title: Defining commuters profiles in Brazil

description: Abstract The aim of this article is the construction of typologies for Brazilian workers, especially regarding commuting time to work. Through the GoM (Grade of Membership) method, pure and mixed worker profiles in the Brazilian labor market were established, using data from 2009 and 2014 PNADs. Three basic characteristics marked those who spend a lot of time commuting: they are male, residents of metropolitan areas and have a low socioeconomic status. Analyzing the opposite end, profiles associated with workers who do not commute present a higher prevalence of women with low socioeconomic status. The spatial distribution of the population, as expected, is not random. In short, the poorest people tend to reside far from the town center and the opposite applies to individuals in a more favorable financial situation.

title: Analysis of the population structure of a cattle conservation nucleus Curraleiro Pé Duro

description: ABSTRACT The objective of this research was to study the population structure of the Cattle Conservation Nucleos Curraleiro Pé Duro of the Instituto Nacional do Semiárido (NCP_INSA) based on pedigree data. Genealogical information from 338 animals registered in the period from 1991 to 2019 was used. The number of founding animals (Nf), the effective number of founders (fe), effective number of ancestors (fa), inbreeding coefficient (F), and average relatedness coefficient (AR), in addition to Fis, Fit and Fst were estimated. It was possible to identify ancestors up to the third generation, with an increase in information over the generations. Of the total pedigree information evaluated, 90.53% had the identification of the father and mother. The effective size of the population was smaller than those proposed by FAO, suggesting the need to redefine the herd management and genetic management plan strategies, promoting gene flow and breed expansion.

title: Dry matter productivity and bromatological quality of ryegrass genotypes cultivated in southern Brazil

description: ABSTRACT The goal of this work was to assess the biomass production and bromatological quality of ryegrass genotypes in ten municipalities of the Western and North Plateau regions of the State of Santa Catarina, Brazil. The cultivars La Estanzuela 284 (diploid), Bar HQ, Barjumbo, INIA Escorpio, Potro, and Winter Star (tetraploids) were compared, distributed in a randomized block design, in which the municipalities constituted the blocks, with three replications. The cuts were performed when the plants reached 30cm, leaving a residue of 10cm. In three cuts, the cultivars Barjumbo and Bar HQ were the most productive, exceeding 4.6 t ha-1 of dry matter. In the places in which five cuts were performed, the production of these cultivars exceeded 7.3 t ha-1, placing them again ahead of the others. The average crude protein content in three cuts was greater than 25% in all cultivars. There was no difference between the genotypes in the content of neutral detergent fiber and total digestible nutrients. There was a significant correlation between quantitative and qualitative productive variables. The assessed cultivars represented good options for composing short-term or long-term winter-feeding systems, adjusted to the integration with annual crops or warm-season pastures.

title: Pattern of consumption in household living arrangements in Brazil in 2008/2009

description: Abstract The goal of this article was to analyze the pattern of consumption in different household living arrangements in Brazil using data from the 2008-2009 Brazilian Family Budget Survey (POF). We estimated Engel Curves taking into account the type of household living arrangement, among other demographic variables. Results indicated the existence of differences in the patterns of consumption of families associated to the gender of the person in charge of the household, especially in “single parent type with children” and “one person households” living arrangements. These differences are most evident in expenditure on Housing, Health and Education-recreation, in which the monthly per capita expenditure is much lower for single fathers and men living alone relative to single mothers and women living alone. In addition, we verified that family composition (presence of children, seniors) and their size affect household consumption decisions, in which the existence of children increases per capita expenditures on Housing and Health and the presence of seniors leads to an expansion of Health spending. With regard to family size, there are indications that families can benefit from economies of scale and joint consumption gains relative to Housing, Food and Transportation.

title: Life-course trajectories of childless women in Uruguay

description: Abstract This paper aims to analyze Uruguayan women who end their reproductive life span without having children. In addition to quantifying the phenomenon, it seeks to answer the following questions: Which are their main socioeconomic traits? What are the typical trajectories that lead to childlessness? To what extent is it the outcome of unsatisfied reproductive aspirations and to what extent of the will to not have any children? We use a mixed methods approach integrating quantitative and qualitative data. Our results show that the proportion of childless women dropped from approximately 25% to 10% among those born in 1900-1960, and that the most recent data show an incipient increase. In addition, there is a higher proportion of childless women among those with a high level of education. Finally, our typology of trajectories towards definitive childlessness confirms the diversity of paths and traits: although trajectories guided by the intention of not having children were identified, a significant number of women reach childlessness as an unintended consequence of the postponement of motherhood.

title: Living conditions of Brazilian families: an estimation of food insecurity

description: Abstract Aim: To research the association between the living conditions of Brazilian families and the Food Insecurity (FI) estimations. Methods: Cross-sectional study conducted with data from the Household Budget Survey (2008-2009) in rural and urban areas. The estimation of FI rating was obtained by the question: “Which of the following statements best describes the amount of food consumed by your family?”,classified as FI for answers “usually not enough” or “sometimes not enough”. Living conditions were analyzed by economic variables, the household and its surroundings. Poisson regression models with robust variance, adjusted, were used. Results: 39.4% out of 55.406 households evaluated, were classified as FI. In most (93.9%) difficulty to make ends meet was identified. Prevalence ratio values, adjusted for monthly income per capita, region and area, showed that all economic and unsatisfactory living conditions, as well as home and surrounding problems were significantly associated with FI. Conclusions: The prevalence of FI estimates was high, associated with families’ unsatisfactory living conditions. Therefore, there is a need to implement effective intersectorial public policies aimed at reducing inequality.

