Talent measurement: A holistic model and routes forward
Authors: Lee Gregory J. 
Published: July 2018

Orientation: Talent measurement is a critical input to talent management (TM). Involving the application of measurement methodologies in order to determine the current and longer-term potential, competencies and contribution of employees and their roles, talent measurement is a growing field of interest in human resources.Research purpose: This article reviews and integrates the practice of talent measurement, including developing a model of talent measurement, rooting the practice in theory and suggesting several relatively unexplored aspects of talent measurement that may have potential for improvement or controversy.Motivation for the study: Talent measurement has not been adequately discussed and critiqued.Research approach/design and method: A theory review and development approach is taken in this article.Main findings: A holistic model for talent measurement is presented, including elements that have not received much prior attention such as theoretical foundations, the practicalities of including a role element, the advisability of using talent pools, the question of whether talent measures or status should be revealed to employees, the integration of talent pools with diversity or transformation imperatives, and others.Practical/managerial implications: Managers who employ TM should benefit from this review and set of challenges regarding the practice of talent measurement.Contribution/value-add: Although TM has been extensively discussed, the specific measurement options involved have been less well examined. Development of a holistic model and identification of outstanding controversies within it provide value to practitioners and to the evolution of TM.

Abstract. In this study, we evaluated the photocatalytic activities of analytical reagent (AR) grade ZnO, TiO2, and SnO2 to identify a low-cost photocatalyst for dye degradation. The obtained samples of ZnO, TiO2, and SnO2 were characterised by X-ray diffractogram (XRD), scanning electron microscope imaging, and UV-VIS diffuse reflectance spectroscopy. The decolourisation of three structurally diverse dyes, namely crystal violet, basic blue, and methyl red under solar irradiation, was used to evaluate the photocatalytic activities of three metal oxides. The photocatalytic activities of the received three metal oxides were tested with the photocatalytic degradation of dyes and compared with Degussa P-25. Dye solutions with each metal oxide at initial pH 9 were subjected to irradiation under sunlight and monitored for up to the stage of complete decolourisation. The results indicate that ZnO exhibited the highest photocatalytic activity as compared to TiO2 and SnO2 as well as that of Degussa P-25 (TiO2). The photocatalytic dye decolourisation rates with ZnO were 1.14–1.35, 1.70–3.1, and 4–8.5 times higher than those of the Degussa P-25, TiO2, and SnO2, respectively. The percentage COD removal was studied for ZnO and partial removal was observed at the decolourisation stage. To enhance photocatalytic activity of AR grade ZnO, it was loaded with Ag metal and about 20 % enhancement in the activity was observed.
High-resolution modeling of tsunami run-up flooding: a case study of flooding in Kamaishi city, Japan, induced by the 2011 Tohoku tsunami

Published: July 2018

Abstract. Run-up processes of the 2011 Tohoku tsunami into the city of Kamaishi, Japan, were simulated numerically using 2-D shallow water equations with a new treatment of building footprints. The model imposes an internal hydraulic condition of permeable and impermeable walls at the building footprint outline on unstructured triangular meshes. Digital data of the building footprint approximated by polygons were overlaid on a 1.0 m resolution terrain model. The hydraulic boundary conditions were ascertained using conventional tsunami propagation calculation from the seismic center to nearshore areas. Run-up flow calculations were conducted under the same hydraulic conditions for several cases having different building permeabilities. Comparison of computation results with field data suggests that the case with a small amount of wall permeability gives better agreement than the case with impermeable condition. Spatial mapping of an indicator for run-up flow intensity (IF = (hU2)max, where h and U respectively denote the inundation depth and flow velocity during the flood, shows fairly good correlation with the distribution of houses destroyed by flooding. As a possible mitigation measure, the influence of the buildings on the flow was assessed using a numerical experiment for solid buildings arrayed alternately in two lines along the coast. Results show that the buildings can prevent seawater from flowing straight to the city center while maintaining access to the sea.
El Estado es el producto Publicidad institucional, rutinas discursivas e ideología de Estado
Authors: Ruiz Collantes Francesc Xavier 
Published: July 2018

