Authors: Dung Tran Thi , Nghi Tran , Hung Nguyen The , Thanh Dinh Xuan , Ngoc Pham Bao , Tuyen Nguyen Thi , Nhan Tran Thi Thanh , Trang Nguyen Thi Huyen
Published: March 2018

The geological development history of Miocene deposits in three sedimentary basins as Phu Khanh, Nam Con Son and Tu Chinh - Vung May is actually a depositional evolution in relation to sea level change and tectonic movement. The Miocene deposits in three basins were formed in three  cycles corresponding to three depositional sequences: 1/ Early Miocene sequence: In this cycle, the tectonic setting of three basins is similar to one another, the terrain is less differentiated, the environment is mainly alluvial, coastal and shallow marine-bay. Topography of top Miocene surface was strongly deformed by the tectonic events such as compression, fault, fold that had created the rough relief and eroded unconformity surface. The product of erosion processes was supply of terrigenous depositional materials for early Miocene basins under the bay type. 2/ Middle Miocene sequence: The tectonic situation of three basins started changing. The basins were differentiated into 2 parts: The inner shelf with stable geological structure and dominated terrigenous deposits; The outer shelf was stronger subsidence the basin base topography was differentiated with the development of two sediment types: carbonate bearing terrigenous sediments and carbonate reefs. 3/ Late Miocene sequence: in this period the basins were differentiated into two distinct structural zones: the western zone with incline terrain,  the dominated terrigenous sediments and the eastern zone with strong differentiated terrain, reef development they played the erosion zone role and supplied a large amount of biological clastic sediments to the shallow lagoons-bay.
The Decline of a Dominant African Political Party: The Case and Future of South Africa's African National Congress (ANC)
Authors: Isike Christopher , Onapajo Hakeem
Published: March 2018

This paper investigates increasing claims that the ANC as South Africa's dominant party is losing its popularity and facing political decline. This is against the backdrop of growing disenchantment with the ruling party over a series of corruption cases, perceived poor service delivery and mal-governance characterizing the Jacob Zuma-led government. However, it is argued in this paper that there are no clear signs of the ANC losing the 2019 elections. Nevertheless, the party risks disintegration — as experience shows in other countries — if it does not effectively address issues relating to corruption, mal-governance and factionalism. The study is based on a careful reading of qualitative data from secondary sources including previous studies in journal articles and books, credible newspaper and magazine reports and institutional documents.
The Use of Biometric Technology in the Success of the 2015 General Elections in Nigeria
Authors: Fatai Abiodun , Adisa Lekan Ismaila
Published: March 2018

The use of technological devices in the electoral process has been seen as the solution to electoral fraud and manipulations in many fledgling democracies in Africa. Technological innovations such as biometric devices have reinforced democratic quality of elections, ensuring electoral integrity in many countries in Africa. The study examines the uses of biometric technology in the 2015 elections in Nigeria. This paper argues that although these technological innovations encountered some change in the 2015 elections, these innovations enhanced the free and fair character, credibility and legitimacy of the 2015 elections when compared to previous elections since 1999 in Nigeria. While the paper adopted a qualitative research method it concludes on the need for INEC to undertake critical training of their officials, as well as rigorous education of the political elites on the efficient use of the card readers and the implication for democratic consolidation in Nigeria.

RESPONSABILIDADE DAS PESSOAS JURÍDICAS EM INFRAÇÕES AMBIENTAIS EM FACE DO PRINCÍPIO DO NE BIS IN IDEM: UMA ABORDAGEM POLÍTICO-CRIMINAL
Authors: Kassada Daiane Ayumi , Carvalho Érika Mendes de
Published: March 2018

O presente estudo analisa o princípio ne bis in idem no ordenamento jurídico brasileiro como recurso político-criminal à contenção do punitivismo estatal. Nessa perspectiva, questiona a sobreposição de sanção administrativa e penal no âmbito dos ilícitos ambientais praticados por pessoas jurídicas e situa o princípio ne bis in idem como estratégia de contenção de iniciativas criminalizadoras, que apenas reforçam o caráter simbólico da intervenção penal e contribuem para a articulação de uma política criminal orientada à expansão do poder punitivo, em detrimento de princípios garantistas elementares.
CRIMINALIZAÇAO E CONTROLE EM TEMPOS DE BARBÁRIE: VISIBILIZANDO A SELETIVIDADE DOS APENADOS NO PRESÍDIO REGIONAL DE BLUMENAU (SC/BR).
Authors: Kelner Lenice , Lixa Ivone Fernades Morcilo
Published: March 2018

