A identidade do professor: desafios colocados pela globalização*

‘Affectfullness’ is called the way of life defended by Theoretical System of Affectfullness (TSA) in which the interactions we experience in the world can become rich and meaningful. Seen in these terms, it may be understood as a method that provides parameters for analyzing our experiences and investing in our full development as human beings. As of this approach, the teaching and learning activities should also be seen from a broader perspective, since they have a relevant role in the developmental path of our species. Therefore, it is argued that in scholastic institutions, the teacher – the person in charge of ‘teaching’- needs to experience opportunities and perspectives of self-development which happens through participation in healthy interactions and appropriate conditions to carry out their work of transmitting the input of knowledge produced by humanity from generation to generation. However, unfortunately we have noticed that a large number of elementary school teachers in Brazil do not perceive themselves inserted in a context full of development possibilities, both of themselves and of their own students. Teachers experience discomfort and anxieties, which in turn result in disenchantment with their teaching activities. This paper aims to explore, based on the literature researched, some of the difficulties lived by performing teachers which were organized in seven sections that indicate how the integrity of the ‘teaching profession’ has negatively been affected. Then, it promoted a dialogue with the Theoretical System of Affectfullness (TSA) in order to elicit reflections, which contribute to the teachers arouse an “affectively expanded look” on the dimension of their daily work and their professional identity, becoming able to positively affect their work environment and help modify this reality for better.

“…It should be noted that, influenced by the socialization and cultural history of the institution, professional practice involves dynamic processes capable of causing interference in its identity, which is then constructed and reformulated with the interaction established among social actors, through the meaning that human beings verify themselves or those who are attributed by others. 19 And so, the professional identity of the obstetric nurse tends to be differentiated when this social actor experiences contexts with cultural characteristics of the professional appreciation. 14 Cultural differences, values, meanings and symbolic systems of a group are increasingly visible and relevant in the field of social practices.…”

Objectives: to understand the cultural context presented in hospitals and its relation to the obstetric nurse's autonomous practice on low-risk childbirth care. Methods: ethnographic research performed in three public maternities in Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil. Three managers and twenty-three obstetric nurses participated in this research. Results: distinctive on cultural, organizational and structural aspects of the hospital institution interfering directly with the obstetric nurse's autonomous practice. Among these aspects, professional appreciation on low-risk childbirth care contributes for the nurse's autonomy Conclusions: it was noticed that obstetric nurses undergo different contexts of action, which directly interfere with their autonomy on low-risk childbirth care and their decisionmaking abilities. It is necessary, then, to eradicate the relation of dominance and submission that it is still imposed by medical hegemony.

“…15 It should be noted that the professional work model involves dynamic processes, influenced by the socialization and cultural history of the institution. 38 These characteristics place them in a social role that is considered hierarchically inferior to the authority of the health professionals, who place themselves as knowledge holders and holders of the childbirth care process. From this construct, professional-user relations marked by obstetric violence emanate, 15 leading professionals who do not share this attitude to moral suffering.…”

Objective: to know the situations found in the work of nurses working in maternity hospitals and obstetric centers that can lead to moral suffering. Method: qualitative, exploratory and descriptive study, developed with 14 nurses working in bstetric centers and maternities of two hospitals in southern Brazil. Data were collected from October 2015 to January 2016, through a semi-structured interview, analyzed based on Content Analysis. Results: there was an occurrence of moral distress related to the activities that supplanted nurses’ execution capacity, leading them to prioritize administrative and managerial activities, for which they are charged by the institutions, failing to participate directly in the care, an aspect enhanced by the quantitative nursing professionals. Asymmetric relations of power and conflicting interactions compose an atmosphere of toleration for the autonomy of the nurses, preventing them from acting in harmony with their knowledge and moral values. The fruitless attempts to change the dehumanizing context through advocacy and the visualization of disrespectful, interventionist and violent behaviors against women, generate moral suffering. Conclusion: the plurality of nurse actions, reduced autonomy, disrespect for their practice and the visualization of dehumanizing behaviors generate moral suffering. It is important to seek alternatives so that nurses may act and advocate in line with their moral knowledge and values, in an autonomous and empowered way, aiming to provide a dignified and safe childbirth assistance, and an environment that respects the woman and her autonomy.
