    Work and cooperation

    Laboreal Dossier

    If human beings are the result of a historical process and not the product of a pre-established plan, it is important to emphasize the significance of cooperative actions for their preservation throughout this process. A path in which work – as a constitutive element of our species – plays a decisive role in these actions. How has cooperation been taking place in formal and informal work activities? How have the current modes of management and their evaluation and training systems contributed to the construction or weakening of cooperative acts at work? What are the requirements to build cooperation?

    Living Mobilities: Pathways, Directions and Policies

    In 2016, we met in Braga to discuss experiences about living mobilities, and debate reflections and results of research on (new) cultures of time, space and distance. Two years later, we travel South. In Évora, 2018, we intend to maintain the theme and broaden the debate on mobility in the contemporary world, looking particularly at its pathways, directions and policies. We now have a significant theoretical-conceptual knowledge about mobility, its senses, scales and experiences. This knowledge is shaped by the great questions that inspire contemporary social theorization around the uses, appropriations and representations of time and space. From what unites them and also from what separates them

    A educação e os sentidos de futuro em contextos de incertezas no Brasil e em Portugal

    VI colóquio Luso-Brasileiro de sociologia da educação

    Vivemos um tempo duro e de incertezas. Porém, o texto de Galeano nos provoca a pensar que é um tempo que se abre para novas expectativas para se pensar a educação, para continuar a produzir outros modos de olhar e escutar, de compreender e interpretar em outras direções e é tempo de novas (re)construções. Para escapar ou amenizar as incertezas desse tempo é preciso produzir conhecimento crítico que indague o cotidiano e provoque reflexões e participações ativas. No sentido de Galeano e Freire, é preciso refletir, compreender e fazer para mudar o que somos e para transformarmos o mundo.

    Municipalisation and urban management in Mozambique

    Le Mozambique est encore très largement géré par l'administration de l'État central: il n'y a que 58 municipalités, toutes urbaines. La questionne est donc très politique, puisque toute avancée de la municipalisation permet à l'opposition d'acquérir plus de poids, même si le parti au pouvoir garde le contrôle sur la majorité d'entre elles. Ce colloque international aura lieu une dizaine de jours après la tenue des élections municipales d'octobre 2018, qui seront un test grandeur nature pour les élections présidentielles et législatives de l'année suivante...

    Students' come and go. Unpacking the effects of academic mobility in urban metabolism and regeneration

    The aim and scope of the special session: Academic mobility’s impact in hosting cities and regions is often overlooked as it is perceived as being episodic, with a limited and temporary effect. Against this background, this special session aims to unpack the long-lasting influence of academic mobility in urban metabolism and regeneration processes. From larger to smaller cities and universities, how can we make use of the principles of a circular economy to understand the effects, strengths and limits of academic mobility in regional development? As academic mobility is increasing worldwide, this special session looks at the particular challenges it raises for a sustainable future.

    Alimentação, saúde e ambiente: sustentabilidade e desafios

    Este seminário marca o início da agenda científica do Grupo de Trabalho Transições Tecnológicas: Memórias, Saberes e Práticas, constituído no âmbito do Colégio F3.​ A articulação entre alimentação, saúde e ambiente expressa, de forma inequívoca, a base em que assenta a relação milenar homem / natureza. Privilegiando uma abordagem multidisciplinar, este encontro pretende ser um fórum de discussão em torno das questões básicas do quotidiano das comunidades humanas, em especial as que respeitam à alimentação e à saúde e bem-estar na sua relação com o ambiente, considerando, por um lado, uma perspetiva de análise histórica que contemple diversidades geográficas, culturais e tecnológicas e, por outro, os desafios atuais face à globalização, à escassez de recursos, à sua sobre-exploração e às inovações tecnológicas para superar as dificuldades e / ou as consequências negativas dessa exploração.

    Conference, symposium - Sociology

    2º Congresso Internacional de Redes Sociais

    2nd Congress International of Social Networks

    Social networks occupy today an unprecedented centrality in developed societies. They are one of the most important components in the structure of social relations between people and organizations, through which they share values, expectations, interests and an immensity of flows that place them at a high level of complexity. Knowing and understanding this complexity, as well as the social networks and the multiplicity of configurations that are inherent to them, is one of the biggest challenges of our times. Today, talking about social networks, puts us on a new paradigm in the social sciences. In the dynamics of social relations, the actors involved in it, develop their interactions driven by diverse logics and strategies of action, putting challenges in their analysis and understanding to social intervenors and the academic community. It is in this context that the 2nd edition of CIReS.

    Na era da “pós-verdade”? Esfera pública, cidadania e qualidade da democracia no Portugal contemporâneo

    X Congresso português de sociologia

    A Sociologia Portuguesa tem um papel a desempenhar na análise das emergentes reconfigurações da esfera pública, particularmente no que se refere à centralidade dos comportamentos, atitudes e opiniões construídos no e pelo ciberespaço, embora com intensas repercussões offline, abarcando o domínio do que comummente se apelida de “redes sociais”. Em certa medida, importa perceber as metamorfoses da sociedade da informação e do conhecimento, particularmente quando se disseminam práticas sociais assentes na dissociação entre os protocolos de construção dos factos e a ductilidade epidérmica das opiniões e das emoções, erigidas, tantas vezes, em critério único de relevância argumentativa.
