    Psicologia, socioeducação e racismo: uma análise da atuação da profissional psicóloga nas medidas socioeducativas de meio aberto
    (Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte, 2023-12-05) Silva, Natália Campos da; Paiva, Ilana Lemos de; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-3331-2890; http://lattes.cnpq.br/1588515627010993; Farias, Tadeu Mattos; http://lattes.cnpq.br/1403676057443123; Santos, Luana Isabelle Cabral dos; http://lattes.cnpq.br/2343504076877116
    Racism is a social phenomenon of great impact, characterized by the Federal Council of Psychology – CFP (2017) as a broad, complex, systemic, and violent ideology that permeates cultural, political, economic, ethical, and subjective aspects of people’s lives. This research focuses on structural racism, exploring the role of psychologists in institutions within the socioeducational system. Although we can identify a growing contribution of Psychology to the issue of racial relations, such contributions are still scarcely disseminated in professional practice, making this study an important update in this field of knowledge and practice. The general objective was to analyze the role of psychologists in addressing racism within the openenvironment socio-educational system in Natal/RN. The specific objectives include (1) identifying theoretical and technical frameworks, (2) analyzing perspectives on structural racism, and (3) understanding contributions to both the reproduction and confrontation of racism. A qualitative approach was adopted, based on action-research methodology, with Historical and Dialectical Materialism as its theoretical foundation. The study was conducted at a Specialized Reference Center for Social Assistance – CREAS, in the city of Natal/RN. Data collection involved participant observation, field journals, analysis of informational and multidisciplinary reports, as well as Freirean culture circles with the four psychologists who make up the Socio-Educational Measures (MSE) teams. Data analysis led to the identification of two main nuclei of meaning: (1) Racism, socioeconomic vulnerability, and absence of the State, and (2) Racism, organized crime, and the context of violence. These nuclei were formed based on indicators and pre-indicators collected during the culture circles. The results reveal the complexity of the challenges faced by psychologists in the Brazilian socio-educational system. The research participants acknowledge the presence of structural racism in their daily work, emphasizing the need for socially engaged interventions to combat it and to promote more effective actions within the context of socio-educational measures. These findings highlight the importance of continuous and comprehensive training to improve knowledge and practice in this field.

    Narrativas de percursos formativos em psicanálise nas encruzilhadas interseccionais
    (Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte, 2025-04-10) Araújo, Maria Cecilia dos Santos; Simoni, Ana Carolina Rios; https://orcid.org/0000-0001-9805-6966; http://lattes.cnpq.br/7427786733929741; http://lattes.cnpq.br/0990813316700076; Franco, Wilson de Albuquerque Cavalcanti; http://lattes.cnpq.br/7896142610922698; Leite, Jader Ferreira; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-6045-531X; http://lattes.cnpq.br/0115447283248209; Gomes, Maria Aparecida de França; http://lattes.cnpq.br/7970650675313579
    The psychoanalytical training, since the early history of the psychoanalytic movement, has been crossed by political issues are often reproduced domination and power through the dictates of their institutions. Intersectionality, as an important research and political action tool that promotes dialogues between different fields, emerges in this work to support issues that emerged in the researcher's formative clinical paths, by making visible intersections between axes of subordination of race, gender/sexuality and class that are silenced in the psychoanalytic field and in the social fabric. Considering this, that research aimed to listen how violence based on gender/sexuality, race and class, in their intersectionalities, appear in the unique training paths of analysts in Natal-RN. More specifically, it aimed to analyze how these types of violence in their intersectionalities are heard and managed by analysts in their clinical practices, theoretical studies, supervision and personal analysis, as well as witnessing such violence in meetings with research participants. The research method was guided by theoretical-methodological operators of freudian and ferenczian psychoanalysis, such as transference, mutual analysis, trauma, denial and testimony, in dialogue with the critical perspective of intersectionality. It involved individual listening sessions carried out at two different times with four psychoanalysts who experience or have experienced their clinical practice, their personal analysis, clinical supervision and theoretical studies in Natal-RN, in addition to continuous work of attention and recording of the researcher's affects and memories in a field diary, here called a diary of fragments. The analysis of the experience traversed the paths of research from the emergence of the research questions to the production of a destination for them through the writing of narratives of the unique formative paths, shared with the participants. The process of producing narratives showed that, although critical reflection on intersectional violence is incipient or absent in the training institutions in Natal-RN, the analysts experienced intersectional readings, racialization processes, racial literacy, and the elasticity of the analytical technique in creative and transformative clinic experiences that arise from working with people marked by racism, sexism, poverty, and social segregation, in their intersectionalities. The narrative's constructions gave rise to mutual analysis and testimony at the intersectional crossroads of the research scenes, making the colonial violence that historically silences and erases the stories of black women visible. This experience called for the racialization of transference towards the decolonization of psychoanalysis, as an ethical-political and theoretical-methodological gesture that affirms the inseparability between clinical and political practice in psychoanalysis.

