Light and Power: The Panopticon as a Political Form and its Variations
Authors: Kaspe Svyatoslav
Published: May 2020

After Michel Foucault, Bentham’s Panopticon became a widely recognized image of the modern state. The article focuses on some aspects of this strong metaphor that were not taken into account by Foucault or most other researchers. The question of the sources of light in the Panopticon, also understood metaphorically as a sine qua non for the exercise of power and for its legitimacy at the same time, allows to describe such variations of the state’s political form that is based on either a “political religion” (adjacent to a totalitarian phenomenon), or secular (adjacent to liberalism) and based on the “civil religion” (the most complicated of all). A key variable here is the mode to interface the political and the sacred. If in the pre-modern era the openness of political forms for influences emanating from the sacred was presumed, in modern states the political reaches autonomy; the political becomes emancipated from the sacred, and occupies its place in the most radical scenarios. The author argues that in the future, the highest sustainability will be demonstrated by those variations of the state political form in which this autonomy is not completed, or where the connections between the political and the sacred are maintained, albeit at a reduced level, that is, those in which “civil religion” is practiced.

Published: May 2020

Tissue-based cyclic immunofluorescence (t-CyCIF) is optimized for FFPE specimens mounted on glass slides. Dewaxing and antigen retrieval are important steps to remove wax and expose antigenic sites. This protocol describes dewaxing and antigen retrieval on a Leica Bond RX automated slide processor; similar instruments are manufactured by Ventana or Dako and are commonly found in histopathology core facilities. t-CyCIF can also be performed following manual de-waxing and antigen retrieval (e.g. microwaving slides in citrate buffer or using a pressure cooker).

Multiplexed scNOMe-seq protocol based on isolated single nuclei v2
Authors: Pott Sebastian , Wasney Michael , Khan Nadia
Published: May 2020

What follows is the protocol for performing single-cell Nucleosome Occupancy and Methylome sequencing on single nuclei (scNOMe-seq). This plate-based method, which can be used to simultaneously assess nucleosome occupancy and DNA methylation in single nuclei, draws upon the approach laid out in Luo et al., 2018. Everything from the initial nuclei sorting step to the final library preparation that directly precedes sequencing is included in this protocol. This protocol is optimized for non-neuronal nuclei and can be applied to a range of different cell types (e.g., intestinal organoid, fibroblasts). This is the method we are using and it is working. Adapted from "Robust single-cell DNA methylome profiling with snmC-seq2," by C. Luo et al., 2018, Nature Communications 9(1), pp. 1-6. Copyright 2018 by the authors.

Published: May 2020

Los malos tratos hacia las personas mayores están influenciados por patrones culturales, el contexto histórico,  el entorno sociocultural y los juicios de valor que la sociedad construye  en torno a la vejez. El maltrato a esta población no ha tenido la misma resonancia en la sociedad que el ejercido a niños y mujeres; sin embargo, en los últimos años ha comenzado a ser visible como un problema de interés público. La presente revisión tiene como objetivo presentar los principales conceptos y características del maltrato al adulto mayor y describir la magnitud de este fenómeno social en el mundo y en Colombia desde 1975 hasta 2018.

Authors: DÖNÜK Atilla
Published: May 2020

Leakage inductance component has a
significant importance in total inductance value of GISR. Neglecting this
component in the design phase, results in an expensive and bulky core
structure. Variation of leakage inductance component in percentage is
determined and presented as graphical curves for M4 steel by applying energy
method.  FEA are performed for various
GISR with several operating voltages and temperature rise values to determine
the leakage inductance component. A design tool with Matlab/Guide is also developed
for analytical calculations to obtain the physical dimensions for FEA. Graphical
curves introduced to the literature in this work provide manufacturers or
design engineers to perform fast, reliable and economical GISR design with an alternative material

Tax Cuts and Fee Reductions and Labor Demand of SMEs
Authors: Xiao Suwei
Published: May 2020

Policies to cut taxes and fees are important means to deal with the economic downturn, which strongly support to the development of the majority of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). The current study has no consistent conclusion of whether SMEs expand their labor demand because of this. This paper builds a structural vector autoregressive (VAR) model to analyze the dynamic effects of tax cuts and fee reduction policies on increasing labor demand for SMEs. The empirical results show that tax cuts and fee reductions are important causes of short-term employment fluctuations, but in the long run, it is difficult for taxation policies to have a direct positive effect on employment. Therefore, this article puts forward the idea that different tax incentives can be formulated for small and medium-sized enterprises in the short term according to their life cycles. In the long run, the focus of macro-control needs to be turned to supply management to achieve the goal of stable employment.

