A mineração contribui para o crescimento econômico de muitos paí­ses onde esta atividade é desenvolvida. No Brasil, a mineração é um dos principais setores da economia e desempenha um papel importante na balança comercial do paí­s. A Compensação Financeira pela Exploração de Recursos Minerais (CFEM) é um importante meio de receita pública dentro do setor mineral, que deve ser empregado em benefí­cio da comunidade local por meio de investimentos em infraestrutura, saúde, educação e qualidade ambiental. Analisamos a arrecadação do CFEM de 2011 a 2018 nos estados da Amazônia Legal que correspondem à Região Norte do Brasil (Acre, Amapá, Amazonas, Pará, Rondônia, Roraima e Tocantins) e verificamos se as receitas têm reflexo nos indicadores socioeconômicos . Para tanto, utilizamos dados da Agência Nacional de Mineração (NMA), do Índice de Desenvolvimento Humano Municipal (IDHM) e do Índice de Desenvolvimento Municipal da FIRJAN (FMDI). Este estudo mostrou que, entre os estados, o Pará teve a maior receita da CFEM no perí­odo analisado, mas também os menores í­ndices de desenvolvimento humano da Região Norte. Além disso, o principal municí­pio minerador - Parauapebas - apresentou taxas de desenvolvimento moderadas, abaixo do esperado para um estado que recebe a maior quantidade de royalties de mineração, que vêm principalmente da exploração de minério de ferro. Portanto, este estudo confirma uma gestão pública ineficaz no paí­s quanto à utilização das receitas do CFEM na Amazônia brasileira, com contribuição insignificante para o seu desenvolvimento, chamando a atenção para a necessidade de discutir possí­veis soluções para este problema.

Published: November 2021

En Latinoamérica, frente al turismo hegemónico y dinámicas productivas extractivistas surge el turismo de base comunitaria como una opción de desarrollo y estrategia para la defensa de los territorios y culturas pertenecientes a pueblos indí­genas. En este artí­culo mediante un abordaje metodológico que combina técnicas cualitativas, cuantitativas y participativas de investigación, como entrevistas, cuestionarios, observación participante, grupos de discusión, encuestas y conversatorios locales, se examina este tipo de experiencias gestionadas por comunidades mapuche en zonas precordilleranas del sur de Chile. Se caracteriza la oferta de turismo comunitario e identifica la demanda actual y potencial, además de dilucidar oportunidades y obstáculos que confronta. Los resultados indican que para las comunidades mapuche este tipo de turismo promueve economí­as alternativas de pequeña escala a partir de los usos de elementos de su patrimonio cultural; sin embargo, también se enfrentan a problemas relacionados con la ausencia de mecanismos efectivos de participación estatal que permitan a estas comunidades asumir el control de sus formas de vida y desarrollo económico en los territorios que habitan en conformidad con sus propias necesidades, intereses y aspiraciones.
INFLUÊNCIA SOCIOECONÔMICA DO PROGRAMA NACIONAL DE FORTALECIMENTO DA AGRICULTURA FAMILIAR (PRONAF) NO ESTADO DO PARANÁ

Published: November 2021

O objetivo desta pesquisa foi de analisar a influência socioeconômica do PRONAF no Estado do Paraná entre os anos de 2012 e 2017. Para o cumprimento deste objetivo, extraiu-se as variáveis estudadas as quais foram classificadas de acordo com as dimensões produtiva, social e econômica.Â Em seguida, por meio do software estatí­stico SPSS© realizaram-se as correlações, regressões e análises de correspondência entre as variáveis. Isto posto, verificou-se que os recursos do PRONAF não estão sendo direcionados para os municí­pios que apresentam os menores valores do IDH-M, PIB per capita e Índice de Gini. Para as variáveis Bolsa Famí­lia e Valor Bruto da Produção (VBP) não houve relação direta com o volume de contratos do PRONAF. Para o Programa de Aquisição de Alimentos (PAA), de modo geral, a correlação entre o valor médio anual dos contratos e a média anual do PAA é positiva, porém fraca. Só foi possí­vel comprovar o impacto do PRONAF sobre o VBP no Paraná quando realizada a regressão linear múltipla, envolvendo o Valor médio dos contratos do PRONAF, a média anual dos contratos do PRONAF, o IDH-M e o PIB per capita, o que demonstra que a dimensão social foi que a apresentou maior relação positiva entre o PRONAF e os indicadores socioeconômicos.
URBANIZAÇÃO, TENDÊNCIAS AMBIENTAIS E SOCIOECONÔMICAS EM UMA ZONA COSTEIRA SOB O ENFOQUE DO ANTROPOCENO: 1940-2020 (BACIA HIDROGRÁFICA DA BAÍA DE GUANABARA, RIO DE JANEIRO, BRASIL)

