Abstract
An analysis is presented of the work of three international entities in Brazilian favelas in the 1960s: Brasil-Estados Unidos Movimento, Desenvolvimento e Organização de Comunidade; Ação Comunitária do Brasil; and the United Nations. These entities conveyed the ideal of developmentalism through technical cooperation with countries deemed underdeveloped, drawing on the pure and applied social sciences through community development. Documents from the Anthony Leeds archive at Casa de Oswaldo Cruz were used to analyze these entities' actions in the favelas and their conceptions of development. Their official documents were compared, including newspapers and programs, as well as fieldnotes and letters by social scientists engaged in fieldwork in favelas in the period.
本报告分析了1960年代三个国际实体在巴西贫民窟的工作:巴西-运动、发展和社会组织;a o Comunitária do Brasil;以及联合国。这些实体通过与被认为不发达的国家进行技术合作,通过社区发展利用纯粹和应用的社会科学,传达了发展主义的理想。来自Casa de Oswaldo Cruz的Anthony Leeds档案的文件被用来分析这些实体在贫民窟的行动和他们的发展概念。比较了他们的官方文件,包括报纸和节目,以及在这一时期从事贫民窟田野调查的社会科学家的实地记录和信件。
