Comparando políticas de desenvolvimento e atuação do Estado: América Latina e Tigres Asiáticos
Authors: Helal Diogo Henrique , Rocha Daniete Fernandes
Published: March 2017

Este trabalho aprofunda o debate sobre as relações Estado-Sociedade e mostra como elas definem as possibilidades de desenvolvimento, fazendo uma breve análise comparativa da atuação do Estado no Japão, Coréia do Sul e Taiwan, de um lado, e Brasil (principalmente), Argentina e México, do outro. Os países do Leste Asiático constituem casos paradigmáticos da rápida industrialização local e de ajustes a mercados internacionais mutáveis. Trata-se de Estados ativos, que funcionaram como substitutos de mercados de capital pouco desenvolvidos, ao mesmo tempo em que induziram mudanças nas decisões de investimento. O caso asiático mostra que a inserção é necessária para a disseminação de informações e implementação das políticas desenvolvimentistas. Contudo, sem autonomia, a inserção tende a se degenerar em um super cartel, voltado, como todos os cartéis, à proteção de seus membros contra mudanças no status quo (insulamento burocrático). Já a América Latina se insere em combinações da predação zairense com a autonomia inserida do Leste da Ásia. O equilíbrio varia ao longo do tempo e segundo o tipo de organização dentro do Estado. De modo geral, tem-se que é necessária, apenas, uma vaga aproximação do tipo ideal weberiano e do modelo de autonomia inserida (ou desenvolvimentista) para conferir vantagem ao país.

Published: March 2017

O presente estudo tem como objetivo discutir o papel dos supermercados no descarte de produtos, essencialmente no que se refere à produção de lixo doméstico oriundo das compras supermercadistas. Inicia-se com uma abordagem reflexiva baseada em pesquisa bibliográfica e agrega-se resultados de pesquisa exploratória. Investigaram-se três supermercados localizados no perímetro central de um município da Região Noroeste do Estado do Rio Grande do Sul, incluindo seus gestores e consumidores. Para a coleta de dados, foi utilizado o método survey de pesquisa, com aplicação de 150 questionários a consumidores e entrevistas com os gestores dos três supermercados em análise. Realizou-se ainda, pesquisa participante com o acompanhamento da produção de lixo oriundo de compras em supermercados. Os resultados demonstram que as famílias produzem uma quantidade significativa de lixo, advinda de compras nas lojas, a qual é descartada no lixo comum, acarretando em problemas ambientais e de saúde para a população. Neste processo, constatou-se que os gestores das três empresas executam algumas ações para reduzir os impactos de suas operações, entretanto, acabam minimizando a sua responsabilidade quanto à preservação ambiental, transferindo-a ao fabricante e ao consumidor.

Published: March 2017

Este artigo possui como objetivo realizar um estudo sociométrico de cooperação entre autores acerca das temáticas stakeholders, agro e bioenergia, biocombustíveis e sustentabilidade. Para operacionaliza-lo foi efetuada uma pesquisa bibliométrica em periódicos nacionais A1, A2, B1, B2, B3 e B4 e análise sociométrica, o que permite verificar a estrutura de cooperação entre autores, bem como classificar os autores de acordo com a regularidade e a distribuição de suas publicações ao longo do tempo. Compuseram a amostra 54 artigos, sendo 09 sobre a temática stakeholders, 13 sobre agro e bioenergia, 17 sobre biocombustíveis e 15 sobre sustentabilidade. O levantamento foi efetuado no período de 10 anos (janeiro de 2002 a 2012). As palavras-chave de busca foram “agroenergia”, “bioenergia”, “biocombustíveis”, “stakeholder”, “stakeholders” e “sustentabilidade”. Constatou-se que acerca da temática stakeholders nas 6 redes de cooperação existentes, as quais envolvem 21 autores, não há presença de atores centrais. De mesmo modo, nas temáticas agro e bioenergia, biocombustíveis e sustentabilidade foram encontradas conexões ínfimas entre diferentes redes de cooperação. Tais informações permitem concluir que, por ora, os pesquisadores brasileiros que publicam nas temáticas em análise atuam de modo isolado, sem investir e fortalecer a cooperação junto aos pares e estabelecerem líderes que orquestram seguidores.
A superação do desenvolvimento pelo dinamismo do envolvimento rural
Authors: Nadaleto Claudio Eduardo Silva
Published: March 2017

