Cholestasis gravidarum in women in the second and third trimester of gestation, clinical and specific pharmacological treatment and its benefits
Authors: Nobre Da Silva Logran , Estrin Marcelo Adrian
Published: October 2024

Introduction: cholestasis gravidarum is a syndrome that usually occurs in pregnant women in the second or third trimester of pregnancy and ends in the puerperium. It is clinically characterized by the presence of predominantly nocturnal pruritus that is palmoplantar at first and then generalized. Alterations in liver function with or without jaundice and elevated serum bile acid levels, biochemical cholestasis is classified as mild to moderate in severity.This pathology does not have significant consequences for the mother, but it is associated with a high risk of affecting the newborn, such as premature delivery, fetal distress, fetal arrhythmias and intrauterine death. Objective: diagnostic methods and behaviors in their pharmacological treatments that provide the best results for those patients. Methods: systematic review with qualitative database from the PUBMED platform. The articles were downloaded from the PUBMED platform and Zotero was used to make the proper citations and references. In the investigation, the population will be composed of adult female patients who were admitted to any health care unit during the second and third trimesters. Results: the PUBMED database was used with the following MESH terms (cholestasis of pregnancy) that generated 2 597 results. 28 articles were analyzed in more depth, of which 12 articles were finally selected for the final analysis. Ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA), a beta epimer of chenodeoxycholic acid, is a more polar bile acid than primary bile acids, with substantial choleretic and multiple other chemoprotective effects. The mechanism of action is not fully understood, but studies have shown that after treatment there is a reduction in total serum bile acids in both maternal and umbilical cord serum and a qualitative change in bile acid pool. serum. When compared to all controls, UDCA was also found to be associated with a decreased incidence of preterm birth, neonatal respiratory distress, and the number of neonatal intensive care unit admissions

Authors: Sampaio de Andrade Andreza , Postorivo Nauman José Vicente
Published: October 2024

Background: Obesity and breast cancer represent an important public health problem given the high frequency of both conditions in the world population. The objective of the present study is to systematically review and analyze the most current scientiﬁc evidence regarding the association between obesity and the development of breast cancer in premenopausal and postmenopausal women. Material and methods: A systematic review of the literature was carried out using a highly sensitive search in the main databases of Pubmed, Embase, Scholar google and Cochrane using observational studies and clinical trials that have been studied as inclusion criteria Obesity as a risk factor for breast cancer. Results: Obesity and overweight are associated with a greater risk of breast cancer development, speciﬁcally ER+, a worse prognosis, and a greater mortality rate. The association between body fat, early age and breast cancer is contradictory, but can play a protective role in both pre and postmenopausal women. Conclusion: It is possible to infer that with regard to body weight, the best way to prevent breast cancer is to maintain an adequate weight, mainly through a healthy lifestyle. However, it is necessary to deﬁne, through studies, the amount of body weight gained and the period of life in which the risk of breast cancer increases
El Transhumanismo. Nuevos posicionamientos teóricos del Trabajo Social; Tópicos de la 2a reconceptualización
Authors:   Universidad Autónoma de Coahuila, Acevedo Alemán Jesús
Published: October 2024

El transhumanismo es un tema de moda y eso hace que en ocasiones se trate con demasiada frivolidad o, lo que es peor aún, que se asuman sus promesas sin ningún análisis crítico. Es algo que vemos con reiteración en las numerosas publicaciones que sobre dicho tema se han generado en los últimos años. La presente obra va a contracorriente de esa tendencia, puesto que trata de encontrar de forma rigurosa y argumentada los puntos en los que la filosofía transhumanista puede influir de diversas formas, sobre todo en sus implicaciones sociales y éticas, en el trabajo social. Su intención es sugerir un nuevo debate en relación a las posibilidades de nuevos modelos teóricos y metodológicos, en los cuales se haga uso de la tecnología e inteligencia artificial, que más allá de representar una amenaza profesional se vea como una fortaleza disciplinar.