    Dreams are legitimate psychic acts that play an important role in different cultures and social formations. Their creation and collective sharing act as an excellent social seismograph that bears witness not only to the dreamer, but to their entire political and cultural environment. Despite this, dreams are not given their due status in the post-industrial city, being relegated to a place of oblivion and contempt. The emptiness of experience, characteristic of modernity, affects the field of dreams. In view of this, the aim of this research is to investigate the powers of the collective sharing of dreams in the production of health, the creation of life and practices of resistance to the capitalist order. To this end, the methodological device of the Tent of Dreams was developed, which found fertile ground for its flourishing at the Center for Coexistence and Culture (CECCO) in Natal/RN. As a result, a path was traversed through the scenes of the research field, along with their proper presentation, images, dream narratives and discussions based on the epistemological territory of reference.

    Pensando com Lucien Sève: a personalidade na periferia do capitalismo

    Lucien Sève is a French Marxist philosopher who stood out, above all, for his studies on the relationship between personality theory and Marxism. Despite the importance of his work, Sève is still a little-studied author in Brazil. This paper aimed to study his best-known work, Marxism and the Theory of Personality, published in 1969. Our aim was to analyze the relevance of his ideas and categories in our day and the possible contributions that his thinking could have for thinking about the relationship between psychology and Marxism in Brazil. The main results found indicate that, despite the limitations of his work, Sève's theory of personality, by articulating social theory and theory of the individual, provides important contributions for thinking about a Marxist psychology in Brazil that is deeply linked to the tradition of studies of national reality. In this way, it paves the way for the development of studies on the formation of individuals in the conditions of Brazilian reality, that is, in the conditions of the periphery of capitalism. From this perspective, we seek to establish some points of contact between the study of the individual, based on Sève, and the study of types in literary criticism, based on G. Lukács and R. Schwarz. In short, Sève's ideas open the way for a study of society that allows us to understand the individual and, in turn, a study of the individual that allows us to understand certain aspects of our society.

    Ser-pessoa-idosa institucionalizada: a experiência de residentes em ILPIs filantrópicas de Natal
    (Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte, 2025-03-28) Belmiro, Thainá Souza Cruz; Azevedo, Ana Karina Silva; http://lattes.cnpq.br/4953170483515023; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8510508173150068; Leão, Denise Maria Maciel; Maux, Ana Andrea Barbosa
    The discussion on population aging and its social implications is an increasingly relevant topic in contemporary society. With the extension of life expectancy and a significant increase in the number of elderly individuals over recent decades, we have been called upon to reflect on the phenomenon of aging in this historical moment and its peculiarities – such as the growing demand for the institutionalization of the elderly in Long-Term Care Institutions (ILPIs), which represent the most common form of care for the elderly outside the family setting. This study aimed to understand the experience of being elderly in philanthropic ILPIs in Natal, Rio Grande do Norte. Employing a phenomenological-hermeneutic research approach inspired by the thought of philosopher Martin Heidegger, we explored the meanings attributed to institutionalization by the elderly themselves, drawing from their lived experiences. Individual narrative interviews were conducted with three participants residing in different ILPIs, unveiling diverse perspectives on that experience in light of their distinct life histories and existential contexts. In our encounters with them, themes emerged such as the rupture and reconstruction of familial bonds, challenges to autonomy and freedom within the institution, and the possibilities of constructing (or not) a home within an ILPI. The findings highlight the complexity and uniqueness of the experience of being an institutionalized elderly individual, as well as the need for care policies and practices that recognize the particularities of each elderly person, valuing the potential inherent in their lives.

