The article examines how distrust regarding the COVID-19 pandemic has served as a catalyst for the diffusion of conspiracy theories. It discusses the nature of conspiracy theories, their relationship with institutional distrust, and their representation in the social media. The methodology used is based on the analysis of hashtags from over one million tweets to determine if certain theories act as "gateways" to others. The findings suggest that logical ties exist between distinct conspiracy theories, influenced by distrust towards specific institutions and amplified by the COVID-19 crisis. It is concluded that the combination of conspiracy theories is not random, but rather, it follows an internal logic that is based on distrust, since these theories are interconnected in an internally coherent way within the context of the pandemic.

Resumo Se o racismo se tornou um tema totalmente legitimado no debate público contemporâneo, a sua investigação sociológica deixa às vezes a desejar. Se é natural e até mesmo desejável que o racismo brasileiro seja uma premissa dos movimentos políticos que buscam denunciá-lo, o mesmo não deveria ser válido para a pesquisa sociológica interessada em entender suas dinâmicas. Neste texto, destacamos as orientações gerais dos autores deste dossiê no sentido da produção de uma sociologia do racismo brasileiro atenta a seus mecanismos empíricos de funcionamento, impactos sociais e lógicas internas. Para tal, destacamos a centralidade de uma noção implícita ou explícita de raça nos processos de racialização e tratamento diferencial.

Esta investigación analiza los presupuestos epistemológicos de la Teoría Social Clásica (TSC) y su influencia en la explicación de los fenómenos sociales. A través de un análisis de la literatura científica y filosófica, se abordan algunos conceptos básicos, los antecedentes históricos de la TSC donde se analizan, comparan y critican los enfoques epistemológicos de la concepción materialista de la historia, el funcionalismo, el estructural-funcionalismo y la sociología interpretativa. Se teoriza sobre la investigación social clásica, su relación con la subjetividad y los valores. Se concluye que las reflexiones teóricas sobre las implicaciones teóricas y prácticas de los compromisos epistemológicos de la TSC son relevantes, principalmente, porque los aportes de la TSC forman parte de los marcos teóricos de las nuevas investigaciones y, además, la consideración tales implicaciones podrían ayudar a desarrollar mejores conocimientos.

Metodologias ativas são instrumentos emergentes para a melhoria do processo de ensino-aprendizagem, inclusive para o público adolescente. Assim, a pesquisa realizada objetivou analisar as metodologias ativas comumente empregadas nas aulas de Sociologia ministradas junto ao Ensino Médio. Para tanto, realizou-se uma revisão sistemática da literatura disponível no Portal CAPES e nos periódicos especializados Revista Café com Sociologia, Cadernos da CABECS, Anais SBS e Anais ENESEB. O portfólio analisado foi composto por 35 manuscritos, cujos resultados indicaram que relatos de experiência apresentaram incremento a partir de 2017, sendo que o Sul e o Sudeste foram responsáveis pela maioria das publicações. Também observou-se que não há relação entre a atuação de “pibidianos” e estagiários concluintes e a implementação dessas práticas. Constatou-se ainda que a adoção de metodologias ativas independe das temáticas abordadas e que recursos audiovisuais tendem a atuarem como gatilhos para discussões, sendo jogos didáticos e escritas de si metodologias recorrentes.