Este estudo tem como objetivo reconstruir a urbanização da região da Bacia Hidrográfica da Baí­a de Guanabara (BHB) no perí­odo entre 1940 e 2020, e seus corolários ambientais e socioeconômicos. Para tanto, foram empregados dados de sensoriamento remoto, indicadores de desenvolvimento sustentável e técnicas de geoprocessamento. A falta de dados de sensoriamento remoto de 1940 a 1960 e de estatí­sticas oficiais para 2020 foram projetadas usando abordagens matemáticas e estatí­sticas. Os resultados demonstram que, de 1940 a 2020, as áreas urbanas aumentaram 5,3% ao ano, a interferência direta das áreas urbanas nos recursos de água doce selecionados aumentou 6,1% ao ano e a população urbana aumentou cerca de 4,6% ao ano. Os resultados também demonstram que o GBHB carece de instalações de saneamento, com menos de 50% dos domicí­lios com acesso a esgoto, o que explica as altas concentrações de matéria orgânica nas águas doces, 11,2 mg.l-1. A desigualdade de renda e a pobreza são evidentes na região. A relação entre o Salário Mí­nimo e o Produto Interno Bruto per capita foi estimada em cerca de 0,2 (estimativa do valor médio para 1940-2020). O estudo conclui que a urbanização não planejada e polí­ticas públicas ineficientes empobrecem o meio ambiente e a condição humana em tendência crescente, tornando o GBHB um caso local interessante para verificar elementos da teoria do Antropoceno.
DINÂMICAS INFORMAIS DAS AGROINDÚSTRIAS FAMILIARES NO TERRITÓRIO: O CASO DO MUNICÍPIO DE SANTA CRUZ DO SUL – RS/BRASIL
Authors: Karnopp Erica , Weber Jaime Miguel
Published: November 2021

Este artigo teve por intuito analisar as condições concretas e contextuais que influenciam os agricultores familiares a "apostar" na informalidade dos processos agroindustriais. Uma das alternativas que vem sendo desenvolvida ao longo da história é o processamento de matérias-primas, especialmente de alimentos, que se constitui a partir do saber-fazer transmitido de geração a geração entre os agricultores familiares. Para a efetivação empí­rica desta pesquisa foi considerado o território de Santa Cruz do Sul. A pesquisa utilizou como método os pressupostos teóricos enraizados nas bases do materialismo histórico dialético. Desta forma, assinala conflitos e contradições das atividades informais de processamento de alimentos como uma relevante referência sociocultural e econômica para o território. Ademais, faz uma análise das exigências sanitárias e as tradições de produção, processamento, consumo e comercialização de alimentos. Foi possí­vel verificar que a informalidade das agroindústrias familiares não é simplesmente uma situação transitória. O que dá sustentabilidade, autonomia e viabilidade é o sistema de produção, de processamento da matéria prima e a comercialização diversificada, como estratégias de produção e reprodução das famí­lias. No contexto desta pesquisa, a informalidade se apresenta como resistência. Ela se manifesta como um fator de reflexão frente às transformações provocadas pelos mecanismos globais de dominação.

Authors: Silva Narjara , Issberner Liz-Rejane , Braga Tiago
Published: November 2021

No contexto da crise ambiental, o presente estudo teve como objetivo identificar e analisar o potencial de ecoinovação na produção agroecológica no Brasil, mediante o mapeamento da procuraÂ por informações tecnológicas da parte dos usuários na plataforma de acesso ao Serviço Brasileiro de Respostas Técnicas (SBRT). Para tanto, optou-se pelo uso da metodologia de investigação quantitativa, a partir do levantamento de respostas técnicas e dossiês técnicos relacionados às palavras-chave "sustentabilidade" , "desenvolvimento sustentável" e "meio ambiente" na coleção do segmento da agricultura, que contém 2068 documentos técnicos. Como resultados da pesquisa, foram recuperados 79 respostas e dossiês, o equivalente a 3,8% do total da amostra documental, tendo sido acessados por 1628 usuários, representando 41% do número total de acessos únicos à coleção. Com relação à informação tecnológica contida nesses documentos, 38% estão associados à agricultura orgânica, enquanto 24% foram categorizados como "práticas alternativas de agricultura" . Os resultados demonstram o potencial de ecoinovação em agroecologia, mas também revelam a baixa contribuição do SBRT para a temática e o perfil empresarial estudados. Diante disso, sugere-se uma avaliação acurada da questão da ecoinovação na agroecologia, a partir de uma pesquisa de campo, cujo estudo irá contribuir para um melhor entendimento da produção agroecológica no Brasil e subsidiar estratégias futuras no âmbito do SBRT, em prol do engajamento dos pequenos negócios agroecológicos aos compromissos assumidos em acordos globais no enfrentamento da crise ambiental.

