Full textThis doctoral thesis starts with the study of the social space of two groups of metal workers in Bhopal. The first one is made of Muslim inhabitants of the polluted neighborhoods which have been contaminated following the 1984 industrial disaster who work in the Old City’s metal workshops. The other one in made of a majority of Hindus coming from the rural hinterland, sometimes from distant villages, and hired in the flyover construction yards in and around Bhopal. Both are working in the informal sector, and experiment uncertain conditions of employment. By exploring their relationships outside of work it describes the way their social relations and their collective representations are constructing themselves. It also shows how the confronting with uncertainty and their relationship to work are interacting with these social constructs. It shifts then its focus to the relationships on the shop floor, the nature of the labour and domination relationships and it shows that the workers have many margins of negotiation, in spite of an important resurgence of paternalistic structures combined with weak empirical protections. Then, the thesis makes an ethnography of the techniques and the body commitment involved in the labour process in order to unveil ideologies of labour which constitute the core of a value system which allows to legitimate the hierarchical positions but also to contest it, and allows a social mobility based on skills. But this system is also threatened by the uncertainty of these cultures of mètis in a technological environment which experiments a deep technological mutation and a social context where the valorization of the academic education becomes more and more hegemonic

A ocorrência de acidentes catastróficos faz com que vários organismos internacionais sejam conduzidos à reflexão e à discussão dos danos causados às empresas, aos seres humanos, aos animais e ao meio ambiente. No acidente em Bhopal na Índia, ocorrido no ano de 1984, os prejuízos causados foram e são até hoje incalculáveis. Sejam eles considerados sob diferentes óticas, como por exemplo, a do bem-estar da sociedade, incluindo a saúde pública; a de natureza econômica; e a do meio ambiente, refletindo a perda e/ou a difícil recuperação da biodiversidade. O objetivo desta dissertação é efetuar uma análise ex-post do acidente em Bhopal, tendo como fundamentação teórica os diferentes métodos e técnicas de análise de risco industrial até então desenvolvidos e constantes em publicações científicas. Por outro lado, o presente estudo tem a simples pretensão de contribuir como um instrumento que possa auxiliar e orientar as firmas/indústrias em suas novas instalações e/ou ampliações industriais no que concerne à análise de risco. _________________________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT
The catastrophic accidents occurrence have conduced many international organizations to reflection and to discuss the damages caused to enterprises, people, animals and environment. The impairments caused by the 1984 Bhopal accident in India are incalculable, being them considered by the social welfare viewpoint, including public health; under the Economy viewpoint; under the Ecology loss and/or hard biodiversity retrieval. The aim of this dissertation is to present an ex-post analysis of the Bhopal accident, based on several methods and industrial risk analysis techniques developed, until now, by specialists and presented in scientific journals. Otherwise, this research has the simple pretention to contribute as an instrument which can contribute as a helpful auxiliary instrument to guide firms/industries in their new plants and/or industrial expansion relatively to the risk analysis.

Full textThis PhD thesis deals with the conceptions and the practices within a Sindhi association called Jeev Sewa Sansthan, Institute for the Service of Life. This association is guru-headed. This guru who is named Sant Hirdaram, is supposed to be the author of the motto : “Service of Mankind is the real Service of the Lord. The activities of this association are varied : mass-marriages, schools, eye camps, etc. I study this association through three aspects. Firstly I try to show that this association looks like a caste association; However with the guru, it appears as a non-sectarian-religious movement. Secondly, I try to show through this association that the relation between Sindhis and philanthropy has to be understood within the background of an emphasis on action. Last, I study the conceptions which give the ground to this philanthropy. I show that this kind of philanthropy is a inheritage of the social reformers and more specifically of the interpretation of seva (service) by Vivekanand