Published: October 2024

Purpose: This research was designed to study how the teacher uses scaffolding strategies in teaching pre-numeracy skills among preschool children. Methodology: The qualitative study has employed the phenomenology research design. The sample comprised five preschool children and a pre-school teacher from a private preschool at Klang district in Selangor. Purposive sampling was employed in choosing the sample. Three instruments were used to investigate the children performance level and to  identify how the scaffolding strategies employed by the teacher helped to enhanced preschool children’s pre-numeracy skills. The instruments were classroom observation checklist, document analysis (namely children’s worksheet) and face to face interviews with the teacher. Five classroom observations were conducted by the researchers to collect the data.  Findings: Results of the document analysis and the observations (ten observations) indicated that  the teacher used excavating, modelling, guiding, focusing, and extending scaffolding strategies to enhance the children’s pre-numeracy skills. In addition, the children learned very fast when their engagement improved and they were willing to learn in an atmosphere of fun and excitement. The findings also revealed that these strategies are effective in helping the children to master the pre-numeracy skills and their level of performance improved. Conclusion: This study has crucial practical implications whereby the results  suggest that The Ministry of Education can train preschool teachers to employ scaffolding strategies to teach numeracy skills. In term of pedagogical implication preschool teachers can use scaffolding strategies as an alternative method to assist students in mastering numeracy skills. Contribution/Originality: This study provides valuable insights on how to use various scaffolding strategies (excavating, modelling, guiding, focusing, and extending) to enhance the children’s pre-numeracy skills. These strategies seem to be effective in helping children to master pre-numeracy skills.
Manipulación algorítmica y sesgo psicosocial en redes sociales
Authors: Colina Carlos
Published: October 2024

La concepción tradicional y crítica de la manipulación suele ser reductora y simplificante, pero resurge ahora con las tecnologías emergentes. No obstante, ante la manipulación del otro real o vicario que induce el sesgo algorítmico, está también nuestro sesgo individual o psicosocial. Es innegable que la capacidad de manipulación real se ha potenciado de manera inconmensurable con cierto uso de las redes sociales, pero ha operado, a veces, sobre tendencias al sesgo preexistentes. Los problemas sociales y comunicacionales han adquirido un grado de complejidad tan elevado, que demandan, ahora más que nunca, el abandono de cualquier tipo de monocausalismo y determinismo. Sin suscribir una tesis ingenua de neutralidad tecnológica, podemos decir que las plataformas de las redes sociales son multivalentes y ameritan modalidades de gestión alternativas, con algoritmos que incorporen otros datos y otras instrucciones.

Authors: Macalantong-Casan Faishanie
Published: October 2024

This study examined the epistemological beliefs and information-seeking behavior of 350 first-year Lanao del Sur graduate students. Descriptive statistics were used for frequency, percentage, mean, and standard deviation. Moreover, inferential statistics such as Chi-Square, Analysis of Variance (ANOVA), and regression analysis were used to test the significant difference and relationship between the independent and dependent variables. The salient findings include epistemological beliefs regarding the acquisition of knowledge, which got the highest mean, while the learning speed got the lowest mean. The level of information-seeking behavior was highest in preparing to present. The findings disclosed a significant difference in the information-seeking behavior of the graduate students when grouped according to their characteristics. Epistemological beliefs showed a positive relationship towards information-seeking behavior. This means that the null hypothesis is rejected. In conclusion, most respondents have the highest degree of epistemological beliefs towards acquiring knowledge and have the highest level of information-seeking behavior in preparing to present. Their’ information-seeking behavior varies according to their characteristics, which include sex, age, civil status, course enrolled in, number of hours spent in Internet search, and nature of work. The epistemological beliefs have a bearing on information-seeking behavior. It is then recommended that the graduate students be assisted in developing thorough and productive research skills. Second, schools should encourage librarian and faculty collaboration in teaching research methods to graduate students.

