Título: “Mais que vender roupas”: o Pop Plus na construção social do subcampo econômico da moda plus size no Brasil Autor(es): Martins, Amanda Beatriz Santos Abstract: The plus-size clothing segment is the fastest growing in the economic field of fashion. In mid2010, the economic subfield of plus size fashion began to grow in Brazil, so that the growth of this segment has increasingly altered the configurations of the economic field of fashion. This growth is generally associated with cultural changes, as well as with the processes of building supply and demand for plus size fashion. The aim of this dissertation is to understand, by analysing the Pop Plus fair, the social logic behind the creation of the economic subfield of plus size fashion in Brazil. To do this, bibliographical research, participant observation, interviews, descriptive analysis and multiple correspondence analysis were used. This dissertation concludes that the construction and growth of the economic subfield of plus size fashion is not only due to the need for brands to sell garments in large sizes, but also due to changes in cultural standards. Generally speaking, changes in beauty standards, the growth of anti-gordophobia movements and the growth in demand for plus-size clothing were all factors that influenced the growth in the commercialisation of plus-size clothing. Finally, from participant observation it was possible to see that the economic subfield of plus size fashion is legitimised by the meanings that these garments have, both for those who sell them and for those who consume them, given that the production of the offer takes into account aesthetic and ethical factors as well as economic factors. Based on the descriptive and multiple correspondence analyses, it was possible to conclude that the location of the shopkeepers is a determining factor in differentiating the economic subfield of plus size fashion, while body features, especially the fact that they are fat women, bring the agents of the subfield closer together.

Título: "A cidade é nossa roça, nossa luta é na carroça”: trabalho e tradição dos carroceiros na região metropolitana de Aracaju Autor(es): Oliveira, Anthony Nunes Rodrigues Abstract: This research consists of an empirical-qualitative analysis of the Wagon Workers of the Metropolitan Region of Aracaju (RMA), their labor relations, culture and tradition through various social mechanisms involved in the struggle for the recognition and maintenance of their historical legacy in the state territory of Sergipe. Initially, this work category in Brazil and its genesis as a social group was explored through a socio-historical strategy of research and so its dynamics in previous historical periods, its process of proletarianization in the post-slavery epoch and its racialization marked as black and migrant. In addition, the aim is to understand the consequences of urban development infrastructures in cities and labor systems as an agent of promoting social inequalities in emerging capitalism by using former slaves as marginalized labor force in the infracircuit of the economy. In a second moment, the ideological conflicts regarding the boundaries of human and non-human relations are identified as relevant since this group has developed an ancestral interspecific relationship amongst equines, considering kin members in their families. However, they have struggled in public sphere conflicts between government institutions and civil society to legitimize their multispecies way of life in urban contexts resulting in acts of racist violence aiming to prohibit their status as companion, to repress black workers and their more-than-human families with equines. Thus, it’s concluding the crucial role Wagon Workers’ occupation does into dialectic of urban development since they perform a function of marginalized labor force at peripheral neighborhoods of the region lowering the costs of social reproduction of the urban space, and still, State reinforces its domination over these workers through racial, class and species repression. Furthermore, the State, through various colonial practices of dehumanization, perpetuates the erasure of an endogenous form of interspecific organization in the form of epistemicide of their culture and traditions guided by developmentalist ideology that prevails in the metropolitan region.

