title: Modelo de Análise da Oferta de Exportação de Milho Brasileira: 2001 a 2012

description: Abstract: This study aims to estimate the corn export supply function for Brazil from 2001 to 2012. For this analysis we developed a theoretical model estimated using the cointegration and vector error correction model (VEC). The variables used were: corn exports, international corn price, poultry slaughters, soybean prices and world GDP. The results obtained showed the existence of long-term relationship between the variables. The international corn price, poultry slaughters, soybean prices and world GDP had a significant impact on corn exports, showing signs as expected by the theoretical model. There was a positive impact on corn exports after an unanticipated shock in the soybean price and negative impact after a not anticipated shock the slaughter of poultry. In relation to the international price, it was found that a shock in this variable has a negative impact on corn exports. In order to assess the relationships between the domestic price and the international price of corn, there was the weak exogeneity test between the variables and it was found that, despite this market still does not have the Law of One Price, changes in the international corn price affect the domestic price.

title: Degradação Ambiental nos Municípios do Rio Grande do Sul e Relação com os Fatores de Desenvolvimento Rural

description: Abstract:This study aimed to analyze the pattern of agricultural environmental degradation of the cities in Rio Grande do Sul State in Brazil and verify how this pattern is affected by the factors of rural development in these same cities in two different periods of time. In this sense, the methodology used was the Agricultural Environmental Degradation Index (IDAA) as a proxy for agricultural environmental degradation and the technique of factor analysis was used to find the determinants of rural development. In order to study the impact of these factors on agricultural environmental degradation of Rio Grande do Sul, a regression model with panel data was estimated by the method of Fixed Effects. The values of agricultural environmental degradation for the mesoregions in Rio Grande do Sul shown to be high and the central-eastern mesoregion presented the greatest degradation averages. In the relationship between IDAA and the factors, all coefficients were statistically significant. The factors Conditions of Housing and Rural Education, Leverage and Correction of Rural Production and Rural Electricity presented a positive relationship with degradation and Structure and Performance of the Agricultural Sector, Agricultural Production Area and Economic and Financial Rural showed a negative relationship. This aspect demonstrates divergent effects between the areas studied.

title: Assimetria na Transmissão de Preços e Poder de Mercado: o caso do mercado varejista de etanol no estado de São Paulo

description: Abstract:The presence of market power in fuel retailing has been a major concern in Brazil, motivating antitrust investigations as well as economic research. However, lack of appropriate data precludes the estimation of straight market power indicators, leaving the possibility of using price series to identify market power. The objective of this study is to identify the presence of market power at the retail of fuel ethanol in cities of different sizes. The method adopted consists in verifying if price increases and decreases are transmitted asymmetrically to consumers, assuming that more intense transmission of price increases is related to the presence of market power. Monthly wholesale and retail price series of ethanol for cities with different sizes located in São Paulo State, Brazil, were used. The results indicate the presence of market power, since retailers were able to transmit price increases more rapidly and more intensively than price decreases for most cities. Such results suggest that asymmetry in price transmission can be a useful analytical tool to investigate market power and that antitrust authorities must observe the retail concentration and the behavior in the fuel market in order to protect consumers.

title: Ação Coletiva e Delegação de Poder no Semiárido Nordestino: papel de lideranças locais e assessores externos numa comunidade rural

description: Abstract: This paper examines the collective experience developed since the mid 1980 in a rural community of Northeastern semi-arid region - Lagoa dos Cavalos (Russas, Ceará). The land tenure pattern is based on fragmentation by inheritance, and its formal registration enables a peculiar form of organization that ensures the population certain autonomy in collective decisions on local development. The goal of this article is to check who has power and responsibility in the process of collective action coordination, the profile and the role of these actors. The method is based on qualitative research, combining the use of witness statements, documentary and bibliographical sources. Intentional non-probability sampling was used for the definition of the actors to be interviewed. The conclusion points that power and responsibility are delegated to two types of local leaders, who hold the recognition and legitimacy to meet the demands inherent in the work of collective activities coordination or for mediation between the location, the external advisors and the world, keeping on autonomy. The external advisors provide technical and political support, and facilitate the access to financial resources. Both local and external advisors leaders play an important role in local development, but are dependent on the local organization that has created mechanisms to build cooperation and coordination of action of those involved.

