Os rompimentos das barragens nas bacias do Rio Doce e do Rio Paraopeba, respectivamente em novem­bro de 2015 e janeiro de 2019, para além das 300 mortes resultantes diretamente das duas catástrofes e da assustadora destruição ecológica por elas produzida, desencadearam a produção de um tecido de re­lações jurídico-econômicas de magnitude colossal orbitando em torno do processo de reparação. Para os argumentos apresentados neste artigo, recorre-se a dois instrumentos de análise: a aproximação meta­fórica às características das expressões artísticas distópicas e ao correlato efeito de estranhamento pro­vocado ao público, buscando a partir deles desenvolver argumentos e análises com o objetivo de desna­turalizar processos e práticas jurídicas e econômicas observadas neste contexto. Da mesma forma, bus­camos entender a relação de forças assimétricas dos atores envolvidos, atendo-nos contrastivamente às estratégias corporativas e às situações de resistência, mobilização e engajamento popular no contexto conflitual da luta por reparação integral. Discutimos de que modo as empresas violadoras constituem estratégias de poder que pressionam a desconstituição de saberes e práticas populares nos territórios atingidos e apresentamos a crítica ao uso da forma da violação do direito, oculta nas práticas de planeja­mento destas empresas. Por fim, são analisadas algumas das possibilidades de organização popular no contexto de uma reparação integral, balizadora das lutas mobilizadas contra a naturalização e a legitima­ção, da distópica violência dos desastres-crimes da mineração no Brasil. Palavras-chave: mineração; desastres-crimes; neoextrativismo; atingidos por barragens; reparação de danos.   Abstract The dams bursts in the Doce River and Paraopeba River basins, respectively in November 2015 and January 2019, in addition to the 300 deaths resulting directly from the two catastrophes and the overwhelming ecological destruction they produced, triggered the production of a fabric of legal-economic relations of colossal magnitude orbiting around the reparation process. For the arguments presented in this article, two analysis arguments are used: the metaphorical convergence to the characteristics of dystopian artistic expressions, and the correlated effect of estrangement evoked, seeking to develop further arguments and analyses with the purpose of deconstruct established legal and economic processes and practices observed in this context. Similarly, we seek to understand the asymmetrical power relations of the actors involved, contrasting corporate strategies with situations of resistance, mobilization, and popular engagement in the conflictual context of the struggle for full reparation. We discuss how the violating companies constitute strategies of power that pressure for the deconstitution of popular knowledge and practices in the affected territories, and we present a critique of the use of rights violation hidden in the planning practices of these companies. Finally, some of the possibilities of popular organization in the context of full damage compensation are reviewed, underpinning the struggles mobilized against naturalization and legitimation, of the dystopian violence of the mining disasters-crimes in Brazil. Keywords: mining; disasters crimes; neoextractivism; affected by dams; damage repair.   Tierras devastadas, escenarios distópicos: Violencia y resistencia en desastres-crímenes mineros en Brasil   Resumen Las fallas de las represas en las cuencas de Río Doce y Río Paraopeba, respectivamente, en noviembre de 2015 y enero de 2019, además de las 300 muertes directamente resultantes de las dos catástrofes y la espantosa destrucción ecológica provocada por ellas, desencadenaron la producción de un tejido de re­laciones jurídico-económicas de colosal magnitud en torno al proceso de reparación. Para los argumentos presentados en este artículo, recurrimos a dos instrumentos de análisis: la aproximación metafórica a las características de las expresiones artísticas distópicas y el relacionado efecto de extrañamiento provo­cado en el público, buscando desarrollar argumentos y análisis con el objetivo de desnaturalizar procesos y practicas jurídicas y económicas observadas en este contexto. Asimismo, buscamos comprender la re­lación de fuerzas asimétricas de los actores involucrados, enfocándonos en estrategias corporativas y situaciones de resistencia, movilización y compromiso popular en el contexto conflictivo de la lucha por la reparación integral. Discutimos cómo las empresas violadoras constituyen estrategias de poder que presionan la desconstitución de saberes y prácticas populares en los territorios afectados y presentamos la crítica al uso de la forma de violación del derecho, escondida en las prácticas de planificación de estas empresas. Finalmente, se analizan algunas de las posibilidades de organización popular en el contexto de la reparación integral, que sustenta las luchas movilizadas contra la naturalización y legitimación, de la violencia distópica de los desastres-crímenes mineros en Brasil.