Authors: Freire da Silva Raiziane Cássia , Seibert Rosane Maria , Rossner Wbatuba Berenice Beatriz
Published: May 2020

O estudo teve por objetivo identificar os fatores extrínsecos que motivam o absenteísmo, justificado por atestado médico, dos colaboradores de uma Instituição de Ensino Superior (IES). É um estudo de caso em uma IES escolhida por acessibilidade, com 207 técnicos-administrativos ativos no período de 07/2015 à 08/2016 e 412 atestados médicos válidos para pesquisa. Por meio de análise das evidências e testes econométricos verificou-se que o absenteísmo é maior nos colaboradores do sexo feminino, nos colaboradores alocados nos setores da contabilidade e laboratórios biológicos, e sendo responsável por esses setores, o número de ausência por atestado aumenta. As ausências são maiores nos colaboradores que trabalham somente no turno da manhã ou em dois turnos seguidos. Os solteiros são os que menos apresentam atestado para justificar ausências. A pesquisa apresentou limitações por utilizar apenas dados primários disponíveis no setor de RH e não investigar o comportamento dos colaboradores.
FACTORS INFLUENCING THE EFFECTIVENESS OF TELEVISION COMMERCIALS IN URBAN AREA IN EGYPT
Authors: M Ali Abdallah Ali Mohamed , Ahamat Amiruddin , Jawabri Adnan
Published: May 2020

Purpose: This research examined the effects of television-advertising viewing on the perceived wealth in society and the materialistic value orientations among adolescents in urban Egypt.

Methodology: A survey on two hundred (200) adolescents aged eleven (11) to seventeen (17) was conducted in 2013. The urban sub-sample consisted of one hundred (100) respondents studying in Grade 7 and Grade 8 from a secondary school in Cairo city. The rural sub-sample consisted of one hundred (100) respondents studying in Grade 7 and Grade 8 from two (2) rural secondary schools in Alexandria.

Main Findings: In the survey among urban (Cairo) adolescent respondents, it was found that there were higher estimates among adolescents whose family-owned five (5) modern-day products namely desktop computers, cameras, air conditioners and motorcars. This finding is not surprising as urban dwellers have a higher income than rural folks which translated into the higher purchasing power of buying modern-day products. Urban adolescents’ families owned more than rural adolescents’ families in terms of modern-day products namely desktop computers, cameras, air-conditioners and motorcars except for handphones as there was almost no difference in terms of owning handphones for urban or rural adolescents’ families.

Implications: In addition, marketers are advised to consider placing advertisements on national television in their quest to reach out and promote their products and services to adolescents living in urban areas, as frequent watching of advertisements on television by adolescents in urban areas has a positive correlation with greater materialistic value.

Novelty: The importance of this study is that it has managed to present empirical evidence that television advertising has an influence on materialism and perceived level of wealth among adolescents in urban areas of Egypt.
Sympathy for the Devil - The Creative Transformation of the Evil
Authors: Holm-Hadulla Rainer Matthias
Published: May 2020

Mythologies, religions, philosophies, and ideologies show that all cultures are concerned with human destructivity. The same is readily apparent in many modern creative works of eminence. In their famous song, “Sympathy for the Devil,” Mick Jagger and the Rolling Stones refer to Goethe’s Faust, where the Devil is characterized strangely as “a portion of that power/ which always works for the Evil and effects the Good … a part of Darkness which gave birth to Light”. These verses remind one of ancient myth but also of modern ideas of the interplay of creation and destruction. The poetry of Goethe, the scientific psychoanalysis of Freud, and the aesthetic enactments of Madonna Ciccone and Mick Jagger show that the creative transformation of destructiveness provides a chance to cope with evil. Through his poetic and autobiographic self-reflection Goethe described how men are composed of constructive and destructive forces, light and dark, good and evil. This dialectic of drives and activities is also fundamental for the Freudian scientific model of the mind and its interrelation with the body and the social environment. Humans can only survive when they transform their destructive inclinations into constructive activities. The creative transformation of destructiveness is also a central issue in today’s pop culture. Paradigmatically the song ‘Sympathy for the Devil’ describes the atrocities humans are able to commit. The song is exemplary for the transformation of violence into music, dance, and shared aesthetic experience. This is also valid for the provocative enactments of Madonna. Behind her sometimes seemingly shameless enactments one can find a serious working through of depression and aggression. Fundamental elements of aesthetic pleasure in art, science, and social activity stem from the creative transformation of human destructiveness.