title: Análise da Distribuição dos Financiamentos Rurais entre os Estabelecimentos Agropecuários Brasileiros

description: Abstract:The objective of the research was to analyze the distribution of the credit use between the rural establishments, considering, as criteria, the number of establishments and participating in production value. To analyze this distribution, the percentage of credit used by the 50% lower and by the 5 and 10% larger establishments, the average value financed and the concentration index were calculated. The results showed that the distribution of funding between the agricultural establishments are concentrated, but tends to reflect the differences of these establishments with respect their contribution to the production value. This result is related to the effects of Pronaf, a program that benefits the establishments of the lower strata of area. In the absence of this program, the distribution of the government programs of credit would be much more concentrated. However, changes in the operational rules of this program, which favor more capitalized farmers and regions where they predominate, are probably reducing this effect.

title: A Heterogeneidade e suas Implicações para as Políticas Públicas no Rural Brasileiro

description: This article is a fast review on the heterogeneity of Brazilian agriculture debate. It was demonstrated that this is a historically verified condition in our rural areas and can be found in other agricultural sectors, more technical or more labor intensive. Beyond the heterogeneity, public policy must turn its attention to reducing inequalities that have their causes related to differential access to factors of production and the low capacity of the producers to obtain net gains from their holdings. It is recommended the adoption of simple actions related to technical assistance, extension, credit to produce and trade.

title: Gerenciamento Adaptativo do SAI de Acácia Negra: uma abordagem sob a ótica da auto-organização sustentável

description: With the emergence of the concept of Sustainable Forest Management (SFM), forest agro-industries have been pressured to make decisions based on principles of sustainability, driving all the supply chain players toward forest certification. In Brazil, a process that mirrors this moment is happening in the Agroindustrial System of Acacia Negra. This is, however, in a complex context, implying ambiguous and risky decisions in the context of forest ecosystems. Thus, we propose the following question: what strategic actions forest producers are adopting, and how they relate to the risks in the Acacia agroindustrial system? The goal is to analyze the development and implementation of strategic actions that promote or discourage sustainable self-organization of the system (i.e. forest certification). The theoretical foundation starts with a systemic oriented perspective to the study of organizations and sustainable strategies. It integrates discussions more specifically related to the decision-making, strategies and risks within the rural property. Post-Normal science was the methodology used, following a qualitative approach. As a result, we identified that strategic actions adopted by forest producers are dialogically related to the risks and can have complementary, competitive and even antagonistic influences.

title: THE VISUAL REPRESENTATION OF MATURE WOMEN ON THE POSTERS OF THE NETFLIX SERIES “GRACE AND FRANKIE”

description: ABSTRACT This article aims at presenting a multimodal analysis of movie posters concerning the two female leading characters of the Netflix series Grace and Frankie published in their official Facebook page. Specifically, we analyze five posters showing both characters, one from each broadcasted season until 2019 in terms of their visual content based on the Grammar of Visual Design (GVD) (KRESS & VAN LEEUWEN, 1996, 2006), with support from studies concerning women in the media as the theoretical framework. Results indicate that the visual meanings in each poster represent the two characters adequately regarding the key developments of each season, showing their change of conduct and attitude, particularly Grace, over the series. The findings of the analysis here undertaken can hopefully contribute to a critical investigation of social identities in different media and to on-going discussions concerning social semiotics and multimodality in relation to contemporary social practices.

title: IS MEME A GENRE? QUESTIONS ABOUT MEME´S GENERIC STATUS

description: ABSTRACT In recente years, it has been assumed academically that memes published on Facebook and other social networking sites (SRS) are textual/ discursive genres (cf. PASSOS, 2012; ; SILVA, 2016; GUERRA; BOTTA, 2018), thesis defended with different criteria and different genre theories. The objective of this paper is to discuss the generic status of memes on social networking sites. In order to achieve the purpose, I brought the studies of Bakhtin (2009; 2011) and , to discuss the concept of genre; and in Dawkins (2010), Blackmore (2000), Knobel and Lankshear (2005; 2007) and Cavalcante and Oliveira (2019), who discuss the nature of the meme. Methodologically, I analyze seven statements socially recognized as memes, which were published on Facebook in the last five years. The criteria for this were viralization and remixability, in its constitution. The results suggest that, under the label of meme, in fact, there are different genres, such as commercials and institucional ads, comic strips and serial comic strips, criticisms, reminders and motivational messages, which leads to question the generic status of what is recognized sociocognitively as meme.