The article argues that religion is a classic theme of sociology, present in the three founding fathers of the discipline, and in Simmel, although the latter is being revisited as a canon of the discipline. Initially, we explore religion in Marx's thought, beyond the famous phrase "the opium of the people". Then, we approach Durkheim and his search for the structures of religion, but we emphasize the limit of his understanding of the religious phenomenon linked to an institution, something that the concept of religiosity presented by Simmel can help in the understanding of contemporary phenomena, such as Young people without Religion in Brazil. In Weber, we look at definitions of protagonists of the sacred, as well as the problem of theodicy. At the end, we approach the Bourdiesian synthesis of the classics to develop the concept of religious field. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Sociologists have long studied the educational incorporation of immigrants and refugees, but most scholarship focuses on questions of access, achievement, attainment, and acculturation. We extend this literature by examining the incorporation of immigrants and refugees in the cultural content of schooling, drawing on a unique dataset spanning 509 textbooks from 80 countries, representing all regions of the world from 1963 to 2011. Our descriptive and multilevel regression analyses reveal a mixed picture. On one hand, textbook discussions of immigrants and refugees have expanded over time and are especially pervasive in textbooks that invoke post-national conceptions of citizenship and in countries that host large foreign-born populations. But we also document stagnating discussions of immigrants and refugees in recent decades, a casting of these groups as part of the historical past more than contemporary civics and society, and a tendency toward their curricular omission in countries with a recent history of war.

Varias observaciones del sociólogo y activista jamaicano Stuart Hall sustentaron el cambio en el pensamiento social sobre las clases, los géneros y la política en el Reino Unido entre los años 1960 y 1990. Así, trabajos como el de Hall sugieren reflexiones cuestionables sobre la conducta humana, desde entonces disociada del respeto por su propia diversidad, que actúa en dirección opuesta a la convivencia. El estudio en cuestión presenta aportes al desarrollo del pensamiento ético y su relación con las culturas, tradiciones e identidades, a partir de las propuestas del sociólogo en un análisis exploratorio de la obra titulada Identidad cultural en la posmodernidad. Finalmente, se observaron apuntes indispensables desde las perspectivas de Hall sobre la ética, que partieron del concepto de integración social hasta el período híbrido contemporáneo, sobre todo, a través de características de la estructuración pública en el engendramiento ético como producto indispensable en la formación de cualquier sistema colectivo de seres humanos, aunque es posible observar una transformación ética visiblemente cambiante a lo largo de la historia.

O ensino médio brasileiro, última etapa da considerada educação básica, encontra-se em um momento emblemático na sua história. A lei 13.415/2017 coloca mudanças estruturais na referida etapa de ensino, como alterações de carga horária e inclusão de novos componentes curriculares, em consonância com um novo currículo nacional, a Base Nacional Comum Curricular. Buscaremos contribuir à compreensão da situação do componente curricular de Sociologia (representante das Ciências Sociais) nesse movimento significativo, especificando o estado de São Paulo, haja vista que o componente possuí um histórico de instabilidade na educação escolar, minimizado com sua inclusão como obrigatória em todo país no ano de 2008. Essa contribuição centra-se nas relações entre o momento histórico de mudanças no ensino médio e as rupturas e continuidades do sistema produtivo capitalista, tendo como ferramenta de análise os Ciclos Sistêmicos de Acumulação. A configuração da Sociologia será abordada a partir da categoria de conhecimento poderoso, e como esse conhecimento fica comprometido nas atuais mudanças.

En este artículo, se presenta una reflexión sobre cómo el conocimiento explícito y tácito tuvo incidencia en el desarrollo de innovaciones en siete empresas del sector alimentario costarricense pertenecientes a la Cámara Costarricense de la Industria Alimentaria (CACIA). Lo anterior con el interés de derivar implicaciones para el sistema educativo costarricense. La investigación realizada se sustentó en un enfoque cualitativo, por medio de la aplicación de entrevistas semiestructuradas a agentes en cada una de las empresas. En los resultados, se constata que ambas formas de conocimiento jugaron un papel central en la consecución de diversas innovaciones, en cada una de las organizaciones. A la vez que derivan seis implicaciones para el sistema educativo, en su condición de institución socializadora y constructora de conocimientos y capacidades, para una sociedad que demanda personas innovadoras.