    Mulheres, militância política e ditadura civil-militar (1964 1985): como se conta a história de Iara Iavelberg?
    (Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte, 2025-03-28) Bandeira, Heloise Calado; Dantas, Cândida Maria Bezerra; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8181024208435709; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-2160-3375; http://lattes.cnpq.br/3005938435199173; Leite, Jader Ferreira; Rosa, Susel Oliveira da
    The research aims to recover memories of a Brazilian historical period through the experiences of women, analyzing, from an intersectional feminist perspective, the meanings of the militancy of guerrilla fighter Iara Iavelberg; the differences in the discourses produced about Iara by different authors and historical moments; and the process of constituting a militant identity through Iara's life trajectory. The research is qualitative, bibliographic, and documentary, adopting the articulation of a post-structuralist and social constructionist perspective. The concept of discursive practices was used to analyze public documents from 1964 to 2024. The sources include the Digital National Library, the National Archive Information System, Brasil: Nunca Mais, and the São Paulo State Truth Commission. In the document analyses, it was possible to discuss the discursive disputes between testimonies and productions by family members and companions about and for Iara, permeated by affection and political admiration, in contrast with the conservative and hegemonic discourse of the dictatorial state. The institutional dispute over the construction of Iara's memory as someone who promotes social emancipation only becomes possible after the redemocratization and gains strength with the National Truth Commission. In addition to the discourse of hatred for transgressing the dictatorial period and the gender performance expected by the patriarchy, the analyses of the construction of a militant identity in Iara discussed the confrontations within leftist movements that intersected with her political practices and the image reinforced in some documents as a "muse of the left." The erasure of women's political actions and resistances should not stop us from producing power also in resistances, articulating relationships that promote life and social emancipation. The production of discourses preserving and celebrating Iara's memory is a way to keep alive the power of resistance she inspired.

    A potência dos restos nas narrativas de sujeitos dissidentes de gênero e sexualidade
    (Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte, 2025-02-24) Rêgo, Larissa Alves do; Simoni, Ana Carolina Rios; https://orcid.org/0000-0001-9805-6966; http://lattes.cnpq.br/7427786733929741; http://lattes.cnpq.br/6022998109646707; Kierniew, Janniny Gautério; Dantas, Cândida Maria Bezerra; Ricardo, Sofia Favero
    From a memory registered in the body, this work emerges in an ethical-political direction of opposing the deadly discourse that assaults the gender and sexuality dissident bodies. If the encounter with cisheteronormativity produces subjects, in this operation, it also produces remains that may be recorded as unspeakable and carry a life potentiality. From the dialogue and tension between psychoanalysis and queer studies, it is proposed that dissident bodies carry the stories of the marks left by the encounter with normativity, which can be made visible and reconstructed as a memory work. Thus, the objective of this work was to co-construct singular narratives with gender and sexuality dissident subjects from Natal/RN and their personal photographic collections. Photography was embraced as an invitation to a rapprochement with the invisibilized remains in the history of a dissident body. In this sense, three narratives were co-constructed, a process that made visible and allowed to name the listening and presence particularities that were produced in the co-construction experiences. Therefore, we propose to name the conditions through which a listening and a presence seem to enable or hinder the work of re-writing the remains in the body. A presence aligned with cisheteronormative ideals ends up reinserting the subject into the deadly normativity circuit, while a vitalizing presence is produced in the recognition that within the remains, there is something to be reignited, through a thread of narrative that allows the reconstruction of both history and the body. We suggest that cisgender hurry insists on blocking the possibilities of naming life in dissidence in order to defend itself from the destabilizations that a dissident body provokes in normative ideals. Finally, we arrive at testimony as an ethical-political work memory to challenge modes of subjectivation and update the discourses of gender and sexuality.

