Authors: Orrego Bayron
Published: March 2019

Este artículo presenta un ejercicio comparado de experiencias de gobierno indígena en la configuración de formas de democracia comunitaria a partir de prácticas de gobierno en diferentes niveles de lo territorial en Ecuador y México. Se desarrollan algunos elementos de importancia concernientes al poder, la autonomía y lo comunitario y se explora las posibilidades de las formas comunitarias de democracia más allá de las prácticas de gobierno local en una estructura política y de gobierno de carácter nacional. Se finaliza reflexionando sobre los objetivos y los alcances de las reivindicaciones políticas de las organizaciones indígenas y su participación en el sistema electoral de ambos países.
Homenaje

La obra filosófica de Darío Botero Uribe, filósofo colombiano fallecido en el año 2010, surgió a comienzos de la década de los noventa del siglo pasado en el marco del derrumbe del socialismo real y dentro de la correlativa hegemonía del neoliberalismo, aspecto que puso de presente Fukuyama, pero que cuyas consecuencias en el mundo de la vida social, habían sido puestas de presente por varias de las distintas corrientes llamadas posmodernas. Así las cosas, el Vitalismo Cósmico emergió dentro del contexto de la globalización que se hizo más intensa desde mediados del siglo pasado, esto es, dentro de lo que Debord llamó la “aldea global” o la Disneylandia global como lo dijo Saramago.

Authors: Mehta Ina , Gill Kalpana
Published: March 2019

This work is aimed at presenting a mathematical model for determining the optimal order in-extenuating conditions (All Unit Discount, Incremental Discount). The expected results are producing several kinds of multi-supplier and multi-time periods with regards to inventories, demand, suppliers' capacity, storage space, and budget constraints in order. It is desirable to minimize the purchasing costs, storage and ordering while considering the lack of needed materials at specified times. To confirm the efficiency of the proposed model in solving purchase planning problems in real world, it has been applied in Asian Oil Turbo Compressor Design Corporation and received approval from the obtained results and experts’ comments. To solve the designed model, the GAMS software is used. Also, model sensitivity analysis and usable results in management decision making based on the importance of proposed matters (shortage reduction in each period and demand increase effect on final cost) are then presented.
Study on the continuity of farmer`s breeding activity with Patch Faced Maritza sheep breed

Published: March 2019

Abstract. The aim of this study was to analyze tendencies in the population of Patch Faced Maritza sheep breed and estimation of sustainability of the breeding program for this breed by analyzing continuity of farmer`s breeding activity. Patch Faced Maritza sheep breed is a local Bulgarian sheep breed typical for lowland regions of South Bulgaria and could be successfully used as local genetic resource in productive strategies for milk and meat production. Data about breeders and population structure of the breed during 27 years (1991-2017) were provided by the breeding association of Maritza sheep breed. The changes in the population structure during the 2005-2017 were tracking. The number of breeders included in the breeding program was increased from 10 to 88 herds. This positive trend in the population and increased farmer`s interest to participate in the breeding program were due to government programs for supporting sheep farming and preserve many indigenous sheep breeds that are part of agricultural heritage. The increased number of herds included in the breeding program led up to enlarge active population in three main reproductive categories: ewes, rams and breeding lambs. Comparatively small number of ewes, rams and breeding lambs which in 2005 were respectively 375, 13 and 180 run to 7678, 493 and 1868 in 2017. This enlarge of active population was achieved by three ways: joining farmers which kept Patch Faced Maritza sheep but not participating in official breeding program of the breed, increasing the breeding lambs for replacement rate and limited upgrade crossing. On the based breeding activity contracts with farmers it was estimated continuity of breeding activity in two categories of breeders: finished breeding activity with the breed and continuing with active breeding activity with the breed. The causes for discontinuing of active farmers breeding work were analysed. A total number of farmers which finished breeding activity was 54 for 27 years. Averaged continuity of farmer`s breeding activity was 4.26 years. The analysis of this information find out five reasons for discontinuing farmers breeding activity: disinterest, death, old age, switching to another business, and changing the breed. From the listed reasons the most important are switching to another business 23 farmers and disinterest for active breeding work 17 farmers. The most important fact results nowadays is the fact that Patch Faced Maritza sheep is occurred already in 11 regions in Bulgaria, although 74.11% of the population is situated in two regions Plovdiv and Pazardzhik.
Hipnotizőrök archaikus bevonódásának vizsgálata
Authors: Bányai Éva , Józsa Emese , Költő András
Published: March 2019

Háttér és célkitűzések: Az alany hipnotizőrrel kapcsolatos áttételi érzelmi bevonódását az Archaikus Bevonódási Skálával – ABS(A) lehet vizsgálni. A hipnózis interaktív megközelítése azonban szükségessé teszi, hogy a hipnotizőr archaikus bevonódását is mérni lehessen. A jelen kutatásban az erre a célra általunk kialakított huszonkét tételes hipnotizőri Archaikus Bevonódási Skála – ABS(H) – megbízhatóságát, faktorszerkezetét és a bevonódás intenzitását vizsgáltuk.

