This paper presents a reflection that is the result of a survey which intended to monitor the works of the Growth Acceleration Program (PAC) in the Metropolitan Region of Rio de Janeiro (RMRJ). After two years of research and from this empirical object, we intend to think the management of Brazilian cities over the past decade in the context of the Lula Government, in particular, whose performance is considered in a discussion about the possibility of a New-Developmentalism, since this government is marked by a strong presence of the state in the construction of economic infrastructure and efforts to combat social inequalities.

ABSTRACT Objectives: to understand the perception of managers of public maternity hospitals in the Metropolitan Region II of the state of Rio de Janeiro regarding obstetric violence and the measures to face it aiming at guaranteeing the quality of care. Method: a descriptive, exploratory study with a qualitative approach, conducted with 16 health managers from five maternity hospitals in Metropolitan Region II in the state of Rio de Janeiro. Data were collected through interviews, applied from May 2017 to May 2018, and submitted to content analysis in the thematic modality. Results: the research pointed out thenon-reception, technocratic principles of childbirth, refusal of the companion, disrespect to humanized practices centered on physiology and the choice of women, the need for health training as a guide for the humanization policy and the management of health units, professional unpreparedness for performance and lack of involvement of professionals with longer service time to modify practices in obstetric care. Thus, the need to break away from obstetric violence at the structural/institutional level was evident in order to guarantee quality care for women. Conclusion: it is the responsibility of the managers to provide training to health professionals regarding performance that respects the scientific evidence, the centrality and the axes of policies and recommendations in the area of sexual and reproductive health, especially to women regarding their autonomy.

This paper aims to expand our understanding of environmental discourses and practices in Brazil pertaining to urban water restoration, by focusing on the interrelations between environmental structure and urban occupation. For this purpose, it examines river and stream environmental restoration proposals within the Iguaçu Project located in Baixada Fluminense, in the state of Rio de Janeiro. The discussion begins with a brief description of the environmental restoration and landscape experience, followed by an exploration of the Baixada Fluminense social and environmental contexts. A program launched by the government is analyzed, emphasizing the development of riverside parks. The paper concludes by arguing that environmental restoration must be culturally specific in order to improve its efficacy.

El documento tiene como objetivo investigar uma versión de la historia de capoeira en la región sur del Río de Janeiro. Para ello, se realizó una encuesta que se estructura a partir de la metodología de la historia oral y las teorías acerca de la memoria. Las fuentes consultadas tienen como base los informes de ocho maestros de capoeira que trabajan en la región investigada. Los informes permiten observar la importancia de un maestro que es poco recordado por la memoria colectiva de los practicantes más nuevos. También es posible inferir que los maestros que optaron por una raíz que demarca identidad resisten las influencias culturales globalizadas, actualmente tienen menos cuotas de poder en el mercado de capoeira en la región.

Throughout the process of redemocratization of Brazil (1980s), social control was synonymous with civil control by the State, aimed at the construction new social projects from an emancipatory, democratic and participative perspective. Starting in the 1990s, the concept became depoliticized from a conservatory and neoliberal perspective, creating channels of instrumental and centralized participation, bureaucratization, and segmentation. This article deals with the problems concerning social control in the scope of the municipal planning of education, focusing on the Monitoring and Social Control Council (MSCC) and the Municipal Education Council (MEC). the study considered 20 (95%) of 21 Municipal Plans of Education (MPEs) of the Metropolitan Region of Rio de Janeiro (MRRJ), aligned with the new National Plan of Education (NPE) to the decennial  2014-2024, and analyzed the role attributed to these collegiate bodies in the sphere of localized social control of education. It is concluded that the MPEs reflect the statements of the NPE regarding social control and the correlated bodies (MSCC and MEC), but in a fragmented and sparse way, due to the relatively small the systematic incorporation of these actions and of the Councils roles in the decisions. It is also possible to affirm that these results express a continuation of a prescriptive failure that has lasted since the previous decennial planning (2001-2011), since these plans did not attribute a highlighted place to the Councils, thus weakening the systematic social control of education at the municipal, intermunicipal, and metropolitan planning levels.