    Experiências estéticas na cidade colonial: poesia slam e a formação de sujeitos políticos em Natal/RN
    (Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte, 2025-02-17) Oliveira, Olga Maria Hawes Fernandes de; Maheirie, Kátia; https://orcid.org/0000-0001-5226-0734; http://lattes.cnpq.br/7689469021584393; http://lattes.cnpq.br/2793832932341961; Prado, Marco Aurélio; Pereira, Maria Teresa Lisboa Nobre; Minchoni, Tatiana
    Since the 1990s, the peripheral literature movement has emerged in Brazil, characterized by the prominence of artists from urban peripheries as a response to segregation in modern cities. Among these, resistance poetry, or slam poetry, has been gaining increasing followers. Poetry battles assess poems based on their political, identity, lyrical, and performative qualities, and have spread worldwide, transforming the cultural landscape, previously closed off to elites, by incorporating diverse social profiles into literature. In the city of Natal/RN, slams have been gaining visibility since 2019, introducing young artists into the political-cultural scene marked by the legacies of colonialism and clientelism system established since the hereditary captaincy period in Rio Grande do Norte. It is in this context that this study arises, with the objective of investigating the aesthetic experiences of peripheral poets in relation to politics in Natal. The Slam Rima Central, one of the pioneers of the slam culture in the city, was chosen as the focus of this study. The research was guided by the notions of aesthetic experience/lived experience in Vygotsky and their incorporation into Jacques Rancière's notion of politics, also in dialogue with the postcolonial feminisms of Judith Butler and Patricia Hill Collins. The approach to the field/topic occurred through bibliographic review, immersion in slam events by observation participant, as well as field diary records. Two interviews were also conducted with the organizers of the slam, the slammasters. The results were organized into three chapters that aim to construct scenes of dissent, inspired by Rancière's scene method. The first chapter discusses the relationship between slam poetry and politics, addressing the production of sensitive regimes in the literary field. In the second, we introduce a slam night and the spatiotemporal disruptions mobilized in the urban setting, investigating the po(etic) practices established by the movement. In the final chapter, we analyze the poetic-musical manifesto of one of the interviewees, considering the litigation surrounding the revision process of the document that determined Natal’s Master Plan. The conclusion is that slams are spaces of poetic experimentation that mobilize the subversion of identities and can foster the emergence of political subjects. Collective Rima Central fosters a space-time of life potentialization, and an aesthetic community responsible for producing the common dissensus in police-like spaces, as well as promoting cultural and identity self-valorization, forming networks of alliances and support crucial for political emancipation and the celebration of peripheral and Potiguar aesthetic expression.

    A sexualidade no envelhecimento feminino: uma compreensão fenomenológica
    (Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte, 2025-03-20) França, Amanda Karênina Galvão de; Azevedo, Ana Karina Silva; http://lattes.cnpq.br/5425634130635834; Barreto, Carmem Lúcia Brito Tavares; Rebouças, Melina Sefora Souza
    Sexuality in female aging is rarely addressed in the social imagination, where elderly women are depicted as caregivers of the family, and also in the academic realm, where most research focuses on the biological aspects of aging, portraying it as synonymous with decline. In contrast to these understandings, we view sexuality as an integral part of female aging, and aging itself as a phenomenon within existence. The objective of this study is to understand how elderly women experience sexuality. This is a phenomenological-hermeneutic Heideggerian study. The research instrument was the narrative interview, conducted with three elderly women, recorded in an affection diary, and interpreted hermeneutically through the interpretive circle. This research allowed us to understand sexuality as an existential aspect and, by acknowledging female aging in its existential dimension beyond the biological, it expanded the understanding of this phase of life, strengthening health care for these women

