Um dos principais temas discutidos pela atualidade é a presença na mídia na vida das pessoas como uma forma de manipulação das massas.
Assim, a chamada Escola de Frankfurt estuda os fenômenos que levam à chamada sociedade de massa a se tornarem homogêneos, estudando os efeitos do capitalismo sob a ótica da sociedade pós moderna.
São diversos autores, como Adorno, Horkheimer, Benjamin, Marcuse e Habermas, que adentram temas como dominação, indústria cultural, poder, diálogo e comunicação.
Essa aula visa trabalhar as correntes sociológicas clássicas. A primeira delas, o Positivismo, é caracterizado e nomes como Saint Simon, Auguste Comte e Émile Durkheim são contextualizados.
A segunda corrente trabalhada é o Marxismo e conceitos como o materialismo histórico, a mais-valia, o fetichismo e a reificação do trabalho são explicados.
Por fim, a terceira corrente trabalhada é a Sociologia Compreensiva em que Weber é apresentado e contextualizado. Cada característica e explicação foram elaboradas com o foco da realização de diferentes vestibulares e processos seletivos, por isso tabelas conceituais foram realizadas.

The first report was published in 2010. Each year, our report canvass the views of mining leaders across the country on their growth outlook and prospects, employment and pricing, challenges, opportunities and business priorities, and their advice to Canberra. Over the last seven years, the Mining Business Outlook Report has reported on the highs and lows of the industry first-hand. From broadcasting sentiment when mining was at its peak, to documenting the collapse in confidence as the sustained fall in commodity prices killed the mining investment boom, this report has provided expert insights into an industry facing turbulent times. In 2016, the Federal Government continues to lead the discussion of an economy in transition away from mining and resources. However, as this report shows, in an industry sector that accounts for more than 50 per cent of the value of all Australian exports, our interviews with mining leaders clearly suggest a shift in industry sentiment and potentially, a sustained improvement in the outlook for the sector. Despite the lows that still exist in parts of the industry, there has been a huge surge in sentiment. The outlook for mining appears more positive than it has been in the last three years, with a rise in cautious optimism from below 10 per cent two years ago, to nearly 50 per cent today. The underlying reasons for this are that many leaders have made the difficult changes necessary for their businesses to survive in today’s climate
of low commodity prices. There is a growing sense that prices have stabilised and the next price trend, though it may not occur soon, will be up. In addition to our 50 interviews with mining leaders across key commodities, this year we were also fortunate enough to conduct an exclusive interview with Gina Rinehart, one of Australia’s mining magnates, well-documented for her achievements with Roy Hill, Australia’s largest iron ore mine. Mrs Rinehart remains cautiously optimistic about iron ore, but also warns that in order to retain global competitiveness for Australia’s mining sector, the Australian Government and industry leaders must take urgent action. In summary, there appear to be signs of resurgence in the sector over the next 12 months, with a more confident outlook for the future. However, the sector is also calling out for clearer polices and Government backing in order to support its ongoing contribution to Australia’s economic prosperity, as we once again get ready for an election.

The war closed all borders. Once countries began to issue passports to their citizens, refugees who had fled from, and consequently forfeited the protection provided by, their countries posed a problem. At this point the League of Nations began to help refugees attain official travel documents.

The Others Shall be Ousted from Our Town…From TB to SD – tracing a tainted hi...Claes B. Pettersson
Paper presented at the EAA 2015 Conference in Glasgow.
Abstract: Once a thriving new town of the Swedish Empire, in the 19th century several districts of Jönköping faced rapid social decline. Seriously overpopulated, with cheap dwellings built into former stables and warehouses, it became the insanitary setting for disease and unrest. The cholera in the 1830s killed about 1/6th of the population, while the Bread Riots of 1855 were caused by starvation as a consequence of the Crimean War. Movements of social and religious reform found a great following, but the living conditions were not improved.
In the 1930s, the decaying blocks were characterized as one of the worst slum districts in country, with very high rates of T.B. among its population. In a 20th century census, based on racial biology, a large number of the inhabitants were classified as “travelers”. The “Tattarkravallerna” riots in 1948 resembled ethnical cleansing, something that local media encouraged. Today, when these blocks are either demolished or gentrified, xenophobic right wing movements like the SD (Sverige Demokraterna) have used this setting for their rallies.
Recent research in archaeology, history and archaeobotany has made it possible to evaluate the living conditions and the tainted past of these slums; an alternative tale of the Age of Industrialization!
