O presente trabalho insere-se nas discussões acerca da juventude e mundo do trabalho na atual sociedade capitalista, concentrando-se especificamente sobre as implicações da Lei 10.097/2000, a Lei da Aprendizagem sobre a formação profissional de jovens aprendizes. Realizou-se uma análise do trabalho do adolescente aprendiz participante dos programas de aprendizagem, regidos pela referida Lei, lançando mão das categorias analíticas de Marx sobre o trabalho, apresentadas na sua obra O Capital. Para isso, foi realizado um estudo de casos em duas empresas públicas de Santa Catarina, a CELESC e o Banco do Brasil, investigando-se os seus Programas de Aprendizagem desenvolvidos em parceria com o Centro de Integração Empresa Escola - CIEE. Constatou-se que os Programas de Aprendizagem configuram-se em uma formação profissional restrita de caráter pragmático, utilitarista, voltada para o treinamento de trabalhadores para execução de tarefas simples e rotineiras. Observou-se que o trabalho precoce é imposto aos adolescentes pela sua condição sócio-econômica desvantajosa, pois as "motivações" que os impulsionam ao trabalho giram em torno do atendimento das necessidades básicas de sobrevivência e complementação da renda familiar. Destaca-se ainda que a inserção profissional precoce resulta em abandono dos estudos. As trajetórias profissionais dos ex-aprendizes demonstram que o Programa contribui para a permanência no mundo do trabalho para uma parcela dos jovens pesquisados. No entanto, não é possível identificar ascensão profissional pós-programa, considerando que as ocupações dos jovens trabalhadores não diferem muito das suas ocupações enquanto aprendiz. Por fim, destacam-se as contradições encontradas, os limites dos Programas de Aprendizagem e das Políticas Públicas compensatórias, considerando-se as possibilidades de uma formação profissional ampla do trabalhador

Esta tese analisa trajetórias universitárias de jovens das camadas populares, a partir da compreensão das estratégias adotadas no processo de formação no Ensino Superior. Partiu-se da hipótese de que os estudantes não ocupam a mesma posição na Universidade, no sentido de que há diferenças na composição de capitais que cada um detém (sobretudo, o econômico), o que impactaria sua graduação. Na sociologia da educação, a noção de posição é mobilizada por Pierre Bourdieu, importante referencial teórico adotado, que explicita justamente o fato de existir um lugar, a partir do qual, os estudantes, as faculdades e as instituições de ensino são hierarquizados e distinguidos no meio social. Metodologicamente, realizou-se pesquisa de campo, sob a perspectiva comparativa, nos cinco cursos de graduação mais concorridos e nos cinco cursos menos concorridos da Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, mediante a aplicação de questionários com os formandos do ano de 2014 (150 estudantes). Na sequência, realizaram-se entrevistas semi-estruturadas com os estudantes provenientes das classes populares. A análise da amostra inicial composta pelas dez turmas foi feita em quatro estágios: (1) descrição individual de cada curso; (2) comparação entre cursos mais concorridos e menos concorridos; (3) apreciação conjunta dos dados relativos às dez turmas; (4) discussão dos dados dos alunos das camadas populares de todos os cursos. Na etapa de entrevista, após a caracterização geral dos alunos, examinou-se detalhadamente o seu percurso no Ensino Superior. Em síntese, apurou-se que os alunos das classes populares tendem a se concentrar nos cursos de graduação menos prestigiosos e menos rentáveis; ao passo que, nos cursos de alta seletividade e maior status, ainda são exceções. Eles demonstram consciência, embora frágil, da competição por melhores posições na hierarquia universitária, com vistas à entrada futura no mercado de trabalho na área de titulação. Entendem que ampliaram os capitais cultural e social, os campos de atuação profissional futura e sua possibilidade de retorno financeiro; porém, sentem-se menos habilitados à realização profissional que os colegas de estratos mais favorecidos. Verificou-se um tipo particular de presença das famílias durante os estudos, principalmente, em termos de apoio afetivo e custeio das necessidades básicas, com a ressalva de que se trata da porção menos desprivilegiada das classes populares. Há uma responsabilização, em alto grau, por parte dos alunos, pelo seu destino escolar, o que demanda elevado investimento pessoal e autodeterminação. Os estudantes experienciam o multipertencimento social entre o meio de origem e o campo universitário e se deparam com a oportunidade do desenraizamento . Contudo, também desenvolvem um sentido da sua posição, já que reconhecem parcialmente os limites que a sua origem popular impõe à rentabilização do diploma. Daí se dizer que as cartas são jogadas muito cedo (BOURDIEU), pois as estratégias de escolarização que focalizam as disposições de um indivíduo para o futuro dependem não só da classe social e de sua posição nela, como também do sentido da trajetória coletiva de seu grupo e do sentido nela inscrito da sua própria trajetória particular. Se as classes populares não saem da Universidade nas mesmas posições que as demais é porque a igualdade de oportunidades , conforme prescreve a meritocracia, não é sinônimo da igualdade de posições , visto que são as posições que determinam as oportunidades.
This thesis analyzes university trajectories of young people fromworking classes, based on the understanding of the adoptedstrategies in university education. The initial hypothesis is thatstudents do not occupy the same "position" at the University, inthe sense that there are differences in the capital composition ofeach (especially economic), which would impact their graduation.In the sociology of education, the notion of "position" is mobilizedby Pierre Bourdieu, important theoretical referential adopted,which precisely explains there is a ranking of students, collegesand educational institutions in the social environment.Methodologically, a field research was done, in a comparativeperspective, with the five most competitive graduation coursesand the five least-attended courses at the Universidade Federalde Santa Catarina, by applying questionnaires to graduates of theyear 2014 (150 students). After, the students from workingclasses were interviewed. The analysis of the initial sample withthe ten classes was made in four stages: (1) individual descriptionof each course; (2) comparison between the most competitiveand least competitive courses; (3) joint assessment of data on theten classes; (4) students working classes' data discussion of allcourses. In the interview stage, after the general characterizationof the students, it was examined in detail his journey in highereducation. In short, it was found that students of lower classestend to focus on undergraduate courses less prestigious and lessprofitable; whereas, in high selectivity and higher status courses,are still exceptions. They demonstrate consciousness, thoughfragile, competition for better positions in the university hierarchy,with a view to future entry into the labor market. They understandthat expanded the cultural and social capital, the fields of futureprofessional activities and its possibility of financial return;however, they feel less empowered to professional achievementthat colleagues of more advantaged classes. There was aparticular kind of presence of the families during the studies,especially in terms of emotional support and cost of basic needs,with the proviso that it is the less underprivileged portion of theworking classes. The students feel responsible for their schooldestination, which demand high personal investment and selfdetermination.Students experience the social multiple belongingbetween the home environment and the university campus and are faced with the opportunity of "uprooting". However, the students also develop a sense of their position, as partially recognize the limits to its popular origin imposes on the profitability of the diploma. That is why: "the cards are played too early" (Bourdieu), because education strategies that focus on the provisions of an individual for the future depend not only on social class and their position in it, but also the sense of collective journey of their group and the direction it entered its own particular path. If the popular classes do not leave the University in the same positions than the others it is because the "equal opportunities", as prescribed meritocracy, is not synonymous for "equal positions", as are the positions that determine the opportunities.

La trascendencia de la música en el Perú va más allá del carácter estético que pueda adoptar por cada región en la que se genera. Su importancia recae en la capacidad de establecerse como un generador de identidad nacional y promotor industrial. En este contexto la experimentación musical y la difusión son dos aspectos que deben ser atendidos, comprendiendo la problemática actual de la industria musical en nuestro país. El Centro de Experimentación y Difusión de Música Contemporánea propone un emplazamiento estratégico para el desarrollo musical con importante riqueza paisajística dada su ubicación frente a un gran parque como es el “Campo de Marte” en el distrito de Jesús María en la ciudad de Lima, entorno que aporta favorablemente al desempeño de las actividades del usuario. Así también su relación directa con el Centro Cultural Sérvulo Gutiérrez enriquece el programa del proyecto. El proyecto por su parte dota de servicios al parque y a la comunidad. La investigación contempla marco teórico, proyectos referenciales, usuario, estudio del lugar, parámetros de diseño y programa arquitectónico; proponiendo así una solución programática y arquitectónica que pone en valor el producto artístico-cultural nacional, a sus autores, ejecutantes y promotores, atendiendo a su vez los requerimientos de una industria que potencia la identidad nacional y que contribuye con el desarrollo económico del país.The transcendence of Music in Peru goes beyond the aesthetic value provided by its regional origin. Its importance relies in its capacity to serve as a conduit for national identity and a generator of economic growth. In this context, experimentation and diffusion of music are two aspects that must be broached with special attention given the intricate reality of the music industry in our country. The “Contemporary Music Center for Experimentation and Broadcasting” is a strategically located venue for the development and appreciation of music which offers rich landscapes and amenities as it is located across from “El Campo de Marte” and “Centro Cultural Sérvulo Gutiérrez” in the city of Jesus María, Lima. Hence, this architectural project provides both the community and the national reserve park with services. The investigation includes theoretical framework, referential projects, user, site analysis, design parameters and an architectural brief to present a well-substantiated programmatic and architectural initiative which goal is to enhance the artistic and cultural experience for the community.

A presente dissertação de mestrado estuda a possibilidade de novas experiências políticas ao nível da burocracia do Estado. Desenvolve um "estudo de caso" a partir da experiência da Prefeitura Municipal de Porto Alegre, denominada "Orçamento Participativo", em que a estrutura da burocracia municipal cedeu espaço para a realização de uma experiência política, cujo desenvolvimento se manifesta através de um processo de preparação das leis plurianuais, orçamentos anuais e sua tradução no plano de investimentos. Trata-se de um processo de planejamento no qual o governo local compartilha das decisões de sua competência com as associações comunitárias, especialmente com um conselho formado por membros eleitos nas assembléias públicas realizadas em 16 regiões administrativas, nas quais foi dividida a cidade, e em 5 Plenárias Temáticas. A revisão da literatura enfoca 3 premissas básicas sob as quais descansa o conteúdo da dissertação. A primeira, contida no Capítulo I, preocupa-se em compreender a organização burocrática, uma vez que é com base nesse "tipo" que se estrutura a Administraçao Pública. A segunda premissa preocupa-se com o Orçamento Público. Para tal, o Capítulo II promove sua característica evolutiva comentando seus aspectos político, econômico, administrativo e técnico. O capítulo III cuida com exclusividade do aspecto jurídico, informando os princípios e normas da matéria. Por fim, destacamos a experiência de participação popular na elaboração do Orçamento Público, acentuando sua possibilidade de realização face à utilização da burocracia que, cedendo espaços, permitiu uma nova engenharia política de recepção das prioridades da comunidade: o Orçamento Participativo. Sua descrição compreende: a) histórico e conceitos operacionais; b) demonstração esquemática da estrutura, calendário e processo; c) reuniões e critérios de atendimento das demandas. É o que se abstrai dos Capítulos IV e V. Como conclusão, o autor sustenta que a experiência do Orçamento Participativo: (I ) É fruto de uma decisão política que soube utilizar-se da burocracia; (II) tem legitimidade e não fere os princípios, normas e regras do Direito; (III) é um modelo de planejamento que envolve o Governo e a comunidade organizada.

