The current text seeks to complement the concept of social outbreak referring to the political events of October 2019 in Chile with an idea of harmonization and utopian updating in affective-political terms. To do this, in the first place it will be established that it is possible to make a political-affective reading of the social outbreak, taking a detour through what would be the function of the affects in their political dimension, as articulators of communities, to later specify the affective political sense in the context of our social outbreak. Secondly, it will be affirmed that, without denying the very idea of an explosion, at least in part there is also a decantation of a process of utopian harmonization and updating. To deploy these two statements, we will rely mainly on a 19th century author, Charles Fourier, who builds a materialist-affective theory that can provide important insights into our contingency. We will also carry out a reading of the RENACE intervention by Delight Lab to illustrate our thesis.

The paper discusses the film by Garin Nugroho based on a discourse analysis developed by Fairclough. The film titled “Javanese Opera” directed by Garin became one of the films that raised the theme of Javanese women in domestic and political space. How Garin in the discourse of Javanese women became interesting because his works were widely recognized as coloring the development of national films and his works were recognized internationally. The research method used a qualitative approach, while the analysis used was Fairclough’s discourse analysis. The gender leadership discourse in Indonesia is represented by Garin Nugroho as a dynamic discourse relating to the sociopolitical context and power based on the national philosophy, culture and values of pluralism adopted by the Indonesian people. The socio-political context in this film is how women’s perspectives are represented as social agents and political agents in looking at the leadership leadership in Indonesia. In the social dimension, Javanese women are represented as the center of male spiritual power which has a strategic role in shaping male leadership character. In the political dimension, Javanese women are represented as agents of public space in the political contestation of power which is realized by various strategic steps in conducting global political competition.

The presence in Spain of the French congregations devoted to education comes determined by the political events that took place during the III Republic in the neighbouring country starting at the end of 19th century. Like many others, , clergymen from San Viator, a congregation founded by the French priest Luis Querbes and devoted to education since 1851, arrived in Spain in 1903 with the aim of finding refuge and continuing their educational work. After settling  at a first stage in the city of Vitoria (Basque Country, Spain), they soon developed a program of foundations in the nearby surroundings which culminated with their establishment of a centre in Asturias (north-central Spain). With the approval of the diocese and the parish, they opened their first school in 1912, in the Asturian village of Cangas de Onís, which was soon followed by other twin foundations in Ribadesella and Infiesto. Our article undertakes to review their presence in the area - largely  ignored today in the school scene of our region - by analysing those pedagogic principles which inspired their dedication to the school, their educational offer and their capacity for innovating and adapting to the interests of an industrial society aspiring to secure a top-class education for their pupils. For this commitment they used, among other things the regional press as an advertising resource that was able to guarantee them the prestige attained in the region along their educational journey.

Summary This article analyses – by drawing on ideology critical and psychoanalytical concepts from Slavoj Žižek and Glynos et al. – how political, social and fantasmatic logics interplay and form social workers’ professional identities within two youth social work institutions that operate within different social policy paradigms: a social-interventionist paradigm in 2002 and a neoliberal paradigm in 2010. Findings The article shows how the current neoliberalisation of public policy permeates social work practices through fantasmatic narratives that create professional identities to heal discrepancies in and conceal the political dimension of everyday life. In one institution, within a welfare state-based ideology a compensating-including social professional identity is created in response to the young people’s alleged deficiencies; in the other institution, within a neoliberal ideology a mobilising-motivating identity is created to meet the young people’s alleged excess. In both narratives, however, the young people risk bearing the blame for the failure of the social professional project. Applications Fantasies in both institutions conceal how social workers’ professional identities sustain dominant ideology through dislocating uncertainties, ambiguities and ambivalences implicated in professional social work. Whether rooted in the state-based welfare or market-oriented neoliberal policy paradigms, realisation of these dynamics may expose the basic interdependencies of state, civil society and market actors implicated in the project of professional social work.

