O corpo negado pela sua “extrema subjetividade”: expressões da colonialidade do saber na ética em pesquisa

In the quest to understand the (in)visibility of non-heteronormative bodies in medical education, a process that systematically grounds its institutional discourse on the biological coherence, I looked at my gay body both as a doctor and professor to understand this culture and its consequences. The objective of the article is to discuss the initial institutional confrontations faced by an autoethnographic research regarding homoaffectivity in medical education and practice. This work is aimed towards understanding the silencing imposed on subjectivity, existence and participation as a subject-researcher in “Science”. Thus, amidst a muted cry of a denied body, “misunderstood” for its “extreme subjectivity,” this text represents the audacity in speaking and breaking with the mortifying silence imposed by the supposed “scientific” hegemony23COORDENAÇÃO DE APERFEIÇOAMENTO DE PESSOAL DE NÍVEL SUPERIOR - CAPES88881.188456/2018-01Buscando compreender as (in)visibilidade dos corpos não heteronormativos na educação médica, a qual sistematicamente sustenta seus discursos institucionais baseados na coerência biológica, olhei para o meu corpo gay , de médico e de professor, para compreender essa cultura e seus desdobramentos. O objetivo deste trabalho é discutir os enfrentamos institucionais iniciais para a realização de uma pesquisa autoetnográfica sobre a homoafetividade na formação e prática médicas. Compreendemos, com esse trabalho, o silenciamento imposto à subjetividade, à existência e à participação enquanto pesquisador-sujeito na “Ciência”. Assim, em meio a um grito emudecido de um corpo negado, com “entendimentos errôneos” pela sua “extrema subjetividade”, este texto representa uma ousadia em falar e romper com o silêncio mortificante que a suposta hegemonia “científica” impõ

Uso De Práticas Integrativas E Complementares Por Doulas Em Maternidades De Fortaleza (ce) E Campinas (sp)

This study aimed to analyze the Integrative and Complementary Practices (ICP) applied by doulas in the cities of Fortaleza (CE) and Campinas (SP). This is a qualitative study encompassing fifteen doulas: nine from Fortaleza and six from Campinas. The data were collected in the second half of 2010 by conducting semi-structured and pre-organized interviews following the procedures of thematic content analysis. The interpretations of the results were based on the idea that institutionalization of knowledge and practices happen through the conformation of nuclei and fields. The nucleus demarcates the identity of an area of knowledge and the professionals’ practices, and the field demarcates the blurred limits among disciplines that can be submitted to conflicts. We observed that the support offered by doulas permeates a variety of practices framed in traditional medicine as well as in complementary and alternative medicine. ICP was associated with decreases in length of labor, superior pain management, ability of making decision and empowering of women. It is understood that the range of activities offered by doulas and the use of ICP converge to the uniqueness, respect and autonomy of women. Furthermore, it proposes a new model of awareness and practices centered on the importance of the natural process of childbirth. © 2016, UNIV SAOPAULO. All rights reserved.25110812