As discussões acerca do desenvolvimento, sejam direcionadas ao meio rural, urbano-industrial ou ao nível dos Estados nacionais, contém uma função ideológica tacitamente incorporada que visa à dominação dos países hegemônicos centrais e a difusão de seu estilo de vida aos países periféricos. O processo de modernização agrícola, incorporado no Brasil principalmente a partir dos anos 1960, teve como resultado a parcial desarticulação dos modos camponeses de se fazer agricultura e toda a sua sociabilidade, economia moral, tradição cultural e relação com a natureza. Assim, ele foi parcialmente exitoso em desenvolver o meio rural, desagregando parte do sistema camponês e familiar em troca da produção de poucas mercadorias feita por empresas agrícolas. Os estudiosos que acompanharam esse processo e o interpretaram, deram a ele o nome de desenvolvimento agrícola, e após constatarem, já nos anos 90, que esse modelo não trouxe avanços e sim retrocessos ao campo e às cidades, passaram a teorizar a partir de novos enfoques e sobre outros atores, compondo assim o que vem sendo chamado de desenvolvimento rural. No entanto, mesmo com o olhar renovado pelo reconhecimento do protagonismo das formas familiares e camponesas de se fazer agricultura, e pela valorização da diversidade nas ruralidades, o mito do desenvolvimento ainda permeia os debates. Nesse sentido, esse artigo busca mostrar que é mais pertinente analisar a nova ruralidade com o conceito de envolvimento rural, ao invés de conservar o inapropriado termo desenvolvimento.

Authors: Li Junye , Hu Jinglei , Zhang Xinming , Zhao Weihong
Published: March 2017

In order to get further study for the effect of abrasive grains to the wall of the workpiece during polishing process, a new method of discrete element that carry out the numerical simulation with DEM is put forward, and the visual calculation is performed for the abrasive grain movement in the nozzle. The interaction of particles-particles or particles-workpiece wall during the polishing process and the tracks of single grain in the workpiece are analyzed by observing the distribution of abrasive grain in the workpiece at different time. The surface removal mechanism of abrasive grains to the workpiece material is discussed by analyzing the collision process of particles to the workpiece wall. The wear level of the abrasive grains to the inner surface of the workpiece is studied through the force of abrasive grain to the workpiece wall consumption, and finally explore the cutting effect of particles to workpiece wall. As a consequence, the abrasive flow processing experiment is carried out. The surface roughness of the large hole and small hole of the nozzle are detected by stylus measurement. The conclusion shows that the surface roughness for the large hole and the small hole before the experiment is1.741 μm and 1.201 μm, its 0.801 μm, 0.651 μm after it. Further roughness tests are performed on the surface of the pores by means of a grating surface measuring instrument. The result indicates that the surface roughness reduces from 2.67 μm to 0.697 μm, 0.728 μm, 0.782 μm. Apparently, the surface roughness of the hole is sharply reduced, which has a smooth and flat inner surface, the effectiveness and reliability of the abrasive flow are verified.
The Emerging Roles of RASSF5 in Human Malignancy
Authors: Li Shuofeng , Teng Jingwei , Li Haiqing , Chen Feifei , Zheng Junnian
Published: March 2017