Anastomosis tubo-tubaria en el Instituto Materno Infantil de Bogotá. Diez años de experiencia
Authors: Pacheco Consuegra Carlos , León José W.
Published: May 2020

Se revisan 90 historias clínicas de pacientes que consultan a la Clínica de Infertilidad del Instituto Materno Infantil de Bogotá para recanalización tubárica posterior a esterilización quirúrgica en el período del 1o. de enero de 1983 al 31 de diciembre de 1992. Se practicó la evaluación completa de la pareja para determinar la presencia de factores de infertilidad diferentes a la ligadura tubárica. El factor tuboperitoneal fue evaluado por laparoscopia previo en la gran mayoría de los casos pero se omitió en 18 casos basados en los datos de la cirugía. Se realizó la anastomosis con técnica microquirúrgica, lupas con aumento de 4X para magnificación y suturas Vicryl 7-0 u 8-0, irrigación con Lactato Ringer con heparina y corticoides y antibióticos. Se realizaron 53 anastomosis, 41 posteriores a bandas de silastic y 12 a ligadura por técnica de Pomeroy, con una tasa global de embarazo a término del 62 %, embarazo ectópico del 4% y aborto en 2%. El resultado fue mejor para las bandas que para el Pomeroy (66% vs. 50%). No se encontró diferencia para el tiempo de ligadura ni segmento anastomosado. El resultado de la anastomosis intramural itsmica (75%) demuestra la utilidad de las lupas aún en este segmento. La tasa de embarazo para longitud tubárica residual mayor de 6 cms. (72%) fue mejor que para longitudes de 4-6 cms. (55%). Se demuestra la utilidad de las lupas en microcirugía, la longitud tubárica residual como factor pronóstico y las tasas y tiempos de embarazo.

Authors: Barón Castañeda Germán , Motta María Cristina
Published: May 2020

La infertilidad, entendida como un año de relaciones no protegidas sin lograr la concepción, es un trastorno frecuente que puede presentarse entre un 10 y un 20% de las parejas. Son múltiples los factores que intervienen en su génesis y que requieren diversos manejos. Se revisan 92 parejas con diagnóstico de infertilidad que han asistido a la consulta de la Unidad de Investigación Clínica en Reproducción Humana del Hospital Infantil “Lorencita Villegas de Santos”. Se encuentra que tanto los casos de infertilidad primaria como de secundaria corresponden cada uno a un 50%. La edad promedio de la mujer fue de 30.7 ± 4.76 años y la del hombre 33.1 ± 5.87. El tiempo de evolución de la infertilidad de 3.53 ± 2.6 años. Los factores encontrados como causantes de la infertilidad fueron: masculino en el 40.2%, tubo-peritoneal en el 44.6%, ovulatorio en 34.8%, inmunológico 23.9%, endometriosis 20.6%, uterino 17.4% y cervical 5.43%. La tasa de deserción es elevada, del 51%, problema frecuente de los diversos centros de infertilidad del país. Con los diferentes tipos de tratamiento se logró una tasa de embarazos del 50%, terminando en forma respectiva 5.4% en abortos y embarazos ectópicos. La tasa de embarazos posterior a microcirugía es del 65%, presentándose apenas un 5% de embarazos ectópicos. Con inseminación intrauterina se obtuvo una tasa de embarazos de 76.5%, llegando de ellos sólo el 47.1% al término. Se concluye que con un diagnóstico y manejo adecuados se puede brindar ayuda a parejas de escasos recursos económicos. Se destaca la importancia del factor tubo-peritoneal, posiblemente debido a la alta incidencia de enfermedades de transmisión sexual y por tratarse de un centro de remisión para cirugía tubárica.