Full textAbstract:
This dissertation details original work focused on the DNA adduct N2-(1-carboxyethyl)-2'-deoxyguanosine (CEdG). This DNA adduct results from the spontaneous reaction of DNA with the endogenous and exogenous formed, carbohydrate-derived, reactive carbonyl species, methylglyoxal. Using in vitro steady state kinetics, we have shown that CEdG in template DNA leads to DNA miscoding effects when the model replicative polymerase, exonuclease-free Klenow fragment (KF-) is used. The development, validation and application of a novel stable isotope dilution, triple quadrupole mass spectrometric method for the quantitation of CEdG is also detailed. This method was used to quantitate CEdG in urine from diabetic rats, urine from human patients, human tumor and adjacent biopsy tissue, diabetic animal tissue and DNA treated with methylglyoxal. Finally, we detail the adaptation, validation and application of a novel, commercially-available microfluidic HPLC-chip for increased sensitivity in the quantitation of CEdG and also apply it to the quantitation of the RNA analogue, CEG. Combined, these studies establish CEdG as a potential biomarker for glycation and point to a viable avenue for connecting chronic glycolytic flux with genetic instability.

Previous issue date: 2013The guiding aspect of this paper starts from the dialogue between Theology and Psychology on the semantics of death, the psychological processes emerging from mourning – mainly in the violent loss of a child – and how the faith in the Resurrection can assist in becoming resilient in this time of grief and loss. The survey places emphasis on the concept of death and resurrection in Theology, taking, as its starting point, the death of Christ and its meaning for the Christian, the human finitude, and Christian hope in the resurrection and eternal life. The study is based on the reflection of theologians and psychologists addressing the topic in question. A field survey with twenty mothers in mourning was held, the analysis of which shows significant aspects for an interdisciplinary activity, demonstrating the relevance of the theme in offering contribution for Theology in its pastoral action, and as science, which seeks to understand the mystery of human life in all its dimensions and stages: from beginning to end of life.

Full textAbstract:
L’avènement des techniques de communication a engendré deux conceptions des récepteurs du message artistique : soit ils sont des victimes potentielles du contenu de ces messages, soit ils sont des pirates prêt à piller l’artiste. Le droit de recevoir est ainsi demeuré un élément contingent à l’heure où la liberté artistique, elle, a connu une valorisation particulière devant la Cour EDH. L’étude de la liberté artistique à travers le prisme du récepteur a, en priorité, pour but de rompre avec une conception globalisante du public par une contextualisation de l’échange artistique. Cette thèse cherche donc à mettre en relief le caractère polymorphe des modalités de réception et la variabilité de son impact. Cette réflexion tente de distinguer le public, des publics qui s’opposent et du récepteur individuel en fonction de messages qui se proposent ou qui s’imposent. Une large place est alors accordée à la liberté de choix afin de développer une individualité de la réception dans le respect du pluralisme des sensibilités. Cette étude n’a pas pour autant vocation à affirmer la suprématie du droit de recevoir, l’omnipotence des récepteurs et l’aliénation de l’artiste. Le droit de recevoir se définit aussi par sa confrontation aux nouvelles données technologiques et aux droits concurrents. Pour ce faire, cette thèse aborde la question de la conciliation du droit de recevoir aux droits d’auteur, à la liberté de création et de communication, aux droits des intermédiaires de diffusion. En outre, la spécificité du message artistique permet d’étendre la réflexion sur le droit à la réception par la mise en exergue de convergences avec les droits à la culture, à la diversité et à l’éducation. Cette thèse, à travers le développement des droits et des devoirs des récepteurs, propose une conception du juste équilibre entre les droits des différents acteurs de la liberté artistiqueThe advent of the communication technologies engendered two conceptions of the artistic message receivers: either they’re potential victims of the contents of these messages, or they are pirates loan to plunder the artist. The right to receive is a contingent element when the artistic freedom knew a particular valuation by the ECHR. The study of the artistic freedom through the prism of the receiver has, first and foremost, for purpose to break with an all-embracing conception of the public by putting in context the artistic exchange. This thesis tries to accentuate the polymorphic character of the reception modalities and the variability of its impact. This reflection tries to distinguish the public, publics and the individual receiver according to messages which propose or which are imperative. A wide place is then granted to the freedom of choice to develop an individuality of the reception in the respect for the pluralism. This study doesn’t assert the ascendancy of the right to receive, the omnipotence of the receivers and the alienation of the artist. The right to receive also defines itself by its confrontation to the NICT and to the currents rights. This thesis approaches the question of the conciliation of the right to receive with the copyright, freedom of creation and communication and rights of the intermediaries of broadcasting. Besides, the specificity of the artistic message allows widening the reflection on the right to the reception by the convergences with cultural rights, the right to diversity and the right to education. This thesis, through the development of the rights and duties of the receivers, proposes a conception of the just balance between the rights of the various actors of the artistic freedom

Full textAbstract:
Le droit international privé poursuit deux objectifs généraux : l'un tourné vers l'ordre international en développant sa cohérence et sa fluidité malgré le phénomène de la frontière ; l'autre orienté vers l'ordre interne en assurant sa cohésion et la défense de ses valeurs essentielles. Celles-ci se nourrissent naturellement des droits garantis par la CEDH créant ainsi un risque de déséquilibre de la discipline, l'une seulement de ses finalités bénéficiant d'un renforcement. Pourtant, la discontinuité des ordres juridiques n'est pas à craindre. La CEDH exerce une influence qui dépasse la seule protection du for requis. Elle contribue à l'affermissement de l'ordre international. Elle réduit les hypothèses de lacunes et de cumuls en prohibant le déni de justice et en participant à la détermination du juge internationalement compétent. De plus, elle fournit une béquille aux situations boiteuses puisque le défaut de reconnaissance des situations cristallisées à l'étranger constitue une ingérence dans les droits qu'elle énonce. Dès lors, la tension entre les finalités internes et internationales ne saurait se résoudre systématiquement au profit des premières. La hiérarchie cède sa place à la conciliation. Or, cette dernière s'opère eu égard aux spécificités de la matière. En ce sens, l'objectif de protection diffuse une version aménagée du standard conventionnel, conçue différemment selon que la norme étrangère provient d'un autre État partie ou d'un État tiers. Promotion des finalités internationales et mise en œuvre compréhensive des finalités internes, telles sont les deux pôles autour desquels s'articule une rencontre féconde entre le droit international privé et la CEDHPrivate international law pursues two general goals : one tends to develop the coherence and the fluidity of international legal order despite the phenomenon of the frontier ; and the other tends to insure the cohesion and the essential values of the inner legal order. These essential values naturally nourish rights guaranteed by ECHR, thus creating an imbalance risk in the subject, where only one of its goal ends out to be strengthened. The discontinuity of legal orders is though not to be feared. ECHR exerts an influence which exceeds the protection alone of the forum. It contributes to the strengthening of the international order. It reduces the chances of deficiencies and accumulations by prohibing denials of justice and by helping to the determination of the judge who has international jurisdiction. Furthermore, it responds to clumsy situations since the defect of recognition of foreign crystallized situations constitutes an interference in the rights it advocates. Consequently, the tension between the inner and the international goals of private international law will not systematically be solved to the advantage of the first. Hierarchy yields to conciliation. Now, the latter acts according to features of the subject. In this sense, the goal of protection leads to an adjusted version of the conventional standard which is seen differently when the foreign norm comes from another State part of the Convention, or from a third State. Promotion of international goal and broad implementation of inner goals, such are the two areas where private international law and ECHR law richly meet

O presente estudo buscou apreender parte da realidade social retratada na Decisão Fundamentada da Agência Antidoping dos Estados Unidos (USADA), na qual foram descritas todas as violações as normas do antidoping cometidas pelo respeitado e reverenciado ciclista Lance Armstrong e sua equipe a U.S. Postal. Para tal, baseou-se na análise dos testemunhos dos ex-ciclistas da referida equipe, o Código da Agência Mundial Antidoping (AMA-WADA), o histórico dos testes antidoping realizados pelo atleta, a Investigação Independente promovida pela União Ciclística Internacional sobre o teste positivo para EPO nas amostras coletadas do desportista durante o Tour de France de 1999 e o relatório técnico do teste positivo para EPO nas amostras do mesmo ano, todos estes documentos anexados a referida Decisão. Adotando uma perspectiva teórica e metodológica oriunda da sociologia simétrica de Bruno Latour, podemos perceber que a confirmação do doping do desportista só foi possível graças ao trabalho de um conjunto de híbridos tecnológicos, os quais revelaram a presença de inúmeros actantes ilícitos performando e delimitando as práticas do atleta. Deste modo, imprimiu-se um novo olhar sobre a carreira do ciclista, tendo em vista a interação deste com os seus aliados EPO (eritropoietina), Cortisona, Testosterona, Doping Sanguíneo, Actoveig, entre outros híbridos que serão apresentados no decorrer da análise. Recontar a história do ciclista sob a ótica de seus alistamentos nos fez perceber que o ciclismo, por ele praticado, não existe sem a concorrência dos distintos não-humanos que ajudam a estabilizar seu conceito, como prática desportiva. Em si tratando das provas científicas que embasaram a Decisão Fundamentada da USADA, observou-se os momentos de produção e significação da realidade nos quais o idioma performativo do doping remodelou o conceito de ciclismo profissional, praticado por Armstrong e muitos outros de sua geração.

