In July 2019 Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro got public attention after giving controversial statements about the cause of death of a member of the revolutionary organization Ação Popular Marxista-Leninista, Fernando Augusto de Santa Cruz Oliveira, who was declared a missing person since 1974. Although the State had already taken responsibility for his death using transitional justice means, president Bolsonaro ignored that fact and blamed the political organization he belonged to, without showing any evidence. President Bolsonaro pleaded that Fernando Augusto de Santa Cruz Oliveira was killed by one of the organization members, because of loss of trust. Besides the fact that the president took the responsibility out of the State, he assigned the victim as a dishonored person. Assuming the facts that support Fernando de Santa Cruz was captured and executed by the repressive regime that was in place in Brazil, the goal of this paper is to analyze the dead and missing people cases related to members and leaders from the Marxist-Leninist Ação Popular. The intention is to review the events in the history of APML concomitant to its strategy of resistance and combat against the dictatorship. Also, the purpose of the paper is to analyze how the cases of dead and missing people were conducted by the transitional justice. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The paper systematizes some information about both Arrigo Barnabe's and Itamar Assumpcao's artistic career. The paper analyses, as well, the forms of two compositions: "Clara Crocodilo" (Arrigo Barnabé/ Mario Lucio Cortes), recorded in 1980 on the Clara Crocodilo album; and "Nego Dito" (Itamar Assumpção), recorded in 1981 on the Beleléu, Leléu, Eu album. In the interdisciplinary perspective that one takes, the notion of form refers to the analysis of the elements that structure each composition and to the interpretation of the meaning of that structure in the light of Brazil's historical process. Thus, the sound materials that constitute each recording and the ways these materials are articulated are related to the Brazilian history in the moving from the 1970s to the 1980s.

This article intends to analyze the ideas about the creation of a model of Ministry of Agriculture implanted in the first quarter of the 20th century in Brazil and in the last years of the 19th century in Argentina. These ministries give us the policies directed to the adoption of a scientific agriculture in both countries. The paper raises questions about the advances of agronomic science and the interaction with an increasing state intervention in agriculture. The analysis is mainly focused in the contrasts and similarities with other producing countries and the consequences of the circulation of knowledge and technologies in these spaces. It also outlines a profile of the sugar production growth as a decisive factor to the sugar producers’ new demands for educational and research institutions in these sugar-related areas. The present work is the first approximation to the process of constitution and operation of a technicians’ network based on Argentinian and Brazilian sources, such as bulletins and technical leaflets.

This paper aims to investigate the establishment of a field of academic history in Brazil, by means of USP’s Revista de História, founded in 1950. Through the contents of the 1950’s issues we identify, in the publication, a period of closeness between professionals coming from the IHGSP and others from the university itself. That points to a transition period between a so-called traditional history and a new professional history in Brazil, already during the 1950’s. It is also possible to sort out the traditional periods of the relationship between the Annales and the so called USP school of History, through the analyses of elements that accompany texts published by French historians and some others published by professors such as Eurípedes Simões de Paula, Eduardo d’Oliveira França and Astrogildo Rodrigues de Mello.

Naval History has been a subdomain of Maritime and Military Histories. It can be subdivided into Central Naval History when it refers to classical Military History, encompassing research in the military and operational fields, Auxiliary when referring to Science, Technology and biographies and Cognate when it relates to other domains of history, having the sea as fulcrum, including using theoretical tools from other fields of History. In Brazil there are few theses and dissertations of Naval History in the university environment. Taking into account CAPES Thesis and Dissertations Catalogue between 2016 and 2018, a survey of the percentage of academic papers correlated to Naval History was conducted in the considered period. The relationship between the total number of defenses in the period with the number of Naval History works was verified, as well as the number of investigations in the three subfields of Naval History, the Central, the Auxiliary and Cognate concluding by the insufficiency of research in this area in Brazil and the reasons for this situation.

The historical museums, such as the monuments, have been understood as images the societies produce for the future. However, this concept of museums as maintainers and guardians of the memory of a community or a locality is been revised. The city of Londrina, even though fairly new, preserves by various means a praise of the memory of certain groups, called 'pioneers'. The challenging of such memorial practices and inclusion of new actors is quite controversial and costly. Thus, this paper aims to reflect on the representations of women in the language of the Historical Museum of Londrina. To this end, it is proposed to analyze a temporary exhibition placed in that Museum: "Caring, Healing, Remember - memory of the health in Londrina." Therefore, we will investigate what (s) language (s) the MHL aligns to and presents itself for the public. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