Como resultado da intervenção da Universidade Regional de Blumenau por mais de quinze (15) anos de um grupo de pesquisadores, professores e acadêmicos do Curso de Direito no Presídio local, surgiu a necessidade de visibilizar o sujeito encarcerado com a finalidade de verificar se a seletividade do controle punitivo brasileiro se reproduz na cidade de Blumenau. Utilizando o método etnográfico foram realizados levantamentos durante os anos de 2014 e 2015 que possibilitaram concluir que a lógica do controle penal local, seguindo o paradigma dominante, é um eficiente instrumento de exclusão absoluta e de extinção de cidadania.
Figures from the Past: Sargeson's Wandering Men and the Limits of Nationalism
Authors: Steer Philip
Published: March 2018

Frank Sargeson's repositioning of Henry Lawson as a 'colonial' writer, away from the more familiar categories of nationalism and realism, offers a provocation for re-considering his own short fiction. In taking up that challenge, this essay diverges from recent attempts to trouble the periodization of writing from the 1930s and 40s: rather than arguing that the concerns of cultural nationalism were anticipated in the nineteenth-century, it will make the case that colonial literary forms and cultural formations persist in some of the most familiar works of that later period.
'Man Alone and Men Together: Maurice Shadbolt, William Malone and Chunuk Bair'
Authors: Bennett James

This article will consider the motivation behind, and timing of, Maurice Shadbolt's interventions as a writer between 1982 and 1988 to determine the extent to which cultural nationalist interpretations of Gallipoli resonated in the decade and how they came about. My argument will pivot around Shadbolt's powerful 1982 stage play (Once on Chunuk Bair), subsequently adapted as a low budget feature film (Chunuk Bair).
'Men Alone' as Outlaws? Hyde's 'Starkie', Lee and Lee's Porcello, and Mulgan's Johnson
Authors: Ross John
Published: March 2018

The notion of 'criminal heroes', in the title originally submitted for the conference paper, offers some intriguing ironies, yet in investigating the protagonists, 'Starkie', aka James Douglas Stark, in Robin Hyde's Passport to Hell (1936), Albany Porcello, in John A. Lee's The Hunted (1936), and Johnson, in John Mulgan's Man Alone (1939), I came to see them rather as outlaws. The linking of the three works, and their authors, is neither arbitrary nor merely a matter of close dating: between March 1936 and June 1939 Hyde and Lee were carrying on a lively correspondence about their similar literary and social concerns, Hyde in 1935 had evidently been the author of a sympathetic review of Lee's first novel, Children of the Poor (1934), and may well have been influenced by it (at least in its providing her with a precedent); and also, as will be shown below, Mulgan's novel doubtless owed much to Lee's unpublished earlier writing.
The Making of New Zealanders
Authors: Mein Smith Philippa

Ron Palenski is a noted journalist as well as historian. As someone who has written on the history of sport and who runs the New Zealand Hall of Fame, he has a keen interest in national identity, so much so that we wrote a PhD on the subject at the University of Otago. The Making of New Zealanders is based on this thesis, though readers would not have known without being told as Palenski's skill as a writer ensures that the style is vigorous, engaging and accessible.
Strategic Intimacies: Knowledge and Colonization in Southern New Zealand

Thinking about the inter-relationship between close encounters of empire and the production of colonial knowledge is not really a leap of the imagination.
Pacific Brides: US Forces and Interracial Marriage during the Pacific War
Authors: Wanhalla Angela , Buxton Erica
Published: March 2018

Between 1942 and 1945, over two million servicemen occupied the southern Pacific theatre, the majority of them Americans in service with the Marines, Army, Navy and Air Force. When the United States entered World War II in December 1941, they 'swept in a mighty deluge' doubling, sometimes tripling the populations of the Pacific Islands. Their short but intense period of occupation in the South Pacific had far reaching consequences. Not only did they dramatically alter the economies and environments of the islands, they also brought with them a set of ideas about race and intimacy encapsulated in legal codes, as well as social practices, which were applied to the organization of their own forces, and to the local populations. American racial ideology also informed military regulations governing overseas marriages involving US forces, most notably inhibiting African American men's marital opportunities in the European theatre.