Análisis de la retroalimentación del ciclo normativo
Authors: Badules Iglesias Darío
Published: October 2024

Esta investigación tiene por objeto el estudio del proceso de retroalimentación del ciclo normativo, compuesto esencialmente por dos instituciones que han recibido escasa atención por la doctrina hasta la fecha: la planificación normativa y la evaluación ex post. El cierre del ciclo se considera una etapa fundamental de naturaleza jurídica y política, sin la cual el resto del proceso no puede ser plenamente entendido. Además, ambos instrumentos son también elemento esencial de la mejora de la calidad del Derecho, tanto desde un punto de vista cuantitativo y cualitativo como también formal y material. Para el estudio de cada una de estas dos instituciones se ha utilizado una misma estructura, integrada por los siguientes elementos: caracterización del instrumento, antecedentes normativos en España y en términos comparados, análisis del régimen jurídico español vigente (con referencias a todos los niveles competenciales, pero con especial incidencia en el ámbito estatal), relevancia del instrumento correspondiente en la jurisprudencia; experiencias de utilización del instrumento correspondiente con análisis de casos reales; aportaciones de la doctrina, en especial, críticas desarrolladas y confrontación de las mismas; y propuestas de lege ferenda.

Assisted human reproduction (AHR) is a set of medical techniques that enable human reproduction with assistance, contributing to cases of infertility, advanced age, same-sex couples, independent gestation, and family planning. The main techniques are artificial insemination and in vitro fertilization (IVF). This exploratory-descriptive study investigates the challenges faced by these couples, as well as recent advancements and future perspectives of these techniques. The analysis includes a review of recent literature, focusing on advancements such as improved ovarian stimulation protocols and embryo selection, as well as the impact of emerging technologies. The study also addresses the variable success rates, procedure costs, and ethical issues involved. It is expected that ongoing innovations will improve success rates, reduce risks, and enhance the accessibility of these treatments. Currently, the technique of intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) is widely used. Despite the challenges, AHR has enabled infertile couples to realize their dream of parenthood. With scientific and technological advancements, it is anticipated that AHR techniques will continue to evolve to benefit more and more couples wishing to have children.
AS CAUTELAS NA CONTRATAÇÃO DE CONSULTORIA E/OU ASSESSORIA JURÍDICA OU CONTÁBILSOB A ÉGIDE DA INEXIGIBILIDADE DE LICITAÇÃO À LUZ DA NOVA LEI DE LICITAÇÕES.
Authors: Teddo Luiz Flávio Porfírio
Published: October 2024

This article aims to explore the requirements for contracting consultancy services and/or legal or accounting advice under the auspices of the non-requirement of bidding in light of the New Public Tenders and Contracts Law. It seeks to highlight the precautions that must be observed by the contractor. Through the study of the laws that govern the matter, the position of the Minas Gerais Court of Auditors (TCE-MG), the doctrine and understanding of the Public Ministry on the subject, it was possible to conclude that direct hiring due to unenforceability is an exception to the sovereign rule, which is bidding. Therefore, all contracting requirements must be met concomitantly, in the same way as the “LIMPE” principles in the caput of art. 37 of the Federal Constitution must also be met together. Contracting due to the unenforceability of an object of contracting that would be considered common can be characterized as a fraud against the institute of broad competition and the penalty provided is imprisonment for the person who caused and who benefited from the illegal contracting. Furthermore, it was necessary to emphasize that the TCE-MG is not the only external control body. Other bodies, such as the Public Prosecutor's Office, are independent and may have a different understanding from another body.

Abstract: Objective: To reveal the main challenges that nurses face in the treatment of skin lesions in a hospital environment. Method: MedLine, SciELO, BVS and Google Scholar databases were used. The following health descriptors (DECS) were used: Dermatopathies, Wounds and Injuries, Skin, Soft Tissue Injuries, Infectious Dermatopathies. Priority was given to articles published between 2019 and 2024. A total of 109 articles were found and of these, 18 were selected. Results and Discussions: Nurses should have knowledge about procedures for treating skin lesions, the outcome of untreated surgical wounds, symptoms of infected surgical wounds and possible bacterial and fungal infections. If a patient has better lifestyle habits and a healthy environment, without harmful habits to health, such as alcohol consumption, smoking, drugs, wound healing is faster. Nurses can minimize the risk of surgical wound infection by maintaining an aseptic environment during surgical procedures. The most important part of nursing intervention is knowledge about wounds. Conclusion: Effective treatment facilitates the prevention of hundreds of deaths and reduces costs in long-term treatments. Lack of knowledge and experience of nurses in wound care as well as infection can result in acute or chronic wounds that are untreatable and force the patient to live with lifelong suffering.

