Authors: Amar Andi L. , Congdon Robert A. , Gardiner Christopher P. , Coventry Ross J.
Published: March 2018

Soil fertility can influence seed production and seedling growth. This study compared seed yields, seed and seedling characteristics of eight forage legumes (Stylosanthesscabra, S. hamata, Centrosemabrasilianum, C. pascuorum, Desmanthuspubescens, D. Virgatus, Macroptiliumbracteatum and M. martii) grown on two soil types (red and yellow kandosols), of low fertility, that are widespread in the Australian tropical rangelands. Seeds of the Desmanthus species germinated most rapidly and, with M. bracteatum, produced the highest proportion of readily germinable seed. M. bracteatum seed produced on the Yellow Kandosol germinated significantly faster, as did the S. hamata from the   Red Kandosol than the other species. S. scabra cv. Seca and C. brasilianum produced   more readily germinable seeds from plants grown on the Red Kandosol. C. pascuorum,     D. pubescens and M. bracteatum produced a higher  percentage of readily germinable seeds and fewer hard seeds when grown on the Yellow Kandosol. No significant differences were found in seedling vigour or biomass allocation from seeds produced on the different soil types

Authors: Rauf Rustam Abd. , Daryanto Arief , Priyarsono D.S.
Published: March 2018

Central Sulawesi is a province in Indonesia with abundant natural resources particularly in agricultural sector. This condition suggests that the agricultural sector plays a very significant role in Central Sulawesi economy. One of the causal factors leading to the disparity of income distribution and poverty is investment allocation with its inconsistency occurs in sectoral development planningThe Gini Ratio of Central Sulawesi Province was 0.4844 in 2008 reflecting moderate level of income disparity for the income distribution among household groups. Simulation of increasing investment on agricultural and other sectors for 10% can generally decrease poverty at all groups of households both in rural and urban area.  Simulation 2 (investment in plantation subsector) led to highest poverty decline as comparison to other simulation.

Published: March 2018

Facial asymmetry can be caused by unilateral condylar hyperplasia. In such cases, it may be difficult to achieve symmetry since there is dentoalveolar compensation on the affected side, and the occlusal cant does not correspond to the frontal mandibular deviation. In the case presented, surgical orthodontic treatment and orthognathic surgery planning was accomplished for a patient with facial asymmetry due to condylar hyperplasia. The surgical plan was devised with particular attention to the severe dentoalveolar compensation. In this case, prior to the two-jaw surgery, the occlusal cant and frontal mandibular plane inclination was corrected through impaction of the left molar region by segmental osteotomy. Facial asymmetry and severe dentoalveolar compensation were successfully corrected after a unilateral segmental osteotomy and two-jaw surgery, resulting in a stable occlusal relationship and facial symmetry as well as good jaw function. Collaboration between the orthodontists and maxillofacial surgeons was essential for the successful treatment of the patient.

Published: March 2018

Objectives:

To evaluate the esthetics and frictional force of an orthodontic wire passed through a newly designed tube made of a polyether ether ketone (PEEK) resin.

Materials and Methods:

Two types of standard PEEK tubes were prepared at 0.5 × 0.6ф and 0.8 × 0.9ф, and different archwires were passed through the tubes. Color values were determined according to brightness and hues. Friction was assessed with different bracket-wire combinations, and surface roughness was determined by stereomicroscopy before and after the application of friction.

Results:

The PEEK tube showed a color difference that was almost identical to that of coated wires conventionally used in clinical practice, indicating a sufficient esthetic property. The result of the friction test showed that the frictional force was greatly reduced by passing the archwire through the PEEK tube in almost all of the archwires tested.