Published: November 2021

A ascensão do coworking como formato organizacional alinhado a economia do compartilhamento gera a necessidade de compreender os fatores que expressam seu modelo operacional que tende a uma filosofia de trabalho. Assim, este trabalho objetivou analisar quais os fatores operacionais que se alinham com a filosofia de coworking encontrados em espaços que atuam no nordeste brasileiro.Â A pesquisa é qualitativa, sendo um estudo descritivo-exploratório com uma amostra de 55 coworkings, situados nos nove estados do nordeste brasileiro. Uma análise de conteúdo analisou três dimensões para o funcionamento de espaços de coworking. Os resultados indicaram que estes espaços exigem aprimoramentos, pois atendem na média de 60% dos fatores indicados pelo modelo de hierarquia dos elementos operacionais para coworking. A melhor pontuação foi na dimensão Gestão do coworking, enquanto que o atendimento dos fatores relacionados a dimensão Apoio a Gestão e dimensão Gestão de Membros foram mais baixos. Os indicadores menos atendidos foram relacionados a formação de alianças e, instalações e dispositivos de soluções aos coworkers. Estes resultados indicam duplas perdas, para o coworker e para o empreendedor do estabelecimento, pois coloca em risco a própria oferta de serviços adequados a filosofia demandada por quem procura este tipo de estrutura operacional.

Authors: Costa Marcio Gomes da , Santos Moacir José dos
Published: November 2021

A agricultura familiar além de desempenhar função social relevante na vida das pessoas, também representa uma parcela significativa na composição da economia, no Brasil. Frente a isso, com a aplicação e aperfeiçoamento de ferramentas que possibilitam uma melhoria na produção nesse setorÂ da economia, podem ser alcançados bons resultados. Um recurso que poderá possibilitar esses resultados é o capital social. A objetivo do presente trabalho é a identificação de aspectos e caracterí­sticas considerados como elementos que levam à formação do capital social na comunidade rural estudada, no municí­pio de São Raimundo das Mangabeiras, quanto a organização coletiva. Foi realizada pesquisa na comunidade Assentamento Nova Descoberta no municí­pio de São Raimundo das Mangabeiras, localizado na mesorregião Sul do Maranhão, microrregião da Chapada das Mangabeiras. Investigou-se o capital social existente entre os agricultores familiares na referida comunidade mediante pesquisa do tipo exploratória com abordagem qualitativa, e como instrumento para realização dos trabalhos foi usado o Questionário Integrado para Medir Capital Social – QI-MCS do Grupo Temático sobre Capital Social do Banco Mundial (2003). Encontrou-se um grau elevado de capital social, o que possibilitou a organização coletiva para o alcance dos objetivos da comunidade.
REDISCUTINDO OS SIGNIFICADOS DO URBANISMO
Authors: Ultramari Clovis , Daher Ariadne dos Santos , Machado Marcio
Published: November 2021

Este artigo tem como referência a sua versão anterior, publicada na revista Pós FAUUSP, de 2009, sob o tí­tulo Significados do Urbanismo4. Passada uma década, o presente texto transcreve partes doÂ anterior, agrega novas referências autorais, rediscute seus conceitos e busca assimilar temas emergentes não discutidos à época.O texto discute os significados possí­veis que se tem para o conceito do termo urbanismo e daqueles que lhe são próximos, chegando mesmo a serem confundidos. Para tanto, aborda também suas relações com o planejamento, a gestão e o desenho urbano. Neste percurso, permeando toda a narrativa, está o conceito de cidade, objeto final dos demais. Assim, este artigo ressalta as similaridades e as diferenças entre esses entendimentos e o fato de serem, muitas vezes, usados indistintamente. Os argumentos são construí­dos a partir de dois pressupostos: o de uma maior abrangência da atuação do urbanismo, o qual incorporaria o planejamento urbano; e o de uma distinção conceitual dessas duas ciências (ou práticas?) poder ser feita a partir de uma maior ou menor aproximação da arte e da arquitetura. Quanto maior a aproximação, mais próximo da faceta de intervenção fí­sica do urbanismo estamos; quanto mais distantes, mais claro fica o conceito de planejamento urbano. O artigo tem caráter provocativo e está consciente da polêmica que exercí­cios de conceituação geram, e sua estrutura conta com uma introdução que ressalta a dificuldade de uma abordagem epistemológica ou conceitual e partes onde se estabelecem semelhanças e distinções dos conceitos tratados. Sua conclusão, propositadamente, resguarda-se de posicionamentos definitivos e propõe a continuidade da discussão.
Importance and features of the deposit policy of my commercial banks
Authors:   Western Caspian University, Huseynova Sama
Published: November 2021

The deposit policy of a commercial bank must meet the following requirements; economic expediency; competitiveness; lack of internal contradictions. When looking at the essence of the deposit banking policy, it is necessary to touch upon such issues as the objects and subjects of the deposit policy, the real principles of its formation, the boundaries of the deposit policy. In practice, the deposit policy of any commercial bank includes the following elements: customers, government and commercial entities. The savings policy is aimed at lending temporary free funds to creditors, as well as the ability of commercial banks to make efficient use of available resources for active operations. As part of these measures, any bank must take into account the specifics of all types of deposits used. The main feature of the deposit policy here is that the initiative in transactions does not belong to the bank, but to the customer, and therefore it is impossible to manage the operations entirely by the bank.