A través de la publicidad institucional, los diferentes organismos del Estado difunden mensajes que cumplen diferentes funciones explícitas: se insta a los ciudadanos a ejercer comportamientos cívicos, se ofrece información de interés público, se presentan resultados de las acciones de gobierno, etc. Sin embargo, más allá de dichas funciones, la publicidad institucional del Estado fundamenta sus discursos en un conjunto de presupuestos resguardados de todo cuestionamiento y práctica deliberativa. Tales presupuestos reflejan y transmiten ideas y valores fundamentales en relación a lo que es el propio Estado, la sociedad civil, los ciudadanos y las relaciones entre todos ellos. El conjunto de presupuestos "dados por descontadop y en los que arraiga el discurso general de fa publicidad institucional del Estado acaba definiendo un cuerpo doctrinal e ideológico muy específico¡ este cuerpo doctrinal e ideológico se difunde a través de discursos mediáticos que son producto de rutinas discursivas de construcción de sentido socialmente hegemónico.
(R)EXISTÊNCIAS ALIMENTARES: Investigando modos de produção de subjetividade através das práticas alimentares na cidade contemporânea/FOOD RESISTANCE: Investigating modes of production of subjetivity through eating practices in the contemporary city.
Authors: Craveiro Camila Caires 
Published: July 2018

O artigo parte de uma discussão do campo dos estudos da Subjetividade (GUATTARI, ROLNIK, 2010), para refletir sobre os modos de produção subjetiva, através das práticas alimentares no contexto da cidade contemporânea. Buscaremos refletir sobre como a cidade – movida por um crescente fenômeno de urbanização em conexão com a modernização/mecanização das práticas agrícolas – amparada pelo desenvolvimento capitalista, produz práticas alimentares como reflexo e reprodução deste modo de desenvolvimento. Ao mesmo tempo em que pode ser possibilidade de reinvenção dos modos de vida dispostos neste contexto atual, fazendo apostas numa éco-lógica (GUATTARI, 1990; SANTOS, 2002), como reinvenção das práticas de cuidado de si e da cidade (FOUCAULT, 2006b). AbstractThe article begins with a discussion of the field of studies of Subjectivity (GUATTARI, ROLNIK, 2010), to reflect on subjective modes of production, through eating practices in the context of the contemporary city. It aims to explore the transformations that have occurred in the last century in the context of cities and their consequences in the logic of the production of food practices. Such reflection will be woven based on the cartographic method (PASSOS, KASTRUP, ESCÓSSIA, 2014ª, 2014b, FONSECA, NASCIMENTO MARASCHIN, 2012), supporting the cartography of the multiplicity of discourses and food practices present in the context of the contemporary city. The article is based on a bibliographical review involving discussions of the human and social sciences that can expand the field of discussion, presenting already, the perspective that this field does not fit within specific disciplinary sectors. As a result of the analyzes, it is possible to show that the growing urbanization phenomenon in connection with the modernization / mechanization of agricultural practices - supported by capitalist development - produces food practices as a reflection and reproduction of this mode of development. Resulting in the constitution of the habit of eating as a mere act of consumption, one among so many products on the shelves of the market. At the same time, it is possible to see the act of eating as a possibility of reinventing the ways of life in this current context, making bets in an eclogical (GUATTARI, 1990; SANTOS, 2002), as a reinvention of the practices of self care and (Foucault, 2006b).Keywords: subjectivity; city; food practices.
Há um sistema culinário do milho no Cariri?/ Is there a culinary corn system in the Cearense Cariri?
Authors: Rocha Ariza Maria 
Published: July 2018

Esta comunicação tem o objetivo de analisar o papel do milho no meio rural do Cariri. Para tanto, recorre-se aos estudos de Carneiro (2003), Cascudo (1967), Flandrin e Montanari (1998), entre outros. Metodologicamente, empregam-se a etnografia e a história oral, tendo-se como lócus a região do Cariri, especificamente os municípios do Crato, Juazeiro do Norte, Aurora e Milagres, por acreditar que muitas das tradições alimentares ainda estão bem preservadas nos sítios da região. Por essa dinâmica, conclui-se que o milho assume um rol peculiar na formação de um sistema culinário a partir da identidade cultural da região, exatamente o que ocorre na região do Cariri. ABSTRACTThis paper aims to analyze the culinary corn system in rural Cariri. To do so, it is used the studies of Carneiro (2003), Cascudo (1967), Flandrin and Montanari (1998), among others. Methodologically, ethnography and oral history are used, with the Cariri region as the locus, specifically the municipalities of Crato, Juazeiro do Norte, Aurora and Milagres, because it is believed that many of the food traditions are still well preserved in the region. Due to this dynamics, it is concluded that corn assumes a peculiar role in the formation of a culinary system based on the cultural identity of the region, exactly what occurs in the Cariri region.Keywords: Corn; Culinary system; Cariri.
Da pesca do alimento ao simbolismo do pescado: Conflitos entre a pesca tradicional, os empreendimentos portuários e a preservação ambiental no litoral brasileiro/From food fishing to exclusion zones: the territorial conflict between the traditional fishermen, the port enterprises and the environmental preservation in the Brazilian coast
Authors: Foeger Tarcisio Jose 
Published: July 2018