Acercarse desde la narrativa al núcleo de la violencia feminicida es posible. Puede constituir, incluso, una vía de enriquecimiento a métodos ortodoxos de análisis social porque el discurso literario se alimenta —crudamente, en este caso— de la realidad. Teniendo como premisa que el arte literario retrata con criterios estéticos quiénes somos y cómo nos movemos en tanto sociedad (Goldmann, 1964, Lukács,1989; Chuaqui Numán, 2002; Ortiz et. al. 2021), el objetivo de este artículo es demostrar a través un conjunto de teorizaciones sociológicas, que las representaciones literarias constituyen un valioso acervo para descifrar las causas de la violencia de género. Por tanto, a través del análisis de contenido literario es posible sacar a la luz los pormenores de las instituciones sexistas, de las que somos todos partícipes. En el plano metodológico, los insumos para la valoración hermenéutica fueron obras literarias referidas a feminicidios en su trama, cuentos y novelas publicadas en las tres últimas décadas en países de América latina, y referidas a sucesos del mismo contexto geográfico. El criterio numérico para agotar el examen fue la saturación, procediendo la lectura conforme se fueron encontrando las evidencias. Se revisaron finalmente diez piezas literarias entre una gran cantidad de títulos que refieren asesinatos de mujeres por el sólo hecho de serlo. Se concluye que (1) los relatos de feminicidios, sean en el espacio público o íntimo, emulan la interacción típica entre personas que, por ser de distinto sexo, no están investidas socialmente del mismo valor y dignidad; y (2) los fragmentos literarios comunican con eficacia un statu quo en el cual los hombres ejercen poder sobre las mujeres, en virtud de un entramado de prácticas, normativas, roles, creencias y significados que reproducen privilegios masculinos a expensas de la potencia vital de las mujeres.

Based on the literature on the emotional dimension in contentious politics the article offers some analytical tools to understand polarization in the Catalan political and social context. Using the Arlie Hochschild perspective on emotions (emotions as a sociocultural construct), and her research on polarization processes in the US, we will show how the pride of feeling Catalan can be transformed into a rule of feeling of secessionists groups. Also, throughout the text we will explore how emotions influence the construction of "us" versus "them", or how moral emotions such as rage, pride, outrage and indignation, or affective bonds such as hatred and contempt are determining variables in the process of radicalization of the political narrative between sovereigntists and secessionists, conservatives and progressives, and elites and grassroots political groups.

During the internal armed conflict in Peru (1980-2000) the Andean population endured its worst violence, both by subversive groups and by State agents. Among the other collections of poems that represent the civil war, Rocío Silva Santisteban's Las hijas del terror stands out in its poeticization of the terror experienced by Andean women victims of sexual violence. This article analyzes four poems from the collection: "Chunniqwasi", "BAvioLADA", "Disappeared" and "Las hijas del terror". It examines, on the one hand, the representation of memory and, on the other, the hierarchies of power that contributed to terror and sexual violence in times of war as well as in times of peace. For our analysis, we employ the concepts of subalternity (Gayatri Spivak), trashization (proposed by Daniel Castillo Durante and studied by Rocío Silva Santisteban), and necropower and necrowriting (Achille Mbembe and Cristina Rivera Garza, respectively). Other important concepts by Marfil Francke, Kimberle Crenshaw and Jelke Boesten on intersectionality and sexual violence help us further the analysis. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The article examines the doctrinal category "environmental law and order ", which is forming in Russian legal science and has no direct analogues in other jurisdictions. Its structure, types and forms of manifestation, correlation with other ecological legal terms are substantiated. The need to use this legal structure lies in the fact that it allows you to justify the degree of effectiveness of environmental legislation, evaluate the activities of executive and judicial authorities. The conclusion is argued that along with quantitative (statistical) methods of evaluating effectiveness, it is necessary to apply sociological methods, ranging from interviewing experts in the field of environmental protection, to finding out the opinions of the population of towns and villages on actual environmental issues. This will improve the "feedback" between public authorities and citizens, as well as to assess the work of environmental authorities more objective. The analysis of the survey of Orenburg students on their comprehension of the concept of environmental law and order legal order is given. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The aim of this piece of research is to study productivity and scientific collaboration in the main Spanish sociology journals from a gender perspective. The authorship of 3171 documents published in these journals during the period 2001-2020 was analysed using bibliometric and social network analysis techniques. While there was an overwhelming male dominance at the start of the period, the results show a steady trend towards parity; however, this was only achieved during the 2016-2020 period, and not in all indicators. In conclusion, gender advances in sociology research have only partially come to fruition in Spain, but the scholarly monitoring system cannot be held accountable for this. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