O presente estudo tem como problema de pesquisa: De que maneira a sociologia política da ação pública contribui para esclarecer as barreiras e indutores na implementação da inovação social? Para responder tal problema, esta pesquisa propõe a utilização do pentágono de políticas públicas como modelo de análise na implementação da inovação social, tendo em vista a capacidade do mesmo para análise de aspectos cognitivos dos atores, que podem contribuir para explanar a dimensão política da inovação social, a qual é tida como incógnita que demanda esclarecimento. O estudo da implementação da inovação social a partir de um modelo de análise de implementação de políticas públicas é possível porque tanto a inovação social quanto a ação pública levam em conta os quadros cognitivos decorrentes da interação e articulação de atores, aspectos subjetivos e objetivos, com foco na solução de uma questão social como a desigualdade social, a pobreza, o crime, o analfabetismo. Tanto a ação pública quanto a inovação social consideram importante a diversidade de atores e a atuação ativa destes, o empoderamento, o protagonismo dos mesmos, na busca por soluções para questões sociais. O estudo da inovação social é relevante para toda sociedade, pois é um tema que aborda questões de interesse coletivo. O presente trabalho inova na medida em que propõe que a implementação da inovação social seja analisada por meio do pentágono de políticas públicas. Palavras-Chave: Pentágono de Políticas Públicas. Inovação Social. Barreiras. Indutores. Implementação.   Abstract: The present study has the following research problem: How does the political sociology of public action contribute to clarify the barriers and dravers in the implementation of social innovation? To answer this problem, this research proposes the use of the public policies pentagon as a model of analysis in the social innovation implementation, given its ability to analyze cognitive aspects of actors, which contribute to explain the political dimension of social innovation, which is considered a unknown variable that requires clarification. The study of social innovation implementation from a model of public policy implementation analysis is possible because both social innovation and public action take into account cognitive aspects arising from the interaction and articulation of actors, subjective and objective aspects, focused on solving a social issue such as social inequality, poverty, crime, illiteracy. Both public action and social innovation consider important the diversity of actors and their active role, their empowerment, their protagonism, in the search for solutions to social issues. The social innovation study is relevant to society as a whole, as it is a topic that addresses issues of collective interest. The present study innovates in that it proposes that the implementation of social innovation be analyzed through of the public policies pentagon. Keywords: Public Policies Pentagon. Social Innovation. Barriers.  Drivers. Implementation.

- The degrowth as a way out of economy Degrowth represents first of all a provocative slogan to indicate the necessity to break from the growing society, focussed on an economy aiming at the growth for the growth's sake. In the essay, the author theorizes that breaking with the society of growth does not imply promoting an "alternative" growth, nor an "alternative" economy, but rather overcoming the excessive power of economy in order to rediscover the social and the political dimension. The question regards two interconnected levels: the one of representations and the one of concrete realities. The break represented by degrowth concerns at the same time things and words, it implies a "decolonization" of the imagination and the actualization of another possible world.

Realism attempts to discovering and expressing reality and replacing reality by  imagination, dreaming, and legends, the realist writer uses his genius and modernity instead of a fictitious one in observing and expressing details. The school of realism is one of the most fundamental art schools that emerged in France in the mid-nineteenth century and expanded rapidly. Avoiding the imagination and inner inspirations of the romantics and addressing the realities of the universe outsidewere the most basic principles of this school that poets, writers and artists adopted and followed. In Iran and Iraq, poets and writers focused on social issues and the decline and backwardness of their own countries.The literature of each nation reflects the political and social conditions of the nation. Given that the socioeconomic conditions of Iran and Iraq have been affected by the same events in contemporary times, the thoughts and the literary themes of these two literatures are largely similar. Among the prominent contemporary poets of Iran and Iraq are: Nima Youshij and Siavash Kasraei in Iran, Badr Shakir al-Sayyab and Abdul Wahhab al-Bayati in Iraq, pointed out that intense tendencies towards freedom and support of workers and farmers have brought the situation to the attention of the country. This studyis limited to studying four poets (Nima Youshij, Siavash Kasraei, Badr shaker al-Sayyab and Abdul Wahhab al-Bayati). By analyzing realism in the poetry of those four poets, each writer believes in particular realism, describing and expressing the social, political, and the describing the nature from the language of each poet in his own way. In his realistic description, each poet expresses a socio-political dimension more prominently

This article focuses on the representations of women alongside the social and historical background of Turkish cinema from the 1980s through the early 1990s. In the following section, I articulate the political events in the 1980s - the early1990s and its impacts on Turkish society and cinema. I delve into the modernist representations of women in the 1980s cinema to analyze women’s gender codes (based on social/cultural and cinematic codes). Finally, in the last section, I examine Atıf Yılmaz’s cinematic images of women in his films and analyze two of his films A Sip of Love (1984) and The Night, Angel and Our Gang (1994) in terms of gender codes.

Originating from the French word féminisme, feminism’s first appearance in 1837 is attributed to the social theorist Charles Fourier (1772–1837). Denoting a principle that argues for the rights of women and the equality of the sexes, it grew increasingly popular as a term in the second half of the 19th century, and first appeared in the Oxford Dictionary of English in 1895. As a reform movement with a network of activists comprising both sexes across the Americas and Europe, the championing of political, financial, and social equality for women had its roots in abolitionist and temperance movements of the early 19th century. Roughly divided into three waves, the first began in the mid-1800s and peaked in the United States and Europe between 1890 and 1920. The second took place from the late 1960s to the 1980s, and was followed by a third in the mid-1990s.