Relationship between monocyte to high-density lipoprotein ratio and contrast-induced nephropathy in patients with non-st elevation myocardial infarction
Authors: BAYDAR Onur , KILIÇ Alparslan
Published: May 2020

Aim: Contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) is associated with worse prognosis in patients with non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI). Early identification patients with a high risk of CIN are very crucial to improve outcomes. The monocyte to high-density lipoprotein ratio (MHR) is a novel inflammatory marker. We aimed to investigate the MHR had a predictive role for CIN development in patients with NSTEMI. Material and Methods: NSTEMI who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) were included in the study. MHR was calculated and CIN was defined as an increase in serum creatinine 25% or 0.5 mg/dl from baseline in the first 48- 72 hours. Results: A total of 370(200, 54.1% men) patients were included in this study and 104 (28.1%) of them had DM. 25 (6.7%) of patients had CIN. MHR was significantly higher in patients with CIN (0.014± 0.004 vs 0.011± 0.006-respectively, p: 0.017). MHR was also significantly correlated with creatinine levels after PCI (r:0,104, p: 0.047). CIN group also experienced a more complicated in-hospital clinical course. Additionally; weight and MHR were detected as independent risk factors of CIN in logistic regression analysis.Conclusion: Preprocedural MHR may be used as cheap, easy and simple marker of CIN. It may help with the early identification of patients with NSTEMI who are at high risk of CIN.
Adolf Reinach, Negative States of Affairs and the Concept of Omission
Authors: Woleński Jan
Published: May 2020

This paper examines Adolf Reinach’s views about negative states of affairs. The author briefly presents the history of the issue from the Middle Ages to the 20th century. The views of Reinach and Roman Ingarden are compared. A special focus is ascribed to the problem of omissions in the legal sense. According to the author, a proper solution to the problem of negative states of affairs locates negation at the level of language, not in reality.

These are the two questions to which the present paper “Deviation without contradiction in Adolf Reinach’s ontology” is devoted. The aim of the paper is to analyse the relations between a priori juridical propositions and propositions of positive law as investigated by Adolf Reinach. The Author presents and illustrates Adolf Reinach’s conception of conditioned a priori connections.
Reinach and Kantorowicz: Justice, Phenomenological Realism and the Free Law Movement
Authors: Baltzer-Jaray Kimberly
Published: May 2020

Adolf Reinach met and befriended Hermann Kantorowicz in one of Lujo Brentano’s political economy seminars during the 1901/1902 academic year at the University of Munich. After Munich, Kantorowicz would go on to be a major contributor to the Free Law Movement (Freirechtsbewegung) in Germany and play an important role in the development of the sociology of law in the 20th century. Reinach encountered the work of Edmund Husserl while studying with Lipps and later became central to the phenomenological movement in Göttingen. But all the while he remained interested in and focused on issues related to justice. His last scholarly publication before leaving for battle in WWI, Die apriorischen Grundlagen des bürgerlichen Rechtes (The a priori Foundations of Civil Law, 1913) published in the very first edition of the Jahrbuch für Philosophie und phänomenologische Forschung (Yearbook for Philosophy and Phenomenological Research) is a testament to this. Here we see Reinach taking his phenomenological education and applying it to entities of justice. I believe Kantorowicz inspired this lasting interest in matters of justice.

This essay will focus on the influence of Kantorowicz on Reinach, and while doing so attempt to flesh out and contrast the ways in which these two men sought to overcome the problems of justice (Recht) of their time. Many of these problems still continue to be relevant today.
Creative thinking skills in the Lebanese schools from secondary physics teachers’ perspectives
Authors: Yehya Fouad
Published: May 2020

This paper examines the degree of enhancing creative thinking skills in the physics curriculum in Lebanese secondary schools from the physics teachers’ perspectives. It is realistic based study adopted the descriptive quantitative method to collect data by questioner from 141 Lebanese secondary physics teachers from different Lebanese districts. Furthermore, an open-ended interview with many physics teachers was used to triangulate the survey obtained data. Results of both descriptive and inferential statistics indicated that the degree of using creative thinking in the Lebanese secondary schools and curricula is low and insufficient. Moreover, the results showed no statistically significant differences in the level of physics teachers’ perceptions about the role of the Lebanese curriculum and secondary schools of enhancing creative thinking skills among physics teachers’ gender, qualification and years of experience. Physics teachers must improve their divergent methods of teaching. Furthermore, professional development for teachers and appropriate training for learners on different learning strategies and the integration of well-designed activities in the curricula are a must to improve learners’ creative thinking skills.