The study also undertakes a comparison of the changes in the gaps over a period approximating 10 years for each of the indicators. A total of 21 indicators are investigated in this study, incorporating measures of health; knowledge and skills; employment; standards of living; cultural identity; and social connectedness.
Labouring Feeling: Harry Holland's Political Emotions
Authors: McNeill Dougal
Published: March 2018

Reading Harry Holland’s literary works as an integral part of his political project and vision, this essay argues that greater attention be paid to the dissident, radical and revolutionary socialist currents shaping Labour’s thought world in the pre-1935 period. Holland’s socialist project, and its ambitions to shape new kinds of political subjects, had, I suggest, a wider resonance and is of greater contemporary interest than most historians have allowed. His poetry and literary works need restored to scholarly and political attention.
At the Margin of Empire: John Webster and Hokianga 1841-1900
Authors: Colquhoun David
Published: March 2018

Hokianga trader John Webster (1818-1912) lived a long and sometimes colourful life. It was enough to get him a page in Guy Scholefield’s 1940 Dictionary of New Zealand Biography, which concluded with praise for Webster’s “knowledge of Māori and sympathy for the race.”[i] James Cowan was similarly hagiographic in his 1930s series on famous New Zealanders in the New Zealand Railways Magazine. For Cowan, Webster was one of those “who sought their fortunes in the wildest parts of the earth, and distinguished themselves as pioneers of enterprise, self-reliance, and cool courage.”[ii] But our views of history have changed since then. The editors of the current Dictionary of New Zealand Biography thought there were far too many white male settler stories. They purged the cast, and Webster was one of the banished.[i] G. H. Scholefield (ed) “Webster, John”, A Dictionary of New Zealand Biography, Whitcomb & Tombs, Wellington 1940, volume II, p. 477.[ii] James Cowan “Famous New Zealanders – No. 43 – John Webster of Hokianga – The Adventures of a Pioneer”, New Zealand Railways Magazine, 1 October 1936, p. 17.
Ara Mai he Tētēkura - Visioning our futures: New and emerging pathways of Māori academic leadership
Authors: Standiland Nimbus
Published: March 2018

Ara Mai he Tētēkura - Visioning our futures: New and emerging pathways of Māori academic leadership is a relatively small paperback positioned as one of a series of MANU AO legacy publications. Other works from MANU AO, a national inter-university Māori Academy established from 2008 to 2011 to support Māori academic and professional advancement, include Spirit of Māori Leadership and the recently published Fire that kindles hearts: ten Māori scholars. This book takes inspiration from MANU AO leadership wānanga that took place in 2011, and is distinctive in its focus on the experiences of emerging academics as an indicator of the future of Māori academic leadership. The book's title Ara Mai he Tētēkura is explained as being drawn from the whakataukī (proverb) "Mate atu he tētē kura, ara mai he tētē kura". The meaning "when the fern frond dies, another rises in its place", encapsulates the notion of successive Māori leadership and the need for contemporary leaders to follow those leaders who have paved the way for Māori, particularly in academia.

Hello Girls & Boys! A New Zealand Toy Story
Authors: Townsend Lynette
Published: March 2018

Toys are powerfully evocative objects that can immediately connect us to a moment in the past. They have nostalgic appeal both in terms of our own childhood and that of others to which we are connected. Toys provide a tangible link to the past that most people can relate to, a link that is skilfully educed in David Veart’s Hello Girls & Boys! A New Zealand Toy Story. This book explores the ways in which toys are part of our everyday life and as such document moments in history, changes in society and culture, and evolving technologies.
Stoic and Sentimental: The Emotional Work of the Edwardian Greetings Postcard
Authors: Gilderdale Peter
Published: March 2018

