Escola Pública Municipal: A Gestão Escolar Em Debate / Municipal Public School: School Management under Discussion

Este artigo objetiva analisa a gestão da Escola Pública Municipal de Ensino Fundamental Quilombo dos Palmares e suas ações conceptivas prevalentes em dois instrumentos documentais: o Projeto Político Pedagógico e o Estatuto do Conselho Escolar. Uma análise balizou-se metodologicamente no Materialismo Histórico-dialético enfocando como contradições do objeto mediado por referenciais teórico da literatura especializada. Os resultados revelam que a prática da gestão escolar da escola pública municipal perfaz-se em embates de sujeitos sociais divergentes e contraditórios, contudo, a formatação das ações planificadas nos documentos evidencias aspectos dualista da gestão democrática e gerencial.

Scientific production on COVID-19 in Brazil: a scoping review

Introduction: The national scientific production on COVID-19 has an immediate role in developing policies to tackle the disease and in guiding clinical decisions. Objective: To identify and characterize the scientific production on topics related to COVID-19 in Brazil in national journals from articles published between December 1, 2019, and May 2, 2020. Method: Scoping review, whose search for articles occurred in the SciELO Collection Brazil and on the websites of journal Visa em Debate and Ciência & Saúde Coletiva. The validated database was assessed by a simple quantitative analysis to provide numerical summaries of the characteristics of interest in the literature included in the review. Results: 58 (20.8%) articles from 22 national journals were included. The largest number of articles came from journals that developed fast publishing options or that had been adopting a continuous flow publication model (n = 45, 77.6%). The articles were framed in four categories, among seven defined: Comment (n = 43, 74.1%), Descriptive study (n = 8, 13.8%), Literature review (n = 6, 10.4 %) and Analytical study (n = 1, 1.7%). Only one systematic review was found and the analytical study was classified as an ecological study. April concentrated 86.2% of the articles published, with the peak of publications occurring on April 9 (8 articles). Among 58 articles, “Social isolation, mental health and other aspects related to social behaviours” was the most prevalent theme (n = 14, 24.1%). Conclusions: This scoping review produced a map of scientific production on COVID-19 in Brazil. There are important gaps, especially concerning randomized clinical trials and cohort studies, which need to be filled on further research in our country.

Extended mind, functionalism and personal identity

In this paper, I address one recent objection to Andy Clark and David Chalmers’s functionalist argument for the extended mind thesis (EM). This objection is posed by Kengo Miyazono, who claims that they unjustifiably identify the original cognitive subject with the hybrid one in order to reach their conclusion about the mind extension. His attack consists of three steps: (a) distinguishing hybrid from traditional cognitive subjects based on the systems reply originally directed at Searle’s Chinese room argument; (b) pointing out that the conclusion of the functionalist argument for EM must be rephrased to state that there are hybrid, and not extended, systems with widely realized mental states; and (c) arguing that functionalist EM cannot justify the assumption about the identity of these two kinds of subjects without circularity. I argue that Miyazono’s main argument is ill-founded but that it, nevertheless, points out one important issue, namely, that we need further justification of the identity assumption, without which EM loses much of its flavor. Thus, I am going to challenge Miyazono’s argument, provide a reinterpretation of the argumentation in the EM debate, defend the possibility of wide and extended selves, and offer a justification of the identity assumption, which I find crucial not only for vindicating EM but also for differentiating EM from other similar theses, such as the thesis about group minds.

Engano do povo inglês ao fetichismo da representação: Luiz Roberto Salinas Fortes, escritor político

Este artigo visa perpassar a trajetória de Luiz Roberto Salinas Fortes, realizando um recorte sob a seguinte perspectiva: retomando seus estudos sobre Rousseau, examinaremos como sua formação filosófica serviu como ferramenta para que, nos últimos anos de sua vida, pudesseconstituir uma escrita crítica e de intervenção, cuja questão central gira em torna da noção de democracia. Neste sentido, na década de 1980 é organizada uma coletânea intitulada “A Constituinte em Debate”, obra na qual escreve um texto fundamental para pensarmos e compreendermos os impasses que circundavam o período de formação da Constituinte. Neste artigo, Salinas Fortes se preocupa com questões que poderiam afastar o processo de suas finalidades democratizantes. Em poucas palavras, a questão era como realizar uma democracia efetiva noBrasil, tendo em vista os arrepios que o conceito de “democracia direta” causava entre aqueles que Salinas Fortes apelida de “liberais”. Prescindindo de um debate público mais extenso e de um envolvimento mais direto da população na formação das normas constitucionais, termos como “soberania”, “igualdade”, “poder do povo”, e, sobretudo, as questões relacionadas aos usos do conceito de “democracia representativa”, corriam, então, o risco de serem corriqueiramenteutilizados ideologicamente, de forma a encobrir os reais problemas que se colocavam nesta fase de transição. Segundo Salinas Fortes, falhar em relação a este debate público seria adentrarmos em um “arremedo de democracia”: eis, então, que entra em cena o papel crucial do escritor político e do intelectual público. É neste contexto que surge uma privilegiada questão, ainda hoje a ser respondida: como realizar, no Brasil, um projeto de cidadania plena?