THE POLITICO-RELIGIOUS DILEMMA OF THE YASUKUNI SHRINE
Authors: Masa’aki Shinya
Published: November 2021

This article concerns itself with the relation of the Yasukuni Shrine with the state in prewar and postwar Japan. It focuses on the agencies involved, that is, on organizations and individuals that represent this institution or relate to it in other ways. Its main goal is to clarify the situation of the Yasukuni Shrine, particularly the dilemma it faces. Being rooted in a diverse Shinto tradition and established by the imperialist Meiji Government, the prewar Yasukuni Shrine was a representative institution of stateShinto. Its situation alters drastically after WW II, when Japan was induced to shift its politics toward a democratic parliamentary state. The core of the Yasukuni problem is that this shrine is a memorial for all Japanese war dead that provides exclusive Shinto memorial services, within which religion, patriotism, and nationalism coalesce into one and the same attitude. Yasukuni’s dilemma concerns the adoption of either a religious or a political ideal, but the Yasukuni authorities apparently want both. The paper briefly relates the origin of the Yasukuni Shrine and discusses the religious nature of state-Shinto, the translation problem of the word religion into Japanese, and finally, Yasukuni’s postwar development, highlighting the role of various actors in this social practice.
SOKA GAKKAI AS A CHALLENGE TO JAPANESE SOCIETY AND POLITICS
Authors: Michiaki Okuyama
Published: November 2021

A new Buddhist group Soka Gakkai started its movement in 1930. After World War II it grew rapidly to claim more than eight million families as its members in Japan in 2005. Soka Gakkai International (SGI), which Soka Gakkai organized as its international network in 1975, now extends to over 190 countries and areas worldwide, claiming twelve million members globally, according to their own calculations. Soka Gakkai started a domestic political movement in the early 1960s, establishing Komeito in 1964 that would mostly keep the third position between the Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) and the Social Democratic Party throughout the Cold War era. When the political scene in Japan saw a restructuring process in the 1990s, Komeito joined in the coalition government with the LDP in 1999. The general election in 2009, however, turned out to be a failure both to the LDP and Komeito, while the Democratic Party of Japan won the election to lead the new government, almost for the first time since the establishment of LDP in 1955. This paper tries to situate Soka Gakkai and Komeito in the context of Japanese politics and society and attempts an evaluation of the current situation after the 2009 election.
RELIGION AND POLITICS IN BELGIUM: FROM AN INSTITUTIONALIZED MANIFEST CATHOLIC TO A LATENT CHRISTIAN PILLAR
Authors: Dobbelaere Karel
Published: November 2021

After having described the historical basis of the process of pillarization in Belgium, the author explains the emergence of the Catholic pillar as a defence mechanism of the Catholic Church and the Catholic leadership to protect the Catholic flock from secularization. He describes the different services the Catholic pillar was offering for its members and the development of Belgium as a state based on three pillars: the catholic, the socialist and the liberal one that were all three institutionalized. This structure meant that Belgium was rather a segregated country that was vertically integrated. In the sixties of last century, the pillar was confronted with a growing secularization of the population, which forced the leadership of the pillar to adapt the collective consciousness: the Catholic credo, values and norms were replaced by so-called typical values of the Gospel integrated in what is called a Socio-Cultural Christianity. Under the impact of the changing economic situation, the politicization of the Flemish question and the emergence of Ecologist parties, the Christian pillar had to adapt its services and is now based on clienteles rather than members. Only in the Flemish part of Belgium is it still an institutionalized pillar.
TELEVANGELISM AND THE SOCIO-POLITICAL MOBILIZATION OF PENTECOSTALS IN PORT HARCOURT METROPOLIS: A KAP SURVEY
Authors: Okon Godwin
Published: November 2021