The One

Desde la crisis financiera de 1929, las relaciones económicas entre países vivieron un período de acomodación que afianzó y a la vez generó vínculos bilaterales en la oferta y demanda de mercancías. Simultáneamente al estallido de la crisis, un puerto de ultramar de la región central de la provincia de Buenos Aires en Argentina comenzó a operar como exportador de granos. La pregunta que intentamos responder es cómo interactuaron ambos procesos tanto en la región adyacente al puerto (hinterland) como en el alcance mundial que alcanzaron las exportaciones salidas por él (foreland). Nuestro objetivo es medir y evaluar la adaptación de un puerto y su hinterland a este doble contexto de crisis y apertura internacional. Para alcanzarlo hemos confeccionado una base de datos con los registros del tráfico naviero llevado por la policía portuaria local (la Prefectura Nacional Marítima) y la Aduana de Puerto Quequén, a la que hemos cruzado con otras estadísticas oficiales acerca de la producción en el área y el volumen y tipo de exportaciones extraídas por el puerto. Los resultados obtenidos muestran por un lado una correlación positiva entre la apertura portuaria y el volumen de la producción del hinterland y por otro la conformación de un foreland alternativo al previo a la crisis para la economía del país, el cual implicó un mayor acercamiento a los países de la región. Un foreland segmentado al que remitían con casi exclusividad forrajes (avena y cebada) para los puertos ubicados en Europa y trigo para diversos puertos americanos. La crisis, al menos mirada desde Puerto Quequén, fue oportunidad de redefinición de la producción, de experimentación de circuitos económicos, de integración con la región continental y de reducción de parte de la dependencia tradicional de la demanda europea. Palabras clave: historia, puerto, exportaciones agrícolas,  Gran Depresión, Puerto Quequén.Between the Crisis and a New Port: The Agricultural Exports of the Region of Puerto Quequén during the Great Depression (1929-1939)AbstractFrom the financial crisis of 1929, the economic relations between countries lived a period of accommodation that guaranteed and simultaneously it generated bilateral links in the offer and demand of goods. Simultaneously to the start of the crisis, a port of overseas in the central region of the Buenos Aires province in Argentina began to operate as exporter of grains. The question that we try to answer is how both processes interacted in the adjacent region to the port (hinterland) as well as the world scope of the exports (foreland). Our aim is to measure and to evaluate the adjustment of a port and his hinterland to this double context of crisis and international opening. To reach it we have made a database with the records of the shipping traffic taken by the port local police (the National Maritime Prefecture) and the Customs of Port Quequén, to which we have crossed with other official statistics brings over of the production in the area and the volume and type of exports extracted by the port. The obtained results show on the one hand a positive correlation between the port opening and the volume of the production in the hinterland and for other one the conformation of an alternative foreland to the before one the crisis for the economy of the country, which implied a major approximation to the countries of the region. A segmented foreland, from which it was sent almost in exclusivity, forage (oats and barley) for the ports located in Europe and wheat for diverse American ports. The crises −at least looked from Port Quequén- was an opportunity of redefinition of the production, of experimentation of economic circuits, of integration with the continental region and of reduction on behalf of the traditional dependence of the European demand. Keywords: history, port, agricultural exports, Great Depression, Port Quequén.

Teaching-and-learning Chemistry in the perspective of dialogicand problematizing education AbstractThis paper presents results of a Master’s research in Education that sought to foster processes of teaching and learning Chemistry considering knowledge present in the routine of the students with the objective of problematizing relations of complementarity between scientific knowledge and popular knowledge. The research was anchored in the theoretical-methodological principles of Popular Education and Ethnoscience and was carried out in dialogue with students of a technical course in Chemistry in the city of Jundiaí-SP. As methodological procedures were developed meetings of problematization and planning of educational practices, circles of conversations and participation in a scientific fair. The analysis of the students’ reports revealed their motivation and commitment in the dialogical construction of new knowledge through the connection between scientific and popular knowledge. The dialogical approach of teaching-and-learning Chemistry allowed the questioning of banking educational practices, still deep-rooted in the context of this subject, and raised some reflections about the importance of incorporating generative themes originating from the routine of the students, providing their participation and protagonism in the process of knowledge construction.

Financial Capitalism

In the essay ‘Postscript on the Societies of Control’, Deleuze discusses the differences between nineteenth-century capitalism and contemporary capitalism, characterising the former as the spaces of enclosure and the latter as the open circuits of the bank. In contemporary capitalism, ‘[m]an is no longer man enclosed, but man in debt’ ( Deleuze 1992 : 6). Deleuze claims that under financial capitalism, where the primary use of money is self-generation, economic relations are thought in terms of an asymmetrical power relationship between debtor and creditor, rather than an exchange between commodities. Taking up Deleuze's claim, this paper analyses how time functions in the formation of subjectivity under financial capitalism, by focusing on the temporal structure of debt. The indebted are expected to bind themselves to the past, not only in the moment they make a promise to pay back, but from that moment onwards; in this process, a subject finds himself passively subjected to the temporality determined by the condition of indebtedness, and yet he also actively reproduces and imposes the fact of indebtedness on himself by the feeling of guilt. Guilt, arising from the irreversibility of what has been done and resulting in the inability to proceed into the future, is central both to the indebted and the melancholic. Thus a melancholic subject emerges: a subject conditioned by the dominance of the past and the impossibility of the future.