Conclusions:

Use of the new PEEK tube demonstrated a good combination of esthetic and functional properties for use in orthodontic appliances.
“Mi casa es esta pieza”: migración femenina y precariedad habitacional en la Ciudad de Buenos Aires
Authors: Marcús Juliana
Published: March 2018

El objetivo de este artí­culo es analizar, por un lado, el escenario migratorio de nueve mujeres y sus familias tomando en consideración las motivaciones de la migración y el proceso de desplazamiento desde sus lugares de origen hacia la Ciudad de Buenos Aires y, por otro lado, el proceso de integración en la sociedad receptora desde su residencia en hoteles-pensión de la ciudad capital. Esta modalidad del hábitat popular urbano, junto con los conventillos, inquilinatos, villas miseria, asentamientos y casas tomadas pone de relieve la precariedad habitacional de la ciudad. Se realizaron entrevistas en profundidad y observaciones participantes en los hoteles-pensión.Uno de los resultados obtenidos es que la ausencia de propuestas integradoras de polí­tica habitacional dirigidas a los sectores populares, sobre todo migrantes internos y de paí­ses limí­trofes, incide en la falta de acceso a la vivienda digna. En este sentido, el Estado se desentiende en cuanto a polí­ticas habitacionales destinadas a la integración. Las mujeres migrantes entrevistadas han sido seducidas y atraí­das por los beneficios que otorga la gran ciudad y simultáneamente abandonadas por el Estado, pues los mecanismos de recepción y albergue son sumamente escasos. No sólo se les niega el derecho a la ciudad sino también se las despoja del derecho a una vivienda digna y se las “condena” a vivir en viviendas precarias o en los márgenes de la ciudad.
¿Más allá de “subcultura”? Apuntes sobre el fanatismo por la animación japonesa desde los planteos de Dick Hebdige
Authors: Álvarez Gandolfi Federico Manuel
Published: March 2018

El presente texto se propone problematizar la aplicación del concepto de subcultura en el análisis de las dinámicas de construcción identitaria y producción simbólica que tienen lugar a partir del consumo fan de series animadas japonesas –anime– por parte de jóvenes habitantes de Buenos Aires. Dicho objetivo responde a que se considera que el abordaje de los grupos o colectivos de fanáticos en general, y de los otakus en particular –fans de los objetos de la cultura de masas proveniente de Japón–, en términos de subculturas, tiende a prescribirles cierta orientación de “resistencia”, influida por los estudios culturales británicos y la obra de Hebdige. A su vez, se entiende que en el campo académico de estudios sobre estos fans, aún en ví­as de constitución, suele predominar la utilización de dicha noción sin desarrollar una problematización teórico-conceptual al respecto. Las reflexiones que aquí­ se plantean, entonces, parten de una investigación propia sobre las identidades culturales que construyen y los sentidos que producen los otakus sobre sus prácticas de consumo, la cual asume una perspectiva comunicacional y socioantropológica, e implica la aplicación de técnicas de observación participante y entrevistas abiertas, tanto cara a cara como ví­a plataformas digitales, para reconstruir su propio punto de vista.
Competitiveness as the Ability to Adjust: the EU–10 Exports Structure and Its Convergence to the German Pattern
Authors: Czarny Elżbieta , Żmuda Małgorzata
Published: March 2018

Competitiveness of a nation is associated with a set of characteristics that enable structural adjustment to global technological trends, and as a consequence, a rise in the living standard of its citizens. For catching-up economies, GDP convergence towards the most developed economies, constituting their developmental goal, relies upon its ability to shift production and exports structure towards specialization based on knowledge and innovation. Thus, in this paper, competitiveness is evaluated through structural adjustments of exports, and for catching-up economies (the EU–10 states) it may be understood as the ability to close the structural gap to the most developed countries (here: the strongest EU member economy: Germany). We analyse the evolution of the EU–10 nations’ exports specialization in the years 2000 and 2014, checking whether the convergence towards the German exports pattern can be observed, and which of the analysed economies shows the best ability to shift its exports structure towards high-tech specialization. We look additionally at exports structures in 2004 (the year of EU-accession of eight out of 10 countries in the sample) and in 2009 (world trade collapse during the economic crisis). The analysis is based on the Revealed Comparative Advantage (RCA) concept by Balassa (1965). We use the UN Trade Statistics data in the Standard International Trade Classification (SITC), Rev. 4. Commodity groups are classified following the methodology developed by Wysokińska (1997, p. 18).
Alternaria alternata – the main causal agent of disease symptoms in juniper, rose, yew and highbush blueberry in nurseries in southern Poland
Authors: Nadziakiewicz Małgorzata , Kurzawińska Halina , Mazur Stanisław , Tekielska Dorota
Published: March 2018