Abstract The cedi is Ghana’s official currency which was introduced on July 19, 1965. The loss in the value of the cedi since its introduction cannot be overestimated. Owing to the low values of the notes and coins(due to persistent loss in value), huge quantities had to be printed and minted resulting in huge cost to the central bank. Meanwhile commercial banks were facing high cash based transaction cost because relatively large quantities of notes were needed for transactions. There was also high risk involved in cash based transaction to the banks and their clients. Bank customers were becoming more uncomfortable carrying huge quantities of cash to and from the banks. These customers also had to spend more time at the banking halls to get served. These and other factors reduced the interest and confidence of the general public in the financial sector affecting banking businesses. The re denomination of the cedi was done in 2007, to deal with these ’huge dead-weight burden’ on the banks and the entire economy of Ghana. The objective of this study is to explore its impact on some variables affecting commercial banking businesses. These are cost, operational risk, deposit mobilization, ATM operations, and reliability and convenience of banking services. A pluralistic approach was adopted for this research and the results of both the quantitative and qualitative study done in analyzing my hypothesis reaffirmed each other and provided valuable findings and deeper understanding of the impact of the re denomination on the business of the financial institutions. The main findings showed the following: 1) The re denomination had not affected costs in banks, 2) The re denomination has generally reduced operational loss risks, 3) The re denomination has generally improved deposit mobilization, 4) The re denomination has improved the reliability and profitability of ATM s, 5) The re denomination has improved the reliability and convenience of banking services. With this study I hope to provide new insights on how re denomination affects the business of financial institutions who are key partners to the central banks in the successful implementation of such exercise. I also hope to provide valuable recommendations on how banks can deal with the challenges that may be presented by a re denomination+233-024-6734104

Full textAbstract:
Atualmente, é notável a expansão do oferecimento de aulas de inglês para crianças pequenas no Brasil. As modalidades disponíveis no mercado são variadas e os pais que se interessam por elas podem optar por cursos específicos de língua estrangeira, escolas internacionais, bilíngues, ou até mesmo escolas regulares que ofereçam aulas de inglês incluídas em suas grades curriculares. De qualquer maneira, todas elas são acessíveis quase que exclusivamente por meio do ensino privado. Ancorados nos pressupostos da Análise do Discurso desenvolvidos na França (Pêcheux, 1975), e no Brasil (Orlandi, 2001; Coracini, 1998),analisamos as representações de criança, língua estrangeira e ensino de língua estrangeira presentes nos dizeres da legislação brasileira, da mídia (reportagens e sites institucionais) e de coordenadoras da área, buscando compreender de que forma as justificativas da inclusão desse componente curricular se materializam e com quais sentidos se relacionam. Esta análise nos permitiu depreender certas regularidades nos sentidos: em primeiro lugar, as representações de criança veiculam duas perspectivas dominantes: a de um ser passivo, que aprende rápido por não realizar processos mentais complexos e uma outra relacionada à ideia de um trabalhador em potencial. Em segundo lugar, quanto às representações de ensino de LE, há dizeres que referem o processo de aprendizagem como absorção, ou, então, modelagem de comportamentos. As representações de LE, por sua vez, remetem majoritariamente a um sentido de garantia de sucesso da vida profissional. Finalmente, pudemos concluir que a prática do ensino de inglês para crianças emerge de uma cadeia discursiva cujos sentidos estão maciçamente alinhados com os dizeres do mercado neoliberal. A análise das justificativas pedagógicas do ensino de inglês para crianças tornou-se, uma análise das projeções da criança no mercado de trabalho e da naturalização da lógica capitalista para a formação e preparação das crianças de elite. Assim, parece que o mais cedo do aprendizado linguístico coincide com o mais cedo da aceitação das práticas do mercado na educação e também da euforização da produtividade, excluindo, até da mais precoce infância, o acesso ao ócio ou a não-obrigatoriedade da produção.Currently there is a remarkable expansion of English courses for young children in Brazil. There are several modalities available and among them parents may choose from foreign language courses, international and bilingual schools up to schools where English classes are provided in their curricula. Nevertheless, they are all available almost exclusively through private education. Relying on Discourse Analysis assumptions (Pêcheux, 1975; Orlandi, 2001; Coracine, 1998), we have analyzed the representations of children, foreign language and foreign language teaching in the utterances of Brazilian legislation, in the media (reports and institutional sites) as well as in pedagogical coordinators talk, aiming at understanding how the justifications for the inclusion of this curricular component materialize in the discourse, and what senses they relate to. The analysis enabled us to identify certain sense regularities. Firstly, representations of children point to two dominant meanings: one which refers to the belief that they learn fast because they do not perform complex mental processes, and another related to the fact that they are potential workers. Regarding the representations of English teaching, the sayings refer to the learning process as absorption or behavior modeling. The second one concerns representations of English that refer mostly to its sense as a guarantee of success in professional life. Finally, we concluded that the practice of teaching English to children emerges from a discursive chain whose senses are overwhelmingly aligned with the utterances of the neoliberal market. Our analysis of the justifications for teaching English to school children has revealed itself the analysis of projections of the child into the labor market and the naturalization of capitalist logic in the education and the upbringing of elite children. Thus, it seems that the \"early\" language learning coincides with the \"early\" acceptance of market practices in education, as well as the valorization of productivity, preventing, from the earliest childhood, access to idleness or the right to non-compulsory production engagements.

Full textAbstract:
Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM) studies have been carried out of emitter regions in polysilicon contacted emitter bipolar transistors. The preparation of suitable TEM thin foils is described. In addition a technique is developed for the observation and quant jtative interpretation of the break-up of the interfacial oxide layers observed in these samples. The effect of annealing the samples prior to emitter dopant implantation (pre-annealing) is investigated for phosphorus and arsenic doped samples, implanted into a polysilicon layer 0.4μm thick, with a dose of 1x1016cm2. Two wafer pre-cleans have been used prior to polysilicon deposition to produce a thin oxide (0-8Å) and a thicker oxide (14Å). In the presence of the thinner oxide, the phosphorus doped samples enhance epitaxial regrowth of the polysilicon layer compared with the arsenic doped or undoped samples. In the presence of the thicker oxide, no difference is observed between the samples. A mechanism is proposed to explain this. The mechanisms controlling the gain of a phosphorus doped device are investigated and a model proposed to explain the observed electrical characteristics. It is concluded that there are two mechanisms responsible for the observed supression of hole current. Firstly tunnelling through the interfacial oxide and secondly some blocking effect of the interface. Carrier transport in the polysilicon is not believed to contribute to this supression. A dopant sensitive etch has been applied to TEM thin foils containing fully processed emitters in state-of-the-art devices. The shape of the emitter dopant distribution is revealed in such devices for the first time, and a 2-D profile is obtained from the emitter. It is shown that reduction in the emitter depth to 8OOÅ or less does not alter the emitter dopant geometry. The technique is demonstrated to be capable of resolving spatial separations of dopant iso-concentration contours of 100Å or less.

Full textAbstract:
La tesi analizza i rapporti tra l’ordinamento italiano e la Cedu, in particolare la collocazione della Cedu all’interno del sistema delle fonti alla luce della modifica dell’art. 117, comma 1 Cost. Si tratta di un tema molto dibattuto in dottrina, specialmente a seguito dell’entrata in vigore del Trattato di Lisbona. Questa tematica risulta strettamente connessa al profilo dell’interazione tra la Corte di Strasburgo e la Corte costituzionale e i giudici ordinari. L’analisi del profilo statico concernente lo status della Cedu nel sistema italiano deve quindi essere accompagnata dall’esame del profilo dinamico, relativo al ruolo della giurisprudenza della Corte di Strasburgo nell’esperienza dell’ordinamento nazionale. Entrambi i profili di indagine sono esaminati alla luce delle indicazioni provenienti dalla giurisprudenza della Corte costituzionale, della Corte di Cassazione e della Corte di Strasburgo. Prima di essere esaminate singolarmente, queste tematiche richiedono la preliminare ricognizione dei termini della dicotomia tra i due modelli concettuali di riferimento in tema di rapporti interordinamentali: il monismo e il dualismo. Trasferite nel peculiare contesto del sistema Cedu, tali categorie dogmatiche si arricchiscono di ulteriori profili, che esorbitano dalla sistemazione del rapporto tra fonti. La tenuta dei due paradigmi concettuali, che sono nati ed operano nel contesto della teorica delle fonti, deve essere verificata anche rispetto all’attuale fenomeno della produzione europea di diritto giurisprudenziale ed alla capacità paradigmatica assunta dalla giurisprudenza di Strasburgo. Il diritto e le istituzioni giuridiche tendono ad assumere sempre più sembianze giurisdizionali, generando un’osmosi che porta a trasferire il focus dai rapporti interordinamentali ai rapporti tra giurisprudenze.The research topic relates to the relationship between the Italian legal system and the ECHR, in particular the formal position of the ECHR in the national hierarchy of legal norms, in light of the amendment of Article 117 Const. This issue is very debated among scholars, especially following the entry into force of the Lisbon Treaty. This matter is strictly linked to the problem of the interaction between the Strasbourg Court and the ICC and ordinary judges. In other words, the analysis of the ‘static’ profile concerning the status of the ECHR in the Italian legal order must be accompanied by the examination of the ‘dynamic’ profile, relating to the role of Strasbourg Court’s case-law in the experience of the domestic legal system. Both of these issues follow from the Constitutional case law. Therefore, they will be dealt with in light of the rulings of the ICC, Court of Cassation and Strasbourg Court. Before being examined individually, these topics require the preliminary examination of the terms of the dichotomy between the two theoretic models in matter of relationship between international and national law: the monism and the dualism. Transferred to the peculiar context of the ECHR, these categories are enriched by more dogmatic profiles, which go beyond the sole matter of the relationship between sources of law. The strength of the two theoretical paradigms - that have been born and work in the context of sources of law - must also be checked with reference to the current phenomenon of European production of case law. The law and the legal institutions tend to take more and more jurisdictional shape, generating osmosis leading to the transfer of the focus from relationships between sources of law to the relationships between jurisprudences.