For both Edwardian migrants and First World War soldiers, communicating home involved a choice as to the appropriate emotional regimes to use. Should they display stoic reserve, or communicate sentimental feeling? Research on correspondence has normally focused on letters, but this paper examines how emotion was dealt with through the multimodal medium of the greetings postcard. It argues that whilst handwritten texts on postcards remained primarily stoic, the pre-packaged visual vocabulary on greetings postcards allowed users to send strongly emotional arguments for the maintenance of their relationships without ever having to put these into their own words. Postcards, it seems, gave the Edwardians the option of being both stoic and sentimental.
Growing Sympathy for the "zoological aspect" : Primary School Nature Study, c. 1905-1960
Authors: Cook Janine
Published: March 2018

Biological ideas shaped cultural attitudes to animals in the first half of the twentieth century, and New Zealand’s primary school nature study programmes prior to 1960 provide insight into this. It is argued here that nature study reflected not only moral and religious rationale, but the “new natural history” and “new biology” of this era. Significantly, biological ideas enabled the rationalisation and integration of sympathetic and utilitarian perspectives, especially as regards farmed animals. This paper concludes that nature study reflected, and helped to foster, a fundamental appreciation of human-animal kinship, and support for ethical animal husbandry and the fledgling animal welfare movement.
From a Search for Rangatiratanga to a Struggle for Survival - Criminal Justice, the State and Māori, 1985 to 2015. The 2015 JD Stout Lecture
Authors: Workman Kim
Published: March 2018

In this presentation, I consider not only the relationship between Māori and the state, but the response of key criminal justice agencies to the surge of Māori confidence in the 1970’s and 80’s, and desire to take control of their own destiny – the Māori renaissance as it became known. How did the Police, the prisons and the youth justice system respond to this call for rangatiratanga? How easily did it respond to the idea that Māori, far from being passive recipients of the criminal justice system, wanted a piece of the action? How well did the operational reality meld with, on the one hand, the state’s vision of a bicultural nation, and on the other, the Māori vision for a measure of autonomy, a rangatiratanga not realised in any earlier constitutional or political arrangements?
Matters of the Heart: A History of interracial marriage in New Zealand
Authors: Reynolds Henry
Published: March 2018

Matters of the Heart is an important and an engaging book. As Angela Wanhalla explains, it traces the history of interracial relationships in all their variety over a two-hundred-year period, beginning in the 1770s and ending in the early 1970s. And it is all done in less than 200 pages. But while the survey is necessarily thin in places the range is impressive, the prose fresh, the arguments cogent and sustained. A vast amount of research underpins the text carried out in archives and libraries all over the country, both in the major institutions but also in small specialised and regional collections. The bibliography lists a little fewer than 500 books and articles and more than 50 newspapers from all over the country, although the more engaged reader might appreciate the dates as well as the titles of the papers consulted.

Co-existing Indigenous and Settler Worlds Ontological Styles and Possibilities
Authors: Bell Avril
Published: March 2018

Settler colonialism involves processes of destruction and substitution aiming to replace indigenous with European/western worlds. But indigenous worlds persist in numerous spaces, moments and interactions where distinct ontologies and ways of being-in-the-world prevail. In Aotearoa New Zealand these spaces of the Māori world persist most obviously on marae. Māori and western worlds also briefly come together in public contexts where Māori protocols are used to mark openings of various sorts, temporarily governing public space and sociability. In this paper, I explore a different case where, I argue, Māori and western worlds are entangled or knotted together in the carved pou in the atrium space of a new community building in Kaitaia.
Robert Burns Poet and Revolutionist
Authors: Wevers Lydia
Published: March 2018

The cover of this charming book features the Romantic portrait of Burns by Alexander Nasmyth, his cream breeches and white stock the only illumination in a darkly moody landscape, throwing light on his sweet and reflective expression. Offset in the corner is a black and white photograph of Harry Holland, also sweetly reflective but as far from Romantic as it is possible to be-a bluff, suited, serious, reliable, public man. And it is the dialogue between these two men, a century lying between them, that makes this such an interesting little book.
Prosaic Realities of the Work Time Dream
Authors: Henning Jon

This essay re-examines the story of the arrival of the eight-hour day in New Zealand in the 1840s and provides some insight into three other aspects of our work time history. These aspects are the extent to which workers worked long hours in the nineteenth century, the contest between those who sought shorter hours and those who resisted, and the political progress towards shorter hours that began in the 1890s.

