The objective of this article is to discuss the ideological nature of Jürgen Habermas' theoretical framework regarding his concept of public sphere within his deliberative democratic theory and its assimilation by social management in the field of administration. The study intends to contribute offering a critical approach towards the influence of Habermas on the notion of social management, mainly with regard to the category of public sphere, by relying on the theme of ideology in a capitalist State and a class society. We analyze the evolution and continuity of Habermas' thought about the public sphere and discuss the consonance of the perspective of social management with the assumptions of Habermas' deliberative theory. We then argue that Habermas' theoretical framework points to an ideology of consensus on social developments. In addition, we claim that, inasmuch as Habermas presumes the possibility of a wholly spontaneous and unfettered dialogue, he ends up designing, idealistically, the intersubjective communication and the public sphere as an "ideal" discursive instance – as aprioristic guarantees of success. We conclude that the "real" public sphere should not be conceived as an arena of idealistic communicative conditions but as a genuinely contentious and asymmetrical deliberative space. In addition, an effective public sphere is supposed to encompass both informal public opinion formation and formal decision making, that is, it should promote real sharing of decision-making power, as sustained by the perspective of social management. ; El objetivo de este ensayo es discutir el carácter ideológico de los lineamientos teóricos de Jürgen Habermas acerca de su noción de esfera pública, en el ámbito de su teoría democrática deliberativa, y su apropiación teórica y conceptual por la gestión social en el campo de la administración. Nuestra intención es contribuir con un enfoque crítico a la influencia del pensamiento habermasiano en la conformación del concepto de gestión social, especialmente en lo que se refiere a la categoría de la esfera pública, recurriendo al tema ideología a la luz del Estado capitalista y de la sociedad de clases. Para ello, analizamos la evolución y la continuidad del pensamiento de Habermas acerca de la categoría de la esfera pública y discutimos el alineamiento de la gestión social con los presupuestos teórico-conceptuales de la teoría deliberativa habermasiana. A continuación, argumentamos que el marco teórico habermasiano apunta a una ideología de consenso sobre los desarrollos sociales. Asimismo, argumentamos que, en la medida en que Habermas presume la posibilidad de un diálogo completamente espontáneo y no condicionado, proyecta idealistamente la comunicación intersubjetiva y la esfera pública –como instancia "ideal" de discurso– como garantías apriorísticas del éxito. Concluimos que la esfera pública "real" debe ser entendida menos como una arena de condiciones comunicativas idealistas y más como un espacio deliberativo genuinamente conflictivo y asimétrico, y que una esfera pública efectiva debe comprender tanto la formación informal de la opinión pública como la toma formal de decisiones colectivas, es decir, debe promover la verdadera compartición del poder de decisión, como preconiza la gestión social. ; O objetivo deste artigo é discutir o caráter ideológico dos delineamentos teóricos de Jürgen Habermas acerca de sua noção de esfera pública no bojo de sua teoria democrática deliberativa, bem como sua apropriação teórico-conceitual pela gestão social no campo da administração. Nosso propósito é contribuir com uma abordagem crítica à influência do pensamento habermasiano na conformação da concepção de gestão social, sobretudo no que tange à categoria da esfera pública, recorrendo ao tema ideologia à luz do Estado capitalista e da sociedade de classes. Para tanto, analisamos a evolução e as continuidades do pensamento de Habermas acerca da categoria da esfera pública e discutimos o alinhamento da gestão social com os pressupostos teórico-conceituais da teoria deliberativa habermasiana. Em seguida, defendemos o argumento de que o esforço teórico habermasiano aponta uma ideologia do consenso quanto aos desenvolvimentos sociais, bem como o de que, ao supor a possibilidade de um diálogo completamente espontâneo e não condicionado, Habermas acaba por projetar idealisticamente a comunicação intersubjetiva e a esfera pública enquanto instância "ideal" de discurso como garantias apriorísticas de sucesso. Concluímos que a esfera pública "real" deve ser tomada menos como arena de condições comunicativas idealísticas e mais como espaço deliberativo originariamente conflitual e assimétrico e que uma esfera pública eficaz deve abranger tanto a formação informal da opinião pública quanto a tomada formal de decisão coletiva, isto é, deve promover a efetiva partilha de poder decisório, tal como preconizada pela gestão social.

The present article relates to the presence of several normal esthetic patterns in contemporary dance, with certain hegemonic cultural powers, using flow and friction concepts. The aim of this article is to highlight how much coreografhic elements can show of political performances in it's esthetic performance. The axis of our thematic analysis send us thus to Canclini, Gilroy and Louppe concepts, processes and theorizes of hibridization, acculturation and assimilation. ; O presente artigo relaciona a presença de variados padrões estéticos, usuais na Dança Contemporânea, com certos poderes culturais hegemônicos utilizando conceitos de fluxo e fricção. O objetivo deste artigo é ressaltar o quanto elementos coreográficos podem apresentar de performance política na sua performance estética. Nosso eixo de análise temática remete assim aos conceitos e processos de hibridização, aculturação e assimilação presentes em Canclini, Gilroy e Louppe.