A constituição de estudo acerca da ritmicidade biológica do indivíduo, e sua expressão social no mundo contemporâneo foi objetivo desta dissertação, ela integra as Ciências Humanas com as Ciências Biológicas. Estuda-se a construção cultural da virtude relacionada ao trabalho intenso e extenuante, faz-se isso analisando inicialmente o processo histórico na transição do feudalismo para o capitalismo mercantil até o capitalismo contemporâneo. No decorrer desta construção histórica, observa-se a inversão de valores voltados ao trabalho, que de castigo torna-se virtude. Essa transformação está associada a conflitos e revoluções de ordem religiosa e econômica. A relação trabalho-tempo se transforma de um modo de produção tradicional, no feudalismo, no qual o tempo do trabalho é o tempo da terra, é o tempo do plantar e do colher, é o tempo da natureza para uma relação trabalho-tempo ditada por salários, pelo sincronismo das máquinas, pela doutrinação religiosa, pelo controle dos horários e pela coação da lei. Essa relação trabalho-tempo que emerge no capitalismo mercantil reverbera nos dias atuais através do fenômeno ideológico moldado nos últimos quatro séculos por meio de mecanismos semelhantes, econômicos, religiosos e legais. De forma que contemporaneamente, de forma geral, se entende que quanto mais tempo se dedica ao trabalho, quanto mais cedo se acorda para trabalhar mais virtuoso é o indivíduo. Por lado quanto mais tarde se acorda para trabalhar e quanto mais se invade a noite para o lazer mais vagabundo. No entanto de uma área da Biologia surgida nos meados do século XX; a Cronobiologia, emerge o conhecimento sobre o tempo biológico que surge então como elemento adicional para se pensar o tempo e o trabalho. O tempo na cronobiologia é a integração entre o tempo dos organismos e o tempo da natureza, do dia e da noite, é o dia interior ajustado ao dia exterior. É, portanto individual, é genético e ontogênico. Os horários sociais nos quais se exerce as rotinas de trabalho nem sempre estão em harmonia com o tempo biológico o que leva parte da população a uma espécie de desarranjo temporal ou a pratica de horários não triviais como acordar nas primeiras horas da tarde, por exemplo. Imposições temporais como o horário de verão, horário de aula para alunos, turnos de trabalhos invertidos, não levam em consideração resultados de estudos de grande parte da literatura na área de cronobiologia, e resultam em consequências para a saúde da população. Assim concluímos que estigmatizar quem pratica horários incomuns ou estabelecer uma rigidez de horários nos quais se deve exercer atividades como trabalho ou dormir são construções ideológicas historicamente determinadas, as quais o saber cronobiológico descontrói, pois a compreensão do tempo biológico resulta em entender sua adaptabilidade no contexto dos horários sociais. Além disso, entende se que são necessárias Políticas Públicas relacionadas a intervenções nos horários de trabalho e educação do quotidiano que levem em consideração estes novos conhecimentos surgidos no final do século XX que terão papel preventivo em doenças contemporâneas como câncer e doenças psiquiátricasThe study of individual biological rhythmicity and its social expression in the contemporary world was objective of this dissertation, which integrates Human and Biological sciences. We have studied the cultural construction of virtue related to intense and hard work. We analyzed initially the historical process of the transition from feudalism to the mercantile capitalism and to contemporary capitalism. During this process there were an inversion of values; the work from punishment becomes virtue. This transformation is associated with conflicts and revolutions of religious and economic order. The relationship \"work-time\" changes from a traditionalist production method, in feudalism, in which working time is the time of the land, is the time of planting and harvest, is the time of nature, to a temporal relationship dictated by wages, the timing of machines, by religious indoctrination, by schedule control and enforcement of the law. This working time relationship that emerges in mercantile capitalism reverberates today through an ideological phenomenon in the last four centuries, through similar, economic, religious and legal mechanisms. Contemporaneously, in general, it is understood that the more time is devoted to work, the sooner one agrees to work more virtuous he is. On the other side who wakes up to work at noon and breaks the night for leisure is a vagabond . However an area of Biology that emerged in the mid-twentieth century, the Chronobiology, brings knowledge about the biological timing as an additional element to think about the time and work. Time in chronobiology is the integration between the time of nature day and night, and time of body , is the day inside adjusted to the day outside. It is, therefore, individual, it is genetic and ontogenetic. Social schedules and work routines are not always in harmony with the biological timing what leads people either to a kind of temporal misalignment or to practice nontrivial temporal schedules like waking up in the afternoon, for example. Time impositions for daylight saving time, class time for students, inverted shifts to workers, do not take into account the results of most studies of chronobiology literature and result in consequences for the health of the population. Thus, we can conclude that stigmatize those who practice unusual times or set a rigid schedule to carrying out activities such as work or to sleep are ideological constructions historically determined, which the knowledge in Chronobiology deconstructs since it can interpreted that the understanding of biological timing allows to understand its adaptability to social context. We also considered that public policies related to interventions in working hours and education that take into account this new knowledge that emerged in the late twentieth century in Biology will have a role in preventive medicine in contemporary diseases such as cancer and psychiatric disorders

Après une introduction historique sur l'évolution du système de la CEDH, cette thèse s'intéresse au thème des «violations structurelles» dans la jurisprudence de la Cour européenne des droits de l'homme en raison d'un contexte de crise de la CEDH, essentiellement dûe à une charge de travail excessive. Les violations structurelles ne sont certes pas un phénomène nouveau dans l'histoire de la Convention et dans la jurisprudence internationale des droits de l’homme, en particulier celle de la Cour interaméricaine des droits de l'homme. C'est pourquoi ce thème permet d'aborder plusieurs questions de taille : l'exécution des arrêts de la Cour européenne dans les ordres juridiques internes, l'avenir du système de la CEDH et encore la nature «constitutionnelle» de la Cour européenne des droits de l'homme. L'ensemble de cette recherche met en évidence la tension récente entre «justice individuelle» et «justice collective» à la lumière du débat sur la «constitutionnalisation» du droit européen des droits de l'homme, dont le thème représente ici le fil conducteurAfter an historical introduction on the evolution of the ECHR system, this thesis deals with the theme of "structural violations" in the case law of the European Court of Human Rights in the context of the crisis of the ECHR, principally due to an excessive workload. Structural violations are not a new phenomenon in the history of the Convention and in the jurisprudence of international human rights, especially that of the Inter-American Court. The theme is therefore an opportunity to tackle key issues: the European Court's execution of judgements in internal legal orders, the future of the ECHR system, but also the "constitutional" nature of the European Court of Human Rights. All of this highlights the recent tension between "individual justice" and "collective justice" in the debate on the "constitutionalization" of European Human Rights Law, which is here the common thread
Dopo un’introduzione storica sull’evoluzione del sistema CEDU, il lavoro affronta il tema delle « violazioni strutturali » nella giurisprudenza della Corte europea dei diritti dell’uomo, nel quadro della crisi del modello CEDU, dovuta principalmente all’eccessivo carico di lavoro. Si tratta di un fenomeno non nuovo nella storia della Convenzione e nella giurisprudenza internazionale dei diritti umani, specie in quella della Corte interamericana. Il tema rappresenta inoltre lo spunto per affrontare questioni problematiche: il profilo dell’esecuzione delle sentenze della Corte europea negli ordinamenti interni, il futuro dello stesso sistema CEDU e la natura “costituzionale” della Corte EDU. Tutto questo evidenzia anche la recente tensione tra “giustizia individuale” e “giustizia collettiva”, nell’ambito del dibattito sulla “costituzionalizzazione” del diritto europeo dei diritti dell’uomo, fil rouge dell’intera trattazione

Full textAbstract:
This thesis investigates the applications of liquid crystals in three areas of aerodynamic testing, namely temperature, shear stress and pressure measurement over surfaces. The use of the selective reflection colours from encapsulated chiral nematic materials to map surface temperatures is assessed. This method is very successful in a wide range of applications for determining heat transfer rates, but has limitations where high heat transfer rates are present, due to the thermal response time of the material structure, and the effects of temperature gradients. The thermal time constant is determined as a function of material viscosity. It is typically 10ms for a chiral nematic material at room temperature. The effect of a temperature gradient on the selective reflection is studied in terms of the pitch gradient produced in the material structure. Two improved methods are then proposed. The first makes use of the cholesteric to isotropic transition to indicate an isotherm on a heated surface, while the second uses changes in the birefringence colours produced by an aligned nematic layer applied to a surface and viewed between crossed poiarisers. Changes in the selective reflection colours from cholesteric liquid crystals can be used to assess surface shear stress levels. This method is assessed and determined to be too problematical for accurate measurements. A new method is proposed, based on the shear induced texture change from the focal-conic to the Grandjean texture in the cholesteric phase. This method may be used to quantify surface shear stress levels as well as to provide excellent flow visualisation once flow alignment has occurred. Tests have been conducted on the pressure sensitivity of chiral nematic liquid crystal materials. The results indicate that the change in transition temperature with pressure is of the order of 40°/kbar. which may not be sensitive enough for wind tunnel purposes.

Full textAbstract:
The decision to undertake this research was a pragmatic response to the debates which followed the introduction of a new innovative secondary education system in Ghana. This paper will investigate the said innovation during its formation since 1974, inception from 1987 and, in respect of field research, aspects of its operation from 1998 to 2000. The innovation was designed as a complex package offering an integrated approach to change educational values, orientation and learning outcomes. The changes subsumed in each aspect of the innovation have far-reaching implications for the entire education system. One element, the vocationalised curriculum, caused immediate concern at the time of implementation because of pre-existing evidence of similar attempts made previously in Ghana and other countries which yielded unsatisfactory results. This concern was increased by the complexity of subsequent changes in the examination system and in the new structure of Junior Secondary Schooling (JSS). Furthermore, there were mixed opinions regarding a new emphasis on the individual learner as the focus of school activities augmented by the introduction of guidance and counselling. The primary aim of the research was to monitor the implementation processes in as many aspects as possible. This was done in order to see what benefits might be gained, and what lessons in order to continue the innovation. In order to conduct this assessment it was necessary to examine critically the characteristics of each element of the reform and their implications, using a variety of research methods to generate relevant data. This approach yielded a substantial amount of original evidence on the dynamics of educational change. While this evaluation specifically helps to deepen understanding of the said innovation, it also makes a contribution to the literature on educational innovation in developing countries. The particular theoretical framework used to direct analysis of the processes is derived from the IAC evaluation model developed by Havelock and Huberman (1977) and is used in their study of educational innovations in the developing countries. The theory proposes that a large and complex problem requires a sophisticated level of competency to handle it. An innovative situation requires an efficient system in order to muster the relevant level of IAC factors as were required. This paper explores and extends the IAC model by incorporating the new research regarding the Ghanaian educational innovation. In this new dimension, the Ghanaian model has tended to display far more interactive and cohesive characteristics than in the original Havelock and Huberman study, thus making the measure for success relatively more complex. There is overwhelming evidence to show that by the end of its second cycle in December 1999, none of the JSS innovation components had been in any way implemented. In all respects, the level of systemic competency was far below what was demanded by the innovation. When placed in the framework of the IAC theoretical model, analysis of the conclusive empirical findings provides key recommendations for future innovative educational projects. Crucial coordinating factors must be considered and necessarily established to ensure that strategies are put in place which strengthen the infrastructure. This coordinating initiative should encompass internal and external logistics coordination for resource persons and materials, while simultaneously linking the organizational management of the project with key administrative, political, and social interest groups.