Authors: Clayworth Peter
Published: March 2018

Since 2014, there has been a continual stream of official commemorations of the Great War’s centennial. The “Dissent and the First World War” conference, held in Wellington over 31 August to 2 September, demonstrated the importance of commemorating the counter-narratives of wartime dissent, offering a wide-ranging coverage of that dissent’s many faces. The conference was organised by the Stout Centre and the Labour History Project, with assistance from ARANZ (the Archives and Records Association of New Zealand) and the Ministry for Culture and Heritage.

Public health considerations for mass gatherings in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region
Authors: AlNsour M. , Fleischauer A.
Published: March 2018

This review describes major mass gatherings in the MENA region and the public health implications of these events, and provides recommendations for public health officials of the host country. Through our search of the literature for peer-reviewed publications, we identified relevant 77 papers; all were related to the annual Hajj. Using the information obtained from the literature review, the Eastern Mediterranean Public Health Network (EMPHNET) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) developed and conducted 2 workshops on Public Health Surveillance during Mass Gatherings for field epidemiology training programmes and ministry of health focal points from 10 countries. The main potential public health concerns associated with mass gatherings include: infectious diseases (e.g. respiratory disease, gastro-intestinal tract disease, foodborne disease), injuries, traffic accidents, heat-related illnesses, insect stings, non-communicable diseases and terrorism.
En el club de los aficionados a la ciencia ficción: Roberto Bolaño
Authors: Fernández Javier
Published: March 2018

El presente artículo profundiza y sistematiza en las referencias descubiertas entre Roberto Bolaño y grandes autores del género conocido como ciencia ficción, algunas de ellas todavía sin consignar desde un punto de vista académico. Asimismo se establecen dos vinculaciones que el narrador chileno tiene con dicho género: la percepción narrativa distante, cuya perspectiva de vértigo incluye un distanciamiento o una comparativa a escala planetaria y el conjunto de motivos o temas de la ciencia ficción que le permiten a Bolaño construir arriesgadas metáforas.                                                                                                                                                                           The article depicts the relationship between Roberto Bolaño’s works and the literary genre known as Science Fiction or SF. Based on previous academic literature that outlined this subject, the aim is to provide a deeper perspective and to offer a comparative analysis. Two will be the perspectives in which the focus will be set: the narrator’s distant perspective and the metaphoric use of common motifs.
Representación de la poesía de Andrés Sánchez Robayna en sus últimas antologías (2012 y 2016)
Authors: Ruiz Casanova José Francisco
Published: March 2018

A partir del análisis de una antología panorámica y una autoantología de la obra lírica del poeta Andrés Sánchez Robayna, en este trabajo se reflexiona sobre las cuestiones relativas a la poética de la antología, la representatividad, la trascendencia literaria e histórica y el canon. Se trata de un acercamiento comparativo a dos modos antológicos (la antología realizada por un antólogo-editor y la antología de autor) como medios de difusión y de proyección de la obra literaria.                                                                                                                                                                                                  From the analysis of a panoramic anthology and a self-antology of Andrés Sánchez Robayna’s poetry, this essay studies questions about the poetics of anthology, representativeness, literary and historical transcendence and the canon. It is a comparative approach to two anthological modes (the anthology made by an anthologist-editor and the author's anthology) as means of diffusion and projection of the literary work.                                                                                                                                                                                  A partir de l'analyse d'une anthologie panoramique et d'une autoanthologie de l'œuvre poétique d’Andrés Sánchez Robayna, nous réfléchissons dans ce travail aux questions liées à la poétique de l'anthologie, la représentativité, la transcendance littéraire et historique et le canon. Il s'agit d'une approche comparative de deux modes anthologiques (l'anthologie réalisée par un anthologiste-éditeur et l'anthologie de l'auteur) comme moyen de diffusion et de projection de l'œuvre littéraire.
Leer a Andrés Sánchez Robayna en compañía de Jaime Siles: extraña coincidencia o des-coincidencia familiar. Para una hermenéutica de la hospitalidad
Authors: Castro Idoli
Published: March 2018