As happens in the very notion of social creativity that presents itself objectified in different figures over time, in the same way the types of transcendence -as condition of posibility of creativity- change over time. We are going to analyze four socio-historical constellations of the creativity-transcendence binomial: The first of them is the one represented by a myth-ritual structure embodied by Homo Sapiens in primitive cultures; the second of them is the one that arises 500 B.C. ago with the "axial revolution" in China, India, Iran, Palestine and Greece supported by new carriers of creative action; the third of them is configured at the beginning of modernity in the 18th century, with the Protestant Reformation and immediately afterwards with the Enlightenment and Romanticism, supported by new carriers of creative action; the fourth constellation of creativity-transcendence emerges today with the convergence of technologies - nanotechnology, biotechnology, Big Data and Artificial Intelligence - where the sense of human nature as a vector within a hybrid cognitive collectivity made up of humans and things is altered.

Este artículo busca profundizar en la complejidad de la Violencia del Crimen Organizado (VCO) al nivel de los significados, las relaciones entre agentes y los efectos sociales observados en la región Guaymas-Empalme, en el norte de México. Se realizó una investigación documental a partir de estadísticas oficiales sobre homicidios y desaparecidos, así como un análisis de notas periodísticas en el periodo 2016-2020, que es cuando se produce un incremento notable en la incidencia delictiva local. Empleando la perspectiva sociológica de Norbert Elias (1990a; 2008), se encontró que la figuración de una crisis regional de seguridad pública precisa aprehenderla como un conjunto de relaciones de interdependencias entre Estado, agentes criminales y sociedad civil, lo que dota de sentido a la emergente realidad vinculada con la degradación de la calidad de vida societal, expresada en ruptura de la violencia criminal tradicional, victimización específica y generalizada, crecimiento del umbral de tolerancia de “daños colaterales”, estructuras emotivas negativas, movimientos sociales de víctimas permanentes y esporádicos y diálogos unilaterales.

En la segunda mitad del siglo pasado, en el ámbito de la exégesis bíblica, han surgido nuevos enfoques para el acercamiento al texto bíblico que han supuesto un enriquecimiento notable del método histórico crítico, catalogado como imprescindible para el estudio de la Sagrada Escritura. Entre esos nuevos métodos de acercamiento al texto bíblico está el acercamiento socio histórico o contextual. Su finalidad es acortar la distancia entre el lector actual y el lector de hace dos milenios mediante el recurso a las ciencias sociales y a la antropología cultural. Teniendo en cuenta este marco se llevó a cabo un estudio cuya finalidad era diseñar un programa de comprensión socio histórica de textos bíblicos para reforzar su comprensión en docentes de religión de la ODEC Chiclayo. La investigación se llevó a cabo bajo el paradigma positivista, con enfoque cuantitativo de nivel básico propositivo. La población fue seleccionada mediante el muestreo probabilístico intencionado. Se aplicó un test de comprensión socio histórica cuyo resultado evidenció la necesidad de reforzar la comprensión de textos bíblicos también mediante los elementos del análisis socio histórico.

