The city was then living the impacts of the cycle of the national economic crisis in the form of a spiral of unemployment, labor informalization, poverty, growth of favelas, urban decay and violence. The test of neo-liberal policies in the 1990s maintained and intensified in many aspects the framework of this crisis in the city. The evidence of its decline can be synthesized in a few figures: between 1989 and 1997, 22% of industrial companies moved to other regions in the country; in 1970, out of the 50 largest Brazilian banks nine had headquarters in the city, but in 1991 there were only five; Rio de Janeiro Stock Exchange, the oldest in Brazil, moved to São Paulo, joining BOVESPA; in the 1980s and 1990s, the population living in favelas grew at rates of 2.6% and 2.5% per year, while the population living in the city grew just 1.8% and 0.6% per year. It was, therefore, a long cycle of nearly 25 years of a spiral of economic and urban decay, in addition to the corrosion of the social fabric of

  • Medindo O Impacto Das Políticas Públicas No Rio De Janeiro
    Julho 2011 Pesquisa sobre Empreendedorismo em Domicílios em Unidades de Polícia Pacificadora Parceria Empreendedores em Comunidades com UPP – SEBRAE-RJ e IETS _2_ 1. Argumento As Unidades de Polícia Pacificadora (UPP) foram criadas em 2008, por Decreto do Governador Sérgio Cabral Filho, com o objetivo de recuperar para o Estado o papel de agente punitivo único e legítimo em territórios sob o domínio de traficantes de drogas e de armas, devolvendo à população a segurança e tranquilidade nestes territórios. O restabelecimento da vigência da lei, democraticamente consagrada, é premissa para que se estabeleça um novo tipo de relação entre o Estado e as favelas, subordinada aos direitos e garantias fundamentais do cidadão. Nesse sentido, o Governo do Estado do Rio de Janeiro articulou as Secretarias de Segurança e de Assistência Social e Direitos Humanos para estabeleceram juntas as UPP, programa inédito, que articula políticas públicas de segurança com ações de desenvolvimento socioeconômico e ambiental, no longo prazo. Já foram inauguradas dezessete UPP, a primeira no Morro Santa Marta, em Botafogo, em dezembro de 2008, e a mais recente no Morro de São Carlos, que engloba comunidades do Estácio e Rio Comprido, em maio de 2011. O IETS, em 2010, em parceria com a FIRJAN e com a CNSeg , pesquisou as nove primeiras UPP e. Quatro são na Zona Sul: Cantagalo e Pavão-Pavãozinho, Ladeira dos Tabajaras, Babilônia e Chapéu Mangueira e Santa Marta; duas na Zona Oeste: Batan e Cidade de Deus; e uma no Centro, Providência. Em 2011, prepara-se para entrar no campo em mais sete: Borel; Formiga; Turano; Salgueiro; Macacos; São João – Matriz – Quieto e Andaraí, além do Morro Azul, em projeto já iniciado com parceria e financiamento da FIRJAN.

  • Entre Confrontos E Desafios Na Construção Da Legitimidade Popular: Algumas Perspectivas Sobre Os Movimentos De Resistências Em Favelas Do Rio De Janeiro
    ENTRE CONFRONTOS E DESAFIOS NA CONSTRUÇÃO DA LEGITIMIDADE POPULAR: ALGUMAS PERSPECTIVAS SOBRE OS MOVIMENTOS DE RESISTÊNCIAS EM FAVELAS DO RIO DE JANEIRO Nicolas Bautès* Lenise Lima Fernandes** Marcos David Burgos*** RESUMO Este artigo aborda movimentos de resistência protagonizados pelos moradores das favelas Morro da Providência, Rocinha e Morro dos Prazeres, na cidade do Rio de Janeiro. Tais ações se acirraram na última década face ao aprofundamento das contradições inerentes ao capitalismo, quando medidas autoritárias de gestão de conflitos sociais na cidade foram intensificadas como suporte à ofensiva neoliberal, para aumentar a rentabilidade do capital e conter as disputas pelo uso e o controle do espaço urbano. As referências empíricas utilizadas são provenientes, sobretudo, do diálogo entre ativistas de favelas e estudiosos vinculados a propostas de pesquisa e extensão universitárias, que acompanham a luta pela efetivação do direito à cidade junto aos segmentos mais pobres da população. Tal abordagem propiciou a diversidade das fontes e dos métodos utilizados para a coleta das informações necessárias. Palavras-chave: Resistência. Política Urbana. Favelas. Rio de Janeiro. INTRODUÇÃO Aposto que dentro de 15 anos, se as tendências atuais continuarem, todos os morros no Rio de Janeiro agora ocupados por favelas serão cobertos por condomínios com vistas fabulosas sobre a baía idílica, enquanto os antigos moradores da favela terão sido removidos para alguma remota periferia (HARVEY, 2008: 36-37).

  • Kahlil Gibran a Tear and a Smile (1950)
    “perplexity is the beginning of knowledge…” Kahlil Gibran A Tear and A Smile (1950) STYLIN’! SAMBA JOY VERSUS STRUCTURAL PRECISION THE SOCCER CASE STUDIES OF BRAZIL AND GERMANY Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for The Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Susan P. Milby, M.A. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2006 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Melvin Adelman, Adviser Professor William J. Morgan Professor Sarah Fields _______________________________ Adviser College of Education Graduate Program Copyright by Susan P. Milby 2006 ABSTRACT Soccer playing style has not been addressed in detail in the academic literature, as playing style has often been dismissed as the aesthetic element of the game. Brief mention of playing style is considered when discussing national identity and gender. Through a literature research methodology and detailed study of game situations, this dissertation addresses a definitive definition of playing style and details the cultural elements that influence it. A case study analysis of German and Brazilian soccer exemplifies how cultural elements shape, influence, and intersect with playing style. Eight signature elements of playing style are determined: tactics, technique, body image, concept of soccer, values, tradition, ecological and a miscellaneous category. Each of these elements is then extrapolated for Germany and Brazil, setting up a comparative binary. Literature analysis further reinforces this contrasting comparison. Both history of the country and the sport history of the country are necessary determinants when considering style, as style must be historically situated when being discussed in order to avoid stereotypification. Historic time lines of significant German and Brazilian style changes are determined and interpretated.