A mobilidade urbana emerge como uma questão de grande importância para a sociedade brasileira, sendo objeto de discussões em diversos âmbitos, desde a política até o marketing. Mas afinal, qual a definição de Mobilidade Urbana? Esse tema tão comum é compreendido pela sociedade? Buscando responder questões simples como estas, ainda desconhecidas para grande parte da sociedade rondoniense, este artigo visa preencher uma lacuna crucial nos debates sobre o desenvolvimento urbano da região, bem como definir a importância da mobilidade urbana para o progresso de nossas cidades e apontar os desafios ainda a serem enfrentados para o bem estar da população de nosso estado.  Em Rondônia, a mobilidade urbana é um tema cada vez mais relevante, à medida que nossas cidades crescem e se desenvolvem. No entanto, ainda enfrentamos diversos desafios, como, por exemplo, a falta de opções no transporte público. Mobilidade urbana define-se como a capacidade de se locomover, de ir a outro lugar com rapidez, ou seja: mobilidade urbana é a capacidade do cidadão de se mover com rapidez e agilidade dentro do perímetro urbano, independentemente do tipo de condução utilizado para fazer o trajeto almejado. Esse artigo analisará as dificuldades enfrentadas por cidadãos rondonienses idosos e com deficiência (PCD), para se locomoverem dentro dos limites urbanos e também entre os distritos e municípios através do transporte público atuante no município de Cacoal.  Focaremos nas dificuldades enfrentadas por esses grupos no dia a dia, como falta de ônibus adaptados e ausência de vagas de passe livre suficientes para atender à demanda.
Intimate Partner Violence: Access to Protection Beyond the Pandemic
Authors: Wechsler Rachel
Published: October 2024

Civil protection orders are the most common legal remedy victims pursue in response to intimate partner violence (“IPV”). They are more empowering for victims than the criminal legal system because victims themselves, instead of prosecutors, drive the process, and they offer more flexible and tailored relief. This Article argues that victims should be able to choose how they file petitions and participate in civil protection order hearings, and that judges should be required to honor those preferences absent good cause. This conclusion is driven by two new, original sets of empirical data collected from IPV survivors who have sought civil protection orders and legal services providers who assist victims with navigating the process.
     The data from legal services providers provide a picture of court protective order procedures in jurisdictions across the country from before, during, and in the late stages of the COVID-19 pandemic, once public health restrictions were generally lifted. This complements the rich data about the lived experiences of survivors who sought a protection order against their abuser during the pandemic in one of New York City’s five family courts. 85% of participants in this study are women of color, whose lived experiences are especially important to understand because they comprise a population that is disproportionately impacted by IPV.
     The data indicate that IPV victims have diverse preferences with respect to method of participation in hearings, based on their varying needs, concerns, priorities, and circumstances. The current landscape of procedures across the country largely fails to account for this diversity by mandating a particular participation method or by allowing individual judges to do so in accordance with their own preferences. Based on the research results, this Article argues for codifying “accessible process pluralism” in state protective order statutes. This statutory framework would give petitioners the opportunity to indicate their hearing participation preference on the petition itself and require judges to follow these choices absent good cause, among other accessibility-focused provisions. By harnessing the innovations and lessons from the pandemic, this proposal promotes survivor empowerment and access to justice for both petitioners and respondents.
“And Justice for All”: Modifying the Ninth Circuit’s Feres Doctrine Test to Reduce Service Member Inequity
Authors: Sanguigni Ryan
Published: October 2024