Agriculture is fundamental for the development of humanity; however, it is necessary to adjust land use planning in order to reconcile agricultural activities with proper soil management practices, thus reducing the impact on the environment. The study aimed to evaluate the land use capacity of the Córrego Maria Comprida-MG sub-basin, located in the Caratinga and Rio Doce river basins. The support of the Geographic Information System (GIS) was used for the framing of the lands according to the system of the capacity of use. The Number of Exceeding Classes (NCE) was evaluated in order to identify conflicts between land use and current land use. It was verified that the sub-basin presents approximately 60% of its land in class VI of the capacity of use and that about half of the study area is being used above its capacity, occupied mainly by pastures. The results proved its importance for planning the rational use of land in the Maria Comprida stream sub-basin.

Em 5 de novembro de 2015, a barragem de rejeitos de minério de ferro conhecida como Barragem de Fundão, de propriedade da Samarco Mining Inc. Company, uma joint venture envolvendo a Vale S. A. e a BHP Billiton Brasil Ltda, desabou no município de Mariana, Minas Gerais. Cerca de 50 milhões de metros cúbicos de resíduos de mineração foram lançados no Rio Doce e transportados por mais de 600 km até sua foz, no Oceano Atlântico. Entre as muitas comunidades profundamente afetadas estão as do povo indígena Krenak, que habitam a margem esquerda do Rio Doce. Com base na descrição histórica e etno­gráfica dos Krenak e dos conflitos que vivenciaram em seu território ao longo dos anos, o artigo analisa como esse povo foi afetado pelo desastre da mineração do rio Doce. Seis anos depois, o desastre preva­lece como um processo constantemente renovado na vida cotidiana das privações a que todos os grupos afetados foram submetidos. Para o Povo Krenak, o Watu é muito mais do que um rio que proporciona alimentação, lazer, água para os animais e irrigação, enfim, um recurso natural para a sobrevivência. É um parente com quem estabelecem relações. Um familiar que acolhe, aconselha, protege e contribui para a construção da pessoa Krenak. Sua perda, portanto, coloca um desafio ao sistema de justiça ocidental: o reconhecimento de direitos que podem ser formulados a partir de outros sistemas de valoração, basea­dos em cosmovisões e ontologias que questionam o alcance das formas de comensurabilidade e tradução impostas pelo mundo ocidental. Palavras-chave: Mineração; Desastres no Rio Doce; Povo indígena Krenak; Territórios Indígenas; Conflitos Ambientais.   Abstract On November 5, 2015, the iron ore tailings dam known as the Fundão Dam, owned by the Samarco Mining Inc. Company, a joint venture involving Vale S. A. and BHP Billiton Brasil Ltda, collapsed in the municipality of Mariana, Minas Gerais. Around 50 million cubic metres of mining waste were released into the Rio Doce and carried for over 600 km to its mouth on the Atlantic Ocean. Among many communities deeply affected are those of the Krenak indigenous people who inhabit the left margins of the Doce River. Based on historical and ethnographic description of the Krenak and the conflicts they have experienced in their territory over the years, the chapter analysis how this people found themselves affected by the Doce River mining disaster. Six years on, the disaster prevails as a process constantly renewed in the everyday life of privations to which all the affected groups have been subjected.  For the Krenak people, the Watu is much more than a river that provides food, leisure, watering for animals and irrigation, a natural resource, in short, for survival. It is a relative with whom they establish relationships. A relative that welcomes, counsels, protects, and contributes to the construction of the Krenak person. Their loss, thus, poses a challenge to the Western justice system: the recognition of rights that can be formulated from other systems of valuation, based on cosmovisions and ontologies that question the reach of the forms of commensurability and translation imposed by the Western world.

System Paradigm

The development of the system paradigm in economic science leads to the formulation of a number of important questions to the political economy as one of the basic directions of economic theory. In this article, on the basis of system introspection, three questions are considered. The first is the relevance of the class approach to the structuring of the socio-economic space; the second is the feasibility of revising the notion of property in the modern world; the third is the validity of the notion of changing formations as the sequence of “slave-owning system — feudal system — capitalist system”. It is shown that in modern society the system approach to the structuring of socio-economic space is more relevant than the class one. Today the classical notion of “property” does not reflect the diversity of production and economic relations in society and should be replaced by the notion of “system property”, which provides a significant expansion of the concepts of “subject of property” and “object of property”. The change of social formations along with the linear component has a more influential cyclic constituent and obeys the system-wide cyclic regularity that reflects the four-cycle sequence of the dominance of one of the subsystems of the macrosystem: project, object, environment and process.