Ras association domain family member 5 (RASSF5, also named NORE1) is an identified member of
the RASSF gene family which could bind selectively to activate Ras and function as an antineoplastic effector in
multiple cellular regulations. While highly expressed in majority of normal tissues, RASSF5 is epigenetically
inactivated by promoter hypermethylation in numerous cancer cell lines and primary cancers, suggesting it as a
potential tumor suppressor. Nevertheless, the physiologic significance of RASSF5 in tumorigenesis remains
unclear. We performed a systematic literature review and assessment from PUBMED and MEDLINE databases
in this article. RASSF5 is involved in a series of cellular responses including apoptosis, senescence, cell cycle
regulation, differentiation and cell proliferation and the inactivation of RASSF5 has been implicated to participate
in the oncogenesis, progression and poor prognosis of human cancers. In this review, we mainly elucidate
the acknowledged structure, progress in the verified functions and research advances of RASSF5 and the probably
relevant signaling pathways. Based on these evidences, potentiality of RASSF5 as a new therapeutic target
for human cancers may play a significant role in future oncotherapy.
APPLICATON OF MYCORRIZA ON PLANTING MEDIA OF TWO TOMATO VARIETIES TO INCREASEVEGETABLE PRODUCTIVITY IN DROUGHT CONDITION
Authors: Kuswandi Paramita Cahyaningrum , Sugiyarto Lili
Published: March 2017

A method used for the development of dry areas/marginal lands is the improvement of soil structure and addition to the media to support the growth and development of crops. Tomatoes have the potential to be developed in marginal lands due to its high nutrition, high in demand and easy to be cultivated. One of the method used to improve planting media is the addition of microorganism such as mycorrhiza which can help the absorbtion of water and nutrition for plants. The interval of irrigation is used as a simulation of drought. This research aim was to observe the effect of mycorrhiza in the soil on the growth and development of tomato with several treatments of irrigation. The method used was the addition of 4 g of mycorrhiza  per polybag (size 30x30 cm2), using Complete Randomized Design. There were 6 combinations of treatments. The treatments were : 3 interval of irrigation (every day, every 7 days and every 14 days), and 2 treatments of mycorrhiza (0 g and 4 g). There were 3 repetition for each combination of treatments. The results showed that the addition of mycorrhiza can increase significantly plant fresh and dry weight and also root length. The difference in plant height, number of branches, number of leaves, plant growth rate and percentage of infection were caused by the difference in irrigation interval. The difference in the varieties used also contribute to a difference in the percentage of infection. Further research must be made on the effect of mycorrhiza with addition of inorganic fertilizer to increase the growth and development of tomato plants in water stressed condition. Keywords:   mycorriza, tomato, draught simulation

The Paradoxical Travel Behavior of Bangkokians
Authors: Pujinda Panit , Yupho Sauvanithi
Published: March 2017

Bangkok has been ranked as the world’s most traffic jam more than decades. At the same time, the city is constantly developed with many maga projects with the attempt to heal the problem. However, the developments in Bangkok do not follow transportation planning as elaborated in this paper through three basic expectations of travel behavior. They based on transportation planning in Bangkok are: (1) heavy rail transit that runs on a radial line will transport passengers from residential neighborhoods in outer Bangkok to the central business district (CBD); (2) If the workplace is fixed, persons who live in outer Bangkok are assumed to have higher travel cost and commuting time than those who live in the city center; and (3). A feeder system will support heavy rail transit by expanding service areas and increasing passengers. However, this paper documents how Thai travel behavior is not necessarily conforming to expectations.Keywords: Quality of Life; Travel Behavior; Public Transportation; BangkokISSN: 2398-4287© 2017.

Published: March 2017

Background and objectives

Family members and friends of patients with advanced chronic illness are increasingly called on to assist with ever more complex medical care and treatment decisions arising late in the course of illness. Our goal was to learn about the experiences of family members and friends of patients with advanced kidney disease.

Design, setting, participants, & measurements

As part of a study intended to identify opportunities to enhance advance care planning, we conducted semistructured interviews at the Veterans Affairs Puget Sound Health Care System with 17 family members and friends of patients with advanced kidney disease. Interviews were conducted between April of 2014 and May of 2016 and were audiotaped, transcribed, and analyzed inductively using grounded theory to identify emergent themes.

