Travestilidades aprisionadas

Este livro aborda o aprisionamento de travestis no Ceará a partir de um trabalho de campo etnográfico em que o pesquisador também atua como policial penal. Entende a prisão não como um espaço isolado da sociedade, mas como espaço poroso no interior de um dispositivo de governo regulando corpos, sexualidades e objetos: um território integrante da sociedade que, historicamente, nega às travestis o direito à cidadania. A análise está ancorada em uma etnografia que, ao longo da sua produção, se tornou "multissituada", realizada em três penitenciárias cearenses. As discussões são desenvolvidas a partir de intensas interlocuções com pessoas em cenários diversos, tecidas desde ...

Amazons, Wives, Nuns, and Witches

The Roman Catholic church played a dominant role in colonial Brazil, so that women’s lives in the colony were shaped and constrained by the Church’s ideals for pure women, as well as by parallel concepts in the Iberian honor code for women. Records left by Jesuit missionaries, Roman Catholic church officials, and Portuguese Inquisitors make clear that women’s daily lives and their opportunities for marriage, education, and religious practice were sharply circumscribed throughout the colonial period. Yet these same documents also provide evocative glimpses of the religious beliefs and practices that were especially cherished or independently developed by women for their own use, constit...

This book examines immigrant student achievement and education policy across a range of Western nations. It is divided into 3 sections: Part 1 introduces the topic of immigrant student achievement and the performance disadvantage that is consistently reported across a range of international jurisdictions. Part 2 then presents national profiles from scholars in ten countries (England, Germany, Italy, Sweden, Finland, Netherlands, Republic of Ireland, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand). These educational jurisdictions were selected because they represent a range of Western nations engaged in large-scale reform efforts geared towards enhancing their immigrant students’ achievement. Each of t...

This book offers a new perspective on the making of Afro-Brazilian, African-American and African studies through the interrelated trajectory of E. Franklin Frazier, Lorenzo Dow Turner, Frances and Melville Herskovits in Brazil. The book compares the style, network and agenda of these different and yet somehow converging scholars, and relates them to the Brazilian intellectual context, especially Bahia, which showed in those days much less density and organization than the US equivalent. It is therefore a double comparison: between four Americans and between Americans and scholars based in Brazil.
