title: Merde! Teachings from Russian art to Organizational Learning

description: ABSTRACT Considering the human being in his entirety is to understand him as a spiritual being, who does not separate the existential from the instrumental, who finds and shapes the meanings of what he experiences in the action or while acting, can be a path to more adequate responses to the present society (LINCOLN; GUBA, 2006). In this article, we relate concepts and practices in Russian art with Organizational Learning (OL). From Vygotsky’s ideas on Double Stimulation and the method of Ascending from the Abstract to the Concrete, used in learning theories like the Cultural-Historical Activity Theory (CHAT), we sought to establish a connection between the potential of art to stimulate and develop man’s learning as a spiritual being and OL. Art offers the possibility of awakening a spiritual force that can move man and “awaken” him to his role of agency, transforming his life and his reality. This relationship is established by bringing Vygotsky and Stanislavski together, and we use the method of the Russian playwriter to propose a draft method that considers art as medicine and a cure for organizations to understand the human being in his entirety and also for them to be constituted as spaces for development.

title: Antinociception Induced by Moringa Stenopetela (Baker f.) Cufod. Leaves Extract and Possible Mechanisms of Action

description: Abstract Moringa stenopetala (Baker f.) Cufod., is an endemic species growing in the south of Ethiopia. M. stenopetala is often consumed as food and used in traditional medicine and it has also been traditionally used for relieving of pain in Ethiopia. This study aimed to investigate the antinociceptive effect and mechanisms of action of M. stenopetala leaves methanol extract in mice. The per-oral doses of 50, 100, and 200 mg/kg of M. stenopetala extract were tested for antinociceptive action by using hot-plate, tail-immersion, and writhing tests. The possible mechanisms of in the antinociceptive action were investigated by pre-treatment with 5 mg/kg naloxone (non-selective opioid antagonist), 1 mg/kg ketanserin (5-HT2A/2C receptor antagonist), and 1 mg/kg yohimbine (α2 adrenoceptor antagonist). The methanol extract of M. stenopetala showed antinociceptive effect in all tests. The significant involvement of 5-HT2A/2C receptors and α2 adrenoceptors in antinociception induced by M. stenopetala extract in the hot-plate and tail-immersion tests, as well as significant contribution of opioid receptors and α2 adrenoceptors in writhing test, were identified. In conclusion, these findings demonstrate that the methanol extract of M. stenopetala has potential in pain management.

title: Solubility enhancementofcefixime trihydrate by solid dispersions using hydrotropic solubilization technique and their characterization

description: Abstract The aqueous solubility of cefixime trihydrate (a water insoluble drug) using different hydrotropic agents was determined and solid dispersions of cefixime trihydrate were prepared by hydrotropic solubilization technique. The drugs content were determined. The aqueous solubility of v was increased many fold in presence of sodium acetate trihydrate as hydrotropic agent. This hydrotropic agent was used to prepare solid dispersion of cefixime trihydrate. Cefixime trihydrate and sodium acetate trihydrate were accurately weighed and taken in a 200 mL beaker. Distilled water 10-15 mL was taken to dissolve hydrotropic agent using heat (48-50 °C). The drug was then added to it and magnetically stirred till whole mass get viscous. The solid dispersions of cefixime trihydrate were characterized by XRD, DSC and IR studies. DSC thermogram, XRD and Infra-Red spectra were studied. Solid dispersions, thus prepared, showed faster release of the drug as compared to pure drug and physical mixture.

title: Institutional theory in accounting research: a review

description: Abstract The aim of this paper is to analyze the new directions and tendencies of research in Accounting that draws on the Institutional theory. Thus, in other to achieve this objective, a systematic literature review was carried out using the main Accounting journals in Brazil (Qualis A1, A2 and B2 journals) and internationally (ABS (2010) list grades 3 and 4 journals). 135 articles (32 Brazilian and 103 international papers) were analyzed. These papers were classified according to the research topics identified in previous studies. This paper contributes to the analysis of trends in the use of the Institutional Theory in Accounting research, as well as discussing a research agenda for the future. As a result, our study provides a systematic and informative analysis of the accounting literature based on the Institutional Theory that might expand the understanding, the debate and the use of such theory as a theoretical lens for the explanation of complex phenomena in the field of Accounting.

title: Public action and social innovation: an analysis of the System of Protection of the Rights of Children and Adolescents Florianópolis-SC

description: Abstract Brazil has an advanced legislation related to the guarantee of children and adolescents’ rights. However, these institutional innovations do not seem to promote an effective transformation in the social reality, given the numerous cases of violation registered every day against children and adolescents in the country. In this paper we discuss this problem and aim to understand how the policy of protection of children and adolescents´ rights in Florianópolis is performed and its consequences in terms of social innovation in the public arenas where it is embedded. In order to do so, public policy is examined as “public action”, and a pragmatist perspective in the study of the case is adopted. We present the analytical framework and its application in different scales of analysis: macro, meso and micro, and relate these scales showing advances and limits of the public action in this area in the municipality. The conclusions highlight that in local practices, the policy is performed in a backdrop of institutional and political fragility. This results in more regularity than social innovation producing the opposite of what is expected in its legal framework: full protection, and leading to a process of stigmatization of the children, adolescents and families attended by this public policy.

