    Abstract In this paper I discuss the concept of the right to the city in articulation with the concept of urban play and more specifically, the diverse body of research related with playable and playful cities. Following a brief review of these two concepts and related studies, I critically discuss the possibilities of articulating Lefebvre's radical concept of the right to the city to contemporary interventions on urban and digital play.

    Abstract Although militaristic metaphors have been pervasive during health crisis in political and science communication, few works have examined how these linguistic devices may influence crisis communication. Drawing on critical discourse analysis (CDA) and on crisis communication literature, I show how political representatives have used the war metaphor for very different purposes in terms of crisis communication and management of the current Covid-19 pandemic. I suggest that these findings challenge previous criticisms of the war metaphor as inherently negative and damaging. Finally, I discuss possibilities of using CDA, and specifically, metaphor analysis to inform and expand crisis communication.

  3. Article ; Online: Children's Green Infrastructure: Children and Their Rights to Nature and the City.

    Abstract The development of green spaces in cities has corresponded to a need to deal with a series of socio-environmental and health problems felt in urban spaces. However, these are often fragmented or somewhat disconnected interventions that leave out vulnerable and subaltern groups like children, being also commonly based on strictly formatted designs, with more urban furniture than natural elements. In view of the need to make urban spaces healthier, safer, more resilient, and at the same time more child-friendly, in this Conceptual Analysis paper we build from the literature on Urban Green Spaces, Child-Friendly Cities and environments, and Children's Infrastructure to propose the concept of Children Green Infrastructure (CGI), and discuss its application to urban planning, foregrounding the need for fairer, more inclusive and participatory approaches. GGI derives from the Children Infrastructure concept but it puts at the center of the debate the idea of connecting children to nature where they live, learn and play. CGI is based on the assumption that nature should be transversal in urban planning processes, and that it must be perfectly integrated within urban infrastructures, ensuring access to all. Understanding children's needs and integrating their voices in urban planning and design processes are necessary conditions to moving forward to a fairer, more inclusive and truly collective urban project.

    social inequalities in representing and using urban public spaces

    Abstract This paper was written under the research project CRiCity: “Children and their Right to the City: Tackling urban inequity through the participatory design of child-friendly cities” developed in Lisbon and Porto and funded by the Portuguese Foundation for Science and Technology (FCT) through national funds (PTDC/SOC-SOC/30415/2017). We focus on two case-studies developed in Porto. Our aim is to present some of the findings of the focus groups and drawing activities developed with children in two institutions. During this research, it was evident that children from middle and high classes are more subjected to institutionalization, domestication and hyper-protection processes than those from lower social classes. Also, we conclude that the phenomena of insularization and specialization contributes to aggravating restrictions on public spaces by producing forms of socio-spatial segregation depending not only on age, but also on class and social status.

    Abstract A internacionalização, ancorada na ideia de competitividade numa economia mundial baseada no conhecimento é uma das forças motrizes das reformas do ensino superior na Europa. Numa altura de crise económica, a internacionalização torna-se fundamental para a angariação de alunos e promoção da instituição numa escala global. Para Portugal, o espaço ‘lusófono’ surge como um mercado preferencial, legitimado por racionais políticos, económicos e culturais que ligam a ideia de ‘lusofonia’ à educação. Neste artigo procuro analisar criticamente a forma como a imprensa portuguesa (comparando os semanários Expresso e Sol) reconstroem estes discursos sobre lusofonia e internacionalização.

    Abstract Partindo da constatação de que o recente interesse renovado dos cientistas sociais pelo fenômeno do terrorismo não se tem traduzido em um seu entendimento interdisciplinar maior, sugere-se que isso decorre do baixo nível de questionamento dos investigadores sobre o carácter político e ideológico dos seus estudos. Assumir que o terrorismo é uma construção social e política leva-nos a questionarmo-nos acerca das diferentes concepções de emancipação e regulação social que orientam a investigação desse fenômeno. Este artigo visa a explorar essa questão, problematizando a conceituação do terrorismo a partir da análise de quatro núcleos temáticos: as concepções políticas clássicas do terrorismo e o ponto de vista dos líderes revolucionários marxistas sobre esse fenômeno; as diversas concepções dos cientistas sociais e políticos sobre o novo terrorismo transnacional; a relação entre a democracia e o Direito na luta contra o terrorismo e a concepção do terrorismo como construção social. A análise conceitual realizada permitiu chegar a três questões que se sugere essenciais para uma Ciência Social crítica que vise a criar e a estimular alternativas de emancipação social. A primeira dessas questões diz respeito à impossibilidade de neutralidade científica e definição consensual do terrorismo; a segunda prende-se à análise do terrorismo a partir das vozes das suas vítimas; a terceira questão concerne à relação entre terrorismo, Direito e democracia.
