Resumo
A presente tese tem como objetivo analisar a racionalização das tradições num contexto de modernidade tardia. A análise tem como ponto de partida as tradições gaúchas e sua manifestação nos Centros de Tradição Gaúcha (CTG). O estudo foi desenvolvido com base na bibliografia especializada sobre o tema e em uma pesquisa efetuada durante o ENART 2008 - Encontro de Arte e Tradição Gaúcha, realizado em 2008 na cidade de Santa Cruz do Sul – RS. Os estudos apontam que a modernidade tardia traz à tona a reflexividade e racionalização das relações, experiências e tradições. Tradições são (re)inventadas e, neste caso, (re)inventadas tendo o CTG como cenário e esta (re)invenção permite manter os vínculos e a sociabilidade do grupo sócio-cultural que se reconhece enquanto grupo e se diferencia dos demais por identificar-se em torno de símbolos, práticas, crenças e rituais que os une, pois é comum a todos eles, independente do espaço geográfico que ocupem. Na modernidade tardia o caráter de ludicidade atribuído às tradições (re)inventadas no CTG é o fio condutor para inúmeras relações que se estabelecem nesse cenário e é o combustível de todas as práticas e rituais vivenciados ali. A ludicidade das atividades dá sentido às práticas tradicionalistas e à toda tradição que foi (re)inventada e que passa a ser racionalizada no contexto de modernidade reflexiva. Conclui-se que essa apropriação do caráter lúdico das tradições e as relações estabelecidas no CTG a partir dos símbolos, práticas e rituais sinalizam que estamos vivenciando no Brasil um contexto de modernidade tardia. No contexto da modernidade tardia, a tradição racionalizada é uma maneira de evitar choques entre diferentes valores e modos de vida, uma vez que age como articuladora de atores e grupos sociais, entre as diferentes instâncias do mundo social.
This thesis analyzes the rationalization of the traditions in the context of late modernity. The analysis takes as its starting point the Gaúcho traditions and its manifestation in the Centers of Gaúcho Tradition (CTG). The study was developed based on the professional literature on the subject and in a survey conducted during the ENART 2008 - Meeting of Art and Gaúcho Tradition, held in 2008 in Santa Cruz do Sul - RS. The research suggests that late modernity brings to light the reflectivity and rationalization of the relationships, experiences and traditions. Traditions are (re) invented and, in this case, (re) invented having the CTG as a backdrop and this (re) invention keeps the links and the sociability of the socio-cultural group, that is recognized as a group, and differentiates itself by identifying them around symbols, practices, beliefs and rituals that unites them, because it is common to all, regardless of geographical space they occupy. In late modernity, the character of playfulness attributed to traditions are (re) invented in CTG and it is the thread for many relationships established in this scenario and is the fuel of all the experienced practices and rituals. The playfulness of the activities gives practical meaning to traditionalists and the whole tradition that has been (re) invented and which is being rationalized in the context of reflexive modernity. It was concluded that this ownership of the playful character of the traditions and relationships with the CTG around the symbols, rituals and practices, indicates that we are experiencing in Brazil a context of late modernity. In the context of late modernity, tradition is a streamlined way to avoid clashes between different values and ways of life, since it acts as articulator of actors and social groups, between different instances of the social world.