Resumo: De que modo os fenômenos sociais entendidos como pertencentes à esfera da saúde provocaram a Sociologia nas últimas décadas? Este estudo parte dessa pergunta para articular Sociologia e Saúde, propondo uma reflexão sobre a maneira como o conhecimento pode avançar na interseção entre essas duas áreas. O texto é organizado em três seções: na primeira, oferece uma breve reflexão sobre a noção de “problema sociológico contemporâneo”, indicando as questões da Sociologia da Saúde que podem ser tomadas como vetores para essa indagação; na segunda, examina algumas contribuições da Sociologia da Saúde, sobretudo a partir da segunda metade do século XX, pontuando a maneira como essa área precisou organizar soluções e reconfigurar problemas sociológicos para dar conta de fenômenos contemporâneos; e por fim, na terceira seção, o texto propõe novas perguntas para pensar a saúde como problema sociológico contemporâneo no contexto político atual.

Resumo Quando partiu rumo ao Brasil, em setembro de 1939, o intelectual austro-brasileiro Otto Maria Carpeaux fez o seu primeiro contato com a literatura brasileira por meio de um texto de Machado de Assis. Com esse primeiro contato, que se deu com uma tradução francesa, Carpeaux percebeu que valeria a pena aprender a língua portuguesa. Desde então, a sua relação com o Bruxo do Cosme Velho - como foi apelidado o autor de Dom Casmurro - e com a cultura brasileira tornou-se cada vez mais profunda. Carpeaux dedicou alguns ensaios à obra de Machado de Assis, entre os quais uma análise original de Memórias póstumas de Brás Cubas e um ensaio que se propunha a rebater as críticas pretensamente marxistas feitas por Octávio Brandão à obra machadiana. Diante desse corpus, este artigo se propõe a analisar os ensaios de Otto Maria Carpeaux dedicados a Machado de Assis, bem como contextualizar a importância do escritor brasileiro para as discussões literárias que se colocavam naquele momento, sobretudo do ponto de vista da análise sociológica.

En este libro inédito, que data de 1893, cuando Émile Durkheim impartía un curso de Sociología criminal (recuperado y editado por Matthieu Béra), el autor francés despliega una tipología de crímenes según sus causas sociales, entre los que destacan los crímenes altruistas, los atáxicos, los alcohólicos y los anómicos. Antes de llegar a esta innovadora clasificación, el autor define sociológicamente al crimen, después problematiza algunos factores cósmicos, individuales, antropológicos y neurológicos que influyen en él hasta llegar a las causas sociales de este fenómeno.

A ação social dos indivíduos pode levar a compreensão das relações sociais que constituem a sociedade, sempre na perspectiva do coletivo, pois sem ele as relações não seriam possíveis para análise ou prática. O objetivo deste artigo é apresentar a perspectiva Weberiana para racionalidade e alguns conceitos a ela vinculados, os quais acreditamos serem promissores no que diz respeito à estruturação e operacionalização de estudos no âmbito das Ciências Sociais. Para isso, foram levantados diversos estudos e pesquisas que colaboram com essa reflexão, ou seja, trata-se de uma pesquisa de natureza exploratória reflexiva e bibliográfica a partir de textos e reflexões já disponíveis sobre o pensamento da perspectiva Weberiana. Como resultados, identificamos que os principais conceitos que colaboram com essa reexão são “tipos ideais”, “ação” e “ação social” e “tipos ideais de ação social”, e “categorias sociológicas fundamentais da gestão econômica”. É possível concluir que a racionalidade teve um papel central nas obras de Max Weber e que este constructo teórico, alinhado aos demais conceitos que junto a ele se aglutinam, constitui um ótimo prisma para a realização de estudos sociais, sejam eles operacionalizados tendo por casos empíricos organizações formais, informais, grupos ou indivíduos isoladamente. Também acreditamos que o conceito de “tipos ideais” possa ser um grande aliado metodológico para a realização desses estudos.

Este texto se centra en la génesis de las ciencias sociales a través de una reflexión analítico- descriptiva sobre la sistematización de la ciencia. La ciencia es una creación del ser humano y constituye la mejor herramienta para adquirir conocimientos acerca de su entorno, de sí mismo, del universo... Debe ser interdisciplinaria y para dar soporte a este empeño, hemos tenido que elegir, y hemos optado por comparar la sociología con la filosofía buscando aportaciones (implícitas o explícitas) de prestigiosos pensadores.

