To analyze the highlighted objectives, we used the dialectical historical materialism method to understand the dynamics of workers' access to social security, in the concrete reality of bourgeois society. During the research process, we uncovered elements that help us understand the formation of the Brazilian working class and the social construction of labor from a historical perspective and in labor protection. We also explored nuances in the field of mental health, which working class we are talking about, demystifying the universal human being, and the contradictions in Brazilian public policy stemming from structural racism, which directly impacts workers' struggle for labor protection. This led to the inference that both racism and mental health are categories conceptualized within the ideology of domination in capitalist society. Social work has been addressing the ethnic-racial issue in recent decades, adopting a methodological dimension of professional intervention, consolidating the uncompromising defense of rights in the struggle for human emancipation (CEP). The field research involved two working women, one of whom identified as mixed race and the other as white. Although the number of women interviewed was small, it was possible to find analytical elements to understand the social (lack of) protection experienced by the Black working class in Brazil Tipo: Dissertação 2025-12-12T00:00:00Z https://repositorio.pucsp.br/jspui/handle/handle/46583 Título: Supervisão profissional em serviço social: tessituras e produção do conhecimento Abstract: This thesis examines Professional Supervision in Social Work as both an instrument for professional development and a mechanism for theoreticalpractical mediation in social work practice, grounded in the principles of Continuing Education. The study seeks to elucidate the conceptual frameworks that inform the discourse and methodological practice of supervision, with particular attention to knowledge production on this subject spanning the period from 1972 to 2024. Theoretically, the dissertation draws upon analytical perspectives concerning the socio-historical development of the profession, anchored in its ethical-political, theoretical-methodological, and technicaloperational dimensions, as well as the socio-educational foundations of practice and critical reflections on how transformations in the labor market have generated new demands and expectations for social work professionals across diverse occupational settings. Methodologically, the study employs an integrative review approach, encompassing the identification, analysis, and interpretation of published materials from open-access sources, including books, peer-reviewed journals (Qualis rankings A1 through B4), doctoral dissertations and master's theses, legislation, and technical reports pertinent to the research object. Research findings reveal limited documentation of Professional Supervision practices during the specified timeframe and demonstrate a notable paucity of theoretical systematization on this topic since the Reconceptualization Movement of the mid-1960s. The analysis further indicates a discernible shift in scholarly attention toward supervision within academic contexts—specifically, field practicum supervision in social work education—rather than professional supervision in practice settings. Additionally, the study identifies a body of literature addressing supervision in relation to social assistance service management, technical assistance for programs and projects, and case supervision within specialized practice domains Tipo: Tese 2025-12-15T00:00:00Z https://repositorio.pucsp.br/jspui/handle/handle/46571 Título: Tirem a venda dos olhos da Justiça para que ela possa enxergar o que se passa bem ali na sua frente: uma análise do lugar do território no Tribunal de Justiça do Estado de São Paulo Abstract: The general objective of this thesis is to understand the place of territory in the justice system, seeking to identify the territorial parameters under which the Judiciary establishes its activities in the State of São Paulo. The first section is introductory and presents the author, as well as the paths that led her to choose this topic. The second section describes in detail the field research, the territories analyzed, and the interlocutors—judges, social workers, and psychologists—in addition to the methodological procedures adopted, such as interviews, questionnaires administered to the population using judicial services, technical visits, field diaries, and cursive observation. It also begins to present the initial results, highlighting the perceptions of professionals about the territories in which they work. Using art as a form of mediation, the thesis incorporates illustrations and short stories that aid in understanding the different themes addressed throughout the research. The third section establishes the theoretical frameworks of the categories “territory” and “justice,” seeking to reveal the impacts of the Judiciary's actions on territorial dynamics, especially in the construction of territorialities. It also analyzes how the determinations present in the territories affect the services provided by the judicial services, highlighting the dialectical relationship established in everyday life. The fourth section delves deeper into the debate on the concept of access to justice, and finally, the fifth section focuses on the essential elements for building the category of territorial justice, highlighting identified initiatives that stem from this logic and corroborate the need to incorporate the territorial dimension into the provision of judicial services. Finally, the concluding remarks highlight the barriers to incorporating the territorial perspective into justice, considering the way it is structured in contemporary Brazil—as an apparatus for sustaining neoliberal ideology—still marked by colonial legacies and the reproduction of racist, classist, and misogynistic ideas, to the detriment of building effective social justice. It also points out that thinking about territorial justice means thinking about the consolidation of a democratic state governed by the rule of law, capable of seeing and responding to the specificities of the territories where it operates Tipo: Tese 2025-11-28T00:00:00Z https://repositorio.pucsp.br/jspui/handle/handle/46570 Título: “Como uma menina de tão bom coração faz isso?”: uma análise sobre a entrega “voluntária” de criança à adoção Abstract: This dissertation proposes an analysis of the right recognized in 2009 and later regulated by Law No. 13.509 of 2017, which became known as the “Voluntary Relinquishment” of a newborn child for adoption, amending the Statute of the Child and Adolescent (ECA). To this end, 51 court cases were examined, all processed in a Juvenile Court of the São Paulo Court of Justice (TJSP) between 2015 and 2024, whose content deals with voluntary relinquishment. Beginning with a socio-historical review, which showed that the act of not keeping a child under the care of the person who gestated was once labeled as abandonment until its renaming as surrender, it was found that the transfer of children to the responsibility of someone other than their biological parents is a phenomenon that persists throughout history. With the development of new productive forces and, consequently, new norms and regulations, surrender has taken different forms, especially considering transformations in the concept of motherhood since the 18th century. The analysis of judicial cases made it possible to understand the conditions under which surrenders for adoption occur today, based on Brazilian legislation regarding “voluntary” surrender and other publications on the subject, as well as to identify characteristics of pregnant or postpartum individuals who accessed the judiciary, the pregnancies and the process leading to surrender, some characteristics of the children and parents, and, notably, to reveal the forms of violence that permeate the implementation of this recently recognized right. Finally, through an in-depth study of a specific case processed during a legislative change, the dissertation questions the use of the term “voluntary” to qualify surrender, given that material living conditions and the moral values constituting society - structured by the capitalist mode of production - are the legal and social determinants for carrying out a surrender for adoption Tipo: Dissertação 2025-11-11T00:00:00Z