Symptoms of discoloration and necrosis of the leaves/needles and shoots of plants are an increasingly common phenomenon in nurseries. They necessitate the withdrawal of the affected plants from sale, which has significant economic consequences. In 2010-2011, observations were conducted of the health of shrubs in nurseries of the Małopolska province. Disease symptoms were mostly found in juniper (Juniperus horizontalis ‘Wiltonii’), rose (ground-cover rose ‘Star Profusion’), yew (Taxus × media ‘Hillii’) and highbush blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum ‘Patriot’). These species were selected for further study. The affected shrubs represented more than 46% of the population of a given species. Fragments of the diseased organs: the leaves or needles, the base of the shoots, and the roots, were collected from the borderline between healthy and diseased tissue, and used to isolate and identify the microorganisms colonizing the diseased parts. The affected organs were found to be inhabited to the largest extent by the fungus Alternaria alternata (Fr.) Keissl., which accounted for 19.7 to 47.5% of the isolates from the tested species of shrubs. There were also large populations of fungi of the genera: Botrytis (up to 9.82%), Cladosporium (up to 5.66%), Colletotrichum (up to 5.13%), Fusarium (up to 18.38%), Mortierella (up to 7.26%), Pestalotia (up to 5.36%), Rhizoctonia (up to 5.36%), Sclerotinia (up to 6.99%), and Trichoderma (up to 17.09%). The fungus A. alternata, being by far the dominant pathogen, was tested for its pathogenicity for the shoots of the chosen species of shrubs. The test was conducted for 14 days in a chamber with parameters so programmed that they reflected the natural conditions at the height of the growing season. The fungus A. alternata exhibited pathogenicity for all of the tested species of shrubs. Necrosis developed on all the inoculated fragments of shoots. The surface area of necrotic lesions was larger on the shoots of juniper and blueberry.
Mediating role of meaningful work between resources and work engagement in Bangladesh’s private banks
Authors: Nawrin Rubaba
Published: March 2018

Engaged employees are considered as the most desired assets for the organization. Although significant contributions have been observed in the engagement literature, a holistic approach is yet to be untouched in terms of developing relationship between various resources, work engagement and psychological mechanism such as meaningful work. The purpose of this study is to explore the mediating role of meaningful work between resources and work engagement in private banks in Bangladesh. This study followed the quantitative methodological approach and based on Bakker and Demerouti’s (2007) Job demand-resources model. A survey questionnaire was prepared and used to collect data. 440 respondents participated in this study, who is currently working in private banks in Bangladesh. Multiple regression analysis along with Sobel test was performed to analyze the data. The findings confirmed that the relationships between organizational, job, personal resources and work engagement were partially mediated through meaningful work. It has been observed that all determinates had a significant influence on work engagement. For practical implications, the organization can align various resources to uplift the engagement level of the employees. Since meaningful work was found to be a significant predictor, managers can develop jobs where employees can relate their purpose to their work. This study recommends that future research can apply this model to different contexts as well as to different groups of respondents.

Published: March 2018

Intertwined with other structural changes, are policies to increase the number of international students to diversify tourism activities into what is known as educational tourism (edutourism). Of immediate relevance to this article is the implementation of policies and strategies to attract students from all over the world. Unfortunately, these policies are partially implemented opting out important factors, as such this article attempt to conceptualize the motivational factors associated with edu-tourism. Data garnered from foreign students in North Cyprus suggest that cost, quality, environmental, regulatory, cultural, political, safety and social factors are key factors for edu-tourism. The outcome in this study will help policy makers determine the factors that influence the choice of tertiary institutions in North Cyprus associated with a particular geodemographic setup. This will also enable policy makers to create a tailor made persuasive strategies, policies, adverts and messages to increase their market share.