This study was borne out of the need to ascertain the extent to which televangelists in Port Harcourt; deploy media content towards issues that border on socio-political development. The primary objective was to empirically determine if a correspondence exists between advocacy by televangelists and compliance by Pentecostals as manifested in Knowledge, Attitude and Practice (KAP). The study necessitated triangulation with the Weighted Mean Score (WMS) as the basis for quantitative analysis. Findings revealed televangelism to revolve around the pastor (p), message (m) and church (c). Though an association link was found between ideologies expressed by televangelists and adoption by Pentecostals, this link only found expression in the concepts of secularism and fundamentalism. Survey also revealed a dismal rating of televangelism as regards socio-political mobilization. The chi-square test showed the x2 computed to be greater than the x2 critical thus showing a disconnect between knowledge on the potential benefits of televangelism and the deployment of such benefits towards socio-economic mobilization by televangelists. It was therefore recommended that televangelism should not be used for self aggrandizement and church growth but should complement the socio-political mobilization process. It was further recommended that a policy framework should be put in place to ensure compliance by televangelists.
FAITH-BASED SCHOOLING AND THE POLITICS OF EDUCATION: A CASE STUDY OF ONTARIO, CANADA
Authors: MacLellan Duncan
Published: November 2021

This paper examines the political intersection of religion and education in Ontario, Canada, from1840 to 2011. Currently, Ontario is Canada’s most ethno culturally diverse province, and Toronto, its capital city, is one of the most multicultural cities in the world. The issue of public funding of religious education in Ontario has emerged at varying times in the province’s history. In particular, selective Ontario provincial election campaigns are discussed in relation to exploring the degree to which public funding of religious education and religious accommodation emerged as political issues. Social mobilization theory provides a rich and varied conceptual lens through which to examine decisions that have led to the current place of state funding of religious education in Ontario.

Authors:   Universidade Federal de Pelotas, Maria Fonseca Bohns Neiva
Published: November 2021

Este trabalho investiga a produção artística de algumas mulheres no período da crise sanitária que ficou conhecida como Gripe Espanhola, no início do século XX, no Brasil. Foram analisados, a partir do material historiográfico disponível, os casos das artistas Julieta de França (1870-1951), Nicolina Vaz (1874-1941), Anita Malfatti (1889-1964), Tarsila do Amaral (1885-1973), Georgina de Albuquerque (1885-1962) e Angelina Agostini (1888-1973). O foco do estudo incidiu sobre as interrupções ou continuidades das atividades artísticas no período estudado, tão atípico, em função do necessário isolamento social, e sobre as possíveis consequências para suas carreiras individuais. Neste sentido, o trabalho discute as desigualdades sociais e de gênero, sublinhando a importância do “ateliê como refúgio” e como lugar de segurança em períodos de crise sanitária.

Com o objetivo de tentar me aproximar do universo de leitura dos professores e alunos da Academia de Belas Artes - depois de 1890 Escola Nacional de Belas Artes – analiso a coleção dos livros da Biblioteca de Obras Raras da EBA / UFRJ. Dessa longa listagem, recorto apenas os livros de História da Arte e os editados no século XIX e me concentro nos autores mais ligados às ideias influentes no final desse século: de um lado, o positivismo; por outro lado, o realismo e o naturalismo. Fica bastante evidente a ressonância desse conjunto de ideias na teoria e na prática dos críticos, historiadores e artistas do período.

Which Linguistic Model for Brittany?
Authors: Manchec-German Gary
Published: November 2021

In attempting to safeguard a severely threatened language such as Breton (which really means safeguarding the threatened language communities and the local economies which sustain them), are we to promote the traditionally transmitted language varieties spoken naturally by the quasi totality of the population, or do we promote the new standardized, unified language now supported and spoken by much of the media, the majority of schoolteachers and young learners of the language? The debate could perhaps be summarized as follows: Which linguistic model is best suited to encouraging the preservation of the Breton language: a “bottom-up” approach (advocating the renewed support for the dialectal but sociolinguistically stigmatized varieties of language spoken by over 200,000 traditional speakers) or a “top-down” approach (endorsing a standard language conceived and elaborated by an intellectual elite which offers the advantage of uniformity and thus enhanced mutual comprehension among learners, but which is often frowned upon and viewed as unnatural by traditional speakers)? These questions are certainly not new.

Taking into consideration the sociolinguistic and socioeconomic motivations of older speakers who have for the most part rejected their native dialects in favour of French, the impetus is clearly on the side of those who are adopting the new Breton norm, even though these speakers are almost exclusively learners with French as their native language. The debate over what constitutes acceptable Breton is still raging today in Brittany and is so intense and passionate at times that a balanced discussion among specialists can be difficult. Having said this, the case of Breton is not an isolated one and the lessons gleaned here could benefit other threatened-language communities worldwide. The options of language revivalists and language planners must thus take into account all the possible parameters and it may be that no single solution is preferable. In this paper, I argue that the production of reference tools in the form of six or seven dialect dictionaries and corresponding dialect grammars covering all of Western Brittany would go a long way to fulfilling the needs of a vast, neglected segment of the Breton-speaking population.