Abstract This article looks to explore the analytic consequences of thinking about the urban peripheries of Rio de Janeiro not from the perspective of the city itself, capital of the State, but from the Baixada Fluminense, a cluster of cities in its Metropolitan Region. To do so, I suggest an analysis of the ‘pacification apparatus’: a set of discourses, practices and imaginations linked to the pacification policy as a public security project, but transcending the latter by articulating state, religious, cultural and media actors. The empirical material discussed in this article concerns the case of a partnership between a UPP in the city of Rio and a church from Baixada Fluminense. The conclusions reached suggest that Baixada Fluminense, despite its intrinsic relationship with the capital of Rio de Janeiro and its public problems, has its own processes, formulates specific territorial regimes, and influences the processes that take place in the Rio metropolis by producing borders with it, and through it.

Background and context: Childhood cancer has low incidence, but it's 1st cause of death by disease from 1-19 years in Brazil. Given the lack of preventive measures, access to early diagnosis and treatment are important control actions. Aim: Elaboration of an advocacy tool based on consolidated data of incidence, mortality and morbidity of childhood cancer in Brazil. Strategy/Tactics: Collaborative work process with specialists: 1) evaluation of previous material, databases, available publications and the public ordinances and norms; 2) extraction and analysis of information, providing contextualized and commented content; 3) disclosure: it's launched annually to celebrate National Childhood Cancer Day, in social networks, media, and also presented at meetings, lectures and congresses for key stakeholders (print and electronic format). Program/Policy process: Consulted sources in 2017 were: national census, national registry of health facilities, mortality information system, cancer mortality atlas, hospital-based cancer registry (HBCR) system, and materials from national institute of cancer and IARC. It's estimated 630 new cases/year for the state of Rio de Janeiro (SRJ), 390 in the metropolitan region and 250 in the capital. Incidence rates in the world, Brazil and SRJ per million were: 140.6; 126.5 and 132 within ages from 0-14 and 185.3; 157.2 and 166 for ages 15-19. The classification of tumor types in Brazil, SRJ and capital were, respectively: 40%, 41% and 39% of nonsolid tumors; 43%, 59% and 61% of solid tumors (from which 28%, 24% and 29% are solid tumors of central nervous system). Total deaths per childhood cancer/week is 1540 in the world, 55 in Brazil and 4 in SRJ, being 2nd cause of death (behind external causes) and 1st cause of death due to illness (7.6%) within ages of 1-19 in Brazil. Authorized hospitals for childhood cancer treatment: 77 units in Brazil and 7 in SRJ, of which 70 and 6 have HBCR, respectively. Only 14 Brazilian units and 1 in ERJ treat a median of > 100 new cases/year. In SRJ, 75% of diagnosed cases started treatment within 15 days, and 15% of adolescents are treated with adults. What was learned: It's needed more involvement of pediatric oncologists and managers in analyzing information and its use in decision making, since many don't use existing databases routinely. Another challenge is to return information to those who register it, and thus help in understanding the working process to qualify and value it through appropriate strategies. Collective construction of consolidated information is an important advocacy tool for health practitioners, managers and even general public: it facilitates understanding the pediatric oncology scenario and exposes opportunities for improvement to deal with incomplete or low-skilled information. Ultimately, it allows and stimulates social control of the entire society, and can be used as support for the planning and alignment of public policies to local problems.[Figure: see text][Figure: see text][Figure: see text]

O presente trabalho busca representar os casos, óbitos e taxas de letalidade do COVID-19 em regiões de governo do Estado do Rio de Janeiro por anamorfismo. A técnica de anamorfismo consiste na construção de cartogramas que deformam os limites substituindo as escalas métricas por escalas fracionais. O objetivo do trabalho é analisar a distribuição do COVID-19 ao longo dos meses de abril a agosto de 2020, utilizando o ScapeToad para essas representações. ScapeToad é um software livre, que permite a criação de mapas anamórficos, também chamados de cartogramas. A metodologia aplicada foi a disseminação da doença nos municípios do Estado com os números absolutos de casos confirmados, óbitos e a taxa de letalidade confrontada com a estimativa populacional indicada pelo IBGE. Os resultados mostraram que a disseminação dos dados começou na Região Metropolitana e avançou pelas maiorescidades do interior.

