Title: Olhares dos Imigrantes: suas subjetividades, memórias, histórias, desafios de integração e perspectivas em Francisco Beltrão – PR (2009 - 2025) Autor: Djau, Amadu Primeiro orientador: Flávio, Luiz Carlos Abstract: This dissertation analyzes the migratory dynamics of African and Asian populations in Brazil, focusing empirically on the municipality of Francisco Beltrão, from the perspective of geographical science, covering the period from 2009 to 2025. It is grounded in the understanding of migration as a geographical, historical, cultural, symbolic, political, and complex phenomenon. The analysis is supported by the processes of (de)territorialization, (re)territorialization, and multiterritoriality, as proposed by Rogério Haesbaert (2004), encompassing symbolic, material/immaterial, psychological, and political dimensions of space, in dialogue primarily with authors such as Milton Santos (1996; 1997), Paul Claval (2001), YiFu Tuan (1983), David Harvey (2005; 2010), Denis Cosgrove (2008), Ernst Georg Ravenstein (1880), Everett Lee (1966), and Douglas Massey et al. (1993), among others. Based on a combination of bibliographic and documentary review, interviews, field observations, and statistical data, the research focuses particularly on migrant workers employed in the halal sector of BRF in Francisco Beltrão, as well as in other segments of the local labor market, such as supermarkets, repair workshops, and small businesses. The study demonstrates how the labor insertion of these international migrants reveals trajectories marked by challenges, forced and/or intentional mobility, and struggles for survival, identity recognition, and cultural affirmation. At the same time, it highlights practices of resistance, solidarity, historicalexistential reconstruction, and spatial appropriation mediated by knowledge, religiosity, and processes of language learning and coexistence. Thus, this study examines the presence of new migratory flows in Francisco Beltrão and their contrasts with local identities. Drawing on the categories of territory in Santos (1996), place in Tuan (1983), landscape in Cosgrove (2008), and space as a social construction in Claval (2001) and Raffestin (1993), it analyzes the perspectives of international migrants in the city and reinforces their centrality as agents of territorial transformation. Finally, it underscores the urgency of public policies that ensure migrants’ rights, promote inclusion, and value cultural diversity as a constitutive element of local heritage.

Title: Cartografia e Universalização da Terra: representações do espaço terrestre entre a Geografia de Ptolomeu e a Cartografia Náutica Ibérica do Renascimento Autor: Maguelniski, Diego Primeiro orientador: Bauab, Fabricio Pedroso Abstract: The Modern cartography, which originated after the Great Navigations and the Renaissance period (XV-XVI), uses a type of continuous resource to the universal to represent the geographical reality in its topographical features, based on máthêsis (Foucault, 2016), in the geometrization of space and the suppression of geographical multiplicity through the process of decals and subjectivation (Deleuze, Guattari, 1995). In this bibliographic and theoretical study, we study the origins of modern Western cartography and the modern representation of space, relating them to the phenomenon of the universalization of terrestrial spatial data and terrestrial cartographic representation, in a path that scrutinizes its principles and methods on different fronts: the technical, theoretical and literary influence of the Geography by Claudius Ptolemy (c.100 - c. 170 AD), that was recovered at the Renaissance in the late fourteenth and early fifteenth centuries, the advancement of projective theories about space and its process of geometrization at the Renaissance, the evolution of terrestrial and spatial representation techniques in nautical cartography, especially in Iberian nautical cartography, in the context of the Great Navigations, and, finally, the union of Renaissance cartographic techniques in the cartography of Gerard Mercator (1512-1594), in his famous projection known from his map of 1569. Through this ongoing study, we can see that there were three types of resources to the universal or universalization in modern cartography: we say that there was an ontological universalization of terrestrial spatial data thanks to the loss of their particular conditions, in the signic representation given by the processes mentioned at the beginning of this abstract. In the same way, the standardization of a way of mapping that treats the earth’s surface as an undifferentiated whole, constituting a single and universal horizon, evidenced a process of a qualitative universalization of the representation of the earth’s surface. In addition, such technical conditions had an education engaged with the transformations that Western society went through in the formation of capitalism at the end of the Middle Ages, in the face of the formation of a new Western epistémê. The technical superimposition of this form of mapping on other autochthonous forms of spatial representation constituted a form of technical universalization aligned with the interests of the West and linked to the globalization of the capitalist system and Western culture, composing, currently, the form of perception, organization, and planning of the territory that we experience, thanks to the current uniqueness of techniques and empirical universality, as expressed M. Santos (2001, 2002, 2007a, 2007b). Publisher: Universidade Estadual do Oeste do Paraná Tipo do documento: Tese