title: Life satisfaction in Brazil: an exploration of theoretical correlates and age, period and cohort variations using the World Values Survey (1991-2014)*

description: Abstract This paper discusses some of the factors associated with life satisfaction in Brazil using four waves of the World Values Survey (1991 to 2014). Some results already described in the literature were confirmed, as we found that individuals who were married, employed, more religious, in better health, with greater freedom/control over their lives and who had a better financial situation were more satisfied with life, regardless of the time period. The variables for age and cohort showed non-significant associations with life satisfaction when aspects that theoretically correlated with life satisfaction were controlled in the analysis. When the different cohorts were analyzed separately, the results suggest that life satisfaction might be related to the conjectural and historical factors represented by period effects.

title: Urban structure and population mobility: implications for social distance and dissemination of COVID-19

description: Abstract The world has witnessed the rapid spread of confirmed cases of acute respiratory syndrome through coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2 COVID-19). In the first months of the pandemic, statistics indicate that large cities have become prominent places of contagion and dissemination of COVID-19. In view of this, the present study offers arguments that assist in the construction and preliminary assessment of three hypotheses: 1) the urban structure and the organization of cities interfere in social distancing rates and, therefore, in the rate of contagion of the disease; 2) in cities, the way in which transport system is structured plays an important role in the pace of dissemination of COVID-19; 3) the pandemic and practices of physical and social distancing alter patterns of intra-urban mobility. National and regional data available from official agencies and other empirical studies on COVID-19 are analyzed in the light of theoretical studies on urban mobility. Then, using the inductive method, an association of these data is made with the different city models (compact vs. sprawled), considering, in particular, aspects of urban mobility. The arguments developed in this study seem to corroborate the central issues of the hypotheses presented in this work. It is necessary to develop models that incorporate these elements to advance in understanding the pandemic and elements that help in the construction of cities more resilient to phenomena such as COVID-19.

title: Population aging and public financing: an analysis of Rio Grande do Sul using a multisectoral model

description: Abstract The economic effects of population ageing are rarely addressed in developing countries. In the Brazilian context, Rio Grande do Sul is one of the states with the higher rates of population ageing. This demographic change modifies the economy's consumption pattern, affecting other related variables. The aim of this paper is to analyze the impact of the demographic changes in consumption taxes revenues in Rio Grande do Sul. To that end, a regional input-output model is used. The results show that the aging population generates a consumption profile that reduces the burden of these taxes on the economy.

title: Desire for motherhood among women with higher education: conflict, change and permanence

description: Abstract This paper analyzes the perceptions and meanings of motherhood for a group of women with high education, married or in consensual union, with no more than one child, residents of a mid-size city. Data come from sixteen semi-structured interviews conducted in 2018 in the municipality of Governador Valadares, MG. Results show that although motherhood is a desired and valued event, the decision is loaded with doubts regarding the difficulties to reconcile raising a child with the desire for freedom and professional growth. Doubts emerge as motherhood continues to have a prominent place in women’s lives, even within a rather avant-garde group. Becoming a mother remains a significant event in their lives. Conflicts generated by the simultaneous existence of the desire to be a mother and the new individual projects unveiled to women defies the common perception that links schooling to reproductive intentions.

title: Population projection, climate change and economic effects: assessment based on agricultural economic blocks

description: Abstract The future population trajectory, as well as climate change, are aspects that generate uncertainties as to their probable effects on the economy, especially on agricultural production and food industry. This paper simulates the effects of population scenarios and one of climate change using the GTAP computable general equilibrium model. A version of GTAP 10 was created to identify Agriculture, Forestry and Food Industry activities, and eight regions, called Agricultural Economic Blocks, using multivariate analysis techniques. The dynamic simulations of the accumulated deviation between thebaseline and the policy scenarios up to 2050 in isolation indicated widespread negative effects of climate change on the GDP and economic activities of the blocs. The results of the population scenarios indicated that the blocks made up of richer countries and with more diversified economies would tend to win at the expense of the others in terms of GDP. On the other hand, they would generally encourage the blocks’ Agriculture, Forestry and Food Industry productions. Taken together, the negative effects of climate change would tend to outweigh the positive effects of population scenarios and more intensively on those which project less population growth.

title: Invisible Structures of Segregation in the Metropolitan Region of Goiânia

description: Abstract This article aims to research the invisible structure of segregation of the Metropolitan Region of Goiânia (RMG), through the interrelations among processes of urban space production, urban planning principles, and population dynamics. These interrelations are fundamental to understanding the structure of socioeconomic inequalities in metropolitan areas. We analyzed the process of formation of segregation structure in the region, addressing the various urban plans developed for Goiânia. We provide a brief analysis of population indicators based on Demographic Census data from 1950 to 2010 and local indicators of spatial association in 2010 to characterize different dynamics in the region. We developed a critical analysis of these aspects, in order to identify and illustrate the main characteristics of the formation of this region in a summary diagram. We discussed how this overall spatial structure contributes to the reproduction of segregated social relations. Main results indicate that RMG does not have a simple centrality or a multi-centrality. There are a series of concentric rings with different types of centralities, which function in an integrated – but not inclusive – segregation system. We also identify research topics of social, demographic, and economic dynamics that would improve our understanding of spatial formation and urban planning in this region.