O artigo apresenta um estudo sobre a desativação e a extinção de escolas do campo situadas no Município de Cachoeiras de Macacu (região metropolitana do Estado do Rio de Janeiro), enfocando também o impacto do projeto de construção da barragem do Rio Guapiaçu nesse processo. Os dados analisados demonstram que na região rural de Cachoeiras de Macacu, entre 1983 e 2016, foram desativadas ou extintas 35 escolas, dentre as quais 8 estaduais e 27 municipais ou municipalizadas. Partindo da discussão sobre a mudança do perfil populacional e a perimetropolização do município, analisamos o contexto em que se processa a desruralização escolar. Constatamos que o transporte dos estudantes para áreas urbanas configura uma estratégia administrativa de “otimização” escolar e que o projeto da barragem do Rio Guapiaçu acentuou essa orientação na região da Serra Queimada. Considerando que “a identidade da escola do campo é definida pela sua vinculação às questões inerentes à sua realidade” (Brasil, 2012), entendemos que o fechamento de escolas do campo assinala a invisibilização das populações campesinas, cujos saberes e modos de vida são tomados como inexistentes. Dessa forma, elas são radicalmente excluídas da sociedade civil (Santos, 2007).

This paper presents a study about the deactivation and the extinction of rural schools located in the municipality of Cachoeiras de Macacu (Rio de Janeiro State Metropolitan Region), focusing on the impact of the construction of the Guapiaçu River dam in this process. The data analyzed show that in the rural region of Cachoeiras de Macacu, between 1983 and 2016, 35 schools were deactivated or extinguished, of which 8 were administered by the state and 27 by the municipality. Starting from the discussion of the changing of the population profile and the perimetropolization of the municipality, we analyze the school desruralization process. We noticed that the transportation of students to urban areas constitutes an administrative strategy for school “optimization” and that the Guapiaçu River dam project accentuated this orientation in the Serra Queimada region. Considering that "the identity of the rural school is defined by its connection with the issues inherent to its reality" (Brazil, 2012), we understand that the closure of rural schools indicates the invisibility of peasant populations, whose knowledge and way of life are taken as nonexistent. In this way, they are radically excluded from civil society (Santos, 2007).

At the end of the twentieth century, questions of a secondary nature suddenly became topical: what do we remember and who owns the memory? Memory as one of the mental characteristics of an individual’s activity is complemented by the concept of collective memory, which requires a different method of analysis than the activity of a separate individual. In the 1970s, a situation arose that gave rise to the so-called "historical politics" or "memory politics." If philosophical studies of memory problems of the 30’s and 40’s of the twentieth century were focused mainly on the peculiarities of perception of the past in the individual and collective consciousness and did not go beyond scientific discussions, then half a century later the situation has changed dramatically. The problem of memory has found its political sound: historians and sociologists, politicians and representatives of the media have entered the discourse on memory. Modern society, including all social, ethnic and family groups, has undergone a profound change in the traditional attitude towards the past, which has been associated with changes in the structure of government. In connection with the discrediting of the Soviet Union, the rapid decline of the Communist Party and its ideology, there was a collapse of Marxism, which provided for a certain model of time and history. The end of the revolutionary idea, a powerful vector that indicated the direction of historical time into the future, inevitably led to a rapid change in perception of the past. Three models of the future, which, according to Pierre Nora, defined the face of the past (the future as a restoration of the past, the future as progress and the future as a revolution) that existed until recently, have now lost their relevance. Today, absolute uncertainty hangs over the future. The inability to predict the future poses certain challenges to the present. The end of any teleology of history imposes on the present a debt of memory. Features of the life of memory, the specifics of its state and functioning directly affect the state of identity, both personal and collective. Distortion of memory, its incorrect work, and its ideological manipulation can give rise to an identity crisis. The memorial phenomenon is a certain political resource in a situation of severe socio-political breaks and changes. In the conditions of the economic crisis and in the absence of a real and clear program for future development, the state often seeks to turn memory into the main element of national consolidation.
