Cultura E Política No Brasil Atual CULTURA E POLÍTICA NO BRASIL ATUAL Antonio Albino Canelas Rubim e Márcio Tavares (organizadores) Carlos Paiva • Céli Regina Jardim Pinto • Christiane Ramírez • Eliane Costa • Gaudêncio Fidelis • Jackson Raymundo • João Guerreiro • João Roberto Peixe • Leandro Colling • Lia Calabre • Marcia Sant’anna • Marcia Tiburi • Márcio Meira • Miguel Jost • Sérgio Mamberti • Tony Teófilo • Valter Pomar • Venício A. de Lima O livro Cultura e Política no Brasil atual nos apresenta análises da situação do país a partir do Golpe de 2016, com as faces da tirania, do fascismo e do retrocesso político e social. Encontramo-nos em um momento no qual lutamos novamente pela democracia, pela liberdade de expressão artística e pelos direitos e garantias individuais. Lutamos pela identidade característica de um povo bravio e lutador, batalhamos pela estrutura do Estado com o dever de garantir e defender a soberania do povo brasileiro e do nosso território. Para conhecer nossa história é preciso desbravar o Brasil quilombola e a cul- tura popular, os conhecimentos dos povos originários, a construção social do nosso país. Transitar no encanto do cinema e da literatura, com os poemas e contos, histórias e memórias, identificar em cada traço, em cada cena, em cada nota, um pedaço do nosso país. Tratar de cultura e política é celebrar o conhe- cimento, a criação, as artes, os fazeres, as expressões, os traços, as cantigas, a música, o artesanato, a dança, a moda, o design, o teatro e a existência. Em um momento de tantos desafios, nós temos o dever e a missão de defender o Brasil Indígena, o Brasil Amazônico, o Brasil das Fronteiras, os Pampas, o Pantanal, a Caatinga, o Cerrado, a Mata Atlântica, características de um país em construção e fusão. É aprender com as florestas, que possuem sua própria cultura desenhada pelos rios, pelas matas, pelo mar, pelos animais e pelos povos guardiões que, na terra e com o céu, encontram seus modos de vida e selam o fazer cultural brasileiro. São tantos saberes, tanta arte, tantas expressões, heranças e ancestralidade, tantos artistas, tantas profissões e fazeres de um Brasil em permanente desco- berta, que passamos a compreender que a cultura é o pilar para o desenvolvi- mento social, econômico e cidadão. A cultura somada à educação, à saúde e à reestruturação sanitária do país possibilitará o avanço social tão esperado. Devemos proteger nossa cultura e defender os direitos culturais, nosso patri- mônio histórico, princípios fundamentais garantidos pelo Estado Democrático de Direito. Afirmar a cada passo e se posicionar diariamente para a construção de uma sociedade mais igualitária, mais justa, antirracista, solidária e livre. Sim, nós podemos transformar o mundo em que vivemos, podemos garantir a soberania como nação, pois cultura é o que somos. Cultura é vida!

Contaminou milhões, matou quase um mi- lhão e meio de pessoas e paralisou cidades e países. Cenas inusitadas de espa- ços urbanos desertos invadiram as telas. A pandemia causou imenso impacto na vida dos seres humanos: desemprego, fome, doenças físicas, transtornos emocionais e mentais, angústias, medo, isolamento e ampliou as interações e os espaços em rede: trabalho remoto, ensino a distância e reuniões virtuais. Suas ambiguidades, contradições e tensões deixaram uma certeza: a incapaci- dade do mercado neoliberal em substituir os estados no cuidado do bem-estar da parcela da população que mais sofre com a pandemia. No Brasil, a pandemia se une com o pandemônio, ocasionado pelo gover- no nacional, que combina inúmeras crises: econômica, anterior à pandemia, com sua tentativa de implantar um (ultra)neoliberalismo, que destrói direitos e não produz nenhum desenvolvimento; ambiental, com recordes de desma- tamento, incêndios e outros desastres ecológicos; social, com um dos maiores índices de desemprego na história do país e o aumento da violência contra mulheres, negros, comunidades LGBTIQ+, povos originários, pobres, sem- -terra, sem-teto etc.; política, com a presença das milícias nas cenas políticas 8 Cultura e política no Brasil atual nacional, estaduais e municipais; ética, por meio da ampliação dos privilégios e da corrupção; nacional, com a degradação da soberania nacional e a sub- missão vergonhosa do país aos Estados Unidos; e cultural, com ataques às liberdades de criação e expressão, retorno da censura, agressões aos criadores culturais e asfixia deliberada da cultura, das artes, das ciências, da educação e das universidades públicas. A combinação entre pandemia e pandemônio impõe um cenário de grande complexidade, que exige uma atuação política resiliente, persistente e imaginativa, propondo modos de luta e programas de atuação capazes de enfrentar e superar a gravidade da situação atual.