Published: March 2018

Background. It is now suggested an association between non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and the occurrence of coronary artery disease even in non-diabetic patients. We will determine the rate of NAFLD and its main determinants in non-diabetic patients undergoing coronary angiography.

Methods. This cross-sectional study was accomplished on 264 patients who were candidates for coronary angiography during the year 2016. Coronary angiography has been done to depict the presence or absence of coronary involvement, and the severity of coronary artery disease by determining the number of vessels involved and also the SYNTAX score. During 48 hours after coronary angiography, the patients underwent abdominal ultrasonography for detection of NAFLD.

Results. The overall prevalence of NAFLD in the patients was 72.3%. The prevalence of NAFLD in those with and without coronary involvement was 71.9% and 73.1% respectively, with no notable difference (p = 0.837). The mean SYNTAX score in the patients with and without NAFLD was 22.32 ± 11.10 and 21.75 ± 10.71 respectively with no difference (p = 0.702). According to the multivariable regression models, the presence of NAFLD could not predict the likelihood of coronary artery disease (OR = 0.879, p = 0.669) or its severity assessed by the SYNTAX score (beta = 0.046, p = 0.456). NAFLD grade was also not a determinant for coronary artery disease (OR = 1.139, p = 0.178) or its severity (beta = 0.058, p = 0.165).

Conclusion. It seems that the presence and grade of NAFLD may not be correlated with atherosclerotic involvement of coronary arteries and its severity in non-diabetic patients. Future large studies and trials could elucidate the independent role of fatty liver in nondiabetic non-alcoholic patients.
ANÁLISE COMPARATIVA DE RESISTÊNCIA À COMPRESSÃO ENTRE ARGAMASSAS DE REVESTIMENTO À BASE DE CAL HIDRATADA E ADITIVO PLASTIFICANTE LÍQUIDO

Published: March 2018

O presente trabalho visa à análise de resistência é compressão entre dois tipos de argamassas para revestimento. Foi determinado um traço padrão para argamassa de revestimento, diferenciando-se apenas pela presença da cal hidratada e do aditivo plastificante lí­quido. A primeira mistura de argamassa, denominada Traço I, foi composta de cimento, areia fina e cal hidratada, e a segunda mistura, denominada Traço II, foi composta de cimento, areia fina e aditivo plastificante líquido, conforme orientação do fabricante. As propriedades mecânicas da argamassa foram analisadas através de ensaios determinando a resistência à compressão após 14 dias. Os resultados dos ensaios mostraram que as argamassas produzidas com os dois traços foram semelhantes entre si, demonstrando uma pequena variação de valores, onde o Traço I apresentou uma capacidade de suporte ligeiramente maior que o Traço II. O posicionamento que esta pesquisa propõe é de que a capacidade de resistência à compressão em argamassas de revestimento, deve ser amplamente considerada, pois a influência de ações externas pode comprometer o seu desempenho, minimizando assim sua atuação de promover acabamento estético e proteção. Admitindo a significância desta propriedade, entende-se então que quanto maior a resistência apresentada pelo revestimento, melhor este pode desempenhar sua finalidade.

Assessment of Salt Water Upconing to above Groundwater Abstraction Facilities
Authors: Hoang Nguyen Van , Hung Vu Dinh , Cong Nguyen Thanh
Published: March 2018

Abstract: A methodology for identifying salt water upconing to groundwater abstraction wells has been based on Dagan and Bear method for an abstraction point. The results of the analysis for different design cases of well field and screen length and positions for coastal sand dune aquifer in Thach Ha district, Ha Tinh province has showed that the height of salt water upconing is inversely proportional to the distance from the well screen bottom to the salt and fresh water interface. At the same time, for abstraction wells with the same depth, the height of salt water upconing as well as the time of salt water upconing to the abstraction wells are inversely proportional to the length of the well screen (i.e. the longer the well screen the less salt water upconing). The use of several abstraction wells to reduce the abstraction rate of each well (the total abstraction rate remains unchanged) has the effect of significantly reducing the salt water upconing process. The proposed methodology for salt water upconing assessment has been shown an effective role in supporting the design of groundwater abstraction facilities that are at risk of salinization from the lower part or lower aquifers for sustainable groundwater exploitation on the viewpoint of ensuring the quality of abstracted water and of protecting groundwater resources by limiting (even preventing) salt water intrusion.
Korupsi dalam Birokrasi dan Strategi Pencegahannya
Authors: Fatkhuri Fatkhuri
Published: March 2018