In 1946, the Federal Tort Claims Act (FTCA) waived what was once absolute: federal sovereign immunity for government-caused torts. Nevertheless, the Supreme Court’s Feres doctrine declines to extend the FTCA’s immunity waiver to certain tort claims of military service members. The doctrine precludes petitioners who have suffered an injury incident to their military service from bringing a negligence claim against the government. Its origins are not without controversy and modern courts often have trouble applying it in an equitable manner. In 2021, for example, the U.S. Navy negligently contaminated the drinking water supply of thousands of civilians and service members on the island of Oahu. Although recent case law applying the FTCA to drinking water-related torts indicates a willingness to allow some of these claims to proceed, that willingness has not been extended to service members due to the Feres doctrine. This Note argues that the Feres doctrine is inequitable because it excludes service members’ injuries in an overbroad manner. Further, this Note proposes a modified Feres test based on the Ninth Circuit’s interpretation of the doctrine to promote equity and applies it to the Navy’s actions on Oahu.

يعاين هذا البحث مجموعة من التقنيات الأسلوبية التي زخر بها شعر تميم البرغوثي، كالتناص واستدعاء الموروث الديني، والرمز واستخدام الصورة الفنية، والبنى التركيبية فيه. وقد أبانت عن قدرة الشاعر الفائقة في استثماره للغة وطاقاتها، وتقنية التكرار التي أظهرت انفعالاته وأعطت النص الشعري النغم الموسيقي الجذاب لمشاعر المتلقي، وتقنية التناص قد عكست خلفيات الشاعر الثقافية وخاصة الدينية منها.  إن هذه التقنيات الأسلوبية هي التي شكلت بصمة فارقة في شعر البرغوثي، وجعلته أنموذجاً مختلفاً، حيث لاحظت الدراسة أن تقنية التناص أخذت مساحة مهمة من شعره، وتقنية الصورة الفنية انصهرت فيها انفعالات الشاعر وجعلها مفتاحاً لدخول القصيدة وعالمها، وكشف غوامضها. بدأ البحث بمقدمة وقسم إلى مبحثين: عنون المبحث الأول بتعريف مفهوم التقنيات الأسلوبية والتعريف بحياة تميم البرغوثي وشعره. أما المبحث الثاني فقد عنون بتقنيات الأسلوب في شعره، وقد تناول ثلاثة مطالب: تحدث الأول منها عن التناص واستدعاء الموروث الديني. أما الثاني فقد تناول فكرة الرمز والمشابهة. أما المطلب الثالث فقد عمل على رصد البنى الإيقاعية في شعر الشاعر، وانتهى البحث بخاتمة تتضمن أبرز النتائج التي توصل إليها، وقائمة بالمصادر والمراجع التي استعان بها.
SUBSIDY REMOVAL AND INDEPENDENT OIL MARKETERS’ ACTIVITIES IN THE NIGERIAN DOWNSTREAM SECTOR: A CATALYST FOR PROGRESS
Authors: NKWEDE MARIA-FRIDAY, C , NWAMBEKE CHINEDU GODFREY , CHINEDU NKWAGU LOUIS
Published: October 2024

It is general assumed that the removal of an impediment to the development of a matter can stimulate progress. The Nigerian economy is a mono economy solely dependent on the proceeds from oil for survival Crude oil is the mainstay of the Nigerian economy attracting up to 80% of the country foreign exchange. With its pivotal role in the development of the Nigerian economy this study focuses on accessing the activities of independent oil marketers in the Nigerian downstream oil and gas sector within the context of subsidy removal with the intention of making a case for their scrapping or retention. The marketing function of distribution is at the heart of marketing which borders squarely on logistics. However, the nefarious activities of oil distributors otherwise called independent oil marketers erode this function completely.  The study adopts a thematic research design wherein existing literature on the subject matter were reviewed to discover gaps and outcomes for future research. From the findings, the retention of the independent oil marketers’ activities due to its vital position in the provision of the final consumer is recommended however, an increase in the supply of crude oil within the economy through the revitalization of the dilapidated refineries in Nigeria should also be considered; this would reduce the dependency on oil and development other sectors of the economy.