Módszer: 22 hipnotizőr összesen 387 alannyal elvégzett kísérleti hipnózisa után az alanyok és hipnotizőreik egyaránt kitöltötték az ABS-t. Az alanyokra és hipnotizőrökre vonatkozó adatok leíró statisztikai elemzése mellett feltáró faktoranalízissel vizsgáltuk az ABS(H) kérdőív szerkezetét. Összevetettük a hipnotizőrök és alanyaik archaikus bevonódásának mértékét, illetve az egyes hipnotizőrök közötti különbségeket.

Eredmények: Az ABS(H) három faktorba szerveződik: Kötődés és pozitív kapcsolat, Gondoskodás és törődésigény, Kontrolligény és félelem a negatív megítéléstől. Az ABS(H) ugyanolyan jó megbízhatóságú, mint az ABS(A). Az alanyok és hipnotizőrök archaikus bevonódása között nem vagy csak alacsony hatásméretű különbséget találtunk. Az egyes hipnotizőrök archaikus bevonódása viszont szignifikáns különbségeket mutatott. Következtetések: Az ABS(H) alkalmas arra, hogy laboratóriumi helyzetben megbízhatóan mérje a hipnotizőrök alannyal kapcsolatos viszontáttételi érzelmeit. Eredményeink arra utalnak, hogy az alanyok hasonló erősségű archaikus bevonódást élnek át különböző hipnotizőrökkel, az egyes hipnotizőrök érzelmi viszonyulása azonban jelentősen eltérhet más-más alannyal végzett laboratóriumi hipnózisok során. Ez a megfigyelés fontos adalékokat szolgáltat a hipnoterápiás kapcsolat jobb megértéséhez is.

Published: March 2019

Marine tourism sector in the Northeast Bali, Indonesia, experienced rapid development in the last decades. However, severe coastal erosion in some parts of the area has threaten the industry. Unsuccessful mitigation measures have been carried out by authorities by constructing seawalls along the coastline. The objective of the study is to understand the physical processes related to coastal erosion in the area and to assess the effectiveness of seawall along the coastline. To achieve the objectives, a GIS approach was carried out to investigate general changes of the coastline since 1944 until 2013. Hydrodynamics analyses and sediment transport simulations were also conducted and validated by the data from field measurements. The role of Mount Agung (a volcanic mountain) to the coastal dynamic system was also investigated. Moreover, the data from cGPS measurements in the island were also used for the analysis of possible land subsidence in the area. From social aspects, the history of USAT Liberty Shipwreck in Tulamben Village supports the analyses and provides information on the evolution of coastline in the area. We conclude that coastal erosion in North-east Bali has long been occurred and strongly affected by the dynamics of hydro-oceanography, volcanic activities, geological dynamics, and human interferences. Finally, the mechanism of coastal erosion in the area was also proposed.

Published: March 2019

ABSTRACT Objevect: To evaluate the Nutritional Status (NS) and follow the Enteral Nutritional Therapy (ENT) of patients in neurosurgical intervention. Method: Cohort study in emergency or elective surgery patients with exclusive ENT. Anthropometric measurements (Arm Circumference (AC and Triceps Skinfold (TSF)) were measured on the first, seventh and 14th day. For the ENT monitoring, caloric/protein adequacy, fasting, inadvertent output of the enteral probe and residual gastric volume were used. Results: 80 patients, 78.7% in emergency surgery and 21.3% in elective surgery. There was a reduction in AC and Body Mass Index (BMI) (p>0.01), especially for the emergency group. The caloric/protein adequacy was higher in the emergency group (86.7% and 81.8%). Conclusion: The EN change was greater in the emergency group, even with better ENT adequacy. Changes in body composition are frequent in neurosurgical patients, regardless of the type of procedure.

