Objective: To investigate the prevalence of exclusive breastfeeding (EA) and factors associated with its interruption among mothers of children from 0 to 6 months of age in the municipality of Santo Antônio de Jesus -BA. Method: Cross-sectional study with 278 mothers, attended in health units of the municipality. Data were collected through interviews. Through hierarchical multiple analysis, a crude and adjusted prevalence ratio (PR), and their respective confidence intervals (95% CI) were calculated. Results: The prevalence of exclusive breastfeeding was 39.6%. The variables race/skin color (nonblack), primiparity, absence of family support for breastfeeding, dissatisfaction during breastfeeding, and pacifier use were associated with interruption of the outcome. Conclusion: The frequency of exclusive breastfeeding was below the indicator recommended by the Ministry of Health. Among the factors that were associated with the interruption of exclusive breastfeeding are socioeconomic characteristics related to reproductive history and lifestyle, as well as conditions related to the child. More effective breastfeeding promotion measures are necessary to mitigate this outcome.

In the experience of the time called “updatism”, the future is nothing more than a new version of the present, as if the subject’s power of agency had decayed. This paper analyzes two actions that can help to attenuate this logic: the digitization of museum collections and the discussion about urban monuments. The hypothesis raised by us is that the virtualization of museums and the modification of monuments have potential as historical updates, as long as they comprehend, as well as the historiographical narrative, the legacies of the past and the projects for the future that are part of the present, aspiring to the defense of democratic values and a more egalitarian society. Finally, we concluded that a better understanding of the present and the renewal of an expectation of the future in which we are agents, and not just spectators, can be achieved through the historical narrative as a counter-updatism action, the incorporation of varied perceptions of the time in historiography and the opening of possibilities in the future. Na experiência de tempo atualista, o futuro nada mais é que uma nova versão do presente, como se o poder de agência dos sujeitos diminuísse. O presente artigo analisa dois tipos de ações que podem contribuir para o enfraquecimento de tal lógica: a preservação de acervos de museus através da digitalização e a discussão a respeito dos monumentos urbanos. A hipótese levantada é a de que a virtualização de museus e a modificação de monumentos possuem o potencial de atualizações históricas, desde que compreendam, assim como a narrativa historiográfica, os legados do passado e os projetos de futuro que fazem parte do presente, visando à defesa de valores democráticos e de uma sociedade mais igualitária. Conclui-se, por fim, que uma melhor compreensão do presente e a renovação de uma expectativa de futuro na qual sejamos agentes, e não apenas espectadores, pode ser alcançada através da narrativa histórica como ação contra-atualista, da incorporação de variadas percepções do tempo na historiografia e da abertura de possibilidades no futuro.