COVID-19 in 2020 brought challenges to the Brazilian public health system with an emerging virus with respiratory contagion called SARS-CoV-2. There are few studies in Brazil and in some countries, on the increased incidence of certain viral respiratory infections, including H1N1 and coronavirus and their association with low levels of vitamin D, zinc and iron. The aim of this study was to demonstrate that the deficit of vitamin D, zinc and iron has an impact on the infectious process of patients with COVID-19 and to establish new forms of prevention for the worsening of COVID-19 in the human body. Data were collected from medical records and test results from patients being followed up during the treatment period for COVID-19. Patients with low blood levels of vitamin D, zinc and iron during the treatment period of COVID-19 had a higher percentage of worsening and complications requiring hospitalization in intensive care beds. The ingestion of vitamin D, zinc and iron in the treatment period of patients with COVID-19 in addition to being an immunological protector against SARS-CoV-2 and alleviating the process of worsening the disease can also act as a biomarker in cases of this disease.

Authors: AlDousari Shafi
Published: November 2021

Background: During this coronavirus outbreak, online teaching and learning have become highly common in medical education. The majority of students and professors have transitioned to this comparatively modern online learning model. While faculty members found the transition to online education to be overwhelming, they persevered. Aim: study aims to investigate the Kuwait Medical educational sector's capacities and obstacles in transitioning the education system to the online form. Method: This study used a close-ended survey questionnaire constructed on Google Forms and distributed to the participants via e-mail. The study used an online Google form for formulating the questionnaire survey, which was later sent to the participants via e-mail. Results: The results showed that most of the faculty members (53%) were satisfied with online learning. The most prominent difficulty emphasized by the faculty members (35%) was network vulnerability n online teaching. The majority of the faculty members (45%) agreed that transitioning to remote teaching is a big challenge and that there is inequality for different technology uses (56%). Conclusion: Online learning has been increasingly relevant in medical education in recent months. It has its own set of benefits for improving students' knowledge and skills, and it may be used as an instructional tool in medical school.
Complications of bronchial thermoplasty using laryngeal mask: case series
Authors: Sanabria Botello Carlos Fernando , Fernández Trujillo Ángela María , Palacios Isabel , Ocampo Carmen Elisa
Published: November 2021

Severe asthma affects more than 250 million people and represents high healthcare costs. Bronchial thermoplasty is a relatively new technique in interventional pulmonology for managing this condition. The procedure is done under general anesthesia and the patients are mostly ASA II and III; therefore, the anesthesia plan must be safe. The purpose of the article is to describe the anesthetic technique used (general anesthesia and laryngeal mask) and the immediate and early complications of the procedure. Four patients were included, each undergoing three sessions. The complications during and immediately after the procedure, as well as the early complications (up to seven days post-procedure) that could have required hospital management were discussed. In three of the sessions at least one acute bronchospasm event presented, but only one patient required hospital admission for more than 24 hours. Experience suggests that thermoplasty may be safely conducted under general anesthesia and laryngeal mask.
Agile Human Capital Management: Assumptions and Instruments
Authors: Juchnowicz Marta , Wolińska-Skuza Agnieszka
Published: November 2021

One of the conditions for effective management in a VUCA world is organizational agility. It requires changes in the implementation of the personnel function so it is oriented at agile human capital management. The article aims to present the assumptions as well as two key attributes of Agile HRM: the leadership model and creating an agile mindset. These features create specific consequences for the human capital management process. Due to the multidimensionality of the HRM process, the study of the analysis of changes was limited to two areas: employee acquisition (recruitment) and preformance management. The article is a theoretical reflection, illustrated by the results of secondary research and examples of good practices.
The Differential Effect of Transformational Leadership and Job Satisfaction on Various Performance Measures in a Polish Consulting Company
Authors: Ujma Michał
Published: November 2021

The aim of the paper is to provide an answer to the question of how transformational leadership and employee satisfaction affect various performance measures, where employee satisfaction is considered a significant moderator of the relationships between transformational leadership and organizational performance. The data was collected from 164 employees working on 32 teams in international recruitment and selection agency departments located in Poland. What was identified was that transformational leadership and employee satisfaction affect organizational performance differently. In particular, transformational leadership allows the achieving of long–term organizational goals, such as office performance, which includes yearly and three–year office KPIs. The effect of employee satisfaction on organizational performance was strongly seen in the short–term perspective—in the quarterly KPIs. The full moderating role of employee satisfaction was only observed between transformational leadership and quarterly KPIs. The study concludes with theoretical and practical implications and future research directions.
Absencja chorobowa pracowników a zarządzanie efektywnością pracy w erze Przemysłu 4.0
Authors: Striker Małgorzata
Published: November 2021