Full textAbstract:
Objective: This research explored how time-to-event dental articles were indexed and reported, and sought solutions to help improve the reporting and identification of these articles, so that they could be more easily found and used to inform practice and research. Methods: Articles reporting time-to-event dental outcomes in humans were identified from the 50 dental journals with the highest impact factor for 2008. These were handsearched, identifying 'case' articles (n=95), active controls (likely false positives, n=91), and passive controls (other true negatives, n=6796). The medical subject headings (MESH) that had been assigned to the articles in MEDLINE, and words used in titles and abstracts describing time-to-events were compared between the 'cases' and controls. Time-to-event words and figures within articles were also sought, and reporting quality was assessed. Search strategies to identify time-toevent articles were developed, using indexing terms and free-text words. An independent cohort of articles was used to validate the search strategies, consisting of 148 time-to-event articles handsearched from 6514 articles in the 50 dental journals with the highest impact factor for 2012. The findings of the research were used to draft guidance to improve reporting, which was circulated amongst 78 stakeholder experts for comment, and modified. Results: MeSH indexing of time-to-event analyses was inconsistent and inaccurate, author descriptions in abstracts and titles varied, and the quality of time-to-event reporting and graphics in the body of those articles was poor. The burden faced by someone wishing to find and use these articles was considered high. Sensitive, precise and optimized electronic search strategies were developed and validated with sensitivities up to 92% and precisions up to 93%. The draft guidance attracted comment from 46 experts across 15 countries, with approximately 90% of the 130 comments accepted into the revised version. The importance of good quality reporting was endorsed, and there was high interest in commending the guidance to authors, reviewers, and training dental specialists. Conclusions: This research programme explored how time-to-event dental articles were reported, and used those findings to suggest solutions that would help to improve the identification and use of these data, reducing research waste.

Full textAbstract:
Las emociones son parte de la vida cotidiana. Con el objetivo de alcanzar aquello nos proponemos (incluido mantener el bienestar), las personas utilizamos diferentes estrategias de regulación emocional. La regulación emocional es el proceso por el que tratamos de modificar la expresión de una emoción ante una determinada situación. Existe un creciente interés en la investigación de la regulación de la emoción debido a sus implicaciones para la salud física y mental.
Las personas con fibromialgia sufren dolor crónico generalizado que suele ir acompañado de una gran variedad de síntomas, entre los que destacan la fatiga persistente, rigidez muscular, sueño no reparador y dificultades cognitivas (fibrofog) en la atención, la memoria o la concentración. Síntomas de alta intensidad afectiva y de ansiedad son muy frecuentes en la fibromialgia, y los déficits en la regulación de la emoción en pacientes con este síndrome son bien conocidos. Con una prevalencia mundial de 2 a 4% y en ausencia de un tratamiento curativo, esta constelación de síntomas mencionada afecta gravemente la vida diaria de los pacientes. El impacto en el área personal, económica y social es dramático.
El Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (CERQ) mide la regulación de la emoción con base cognitiva (aquello que pensamos cuando surge una emoción ante una situación en la vida). El CERQ captura nueve estrategias de regulación de la emoción: Autoculparse, Aceptación, Rumiación, Centrarse en lo positivo, Focalización en planes, Reevaluación positiva, Poner en perspectiva, Catastrofización y Culpar a otros. Estas estrategias de pueden ayudar a las personas a regular sus emociones, de una manera "Adaptativa" o "Menos adaptativa", facilitando u obstaculizando el manejo de la situación. En este sentido, el uso de estrategias regulatorias "Menos adaptativas" se concibe como un factor transdiagnóstico de vulnerabilidad psicopatológica.
En esta tesis doctoral, examinamos las propiedades psicométricas de la versión en español del CERQ, cuyo formato fue adaptado (ítems agrupados por dimensión) considerando los síntomas de la fibromialgia. Con este fin, recopilamos datos clínicos y de CERQ de 231 pacientes con fibromialgia que participaron en un ensayo aleatorizado y controlado realizado en el Parc Sanitari Sant Joan de Déu (St. Boi de Llobregat, España). Los análisis de datos apoyaron las propiedades psicométricas del CERQ en pacientes con fibromialgia y confirmaron la estructura de nueve factores, una consistencia interna adecuada y una superposición mínima entre las subescalas, coincidiendo con estudios previos realizados con muestras clínicas y no clínicas. Además, los análisis de correlación y regresión apoyaron la validez de construcción del instrumento CERQ.
En resumen, en este trabajo llegamos a la conclusión de que la versión adaptada del CERQ es un instrumento sólido y útil para evaluar la regulación de la emoción cognitiva en la fibromialgia. Como resultado principal de esta tesis doctoral, tenemos una medida validada empíricamente para evaluar la frecuencia de uso de nueve estrategias de regulación de la emoción cognitiva en pacientes con fibromialgia, que generalmente se caracterizan por dificultades de regulación de la emoción. Los estudios futuros que utilicen un diseño longitudinal podrán abordar algunos aspectos psicométricos pendientes del CERQ en pacientes con fibromialgia, como la estabilidad en el tiempo (fiabilidad test-retest) y la sensibilidad al cambio.Emotions are part of everyday life. In order to achieve their goals (including maintaining well-being), people use different emotion regulation strategies. Emotion regulation is the process by which people try to modify the expression of an emotion in a specific situation. There is burgeoning interest in emotion regulation research due to its implications for physical and mental health. Patients with a fibromyalgia diagnosis suffer from chronic widespread pain that is usually accompanied by a wide variety of symptoms, among them persistent fatigue, muscle stiffness, non-restorative sleep, cognitive difficulties (fibrofog) in attention, memory or concentration. Mood and anxiety symptoms are highly prevalent in fibromyalgia, and deficits in emotion regulation in patients with this syndrome are well known. With a worldwide prevalence between 2-4% and in the absence of a curative treatment, the abovementioned constellation of symptoms seriously affect patients’ daily life. The impact on personal, economic and social areas is dramatic. The Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (CERQ) measures emotion regulation with cognitive base (what we think when an emotion emerges facing a situation in life). The CERQ captures nine emotion regulation strategies: Self-blame, Acceptance, Rumination, Positive refocusing, Refocus on planning, Positive reappraisal, Putting into perspective, Catastrophizing and Blaming others. These strategies can help a person to regulate emotions, in an "Adaptive" or "Less Adaptive" way, facilitating or hindering the handling of the situation. In this sense, the use of "Less adaptive" regulatory strategies is conceived as a transdiagnostic factor of psychopathological vulnerability. In this dissertation, we examined the psychometric properties of the Spanish version of the CERQ, whose format was adapted (items grouped by dimension) considering fibromyalgia symptoms. For this purpose, we collected CERQ and clinical data from 231 patients with fibromyalgia participating in a randomized, controlled trial carried out at Parc Sanitari Sant Joan de Déu (St. Boi de Llobregat, Spain). Data analysis supported the sound psychometric properties of the CERQ in patients with fibromyalgia and confirmed the nine-factor structure, adequate internal consistency, and minimal overlapping among subscales found in previous studies with clinical and non-clinical samples. Additionally, correlational and regression analysis supported the construct validity of the CERQ. To sum up, we concluded that the adapted version of the CERQ is a sound and useful instrument for assessing cognitive emotion regulation in fibromyalgia. For the main outcome of this doctoral dissertation, we have an empirically validated measure to assess the frequency of use of nine cognitive emotion regulation strategies in fibromyalgia patients, who are usually characterized by emotion regulation difficulties. Future studies using a longitudinal design might address some pending psychometric aspects of the CERQ in patients with fibromyalgia, such as stability over time (test-retest reliability) and sensitivity to change.

Full textAbstract:
La presente indagine mira ad esaminare, in chiave innovativa, i rapporti tra l’Europa ed un reato prettamente europeo: il negazionismo. Sviluppatosi in maniera assolutamente predominante nel nostro continente, le ragioni della sua diffusione sono molteplici. Al di là della lotta a razzismo ed antisemitismo, il motivo principale va identificato nel ruolo “fondativo” che riveste la memoria dell’Olocausto in Europa, collocata nel cuore dell’universo valoriale su cui si reggono i due principali attori europei, ovverosia l’Unione europea e la Corte europea dei diritti dell’uomo.
La ricerca, dunque, ruota attorno a due poli tematici. Da un lato, sono state esaminate le politiche normative dell’Unione europea in materia di razzismo e xenofobia, entro cui spicca la promozione dell’incriminazione del negazionismo “allargato”, cioè esteso alle condotte di negazione non solo dell’Olocausto, ma anche degli altri crimini internazionali. Dall’altro lato, l’analisi della trentennale giurisprudenza della Corte di Strasburgo in materia ha evidenziato come, con riguardo alle manifestazioni negazioniste, sia stato elaborato uno “statuto speciale”, che si risolve nel perentorio diniego di tutela per questa categoria di opinioni, sottratte a monte all’ordinario giudizio di bilanciamento in quanto giudicate incompatibili con i valori sottesi alla CEDU.
Lo scopo di questo lavoro riposa nel tentativo di individuare le interazioni tra questi due sistemi istituzionali, per interpretare una tendenza che converge con nettezza verso un incremento della repressione penale della parola. Da questo complesso intreccio di norme e principi, di hard law e soft law, sarà possibile enucleare la natura giuridica ed il contenuto delle richieste di incriminazione rivolte agli Stati membri. Una volta appurato che agli Stati è concesso di restringere il campo di applicazione del reato di negazionismo, adottando degli indici di pericolosità delle condotte, sarà analizzata la tenuta di questi “elementi opzionali del reato” alla luce dei principi penalistici di tassatività, materialità, offensività e laicità.The present study aims to analyse the legal treatment of the crime of denialism by the two main European actors, namely the European Union (‘EU’) and the European Court of Human Rights (‘ECtHR’). These two systems find themselves in a delicate position that raises a need for deep investigation. They have to cherish and protect the memory of a historical event that is central to their own identity, whereas at the same time promoting the respect of fundamental rights such as freedom of speech. The first section seeks to identify the obligations stemming from the EU legal system, the institutional mandate of which is to harmonise criminal legislation of Member States by setting some basic common elements. Notably, the impact on domestic systems of the Framework Decision 2008/913/JHA on racism and xenophobia shall be assessed. The second part of the present research shall turn to the jurisprudence of the ECtHR to examine the relationship between Holocaust denial as a crime and the right to freedom of expression, with a view to deducing the principles with which States have to comply in the criminalisation of this kind of utterance. The overall goals shall be to identify: a) the interactions between these two systems; b) whether their policies on denialism may be better portrayed in terms of contrast or mutual support; c) the legal nature and content of the obligations originating for the Member States; d) whether a Europe-wide criminal prohibition on denialism appears likely to occur, whether it would be desirable and, if so, under which conditions.