    Análise de inteligência, leitura, escrita, funções executivas e condições socioeconômicas em alunos de escolas públicas em investigação de transtorno de desenvolvimento intelectual leve

    This study mapped socioeconomic aspects and skills related to reading, writing, and executive functions in students with mild intellectual disability enrolled in Elementary School I and II in public schools of a municipality in Curimataú, Paraíba. The sample consisted of 14 children and adolescents. This study is characterized as a descriptive and exploratory research with a qualitative-quantitative, cross-sectional, and non-parametric approach. The results were obtained from the Socioeconomic and Cultural Questionnaire, the Semi-Structured Interview with guardians, and the cognitive assessment of participants, aiming to compare the outcomes of the conducted investigations. Data were analyzed using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS), version 30.0.0.0 (172). The results revealed performance variations according to prenatal data, socioeconomic conditions, home experience, school environment, cognitive processes (intelligence, language, and executive functions), age, and school year. It was observed that none of the participants had received a clinical diagnosis, suggesting invisibility in cases of mild Intellectual Developmental Disorder (IDD). There was notable economic fragility and social vulnerability, with a per capita income of R$ 350.00 per month. In total, 64.3% of the investigated students had not yet become literate. Among the WISC-IV indices, the greatest cognitive fragility was found in the PRI (Perceptual Reasoning Index). For children with mild IDD, writing without spelling errors becomes a greater challenge compared to word reading. It was found that children with mild IDD are capable of learning and developing; however, this depends on appropriate support and assistance. These findings reinforce the importance of adapted and contextualized educational interventions for this population, with the potential inclusion of programs that stimulate reading, writing, and executive functions while considering the socioeconomic and cognitive particularities of students from underprivileged backgrounds.

    This research project has as its domain of interest the challenges of teaching practice as a source of suffering and illness, with a view to responsibility involved in the socially transforming capacity of that craft. The teacher's work activity, like any other work activitycontributes to the rupture, construction, deconstruction and emancipation of the subject. It is an activity that has essential psychosocial significance and must be considered within the social context in which it is being developed. The challenge of ensuring the common training necessary for the exercise of citizenship is established for the public basic education system, based on the democratization of education. Characterized by crossings of the precarious situation of teaching work, this activity shares the historical legacy of devaluation of the profession, the distance between the prescriptions contained in the national education regulation frameworks and the work that can be done in the face of the available tools, the context of violence in which the periphery schools are inserted and the involvement with social problems that characterize and contribute to the worsening precariousness of public education. In this context, the present master's thesis project chooses as a focus of interest the professional activity of the teacher who works in elementary education in the municipal public network of Natal / RN. The approach of the work activity in question will have as a theoretical framework of reference the perspective of the Clinic of Activity, which proposes the cultural historical notion of the subject understood by Vygotsky, highlighting the importance of the professional gender, since the joint activity of the subjects with others it can be considered as the driving force of a common history, and of the biographical trajectories of each individual worker. The challenge of establishing relationships between the instances of prescribed, real and well-done work is assumed, emphasizing the individual's ability to act collectively, in the face of different situations in their work. The general objective is to analyze the teaching activity, investigating the existing prescriptions for this work, the level of achievement of these prescriptions in concrete work contexts and the ideal work well done by the municipal teachers of Natal / RN. From this purpose, we also seek to observe the extent to which the distance presented between prescribed work and real work impacts the conception of work well done considering the professional context proposed here for analysis. The group of participants to be researched will be the one that includes the multipurpose teacher from the initial years (1st to 5th) of elementary school, in the urban area of Natal-RN, as it is a long and crucial stage of basic education, in which children go through significant changes in the physical, cognitive, affective and social aspects, in addition to the burden of social relevance of the activity of this professional, committed to the process of literacy and basic mathematical and scientific education as a significant learning platform in the school trajectory. The proposed investigation will have a descriptive and clinical-qualitative nature based on three tools proposed for the research: a) descriptive document analysis, b) application of the instruction technique to the double and c) application of a questionnaire on work well done. This work will seek to contribute to the triggering of a critical rethink, with the potential for transformation of the subjectworker in terms of evaluation and possible expansion of their power to act, and realization of the ideal of a job well done in the professional category under analysis.