title: “BOTA FOGO NESSES VAGABUNDOS!”: ENTEXTUALIZATIONS OF XENOPHOBIA IN THE TEXTUAL TRAJECTORY OF A FAKE NEWS

description: ABSTRACT With the emergence of the internet as an infrastructure for innovation in communication modes, fake news production has grown profusely, facilitating modes of publishing and sharing false information and news. Fake news has extrapolated the materiality of the texts and increased hate speech in society and violations of human rights, such as xenophobic attacks on immigrants in Brazil. In this study, we seek to analyze which entextualizations were mobilized in the textual trajectory of a fake news on different digital platforms and what positions the participants of the interaction take in relation to the situation of crisis migration in the country. This work is based on the theoretical-analytical constructs of Applied Linguistics (Moita Lopes, 2006; Cavalcanti, 2013). The corpus covers the textual trajectory of the event ‘Bota Fogo!’, referring to the attack on Venezuelan immigrants in Pacaraima, occurred on August 18, 2018. The results indicate that the spread of fake news mobilizes prejudiced discursive-identity positions in virtual interactions, but also drives xenophobic reactions outside online networks.

title: “BUT THAT’S BECAUSE PEOPLE DON’T KNOW WHAT POLE DANCING IS”: CONTRIBUTIONS OF EVALUATION TO THE DISCURSIVE ANALYSIS OF STIGMAS

description: ABSTRACT In this article, we investigate an interaction between pole dancing practitioners, focusing on the reaction and the resistance related to the recurrent construction of stigmas about the activity. Inserted in the area of Contemporary Applied Linguistics, the research is centered on the observation of the discursive evaluative mechanisms negotiated by the interlocutors and their contributions to the reframing of the activity they practice. The microdiscursive analysis is based on the appraisal theory, imbedded in Systemic-Functional Linguistics. Evaluations produced mainly in the domains of affect and judgment are highlighted in order to foreground the stigmas problematized in participants’ discourses. The methodology is oriented by the qualitative paradigm and the corpus was generated in a recorded conversation between the first author and her pole dancing teacher. Our understandings suggest that participants conceive pole dancing as a liberating practice, creating a discourse that reframes it positively and that resists against conservative hegemonic views, such as the ones which stigmatize the activity and consider it a vulgar and deviant practice.

title: DIGITAL TEXTUAL GENDERS AS PEDAGOGICAL STRATEGIES IN PORTUGUESE LANGUAGE TEACHING IN THE PERSPECTIVE OF (MULTI) LITERACIES AND MULTILITERACIES

description: ABSTRACT Through a bibliographical research, based on specific theorists, as well as studies carried out in the form of current articles, theses and dissertations, it is proposed, in this article, to make theoretical reflections about the urgent need to review the methodology used by teachers of Portuguese Language in Basic Education, especially in High School, in which it is possible to use / create / adapt pedagogical strategies that can use / integrate / take advantage of digital technologies, in a (multi) literate and also multiliterate perspective. In order to do so, its main objective is to promote discussions about the insertion of digital textual genres, as pedagogical strategies, in the teaching of Portuguese Language, in the light of (multi) literacies and multiliteracies. In this way, it presents the digital narratives (digital storytelling) and the digital microliterature as suggestions of digital textual genres that can be used strategically in the classes of Portuguese Language, in High School, in order to make them closer to the reality (cyber) cultural in which, primarily, the student of this segment is inserted.

title: Sustainable city of Rio de Janeiro (RJ)? Analysis of the evolution of planning for Sanitary Sewage

description: ABSTRACT This article aimed to analyze the panorama of Sanitary Sewage, from 1992 to 2016, against the evolution of the strategic and directors plans of the city of Rio de Janeiro (RJ), proposing sustainable measures. It was developed from exploratory and descriptive research, with primary and secondary sources. After analyzing the urban plans, a series of goals that were not applied in the city was found, due to budgetary and political issues, that contributed to the unsustainability of the city in terms of Sanitary Sewage.