This research investigates the experience of aging in middle-class elderly women in Goiânia, focusing on the possibilities for embodiments. The theoretical basis of the discussion proposed here is the idea of performative embodiment of corporeality (BUTLER, 1993), based on the concept of embodiment (CSORDAS, 1994), seeking to establish relations with the fieldwork in 2011, in gyms in this capital. Special attention is given to issues related to body techniques practiced by these women, the individual management of their own aging process and the construction of feminine identities in old age. We consider the subjectivities, meanings and practices undertaken by them in the life course, paying particular attention to the observed changes in their bodies, the way it influences the configuration of their identities and also to how these women are perceived in their family relationships – gender and intergenerational. This study is located in the field of Anthropology of Aging and Anthropology of the Body.
A presente pesquisa investiga as experiências de envelhecimento de mulheres idosas de classe média em Goiânia, focalizando as possibilidades de materializações de seus corpos. O eixo teórico central da discussão aqui proposta é a ideia de materialização performativa da corporalidade, com base no conceito de embodiment, buscando estabelecer relações com o trabalho de campo realizado em 2011, em academias de ginástica nesta capital. Especial atenção é dada às questões relacionadas às técnicas corporais praticadas por essas mulheres, à gestão individual de seu próprio processo de envelhecimento e à construção de identidades femininas na velhice. O objetivo central foi investigar a forma como essas mulheres experienciam o envelhecimento, discutindo as diferentes possibilidades de recriação da velhice. Levamos em consideração as subjetividades, significados e práticas por elas empreendidas no curso da vida, dando especial atenção às mudanças observadas em seus corpos, à maneira como isso influencia na configuração de suas identidades e, também, à forma como tais mulheres são percebidas em suas relações familiares – de gênero e intergeracionais. Este estudo se situa no campo da Antropologia do Envelhecimento e da Antropologia do Corpo.

Die vorliegende Arbeit analysiert den Umgang mit dem Tatbestand der Holocaust-Leugnung durch die Europäische Union (EU) und den Europäischen Gerichtshof für Menschenrechte (EGMR). Derzeit befinden sich diese in einer heiklen Situation: Sie müssen das Gedenken an ein für die europäische Identität zentrales historisches Ereignis – den Holocaust – pflegen und schützen und zugleich die Achtung der Grundrechte, insbesondere der Meinungsfreiheit, gewährleisten. Diese besondere Situation erfordert eine gründliche Untersuchung des europäischen Umgangs mit dem Tatbestand der Holocaust-Leugnung. Der erste Teil der Dissertation steckt den Anwendungsbereich der europarechtlichen Verpflichtungen zur Kriminalisierung der Holocaust-Leugnung ab. Bewertet wird insbesondere die Bedeutung des Rahmenbeschlusses 2008/913/JHA über Rassismus und Fremdenfeindlichkeit für die EU-Mitgliedstaaten. Dabei werden einige Beispiele der Umsetzung in staatliches Recht dargestellt. Der zweite Teil der Arbeit befasst sich mit der Rechtsprechung des EGMR und untersucht das Verhältnis zwischen dem Tatbestand der Holocaust-Leugnung und der Meinungsfreiheit mit dem Ziel, die Grundsätze, nach denen Staaten verpflichtet sind, entsprechende Äußerungen zu kriminalisieren, herzuleiten. Die übergreifenden Ziele der Untersuchung sind: a) den Charakter des Zusammenspiels zwischen EU und EGMR herauszuarbeiten; b) zu ermitteln, ob die jeweiligen Positionen gegensätzlich oder komplementär sind; c) die Rechtsnatur und den Inhalt der für die Mitgliedstaaten begründeten Verpflichtungen zu bestimmen; d) herauszuarbeiten, ob eine europaweite Kriminalisierung verpflichtend ist oder lediglich gefördert werden soll; und e) ob beziehungsweise unter welchen Bedingungen ein mit Kriminalstrafe sanktioniertes Verbot der Holocaust-Leugnung erstrebenswert wäre.The present study aims to analyse the legal treatment of the crime of denialism by the two main actors in European justice, namely, the European Union (‘EU’) and the European Court of Human Rights (‘ECtHR’). Presently, these two systems find themselves in a delicate position: they must cherish and protect the memory of an historical event – the Holocaust – which is central to Europe’s own identity, while simultaneously promoting respect for fundamental rights such as the freedom of speech. This unique balance raises a need for a thorough investigation into Europe’s approach to the crime of denialism. The dissertation’s first section seeks to measure the scope of EU-imposed obligations to make denialism a crime. Notably, the impact on EU Member States of the Framework Decision 2008/913/JHA on racism and xenophobia is assessed, with illustrations of a few archetypal examples of domestic implementing legislation. The second part of the dissertation turns to the jurisprudence of the ECtHR to examine the relationship between Holocaust denial as a crime and the right to freedom of expression, with a view to deducing the principles under which States must comply in the criminalization of this kind of utterance. The work’s overall goals are to assess: a) the nature of interactions between the EU and ECtHR; b) whether their positions on denialism are better portrayed in terms of contrast or mutual support; c) the legal nature and content of the obligations originating for the Member States; d) whether a Europe-wide criminal prohibition on denialism is dictated or simply encouraged; and e) whether such a prohibition would be desirable, and if so, under what conditions.

Full textAbstract:
This thesis provided a definition and conceptual framework for hospital disaster resilience; it used a mixed-method, including an empirical study in tertiary hospitals of Shandong Province in China, to devise an assessment instrument for measuring hospital resilience. The instrument is the first of its type and will allow hospitals to measure their resilience levels.
The concept of disaster resilience has gained prominence in the light of the increased impact of various disasters. The notion of resilience encompasses the qualities that enable the organisation or community to resist, respond to, and recover from the impact of disasters. Hospital resilience is essential as it provides 'lifeline' services which minimize disaster impact. This thesis has provided a framework and instrument to evaluate the level of hospital resilience. Such an instrument could be used to better understand hospital resilience, and also as a decision-support tool for its promoting strategies and policies.

Resumo: Observamos, em nossa sociedade, um crescente aumento pela procura por cursos de língua inglesa para crianças desde a primeira infância, sustentado por um argumento que circula de maneira transparente como uma verdade estabilizada: o do "quanto mais cedo, melhor". De modo a atravessar esta evidência, ancoramo-nos na Análise de Discurso, bem como, devido às próprias necessidades desta pesquisa, na História das Ideias Linguísticas, para compreender como a língua inglesa, na história da gramatização brasileira da língua portuguesa na relação com as línguas designadas estrangeiras, constitui-se, no imaginário brasileiro, como a língua estrangeira necessária a ser ensinada cada vez mais cedo, permitindo que surgissem e se estabilizassem tantos cursos infantis de língua inglesa no país. Mostramos em nosso trabalho que o argumento do "quanto mais cedo, melhor" é sustentado por uma rede de significação na qual jogam o discurso científico, o da globalização e o mercadológico, permitindo que o sujeito imerso nesse espaço discursivo do ensino infantil do inglês (pais, alunos, professores, gestores, administradores) trabalhe na evidência de que quanto mais cedo se inicia o ensino do inglês como língua estrangeira - por razões científicas -, mais cedo se está garantindo o sucesso financeiro e pessoal de um indivíduo na sociedade global, permitindo que ele se destaque dos demais, subjugando-os. Em nossa pesquisa, além de percorrer os percursos institucionais sobre o ensino da língua inglesa enquanto língua estrangeira no Brasil procurou compreender como estes discursos são postos em circulação por três centros de ensino de línguas do país. Desse modo, traçamos algumas das condições de produção que levaram a esta prática, desde o início do ensino de línguas estrangeiras no Brasil - colônia até a legislação atual que normatiza este ensino, além de mostrarmos o processo histórico que colocou a língua inglesa como a língua de poder nas relações mundiais atuais, possibilitando a configuração imaginária do inglês como língua global. Por fim, analisamos o discurso institucional e as campanhas publicitárias de três centros de ensino de línguas na atualidade do Brasil para compreendermos os sentidos de língua inglesa e infância presentes nestes dizeres, além de entender os discursos que os sustentam
Abstract: We notice, in our society, a rising increase on the search for English language courses for children, since early childhood, sustained by an argument which circulates in a "transparent" way as an established true: "the sooner, the better". In order to traverse this plainness, we aim to understand how the English language, in the Brazilian institutionalization of grammar history of Portuguese language on the relation to the languages named as foreign, constitutes, in the Brazilian imaginary, as the necessary foreign language to be taught increasingly early, allowing many English language course for children to arise and to stabilize themselves in the country. We show in our research, based on the Discourse Analysis theory and on the History of the Linguistics Ideas, that the "the sooner, the better" argument is sustained by a net of significance in which the scientific, the globalization and the market discourses act. Such process allows the subject, immersed in such English language teaching for children discursive space (parents, students, teachers, managers, administrators), to work on the evidence of "the sooner it is started the English teaching as a foreign language - by scientific reasons -, the sooner it is guaranteed the financial and personal success of a subject in the global society", what enables him/her to contrast from the others, subjugating them. In our research, besides following the institutional courses about the English language as a foreign language in Brazil, we seek to understand how these discourses are put into circulation by three language teaching centers in the country. Thereby, we (i) trace some of the production conditions that took to this practice, from the beginning of the foreign language teaching in colony-Brazil until the current legislation that standardizes this teaching; (ii) show the historic process that took English to the power language position on the current world relations, enabling the imaginary configuration of English as a global language; and (iii) analyze the institutional discourse as well as the advertising campaigns of three language teaching centers in Brazil in order to understand the meanings of English language and childhood present in those sayings and the discourses that sustain them