Korupsi dalam pelayanan publik telah menjadi masalah cukup serius di Indonesia. Korupsi dalam konteks pelayanan publik disebabkan oleh dua faktor utama, yaitu eksternal dan internal. Faktor eksternal karena adanya keinginan masyarkat untuk mendapatkan pelayanan secara cepat dalam berbagai urusan seperti pengurusan perijinan dan sejenisnya. Rentang kerja birokrasi yang panjang dan berbelit-belit (red-tape) menyebabkan masyarakat tidak sabar dan menginginkan proses yang cepat dan efisien. Sedangkan faktor internal lebihmenitikberatkan pada adanya fenomena rentang birokrasi yang panjang dengan sengaja dimanfaatkan oleh oknum-oknum di birokrasi untuk memperoleh keuntungan secara ilegal. Strategi dalam upaya mencegah dan memberantas korupsi adalah dengan dua hal: pertama penguatan kelembagaan internal birokrasi. Penguatan kelembagaan internal birokrasi dalam rangka mewujudkan birokrasi yang profesional. Birokrasi profesional harus dijalankandengan menerapkan aturan-aturan yang ketat dan pelaksanaanya dikontrol oleh atasan secaraketat, dan tenaga pelayanan birokrasi harus ditopang oleh orang-orang yang memilikikompetensi memadai. Kedua penguatan kapasitas sumber daya manusia yang mendorongbirokrasi diisi oleh orang-orang yang profesional. Sumber daya manusia yang profesionaladalah pegawai yang bekerja dengan pengetahuan dan kompetensi yang memadai danmemiliki integritas yang unggul. Penguatan kapasitas sumber daya manusia dilakukanmelalui profesional development program dan character building program.

Published: March 2018

In many of kinetic studies on binary component adsorption, the kinetic models for unary component adsorption were used although binary adsorption process were more complex than unary ones. We proposed a new kinetic model for multicomponent adsorption in batch systems. This model, using the deactivation kinetics model(DKM) for the noncatalytic heterogeneous reaction, is represented by a set of simultaneous ordinary differential equations, the characteristic is to calculate the concentration of adsorbates and the overall deactivation degree of the adsorbent with time together. The multicomponent adsorption kinetic model was solved with ODE function of MATLAB and the kinetic parameters were estimated by the nonlinear least squares fitting. The results of nonlinear fitting to the previous experimental data show that the proposed kinetic model can be useful for kinetics modeling of multicomponent adsorption in batch systems.
Who Makes the Call --- and How?
Authors: Kao Camilla , Kao Che-I
Published: March 2018

Recently we proposed that mission statements incorporating the concept of reducing uncertainty could provide a framework for learning the bread and depth of information that exists about health and safety. We briefly explained the definition of uncertainty in the context of health and safety, with the unifying principle being that everything you learn about safety is about exerting greater control. Acquiring more knowledge about an experiment, using equipment appropriately, designing experiments well, executing procedures well, and obtaining appropriate training are all mechanisms for increasing control.

Both researchers and their institutions can be the actors exerting control. But who should make the risk-based decisions related to the design of an experiment? Insecurity about the consequences of our own decisions frequently makes us want to have someone else decide a matter about safety, especially when that matter involves a gray area. Here we explain why researchers should be the main decision-makers about the safety of their experiments, with the researchers striving to thoroughly and creatively reduce the uncertainty of the well-being of themselves, their colleagues, and the environment. Even more, after comprehending the unifying principle outlined above for learning information about safety, researchers should make their primary goal in safety to be conceiving mechanisms for exerting greater control over their experiments that go beyond the mechanisms that health and safety practitioners teach. The essay ends by discussing how decision-making by researchers can improve the culture of safety.