Zachowania absencyjne pracowników są zaliczane obok fluktuacji do zachowań obniżających efektywność pracy. Organizacje podejmują zatem szereg działań zmierzających do minimalizacji poziomu korzystania przez zatrudnionych ze zwolnień lekarskich. Stosowanie poszczególnych narzędzi jest uzależnione między innymi od warunków pracy. Stąd też środowisko pracy w erze Przemysłu 4.0, gdy rozwiązania technologiczne zmieniają definicję obecności w pracy, powoduje również konieczność redefinicji pojęcia niezdolności do pracy i absencji oraz zrewidowania rozwiązań w kształtowaniu zachowań absencyjnych pracowników. Celem artykułu było wskazanie specyfiki absencji chorobowej pracowników w warunkach Przemysłu 4.0 i uwzględniania tych zachowań w zarządzaniu efektywnością pracy. Artykuł ma charakter koncepcyjny. Przeprowadzono w nim analizę literatury według przyjętych słów kluczowych: zachowania absencyjne, absencja chorobowa, Przemysł 4.0, zarządzanie efektywnością pracy, performance management. Na podstawie przeprowadzonej analizy przedstawiono zmiany w podejściu do obecności w pracy i absencji pracowniczej, wynikające z rozwiązań w organizacji i warunkach pracy w erze Przemysłu 4.0.
Promocja zdrowia jako obszar CSR – zakres i adekwatność wdrożonych działań z perspektywy pracowników przewlekle chorych
Authors: Springer Agnieszka , Widzińska Wiktoria
Published: November 2021

W artykule podjęto tematykę promocji zdrowia w przedsiębiorstwach z perspektywy pracowników dotkniętych chorobami przewlekłymi. Obserwacja rosnącego zainteresowania pracodawców koncepcją społecznej odpowiedzialności biznesu (corporate social responsibility – CSR) zdeterminowała analizę wyników badań z podziałem na przedsiębiorstwa o wdrożonym oraz niewdrożonym CSR. Badania na próbie 197 pracowników dotkniętych chorobami przewlekłymi przeprowadzono w 2020 roku metodą sondażu diagnostycznego z wykorzystaniem kwestionariusza ankiety w formule online. Jedną trzecią badanych stanowiły osoby pracujące w organizacjach, które realizują CSR. Analiza badań własnych pozwoliła na wskazanie zależności pomiędzy wdrożeniem CSR a adekwatnością i skalą działań podejmowanych w ramach promocji zdrowia oraz na identyfikację tych przedsięwzięć, których podjęcie stanowi dla pracowników z chorobami przewlekłymi największe wsparcie w środowisku pracy.
Wyniki badań wskazały, iż potrzeby pracowników z chorobami przewlekłymi są zaspokajane tylko w niewielkim stopniu przez przedsiębiorstwa, a najbardziej oczekiwanymi przez pracowników działaniami prozdrowotnymi są: pakiet opieki medycznej, elastyczny czas pracy oraz możliwości osobistego zaangażowania się w modyfikację warunków pracy. W 6 z 12 badanych przedsięwzięć potrzeby pracowników są częściej zaspokajane w organizacjach realizujących koncepcję CSR. Oznacza to, iż jej wdrożenie istotnie zwiększa aktywność organizacji w sferze promocji zdrowia, a co więcej – podejmowane działania w większym stopniu odpowiadają na potrzeby osób z chorobami przewlekłymi

Authors: Jeruszka Urszula
Published: November 2021

Celem artykułu jest wykazanie, że wykorzystywanie technologii informacyjno-komunikacyjnych w samokształceniu pracowników nie stanowi zagrożenia dla humanizacji pracy samokształceniowej. Realizacja tak postawionego celu wymagała zwrócenia uwagi na specyfikę procesu samokształcenia z wykorzystaniem nowych technologii, przejawy i niedostatki jego humanizacji oraz jego miejsce w praktykach zarządzania zasobami ludzkimi. W artykule, na podstawie analizy literatury oraz wypowiedzi pracujących studentów na temat wyzwań wobec samokształcenia pracowników, porównano „stare” i „nowe” wyzwania, sformułowano główne problemy humanizacji samokształcenia pracowników. W większości odnoszą się one do sposobu komunikowani się oraz poznawania wiedzy

The paper explores the institute of unreliable VAT payer (Section 106a of Act No. 235/2004 Coll., on Value Added Tax), from the perspective of the issue of imposing a sanction type of inclusion of a subject in a blacklist. The paper contains a comparison of its legislation with the historical legislation of the list of persons prohibited from performing public contracts (Section 120a of Act No. 137/2006, on Public Procurement, effective until 30 September 2016), and with the current legislation of private registers of debtors (Section 20z of Act No. 634/1992 Coll., on Consumer Protection), specifically with negative registers of the SOLUS association. The aim of the paper is to identify partial moments of the legal regulation of compared institutes, which are common to these institutes, as well as those in which they differ.