IMPACT OF STOCK PRICE FLAKINESS ON DEVELOPMENT OF NIGERIAN EXCHANGE GROUP
Authors: ONUNAKA UZOAMAKA FAITH , OKEZIE STELLA
Published: October 2024

This study is aimed to investigate what is happening in the Nigeria Stock Market under its new name, “Nigeria Exchange Group”, with respect to the uncertainty nature of share price behaviour in the capital market. Hence, the month end stock prices of four listed consumer companies from the period January 2017 to December 2022 were used as proxies. The study made use of the Autoregressive Conditional Heteroskedasticity (ARCH) to estimate and find out the presence of the volatility. The study identified the presence of volatility in all the four consumer stock prices used, while the volatility of stock price was then regressed against stock prices to determine their certainty. The results however revealed that out of the four consumer goods companies, only two consumer goods companies’ stock prices were predicted by volatility, while past stock prices predicted current stock prices implying that the market does not follow a random walk. The study therefore recommended that activities of corporate insiders should be critically scrutinized to reduce the predictability of stock prices. Also, that Information should be made available and in clear terms to stakeholders and all investors in particular.

Authors: R Sivakami , BA Meghana
Published: October 2024

The retail industry is growing faster and because of the absence of a basic understanding of the concept, retailers just randomly open shops only based on area and consumer trends (Abikzar, 2017). However, these cyclic and non-cyclic theories of retailing will act as a base to create effective strategies and retail operations to sustain in the market for the long- -term (Avenal & Caprice, 2005). This study explores the concept of cyclic and non-cyclic theories of retailing about productivity, profitability and competitiveness (Buttle, 2007). It analyses the questions regarding whether the theories are practically possible to implement in the present period or not (Higon, 2010). This study is exploratory and focused on qualitatively exploring more factors of the theories. The secondary data is collected from journals, research papers and articles (Burns, 2022). Pricing strategies differ and effect the lifecycle of the retailer (Lazear, 1984). New trends are effective on the lifecycle of the retailer and their sustainable competitive advantage while the conflict creates new opportunities and unique ideas (Moore, 2022). The dynamic environment can bring loss or profit, and proper tools and strategies are to be used.
PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION IN POST-CONFLICT RECONSTRUCTION: UKRAINIAN REALITIES AND INTERNATIONAL EXPERIENCE
Authors: Orel Yurii
Published: October 2024

The problem of post-conflict reconstruction amidst an ongoing war is particularly relevant due to the necessity of balancing two key objectives: the rapid rebuilding of infrastructure essential for the functioning of society and the implementation of reforms aimed at enhancing the state’s investment attractiveness, promoting socio-economic modernization, and introducing modern educational standards. The fulfillment of these tasks is closely tied to the role of public authorities, which serve as the primary agents of the reconstruction process – from assessing the extent of destruction to integrating new practices and mechanisms in the context of socio-economic transformation. The purpose of this article is to examine global practices applicable to the post-war reconstruction of Ukraine, taking into account its specific circumstances. The research methodology combines institutional and structural-functional approaches, enabling an analysis of how institutional transformations impact the implementation of recovery projects. The methods employed include document analysis, case studies, synthesis, and generalization. The study concludes that Ukraine requires both the adoption of global best practices in post-conflict reconstruction and the development of its own mechanisms, tailored to the specific nature of the destruction and occupation. The research also reveals that Ukraine needs differentiated recovery strategies for areas under its control and those still occupied. Additionally, the role of public authorities is emphasized as critical, requiring improvements in management practices and the establishment of safeguards against corruption and abuse. It is further demonstrated that the recovery process necessitates enhancements in both the legislative framework and the organizational structure of public authorities, with a focus on incorporating prioritization and planning principles across different levels of recovery efforts. Lastly, digital technologies are highlighted as instrumental in advancing recovery objectives, as they can streamline administrative processes, improve Ukraine’s investment rating, facilitate the compensation process for war-damaged property, and assist communities in executing recovery projects.