Published: March 2019

Human leptospirosis is an infection that most often affects tropical countries. Since 2007, Colombia requires the notification of disease cases, enabling the observation of an increase in cases in recent years. The objectives of this article were to analyze environmental and socioeconomic variables and to evaluate their relationship with human leptospirosis cases. This is an ecological study on human leptospirosis cases aggregated by municipality and reported between 2007 and 2016. Spatial aggregation assessment was made using the Getis-Ord Gi method, and negative binomial regression was used to evaluate the relationship between environmental and socioeconomic variables with human leptospirosis. During the study period, 9,928 cases of human leptospirosis were reported, and 58.9% of municipalities reported at least one case. Four hotspots of human leptospirosis, including 18 municipalities, were identified. The results of the negative binomial model confirmed the importance of the effects of education, poverty and some climatic variables on the decadal incidence rate of human leptospirosis. Our results confirm the importance of socioeconomic determinants such as social marginality associated with violence and education, as well as ecological variables such as rainfall, height above sea level and forest coverage on the incidence rate of human leptospirosis at municipal scale.

O objetivo do trabalho foi identificar os pontos de corte dos marcadores inflamatórios que melhor discriminassem a ocorrência da síndrome metabólica entre idosos residentes na comunidade. Foram utilizados os dados da linha de base da coorte de idosos conduzida na cidade de Bambuí, Minas Gerais, Brasil. A exposição de interesse foi a presença da síndrome metabólica, definida pelo critério Adult Treatment Panel III, e os desfechos incluíram os seguintes marcadores inflamatórios: citocinas (IL-1β, IL-6, IL-10, IL-12 e TNF), quimiocinas (CXCL8, CXCL9, CCL2, CXCL10 e CCL5) e proteína C-reativa (PCR). A definição dos pontos de corte dos marcadores inflamatórios foi baseada no método Classification and Regression Tree (CART). As associações entre esses marcadores e a síndrome metabólica foram estimadas por modelos de regressão logística, obtendo-se odds ratio e intervalos de 95% de confiança (IC95%), considerando o ajustamento por fatores de confusão. A prevalência da síndrome metabólica foi de 49,1%, e os níveis de IL-1β, IL-12 e TNF não se mostraram associados a essa exposição. Após ajustamento, a presença da síndrome metabólica foi associada a maiores valores de IL-6 e PCR e a menores valores de CXCL8 e CCL5. Associações significativas ainda foram observadas com níveis séricos intermediários de CXCL9 e CXCL10. Além disso, a combinação dos marcadores apresentou associação significativa e consistente com a síndrome metabólica. Além de demonstrar associação entre síndrome metabólica e uma ampla gama de biomarcadores, alguns ainda não descritos na literatura, os resultados ressaltam que essa associação ocorre em níveis muito inferiores aos já demonstrados, sugerindo que a síndrome metabólica desempenha importante papel no perfil inflamatório dos idosos.
Medicina de precisão/medicina personalizada: análise crítica dos movimentos de transformação da biomedicina no início do século XXI
Authors: Iriart Jorge Alberto Bernstein
Published: March 2019

O grande desenvolvimento da pesquisa em genômica nas últimas décadas tem gerado muitas expectativas com relação ao seu impacto na biomedicina. Observa-se o crescente investimento em pesquisa na medicina personalizada ou de precisão, que busca customizar a prática médica com foco no indivíduo baseando-se na utilização de testes genéticos, identificação de biomarcadores e desenvolvimento de medicações alvo. O movimento da medicina personalizada ou de precisão, no entanto, é polêmico e tem suscitado um importante debate entre seus defensores e críticos. Este ensaio teve por objetivo discutir os pressupostos, promessas, limites e possibilidades da medicina personalizada ou de precisão com base em uma revisão da literatura recente situando o debate sobre o tema. A revisão aponta que muitas das promessas da medicina personalizada ou de precisão ainda não se concretizaram. Se por um lado houve enorme avanço no conhecimento sobre os mecanismos moleculares das patologias e o desenvolvimento de medicamentos que impactaram significativamente o tratamento de alguns tipos de câncer, até o momento não há evidências de que este padrão se reproduzirá em outras doenças complexas. A medicina personalizada ou de precisão deve gerar desenvolvimentos incrementais em áreas específicas da medicina, existindo, no entanto, vários obstáculos para sua generalização. O alto custo das novas biotecnologias pode agravar as desigualdades em saúde, tornando-se um problema para a sustentabilidade dos serviços de saúde, especialmente em países de média e baixa rendas. A ênfase na medicina personalizada ou de precisão pode levar ao deslocamento de recursos financeiros de iniciativas menos custosas e com maior impacto em saúde pública.
Seroepidemiological study of feline coronavirus (FCoV) infection in domiciled cats from Botucatu, São Paulo, Brazil
Authors: Almeida Ariani C.S. , Galdino Maicon V. , Araújo Jr. João P.
Published: March 2019