title: SWINGS AND SCALES OF DEMOCRACY: THE “TRANSGENDER EPIDEMIC” AND RESISTANCE TO ANTIGENDERISM

description: ABSTRACT Brazilian democracy moves like a pendulum: from time to time its limits are expanded or retracted (Avritzer 2019). After a virulent dictatorial period, re-democratization was strengthened in the first decade of the 21st century. Public policies for the enfranchisement of the LGBT+ population were particularly important in this process. The rise of bolsonarism has been pushing the democratic pendulum back to its extreme opposite. This, however, does not go unchallenged. Against this backdrop, we analyze the online circulation of a poster for a lecture about a “transgender epidemic”, which was due to take place the Legislative Assembly of Porto Alegre in March 2020. Such textual disputes may help us reconceptualize the current state of Brazilian democracy as a friction between distinct scalar projects (Carr and Lempert, 2016). The textual trajectories we analyze suggest that the back and forth movement of democracy is not linear as Avritzer (2019) seems to assume. The illiberal retraction of recent years coexists with values forged in periods of democratic expansion, which explains the fact that the lecture was canceled due to online protests. Such resistance suggests that de-democratizing scalar projects are neither homogeneous nor totalizing, which allows new political collectivities to contest attempts to disenfranchise them.

title: STUDYING QUILOMBOLA PRACTICES OF RESISTANCE ON INSTAGRAM

description: ABSTRACT This article analyzes how processes of subjectivation are performed on the popular image-based social media Instagram by Djankaw, a black trans resident of a quilombo [a settlement founded by descendants of formerly enslaved African-Brazilians]. Following a Foucauldian analysis of discourse whereby power is seen to be exercised wherever there is resistance, we look at how Djankaw’s processes of subjectivation intersect with race, class, sexuality, and religion, becoming practices of resistance against hegemonic colonial narratives. Djankaw’s performances on the Internet instigate a productive debate over the African-Brazilian quilombola identity itself and resonate with the struggles of marginalized groups to reclaim their diverse time-spaces in the interior of Brazil. Djankaw’s posts and their embodied practices operate as sites to question the meanings of what it means to be black, trans, and quilombola [an inhabitant of a quilombo]. Further, the complexity of Djankaw’s subject positions is increased by their connection to different religions: they incorporate different spiritual practices that also orchestrate discussions on race, sexuality, and gender. While performing their selves on the internet, Djankaw mobilizes and re-shapes bodily social marks, at the same time that they participate in semiotic practices of resistance against the historical erasure of quilombola cultures in Brazil and claim their emancipation from colonialism.

title: MEDIATISING RESISTANCE TO CONTEMPORARY FASCISM ON YOUTUBE: VOICING DISSENT IN BRAZILIAN RAP

description: ABSTRACT In recent years, an on-going shift from more progressive political, social and cultural relations towards a more conservative turn around the world has been under way. A fascist political stance (STANLEY, 2018) has been noted in different parts of the globe and politicians have been able to gather followers dissatisfied with crumbling economies by usually making recourse to an “us versus them” discourse. Such dissatisfaction and bias have found fertile ground in social media platforms, e.g. Facebook and WhatsApp, and elevated the tensions around such issues to a level never before seen. In the 2018 presidential election in Brazil, similar tensions were fuelled by a candidate with an authoritarian, xenophobic and misogynistic discourse. More importantly, that authoritarian discourse did not go unchallenged and the same social media platforms were home for constant resistance to it such as, for instance, the movement #nothim, created by the Facebook group “Women United against Bolsonaro”, and the rap/hip hop movement in Brazil, which released protest songs and a manifesto called “Rap for Democracy” on YouTube. In this paper, we focus on one music video in particular, ‘Primavera Fascista’ (“Fascist Spring”) to present a multimodal analysis of how resistance to that candidate’s discourse was constructed. We look into visual, sound, musical and linguistic resources (KRESS, 2010; MACHIN, 2010). Drawing upon a view of language as performative (PENNYCOOK, 2004; 2007), we use the analytical constructs of entextualization (BAUMAN & BRIGGS, 1990) and indexicality (BLOMMAERT, 2005; 2010) to show that the rap song is an exhaustive discursive exercise of metapragmatic reflexivity on the performative effects of a number of fascist statements produced by the candidate.

title: Health assessment: processual and structural dimension of child health in primary care

description: ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to assess the attributes of the procedural and structural dimensions of primary health care in two models of health care. This is a quantitative study carried out with secondary data of a multicenter primary study with caregivers of children in family health units and traditional primary care units of two medium-sized Brazilian municipalities, whose data collection took place in 2012 and 2013. The Primary Care Assessment Tool (PCATool-Brazil) children version was used to assess the effectiveness of the models. Inferential statistical analysis was made. In the evaluation of the essential attributes the mean score was equal to or higher than expected (6,6) and the overall score was below (6,4). From the perspective of the caregiver of the child, the two models of care are oriented to primary care only in the essential attributes, although, not in the general score. The weaknesses and potentialities of care models indicate the need for changes in the organization of services to include comprehensive childcare.
