No full textDissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Comunicação e Expressão, Programa de Pós-Graduação em Inglês: Estudos Linguísticos e Literários, Florianópolis, 2025.O objetivo desse trabalho é analisar os Poemas Slam ?Unforgettable?, ?Hair? e ?AfroLatina?, poemas da/com participação de Elizabeth Acevedo, uma autora e ativista estadunidense. O foco da presente análise foi a construção da identidade autoral de Acevedo em seus poemas, identificando as facetas de representação presentes em cada um através da lente dos estudos culturais. A produção literária de Acevedo é muito influenciada por sua condição de mulher negra, afro-latina, imigrante de segunda geração nos Estados Unidos, e em como essa condição gera opressão sistêmica em diversos níveis, as quais ela expõe e se contrapõe em sua obra. Os poemas foram escolhidos em razão dos níveis temáticos (corpo, linguagem, assimilação). A autora também explora extensamente questões históricas, algumas das quais foram ressaltadas no presente trabalho, bem como pelo formato (Poesia Slam, filmada e distribuída por plataformas on-line), onde se observou a influência do formato e da performance na entrega das poesias. Foi concluído que Acevedo constantemente se utilizou de elementos da forma e do alcance do gênero Poesia Slam para trazer atenção ás opressões sofridas por pessoas de cor, imigrantes de segunda geração e por mulheres nos Estados Unidos. Palavras-chave: Poesia Slam, Elizabeth Acevedo, xenofobia.Abstract: The objective of this work is to analyze the Slam Poems ?Unforgettable?, ?Hair? and ?Afro-Latina?, poems by/with the participation of Elizabeth Acevedo, an American author and activist. The focus of this analysis was the construction of Acevedo?s authorial identity in her poems, identifying the facets of representation present in each one through the lens of cultural studies. Acevedo?s literary production is greatly influenced by her condition as a black, Afro-Latina woman, a second-generation immigrant in the United States, and how this condition generates systemic oppression on several levels, which she exposes and to which opposes in her work. The poems were chosen based on the thematic levels (body, language, assimilation). The author also extensively explores historical issues, some of which were highlighted in this work, as well as the format (Slam Poetry, filmed and distributed through online platforms), where the influence of the format and performance in the delivery of the poems was observed. It was concluded that Acevedo consistently utilized elements of the form and scope of the Slam Poetry genre to bring attention to the oppressions faced by people of color, second-generation immigrants, and women in the United States
An alternative technical education system in Mexico : a reassessment of CONALEP
No full textUsing matched pair methods, Lopez-Acevedo reevaluates the labor market performance of graduates of Mexico's Colegio Nacional de Educacion ProfesionalTtnica (CONALEP), the country's largest technical education system. She also assesses the impact of innovations introduced by CONALEP in 1991. The analysis shows that individuals in the control group find jobs faster than CONALEP graduates do, but a larger share of CONALEP graduates work in an occupation consistent with their field of specialization or training. CONALEP graduates earn 20-28 percent more than the control group. And employers invest more in training CONALEP graduates than they do in training individuals in the control group. The author shows that the innovations introduced by CONALEP increase graduates'probability of finding a job and shorten their job search. A cost-benefit analysis appears to show that CONALEP is an effective training system.Public Health Promotion,Teaching and Learning,Primary Education,Health Monitoring&Evaluation,Labor Policies,Teaching and Learning,Gender and Education,Primary Education,Health Monitoring&Evaluation,Girls Education

The Analysis of ‘Leading Sectors’: A Long term view of 18 Latin American economies
No full textIn the 1950s and 60s, in Latin America structuralism was considered as the preeminent form of analysis of economic development and growth. Nowadays, in contrast, as a mode of analysis structuralism is distinctly unfashionable, and has been superceded by newer endogenous growth theories, which build on earlier neoclassical contributions. Beyond broad endorsements of enhancing human capital, promoting infrastructure provision and the importance of sustaining investment levels, it is arguable whether endogenous growth theories been able to shed much light on the dynamics of growth. This paper revindicates the utility of structuralist analysis in the analysis of Latin American growth patterns. Through some simple empirical tests, it explores the relationship between economic growth and structural performance. Using as high a level of disaggregation as the data allows, we use dynamic panel data analysis together with a steady state model to calculate the elasticities of sectoral growth to overall output. The implications for resource allocation and policies to promote particular sectors are discussed.Growth, Structural Change, Latin America, Kaldor Growth Laws, Economic Development