Title: Injustiças (socio)ambientais e as Usinas Hidrelétricas no Rio Iguaçu (PR): consequências do modelo energético brasileiro Autor: Leite, Maristela da Costa Primeiro orientador: Candiotto, Luciano Zanetti Pessôa Abstract: Based on an overview of brazilian hydroenergy policy and the impacts on the Iguaçu River/PR, this thesis discusses the contradictions of an energy model grounded in the expansion of hydroelectric power stations and analyzes the social implications experienced by communities affected by the Baixo Iguaçu Hydroelectric Power Station/PR, highlighting the process of (socio)environmental injustice. From a historical-critical approach, the research also shows how privatizations and concessions in the generation and commercialization of hydroelectric energy have resulted in the transfer of this patrimony, built with public resources and labor of thousands of Brazilians. The analytical scope covers the process of consolidation of the national electricity sector and extends to the present day, considering the dynamics of the sector’s productive restructuring, privatization, and financialization, as well as the intensification of territorial conflicts and environmental injustices. In this context, the Movimento dos Atingidos por Barragens – MAB (Movement of People Affected by Dams) stands out as a central political actor in denouncing injustices and in building strategies of resistance and struggle for environmental justice. Focusing on the state of Paraná and the Iguaçu River, the study considers as a territory affected by the implementation of hydroelectric power stations, emphasizing the (socio)environmental impacts that have been accumulated, the concentration of richness, and the processes of territorial appropriation carried by electricity companies. The analysis concentrates on socioenvironmental implications and the dynamics in construction of the Baixo Iguaçu Hydroelectric Power Station, the last built along this river. The thesis argues that, although legitimized by legal structures and developmentalist narratives, the expansion of hydroelectric power stations reproduces environmental injustices and reinforces the marginalization of affected populations, who are often seen as obstacles to the expansion of brazilian energy model. Overcoming these injustices requires the democratization of energy policy, the recognition of territories as spaces of life, and the centrality of social struggles in the construction of alternatives oriented by environmental justice.

Title: Civismo ou cidadania? A escola pública sob o modelo cívico-militar e os limites da formação democrática Autor: Manosso, Daniele Crislei Czuy Primeiro orientador: Mehanna, Najla da Silva Abstract: This research aims to analyze, from a historical-critical perspective, the Civic-Military educational model implemented in the State of Paraná (2020) and its implications for the conception of civics, citizenship, and the humanizing formation of students, using as a case study the Beatriz Biavatti State Civic-Military School, located in one of the neighborhoods of the municipality of Francisco Beltrão, Paraná. It is worth noting that this thesis stems from the researcher's professional experience as a teacher in the state public school system, understood as a reflective and methodological instrument to analyze the transformations resulting from the transition from a regular school to the Civic-Military model. The problem guiding the investigation is to understand how the conception of civics and citizenship, present in the CivicMilitary educational model, redefines and challenges the formation of a critical and emancipatory citizenship. To this end, a qualitative approach is adopted, and the investigation articulates bibliographic review, document analysis, and a case study. Therefore, this study begins with a literature review and document analysis of the guidelines and regulations of the National Program of Civic-Military Schools (PECIM) and the Program of Civic-Military Colleges of Paraná (PCCM/PR), documents from the Paraná State Department of Education, and institutional materials from the school under investigation. The case study involves systematic observations of school routines, disciplinary practices, and didactic and pedagogical interactions with the 6th and 9th grade classes of Elementary School II and the 3rd year of High School, in addition to semi-structured interviews with teachers, administrators, students, and family members. Content Analysis (Bardin, 2016) was applied to the 5th Edition of the Manual of Civic-Military Schools of Paraná (Paraná, 2025) and to the Curricular Component of Citizenship and Civics (SEED, 2021), allowing the identification of thematic categories and contradictions between institutional discourse and concrete school experience. The research discusses the centrality attributed to discipline, hierarchy, and institutional control, highlighting how these elements tend to resignify civics from a normative logic, frequently associated with obedience and conformity to the detriment of intellectual autonomy, student participation, and critical thinking. The results indicate that the Civic-Military model tends to reorganize the educational space according to a logic aligned with control, standardization, and efficiency, approaching neoliberal rationalities and imposing limits on democratic citizen education. Although presented as an alternative for improving public education, the Civic-Military model restricts pedagogical practices historically linked to critical and humanizing education, reinforcing the need for educational policies committed to the emancipation of individuals and the strengthening of democracy.