Este artículo intenta aproximarse a las obras de Jaime Siles et de ASR no tanto comparándolas sino manifestando, desde la perspectiva poética y po-ética, los momentos de coincidencia y de des-coincidencia, conceptos teorizados por el filósofo francés François Jullien. La «entrada en la materia» (J. A. Valente) sensible y elemental (en el sentido merleau-pontiano) de ambas voces «intercorpóreas» es sin duda el momento de mayor coincidencia, abocando al camino de la ecocrítica. Al plasmar una reversibilidad de lo visible y de lo invisible, ambas obras participan de una definición de la poesía como precaria (Jérôme Thélot), poesía concebida como aquella toma de medida heideggeriana entre el cielo y la tierra, forma de habitar el mundo que incita a cada hombre a pedir lo imposible. Sin embargo, la carencia implicada en esa precariedad poética abre paradójicamente la vía de un posible pensamiento crítico de la hospitalidad, singularmente eco-poético y/o ecopo-ético.                                                                                                                                                                                              Cet article tente d’approcher les œuvres de Jaime Siles et d’ASR moins dans une perspective comparatiste que dans une volonté de manifester, tant en termes de poétique que de po-éthique, les moments de coïncidence et de décoïncidence, concepts que nous empruntons au philosophe français François Jullien. L’« entrée dans la matière » (J. A. Valente) sensible et élémentaire (dans le sens merleau-pontien) de ces deux voix « intercorporelles » s’avère sans doute le moment de plus grande coïncidence, nous conduisant ainsi sur le chemin de l’écocritique. Incarnant une réversibilité du visible et de l’invisible, ces deux œuvres participent d’une définition de la poésie comme précaire (Jérôme Thélot), poésie conçue comme cette prise de mesure heideggérienne entre le ciel et la terre, cette habitation du monde qui pousse tout homme à demander l’impossible. Toutefois, la carence qu’implique cette précarité poétique ouvre paradoxalement la voie d’une possible pensée critique de l’hospitalité, singulièrement éco-poétique et/ou écopo-éthique.

Published: March 2018

Este díptico se abre con un texto de Javier Gómez-Montero que esboza una semblanza del Taller de Traducción Literaria de La Laguna dirigido por Andrés Sánchez Robayna, recordando líneas maestras de su concepto de traducción como creación literaria e hitos especialmente significativos de esta importante iniciativa para las letras hispánicas.  La contribución principal, de Christina Johanna Bischoff, da cuenta de la traducción al alemán de Sobre una confidencia del mar griego, precedido de Correspondencias, de Andrés Sánchez Robayna. Partiendo de un breve análisis de aspectos poéticos y poetológicos claves, se presentan las metas y algunos problemas clave de dicha traducción.                                                                                                                                                                                         Dieses Diptychon umfasst zwei Beiträge. Javier Gómez-Montero stellt die von Andrés Sánchez Robayna geleitete Übersetzerwerkstatt La Laguna (Taller de Traducción Literaria de La Laguna) vor, skizziert Sánchez Robaynas Konzept einer als literarische Schöpfung zu verstehenden Übersetzung und benennt die Meilensteine dieser für die spanische Literatur bedeutenden Initiative. Einen Schwerpunkt bildet sodann der Beitrag von Christina Johanna Bischoff, der über die deutsche Übersetzung von Sobre una confidencia del mar griego und Correspondencia von Andrés Sáchez Robayna berichtet. Ausgehend von einer knappen Analyse poetisch-poetologischer Aspekte der beiden Sammlungen werden die Zielsetzungen der Übersetzung vorgestellt und konkrete Übersetzungsprobleme erörtert.
Auditoría integral a los procesos administrativos y financieros de pyme. Experiencias en el caso cooperativa de ahorro y crédito “El sol de los Andes” (Ecuador)
Authors: Ruiz Alvarado Priscila Isabel
Published: March 2018