Num cruzamento de videoarte e antropologia visual, o vídeo LA MILAGROSA foca-se no universo da Santería, sincretismo religioso entre divindades africanas e religiosidades católicas, que se gerou em populações afrodescendentes escravizadas em Cuba, segundo entrecruzados processos de assimilação e resistência face aos poderes coloniais, continuando a existir após a independência, inclusive num contexto oficialmente ateu. Testemunhando a perpetuação da mitologia Ioruba, o ensaio visual conduz-nos por rituais e altares domésticos de uma santera, revelando um simbólico e vasto panteão de deuses tribais africanos representado por santos, cantos, objetos e cores presentes em diversos elementos (ex: flores, tecidos, doces, velas, madeiras, colares de contas, etc). A narrativa abre-se posteriormente a espaços públicos de tipologia católica que se tornaram icónicos para práticas da Santería: o cemitério Cristóval Colón (Cristóvão Colombo) e o santuário de São Lázaro. ; A cross between video art and visual anthropology, the video LA MILAGROSA focuses on the Santeria universe, which is a religious syncretism between African deities and Catholicism originated in Cuba from enslaved Afro-descendant populations, according to intertwined assimilation processes and colonial power resistance, lingering after the political independence, even in an officially atheist context. By witnessing the Ioruba mythology perpetuation, the visual essay takes us through santera's rituals and domestic altars, revealing a vast and symbolic pantheon of African tribal gods represented by saints, street corners, objects and colours present in several elements (for example, flowers, fabrics, sweets, candles, woods, bead necklaces, etc.). The narrative later opens itself to Catholic typology public spaces that became iconic for the practice of Santeria: the Cristóval Colón (Christopher Columbus) cemetery and the San Lázaro (Saint Lazarus) sanctuary.

Context: With the growing denunciations of violence and injustices in the social relationship, inside and outside schools, education based on human rights is insurgent in the current system of teaching and learning. Using the concept of school as a process of scientific, social and political construction, we planned the teaching and learning process of chemical interactions using the art of graffiti as a playful activity. Objectives: Reflection on chemistry teaching beyond the concepts of natural sciences, but also towards social issues to promote an education that transfigures the traditional model established by the hegemonic power during Brazilian history. Design: We use an ethnographic case study as a method. Scenario and Participants: In this way, we chose to bring graffiti art to chemistry workshops, since the paints are fixed on urban walls through chemical interactions between substances, building images and/or protest phrases that make us rethink the injustices and inequalities existing in Brazilian society and to dialogue the emergence of this art in the black movement with the political aspects of Human Rights. Thirteen students enrolled in a state basic education high school in the city of Goiânia-GO, Brazil, joined the workshops on Human Rights, Graffiti and Chemistry. Eight graffiti artists also participated in the workshop for free. Data collection and analysis: We used transcripts of semi-structured interviews and video-recorded workshops to categorise the data, analysing them with the Descending Hierarchical Classification technique and the use of dendrograms performed by the Iramuteq Software. Results: We obtained categories that evidence the chemical understanding of the content of chemical interactions and the socio-political understanding of human rights, and seven drawings on graffiti murals that show this correlation. Conclusions: The transgression of morals and the empowerment of the subordinate promote playfulness in the individual or collective social visibility of individuals, enabling better assimilation of scientific and social content.

Objective: To describe the process of developing and implementing a workshop on nutrition labeling tailored to the needs of diabetic patients. Data synthesis: The study was conducted with members of a diabetes group in Currais Novos/RN. Initially, a review of the existing legislation on labeling was made in order to identify impact points for the diabetic patient. Then, the following themes were selected: diet, light and zero; wholesome food; nomenclature and synonyms to designate sugar; order of ingredients; instructions for use and serving/portion size. After that, a visual support material was elaborated for a better assimilation of information and group activities were devised seeking to offer experiences that would allow to work on some issues in a more agile and practical way, favoring the understanding of information. The individuals actively participated in the activities and also got a glimpse of how to apply the acquired knowledge to their daily lives. Conclusion: The workshops contributed to the deepening of knowledge and the acquisition of skills to handle diabetes, encouraging the protagonism of patients in relation to dietary care. Given the good acceptance of this initiative and the power that such type of information has to improve the quality of life of diabetic patients, it is expected that similar activities are included more often in the repertoire of health care services. doi:10.5020/18061230.2014.p568 ; Objetivo: Describir el proceso de elaboración y ejecución de talleres de rotulación nutricional en el contexto de las necesidades de pacientes diabéticos.