ABSTRACT: Feline coronavirus (FCoV) is responsible for causing one of the most important infectious diseases of domestic and wild felids, the feline infectious peritonitis (FIP), which is an immune-mediated, systemic, progressive and fatal disease. FCoV is highly contagious, and infection is common in domestic feline populations worldwide. The present study aimed to determine the seropositivity of FCoV infection and its associated epidemiological variables (risk factors) in domiciled cats in Botucatu, São Paulo, Brazil. Whole blood samples (0.5-1mL) were collected from 151 cats, and sera were extracted by centrifugation. These sera were tested by an commercial enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for the detection of IgG anti-FCoV antibodies. The assessed risk factors were age range, breed, gender, reproductive status, outdoor access and rearing mode (living alone or in a group). The seropositivity was 64.2% (97/151). There was no statistical significance for risk factors related to breed, gender or rearing mode. There were significant differences in seropositivity (p-values ≤0.05) for age range (p=0.0157), reproductive status (p=0.0074) and outdoor access (p=0.0001). This study verified a wide dissemination of FCoV in the studied population, with a higher than expected seropositivity for indoor cats. Among the risk factors, age range, reproductive status and outdoor access presented statistically significant differences, thus helping to establish an epidemiological profile of this population.

ABSTRACT: This study reports the epidemiological data and the clinical-pathological condition of five outbreaks of cyanogenic poisoning in cattle spontaneously ingesting star grass (Cynodon nlemfuensis Vanderyst var. nlemfuensis cv. ‘Florico’). In all outbreaks, the areas where the plant was previously fertilized with high concentrations of nitrogen and the properties adopted the silvipastoral system. The first clinical signs appeared between 10 and 15 minutes after the first introduction of cattle and were characterized by muscular tremors, dyspnea, moderate tympanism, staggering gait, forced breathing with open mouth, sternal recumbency followed by death after 15 to 30 minutes and/or recovery in a few hours after the signs started. In total, 43 cows have become ill and 18 died. Two necropsies were performed and no significant changes were found except for the presence of the plant near the esophageal sphincter region. No histological lesions were seen through microscopy. Green leaves of the star grass were collected from all properties where the outbreaks occurred and the test of the picro-sodium paper was performed, revealing red-brick coloration in 20 minutes after maceration of the leaves.
ANTECEDENTS OF WORK ENGAGEMENT OF HIGHER EDUCATION PROFESSORS IN BRAZIL
Authors: MERCALI GABRIELE D. , COSTA SILVIA G.
Published: March 2019

ABSTRACT Purpose: This research aimed to identify and analyze the antecedents of work engagement through job demands and resources of the higher education professors in Brazil. Originality/value: First findings of engagement, job resources and demands regarding Brazilian professors sample. This dissertation contributes to the reflection of their situation and the conditions of their jobs. Design/methodology/approach: This study used a quantitative approach by means of applying an online questionnaire composed of identification questions and two scales. The sample comprised 506 professors belonging to all federative units of the country. Data collected from the questionnaire was analyzed through descriptive statistics, analysis of variance and t-test. Findings: The main findings show that professors, in general, have medium levels of engagement, but it is very close to the limit that can affect their health. The qualitative demands are the most expressive in the working life of these professionals and the work resources (task execution) were those that obtained the highest average among all resources, followed by the social ones. In general, professors from private institutions perceive job demands and resources more favorably than those who work in public institutions.
WORK CENTRALITY, GOALS AND PROFESSIONAL FULFILLMENT: INTERSECTIONS BETWEEN WORK AND CAREER
Authors: MOURA ALÉXIA O. R. , SILVA LÍGIA C. O.
Published: March 2019

ABSTRACT Purpose: This study aimed to analyze the degree to which the meaning of work, specifically the work centrality dimension, and the types of achievement goal orientations at work, predict professional fulfillment. Originality/value: The main contribution is to provide background for the identification of antecedents of a concept yet narrowly studied, which is professional fulfillment, signaling how counselors and organizations may facilitate the greater achievement of what is most valued in a career. We evidence the need to consider work an important sphere of life and to invest efforts in self-development to attain professional fulfillment. Design/methodology/approach: This is quantitative, survey-type research involving 140 people who have been working for at least 6 months. An online questionnaire was answered containing absolute and relative work centrality, achievement goal orientation at work and professional fulfillment scales, as well as socio-demographic questions. Data were analyzed using bivariate correlations and multiple regression analysis. Findings: Significant relationships of prediction were found between work centrality and professional fulfillment, as well as between one of the types of goal orientation and professional fulfillment. The results support two of the three predicted hypotheses, in addition to converging with previous research on the positive impacts of work centrality and the mastery approach orientation.
NARRATIVES OF STAKEHOLDERS UNDER THE PERSPECTIVE OF THE STRATEGY AS SOCIAL PRACTICE
Authors: NETO JOSÉ B. S. , BORGES JACQUELAINE F.
Published: March 2019