Revision of the rhynchonellid brachiopod genus Ripidiorhynchus SARTENAER
Authors: SARTENAER Paul
Published: May 2020

Many species, subspecies and forms assigned to Ripidiorhynchus SARTENAER 1966 do not belong to it and give it an overextended published stratigraphic range of Givetian to Lower Carboniferous. Eight new genera are proposed: Kedridorhynchus [type species K. cedarensis (STAINBROOK 1942); late Givetian], Poleomesorhynchus [type species P. gregeri (BRANSON 1923); early Frasnian], Hypselororhynchus [type species H. farsani (BRICE 1977); middle-late Frasnian], Porthmorhynchus [type species P. ferquensis (GOSSELET 1887); middle-late Frasnian], Paropamisorhynchus [type species P. kotalensis (BRICE 1971); late Frasnian], Saxulirostrum [type species S. saxatile (HALL 1867); late Frasnian], Piridiorhynchus [type species P. confinium n. sp.; earliest Famennian], Orophomesorhynchus [type species O. huotinus (de VERNEUIL 1845); early Famennian]. Following revision of Ripidiorhynchus a new zone is introduced at the base of the Famennian based on Piridiorhynchus confinium in the southeastern and eastern parts of Dinant Basin. Some attention is also devoted to the alleged overlapping of the Frasnian/ Famennian boundary by Ripidiorhynchus.

Introduction: The weaknesses of Guinea-Bissau’s health system have long been highlighted. The purpose of this study is to contribute with evidence for decision-making on the reform of the country’s healthcare map, by analyzing the availability and readiness of services at the facilities that may become part of a Hospital Complex in Bissau, proposed in the National Health Development Plan.Material and Methods: We analyzed 13 public and private facilities with inpatient capacity, located in Bissau and Biombo. Service Availability and Readiness Assessment (SARA) tools were used for data collection, treatment and analysis.Results: A comprehensive overview of these facilities has been provided, describing their general capacity to provide care and their readiness to implement it, along with the availability and readiness of specific services: diagnosis, family planning, mother and child health, obstetrics, communicable and non communicable diseases, blood transfusion and surgery. We observed a greater concentration of beds and professionals in the facilities of public sector, the only that provides all the specific services analyzed. Private sector services with agreements to supply the public sector have higher readiness levels and the private sector has the lowest operating capacity.Discussion: Findings reflect the lack of equipment, infrastructure and resources, the predominance of the public sector and the growth of the private for-profit and non-profit sectors, as well as inadequacies in planning and regulation. Similarities and differences between our findings and those described in the literature for other African countries are identified.Conclusion: This study reinforces the relevance of developing integrated and rational responses of health services and provides evidence for this.
Intoxicação por Monóxido de Carbono e Cianeto: Uma Associação a Recordar
Authors: Marçal Ana Luísa , Coelho Daniela , Araújo Rui
Published: May 2020

O monóxido de carbono e o cianeto são toxinas que induzem hipóxia celular; ambos podem ser produzidos em contexto de incêndios domésticos e podem exercer um efeito tóxico sinérgico. Apresentamos o caso de um homem, vítima de incêndio doméstico, que foi inicialmente diagnosticado como intoxicação por monóxido de carbono, mas que posteriormente apresentou também sinais e sintomas compatíveis com intoxicação por cianeto, tendo sido tratado com sucesso com antídotos dirigidos. Pretendemos alertar para esta associação de intoxicações relativamente frequente e para a necessidade de tratamento empírico urgente.

Introduction: Allogeneic stem cell transplantation is an established procedure for a variety of diseases of the hematopoietic system. Our transplant program started in 1987 and since then advances have been made in the care of patients undergoing transplantation. We conducted a study to evaluate whether the changes implemented over time have improved the outcomes of transplantation.Material and Methods: We analyzed changes in patients, cell source, transplantation and outcome among 682 consecutive patients receiving their first transplant between 1987 and 2016. We compared overall survival, progression-free survival, the incidence of nonrelapse mortality and relapse in 10-year cohorts over the three decades of the study.Results: The median age of transplanted patients, the use of peripheral blood and unrelated donors all increased very significantly. There was an increase in the number of high-risk patients when comparing the first decade with the two subsequent ones. The 3-year non-relapse mortality decreased significantly from 29% to 20% (p = 0.045), while the overall survival, progression free survival and cumulative incidence of relapse remained stable.Discussion: Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation has evolved considerably since its introduction in clinical practice. In the present study, we evaluated how these changes affected our practice along 30 years of activity and compared the results with those published in the literature.Conclusion: Despite increasing age, higher risk patients and the increasing use of unrelated donors our results show a continuous significantly reduced non-relapse mortality, with stable overall survival, progression free survival and relapse rate.

