After drawing a comparison with other films on the subject of transgendering, I discuss notions of embodiedness and the construction of the subject by placing them in the context of theories about the body in Brazilian ethnology. My purpose is to offer some elements for a reflection on the experiences at/of the margins as a way of renewing the theoretical debates in feminist and gender studies. The bodily experience of 'becoming the other' dramatizes the mechanisms that are in play in the construction of difference and can be seen as an anti-hierarchical force destabilizing dominant politics of subjectivity.

Serviço Social: Gênero, raça/etnia, gerações e sexualidade

Revista Katálysis, Nov 30, 2018

Contemporary critical thinking has affirmed the centrality of the articulation between gender, cl... more Contemporary critical thinking has affirmed the centrality of the articulation between gender, class, race, ethnicity, sexuality, generations and other social categories to understand inequalities, oppression, violence and social experiences in general. In short, to figure out the dialectic of oppression and resistances. The starting point is the limit of seeking a comprehension about contemporary inequalities from a single social marker or matrix of difference. Feminism (in academia and movements), the anti-racist thought and struggle and the black movement, anti and post-colonial movements and theories, LGBT movements, and studies, among others, denounced the paradox of modernity. On one side, there is the cult of the universal Human, as the subject of reason, of the political subject and the subject of right, and of the psychological Self. On the other side, there is the production of differences and hierarchies of all kinds that show differentiated and asymmetrical access (and sometimes the complete no access) to the position of being considered human, to the goods and wealth produced, to recognition as a subject of rights or as a political subject 1. This paradox has been and is, part of the strategies of domination, which emphasize the idea of universality and equality, at the same time producing and exploiting differences as a device of power and exploitation. Thus, in the political and social arrangements that gave rise to capitalist modernity, women were removed from political and public life and stripped of their rights, with the justification of biological sexual difference. Likewise, slavery and racial oppression were justified by racial theories and the discourse of white and Western supremacy. Therefore, the same discourse that worshiped the idea of a universal subject, holder of rights (human), naturalized and ontologized the differences, ignoring that historically they are fundamentally constructed differently. On the other hand, throughout history, the recognition of the multiple oppressions and the way they cross and articulate have become an essential instrument of the organization, struggle, and resistance. The literature on articulations and intersections between different forms of oppression points out the first moment of criticism on the various meanings of social experience and inequality in social movements of the 1960s and 1970s. The criticism is found in the black feminism in the United States, which denounced the white, middle-class and heteronormative character of hegemonic feminism at that time 2 ; in the left-wing feminism in several countries, which sought to articulate the struggle of women for the class struggle; in the lesbian women's movement, which questioned heterosexual hegemony in feminism and called for a link between feminism and women's rights and gay and lesbian rights, among other demands. In social movements as well as in academic works and reflections, articulating the different oppressions has become central to understand social inequality and to elaborate strategies of resistance and emancipation. This was particularly important through the three dimensions-class, race, and gender 3-in the first moment, and more contemporaneously with the observation of other markers of difference, such as sexuality, ethnicity, generations, and disability. In 1989 black jurist and scholar Kimberly Crenshaw (1989) formulated the concept of intersectionality to give centrality to the relation between race and gender and to think of these two experiences in a theoretical and articulated way. For a black woman, the experience of being a woman could not be seen independently

D'abord journaliste, puis, et toujours, anthropologue engagee sur le terrain, Sonia MALUF, par le biais de ses interrogations sur les recits de sorcellerie, nous fait traverser l'experience du Sujet. Mais qu'est-ce que le sujet ? La femme est-elle un Sujet de l’experience, ou bien juste une entite biologique qui doit se justifier constamment ? Le concept de « biolegitimite », emprunte a Didier Fassin, est alors developpe par Sonia MALUF dans une demarche de denonciation de la condition feminine au Bresil. En effet, elle revoque la medicalisation de la femme comme condition de reconnaissance sociale. Sonia MALUF fait alors trois propositions majeures : reconnaitre la femme comme Sujet politique ; assurer la presence des femmes dans les debats et l’elaboration des projets politiques ; aborder le Sujet, non pas de facon statistique, mais qualitative, ce qui revient a valoriser et a en...

Este artigo trata da emergência de um campo de interseção entre diferentes formas de espiritualidade, práticas terapêuticas alternativas e experiências espirituais e religiosas ecléticas por segmentos de classes médias urbanas no Sul do Brasil. Diferentes denominações têm sido utilizadas para definir essas experiências: novas espiritualidades ou novas religiosidades, terapias paralelas, alternativas ou holistas, terapias psicomísticas, terapias pós-psicanalíticas, nebulosa místico-esotérica, nebulosa de heterodoxias, terapias neo-religiosas, nova consciência religiosa, etc. Diversas publicações, porém, já convencionam tratar esse fenômeno sob a denominação geral de religiosidades da Nova Era. Apesar de se tratar de um fenômeno do mundo contemporâneo, constata-se uma especificidade brasileira dada por uma confluência entre o terapêutico e o religioso, por uma tradição de ecletismo e circularidade religiosa e pela informalidade das práticas terapêuticas. Neste estudo, busca-se compreender essas novas configurações da vivência espiritual menos a partir de uma análise das doutrinas ou de um "campo religioso" particular e mais do ponto de vista de experiências e de itinerários pessoais. Entendemos que são esses itinerários de vida singulares que ajudam a tecer e dar um sentido a esses cruzamentos de diferentes tradições e cosmologias religiosas e espirituais, configurando o que se poderia chamar de uma religiosidade além do templo e do texto.

A partir de uma pesquisa etnográfica realizada em 2010 e 2011, com o objetivo de analisar criticamente o processo da reforma psiquiátrica brasileira, do ponto de vista de usuários/as dos serviços de saúde mental, problematiza-se a categoria 'usuário/a' e aponta-se para a complexidade e a relevância das experiências singulares e institucionais desses sujeitos na consolidação da política pública de saúde mental no Brasil. As análises indicam a necessidade de conferir um estatuto epistemológico ao saber produzido por tais sujeitos no contexto da reforma psiquiátrica brasileira. PALAVRAS-CHAVE Política social. Desinstitucionalização. Sujeitos da pesquisa. ABSTRACT This article aims to reflect about the statute of the subjects-users in the context of the Brazilian psychiatric reform.

Para tanto, desenvolve uma análise dos dados de uma etnografia realizada nos anos de 2010 e 2011, nas cidades brasileiras de Joinville-SC e Barbacena-MG, assim como em Torino, Trieste e Gorizia na Itália, que teve como sujeitos os usuários e as usuárias dos serviços de saúde mental. As questões que norteiam as discussões dizem respeito à presença significativa do gênero nas experiências de desinstitucionalização desencadeadas pelo processo da reforma psiquiátrica brasileira, nas práticas assistenciais e nos modos de subjetivação de mulheres e homens que frequentam os serviços substitutivos ao hospital psiquiátrico. Palavras-chave: Gênero. Modos de subjetivação. Saúde mental. Reforma psiquiátrica.

It develops a data analysis from an ethnographic study conducted between 2010 and 2011, in the Brazilian cities of Joinville-SC and Barbacena-MG as well as in Turin, Trieste and Gorizia in Italy. The guiding questions for these discussions relate to the significant presence of gender in the experiences launched by the deinstitutionalization process along the psychiatric reform in Brazil, regarding the care practices and the modes of subjectivity of women and men as users of the services that substituted the psychiatric hospital.