ABSTRACT Purpose: The paper is driven by the following question: how do interest group narratives contribute to the dialogue between the perspective of strategy as a practice and the stakeholder theory? The objective is to analyze the changes, permanent and tensions in the narratives of the stakeholders, seen the strategic practices, in the context of mining. Originality/value: Strategy as a social practice concerns the relationships between organizations, individuals and society in search of coexistence. This study establishes a dialogue between strategy as a social practice and the political perspective of the stakeholders, considering that they interact in networks, seeking the creation of value from mutuality. Design/methodology/approach: Field research was conducted in a qualitative and longitudinal approach. Data collection used to document research techniques in notes and videos of public hearings, newspaper research and interviews. Findings: The results show narrative interactions of six interest groups: entrepreneurial organizations, public authority, education, environment, residents of the area of implantation and the productive sector. The result suggests a relevant role of relational tensions as elements that restrict and enable changes and permanent and indicate the dynamic nature of intra and intergroup interactions of stakeholders. The proposed theoretical dialogue extends the field of strategic studies, in a postmodern dimension, by establishing a dialogue with the political side of stakeholder action as an alternative to the traditional functionalist perspective in the field.

Published: March 2019

ABSTRACT Objective: To compare the effects that prone and supine positioning during high-frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV) have on oxygenation and lung inflammation, histological injury, and oxidative stress in a rabbit model of acute lung injury (ALI). Methods: Thirty male Norfolk white rabbits were induced to ALI by tracheal saline lavage (30 mL/kg, 38°C). The injury was induced during conventional mechanical ventilation, and ALI was considered confirmed when a PaO2/FiO2 ratio < 100 mmHg was reached. Rabbits were randomly divided into two groups: HFOV in the supine position (SP group, n = 15); and HFOV with prone positioning (PP group, n = 15). For HFOV, the mean airway pressure was initially set at 16 cmH2O. At 30, 60, and 90 min after the start of the HFOV protocol, the mean airway pressure was reduced to 14, 12, and 10 cmH2O, respectively. At 120 min, the animals were returned to or remained in the supine position for an extra 30 min. We evaluated oxygenation indices and histological lung injury scores, as well as TNF-α levels in BAL fluid and lung tissue. Results: After ALI induction, all of the animals showed significant hypoxemia, decreased respiratory system compliance, decreased oxygenation, and increased mean airway pressure in comparison with the baseline values. There were no statistically significant differences between the two groups, at any of the time points evaluated, in terms of the PaO2 or oxygenation index. However, TNF-α levels in BAL fluid were significantly lower in the PP group than in the SP group, as were histological lung injury scores. Conclusions: Prone positioning appears to attenuate inflammatory and histological lung injury during HFOV in rabbits with ALI.

Published: March 2019

Resumo No presente trabalho apresentamos a continuação do recente artigo “Grandezas Físicas Unidimensionais”, publicado na Revista Brasileira de Ensino de Física. A construção operacional de uma grandeza passa pela definição de seu domínio, separação do domínio em classes e, por fim, associação injetiva de um espaço de valores às classes. Essa formulação é aqui delineada para abarcar grandezas multidimensionais, incluindo vetores, vetores duais e tensores. Adotar um viés operacional, nesse caso, permite ressignificar assuntos aparentemente tautológicos da matemática, como geometria e topologia, a partir de sua conexão com o mundo físico.
DETERMINANTES DO REPASSE CAMBIAL: UMA RESENHA COM FOCO NO CASO BRASILEIRO
Authors: Assis Thallis Macedo de , Fonseca Luiz Fernando Cerqueira , Feijó Carmem Aparecida do Valle Costa
Published: March 2019

RESUMO A taxa de câmbio constitui um dos principais preços da economia. Suas flutuações têm importantes impactos sobre os preços domésticos, portanto, sobre a condução e credibilidade da política monetária. Este artigo apresenta uma ampla resenha da literatura sobre o repasse cambial, e nesse sentido contribui para organizar o debate sobre o tema, que é de especial interesse para se entender o processo inflacionário brasileiro. Um aspecto a ser destacado é que identificamos que o repasse cambial pode variar entre grupos de países devido à existência de uma hierarquia do sistema monetário internacional, fato que não é tratado explicitamente na literatura sobre repasse cambial. O artigo inclui também trabalhos empíricos sobre repasse cambial no Brasil. Conclui que os determinantes macro e microeconômicos do repasse cambial fazem parte de um todo que precisa ser entendido no nível das firmas para melhor explicar o comportamento agregado dos preços.
Les figures du décorateur français au XXe siècle, une histoire de mots et de pratiques
Authors: GRONDIN BEATRICE
Published: March 2019