Estratégia para priorização de denúncias com risco potencial relativas a serviços de saúde

Introduction: The Sanitary Surveillance of Health Services receives daily denunciations that refer to situations of risk that can hardly be measured quantitatively and attribute to some type of specific damage, in a context of great uncertainty. Objective: Considering such situations should be adequately addressed under the health risk paradigm, this work had as objective identifying notions about risk and its forms of analysis in the scope of Sanitary Surveillance of Health Services, as well as the existence of strategies and models in the analysis and treatment of denunciations. Method: An extensive literature review (through the Regional Portal of the BVS, databases SciELO and SciELO Books, and the journal Visa em Debate) was conducted. Results: Although the results point to a relatively recent discussion regarding the model of potential risk analysis as an operational concept for the field of health surveillance in health services, there is no description of strategies or models applied to the analysis or treatment of whistleblowing. Thus, it is discussed and proposed a strategy for the initial analysis of reports with potential risk, which seeks to bring minimally objective criteria, in a field marked by enormous subjectivity. Conclusions: We conclude by indicating that the presented strategy is an initial instrument for the management of whistleblowing that must be discussed and adapted to the reality and context of health surveillance agencies.

Cuadernos Médico Sociales from Rosario, Argentina, and other Latin American social medicine journals from the 1970s and 1980s.

In the 1970s and 1980s, a series of journals were founded to disseminate ideas from Latin American social medicine in various countries across the continent, during the early stage of a movement that would later become institutionalized in Brazil under the name "collective medicine." In this article, we look at the principal characteristics of those endeavors: Revista Centroamericana de Ciencias de la Salud, Saúde em Debate, Salud Problema, Revista Latinoamericana de Salud and Cuadernos Médico Sociales. We focus in particular on Cuadernos Médico Sociales, published in Rosario, Argentina. We analyze the conditions under which this publication emerged, the editorial processes it followed, and the central role played by Carlos Bloch, its founder and managing editor.

Medicina comunitaria: introducción a un análisis crítico

This article by Jairnilson Silva Paim, originally published in 1976 in the journal Saude em Debate belonging to the Centro Brasileiro de Estudos de Saude (CEBES), makes an analysis of the concept of "community", together with the use of the expressions "community health" and "community medicine" related to the proposal of integral medicine and preventive medicine. Its publication in Spanish in the Founding Texts section points at the historical reconstruction of a movement originated in Latin America as social and/or collective medicine more than four decades ago. In the case of Brazil, it has, as clear antecedents, the work of Sergio Arouca O Dilema preventivista: contribuicao para a compreensao e critica da medicina preventiva and Cecilia Donnangelo's ones Medicina e sociedade: o medico e seu mercado de trabalho and Medicina e estrutura social: o campo da emergencia da medicina comunitaria. These three texts are the product of a PhD. thesis and free teaching, written in the early seventies as well as the articles we are publishing and others that the CEBES recovers in its 2008 special issue with the title Saude em Debate: Fundamentos da Reforma Sanitaria.

The history of a movement: Saúde em Debate magazine and Brazilian health reform.

This article traces significant moments in the history of the magazine Saúde em Debate - sourcing references and information from documents, historical studies, editions of the magazine, academic work and interviews with physicians and writers who contributed to its creation. In its 39 years of existence, although there may have been variations in the magazine's editorial policy, its role as a means for exchange of ideas and debate on critical health thinking, and making a contribution by in some way intervening in the Brazilian political process, has not changed. The magazine established itself with a firm reputation as a vehicle of scientific communication especially in the areas of health policy and management, expanding the scope of subjects over time. Among the challenges it has faced, as well as that of financial sustenance, has been its role as an instrument for dissemination of Latin American thinking in the field of health.

A revista Saúde em Debate como fonte e objeto de estudo

This research note is about a study of Centro Brasileiro de Estudos da Saúde (Brazilian Center for Health Studies, Cebes) and the sanitation reform movement conducted within the ambit of the History of Science and Public Health program at Casa de Oswaldo Cruz. The study focuses on Saúde em Debate, the periodical published by Cebes, because of the importance it had during its ten-year existence. The use of the periodical in the research brought to light some issues concerning the participation of its members in the sanitation reform. It is shown how the use of the publication as a source and object of study in research in the area of health deserves broader investigation.

A Reforma Psiquiátrica nas Publicações da Revista “Saúde em Debate” entre 1985 e 1995

In this paper we make a study of related articles about the Brazilian psychiatric reform published in the Saúde em Debate Magazine from february/1985 to june/1995. 17 texts were examined in two blocks: 1989-1991 and 1992-1994, according to their main axis: assistance model, citizenship and paw. It was observed that this theme is relatively recent in the magazine, in consonance with the history of the psychiatric reform process. The heterogeneity of the reform proposes, that is comprehensible due the Brazilian regional diversity and several interests at take, express it in the publications. The analyzed texts make theoretical reflections from concrete experiences guided to the reform process. KEY WORDS: Nursing; Psychiatry; Mental Health, Health Policy.

Ciência em Debate: jornalismo científico nas ondas do rádio

The testimony presented in this article aims at showing how it is possible to reach dialogue between the scientist-researcher and the journalist. The Ciencia em Debate (Science in Debate) radio program's experience, broadcast by Radio Unesp-FM, in Bauru, Midwestern Sao Paulo State, between 1996 and 1999, showed that it is possible to turn scientific interviews into dialogue and, also, humanize the scientist-researcher. By doing this, the scientist-researcher's jargon, marked much more as a defense or superiority mechanism, has been slowly substituted by simple explanations, without any loss in complexity. The Ciencia em Debate experience was, most of all, the democratization and enhancement of knowledge as part of the public wealth.

Studies on women in three public health journals: a bibliographical review

The Social Construction of Black Feminist Thought

Sojourner Truth, Anna Julia Cooper, Ida Wells Barnett, and Fannie Lou Hamer are but a few names from a growing list of distinguished African-American women activists. Although their sustained resistance to Black women's victimization within interlocking systems of race, gender, and class oppression is well known, these women did not act alone.' Their actions were nurtured by the support of countless, ordinary African-American women who, through strategies of everyday resistance, created a powerful foundation for
