“…There are three families or series of natural radioactive elements, and they vary according to their decay sequence (stabilization process): uranium series, actinium series, and thorium series. These three families have, in their sequential stabilization process, a stage in which matter is transformed into an element called radon, but for each of these series, an isotope of radon is formed [4,7,8]. The three isotopes of this naturally occurring gas are [9]:…”

Physical and chemical agents in workplace environments can be hazardous for employees. Much of the exposure to ionizing radiation can occur due to the presence of radon in the workplace. Mining environments are more susceptible to containing radon gas because it emanates from soil or rocks. Radon is known to be associated with lung cancer as it is a gaseous chemical agent under normal conditions and is also radioactive. Since there is little knowledge about radon in Brazilian mining workplaces, this study aims to measure occupational exposure to radon in mining environments through a proposed methodology and to verify its compliance with international standards to confirm the potential risk of exposure for employees. Radon concentration in open-pit mining work environments was measured and used as a basis for comparison to assess the proposed new evaluation method, which will consist of laboratory evaluations of samples taken from the same workplaces. The radon concentration data in the work environments were compared to laboratory tests for statistical correlation. The results, compared to reference values, tolerance limits, and action levels, showed that radon, in outdoor mining workplaces, can be considered a low risk to employees’ health. The application of the methodology also indicated that the laboratory tests and the field evaluations presented a statistical correlation with each other, being an indication that the laboratory tests can be used to estimate the risks in a preliminary way. Another important point is the fact that it was observed that measurements in the laboratory were more practical and faster to perform when compared to field evaluations. These facts can bring future gains in the number of tests performed and workplace evaluated in mining environments.

From these works and many others, we surmise the following conditions and factors to have been paramount to the electoral choices that led to Bolsonaro's victory: political contingencies (specifically, the sequence of processes described above) and the antiestablishment sentiments to which they gave rise; economic crisis (negatively impacting the labor sector); cultural and moral aspects (for example, around gender, sexuality, religion, and communism); generational tensions; backlash from elites; concerns over crime and safety; and the rise of social media.…”

“…Despite their "rise out of poverty," the newest arrivals to the middle class-now paying taxes and electricity bills and increasingly indebted-remained economically vulnerable and constrained in their participation in public consumptive life. Facing grueling commutes, poor public services, and violence disproportionately impacting their neighborhoods, the upwardly mobile poor, moreover, faced disdain and resentment from members of Brazil's established middle and upper classes (Cardoso 2020). Their economic mobility was always precarious and at risk of derailing, due to health problems, shifts in the labor market, policy changes, or simple bad luck.…”

How do sequences of upward and downward socioeconomic mobility influence political views among those who have “risen” or “fallen” during periods of leftist governance? While existing studies identify a range of factors, long-term mobility trajectories have been largely unexplored. The question has particular salience in contemporary Brazil, where, after a decade of extraordinary poverty reduction on the watch of the leftist Workers’ Party (PT), a subsequent period of economic and political crises intensified anti-PT sentiment. This article uses original data from the 2016 Brazil’s Once-Rising Poor (BORP) Survey, using a 3-city sample of 822 poor and working-class Brazilians to analyze the relationship between retrospective assessments of prior socioeconomic mobility and anti-PT sentiment. The study found that people who reported a “stalled” mobility sequence (upward mobility followed by static or downward mobility) were more likely to harbor anti-left sentiment than other groups, as measured by this study’s anti-PT index.

“…Over the past fifty years, an extensive literature has appeared regarding the production of urban peripheries in São Paulo. These studies have sought to analyse the informal character of access to land (Rolnik, 1997; Maricato, 2003), housing construction from self‐construction to housing programmes (Maricato, 1979, 2003; Rolnik, 2009; Caldeira, 2017; Cardoso, Jaenisch and Aragão, 2017; Ferreira et al, 2020), the selective and unequal nature of public investment in urban infrastructure and services (Kowarick, 1993; Villaça, 1998; Oliveira, 2003; Marques and Torres, 2005; Santos, 2008), internal socioeconomic differences (Torres et al, 2003), and residents' political organisation in search of better living conditions (Caldeira, 2002; Holston, 2008).…”

Since the beginning of the twenty-first century, expansion of the formal credit supply in Brazil has promoted the 'financial inclusion' of the low-income population, especially through instalment plans offered by large retail chains. This article aims to analyse the impacts of formal credit availability on the consumption of electrical and electronic goods by residents of Jardim Helena, a neighbourhood in São Paulo's periphery. Through the collection and analysis of qualitative and quantitative data, this study reveals how the instalment plan can stimulate consumption among the low-income population, with a significant impact on household budgets, raising the risk of indebtedness.