RESUMÉ L'évolution sémantique du mot décorateur révèle les processus identitaires en jeu dans la construction des figures d'artistes. A l’orée du XXe siècle en France, les nouvelles valeurs de ce vocable trouvent leur origine dans l'affirmation du statut d'artiste créateur et dans la consécration de la synthèse des arts. Une figure idéale d'artiste décorateur se dessine sans pour autant renvoyer à une catégorie professionnelle stable. En effet, la réception critique ne fait pas consensus autour des compétences, entre savoir et savoir-faire, collaboration indépendante et maîtrise d'oeuvre, vision esthétique et dessin technique, conception sur mesure et en série. De l'ensemblier à l'architecte d'intérieur, le terme décorateur ne parvient à aucune définition sociale et professionnelle propre. La conception de la décoration de style français moderne et la nécessité de répondre aux besoins réels de la société divisent les créateurs. Les principes rationalistes de l'aménagement, défendus par l' Union des artistes modernes (UMA) en 1929, mettent définitivement en crise l'identité du décorateur ornementaliste. La dépréciation sémantique qui se poursuit pendant les Trente Glorieuses aboutit à des revendications professionnelles autour de "l'architecte spécialisé". Des groupements et syndicats comme l'Union des Créateurs d'ensembles et de modèles (UADCE) et le Syndicat des créateurs d'architectures intérieures (CAIM) témoignent des nouvelles stratégies identitaires au profit de l'architecte d'intérieur, créateur de modèles ou plus tardivement designer. La spécialisation et l'élargissement de compétences du décorateur au cours de cette période révèlent des porosités et des différenciations professionnelles toujours difficiles à légitimer.

Published: March 2019

RESUMO Este artigo parte da exposição “Achados da Leopoldina: arqueologia urbana na era digital”, sediada em 2017 no Museu Histórico Nacional, para analisar o lugar e o tempo da musealização e da exposição do objeto arqueológico oriundo do sítio Matadouro Público de São Cristóvão, no Rio de Janeiro. Para tanto, à luz da legislação específica do campo do patrimônio arqueológico e de suas contingências, reflete-se sobre o uso da virtualidade como recurso expográfico em um caso no qual a pesquisa arqueológica desembocou em uma solução de exposição centrada na linguagem virtual com fins de divulgação da coleção, deixando a cargo do acervo do Museu Histórico Nacional encarnar vicariamente a materialidade dos artefatos arqueológicos do antigo matadouro público da cidade do Rio de Janeiro.
Os passeios da Rua Barão de Iguape: disputas na implementação dos equipamentos viários em São Paulo no fim do século XIX
Authors: BORIN MONIQUE FÉLIX
Published: March 2019

RESUMO Este artigo explora a relação entre o poder público e a população de São Paulo na implementação dos equipamentos viários no período entre 1886 e 1905, analisando seu impacto sobre o fazer urbano da cidade. A partir do estudo de caso de intimações para que moradores da rua Barão de Iguape, localizada no bairro central da Liberdade, construíssem os passeios em frente a suas edificações no ano de 1904, discutimos como eram entendidas as responsabilidades sobre a organização urbana naquele momento histórico. Para isso, abordaremos os conflitos e negociações, expressos na documentação das Obras particulares do acervo do Arquivo Histórico de São Paulo. A opção de trabalhar com um elemento de infraestrutura em geral negligenciado, tido como menor em comparação aos outros melhoramentos em implementação - característica que também se expressa na documentação - base da reflexão -, visa justamente apreender a relação entre esses atores no nível do cotidiano. Somos confrontados com um tipo de relação entre esses agentes bastante recorrente na cidade desde o período colonial: um compartilhamento da ação do poder público e dos moradores para a feitura da cidade. O calçamento das ruas da cidade e a construção de seus passeios é um dos exemplos de como essa relação se materializava na paisagem urbana, complexificando as dimensões das disputas políticas envolvidas na urbanização paulistana no fim do século XIX.

RESUMO: Objetivando analisar o contexto de um Curso de Férias (CF), cuja metodologia é uma adaptação da Aprendizagem Baseada em Problemas (ABP), buscamos a partir de Perelman (1987) identificar técnicas argumentativas e características deste curso que possam favorecer sua construção. Para isso, nos embasamos em Perelman com o Tratado da Argumentação (TA) e nas pesquisas que analisam o CF na perspectiva da ABP. Os dados foram analisados de videogravações transcritas de seis licenciandos durante a socialização das atividades no CF. Os resultados evidenciam que as técnicas argumentativas descritas no TA podem ser identificadas no CF quando este apresenta características compatíveis com as noções de auditório, orador e com os âmbitos da argumentação propostas por Perelman. E que o frequente uso da técnica argumentativa de vínculo causal está associada às necessidades que os licenciandos têm em explicar e justificar os experimentos e as conclusões alcançadas ao longo das atividades do curso.