Published: March 2018

C—H insertion reactions with organometallic and enzymatic catalysts based on earth-abundant iron complexes remain one of the major challenges in organic synthesis. In this report, we describe the development and application of these iron-based catalysts in the reaction of two different carbene precursors with N-heterocycles for the first time. While FeTPPCl showed excellent reactivity in the Fe(III) state with diazoacetonitrile, the highest activities of the YfeX enzyme could be achieved upon heme-iron reduction to Fe(II) with both diazoacetonitrile and ethyl diazoacetate. This highlights unexpected and subtle differences in reactivity of both iron catalysts. Deuterium labeling studies indicated a C—H insertion pathway and a marked kinetic isotope effect. This transformation features mild reaction conditions, excellent yields or turnover numbers with broad functional group tolerance, including gram-scale applications giving a unique access to functionalized N-heterocycles.

Kolaborasi kinerja antara konselor dengan guru atau staf kependidikan sangat dibutuhkan dalam penyelenggaraan layanan bimbingan dan konseling bagi siswa. Kolaborasi yang terjalin ini perlu disupervisi, salah satunya dengan menggunakan supervisi klinis berfokus multibudaya. Kegiatan supervisi ini menekankan pada aspek menyadari akan perbedaan budaya yang dapat muncul antara supervisor dan supervisee yang dapat berpengaruh terhadap kegiatan supervise. Seorang supervisor perlu menyadari tentang bias persepsi yang dapat berpengaruh terhadap kegiatan supervisi. Supervisor seyogyanya reaktif terhadap keragaman budaya dalam melaksanakan kegiatan supervisi yang ditunjukkan melalui pengakuan perbedaan budaya antara supervisor dan supervisee, memahami kekuatan perbedaan dan memulai diskusi mengenai keragaman. Supervisor juga mesti menyadari hambatan dalam supervisi multikultural, diantaranya yaitu: bias persepsi dan kurangnya pelatihan supervisi.

ABSTRACT The objectives of this study was to evaluate biopriming of chili seed with rhizobacteria to improve plant growth and control Phytophthora blight disease in a greenhouse. This experiment used three isolates of rhizobacteria, i.e. E1, E3C2 and F2B1, and isolate Phytophthora capsici (Cb6) isolated from the production center of chili in East Jawa. Laris variety from PT. East West was used in this experiment. This experiment used randomized block design with one factor, i.e. 11 levels of seed treatment (E1 rhizobacteria, E3C2 rhizobacteria, F2B1 rhizobacteria, E1+E3C2 rhizobacteria, E1+F2B1 rhizobacteria, E1+E3C2+F2B1 rhizobacteria, seed soaking in water, without soaking, metalaxyl, positive control and negative control). The result showed that seed treatment with combination of E1+F2B1 isolates when grown in nursery, significantly increased the height and number of leaves in chilli. Besides, seed treatment with F2B1 isolate and combination of E1+F2B1 isolates after transplanting were capable to improve plant growth and control Phytophthora blight disease in greenhouse.Keywords: greenhouse, isolate rhizobacteria, Phytophthora capsici  ABSTRAK Tujuan penelitian ini ialah mengevaluasi perlakuan biopriming benih cabai dengan rizobakteri dalam meningkatkan pertumbuhan bibit dan mengendalikan kejadian busuk Phytophthora di rumah kaca. Perlakuan biopriming benih dengan rizobakteri menggunakan tiga isolat rizobakteri E1, E3C2 dan F2B1 dan isolat Phytophthora capsici Cb6 hasil eksplorasi pertanaman cabai Jawa Timur. Benih yang digunakan dalam percobaan merupakan benih varietas Laris produksi PT. East West. Percobaan menggunakan rancangan acak kelompok satu faktor, masing-masing perlakuan diulang empat kali, dengan 11 taraf perlakuan, antara lain R0+ (kontrol positif, benih direndam dalam PDB tanpa perlakuan rizobakteri dengan inokulasi P. capsici), R0- (kontrol negatif, benih direndam dalam PDB tanpa perlakuan rizobakteri dan tanpa inokulasi P. capsici), R1 (perlakuan benih dengan isolat E1), R2 (isolat E3C2), R3 (isolat F2B1), R4 (kombinasi isolat E1+E3C2), R5 (kombinasi isolat E1+F2B1), R6 (kombinasi isolat E1+E3C2+F2B1), R0RA (benih direndam dalam air 24 jam), R0TR (benih tanpa rendam), R0M (benih direndam dalam metalaksil). Tanah inokulum P. capsici diberikan 28 hari setelah pindah-tanam di sekitar pangkal batang tanaman cabai di bawah permukaan tanah. Hasil percobaan menunjukkan, perlakuan dengan kombinasi isolat E1+F2B1 saat persemaian di rumah kaca nyata meningkatkan tinggi dan jumlah daun tanaman cabai. Perlakuan benih dengan isolat F2B1 maupun kombinasi isolat E1+F2B1 setelah pindah-tanam di rumah kaca memiliki kemampuan meningkatkan pertumbuhan tanaman serta mengendalikan penyakit busuk Phytophthora.

