    Through a number of isolated initiatives that began in the 1960s, Brazil accumulated knowledge and experience that in the late 1990s culminated in the implementation of the first nationwide public health action meant to coordinate health bodies and personnel from the federal, state, and municipal administrative levels to address a chronic degenerative disease. The main goal of this article is to analyze the process of construction of this public policy for cancer control in Brazil —more specifically, organized screening for the control of cervical cancer in the form of the Viva Mulher program. Our analytical approach relies on elements from the history of public policy and from the history of institutions, combining the use of documental sources, scientific literature, and interviews with managers involved in the process under study. Our analysis endeavors to show how and to what extent this national process incorporated the experiences of local projects and responded both to pressure from the social movement and to the country’s political environment. It further shows how the new context, shaped by changes in the organization of the Brazilian health system, influenced this process

    De plantas y hombres: cómo los genetistas se vincularon a la eugenesia en Brasil (un estudio de caso, 1929-1938)

    The aim of this article is to analyse the trajectory of Octávio Domingues (1897-1972) and Salvador de Toledo Piza Jr. (1898-1988), two geneticists in the Agricultural School of São Paulo State, who engaged with the main propagandist for the eugenics in Brazil, Renato Kehl (1889-1974). This approach is embodied in its association surrounding the publication of the Boletim de Eugenia, an important vehicle for the dissemination of the eugenics movement between the years 1929 and 1933. From the analysis of this journal, it was possible to detect that even sharing both Mendelian theory of heredity, Toledo Piza Jr. considered miscegenation of the Brazilian population as something against nature, while Octávio Domingues judged it healthy.En el presente artículo pretendemos reflexionar sobre la trayectoria de Octávio Domingues (1897-1972) y Salvador Toledo Piza Jr. (1898-1988), dos genetistas de una escuela agrícola del Estado de São Paulo que se vincularon al principal propagador de la eugenesia en Brasil, Renato Kehl (1889-1974).

A partir del análisis de esa publicación periódica, ha sido posible detectar que, aunque los dos partían de la teoría mendeliana de la herencia, Toledo Piza Jr. consideraba el mestizaje de la población brasileña como algo que iba en contra de la naturaleza, mientras que Octávio Domingues la juzgaba saludable

Casa de Oswaldo Cruz. Rio de Janeiro, RJ, Brasil.O presente trabalho tem por objetivo discutir a agricultura e a biologia através dos estudos em genética na Escola Superior de Agricultura Luiz de Queiroz (ESALQ), em Piracicaba, entre 1917 e 1937. A partir das trajetórias acadêmicas de Carlos Teixeira Mendes (1888-1950), Octavio Domingues (1897-1972) e Salvador de Toledo Piza Jr. (1898-1988), analisa de que forma os três agrônomos se inseriram no debate sobre ciência pura e ciência aplicada, mobilizando teorias biológicas, seleção empírica e a genética mendeliana em suas pesquisas, visando o melhoramento da agricultura. Seguindo os passos dos professores de Piracicaba, esta tese analisa os conceitos de ciência, as teorias biológicase como essas questões foram debatidas dentro da agricultura. Nesse sentido, torna-se importante analisar também o exercício da divulgação científica empreendido por eles, seja por meio da Revista de Agricultura, periódico científico por eles fundado e no qual publicavam suas produções científicas na área de agricultura, seja por intermédio da participação de Octavio Domingues e Salvador de Toledo Piza Jr. no Boletim de Eugenia(1929-1933), em que publicavam discussões sobre genética e a possibilidade de aplicação em seres humanos.This work intends to discuss agriculture and biology through genetic studies in the College of Agriculture 'Luiz de Queiroz' (ESALQ), Piracicaba, between 1917 and 1937. From the academic trajectories of Carlos Teixeira Mendes (1888-1950), Octavio Domingues (1897-1972) and Salvador de Toledo Piza Jr. (1898-1988), the work examines how the three agronomists were included in the debate on pure science and applied science, involving biological theories, empirical selection and Mendelian genetics in their research, aiming at the improvement of agriculture. Following in the footsteps of these teachers of Piracicaba, this thesis examines the concepts of science, biological theories and how these issues were discussed within agriculture. In this sense, it is also important to analyze the performance of scientific undertaken by them, either through the Journal of Agriculture, the scientific journal founded by them and in which published their scientific production in agriculture, either through participation of Octavio Domingues and Salvador de Toledo Piza Jr. in the Bulletin of Eugenia (1929-1933), a journal where they published in discussions about genetics and the possibility of human application

    Orientador : Maria Clementina Pereira CunhaDissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Estadual de Campinas, Instituto de Filosofia e Ciencias HumanasResumo: O objetivo deste estudo é abordar uma parte da vida e da obra de José Bento Monteiro Lobato (1882-1948) investigando como dialogou com teorias raciais e com a Eugenia. No contexto histórico das primeiras décadas do século XX discutir a nação significou discutir a constituição racial do povo brasileiro e suas possíveis conseqüências para o futuro do Brasil. Assim, pretendi analisar como o autor participou e divulgou o projeto de intervenção social, que em um sentido mais amplo, vinculava-se ao tema da regeneração nacionalAbstract: The aim of this study is to approach the life and the works of José Bento Monteiro Lobato (1882-1948), investigating the way he dialogued with racial theories and eugenics.

Thus, I intend to analyze how the writer announced and propagated the project of social interferences, which in a more extensive meaning, was linked to the theme of national regenerationMestradoMestre em Históri