ESAÚ E JACOB E MEMORIAL DE AYRES: MANUSCRITOS QUE VIAJAM
Authors: SILVA ANA CLÁUDIA SURIANI DA
Published: March 2019

Resumo Este artigo examina os manuscritos dos romances Esaú e Jacob (1904) e Memorial de Ayres (1908) de Machado de Assis. Os dois dossiês genéticos são compostos, respectivamente, por 834 e 484 fólios e encontram-se na Academia Brasileira de Letras, no Rio de Janeiro. Com base na tipologia de documentação genética estabelecida por De Biasi (1996), estabeleço o tipo de documento genético que eles constituem. Os dois dossiês genéticos desafiam a tradicional extrapolação das trajetórias textuais representada por um dossiê genético particular, ou seja, uma cadeia cronológica de documentos que vai de planos iniciais de trabalho ao texto concreto. Partindo de dados obtidos a partir da análise codicológica dos dois documentos, dos contratos e da correspondência passiva e ativa do autor, mostrarei que: 1) a produção de uma "cópia passada a limpo" para a composição da primeira edição dos romances serviu para o escritor como uma ferramenta de retextualização, levando-o de volta à fase da composição, o que gerou diversas transformações escriturais e materiais nos fólios; e 2) que os dois documentos serviram como base para a composição tipográfica da primeira edição dos respectivos romances. Vários estágios, fases, funções operacionais e tipos de fólios estão presentes em cada documento. Eles testemunham o trabalho de preparação e retextualização do manuscrito bon à tirer e o processo de produção das primeiras edições, que começa oficialmente quando o editor adquire as obras por contrato e envia os manuscritos para Paris.

Abstract Helminth parasites are still not a well-known component of animal biodiversity. In this study, we describe and compare the endoparasite assemblages of three native rodent species from a semiarid Mediterranean ecosystem. A total of eight species of gastrointestinal helminth parasites were detected. The endoparasitic communities of the rodents Phyllotis darwini (5 species), Octodon degus (4 species), and Abrothrix olivaceus (3 species) were described in terms of their prevalence and mean abundance. In addition, endoparasite records by rodent species were submitted to rarefaction analyses to verify sampling robustness and used to compare richness and similarity among rodent species. O. degus presented the highest prevalence and parasitic load, but was of low diversity, while P. darwini presented the highest diversity, but had a low prevalence rate. Conversely, A. olivaceus presented the lowest prevalence and diversity. This study contributes to the existing knowledge of the endoparasitic fauna of rodent species from semiarid Mediterranean zones.
Effect of fill properties on load−settlement behaviour of granular columns in marine clays

Published: March 2019

This paper describes an experimental investigation carried out to study the load−settlement behaviour and bulge characteristics of granular columns in a soft marine clay bed. The effects of gradation and compacted density of the granular fill material on the load response, bulge length and bulge diameter of granular columns are presented. Granular columns were formed using five kinds of crushed stone aggregates of different gradation, compacted in loose and dense states. The ultimate capacity of the composite ground, bulge diameter and bulge length were more in the case of the densely compacted granular columns than for the loosely compacted granular columns. The relative density and the angle of internal friction of the granular fills, in both loose and dense states, increased with decreasing particle size of the aggregates. Consequently, the load-carrying capacity also increased with decreasing particle size of the aggregates. The percentage increase in the ultimate capacity ranged from 106 to 210% when different aggregates were compacted in their loose and dense states. For a given gradation, the ultimate capacity increased up to an l/d ratio of 11 and decreased thereafter.
Mapping Thamesmead's invisible economies: an ethnographic approach to self-employment

Published: March 2019

This research explores employment trends within Thamesmead, a historically low-income community located at the periphery of London. In an attempt to understand employment and local economic opportunity, the research found a significant number of self-employed residents and ‘invisible’ businesses, which do not have storefronts or designated office space but function from within a home, computer or travel between spaces. Still, these businesses play a major role in supporting the local community and in the area's potential economic growth. Through mapping, census data analysis and semi-structured interviews with local ‘invisible’-business owners, the research focused on understanding these businesses and reveals and explores three key characteristics of the interactions with the urban landscape of Thamesmead. First, census data reveal a shift in the area's demographics over the past two decades. These shifts include the largest account of African immigration, rising levels of education and a growing number of self-employed residents and small businesses. Second, the research showed a disconnect between infrastructure and the community it is meant to serve. Local business owners lack knowledge, awareness and accessibility to existing supportive local institutions and social infrastructure. Third, the paper examines the above-stated characteristics in the context of the urban form.
New Financial Stability Governance Structures and Central Banks
Authors: Edge Rochelle M. , Liang J. Nellie
Published: March 2019