O presente artigo aborda a questão alimentar como princípio fundamental da autonomia territorial envolvendo as comunidades de pescadores tradicionais (artesanais). Debatendo a questão ligada aos processos de desterritorialização articulada pela instituição de zonas de exclusão da pesca, resultantes da instalação de complexos portuários litorâneos e pela criação de novas unidades de conservação marinha. Neste sentido, o trabalho debate questões como a autonomia destes grupos e sua inserção na geopolítica local frente aos mecanismos decisórios de gestão territorial, onde o resultado, quase sempre, traduz-se na inibição da atividade pesqueira e conseqüentemente na redução da pesca. Onde os reflexos deste processo vão além das questões alimentares e produtivas, mas permeiam em outros elementos da cidadania territorial em suas diferentes dimensões. AbstractThis article addresses the food issue as a fundamental principle of territorial autonomy involving traditional (artisanal) fishing communities. Discussing the issue related to the processes of deterritorialization articulated by the institution of fishing exclusion zones, resulting from the installation of coastal port complexes and the creation of new marine and conservation units. In this sense, the work discusses issues such as the autonomy of these groups and their insertion in the local geopolitics front of the decision-making mechanisms of territorial management, where the result, almost always, is the inhibition of the fishing activity and consequently the reduction of fishing. Where the reflexes of this process go beyond food and productive issues, but permeate other elements of territorial citizenship in its different dimensions. Keywords: fishing - food - territories

Authors: Krauser Raul Ristow 
Published: July 2018

Este artigo busca compreender a situação da produção e abastecimento alimentar no Espírito Santo e como esta situação é considerada no Plano Plurianual 2012-2015. Identificou-se o nível de produção das principais culturas demonstrando que há uma trajetória de queda na produção de alimentos e especialização em alguns produtos exportáveis. Tal processo tem impacto no preço dos alimentos evidenciado pelo valor da cesta básica em Vitória, podendo afetar o nível de segurança alimentar dos domicílios capixabas. Por fim, considerando o PPA 2012-2015 vimos que todas essas questões não são objeto de preocupação, de estratégias ou programas de governo. AbstractThe present article tries to understand how the situation of food production and supply in Espírito Santo is dealt by the Pluriannual plan (PPA) 2012-2015. The level of the main food cultures production has fallen substantially as well as the specialized production of some exportable goods. It was noticed that this process has an impact on the prices of food evidenced by the food basket price in Vitória. This process can affect the level of food safety for the locals. Finally, considering the PPA 2012-2015, it was detected that these issues aren’t object of concern or strategies in governmental programs.Keywords: Agrarian Question; Food supplies; Food Security.

AbstractThe present article aims to expose the essential relationship between the conservative modernization of agriculture, its system of techniques and the pathogenic transformation of space. Therefore, we seek to reveal the nuances of conservative modernization in Brazil and Espírito Santo, through the analytical categories of systems object and systems of action. From this perspective, we present an overview of the poisoning and death resulting from the use of pesticides, from 2007 to 2014, en Espírito Santo. For this, we used the spatialization of the data, made available by the official information systems, in order to construct a set of maps and graphs that evidenced the pathogenic content of the space.Keywords: Conservative modernization; systems object and actions; pathogenic space
Em busca da ordem no caos: o que é bom para comer no capitalismo do século XXI?/Searching for the order of chaos: the capital’s logic on determining what is good to eat
Authors: Santos Baca Andrea , Baca Lobera Gloria Idalia 
Published: July 2018