OPUS DEi AND ITS ARRIVAL IN AUSTRALIA AND NEW ZEALAND • A thesis presented in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Philosophy in Religious Studies at Massey University. Marina Middelplaats 2001 Some biographers of saints have in the past been interested only in highlighting extraordinary things in the lives of God's serv­ ants, from even their earliest days in the cradle. They have, unintentionally perhaps, done a disservice to christian truth. They even said of some of them that as babies they did not cry, nor drink their mother's mi lk on Fridays, out of a spirit of pen­ ance. You and I came into this world crying our heads off, and we most assuredly drank our milk in total disregard for fasts and ember days. -Josemaria Escriva de Balaguer, Christ is Passing By, 1974:26.

    OPUS DEI (Prelature of the Holy Cross and Opus Dei, simply) OPUS DEI (Prelature of the Holy Cross and Opus Dei, simply) OPUS DEI (Prelature of the Holy Cross and Opus Dei, simply). Opus Dei is an institution of the Catholic Church whose mission is to put into practice the doctrine of the universal call to holiness and to promote among people of all social classes the sanctification of professional work in the circumstances of ordinary life. Its legal status is that of a personal prelature, the Prelature of the Holy Cross and Opus Dei or simply Opus Dei. In other words, it is a universal hierarchical institution of the prelature type, as provided for in the Second Vatican Council, established to undertake special pastoral tasks and endowed with its own statutes. Through the Priestly Society of the Holy Cross, an association of clerics intrinsically linked to the prelature, it helps diocesan priests live the doctrine of the universal call to holiness in the exercise of their holy ministry.

  • Manżelství – Cesta Ke Svatosti
    Vítám tuto knihu, která v řadě medailonů ukazuje sku- tečné rodiny z nedávné doby, které v různých prostředích 40 a různých situacích dovedly jít po svaté cestě. Žádný z těch manželských párů není možné kopírovat. Každý z nich však může inspirovat. A.M.I.M.S. M. A.M.I.M.S. M. Mons. Jan Graubner Původně jsem hledala příklady pro laiky žijící v manželství, pro duchovní obnovy a později začal vycházet seriál Man- želství – cesta ke svatosti v časopise Rodinný život. Reakce mne přesvědčily, že je dobré dát lidem příklady manželů elé 20. století z moderní doby. V knize jsou zahrnuty jak manželské páry, ž tak jednotliví manželé, manželky – kandidáti svatosti. Ča- sové období je rok úmrtí 1950 a dále. Občas jsem udělala vatí man výjimku. Za každým medailonem jsou otázky či podněty S • k možnému přemýšlení, rozjímání, ideálně i společnému. Možná je nebudete potřebovat a položíte si jiné. V kaž- dém případě v životech svatých nejde jen o informace jako o fakta, ale mělo by jít o „in-formace“, o to, co do nás vstoupí a formuje nás.

  • The Work of God: an Ethnography of Opus Dei
    THE WORK OF GOD: AN ETHNOGRAPHY OF OPUS DEI Przemysław Pi ątkowski A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Management Studies Department of Accounting, Finance & Management University of Essex July 2009 2 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS At the still point of the turning world. Neither flesh nor fleshless; Neither from nor towards; at the still point, there the dance is (...). Shall I say it again? In order to arrive there, To arrive where you are, to get from where you are not, You must go by a way wherein there is no ecstasy. T.S. Eliot, The Four Quartets No evil shall befall you, no affliction come near your tent. For God commands the angels to guard you in all your ways. With their hands they shall support you, lest you strike your foot against a stone. Psalm 91:10-12 I would like to thank all those who guarded me on my way. First and foremost, I would like to thank my family: my mother Maria, my father Stanisław, my sisters Zofia and Joanna, my grandmother Janina, my brothers: Rafał (cousin) and Jarosław (in-law), and, of course, my three lovely little nieces: Maria, Jadwiga, and Janina. I would like to thank my supervisors, Heather Höpfl and Monika Kostera, but I honestly don’t know how. Each in her very distinctive ways, you have opened up new worlds in front of me. You also let me into your lives and entered mine. It simply cannot stop here, I sincerely hope that we will stay in these relations “until death do us apart” and later.

  • “Une Messe Est Possible”: the Imbroglio of the Catholic Church in Contemporary Latin Europe
    Center for European Studies Working Paper No. 113 “Une Messe est Possible”: The Imbroglio of the Catholic Church 1 in Contemporary Latin Europe by Paul Christopher Manuel Margaret Mott [email protected] [email protected] Paul Christopher Manuel is Affiliate and Co-Chair, Iberian Study Group, Center for European Studies, Har- vard University and Professor and Chair, Department of Politics, Saint Anselm College. Margaret Mott is Assistant Professor of Political Science at Marlboro College. ABSTRACT Throughout the contemporary period, the Church-State relationship in the nation-states of France, Italy, Spain and Portugal – which we will refer to as Latin Europe in this paper – has been a lively source of political conflict and societal cleavage, both on epistemological, and ontological grounds. Epistemological, in that the person living in Latin Europe has to decide whether his world view will be religious or secular; ontological, in that his mortality has kept some sense of the Catholic religion close to his heart and soul at the critical moments of his human reality. Secular views tend to define the European during ordinary periods of life, (“métro boulot dodo,”) while religious beliefs surge during the extraordinary times of life (birth, marriage, death,) as well as during the traditional ceremonial times (Christmas, Easter). This paper will approach the ques- tion on the role of the Catholic church in contemporary Latin Europe by first proposing three models of church-state relations in the region and their historical development, then looking at the role of the Vatican, followed by an examination of some recent Eurobarometer data on the views of contemporary Catholics in each country, and finishing with an analysis of selected public pol- icy issues in each country.