A busca incessante por informações a respeito da Formação Sergi - maior reservatório de hidrocarboneto da Bacia do Recôncavo - vem ocorrendo durante décadas. Entretanto, raros são os trabalhos que abordam de forma unificada os seus aspectos sedimentares e tectônicos, tal qual se propõe no presente trabalho. Um estudo integrado deverá trazer informações importantes acerca da evolução tectono-sedimentar da Formação Sergi, inclusive no que diz respeito ao seu posicionamento temporal pré-rifte ou cedo-rifte. Para isso, o estudo proposto analisa as estruturas rúpteis (incluindo campos de paleotensão) e os dados sedimentares (como, por exemplo, determinação de sentidos de paleocorrentes), propondo um modelo esquemático dinâmico da evolução tectono-sedimentar da Fm Sergi em área localizada na borda flexural da Bacia do Recôncavo. As estruturas do embasamento também são analisadas com o intuito de verificar se na arquitetura rúptil da bacia há reflexos de herança do embasamento e a sua influência no arcabouço estrutural da mesma. A Bacia do Recôncavo está inserida no sistema de riftes Recôncavo-Tucano-Jatobá cuja formação está relacionada aos estágios precoces de abertura do Atlântico Sul, sendo preservado como um ramo abortado da margem leste do Brasil, durante a fragmentação do Gondwana. A Fm Sergi é caracterizada como uma sequência flúvioeólica-lacustrina, depositada durante a seção pré-rifte. Existe, predominantemente, um padrão de falha N010º notório na área de estudo, sendo o provável responsável pelo basculamento das S0 e no controle da deposição dos sedimentos (principalmente eólico e fluvial entrelaçado). A interpretação integrada dos dados permitiu verificar que a tectônica exerceu um importante papel durante a deposição da Formação Sergi, visto que, seu sistema eólico e seus canais fluviais entrelaçados tiveram, provavelmente, suas paleocorrentes controladas por rampas de revezamento de pequeno rejeito, caracterizando-a como contemporânea à fase cedo rifte da Bacia do Recôncavo.
ABSTRACT The incessant search for information about the Sergi Formation - the largest hydrocarbon reservoir in the Recôncavo Basin - has been occurring for decades. However, there are few studies that unify their sedimentary and tectonic, as proposed in the present work. An integrated study should provide important information about the tectono-sedimentary evolution of the Sergi Formation, including its pre-rift or early-rift positioning. In order to do so, the proposed study will analyze brittle structures (including paleotension fields) and sedimentary data (such as paleocurrents), proposing a dynamic schematic model of the tectono-sedimentary evolution of Fm Sergi in an area located at the flexural border of the Reconcavo Basin. The basement structures are also analyzed with the purpose of verifying if in the basalt architecture there are reflections of inheritance of the basement and its influence in the structural framework of the basement. The Recôncavo Basin is part of the Recôncavo-Tucano-Jatobá riftes system whose formation is related to the early opening stages of the South Atlantic, being preserved as an aborted branch of the eastern margin of Brazil during the Gondwana fragmentation. Fm Sergi is characterized as a fluoride-Aeolic-lacustrine sequence, deposited during the pre-rift section. There is a predominant N010º fault pattern in the study area, being probably responsible for the S0 tipping and the sediment deposition control (mainly braided fluvial and aeolian). The integrated interpretation of the data allowed us to verify that tectonics played an important role during the deposition of the Sergi Formation, since its wind system and its interlaced fluvial channels probably had their paleocurrent controlled by small reject ramps, characterizing it as contemporary to the early rifte phase of the Recôncavo Basin.

Full textAbstract:
The unique contribution to knowledge of this research is the study of the development of judgement capacity in apprentice and undergraduate engineering learners in Activity Led Learning (ALL) environments. Four case studies of engineering students investigated the learners' experiences of making judgements in various engineering undergraduate and apprenticeship programmes. A phenomenological research methodology was used to infer the learner's judgements from the learners' dialogues and actions that were observed during the learning activity. The findings of the study indicate that the experience and incidence of the learners' exertion of judgement is dependent upon the construct of the ALL environment to provide a problem space with potential for disjuncture, and the intentionality of the learners. The learners did not solve problems by a linear progression but repeatedly re-activated experiences and knowledge, exercising judgements until the states of disjuncture were satisfied leading to the conclusion of the problem. Heuristic judgements that may result in decision making errors tended to dominate the problem spaces though their incidence did not appear to be influenced by the technical or socio-technical demands of the project problem spaces. This thesis concludes that in ALL environments, projects of sufficient length and complexity similar to realistic professional practice, may enable students to acquire the practice of better judgement through disjuncture and by re-activating learning experiences and importing analogies into new problem spaces. However, to acquire skills and knowledge to improve judgement capacity, requires specific and purposeful interventions within ALL that enable the learner to know when heuristic judgements are reliable or otherwise unreliable, and acquiring reasoning strategies to compensate for the effects. It is proposed that in such interventions the learner learns to record their own judgements as they are exerted and to reflect critically on those judgements and their consequences. It also requires that any ALL project that aims to promote judgement capacity has in place assessment instruments that specifically consider the learner effort in the self-development of judgement.

Introdu??o: A literatura sugere que respostas emocionais est?o associadas ao desenvolvimento e manuten??o de sintomas do Transtorno de Estresse P?s-Traum?tico (TEPT). A capacidade de influenciar a experi?ncia e express?o emocional, conhecida como regula??o emocional (RE), pode ser cr?tica ao lidar com n?veis significativos de estresse. Especificamente, a RE atrav?s de cogni??es, ou pensamentos (ou seja, Regula??o Emocional Cognitiva, REC), ajuda os indiv?duos a manter o controle sobre sua experi?ncia emocional durante, ou depois de serem expostos a eventos estressores, ou traum?ticos. O Question?rio de Regula??o Emocional Cognitiva (CERQ), foi desenvolvido para medir nove diferentes estrat?gias de REC que se referem ? maneira consciente e atencional de lidar com eventos de vida amea?adores, ou negativos. Objetivos: Os objetivos gerais desta disserta??o foram desenvolver e investigar as evid?ncias de validade da vers?o brasileira do CERQ (Estudo 1) e investigar a rela??o entre a exposi??o a traumas, estrat?gias cognitivas de RE, afeto e Sintomas de Estresse P?s-Traum?tico (SEPT) atrav?s de um modelo de media??o dupla (Estudo 2). M?todo: Uma amostra de 445 estudantes universit?rios completou um Question?rio S?cio-Demogr?fico, a Life of Events Checklist (LEC-5), a vers?o brasileira do CERQ, a Positive and Negative Affect Schedule (PANAS) e a Posttraumatic Symptoms Checklist (PCL-5) em uma plataforma de pesquisa on-line. Para o Estudo 1, o processo de adapta??o da vers?o brasileira do CERQ incluiu tradu??o, retro-tradu??o, avalia??o de ju?zes e teste em 30 participantes da popula??o-alvo. As evid?ncias de validade de construto foram avaliadas atrav?s de an?lise fatorial confirmat?ria, da consist?ncia interna atrav?s dos alfas de Cronbach e de correla??es com as vari?veis afetivas mensuradas pelo PANAS. Para o Estudo 2 foram realizadas an?lises preliminares de correla??o e de regress?o linear m?ltipla para investigar associa??es entre tipo de trauma, estrat?gias cognitivas de regula??o emocional, afeto e severidade de SEPT. Em seguida, um modelo com rumina??o e afeto negativo como mediadores do efeito da exposi??o ao trauma les?o moral causada por outros sobre os SEPT foi testado usando o macro PROCESS para o SPSS. Resultados: As an?lises de validade mostraram que a estrutura original do CERQ possui boa validade fatorial na amostra e alta confiabilidade, com ? de Cronbach variando entre .71 e .88. An?lises preliminares de associa??o entre tipo de trauma, estrat?gias de regula??o emocional cognitiva, afeto e SEPT mostraram que o tipo de trauma de les?o moral causada por outros, rumina??o e afeto negativo s?o preditores significativos da gravidade de SEPT. Ao testar o modelo de media??o dupla, os resultados sugerem que a rumina??o ? um mediador forte e independente entre o tipo de trauma de les?o moral causada por outros e SEPT, enquanto afeto negativo ? um mediador apenas quando a rumina??o est? presente no modelo. Discuss?o: Nossos resultados indicam que a vers?o brasileira do CERQ ? uma ferramenta v?lida e confi?vel para avaliar as estrat?gias cognitivas de regula??o emocional e que os indiv?duos expostos ao tipo de trauma de les?o moral causada pelos outros utilizam rumina??o como uma estrat?gia de regula??o emocional cognitiva com mais frequ?ncia. O uso aumentado dessa estrat?gia amplifica os n?veis de afeto negativo que acaba levando a n?veis mais elevados de SEPT. Em geral, esses resultados podem influenciar pesquisas e auxiliar no desenvolvimento e melhoria de interven??es cognitivas para indiv?duos expostos a eventos traum?ticos.
Background: Literature suggests that emotional responses are associated to the development and maintenance of Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) symptoms. The ability to influence emotional experience and expression, known as emotion regulation (ER), can be critical when dealing with significant levels of stress. Specifically, ER through cognitions, or thoughts (i.e. Cognitive Emotion Regulation; CER), helps individuals to maintain control over their emotional experience during, or after being exposed to stressful, or traumatic events. The Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (CERQ) was developed to measure nine different CER strategies that refer to the conscious and attentional way people deal with threatening, or negative life events. Objectives: Therefore, the general purposes of this thesis were to develop and evaluate validity evidences of the Brazilian version of the CERQ (Study 1) and to investigate the relationship between trauma exposure, cognitive emotion regulation strategies, affect and Posttraumatic Stress Symptoms (PTSS) testing for a double mediation model (Study2). Method: A sample of 445 university students completed a Socio-Demographic Questionnaire, the Life of Events Checklist (LEC-5), the Brazilian version of the CERQ, the Positive and Negative Affect Schedule (PANAS) and the Posttraumatic Symptoms Checklist (PCL-5) on an on-line research platform. For Study 1, adaptation process of the Brazilian version of the CERQ included translation, backtranslation, expert committee?s evaluation, and testing on 30 participants from the target population. Validity evidence was assessed through confirmatory factor analysis, internal consistency through the Cronbach?s alpha analysis, and correlations with the affective variables measured by the PANAS. For Study 2, preliminary correlation and multiple linear regression analyses were conducted to investigate associations among trauma type exposure, cognitive emotion regulation strategies, affect and PTSS severity. Next, a model positing rumination and negative affect as double mediators of the effect of trauma type of moral injury by others on PTSS was tested using the PROCESS macro for SPSS. Results: Validity analyses showed that the original structure of the CERQ has good factorial validity in the sample and high reliabilities, with Cronbach?s ? ranging between .71 and .88. Preliminary analyses of the association among trauma type, cognitive emotion regulation strategies, affect and PTSS showed that trauma type of moral injury, rumination and negative affect were significant predictors of PTSS severity. When testing for the double mediation model, results suggested that rumination is a strong and independent mediator between trauma type moral injury by others and PTSS, while negative affect is a mediator only when rumination is also included. Discussion: Our results indicate that the Brazilian version of the CERQ is a valid and reliable tool for assessing cognitive emotion regulation strategies, and that individuals who are exposed to trauma type of moral injury by others engage more frequently in rumination as a cognitive emotion regulation strategy, which in turn amplifies levels of negative effect that ends up leading to higher levels of PTSS. Overall, these results can influence further researches and aid the development and improvement of cognitive treatment interventions for individuals exposed to traumatic events.

