  • 1 a Eleição De 1982 No Pará
    1 A eleição de 1982 no Pará: Memórias, imagens fotográficas e narrativas históricas. Edilza Oliveira Fontes 1 Em 2010 Jader Barbalho ex-governador do Estado do Pará por duas vezes lança um livro que pretende apresentar sua vida pública aos eleitores paraenses que neste ano iriam votar em dois senadores. Jader Barbalho afirma que já em 1962 já participava das lutas estudantis e que continuou nessa forma de resistência quando o golpe militar chegou. Faz um balanço dos cargos eletivos que ocupou, o deputado oferece a partir deste álbum a sua história para ser analisada e comparada. Citação do livro Tempo do Trabalho. 2010. Edição do autor. Neste álbum Jader Barbalho ao se referir aos governos militares declara o seguinte: “Tancredo Neves, Ulysses Guimarães, os companheiros do PMDB e de outros partidos como também pela sociedade civil, sindicatos, Igreja lutou bravamente para tirar o Brasil da escuridão. Isso é era umas atividades perigosas, temerárias. A oposição era punida de forma violenta. Quem era oposição corria o risco o ser cassado, exilado e torturado. Foi esse cenário e pela Justa causa de livrar o Brasil da ditadura, que iniciei minha vida pública, em 1966 como oposição ao governo militar fazendo parte do grupo dos “autênticos” do MDB” Como podemos observar, o hoje senador Jader Barbalho pretendeu apresentar para os eleitores de 2010 um balanço de sua vida política e usou sua memória com eixo exclusivo da sua narrativa. Neste livro os editores usam as noticias de jornal como ilustração para comprovar a narrativa construída. Mas não só Jader tentou registra as eleições de 1982 no Pará.

  • CASE STUDY the Surui Forest Carbon Project
    The Surui Forest Carbon Project A CASE STUDY Steve Zwick March 2019 With support from ABOUT FOREST TRENDS Forest Trends works to conserve forests and other ecosystems through the creation and wide adoption of a broad range of environmental finance, markets and other payment and incentive mechanisms. Forest Trends does so by 1) providing transparent information on ecosystem values, finance, and markets through knowledge acquisition, analysis, and dissemination; 2) convening diverse coalitions, partners, and communities of practice to promote environmental values and advance development of new markets and payment mechanisms; and 3) demonstrating successful tools, standards, and models of innovative finance for conservation. Forest Trends 1203 19th Street, NW 4th floor Washington, DC 20036 www.forest–trends.org ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The author would like to thank Beto Borges of Forest Trends’ Communities Initiative, Vasco van Roosmalen of Equipe de Conservação da Amazônia (ECAM), Mariano Cenamo and Pedro Soares of the Institute for the Conservation and Sustainable Development of Amazonas (IDESAM), and Jacob Olander of EcoDecisión for their contributions to this case study. This case study is made possible by the generous support of the American people through the United States Agency for International Development (USAID). The contents are the responsibility of Forest Trends and do not necessarily reflect the views of USAID or the United States Government. INTRODUCTION Indigenous people have contributed less to climate change than has any other segment of the population, yet they are among those most vulnerable to its impacts.1 At the same time, agriculture and forestry generate roughly 30 percent of all greenhouse gas emissions, while traditional land- management practices, such as agroforestry and permaculture, can dramatically improve the ability of forests, farms, and fields to absorb emissions.2 This has spawned the creation of a variety of mechanisms designed to support indigenous land stewardship.

  • The Making and Unmaking of Ethnic Boundaries: a Multilevel Process Theory1
    The Making and Unmaking of Ethnic Boundaries: A Multilevel Process Theory1 Andreas Wimmer University of California, Los Angeles Primordialist and constructivist authors have debated the nature of ethnicity “as such” and therefore failed to explain why its charac- teristics vary so dramatically across cases, displaying different de- grees of social closure, political salience, cultural distinctiveness, and historical stability. The author introduces a multilevel process theory to understand how these characteristics are generated and trans- formed over time. The theory assumes that ethnic boundaries are the outcome of the classificatory struggles and negotiations between actors situated in a social field. Three characteristics of a field—the institutional order, distribution of power, and political networks— determine which actors will adopt which strategy of ethnic boundary making. The author then discusses the conditions under which these negotiations will lead to a shared understanding of the location and meaning of boundaries. The nature of this consensus explains the particular characteristics of an ethnic boundary. A final section iden- tifies endogenous and exogenous mechanisms of change. TOWARD A COMPARATIVE SOCIOLOGY OF ETHNIC BOUNDARIES Beyond Constructivism The comparative study of ethnicity rests firmly on the ground established by Fredrik Barth (1969b) in his well-known introduction to a collection 1 Various versions of this article were presented at UCLA’s Department of Sociology, the Institute for Migration Research and Intercultural Studies of the University of Osnabru¨ ck, Harvard’s Center for European Studies, the Center for Comparative Re- search of Yale University, the Association for the Study of Ethnicity at the London School of Economics, the Center for Ethnicity and Citizenship of the University of Bristol, the Department of Political Science and International Relations of University College Dublin, and the Department of Sociology of the University of Go¨ttingen.