  • Father José Luis Múzquiz and the Beginnings of Opus Dei in the United States, 1949–1961 Federico M
    “We find our sanctity in the middle of the world”: Father José Luis Múzquiz and the Beginnings of Opus Dei in the United States, 1949–1961 Federico M. Requena* Servant of God Father José Luis Múzquiz de Miguel helped found and con- solidate Opus Dei in the United States between 1949 and 1961. Having worked closely with Opus Dei’s founder, St. Josemaría Escrivá, during the 1930s and 1940s in Spain, Múzquiz was prepared to introduce Opus Dei in the context of 1950s U.S. Catholicism. While showing great fidelity to the foundational charism, Múzquiz strove to “Americanize” Opus Dei. This study of Múzquiz’s role in spreading the message of the universal call to holiness and Opus Dei’s teachings on the sanctification of work and soci- ety highlights continuities and discontinuities between Opus Dei’s message and pre-conciliar U.S. Catholicism. n March 1949, a thirty-six-year-old Spanish priest, José Luis Múzquiz de Miguel, visited Archbishop Samuel A. Stritch (1887–1958) of I 1 Chicago. A few months later, Stritch granted his blessing to Opus Dei, an institution of the Catholic Church emphasizing the call to holiness through the ordinary activities of life. Opus Dei soon began its activities in his diocese.2 Múzquiz (called “Father Joseph” by Americans) spurred Opus *The author wishes to express his gratitude to the Cushwa Center for the Study of Amer- ican Catholicism and in particular to its director, Kathleen Sprows Cummings, for aiding the author’s research of American Catholicism during his year-long residency at the University of Notre Dame, Notre Dame, Indiana.

  • Topic 40: “Our Father Who Art in Heaven”
    TOPIC 40: “OUR FATHER WHO ART IN HEAVEN” 1. Jesus teaches us to turn to God as our Father With the Our Father, Jesus Christ teaches us to turn to God as our Father: “To pray to the Father is to enter into his mystery as he is and as the Son has revealed him to us. ‘The expression God the Father had never been revealed to anyone. When Moses himself asked God who he was, he heard another name. The Father’s name has been revealed to us in the Son, for the name Son implies the new name Father’ (Tertullian, De oratione, 3)” (Catechism 2779). In teaching the Our Father, Jesus reveals to his disciples that they too have been made sharers in his condition as Son. “Through the revelation of this prayer, the disciples discover a special participation for them in divine filiation, which St John was to speak of in the Prologue of his Gospel: ‘To all who received him, who believed in his name, he gave power to become children of God’ (Jn 1:2). So quite rightly, they pray according to his teaching, Our Father.”1 Jesus Christ always distinguishes between “my Father” and “your Father” (cf. Jn 20:17). In fact, when he prays he never says “our Father.” This shows that his relationship with God is quite special; it is his own relationship and no one else’s. With the Our Father prayer, Jesus wants to make his disciples aware of their condition as sons of God, indicating at the same time the difference between his natural filiation and our divine filiation by adoption, received as a gratuitous gift from God.

  • A Reaction to Sandro Magister's Conjectures on the Liturgy As
    A Reaction to Sandro Magister’s conjectures on the liturgy as celebrated in the Neocatechumenal communities Fr. Neil Xavier O’Donoghue, Ph.D. in Liturgy A story of the Desert Fathers tells of how some monks came to Abba Agathon and accused him of being a fornicator, of being an arrogant man and of always talking nonsense. The elderly monk agreed to all charges, however, when his visitors accused him of being a heretic, he vehemently denied this. When the visitors asked for an explanation of why he refused this last insult and was willing to bear the other calumnies he explained, “The first accusations I take to myself for that is good for my soul. But heresy is separation from God. Now I have no wish to be separated from God” (see Benedicta Ward, The Sayings of the Desert Fathers [Kalamazoo, MI: Cistercian Publications, 1975], 21). Over the years I have read many ridiculous suggestions and criticisms about how the liturgy is celebrated in the Neocatechumenal communities and up until now have not felt compelled to write any rebuttal. However with the furor raised by Sandro Magister in his chiesa blog (hosted by a generally anti‐clerical Italian daily newspaper) and seeing how his theories are being picked up by the main‐stream Catholic media, I felt compelled to write this short reaction in the spirit of Abba Agathon. I have been in the Neocatechumenal Way for more than 25 years and it was through this charism that I discovered my love for the Church and a special love for Catholic liturgy (not to mention my vocation to the ministerial priesthood).