Apoderamento ilícito de aeronaves: Olimpíadas de Munique - 1972. Que aprendizado ficou?
Authors: Rodrigues Rodrigo De Oliveira
Published: March 2018

O aumento da procura pelo setor aeroportuário, principalmente em razão da realização de grandes eventos esportivos ou de datas comemorativas tem provocado muitas discussões em busca do gerenciamento dos riscos que essa movimentação pode causar. O presente trabalho objetiva analisar como a legislação internacional se posiciona e como o Brasil está se adequando a ela, principalmente no que diz respeito ao terrorismo e ao apoderamento ilícito de aeronaves. A magnitude de um atentado terrorista requer medidas mais rigorosas por parte da comunidade internacional para reprimir, prevenir e combater esse tipo de ação. Além disso, esta reflexão aponta os acontecimentos trágicos das Olimpíadas de 1972, os quais servem como material de estudo, pois, além de terem se passado dentro de aeroportos, revelam diversas falhas de planejamento e execução.

O estudo e a pesquisa científica sobre a atuação da Polícia Militar do Estado de Goiás na repressão ao tráfico ilícito de entorpecentes e drogas afins, trazem uma análise não só da repressão, mas também, do contexto social em que vivemos, pois o problema atinge todas as classes sociais. Este Artigo Científico pretende considerar a atuação da PMGO através de seu desempenho como órgão mantenedor da Ordem Pública no Estado por meio de suas atividades constitucionais, de acordo com o artigo 144, inciso V, da Constituição Federal de 1988. Outro fator analisado é a promulgação da Lei nº. 11.343 de 23 de agosto de 2006, suas principais mudanças e influências diretas e indiretas na atuação dos Órgãos de Segurança Pública do Estado de Goiás e por consequência a necessidade de atualização profissional sobre a melhor forma de atuação policial militar. Buscaram-se informações sobre as atuais práticas dos órgãos de segurança pública em nosso Estado e opiniões de responsáveis pela atividade de repressão ao tráfico nas suas respectivas organizações. A busca de tais informações visa ampliar os conhecimentos e possibilitar a implementação de análises sistêmicas visando alcançar melhorias de procedimentos operacionais. Acredita-se que este trabalho de nenhuma forma poderá esgotar os assuntos aqui propostos, apenas pretendemos abrir a discussão acadêmica sobre a atuação da Polícia Militar sob a Nova Lei de Drogas.

Published: March 2018

Nas últimas três décadas instalou-se nas áreas das ciências humanas e sociais um grande processo de busca de novas forma de olhar e compreender a realidade. Um universo de possibilidades desenhou-se no campo da pesquisa qualitativa, neste artigo, propõem-se algumas reflexões em torno da análise institucional e da pesquisa intervenção em articulação com a genealogia de Foucault. Espera-se contribuir com o debate em torno dos métodos de pesquisa, assim como, possibilitar outros caminhos de investigação no âmbito das instituições, considerando o instituído e o instituinte como espaço cheio de vicissitudes a serem apreendidas e compreendidas a partir das relações de saber-poder.