Full textThis paperwork deals with the social construction process of the international norm in the chemical safety realm. The point of departure was a local reality -- the occurrence of a major industrial accident --- and its impacts on the international environment. The perception of that reality as a social fact, constructed from a wider environmental awareness or collective acquiescence, was essential. The constitution of that collective awareness is part of the referred social construction process and was politically strengthened by the international community when it assembled in the Stockholm Convention (1972) and the Rio Convention (1992). Following certain constructivist theoretical parameters, the wider ideational and normative scenario, related to environmental questions in the contemporary international relations, was first analysed. Afterwards, the focus was directed towards the social construction of the accident and the norm negotiated. In relation to the civil society organisation and mobilisation, as well as to its influence on state behaviour, it was given emphasis on the role of agents of environmental protection and chemical safety ideas and its organisational platforms. As per its social and empirical importance, it was chosen as object of analysis the major industrial accident, occurred in 1984, in Bhopal, India, and the Convention 174 of the International Labour Organization concerning the Prevention of Major Industrial Accidents.

Full textIncludes bibliographical references.
This thesis attempts to describe dwelling transformations in the case of Bhogal, New Delhi. It is hoped to clarify the links between socio-economic forces and their resultant impact on physical form, through its transformation. The project is a refugee housing program, undertaken by the Government of India in the early 1950's to cope with the large influx of refugees during the partition between India and Pakistan. Over a period of twenty years, the project like other emergency measures , has become permanent. It is rapidly transforming to provide a livable environment. India, like other Third World environments, is on the verge of another emergency, facing unprecedented urban growth. It is obvious that the government with its limited resources, cannot cope with these pressures. There is a general agreement that the government needs to play the role of a "support" rather than a "producer", especially with regard to housing for the lower income groups. The case study exemplifies developments and transformations of existing dwelling environments in Delhi today. It therefore might help to identify some basic principles and directions along which future research might take. The case study provides a useful insight into the circumstances that allow a group of people to upgrade their circumstance both socially and economically with minimum formal assistance. The thesis also attempts to clarify informal linkages and networks that evolve to form a crucial part of the process of upgrading in this environment. This forms the bulk of the argument of the "supportive" role of the government and the need to understand existing linkages and networks to identify areas of intervention.

Full textUntil recently, liability in the field of human rights had only been considered with respect to individuals. Yet, the current economical context reveals a new aspect of the liability matter in the area of human rights. Indeed, violations of human rights are not only held on the account of sovereign states or individuals, but also firms especially transnational coporations. The purpose of our research is to aim at contributing to the study of liability of transnational corporations in international human rights law. The current evolution of transnational corporations is characterized by a state of impunity in international law. The legal framing of these entities lies on soft law, in other words, on a non-restricting normative corpus made up of codes of conduct. These codes of conduct have on one hand an internal basis when they are established by independent groups such as the International Labor Organization (ILO) and Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD). These non-restricting measures cannot respond to the concerns relating to human rights protection in the sphere of transnational corporations. Therefore, a restricting regulation in this area is needed. This is the undergoing perspective which is notably currently undertaken by the project of the United Nations including norms relating to the accountability of transnational corporations in the field of human rights. This pilot project is far from reaching perfection for it does not take into account several legal concepts inherent to the liability of transnational corporations. This includes concepts such as common liability of head firms along with their branches and subcontractors or also the liability of transnational corporations executive. .

This study is according to the assumption of Systems dynamics approach to discuss the definitions of crisis management theory, and believes that there is not only crisis that happened naturally or simply created by human error, but also self-formed crisis by decision maker: Crisis comes from a decision which was right at that time. After complex interaction in the organization structure, this decision could turn into a serious crisis. If we can find out which decision would created crisis like that, or change the wrong structure, manager could put more effort on those crisis that could not be predict, and release the resource burden of management. The conclusions of this study are presented as follows: 1. This study divides crisis into two categories: Crisis that formed gradually and accident. The former could be solved by systematic view. 2. Form the history of studied case, we found that if decision maker didn’t think about what side effect might have in the future, it could trigger some of reinforce loops and cause the crisis. And the reason of why they make the wrong decision is caused by the mental models of what could be right. 3. Each of the Fifth disciplines of learning organization could make the organizations more healthy, it could have chance to avoid all the troubles in this case study, and keep the decision makers and members of organization from making wrong decision according to their mental models.