In Ukraine, the war has increased the need for urgent infrastructure restoration. Destroyed facilities need to be modernized for the stability of the economy. Public-private partnerships effectively attract investments by mobilizing resources and distributing risks, which increases management efficiency. However, the implementation of public-private partnerships faces challenges, such as an imperfect regulatory framework and corruption, which need to be addressed for further development. The purpose of the study is to explore the possibilities of developing public-private partnerships in Ukraine, taking into account the socio-economic context and the needs of the population. The object of the study is the mechanisms of interaction between the public and private sectors and their impact on the restoration of Ukraine’s infrastructure. The study is based on scientific works, statistical data and regulations. Methods used: morphological, empirical, statistical, analysis and synthesis, structural and logical analysis. Theoretical approaches to the interpretation of the concepts of “public-private partnership” and “public-private partnership” are generalized, and common and distinctive features are outlined. The peculiarities of the legislative and regulatory framework of public-private partnership in Ukraine are determined. The key advantages and disadvantages of the legislative and regulatory framework for public-private partnerships in Ukraine are outlined. The main indicators of economic development of public-private partnerships in Ukraine for 1990-2023 are presented. The main stages of public-private partnership formation in the time period of 2015-2024 are identified and characterized. The study recommends the main factors of impact of public-private partnerships for the restoration of Ukraine’s infrastructure, including attracting private investment, effective project management, risk sharing, innovation, job creation, improving the quality of services, and attracting international partners.

A “BUROCRACIA DIGITAL”DOS TRIBUNAIS DE CONTAS E A PANDEMIA
Authors: Carvalho Fábio Lins de Lessa , Medeiros Kézia Sayonara Franco Rodrigues
Published: October 2024

A revolução tecnológica é uma realidade que atingiu consideravelmente a Administração Pública contemporânea, sobretudo com a superveniência da pandemia, e, de modo especial, impulsiona os Tribunais de Contas a implementar medidas inovadoras de efetividade de sua atividade-fi m, sem, no entanto, perder de vista padrões normativos e de rotinas que previnem improvisos e práticas descomprometidas com os seus propósitos constitucionais e normativos de modo geral. Dessa forma, combate-se, a um só tempo, a adoção de ideias simplórias eventualmente reproduzidas em normas e julgados, sob o pretexto de se adotar a erroneamente denominada “desburocratização”, as quais não raras vezes se consolidam dissociadas das circunstâncias reais. Sendo assim, este trabalho propõe a necessária abordagem tecnológica na Administração Pública, de modo que a mera formalidade tenda a dar espaço às fi nalidades daquela.
PLACAR ELETRÔNICO, MARKETPLACE E O FUTURO DAS LICITAÇÕES
Authors: Garcia Flávio Amaral , Martins Fernando Barbalho
Published: October 2024

O mercado e a tecnologia do século XXI são signifi cativamente diferentes quando comparados com o momento de formulação da Lei n° 8.666/93. O objetivo deste artigo é mostrar que o sistema de licitações públicas poderá ser impactado por uma tecnologia altamente disruptiva e que poderá modifi car radicalmente esse roteiro quase secular de aquisições públicas. Marcos Juruena Villela Souto já era tomado por um certo inconformismo com o modo de licitar no Brasil e propunha uma nova modalidade de licitação que recebeu a alcunha de “Placar Eletrônico”. A proposta guarda várias similitudes com o desenho do Marketplace. O Marketplace se revela uma “central digital de compra e venda”, um novo meio para congregar fornecedores e clientes, de forma permanente. A sua adoção pode ser uma boa oportunidade para inovação, mas, para realizar integralmente seu potencial, exige-se o abandono das concepções tradicionais de controle formal, viabilizando a participação e o monitoramento contínuos e focados no resultado das iniciativas administrativas.