    This research investigated the experiences of domestic workers who work as day laborers using cleaning apps. Guided by the theoretical framework of historical-cultural psychology and Marxist feminism of the Theory of Social Reproduction, this work was divided into two studies. The first, of a complementary nature, corresponds to the characterization of four platforms/companies operating in the Greater Natal/RN region. Data were collected from information available on their websites, apps, and social networks. The analysis aimed to explain the specificities of the cleaning platform companies and how they operate. Regarding the second study, semi-structured interviews were conducted with four day laborers with experience working using cleaning apps. For this purpose, the application of semi-structured interviews was chosen as the methodology and, for the analysis of the data, two analyses were carried out, intra and inter-case, resulting in the formation of axes and announcers. The integrated analysis of the two studies, that is, of the accounts of the experiences of the cleaning workers and the characterization of the cleaning platforms, made it possible to identify how the management models of the platform companies and how the relationships established in the household sphere of the user-contractor affect the experience of the cleaning workers in this context, resulting in a double subordination, platform company > cleaning workers < usercontractors. This result suggests the identification of a qualitatively different condition of subordination, experienced by the domestic cleaning workers, which is also not observed in other uberized categories.

    The expansion of higher education and changes in the world of work have created a scenario in which a degree does not guarantee employability. This dissertation explored the subjective implications of this reality for the way young graduates perceive and experience work. The aim was to investigate the processes of signification in the work trajectories of young graduates working outside their fields of study or unemployed, using the Trajectory Equifinality Model. The senses and meanings of the young people investigated using this tool were articulated based on memories, affections/disaffection, and dilemmas/tensions related to not working in their field. A two-stage study was carried out. In the first, of a quantitative and complementary nature, a questionnaire was used to describe the work situations of graduates from a public university. The second, qualitative, consisted of ten in-depth interviews. Intra- and inter-case analysis was carried out on the material produced. A total of 590 graduates responded to the questionnaire, showing that almost half (48%) work outside their field and/or in jobs that do not require higher education. The main findings of the second stage indicated that the young people used the meanings of job, career, and vocation to delineate their subjective experiences with work, which was seen as a career or vocation when related to their fields: if it was within their fields, work was associated with personal and professional fulfillment, a dream come true and the opportunity to help others. Outside their field, work was secondary and related only to subsistence. "Gaining" a field of study through a diploma transformed the relationship that the young participants established with work, what they expected from it, and what they wanted to achieve through it. In addition, the meanings “inherited” from the culture proved insufficient to structure the processes of signification, leading the young people to resort to hybridity or “stylizations”.

    This research aimed to analyze the characteristics of the work ideologies present in the daily lives of landless workers in the Fidel Castro and Sabaia Communes, located in CearáMirim/RN. Guided by historical and dialectical materialism and historical-cultural psychology, the study in question sought to go beyond a description of work in the Landless Workers' Movement (MST), by identifying the discourses that guide the practices of the participants, inserted in a society permeated by conflicts and contradictions around work. In the current Brazilian scenario, the MST has become the main opponent of agribusiness because it mobilizes the class struggle, disputing food production and labor relations, through agroecology and cooperation. In this context, through participant observation and semistructured interviews, we spoke with 10 landless workers. With the meanings expressed in these moments, we learned the ideologies responsible for directing the consciousness and action of the participants in relation to the capital-labor conflict in the scenario of the struggle for land. Three ideologies were identified: a) ideology of wage labor; b) ideology of selfemployment and c) ideology of work in the MST. Although the first two ideologies are manifested in the daily lives of participants to preserve the abstract nature of work, we also observe a constant movement of criticism towards them, sustained by the comparison with the work developed in the MST. The emphasis on the affections that permeate the relationship with the land, combined with the valorization of the possibility of producing and accessing healthy food as a result of one's own work, directly contrasts with the conception of work as a simple means of obtaining income. Thus, we believe that the ideology of work in the MST promotes new meanings for both work and life, pointing out paths for the construction of an alternative that challenges the impositions of capital.

