Compreender as raízes e o contexto em que é gerada e reproduzida a discriminação da categoria dos serventes na construção civil, bem como suas implicações psicossociais. Esse foi o objetivo norteador de uma investigação desenvolvida através de um estudo de caso, cujos resultados e análises dão corpo ao presente artigo. O trabalho se inscreve nas chamadas Clínicas do Trabalho, na perspectiva da psicossociologia do trabalho. Tomou-se como campo do estudo uma empresa privada de pequeno porte do ramo da construção civil, situada na Região Metropolitana de Belo Horizonte, MG. A pesquisa foi dividida em três etapas: (a) estudos preliminares; (b) observações ergonômicas e entrevistas; e (c) análise das entrevistas e estruturação do texto. Constatou-se uma marcante contradição entre os discursos dirigidos ao servente quando falam de sua atividade a partir do senso comum e aqueles que partem da vivência e da análise do trabalho real desses profissionais. Além disso, revelou-se que a condição de servente encarna um conjunto de características assimiladas como negativas, que dificultam a formação de uma autoimagem e de uma identidade positivas por parte daqueles que são por ela marcados. Identificou-se também que a discriminação da categoria exerce importante função política (controle social) através do enfraquecimento ou mesmo anulação da coesão e organização coletivas. O estudo denuncia a coexistência dos mais sofisticados mecanismos de produção e a sujeição de seres humanos a relações/situações de vida e trabalho humilhantes e/ou degradantes, contradição classificada como ética e moralmente insustentável. Ele sugere ainda que a negligência de investimentos focados no desenvolvimento humano, no contexto de trabalho, mostra-se contraproducente, mesmo que sob a lógica do lucro. Finalmente, as considerações apontam para a necessidade de criação de outro conceito de trabalho em nossas sociedades.Palavras-chave: Serventes, Construção civil, Discriminação, Clínicas do trabalho. The servant condition in constructionTo understand the roots and the context in which discrimination at servants (attendant laborers) in construction is generated and reproduced, as well as their psychosocial implications. This was the guiding objective of a research developed through a case study. It's results and analysis embodies the present article. The work fits in the so-called Clinics of Labor, at the labor psychosociology perspective. The field of study was a small private company in the business of construction, situated in the metropolitan area of Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais State, Brazil. The research was divided into three stages: (a) preliminary studies, (b) ergonomic observations and interviews and (c) categorization of verbalization and structuring of the text. It was found a striking contradiction between the discourse addressed to the servant when speaking of his activity from the common sense and the speeches that come from analysis of the actual work of these professionals. Besides that, it was revealed that the condition embodies a ...
Considering that the global trade in forest timber products is prominent, academia needs to obtain directions for future research on forest timber products. This study aims to identify the trends and growth of publications on timber forest products, identifying driving, emerging, or crosscutting themes. The database used is Scopus, the search terms were "wood forest products" and "timber products" and the period was from 1955 to 2022. The bibliometric method was applied, using the Bibliometrix package and the interface Biblioshiny, from the R software. The results show that 89.06% of the 1,007 studies returned come from the USA, Canada, and China and that most of the publications are concentrated in three international journals. Themes that have recently emerged, such as climate change mitigation, bioeconomy, climate change, carbon stocks, plywood, biomass, and international trade, indicate a trend and suggest possible gaps to explore in future research. The contributions of this study are in the identification of driving and emerging/transversal themes that can direct future research on wood forest products, as well as already consolidated themes that no longer represent research trends. The limitations, on the other hand, are related to the collection of data only in the Scopus database and the quantitative analysis of topics based only on keywords contained in parts of the documents. Future studies may go beyond trend analysis, performing co-authorship analyses, examining authors and their affiliations, and studying the social structure and collaboration networks. They may undertake citation analysis, using citation counts as a measure of similarity between documents, authors, and journals.
Comprendre le contexte dans lequel est engendrée et reproduite la marginalisation de la catégorie des manœuvres dans le bâtiment, aussi bien que ses implications psychosociales, est l’objectif de cet article. Il s’appuie sur une recherche réalisée dans une entreprise du bâtiment à Belo Horizonte, au Brésil. La condition de manœuvre concentre un ensemble de caractéristiques tenues comme négatives, empêchant la formation d’une image de soi et d’une identité positive pour ceux qui en portent les stigmates. La discrimination de cette catégorie joue un rôle important aussi sur le plan de l’organisation collective : elle affaiblit ou même annule la cohésion de ce groupe social. Nous avons observé enfin une considérable contradiction entre les discours des ouvriers du bâtiment quand ils parlent de leur activité à travers le prisme dépréciatif du sens commun et les discours qui partent de leur expérience et de l’analyse du travail réel de ces professionnels.
