Only the death notices that mentioned Covid-19 as the cause of death were selected. Therefore, of the 376 published in the period from June 2020 to September 2021, 124 met this criterion.</p> <p><strong>Results:</strong> It was possible to perceive that the health crisis contributed to the expansion of the tradition of publishing obituaries. In addition to increasing the number of pages reserved for death notes, the magazine created an online memorial dedicated exclusively to the memory of the victims of the pandemic. This allowed the bereaved families to pay their respects and record the memories of their loved ones in a context of denial of the right to mourning, restrictions on funeral rites and quick burials.</p> <p><strong>Conclusion:</strong> The pandemic scenario seems to have influenced the constitution of the memories themselves, considering the fact that some of these obituary narratives highlighted the positive attitudes of these people despite the chaotic scenario. In addition, the publication of the death notices of the victims of the pandemic also seems to have taken on the meaning of recording what the health crisis itself was and its impact on Adventism.</p> Marcio Adriano Tonete Marcelino Allan Macedo de Novaes Copyright (c) 2023 Marcio Adriano Tonete Marcelino, Allan Macedo de Novaes https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 2023-08-07 2023-08-07 10 e01549 e01549 10.19141/2237-3756.lifestyle.v10.n00.pe01549 Circular Economy, Supply Chain Management, and Commodities: Research Agenda in the Sustainable Context https://periodicosalumniin.org/LifestyleJournal/article/view/1560 <p><strong>Purpose:</strong> The research addresses the implementation of the circular economy in the sustainable supply chain, made possible through commodities in the sustainable context. The article seeks higher levels of sustainability, given the strong mobilization of society for products with better environmental performance.</p> <p><strong>Method:</strong> Although many studies address the concepts separately, few studies advance in the integrated view of the functioning of the supply chain of circular products. The systematic literature review sought to relate the integration of the concepts by identifying key aspects of stakeholders, processes and tools, which can be synchronized to assist organizations in implementing the circular environment in supply chain operations and generate sustainability gains.</p> <p><strong>Results:</strong> The evolution of the supply chain as a result of producers' competition needs, aiming at market improvements and cost reduction, the value generation along the chain is very focused on delivering specificity to the customer. Therefore, the supply chain is sustainable because it needs to perform well in traditional financial measures, including that when it comes to sustainability in the supply chain this can be formed by three dimensions: social, environmental and economic.</p> <p><strong>Conclusion:</strong> The work opens the way for future research and practical applications, considering the need for systemic operation of technologies that promote joint action and cooperation environment between organizations, which favor sustainability gains.</p> Daiane Johann Ruan Carlos dos Santos Alessandra Yula Tutida Copyright (c) 2023 Daiane Johann, Ruan Carlos dos Santos, Alessandra Yula Tutida https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 2023-07-24 2023-07-24 10 e01560 e01560 10.19141/2237-3756.lifestyle.v10.n00.pe01560 Mapping Sustainable Development Goals Research in Social Sciences: A Bibliometric Analysis https://periodicosalumniin.org/LifestyleJournal/article/view/1562 <p><strong>Objective:</strong> This study aims to conduct a bibliometric analysis to track the evolution of research on sustainable development goals in the social sciences field.