Abstract Buddhism is highly prevalent in Thailand (a country of kasaya). Being the state religion there are a great deal of followers across the nation, including the Emperor and the royal families. The numerous pagodas, temples and monks have become the three major characteristics of Thailand. Contemporary Mahayana Buddhism was introduced to Thailand by Vietnam and China at the end of the 18th century. The First Patriarch of Chinese Buddhist Sect, Monk Hsu Hsing, built Yung Fu Temple and remodeled Kan Lu Temple. After that, he built the first temple of Chinese Buddhist Sect, Lung Lien Temple, which already has around one hundred and fifty years of history. The Chinese Buddhism was introduced and combined and localized with the local Theravada Buddhism. Under the guidance and hard efforts of the seven Patriarchs of the Chinese Buddhist Sect, Chinese Buddhism has become a very crucial part of Mahayana Buddhism among the three main sects in Thailand. The subject research aims to explore the formation, inheritance, development, and future plans of the Chinese Buddhist Sect in Thailand. The contents of each chapter are as follows: Chapter One, the preface, expounds the motivation and scope of the study, research methodology, literature review and discussion, study limits, research framework and the summary to each chapter. Chapter Two introduces the history of Buddhism in Thailand and the development of the Chinese Buddhist Sect in Thailand: a sketch to Thai Buddhist characteristics, a review of the historical documents and its characteristics about the Chinese Buddhist Sect, the status quo investigation on Bhoman-Khunaram Temple, the Muen Buddha Temple, and the Fo En Zen Temple. Chapter Three introduces the status quo and the legal basis of the Chinese Buddhist Sect in Thai Buddhism, the powers, status and selection of a patriarch of the Chinese Buddhist Sect, and the establishment and operation of the committee members. Chapter Four introduces the temples of the Chinese Buddhist Sect and the architectural design of Bhoman-Khunaram Temple, including the front yard of the mountain door, the Great King Temple, the main Temple (Ubosot), Vihara Buraphacharn, Kuan Im Temple, the Vihara of “Kasitikharbha” Bodhisattva, and the Canon House, etc. Chapter Five introduces the stories of the seven patriarchs, including how they preached, the reasons behind building the temples, why they were respected by Thai people, and how the Thai Monk Imperial and Thai Emperor canonized and conferred aristocratic titles to the patriarchs. Chapter Six introduces the education and the practice of the Chinese Buddhist Sect: how they establisheded Tzu En junior high school, Lung Lien junior high school, Pu Te junior high school to foster talents, what the concepts and plans for the future Sangha University are, and the five lessons, regular lessons, the methods of practice in Bhoman-Khunaram Temple. Chapter Seven introduces the financial resources of Bhoman-Khunaram Temple, which are mainly from the followers’ donations, as well as the job and the duties of Sanghas. Chapter Eight introduces not only the history but the characteristics of Thai Buddhism and Chinese Buddhist Sect Mahayana Buddhism, and some personal opinions on the issues such as the cultivation of talents, popularization of Chinese education, localization of the Chinese educators, dharma propagation by the use of modern network technology, and so forth. Overseas field study and interview of Thai Chinese Buddhist Sect has its limits and difficulties. The revolution of Sanghas by Thai Ven. Bodh-Chaeng ensured the Chinese Buddhist Sect a crucial position in Thailand. That is a heritage to Ven.Yen-Teck and to the millions of Thai followers. It is worthy of continuous further study. Keywords:The Chinese BuddhismSect. Ven. Bodh-Chaeng.Ven.Yen-Teck. Lung Lien Temple. Bhoman-Khunaram Temple.the Muen Buddha Temple.