Equidade na Utilização de Consultas Médicas em Portugal: Na saúde e na Doença, na Riqueza e na Pobreza?
Authors: Quintal Carlota , Antunes Micaela
Published: May 2020

Introdução: A equidade é um objetivo central da política de saúde em Portugal. Contudo, a evidência empírica sobre utilização de cuidados é escassa não existindo resultados atualizados. O nosso objetivo é avaliar o respeito pelo princípio de igual utilização para igual necessidade.Material e Métodos: Usamos dados do Inquérito Nacional de Saúde 2014. A utilização de cuidados é medida pelo número de consultas de medicina geral e familiar ou de especialidades hospitalares. Para avaliar os fatores impactantes na utilização recorremos à análise de regressão multivariada (modelo binomial negativo). Para quantificar a desigualdade/iniquidade relacionada com o rendimento na utilização calcula-se o índice de concentração.Resultados: Ter melhor saúde autoavaliada e não sofrer de limitações nas atividades diárias reduz a utilização; sofrer de doença crónica aumenta o uso. O rendimento não é estatisticamente significativo; a educação aumenta o uso, com efeito pronunciado. Viver em zonas urbanas e em Lisboa (comparado com o Norte) aumenta a utilização. Residir no Algarve ou Madeira, ou beneficiar apenas do Serviço Nacional de Saúde está associado a menos utilização. Pelo índice de concentração, não se exclui a hipótese de equidade nas consultas de medicina geral e familiar. Em relação às consultas de especialidades hospitalares e totais, a evidência sugere iniquidade favorável aos mais ricos.Discussão: A iniquidade observada entre grupos de rendimento parece refletir desigualdades noutras variáveis de não-necessidade. Há a questão dos resultados poderem ser afetados por sobreutilização no caso de consultas de especialidades hospitalares.Conclusão: Portugal progrediu favoravelmente em termos de equidade na utilização de consultas, mas subsistem desafios.

Understanding cadets’s evaluation of taste and wellbeing in one food menu from the Brazilian Air Force Academy through word association
Authors: Pires Manoela , Barreto Marcos Henrique Oliveira
Published: May 2020

A questionnaire was conducted in the field with the cadets of the Brazilian Air Force Academy, and its main objective was to verify their perception of the food provided by the military organization, in order to understand which kinds of food were considered positive and negative foods for wellbeing and their daily physical performance, and how the food supplied affects their routine in any aspect. The research was carried out with 130 participants, through a questionnaire of unstructured qualitative analysis and word association technique. Participants were approached shortly after lunch, inside the mess hall. The results showed that the majority of cadets classified as positive or negative foods in terms of taste and not for their nutritional value. The cadets have also correlated food to physical and mental wellbeing and affirmed that a good meal directly affects their routine.
Cluster: competitividade internacional, inovação
Authors: Tavares Mauro Calixta , Afonso Tarcisio
Published: May 2020

O presente artigo trata da competitividade internacional brasileira, tendo a inovação como dos seus principais vetores e a formação de clusters como uma das alternativas estratégicas para a sua materialização. As teorias desenvolvidas por PORTER em “A vantagem competitiva das nações”, publicado em 1993 e “Cluster e Competição: novas agendas para empresas, governo e instituições” in On competition, publicado 1998 serviram embasar a abordagem do papel dos clusters na competitividade internacional. A descrição do papel da inovação nesse cenário tomou por empréstimo as constatações de SACHS (2.000) e as pesquisas realizadas pelo IBGE. A análise dessas duas situações à luz da competitividade internacional demonstrou que nossas aglomerações industriais não atendem ao chamado conceito de clusters. Em nível macro, o Brasil carece de investimentos mais consistentes e significativos na inovação. Tal deficiência compromete o desenvolvimento de produtos com maior grau de valor agregado e de formação de clusters, que podem assegurar a contínua inserção do País no mercado externo.
La gestión de emprendimientos asociativos. identificación de los factores claves de éxito

Published: May 2020

Com a evolução do mercado de Planos de Saúde Odontológicos no Brasil, foram surgindo algumas tímidas formas de planos de atendimento odontológico que eram quase sempre ‘cartões de desconto’ e não realmente planos com efetivas coberturas como os de hoje.  Mais recentemente surgiram algumas empresas e umas poucas cooperativas oferecendo planos parciais, sempre tendo como alvo a associação a Operadoras de Planos de Saúde Médicos já existentes, tornando-se simplesmente uma extensão ou apêndice das coberturas médicas e hospitalares daqueles planos. Em 1998 o mercado de trabalho na odontologia se apresentava de uma forma conturbada, com a invasão de capital estrangeiro nas empresas de saúde tornando-as empresas multinacionais e mercantilistas.
