In this paper, we analyze metaphors by simile in the context of the covid-19 pandemic, taking into account sense relations that encompass conceptual domains, socio-cultural aspects, as well as pragmatic and discourse functions raised in the circumstances examined. For this purpose, we assume a theoretical framework that conceives metaphor as a multi-faceted phenomenon that permeates distinct linguistic levels. In addition, we adopt a method that resorts to the web as a corpus to identify the metaphors, by applying triggers such as coronavírus é como, covid-19 é como, coronavírus é que nem e covid-19 é que nem. In the light of our findings, in general, we can assert that, although speakers use similar metaphorical domains, they do so based on different discourse-argumentative positions and intentions, which can result, for instance, in positive or negative attitudes towards the effects of the pandemic.

In this paper it is proposed that the study of popular religiosity is relevant to understanding new forms of contemporary religiosity as they emerge in Latin America. Whereas the theoretical positions held by sociologists of religion in Europe assume that the individual is the most suitable unit for analysis in order to understand the religious transformations of postmodern times, it is argued in this paper that popular religion, understood as being "in between" the traditional and the newly arising, between the local and the transnational, between the social and the individual and between the holiness of the worldly and the worldliness of the sacred, makes it possible to take into account the phenomena of religion practised on the margins of the institutions (as in its new age and neo-esoteric expressions); while attending to the processes by which the new de-institutionalised forms of religion legitimate themselves, seeking anchorages and lineages that would create a continuity with the weight of tradition provided by popular religion.

Competence is a complex and multifaceted concept, which may assume different meanings. The objective of this paper is to discuss the nature of the human competence and the main factors that explain its expression at work, based on the framework of cognitive approaches as those related to the attribution of cause, the study of the relations between attitude and behavior and learning in organizations. Similarities and relationships between concepts and proposals from different theoretical approaches are presented, in order to understand the causes and consequences of competence. The influence of learning and organizational support on the development and the mobilization of competences is also discussed. Even thought this concept has emerged in the Business Administration area, some theories, studies and proposals from others areas of knowledge, as Social and Organizational Psychology, may help to interpret and to understand the nature of the human competence and its components. Since the study about this concept is in evidence and its theoretical support still needs empirical inquiry, a research agenda is suggested at the end of the paper. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Unlike in other times, the immigrant today continues to maintain ties and close and continuous relationships with their country of origin, exerting an important psychosocial and cultural role in both countries. This paper examines, in particular, resonances of transnationalism in subjectivity, taking as object of analysis an Angolan song that portrays feelings of estrangement of a woman, because of the attitudes and behaviors of her husband, who had newly returned from Brazil. In the lyrics, the woman complains that her husband returned quite brazilianized, expressing in the relationship with her habits that she considers weird, inappropriate and offensive, according to local customs and morality. It is possible, according to this song, to see how the theme of emigration towards Brazil is present in the minds of Angolans and how they feel affected by the transubjectivity of their countrymen who return to home and instill foreign and transgressive elements in the innermost intimacy of their culture, here represented by the affective and sexual life of a couple.

The notion of what constitutes a career is interdisciplinary by nature, congregating views from an individual, organizations and society. Nevertheless, despite progress in discussions on the subject, recent studies have pointed towards the limitations of currently used theories, calling for greater interdisciplinarity (Arthur, 2008; Chudzikowski & Mayrhofer, 2011; Khapova & Arthur, 2011; Lawrence, 2011), since little evolution has occurred in this sense. In order to respond to the need for multidisciplinary research in career studies, this paper aims to present and illustrate the potential use of life histories by analyzing the influences and limits on seven Brazilian executives' career paths through this method. Results are presented in two broad categories of analysis: (a) contextual influences on careers involving changes in the Brazilian economic and organizational setting, increased competition and need to increase knowledge in face of globalization, mobility demand and gender discrimination; (b) life stages and career choices, including individual aspects of their trajectories, such as family values, choice of undergraduate courses, entering the labor market and parenthood.

