AbstractRelations between the state and labour NGOs in China have been particularly fraught. In 2012, they took an interesting turn when some local governments made overtures to labour NGOs to cooperate in providing services to migrant workers. This article argues that this shift is part of a broader strategy of “welfarist incorporation” to redraw the social contract between state and labour. There are two key elements to this strategy: first, a relaxation of the registration regulations for social organizations, and second, governmental purchasing of services from social organizations. These overtures have both a state and market logic to maintain social control and stabilize relations of production.

Drawing theoretical insight from political sociology's state-society literature and organizational theory's new institutionalism, I examine the case of the Mississippi State Sovereignty Commission and its relationship with the Citizens' Council to illustrate that the state-countermovement relationship can be highly variable-much more so than the existing literature often assumes. As different actors came to occupy positions of power within the state of Mississippi, they responded differently to relevant audiences and affected the degree to which the council could exercise leverage with the commission to control protest. The analysis focuses on how the state-countermovement ties of ideology and funding changed over time, even though membership overlap between the commission board and the council remained relatively constant. Three relational structures-frustrated, aligned, and stifled-are identified and discussed as influencing the degree to which the council could gain leverage in Mississippi's multilevel state structure where multiple audiences mattered.

Resumo: O artigo analisa o modelo de saúde previsto na Política Nacional de Atenção à Saúde dos Povos Indígenas e a participação do povo Canela diante dos saberes tradicionais da própria comunidade e os serviços biomédicos oferecidos. Aponta que a participação Canela tem se dado através da atuação dos agentes indígenas de saúde e por meio do controle social dos conselhos local e distrital de saúde indígena. Desta forma, tais agentes têm atuado como meros auxiliares dos técnicos biomédicos, sem que haja uma articulação com os saberes indígenas outrora vigentes nas aldeias. Ademais, a representação nos conselhos local e distrital expressa uma violência simbólica por parte do Estado, pois a delegação do poder dada aos Canelas destina-se a uma parcela mínima, e tal fato não se constitui uma prática na aldeia, tendo em vista que as decisões são tomadas, contando com a participação de todos os membros e não de uma parcela irrisória como o Estado determina.Constata que, na implementação da atual política, não tem ocorrido o reconhecimento à especificidade dos povos indígenas frente aos saberes tradicionais. Desta forma, é necessária a construção e promoção de ações específicas e diferenciadas de saúde, que visem o respeito aos aspectos socioculturais desse povo.Palavras chave: Participação indígena, controle social, saberes indígenas.CHALLENGES FOR CANELA’S PARTICIPATION IN THE INDIGENOUS HEALTHAbstract: The health model provided in the Política Nacional de Atenção à Saúde dos Povos Indígenas (National Policy for the Indigenous People Health) and the participation of the Canela’s people with relation to traditional knowledge of the community and the biomedical services offered was analyzed in this paper. Points out that Canela’s participation has been given through the indigenous health agents and through the social control of local and district councils of indigenous health. Thus, these agents have acted as mere auxiliaries of biomedical technicians, without an articulation with indigenous knowledge formerly existing in the villages. Moreover, the representation in local and district councils expresses a symbolic violence by the state, because the delegation of power given to Canelas is intended to a minimum portion and this fact does not constitute a practice in the village, once the decisions are taken with the participation of all members, not an insignificant amount as the State determines. States that, in the implementation of the current policy has not occurred the recognition of indigenous specificity compared to traditional knowledge. So, it is necessary the construction and promotion of specific and differentiated health actions, which aim to respect the sociocultural aspects of this people.Key words: Indigenous participation, social control, indigenous knowledge.

Adam Smith's engagement with China and Tartary is a central yet underappreciated element of his economic and political thought. This article reconstructs this engagement and demonstrates its broader significance, arguing that it focuses on three themes: the economic institutions that promote domestic growth in a manner that alleviates the material conditions of the poorest, the social and political conditions that minimize the dependence of the poor on the wealthy, and the ethical values and civic institutions that guarantee the existential survival of the state. This treatment is significant for three reasons: It offers useful insight into the contested issue of Smith's conception of legitimate state action; it clarifies Smith's vision of a commercial order that promotes human dignity; and it reveals the depth of his participation in a specific contextual debate.

ABSTRACT Objective: to analyze the contribution of nurses to the construction of health policy in the state of Bahia, from 1925 to 1930. Methods: qualitative research, from a historical nature. Data were retrieved from five public archives, organized in a documentary corpus, and analyzed based on the health political analysis and the social control concepts, health policy and public health. Results: from 1925 to 1930, the State seized the work of the woman/nurse and established it in public health. This fact enabled the nurse’s contribution to the construction of the health policy of the state of Bahia, which took place by the implementation of sanitary education actions, home visits and hygienic surveillance. Final considerations: the female nurse’s work made the health policy of the state of Bahia viable and was an ideal instrument to access homes and instruct/advise people in their daily lives to adopt behaviors that prevent the occurrence and, above all, the spread of diseases.

The article is focused on the research of social control and functioning of total institutions in the social control policy in the Postmodern society. Topicality. The relevance of this study is explained with qualitatively new trends in the development of the Postmodern society, where criminal justice is increasingly ceasing to be actually classical justice in the traditional sense, and is increasingly manifesting itself as a purely political tool. In the paper, the author departs from the traditional approach to social control, which in the light of classical views is carried out by society on the "deviant". Results. The author postulates that in the new coordinate system of Postmodern society number of deviants expands due to potential (sometimes even simply declared) deviants. The key categories of protection of society are not "crime" and "just and lawful punishment" but deeper and penetrating social control over much larger groups with the help of formally independent institutions. The above process is characterized by the fact that clear boundaries between such closed total institutions and non-institutional applications are blurring. The boundaries between the above-mentioned "honest citizens" and "deviants" (even criminals) are also blurring. It has been found that in modern conditions, society no longer exercises social control, but social control over society by the state and even private entities that have national or even transnational power. Conclusion. The article concludes that in the Postmodern society, punishment and other forms of social control are devoid of traditional goals (including "correction" or "re-education" of deviants). Society ceases to be a subject of social control and becomes its object, exposed to net-widening processes, as a result of which the Posmodern society acquires the characteristics of a carceral society, where national social control systems (including total institutions) become more mobile and acquire qualitatively new forms, significance and significance.

This chapter explores the ways in which the social and political conditions prevailing in the two decades after Finland had gained independence from Russia in December 1917 can be traced in Jylhä’s translation of Paradise Lost, Kadotettu paratiisi (1933). Jylhä was too young to participate in the civil war of 1918, but he was caught up in some of the fiercest fighting of the brief conflict. In the 1920s and 1930s many young artists consciously worked to move Finnish culture and politics away from Russian influence, towards Western Europe. Jylhä, a rising poet, was one of the youngest writers of this group, and his translations of European poetry are part of this effort. This chapter traces how lexical choices in his monumental translation of Milton’s epic, especially the War in Heaven, reveal his experience of his social and political milieu.