Results

The following three themes emerged from interviews with patients’ family members and friends: (1) their roles in care and planning were fluid over the course of the patient’s illness, shaped by the patients’ changing needs and their readiness to involve those close to them; (2) their involvement in patients’ care was strongly shaped by health care system needs. Family and friends described filling gaps left by the health care system and how their involvement in care and decision-making was at times constrained and at other times expected by providers, depending on system needs; and (3) they described multiple sources of tension and conflict in their interactions with patients and the health care system, including instances of being pitted against the patient.

Conclusions

Interviews with family members and friends of patients with advanced kidney disease provide a window on the complex dynamics shaping their engagement in patients’ care, and highlight the potential value of offering opportunities for engagement throughout the course of illness.

Factorial invariance of an information security culture assessment instrument for multinational organisations with operations across data protection jurisdictions
Authors: Martins Nico , da Veiga Adéle
Published: March 2017

An information security culture is influenced by various factors, one being regulatory requirements. The United Kingdom (UK) has been regulated through the UK Data Protection Act since 1995, whereas South Africa (SA) only promulgated the Protection of Personal Information Act (PoPI) in 2013. Both laws stipulate requirements from an information security perspective with regard to the processing of personal information, however in the UK this has been regulated for a longer period. Consequently, it is to be expected that the information security culture for organisations in the UK will be significantly different from that of SA. This raises the question as to whether the same information security culture assessment (ISCA) instrument could be used in an organisation with offices in both jurisdictions, and whether it might be necessary to customise it according the particular country’s enforcement of information security and privacy-related conditions. This is reviewed, firstly from a theoretical perspective, and secondly a factorial invariance analysis was conducted in a multinational organisation with offices in both the UK and SA, using data from an ISCA questionnaire, to determine possible factorial invariances in terms of the ISCA.

Authors: van Scheers Louise , van Scheers Jacques
Published: March 2017

The aim of this paper is to determine small and medium enterprise (SME) social media activities and promote CE scholarship engagement. It is a community engagement project conducted in the Tshwane community. Community engagement (CE) as a planned process with the specific purpose of working with identified groups of people in the community to address issues affecting their well-being. The CE project SME skills transfer workshops are aimed at expanding involvement with the community. The benefits of social media seem to be ignored by most SMEs however; challenges prevent SME owners from using the tool effectively. A survey study method of research design has been selected for the research. The sample for the study comprised 200 SME owners who currently manage small businesses in the Tshwane area.
The conducted research recommends that social media can be cost effective if the SMEs make use of their social networks and use best practises that enable them to get their adverts or posts shared across social networks. The conducted research also recommends that SMEs with limited resources start with social media and YouTube as a marketing tool, as the learning curve is low and cost involved is almost nil.

The purposes of the research are: (1) To determine differences in learning outcomes of students with Inquiry Training models and Direct Instruction teaching models, (2) to determine differences in physics learning outcomes of students who have high critical thinking and low critical thinking, (3) to determine the interaction between learning models with the level of critical thinking in improving student Physics learning outcomes. The sample in this study conducted in a cluster random sampling of two classes, where the first class as a class experiment applied Inquiry Training models as a class and the second class of controls implemented Direct Instruction models. The instrument is used in this study is physics learning outcomes tests in narrative form as many as 7 questions and critical thinking test in narrative form as 7 questions that have been declared valid and reliable. The results were found: (1) there are differences in physical students learning outcomes are taught by Inquiry Training models and Direct Instruction teaching models. Learning outcomes of students who are taught by Inquiry Learning Model Training better than student learning outcomes are taught with Direct Instruction Model Learning. (2) There is a difference in student's learning outcomes that have high critical thinking and low critical thinking. Student learning outcomes that have a high critical thinking better than student learning outcomes that have a low critical thinking. (3) There is interaction between learning and mastery of material Model Physics prerequisite to student learning outcomes. Learning outcomes of students who are taught by the model is influenced also by the Inquiry Training critical thinking, while learning outcomes of students who are taught with Direct Instruction models are not affected by the students' critical thinking.