title: Transformation for sustainability and its promoting elements in educational institutions: a case study in an institution focused on transformative learning

description: Abstract This paper aims to identify what changes are necessary in educational institutions (EIs) to improve their potential as promoters of transformation for sustainability. Thus, a case study was conducted in an EI, in England, which seeks to promote transformative learning for sustainable living. Data were obtained through 8 interviews, analysis of 12 documents, and observations carried out in February and March 2014. Using the Sustainable Transformative Learning Framework and the elements that promoted the transformation to sustainability in EIs found in the literature as references, the case study was analyzed focusing on the processes of change for sustainability, management, and teaching-learning. Two of the main findings are: the adoption by the EI of sustainable strategies and objectives that go beyond the Triple Bottom Line, involving multiple stakeholders; broadening of the teaching-learning process going beyond cognitive objectives, adopting a strategy of sustainable education and transdisciplinarity.

title: Delimiting the concept of organizational commitment: empirical evidence of the overlap between the entrenchment and the continuance mindset

description: Abstract In the research agenda on organizational commitment, the three-dimensional model of Meyer and Allen is still extensively used, despite the fact that it has been the focus of discussions about conceptual and empirical problems, especially those related to one of its dimensions (continuance commitment). This study introduces to the existing debate the concept of organizational entrenchment, as the worker's tendency to remain due to his evaluation of his employability, his employment alternatives outside the organization, and the costs associated with leaving the company. In the career field, researchers found evidence of overlap between entrenchment and continuance commitment. In this study, we aimed to test the hypothesis of overlap between these constructs within the organizational target, using structural equation modeling. The sample consisted of 721 workers from different organizations and states in Brazil. We used SPSS 13.0 and AMOS 16.0 software. The two covariance models, both with good fit indices, provided evidence of overlap. In spite of the fact that the hypothesis was confirmed, we recommend further studies aimed at gathering additional empirical indicators showing that the continuance component represents the same phenomenon as organizational entrenchment, justifying its detachment from the concept of commitment.

title: Critical Discourse Analysis as a theoretical-methodological alternative for organizational studies: an example of representational meaning analysis

description: Abstract Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) is a theoretical-methodological alternative for critical organizational studies because it contributes to the examination of social issues in the contemporary world and seeks to denaturalize beliefs that support the structures of domination. Although the adoption of the CDA in the Administration area is not new, its use is still restricted, and the analysis of the textual dimension has not always been explored in depth. Thus, in this article, we retrieve the theoretical and methodological bases of Norman Fairclough’s approach (1989, 2001, and 2003) and also provide subsidies to operationalize analytical categories of representational meaning, exemplifying its operationalization. With this, we seek to elucidate aspects related to the linguistic analysis of the texts in order to disseminate the approach among researchers in the area.

title: From Substantive Reason to Cosmopolitan Substantive Reason: rehearsing new possibilities

description: Abstract Since reason is a fundamental concept of the sciences of organizations, this theoretical essay aims to analyze substantive rationality (RAMOS, 1989) and cosmopolitan rationality (SANTOS, 2002; 2007a; 2007b) in order to derive arguments from them in favor of a cosmopolitan substantive rationality. The distinction, confrontation, and extension of substantive reason in relation to instrumental reason gives rise to the assertion that substantive reason, also being cosmopolitan, offers alternative theoretical proposals to social science. The two models of reason also converge in the pragmatic idea of the consequences of its exercise, and its essence is symbolic interactions. Cosmopolitan substantive reason would constitute a conception that aggregates the restoration of life based on ethics and politics, and built on the recognition of the plural and multidimensional man and views translation as an element to be mediated in social interactions. It considers the ecology of knowledge as a guideline in the design of multidimensional social scenarios.

title: Discussing management to change: the 5M framework

description: Abstract This paper aims to discuss and present the theoretical support of the 5M framework, developed to guide managers from an uncritical and rational view of management of change to a more critical and pragmatic focus on managing to change. By adopting the change as drama approach, we combined what is commonly described as a weak view of organizations-as-drama and the strong view of organizations like drama. The example of the application of the 5M framework in an MBA course allowed to evaluate its impact as a rhetorical vehicle of education and management practice, as well as to provide suggestions for later theoretical-pedagogical refinements.

title: Changes, institutional logics and emergence of new actors: the renaturation of maternity in Brazil

description: Abstract The worldwide leadership of Brazil regarding the proportion of births carried out by cesarean section has triggered governmental initiatives and responses by women’s groups working to reverse this situation, evidencing initiatives for the renaturation of maternity. In this context, key actors for the promulgation of new practices regarding childbirth and child rearing are highlighted. Based on this, we aim to investigate the emergence of new actors involved in the field of maternity, during processes of change in institutional logics, herein named interventionist logic and natural logic of motherhood. Based on a documentary research in the field of health and a case study in a support group for pregnant women and mothers in the city of Maringa (PR), it was demonstrated that perceived inconsistencies between contradictory logics provided opportunity for the emergence of new actors who acted as legitimators of the changes, providing support for other logics and enabling their recursive expansion in the field.