Título: A construção iconográfica do sofrimento de refugiados venezuelanos Autor(es): Jesus, Bruno Henrique Souza de Abstract: This dissertation aims to analyze how the suffering of Venezuelan refugees is portrayed in photojournalism. The questions that guided the research were: does photojournalism represent the precarious condition of refugee bodies? Through photographs of the refugee body, how does the theme of refuge appear alongside others such as gender, work, humanitarianism and militarization? Did the photographs create a stigmatization of refugees? To carry out such an investigation, a survey was carried out in the collection of the newspaper O Globo with the writers “Venezuela refugee”, “Venezuelan refugees” and “Venezuelan refugees”. Subsequently, a database was built with the images found to perform a joint analysis through a varied methodological bibliography, as well as Kurasawa (2015), Sontag (2003; 2004), Butler (2015; 2019c), Barthes (1984) , Panofsky (2001) and other authors who address the consumption of suffering, stigma, figuration, polluting bodies and gender. The text is divided into three chapters: the first, “Reflections About Refuge”, discusses how refuge can be thought of along with other categories of power and its relationship with the embodiment of life and with suffering; the second, “Reflections on the Image and the Method”, contains a discussion about photography and the methodology used in the research; the third, Thematic Analysis, combines the theory of the present dissertation with the empirical data to analyze how the images of suffering construct the refugee while, furthermore, it is also discussed how the images of suffering also follow existing objective structures and divisions in society. The results obtained were important to show that the speeches produced by the media through images of suffering generated several speeches: 1) When humanitarian work is portrayed there is a use of suffering through framing of faces and an exhibition of expressions of children and bodies militarized generating an emotional environment different from mourning; 2) There is also the production of stigmas through the photographs by placing the bodies of refugees as pollutants and removing their faces from the frames; 3) The suffering in the photographs of refugees reproduced existing dominations in their symbolic schemes of society, as well as the gender role in relation to suffering.; Esta disertación tiene como objetivo analizar cómo se retrata el sufrimiento de los refugiados venezolanos en el fotoperiodismo. Las preguntas que orientaron la investigación fueron: ¿el fotoperiodismo representa la precaria condición de los cuerpos de refugiados? A través de fotografías del cuerpo refugiado, ¿cómo aparece el tema del refugio junto a otros como el género, el trabajo, el humanitarismo y la militarización? ¿Las fotografías crearon una estigmatización de los refugiados? Para llevar a cabo tal investigación se realizó una encuesta en la colección del diario O Globo con los escritores “Refugiados venezolanos”, “Refugiados venezolanos” y “Refugiados venezolanos”. Posteriormente, se construyó una base de datos con las imágenes encontradas para realizar un análisis conjunto a través de una variada bibliografía metodológica, así como Kurasawa (2015), Sontag (2003; 2004), Butler (2015; 2019c), Barthes (1984), Panofsky (2001) y otros autores que abordan el consumo del sufrimiento, el estigma, la figuración, los cuerpos contaminadores y el género. El texto se divide en tres capítulos: el primero, “Reflexiones sobre el refugio”, discute cómo se puede pensar el refugio junto con otras categorías de poder y su relación con la encarnación de la vida y con el sufrimiento; el segundo, “Reflexiones sobre la imagen y el método”, contiene una discusión sobre la fotografía y la metodología utilizada en la investigación; el tercero, Análisis Temático, combina la teoría de la presente disertación con los datos empíricos para analizar cómo las imágenes de sufrimiento construyen al refugiado mientras, además, también se discute cómo las imágenes de sufrimiento también siguen estructuras objetivas y divisiones existentes en la sociedad. Los resultados obtenidos fueron importantes para evidenciar que los discursos producidos por los medios a través de imágenes de sufrimiento generaron varios discursos: 1) Cuando se retrata el trabajo humanitario se utiliza el sufrimiento a través del encuadre de rostros y una exhibición de expresiones de niños y cuerpos militarizados generando un ambiente emocional diferente al duelo; 2) También está la producción de estigmas a través de las fotografías al colocar los cuerpos de los refugiados como contaminantes y sacar sus rostros de los marcos; 3) El sufrimiento en las fotografías de refugiados reprodujo dominaciones existentes en sus esquemas simbólicos de sociedad, así como el rol de género en relación al sufrimiento.

Título: “A arma que eu tinha era fazer música”: o movimento punk como estilo de vida e expressão política em Aracaju Autor(es): Galvão, Letícia Oliveira Feijão Abstract: The purpose of this work is to analyze how the punk movement in the city of Aracaju, capital of the state of Sergipe, structures itself as a lifestyle in which political expression can be conveyed through art. The research's guiding questions were: to what extent can punk be understood as a lifestyle and a form of artivism? How is this lifestyle expressed in the city of Aracaju? And how did it change since its early years for different generations of punks? The methodology was based on a review of the literature on urban and youth cultures, the punk movement, lifestyles and political participation, on a survey of data on the manifestations of the punk scene in Aracaju, on the direct observation of shows and events organized by the scene, and on the use of content analysis and the documentary method of interpretation for the analysis of their respective artistic productions. The text is divided into four chapters: the first one presents a discussion on new cultural identities in the midst of post-modernity and globalization, as well as on the emergence of punk in the global North and in Brazil; the second chapter brings an in-depth study on punk in Aracaju, the formation process of the local scene and its internal dynamics; the third chapter deals with questions about gender, generation and spatiality; and the fourth and final chapter brings an analysis of the do-it-yourself ethos and of art as a vehicle of political expression for punk in Aracaju. Based on the discussions carried out in this dissertation, it was possible to conclude that urban/youth cultures are inserted as identity groups that present specific demands in contemporary societies, and that artistic production can occupy a central role in their modalities of political activism - which could be seen from different perspectives in the punk movement in Aracaju.