    Resistir na intersecção dos sistemas de opressão: interseccionalidade e a produção de saúde mental das mulheres quilombolas do Grilo/PB

    This study analyzed the mental health production conditions of rural quilombola women in the community of Grilo, in the state of Paraíba - where land regularization is still underway - from the perspective of intersectionality and the social determination of mental health. The relationship between mental health and society is addressed in this study, emphasizing the importance of a collective and contextualized approach. The research, qualitative in nature, followed the principles of Popular Education, problematization as a way of developing a critical awareness of the reality under analysis, and used intersectionality in a transversal way. Participatory research was adopted as the methodological approach and sought an in-depth understanding of the experiences of quilombola women, including observing participation, mediating group activities and individual interviews. The researcher's perceptions were recorded in field diaries, since his interaction with the group was fundamental for producing information throughout the process of participant-observation. The focus on dialogicity suggested that changes in thinking can be accompanied by transformative actions and that new experiences enable a change in consciousness through a process of action-reflection-action. We believe that the Culture Circle was a powerful tool for research and care because, based on the problematizations, it made it possible to articulate the unique dimensions of how the intersections of systems of oppression are present in their bodies-territories and how they are recognized in a collectivized reflection, as well as making it possible to build and strengthen collective practices of care and resistance to the problems experienced in daily life, delving into the aspects that shape their relationships with local knowledge, the territory and the solidarity networks of social support and care among women.

    Produção capitalista e reprodução social: a questão de gênero a partir das vivências de mulheres de uma mesma família

    The purpose of this study arises from the encounter between the researcher and the life history of a a black woman who is also a mother and an informal worker. In observing similarities between her biographical narrative and the references to the trajectories of her mother and daughter, in a previously conducted study, this investigation takes shape from a concern about the centrality of labor performed in the realm of social reproduction, alongside the restriction of opportunities within the productive sectors. Thus, the main objective of this research is to analyze how the relationship between exploitation and oppression persists, updates, and faces resistance in the daily lives of women from the same family. The dialogue between the analytical frameworks of the Historical-Cultural Psychology and the Social Reproduction Theory grounds the reflection on how social structures organize social relations, based on specific and differentiated conditions related to the interplay between the exploitation of the working class and the oppressions of gender and race. It therefore guides the understanding of the mediations underlying the constitutive relations of the subjects' experiences as historical beings. Framed as a qualitative research guided by historical-dialectical materialism, the process of mediation between singularity and universality is revealed through the particularities of these women’s lived experiences. Considering the complex and contradictory movement of how these experiences are constituted, the subject is not seen merely as a reactor to the logic of materiality that articulates exploitation and oppression; the processes that indicate change in the direction of perceptions and projections as subjects in the world are analyzed with equal attention to the reproduction of structural relations, through the unveiling of the symbolic, cognitive, and affective singularities of the participants. In approaching the field, where indepth interviews were conducted based on life histories, these singularities pointed to a specificity of the field, prompting a shift in the method chosen for data analysis. Thus, the material analyzed is organized into three areas of tension: (1) experiences of care vs. vulnerability situations; (2) senses of self vs. experiences of social relations; and (3) conditions of the concrete vs. abstractions about the future. The analysis of the updating of the relationship between exploitation and oppression, based on the production-reproduction unity, indicated that more than conflicting social roles and subsequent resolutions, what organizes lived experience are contradictions situated in different fields of tension, represented here in the three analytical nuclei. In conclusion, we argue that the specific analysis of these contradictions presents an important path in constructing a praxis of psychological Science situates, first, in critiquing the exclusionary logic by which the capitalist totality operates, shaping different experiences among various subjects and social groups, and, essentially, towards the emancipation, considering the creative and creative character of the human condition.