O artigo desenvolve uma análise critica de um dos aspetos da crise alimentar atual: o problema no redor da determinação de que é bom para comer. Condição que tem levado ao desvanecimento da linha que contrapunha o problema da fome ao problema da obesidade, concentrando ambas no conceito de má nutrição. O artigo emprega os conceitos de fetichismo da mercadoria e a lógica do lucro para demonstrar, primeiro que a chamada cacofonia alimentar é o produto da mediação mercantil da alimentação. E segundo que este caos no redor de que é bom para comer é apenas a forma de expressão da imposição de uma alimentação especificamente capitalista, baseada no consumo de grandes quantidades de carne e alimentos processados. AbstractThe article develops a Marxist analysis of one aspect of the current food crisis: the problem around determining what is good to eat. The line that counters posed the problem of hunger to the problem of obesity has vanished, concentrating both on the concept of malnutrition, while increasing information on the properties of food. The article employs the concepts of commodity fetishism and the logic of profit to demonstrate, first, that the so-called food cacophony is the product of commodity mediation. And second, that this chaos around what is good to eat is only the form of expression of the imposition of specifically capitalist food consumption pattern centered on meat and processed food.Key words: Food crisis, capitalism, nutrition.
Le droit international pénal à l’épreuve des régimes politiques africains
Authors: Ngameni Herman Blaise 
Published: July 2018

La question des rapports entre le droit international pénal et les régimes politiques africains mérite d’être posée sans fard. En effet, depuis de nombreuses années, l’actualité juridique internationale révèle l’existence d’une friction entre les normes internationales pénales et les institutions politiques africaines. De fait, dans de nombreux pays du « continent noir » où des populations ont été victimes de crimes internationaux les plus graves, certains chefs d’Etat qui d’une manière générale exercent une emprise considérable sur l’institution juridictionnelle, sont accusés d’avoir favorisé l’émergence d’une justice des vainqueurs dont la conséquence a été la banalisation de l’impunité au profit des personnes qui bénéficient de la faveur du pouvoir politique. La présente contribution est non seulement une démonstration de l’incompatibilité qui existe entre les régimes politiques africains non démocratiques et le droit international pénal, mais aussi un exposé d’un florilège d’idées qui pourraient permettre aux Etats concernés d’adopter définitivement le triptyque « Etat de droit, Démocratie et Droit de l’homme » qui ne peut que favoriser la réduction des risques de commission des crimes contre la paix et la sécurité de l’humanité tout en permettant aux Etats africains d’être en phase avec le système international pénal.
L’affirmation d’une justice climatique au prétoire (quelques propos sur le jugement de la Cour du district de La Haye du 24 juin 2015)
Authors: Torre-Schaub Marta 
Published: July 2018

La contribution de la société civile à la cause climatique et la mobilisation du droit à faveur de cette cause émergent nettement lorsque le cadre institutionnel et la capacité de l’État à prendre en charge le problème climatique s’avèrent bouleversés ou insuffisants. À cela s’ajoute l’inexistence de règles de responsabilité fermes et précises, suffisamment punitives. Dans ce contexte, la notion de justice climatique est très mobilisée. Mais elle n’est pas suffisamment bien définie et donc peu opérationnelle. Parallèlement, on observe la montée d’un contentieux climatique, qui semble être le volet « justiciabilité » de la justice climatique, dans lequel la société civile se saisit du droit et le mobilise devant des institutions judiciaires.
PROHIBITION PRESCRITE AU SOUS-PARAGRAPHE B DE L’ARTICLE PREMIER DE LA CONVENTION SUR LES ARMES CHIMIQUES : SOMMES-NOUS EN PRÉSENCE D’UN EFFET GÉNÉRATEUR D’UNE RÈGLE DU DROIT INTERNATIONAL COUTUMIER ?
Authors: Fortin Émilie 
Published: July 2018

La prohibition de l’emploi de produits chimiques comme moyen de guerre est l’une des plus anciennes règles du droit international humanitaire. Or, les préoccupations actuelles de la communauté internationale face au danger que pose le terrorisme ne peuvent plus exclure la possibilité de leur emploi en dehors du cadre des conflits armés. La détermination du statut de cette règle en droit international général acquiert de plus en plus d’importance. Elle permettrait notamment de cibler les outils dont disposent les États afin d’engager la responsabilité des entités (étatiques ou non) et individus qui auraient violé cette obligation. Cette étude élaborera, dans le cadre d’une réflexion préliminaire, les raisons pour lesquelles il est important de porter cette analyse au-delà du régime juridique du droit international humanitaire. Par une démarche détaillée, elle démontrera également que le sous-paragraphe (b) de l’article premier de la Convention sur les armes chimiques est pourvu d’un « caractère fondamentalement normatif » et que les deux éléments constitutifs de la création d’une norme coutumière – la pratique étatique et l’opinio juris – ont suivi l’adoption de cette disposition conventionnelle, de sorte qu’elle s’est doublée d’une règle coutumière.
