The research was conducted within the Graduate Program in Education (master’s level) at the State University of Western Paraná (UNIOESTE), Francisco Beltrão Campus, under the "Society, Knowledge, and Education" research line. The choice of the topic—affectivity in the relationships between teachers and infants in early childhood education—emerged from the researcher's personal and professional experiences in the field of psychology. These experiences were inspired by the works of Baruch Spinoza (2007) regarding the power of affects; Deleuze and Guattari (1995) and Rolnik (2018) regarding subjectivation processes as rhizomatic movements; and grounded in Emmi Pikler’s (2011) educational approach to healthy development, which emphasizes free movement, autonomy, and affective bonds as central pillars. These experiences fostered a more attentive perspective on the relationships and affects involved, reinforcing their importance within the educational environment. The research is guided by the following question: how do the interpersonal relationships formed in the early childhood education environment—particularly those based on affectivity, a welcoming atmosphere, and respect for individuality—contribute to the processes of teaching and learning, development, and the subjective formation of both infants and teachers? In light of this, the study seeks to understand how nursery teachers perceive and experience affectivity during daily interactions with infants; to analyze pedagogical practices that foster the creation of affective bonds and welcoming environments within the nursery routine; and to observe how gestures, touch, gazes, and emotional expressions manifest and mediate the relationships between adults and infants at the institution under study. Methodologically, we adopted a qualitative case study approach, combining a literature review with empirical data collection. The research setting was an infant classroom at a Municipal Early Childhood Education Center (CMEI), selected due to its location between the city center and outlying neighborhoods—a position that allows for engagement with diverse socioeconomic realities, lifestyles, and family structures. Through this methodology, we aim to understand the effects and potential of affectivity within educational relationships and the subjective experiences of both infants and teachers. This study seeks to raise awareness among professionals and educational institutions regarding the importance of affective encounters in the school environment, recognizing them as fundamental elements of the early childhood educational experience. By highlighting the influence of affect and affectivity on human development and pedagogical relationships, the study aims to foster educational practices that are more welcoming, sensitive, and attentive to the unique characteristics of the individuals involved.

Based on a theoretical analysis of contributions from thinkers in the areas of education, psychology, psychoanalysis, and mental health, the work explores the construction of subjectivity and the history of mental health in Brazil. In addition, it addresses education and teachers’ mental health, as well as care practices. Thus, the initial methodological step was a theoretical-bibliographic review, involving consultation of publications in the fields of education, mental health, and psychoanalysis, in the BDTDs (Brazilian Digital Library of Theses and Dissertations). Research was also found in CAPES Journal Portal. The study employs content analysis to examine the trajectory of mental health in education, the care practices available in public higher education institutions, as well as the main complaints related to mental health presented by teachers. Our research object, mental health in education, is framed within the method of historical-dialectical materialism to elucidate the characteristics of the historical context of teachers’ mental health, from the perspective of the scientific knowledge of psychoanalytic theory and its contributions to education. Finally, the analysis of these concepts and contexts, through a Marxist philosophical approach and psychoanalytic contributions, makes it possible to understand the current form of teacher malaise and to evaluate the existing care practices in educational institutions, aiming to expand and improve their scope whithin education.; Esta disertación es resultado de una investigación de maestría del Programa de Maestría en Educación (PPGEFB) de la Universidad Estatal del Oeste de Paraná (UNIOESTE), campus Francisco Beltrão-PR, en la línea de investigación: “Cultura, Procesos Educativos y Formación de Profesores”. Se trata de una investigación bibliográfica que indaga conceptos del pensamiento de autores del área de la educación y del psicoanálisis, desde una perspectiva histórica, acerca del tema de la salud mental en la educación, con una mirada dirigida a los docentes. A partir de un análisis teórico de las contribuciones de pensadores de las áreas de la educación, psicología, psicoanálisis y salud mental. El trabajo explora la construcción de la subjetividad de los sujetos, la historia de la salud mental en Brasil. Además, aborda la educación y la salud mental de los docentes, así como prácticas de cuidado. Así, el paso metodológico inicial se dio a partir de una revisión teórico-bibliográfica, realizando consultas a producciones en el área de la educación, la salud mental y el psicoanálisis, en las BDTD (Biblioteca Digital Brasileña de Tesis y Disertaciones). También se encontraron investigaciones en el Portal de Periódicos de CAPES. El estudio recurre al análisis de contenido para examinar la trayectoria de la salud mental en la educación, las prácticas de cuidado disponibles en las universidades públicas de educación superior, así como las principales quejas relacionadas con la salud mental presentadas por los docentes. Nuestro objeto de investigación, la salud mental en la educación, se circunscribe al método del materialismo histórico-dialéctico para dilucidar las características del contexto histórico de la salud mental de los docentes, bajo la perspectiva de los conocimientos científicos de la teoría psicoanalítica y sus contribuciones a la educación. Por último, el análisis de estos conceptos y contextos, mediante un enfoque filosófico marxista y aportes psicoanalíticos, permite comprender el nombre del malestar docente y evaluar las prácticas de cuidado existentes en las instituciones educativas, com el fin de ampliar y mejorar su alcance en la educación.

This includes the implementation of new methods aimed at increasing productivity and improving efficiency. This process reflects the socioeconomic and spatial changes that have taken place, as well as the level of maturity reached by the dairy production chain. This trajectory has been affecting the permanence of small-scale producers in the activity due to their limited capacity to adapt to new productive dynamics. In this context, the present research examines the recent transformations occurring in the dairy production chain in Brazil, with emphasis on the processes of production centralization and capital accumulation observed in national primary production between 2014 and 2025. The objective is to identify the main impacts and challenges faced by small and medium-sized producers regarding the viability of their continued participation in dairy farming in an economically sustainable and competitive manner, especially in Southwestern Paraná. The analysis of the historical development of the national dairy production chain and its productive structure provided the basis for understanding the current scenario, as well as the main ongoing transformations in dairy farming within capitalist dynamics and the issues concerning small-scale farming.

The state hosts two major industrial plants in the municipality of Três Lagoas, in the Eastern region: Suzano Celulose e Papel, which shares its site with the paper manufacturer Sylvamo (formerly International Paper), and Eldorado Brasil, which focuses exclusively on pulp production. Currently, Suzano is developing the "Cerrado Project," a new industrial plant located in Ribas do Rio Pardo, near the state capital. Additionally, the Chilean group Arauco has announced the installation of a new factory in Inocência. The choice of this state is driven by favorable soil and climatic (edaphoclimatic) conditions—a key competitive advantage—combined with over one million hectares of eucalyptus plantations spread across the Eastern Coast. However, in recent years, Brazil has faced a "triple crisis": environmental, economic, and pandemic-related. In this context, this thesis discusses the challenges facing the sector—which ranks fourth in Brazilian exports—aiming to align with the 2030 Agenda for sustainable economic growth. The study focuses on three Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) intended to: improve resource efficiency and decouple economic growth from environmental degradation; promote development-oriented policies that support productive activities and job creation; and foster technological innovation and sustainable industrialization by encouraging multinational companies to adopt sustainable practices.