Las Cooperativas de Ahorro y Crédito en el Ecuador, en la provincia y el cantón Cañar han tenido un notable crecimiento en los últimos cinco años se ha evidenciado la apertura de un considerable número de ellas en la ciudad, lideradas por grupos o asociaciones indígenas del Cañar o del norte del país, generando desarrollo y crecimiento en las actividades productivas en la cabecera cantonal así como en las comunidades campesinas.
Para nuestro estudio se ha considerado el caso de una de ellas que para este artículo la denominaremos “Cooperativa de Ahorro y Crédito el “Sol de los Andes”, ya que por la confidencialidad que conllevan los informes de auditoría no se puede revelar la identidad del ente auditado.
Esta Cooperativa se crea por iniciativa de 15 migrantes el 31 de mayo del 2011  y desde esa fecha ha ido creciendo y ajustándose a los cambios en cuanto a las leyes, regulaciones y condiciones del entorno a las cuales se ha enfrentado.
La realización de una auditoría integral al proceso de ahorros programados de la institución financiera servirá de una herramienta de mejora y crecimiento ya que se enfoca a cuatro aspectos fundamentales de accionar administrativo y financiero.

Authors: Da Silva Joana Cunha , Martins Karina Severiano , De Oliveira Suellen Ribeiro , Gava Roberta Peixoto
Published: March 2018

O Diabetes Mellitus do tipo 2 é um transtorno metabólico caracterizado por hiperglicemia crônica de elevada morbimortalidade. O objetivo do estudo foi comparar o controle glicêmico do Diabetes Mellitus do tipo 2 por meio da intervenção do tratamento clínico e da cirurgia bariátrica, em 20 pacientes, de ambos os sexos e idade na faixa entre 20 a 65 anos, com IMC ? 35 kg/m2, em Campos dos Goytacazes, RJ, em 2016. Para isso, foram analisadas a resposta ao controle glicêmico, laboratorialmente, com seguimento mínimo de 3 meses. Resultados: Do total (n=20) de ambos os grupos, observou-se que a maioria são mulheres (65%) e a maioria dos pacientes situaram-se entre 24 a 65 anos. Em relação à avaliação da glicemia de jejum, todos os pacientes do grupo cirúrgico conseguiram reduzir o nível glicêmico para abaixo de 126 mg/dl na pós intervenção, em contrapartida aos 60% no grupo clínico. Observou-se que 88,9% dos pacientes do grupo cirúrgico tiveram uma melhora dos níveis de HbA1c (<7%), em contrapartida, 50% dos pacientes do grupo clínico mantiveram valores acima do ideal (?7%) após o retorno de 3 meses. Observou-se uma redução do IMC do grupo cirúrgico (média IMC= 35,2 kg/m2 ± 1,1), seguindo uma média de IMC de 37,7kg/m2 ± 3,8 do grupo clínico após retorno. O grupo cirúrgico obteve melhor controle ponderal e da glicemia na pós-intervenção do que o grupo clínico, ao observar os parâmetros de: glicemia em jejum, HbA1C e IMC.
CISTO EPIDERMÓIDE DIAFRAGMÁTICO - RELATO DE CASO
Authors: Lima Gabriela Arêdes , Azevedo Fernanda Santos , Júnior Haroldo José Siqueira da Igreja
Published: March 2018

Introdução: Cistos epidermóides não cutâneos são anormalidades incomuns que podem ser encontradas em qualquer lugar do organismo, incluindo o diafragma, um sítio extremamente raro para ocorrência de tumores primários. Em geral, apresentam-se assintomáticos, porém dor torácica ou abdominal pode ser referida. Objetivo: Descrever um caso de cisto epidermóide diafragmático de grandes dimensões. Relato do caso: Paciente sexo feminino, 46 anos, solteira, há dois dias iniciou um quadro de dor pleurítica em rebordo costal direito e dor em hipocôndrio direito associada à anorexia. Realizada tomografia computadorizada do abdomen a qual evidenciou tumoração sólido-cística, medindo 20 x 14 x 0,5 cm, subfrênica direita, determinando retração hepática e mediocaudal da veia cava inferior medialmente. Sendo assim, foi indicada ressecção. Para melhor definição da histogênese, foi realizado estudo imunohistoquímico o qual elucidou o diagnóstico de cisto epidermóide. Conclusão: Na literatura, é descrita a lesão clássica do cisto epidermóide como sendo de origem cutânea, tornando incomum o tipo não cutâneo. Dentre esses, são raros os casos descritos na literatura de cisto epidermóide diafragmático. O caso relatado desse tipo de cisto de grandes dimensões evidencia que a localização e o tamanho podem determinar o aparecimento de sintomas e até mesmo de retrações de órgãos.

