RESUMO
O objetivo do presente artigo é discutir a relevância da amizade política para os idosos colaboradores do Projeto “Idosos Colaboradores” da Universidade Aberta da Terceira Idade - UnATI/UERJ, expressa na minha pesquisa de Mestrado em Serviço Social da PUC-Rio em 2005. O estudo foi fundamentado teoricamente na obra de Hannah Arendt, que apresenta a dimensão política da amizade como uma ação desenvolvida pelo diálogo público e plural no mundo comum a todos. Verificamos nas entrevistas que os idosos apresentaram elementos significativos que identificam a prática da amizade política. A amizade política possibilita o debate e a luta dos idosos, junto com as demais gerações, para assegurar e ampliar os seus direitos, garantidos nas políticas sociais.
ABSTRACT
The aim of this article is to discuss the relevance of political friendship for the elderly collaborating with the “Elderly Collaborators” Project sponsored by the Third Age Open University (UnATI/UERJ), which is mentioned in my research for granting a M.S degree in Social Services at the Pontifical Catholic University of Rio de Janeiro, in the year of 2005. This study was theoretically based on Hannah Arendt’s works, which presents the political dimension of friendship as an action developed by the public and plural dialogs in the world common to all people. The interviews showed that the elderly presented significant elements that point out to the practice of political friendship. The political friendship enables the debate and the struggle of the elderly, along with the other generations, to assure and increase their rights, which are ensured in the social policies.
