

ResumenLa migración internacional, indocumentada, de corto o a largo plazo, genera entre los que se van (padres migrantes) y los que se quedan (esposa e hijos/as) un reacomodo forzado en los ví­nculos familiares; sobre todo se presenta cierta vulnerabilidad emocional y corporal que se articula con extrañamientos, con ausencias y/o presencias, con rupturas, temores, conflictos que afectan la dinámica de la familia. Las emociones son parte de la condición humana y tienen, hasta cierto punto, un curso libre en la vida del sujeto; pero una persona vulnerable a emociones recurrentes de tristeza, enojo, miedo o ansiedad, provocadas por la insatisfacción, por la desesperanza, será candidata a que dichas emociones se instalen en el cuerpo y presenten trastornos psicosomáticos severos. Este estudio cualitativo tiene el propósito de explicar la vulnerabilidad emocional y los trastornos psicosomáticos en parejas mujeres e hijos/as de migrantes de una comunidad rural de la región del Valle del Mezquital, Hidalgo, México. Se utilizó un cuestionario para conocer la realidad socioeconómica de la población y la entrevista semiestructurada. Algunos resultados obtenidos en las parejas son: tristeza, enojo y miedo como emociones recurrentes que se vinculan con la incertidumbre de su relación conyugal, un sentimiento de abandono permanente. Mujeres con dolores de cabeza y colitis nerviosa. En los hijos/ as: trastornos gastrointestinales, enojo permanente con el padre migrante, afrentas con los cuidadores (abuelas, tí­as, primos).Palabras clave: migración, emociones, trastorno psicosomático, enlaces familiares. AbstractInternational Migration, undocumented, form short to long term, it generates among those who leave (migrant parents) and those who stay (wife and children) a forced rearrangement on family ties; mainly it occurs some emotional and corporal vulnerability which is linked to estrangement, absences and/or presences, with fractures, fears, conflicts that affect the dynamic of the family. Emotions are part of human condition and have till certain point a free path in the subject’s life; but in a vulnerable person to recurrent emotions of sadness, anger, fear or anxiety, produced by dissatisfaction, hopelessness, will be a candidate for such emotions to settle in the body and present severe psychosomatic disorders. This qualitative study has the purpose to explain the emotional vulnerability and psychosomatic disorders in couples, women, and children of migrants in a rural community of the El Valle del Mezquital region in Hidalgo, Mexico. A questionnaire was used to know the socioeconomic reality of the population; and a semi-structured interview. Some of the obtained results in couples are: sadness, anger and fear as recurrent emotions that are linked with uncertainty in their marital relationship, a feeling of permanent abandonment. Women with headaches and nervous colitis.