Objetivo: Indicar os principais sinais de Transtorno do Espectro do Autismo em crianças de zero a três anos. Método: Revisão bibliográfica e entrevista a cinco responsáveis por crianças com diagnóstico de Autismo. Resultados: As cinco entrevistadas relataram ter observado algo de diferente no desenvolvimento das crianças desde os primeiros meses de vida. Discussão: A dificuldade no diagnóstico, antes dos 36 meses de idade se deve, em parte, à falta de conhecimento, pelos profissionais, sobre marcos do desenvolvimento típico. Conclusão: Pais e cuidadores devem estar atentos a atrasos no desenvolvimento infantil, principalmente na interação social e na linguagem pré-verbal, para intervirem precocemente.

GESTÃO DA EDUCAÇÃO PÚBLICA NO BRASIL:
Authors: Drabach Nadia Pedrotti
Published: March 2018

Este artigo é de natureza teórica e tem como objetivo discutir a introdução de mecanismos da gestão privada na educação pública no Brasil durante a Ditadura Militar, além da construção da gestão democrática da escola pública que emergiu no final da década de 1970 e início dos anos 1980. A discussão do tema será fundamentada no estudo da literatura da área. O texto aponta, no primeiro momento, para a contradição existente entre o conservadorismo das políticas para a educação que existiu durante a Ditadura Militar, que iniciou em 1964, e os movimentos de cultura e de educação popular, que surgiram no início dos anos 1960, período imediatamente anterior à Ditadura. Esses movimentos eram  caminhos alternativos à educação tradicional e elitista que predominava no país e uma forma de enfrentar o analfabetismo, especialmente nos estados do Nordeste brasileiro. No segundo momento, o texto discute, o caráter tecnicista da Administração Escolar e o conservadorismo das políticas educacionais no período ditatorial. No terceiro momento o texto discute as diversas críticas que surgiram no final dos anos 1970 e início dos anos 1980 sobre os fundamentos da administração geral aplicados à educação, cuja base vinha das teorias de administração empresarial e que estavam presente no período anterior. As críticas tinham um enfoque teórico de base marxista, trazendo uma visão crítica sobre o papel da educação na sociedade, destacando o seu caráter essencialmente político. Durante a Ditadura, as propostas destinadas à educação eram soluções fáceis e aligeiradas, que se materializaram especialmente no incentivo à educação privada. No campo da Administração Escolar, práticas de gestão burocratizada e tecnicistas predominavam.  Nos anos 1980, o processo de redemocratização do país trouxe para o campo da educação o debate em defesa de uma administração coletiva da escola, com a participação da comunidade nas tomadas de decisão e a exclusividade do financiamento da escola pública pelo poder público.

Published: March 2018

Políticas afirmativas veem promovendo a democratização da Educação Superior brasileira. Este artigo objetiva identificar contextos emergentes que envolvem o campo da Educação Superior. Utilizou-se para, pesquisa bibliográfica por meio dos descritores Estudante da Educação Superior, Estudante na Educação Superior, Estudante e a Educação Superior, Aluno da Educação Superior, e Discente da Educação Superior, na base de dados da Biblioteca Digital Brasileira de Teses e Dissertações. São apontados, nos trabalhos encontrados, o acesso e permanência de um novo perfil estudantil no campus nas últimas décadas. A importância do acesso à Educação Superior é destacada nas teses e dissertações, porém são elencados fatores que dificultam e, por vezes, inviabilizam a permanência do aluno na graduação. Problemas financeiros, adaptação ao contexto universitário, pouco apoio familiar e dificuldades na aprendizagem são apontados. As conclusões dos trabalhos analisados sinalizam a necessidade da implementação de estratégias de permanência, tendo o acompanhamento ao aluno como cerne no contínuo do curso. Para graduar-se não basta apenas o acesso, mas principalmente, a permanência até a integralização.