We evaluate the institutional frameworks developed to implement time-varying macroprudential policies in 58 countries. We focus on new financial stability committees (FSCs) that have grown dramatically in number since the global financial crisis, and their interaction with central banks, and infer countries’ revealed preferences for effectiveness versus political economy considerations. Using cluster analysis, we find that only one-quarter of FSCs have both good processes and good tools to implement macroprudential actions, and that instead most FSCs have been designed to improve communication and coordination among existing regulators. We also find that central banks are not especially able to take macroprudential actions when FSCs are not set up to do so. We conclude that about one-half of the countries do not have structures to take or direct actions and avoid risks of policy inertia. Rather countries’ decisions appear to be consistent with strengthening the political legitimacy of macroprudential policies with prominent roles for the ministry of finance and avoiding placing additional powers in central banks that already are strong in microprudential supervision and have high political independence for monetary policy. The evidence suggests that countries are placing a relatively low weight on the ability of policy institutions to take action and a high weight on political economy considerations in developing their financial stability governance structures.
CLOSING GENDER GAP IN EDUCATION OR ELIMINATION OF MALE DOMINATION? OCCUPATIONAL GENDER SEGREGATION IN NORTH CYPRUS
Authors: BETON KALMAZ Demet , GÜVEN LİSANİLER Fatma
Published: March 2019

This
study examines if the low rate of labour force participation of women is the
result of demand constraint which creates gender based occupational segregation
in north Cyprus labour market between years 2004-2014. Standardized D-index is
used to calculate the level of segregation and to decompose and identify the
effect of the changes in the occupational structure of the labour force and the
effect of the changes in the gender composition within the occupations on
segregation index by employing the data collected from (ISCO-88 one-digit)
Household Labour Force Surveys (HLFS) (2004-2014) for nine broad occupational
categories.  The purpose is to expand the
body of research on the extent, trends and sources of occupational gender
segregation in the north Cyprus. The results indicate that over the investigated
period occupational gender segregation is salient and persistent. It is found
that the main source of the changes in segregation index is the shifts in
gender composition within occupations. For the investigation of the source of
the segregation index the explanations of human capital and feminist theories
and the ongoing processes, in particular economic and social, that might have
influences on gender segregation are employed.       As
a result it is confirmed that demand constraint in north Cyprus leads to low
labour force participation of women through gender based occupational
segregation.
TÜRKİYE'DE SİYASİ KURUMLARA GÜVEN: KÜLTÜREL VE KURUMSAL AÇIKLAMALAR İLE "KAZANAN TAKIM" ETKİSİNİN ROLÜ

Siyasi kurumlara güven, demokratik toplumlarda hem mevcut
siyasal sistemin halk arasında uyandırmış olduğu genel tatmin düzeyinin bir
göstergesi olarak görülebilir hem de sistemin meşruiyeti ve iyi işlemesi için temel
koşullardan biridir. Bu nedenle, siyasi kurumlara güvenin düzeyini ve
belirleyicilerini anlamak, sosyal bilimcilerin karşısına önemli bir soru olarak
çıkmaktadır. Bu çalışmada, Türkiye’deki seçmen yaşındaki nüfusu temsil etme
niteliğine sahip bir örneklem ile 2015 yılının sonlarında gerçekleştirilen
özgün bir saha araştırmasının verileri kullanılarak parlamento ve hükümete
güvenin bireysel düzeydeki belirleyicilerini incelemekteyiz. Bulgularımıza göre
bireylerin genel olarak hayatlarından ve ekonomik durumlarından memnuniyetleri,
kişilerarası güven düzeyleri, ve siyasal etkinlik algıları ile siyasal güven
arasında olumlu bir ilişki bulunmaktadır. Ayrıca iktidardaki AK Parti’nin
seçmenlerinin siyasal kurumlara olan güveni diğer vatandaşlara göre daha yüksektir.
Buna karşın, etnik ve dini azınlıklara mensup kişiler ile kentsel alanlarda
yaşayanlar görece olarak daha düşük siyasal güven duygusuna sahip
görünmektedir. Eğitim düzeyi ile siyasal güven arasında da negatif bir ilişki
tespit edilmiştir.
