Vol. 3 No. 2 (2022)The UEG Atâtôt-Interdisciplinary Journal of Human Rights aims to be an academic publication with open access, peer review, and continuous annual publication (various volumes throughout the year) from the State University of Goiás. In this edition, from September 2022, Atâtôt continues to serve as an interdisciplinary space that encourages the development of a holistic view of the struggle for social and political rights, for democracy, through lenses that focus on human rights.
This volume contains works that stimulate scientific dialogue in various areas, such as civil society, banking institutions, and occupational health, among others.
In the first article, The UN Standards on Adequate Housing for Civil Society Action, authors Manoel Severino Moraes de Almeida and Luis Emmanuel Barbosa da Cunha base themselves on the principle of non-discrimination to analyze softlaw institutes in the implementation of the right to adequate housing, as well as as the role of the UN (United Nations) in the International Covenant Committee on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights (ICESCR) and, from CRFB/88, of the Dom Helder Camara Center (CENDHEC) in Recife, Pernambuco, Brazil. While using the international bias, the constitutional perspective is the background for the authors' questions and for the construction of analyzes about the roles of organized civil society, in the face of the challenges faced for the realization of the right to housing in the countryside and in the cities, both nationally and internationally.
In the second article, by Rebeca de Magalhães Melo and Paulo José Leite Faria, entitled Fundamental right to work: organizational moral harassment as an attack on human dignity, the authors approach the exploitation of work in the banking environment, under an aspect of pollution of this environment, caused by moral harassment and organizational practices that protect themselves in legal formalities. They also analyze a specific case (Banco Santander) and the possibility of using compliance in these work environments, to improve the quality of life of workers, in order to maintain human dignity and protect human rights.
In the third article, When does the prince become a frog? Reactions of sociologists in articles to the veto of mandatory sociology teaching in the Fernando Henrique Cardoso government (1995-2001) and the right to education, Ricardo Lopes critically analyzes the veto of the then president, Fernando Henrique Cardoso, which could have inserted sociology as a mandatory subject in Brazilian high school and did not do so, despite the nickname he received as “Prince of Sociology” and his training in the area. The author's analyzes run through interesting paths: from the understanding of what betrayal would be, as well as the academic and political history of the then president and, finally, the expectations nurtured by his peers, sociologists and scientists, which were frustrated by the presidential veto.
In the fourth article by Atâtôt, entitled Brazilian Neoliberal State in 2019: The Situation of Bolsa Família and the Anti-Crime Package, the authors Luísa Neis Ribeiro and Luana Renostro Heinen build an analysis of the neoliberal state and social welfare through the study of two public policies (the Bolsa Família Program and the implementation of the Anti-Crime Law). The text brings an accurate perception of the figure of the State transfigured into a Centaur, half rational and human, with a nature that stimulates economic benefits for a dominant class, and half horse, penalizing and animalistic for the most vulnerable classes. The authors criticize the conflict of these policies and how new punitive ethics are constructed and naturalized, based on a political-ideological model of supposed fight against crime, with a strong economic orientation.
Finally, the essay Con la guerrilla en el Poder no debería haber disculpa para la paz, by Robert Posada Rosero, brings reflections on the need to develop a culture of peace in Colombia, so that impunity and the occurrence of violations of human rights, by any of the agents and under any argument that allows humanitarian violations in the name of the State, or denying its name: either the Army, the Paramilitary Organizations, or the FARC. On the other hand, freedom of the press also figures as centrality in a Democratic State, allowing the implementation of human rights, regardless of social class, political preference, or ideological position.

Dossier on Popular and Institutional Protection of Human Rights Defenders in Latin America
Vol. 4 No. 2 (2023)Atâtôt, the Interdisciplinary Journal of Human Rights of UEG, is a biannual academic publication under the responsibility of the State University of Goiás. Its aim is to create interdisciplinary spaces for the publication of articles, essays, reviews, and other academic texts on the general theme of human rights, focusing on topics related to democracy, constitutional issues, and social struggles for rights.
In the December 2023 edition, Atâtôt, the Interdisciplinary Journal of Human Rights from UEG, dedicates exclusive space to analyze the challenges and progress in the protection of human rights defenders in Latin America. In exploring popular and institutional strategies, our intention is to stimulate deep reflections on the preservation of these agents of change and strengthen protective networks, thereby contributing to the construction of fairer and more inclusive societies.
The first article "The Popular Protection of Human Rights Defenders: lessons learned in the Elma Novais case", by Luis Emmanuel Barbosa da Cunha, The Elma Novais case stands out as an emblematic example in the creation of a formal/institutional protection methodology for human rights defenders. At the turn of the millennium, while witnesses and children were already protected, defenders did not have adequate safeguards. The experience of popular protection was crucial, revealing how the State's initial approach to protecting Elma Novais was mistaken. The knowledge accumulated and systematized by the Seeds Project represents a historic mark of civil society.