Small Business (EB) play an important role for social promotion, ballast political stability and driving force of development, and stand out in job generation and income distribution of a country, therefore, should be encouraged to continue these companies. In this context, appears to be important to know the aspects that would assist in such continuity. The existence of behavioral traits in entrepreneurial business owners would be a facilitator of the same longevity. However, they are incipient works that reveal the presence of these characteristics in a MSE owners. From this, this paper had the main objective to identify the presence of behavioral characteristics attributed to successful entrepreneurs in the MSE owners do Vale do Mucuri and Jequitinhonha/MG. The study is empirical-descriptive, which used a structured questionnaire to collect data, obtaining the return of 283 respondents and analyzed using descriptive statistics and discriminant analysis. The sample was divided into three groups of entrepreneurs categorized by the longevity of companies, to assess a possible difference in the presence of the characteristics, according to the same age. We found that the unique characteristics that differed in the discrimination of the three groups were longevity "Being independent / self" and "Personal relationship and leadership." We conclude that, from the perception of entrepreneurs, the presence of most of CCE's would not be directly associated with longevity of the businesses, however, can contribute to the longevity thereof, if reflected in the actions of their owners. Therefore, this research has strengthened the results of Petry and Nascimento (2009), since both those findings as relevant to enterprises of Mesoregion findings, lined in portraying that even the CCE's being suggested by the theory as elements rather associated with longevity, this effect was not confirmed by empirical tests. Still, managers should cultivate them, because the literature suggests that they can contribute to the improvement of enterprises. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In organizations, moral awareness is the understanding of ethical issues involved in decisions and behaviors. Identifying the degree of moral perception helps implement programs to mitigate inadequate social values and codes of ethical conduct . The moral sense represent the individual history and context of the people. Authors examined throughout the article come in one of generational characteristic elements of context and therefore one of the causes of behavior. The aim of the paper is to investigate the occurrence of differences in moral perception among generations in organizations. The survey used 3, 211 questionnaires (secondary data) applied between 2011 and 2012. The results show that the variable "generation" is not decisive for the ethical decisions and allows us to understand that the literature on behavioral standardization of generations on the one hand, points to an important phenomenon from another, original fiction, its use as structured models should be parsimonious.

The paper discusses the implementation of the Kidsmart Project in the Municipal Early Childhood Education Centres in Curitiba, Brazil. The research project is part of a qualitative approach using an exploratory study to analyze the continuing education and activity of early childhood education professionals in the municipal schools of Curitiba in relation to the development of the Kidsmart Project and the implications it has generated in the learning process of children. The theoretical contributions are based on authors such as Purificação and Brito (2006), Daniel (2003), Kensky (2007), Lemos and Cunha (2003), Lévy (1999), Morin (2000) and Oliveira-Formosinho (2002). Initial results indicate that teachers and children have had access to computers but that access often shows problems in terms of its purpose, method and meaning. It is up to each early childhood education professional to refl ect on the importance of appropriating and integrating Information and Communication Technologies and their languages into contemporary school education processes aiming at a meaningful learning. There is need to construct meaning about the use of technological resources and their applications in early childhood education to ensure quality in the teaching-learning process.

The scale measurement instrument of entrepreneurship attitude (Imae), proposed by Souza and Lopes Jr. (2005), has two dimensions: prospection and innovation, management and persistence. Based on this scale it can be verified validity and interval that the entrepreneurship attitude may be measured, and also to verify its capacity of discriminating the answer that a human being is able to give. The purpose of this paper is to validate the Imae scale through the graded response model of the item response theory (IRT), which revolutionized the theory of measures. The IRT, psychology constructions used in discriminative answer studies, especially in large samples of respondents to a specific phenomenon, consist of mathematical models relating one or more latent traits (unobserved) of an individual with the probability of giving a particular response to an item. The main point of IRT is taking into account the particular item, without revealing the total scores, so the findings do not only depend on the test or questionnaire, but each item that composes it. Two levels of the scale were identified as the main results of this research. They are called anchors that allow interpreting people Entrepreneurship Attitude tendencies and findings that Imae items present good capacity in discriminating the answer that one is able to give, providing quality to those items, and, therefore, validating the Imae scale. This study is important in view of the role that attitude plays in the choices that individuals make about their own lives, helping to determine their own actions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper aims to expose and reflect on the debate between remarkable social scientists of our time: Ulrich Beck and Bruno Latour. However, I still suggest that this debate goes beyond the level of their convergences and divergences in providing indicative of some trends in the humanities. One aspect that I intend to discuss refers to what I see as an "anthropological openness" of the human sciences, which in no way corresponds to his anthropologization. I argue that due the proliferation of crises sociologists and political scientists tend to open their macro-explanatory schemes of social scrutiny and the combination of anthropological methodologies as a mean of finding bases for new parameters that can delimit normative political projects.
