Note in Defense of Brazil´S Archaeological Heritage
NOTE IN DEFENSE OF BRAZIL´S ARCHAEOLOGICAL HERITAGE The Society for Brazilian Archeology (SAB) is a private, non-profit, civil association of scientific nature of 40 years, which aims to bring together archaeologists and other specialists dedicated to teaching, researching and practicing archeology and related fields, and to promote knowledge and dissemination of subjects related to archaeology and archaeological heritage. This Friday (05/22), the Society followed the manifestations of the President of the Republic, Jair Messias Bolsonaro, the Minister of the Environment, Ricardo Salles, and the Minister of Education, Abraham Weintraub, during the ministerial meeting held on April 22, 2020 – the very day Brazil was celebrating 520 years of “being discovered” by Portugal –, and was perplexed, especially by manifestations regarding Brazilian Archaeological Heritage. The President of the Republic mentioned archaeological research conducted in compliance of environmental review and cultural resources in such a manner that he demonstrated a complete lack of knowledge about the processes and absolutely no concern about the cultural heritage left by the diverse societies that inhabited the land that we now call Brazil. According to the President “IPHAN stops any construction project in Brazil, as Luciano Hang's was stopped. When there is only a petrified poop of an Indian, they stop the construction, darn it!”. The National Historical and Artistic Heritage Institute (IPHAN), an independent federal agency, now located within the Ministry of Tourism, is responsible for the preservation of the Brazilian Cultural Heritage and, thus, for the archaeological heritage. IPHAN is responsible for protecting and advocating for the country's cultural assets, ensuring their permanence, visibility, and availability for present and future generations. -
The Pragmatics of Chaos: Parsing Bolsonaro's
Dossiê THE PRAGMATICS OF CHAOS: PARSING BOLSONARO’S UNDEMOCRATIC LANGUAGE A PRAGMÁTICA DO CAOS: ANALISANDO A LINGUAGEM ANTIDEMOCRÁTICA DE BOLSONARO Daniel N. Silva*, ** ABSTRACT This paper unpacks different layers of Jair Bolsonaro’s pragmatics of chaos – the name I give to a reflexive, ordered and laminated method of producing a permanent sentiment of agitation, murk, and discontent in political audiences while a conservative and free market agenda is radicalized in Brazil. The communicative layers are: history, exemplified by Bolsonaro’s early career in the military: from his union-like activity, to his imprisonment and to evidences of a terrorist plot; persona, indexed by the jocular, non-serious performances that made him famous as a federal representative and that have been mediatized in his executive action as president; text and talk, characterized by a general texture of incendiary framing, smoke screens, backtracking, and avoidance of debate; audiences, seen from the perspective of the digital, pedagogic and performative populism that accrued from his campaign, almost entirely designed for being engendered on the non-public space of WhatsApp groups and in public, algorithmic social media platforms. Keywords: digital populism; smoke screens; incendiary framing; backtracking; avoidance of debate. RESUMO Este artigo analisa diferentes camadas da pragmática do caos de Jair Bolsonaro – o nome que dou ao método reflexivo, ordenado e laminado de produzir um sentimento permanente de agitação, névoa e mal-estar em audiências políticas -

Gaps in Governance of Responsible Business Conduct in Brazil
Gaps in governance of Responsible Business Conduct in Brazil June 2020 Gaps in governance of Responsible Business Conduct in Brazil Introduction During 2020, the OECD Working Party on Responsible Business Conduct (WPRBC) is conducting a responsible business conduct (RBC) policy review of Brazil. The material below provides insights from civil society on: 1. RBC governance gaps in Brazil regarding adherence to human rights, environmental law and regulation, preservation of indigenous territory, and respect for social welfare and workers’ rights, 2. Illustrative examples of these governance gaps, and 3. Proposed solutions to these governance gaps. This paper is submitted to help guide the research, content, and recommendations of the WPRBC’s Brazil RBC policy review. Analysis of leading RBC governance gaps in Brazil and their potential solutions In recent years, the Brazilian government has engaged in numerous attempts to undermine legal and institutional frameworks essential for human rights and the environmental protections, with detrimental effects on enabling conditions for responsible business conduct. Such practices have worsened since the onset of the administration of President Jair Bolsonaro in January 2019, with intensified attacks on democratic institutions and disregard for the rule of law.1 Clearly, there are salient examples of private sector actors that are commited to responsible business conduct in Brazil, with serious commitments to human rights and environmental concerns. However, there are alarming cases of private sector actors that have actively engaged in systemic violations of domestic legislation and international standards of human rights and environmental protections. Unfortunately, there are still widespread examples of corporations, both national and multinational, that have demonstrated complacency and complicity in the face of deteriorating conditions of environmental governance in Brazil, despite their substantial political weight. -