Conversa com o sociólogo italiano Vincenzo Susca em junho de 2023, durante sua passagem por Porto Alegre, quando ministrou aulas sobre paisagem midiáticas e imaginário, a convite do Programa de Pós-Graduação em Comunicação da PUCRS. Na entrevista, o professor associado de Sociologia do Imaginário na Universidade de Paul-Valéry 3 (Montpellier, França), falou sobre imaginário, tecnomagia e defendeu a necessidade de “aprender a dançar” sobre as cadeias impostas por uma sociedade cada vez mais governada por algoritmos.

The ideas presented by José Eusebio Caro in his unfinished work entitled Social Mechanics or Theory of Human Movement, Considered in its Nature, in its Effects and in its Causes, in 1836, collects characteristic aspects of the thought of the first decades of the 19th century, with roots, some of them in previous times. The intellectual richness of the work in question induced analytical research, of which this document reports, according to the following research question: What are the predominant epistemological features in the philosophical and sociological theses of José Eusebio Caro, in his posthumous work unfinished work entitled Social mechanics or theory of human movement, considered in its nature, in its effects and in its causes? The study of this work focuses on specifying epistemological aspects of a proposal that shares honors with positivism and the emergence of social theory whose theses give way to the emergence of sociology. This, in a particular century characterized by the search for the ideological and political originality of the American continent, which hoped to re-emerge far from Spanish domination and close to French theorists and the ideological developments of England.

This article presents the results of research focused on changes stemming from the use of digital platforms and the rapid growth of call centers in the context of 21st-century production outsourcing. Working conditions were examined through 17 questionnaires and 12 life story interviews of working people, in order to explore the construction of collective identity and the value of work in these service centers. Key questions were raised regarding liberation versus control in call center work and how workers perceive their relationship with their job. Upon conclusion, the study addresses the presence of a working subject, connecting this work with fundamental forms for the development of global capitalism, even when not directly linked to material means of production, aligning with concerns raised by Osnaide Izquierdo (2020, 2021).

The aim of the article is to describe the provision practices of working-age households in the city of Rafaela, during 2021-2022. To do so, we developed a quantitative design, with non-probabilistic sampling. We applied a structured self-administered questionnaire, implemented in printed and online format. The analysis technique was descriptive statistics. We identified a diversity of typologies of households, showing heterogeneous sociabilities in the city. In terms of provision, households that combine work with other sources of income, mainly from the state, largely predominate. The condition of subsiadiano seems to make the provision proposed by the models more complex. Likewise, dual provision emerges in a multifaceted way in many households: in some households, the nucleus contributes, but in others, the mother-descendant. In this way, empirical studies show heterogeneities in provision practices that go beyond widely disseminated stereotypes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This article focuses on the concept of the Hidden Curriculum, based on Critical Theory and the Sociology of the Curriculum. This analysis is fundamental to the task of understanding the curriculum's mission in producing personalities. However, by attributing the center of this process to those experiences and objectives that are not explicit, the concept also contributes to absolving the formal curriculum of its responsibility in the formation of social subjects. It is therefore necessary to examine the minutiae of cultural and social reproduction, which is evident in the combination of one and the other (formal and hidden curriculum). The discussion is based on the works Documentos de Identidade: uma introdução às teorias curriculares, by Tomaz Tadeu da Silva (2016) and Sociologia e teoria crítica do currículo: uma introdução by Antônio Flávio Barbosa Moreira and Tomaz Tadeu da Silva (2001). The aim was to contribute to an understanding of curriculum organization and its links with broad economic and social formations, with the aim of understanding the role of schools in selecting, preserving, transmitting and distributing culture, governed by ideological norms and values.