In addition to the standard method of taxation, the Value Added Tax Act regulates two specific methods introduced in order to reduce VAT fraud – the regime of transferred tax liability (reverse charge) and the so-called special method of securing of the tax. In the following text, the specifics of the value added tax administration depending on the statutory (or voluntarily chosen) method of taxation and the related effects on the collection of public budgets will be pointed out. An integral part is pointing out the effects of the chosen method of taxation on tax subjects, either on the part of the supplier or on the part of the customer.

In order for the state to fulfil its functions, it needs to approach the balance of funds correctly. It is mainly view in the state budget. The goal of the state should be primarily a surplus budget, but at least revenues should cover the expenditures part. The state’s revenues come mainly from taxes. In crises, where state expenditures are set unsustainably in the future, it is more than ever the question of imposing new taxes. Even before the Covid-19 pandemic, a new Digital Tax was in the legislative process. It has been already introduced in other countries, especially in Europe. This chapter aims to analyse the introduction of the Digital Tax in the Czech Republic and its problematic aspects.
Reshaping Spirituality: Indigenous Decolonial Struggles for Justice in Mexico
Authors: Marcos Sylvia ,   Caribbean Philosophical Association
Published: November 2021

Departing from Christian spiritualities, even those emerging from feminist theologians and Latin American eco feminist liberation theologies, the indigenous women´s movements started to propose their own “indigenous spirituality.” In some key meetings like the “First Summit of Indigenous Women of the Americas” and at other later meetings, their basic documents, final declarations, collective proposals have a spiritual component that departs from the influences of the largely Christian Catholic background of the country. Their discourses, demands, and live presentations have also expressed this religious background. Through several years of interactions and sharing with women in the indigenous worlds of Mexico, the author has systematized a series of characteristics that emanate from a particular cosmovision and cosmogony. These religious references to an indigenous spirituality are inspired on ancestral references re-created today as the women struggle for social justice. The inspiration for their social justice fight is often anchored in these beliefs and practices. It is a reference to worlds of ritual, liturgy, and collective worship that—although being often attired in Catholic and Christian imagery—reveal a deep disjuncture with Christianity and affirm their epistemic particularity. Working from these “cracks of epistemic differences” (Mignolo 2006) the author presents them as a de-colonial effort. Women are actively proposing to recapture ancestral spiritualities to decolonize both the religious universes they were forced to adopt during the historical colonial invasion as well as from the influences of a neo-colonial feminist frame for gender equality.
P4C as Microcosm of Civil Society
Authors: Saner Senem ,   Philosophy Documentation Center
Published: November 2021

Philosophy for Children (P4C) practice and its distinctive method of cultivating communities of philosophical inquiry model two main functions of democratic civil society. Civil society makes explicit the implicit agreement of communal membership and common belonging and mediates the diverse interests and values of community members. An essential principle of civil society that underlies these two functions is that its members possess intrinsic and political equality, fostering a unique space for civic engagement and democratic will-formation. P4C programs enact these functions of civil society: as children encounter philosophical questions, speak their minds, listen to one another, disagree, and puzzle out the reasons for their disagreements, the main aim is that they engage in collaborative inquiry. I argue that free and open-access P4C programs at public libraries are microcosms of civil society in the serendipitous accidental coming together of strangers. These programs enact civil society insofar as they motivate and exercise civic virtues of collaboration and critical reflection by practicing community of inquiry through self-correcting dialogue.
Phlebotomy Staffing
Authors: Novis David A. , Long Thomas , Blond Barbara , Tworek Joseph , Talbert Michael L.
Published: November 2021

Context.—

Laboratory directors are tasked with staffing laboratories in a manner that provides adequate services and maintains economic sustainability.

Objective.—

To determine the national normative rates of phlebotomy staffing and the types of laboratory operational characteristics that may be associated with the magnitude of those staffing levels.

Design.—

Study participants provided data on inpatient and outpatient phlebotomy sites, including the numbers of patients receiving phlebotomy services, phlebotomy staff, and billable tests. From these data, we calculated performance indicators including the numbers of phlebotomies/phlebotomy full-time equivalent staff, outpatient phlebotomy visits/full-time equivalent staff, and average outpatient phlebotomy wait times. Participants also completed a survey of their laboratory phlebotomy practices.

Results.—

This study was conducted during the third quarter of 2017. Forty-two institutions participated in this study, providing eligible results for 40 selected inpatient sites and 70 selected outpatient sites. The ratios for all performance indicators spanned between 3.3- and 142-fold. The median average outpatient phlebotomy wait time was 8 minutes. None of the performance indicators were associated with the practice variables that we chose to test.

Conclusions.—

The distribution of phlebotomy staffing performance indicators among the laboratories participating in this study varied widely, even among those groups performing similar volumes of tests.