Full textAbstract:
L'Union européenne connaît, depuis les années 1970, le développement et l'affirmation, en son sein, d'un systéme propre de protection des droits fondamentaux. L'extension des compétences qui lui sont dévolues rend cette garantie indispensable mais pose néanmoins le problème de son articulation avec le mécanisme institué par la Convention européenne des droits de l'Homme, à laquelle tous les Etats membres de l'Union (sauf la France) avaient adhéré avant la création des communautés. Cette dernère a certes acquis une place fondamentale dans le cadre de l'Union en tant que norme de référence. Mais l'autonomie institutionnelle entre les deux ordres juridiques a été préservée ; l'adhésion de la Communauté à la Convention n'est pas à l'ordre du jour. Les difficultés engendrées par cette coexistence d'ordres juridiques autonomes se posent notamment pour les Etats liés à l'égard de chacun d'eux : la saisine de la Cour européenne des droits de l'Homme par un particulier mettant en cause le droit communautaire est en effet recevable dès lors que la requête ne vise pas directement l'Union ou la Communauté, mais l'Etat membre. Cette sitution soulève alors la question de la responsabilités des Etats membres à l'égard de la Convention du fait du droit communautaire. Le principe de cette responsabilité se fond notamment sur l'application des règles de droit international en matière de traités successifs, lesquelles sont également consacrées dans le cadre de deux ordres juridiques étudiés. Sa mise en oeuvre dépendra cependant de l'objet de la requête, selon que celle-ci vise un Etat membre en raison de l'exécution qu'il apporte au droit communautaire ou bien la collectivité des Etats membres, considérés comme responsables d'avoir institué l'ordre juridique communautaire sans garantir que leurs obligations conventionnelles seront maintenues.

nÃo hÃThis paper took as object of study the teacher training project developed by the Center for education (CED) UECE, during the period from 2000 to 2004, timeline from your installation, with the launch of its Cornerstone and the completion of a significant part of its main Special Training Programs. The work of Thesis took over as purpose: explaining the content and pedagogical and political direction taken by the teacher training project, now under way, with the purpose of making it visible, public, with real possibilities for discussion and analysis and, consequently, its institutional identity definition. To bring out, give visibility to the teacher training project currently underway in the CED, we used the case study â study characteristic of qualitative research approach â with emphasis on the analysis of documents, interviews and participant observation with a variable group of sixteen people, on average, one of coordinators of courses/programs, in the areas of knowledge of same constituents , of course teaching of pedagogy and members of the reformulation of this Curriculum. The structure of the text resulting from the research presents the history carried out by CED, in the timeframe mentioned, placing it in the larger context of UECE and teacher training policies deployed in Cearà and Brazil the years 2000; the ideas, impressions and experiences of the subjects investigated, about the build process and conduct of training projects of courses/programs under their responsibility; the content of teacher training project, experienced by CED, from the analysis of documents written by top administration UECE and CED. The findings of the survey point to the thesis that there is a Pedagogical political project of teacher training, underway in CED that, by being faithful to neoliberal logic, is still fragmented into many other projects; diluted between the direction printed on the policy and strategic planning the educational curriculum guidelines expressed in the direction of the teacher training courses

Full textAbstract:
Computer-mediated collaboration is an important feature of modern organisational and educational settings. Despite its ever increasing popularity, it is still commonly compared unfavourably with face-to-face collaboration because non-verbal and paralinguistic cues are minimal. Although research on face-to-face group collaboration is well documented, less is known about computer-mediated collaboration.
The initial focus of this thesis was an in-depth analysis of a case study of a computer-mediated collaborative group. The case study was a large international group of volunteer researchers who collaborated on a two-year research project using asynchronous communication (email). This case study was a window on collaborative dialogue in the early 1990s (1992-94) at a time when information and communication technologies were at an early stage of development.
After identifying the issues emerging from this early case study, another case study using technologies and virtual environments developed over the past decade, was designed to further understand how groups work together on a collaborative activity. The second case study was a small group of students enrolled in a unit of study at Murdoch University who collaborated on a series of nine online workshops using synchronous communication (chat room). This case study was a window on collaborative dialogue in the year 2000 when information and communication technologies had developed at a rate which few people envisioned in the early 90s.
The primary aim of the research described in this thesis was to gain a better understanding of how computer-mediated collaborative communities develop and grow. In particular, the thesis addresses questions related to the developmental and leadership characteristics of collaborative groups.
Internet research requires a set of assumptions relating to ontology, epistemology, human nature and methodological approach that differs from traditional research assumptions. A research framework for Internet research Complementary Explorative Data Analysis (CEDA) was therefore developed and applied to the two case studies.
The results of the two case studies using the CEDA methodology indicate that computer-mediated collaborative groups are highly adaptive to the aim of the collaborative task to be completed, and the medium in which they collaborate. In the organisational setting, it has been found that virtual teams can devise and complete a collaborative task entirely online. It may be an advantage, but it is certainly not mandatory to have preliminary face-to-face discussions. What is more important is to ensure that time is allowed for an initial period of structuration which involves social interaction to develop a social presence and eventually cohesiveness. In the educational setting, a collaborative community increases pedagogical effectiveness. Providing collaborative projects and interdependent tasks promotes constructivist learning and a strong foundation for understanding how to collaborate in the global workplace. Again, this research has demonstrated that students can collaborate entirely online, although more pedagogical scaffolding may be required than in the organisational setting. The importance of initial social interaction to foster a sense of presence and community in a mediated environment has also been highlighted.
This research also provided greater understanding of emergent leadership in computer-mediated collaborative groups. It was found that sheer volume of words does not make a leader but frequent messages with topic-related content does contribute to leadership qualities.
The results described in this thesis have practical implications for managers of virtual teams and educators in e-learning.

Full textAbstract:
Globalt pågår debatter kring mångfald inom ledningsgrupper. Forskare på området är hittills inte överens om de effekter som mångfald inom affärsvärlden medför, ändå finns starka åsikter kring hur en ledningsgrupp bör utformas utifrån kön, ålder, utbildning och etnicitet. Spekulation avseende mångfalds betydelse för hållbar utveckling förekommer och i takt med ökade krav på hållbarhetsrapportering växer intresset för faktorer som kan främja denna form av rapportering. I dagsläget saknas tvingande standarder för hållbarhetsrapportering, men den miljömässiga delen inom hållbarhetsrapportering, som i studien betecknas CED-rapportering,är offentlig information och uppmärksammas i media. Media, som dels bildar normer, dels avspeglar allmänhetens förväntningar, har makten att påverka ett företags rykte. Relationen mellan mångfald i bolagsstyrelse, CED-rapportering och medieexponering är således ett aktuellt område värt att fördjupa sig i. Det huvudsakliga syftet med studien var att beskriva och analysera om mångfald i bolagsstyrelse påverkar CED-rapportering och om rapporteringen i sin tur inverkar på den grad av exponering som multinationella företag ges i media. Urvalsramen utgjordes av multinationella företag från GRI:s databas. Av 447 företag uppfyllde 202 studiens krav. Strukturella ekvationsmodeller visar att mångfald i bolagsstyrelse inte påverkar CEDrapportering. Rapporteringen påverkar däremot företags exponering i media. Företags storlek och georgrafiska placering har en inverkan på mångfald, CED-rapportering och medieexponering.Debates about diversity among board directors are in progress globally. Scientists are in disagreement about the impacts of diversity in the business world. Yet there are strong opinions about a group’s formation on the distribution of gender, age, education and ethnicity. There are speculations of a possible relationship between diversity and sustainability reporting. The growing demands of such reporting increases the interest to determine which factors promote sustainability reporting. This study intends to explore theCorporate Environmental Disclosure (CED) of sustainability reporting. Currently there are no mandatory standard for sustainability reporting, such information is public though and exposures in media. Media compares the reports to public expectations and has the power to affect a company’s reputation. The relationship between board diversity, environmentalreporting and media exposure is hence an area worth exploring.The main intent of this study was to describe and analyse whether board diversity affects CED. Further the intent was to explore whether CED affects media exposure. The sampling for the study consisted of multinational companies. Of 447 examined, 202 formed the basis. The results of the study established by structural equation modeling, stated that board diversity is not associated with CED. Yet the study indicates that CED affects media exposure. External variables that were found to have effect on board diversity, CED or media exposure were firm size and geographical

Full textAbstract:
Cold-formed steel stud walls are a major component of Light Steel Framing (LSF) building systems used in commercial, industrial and residential buildings. In the conventional LSF stud wall systems, thin steel studs are protected from fire by placing one or two layers of plasterboard on both sides with or without cavity insulation. However, there is very limited data about the structural and thermal performance of stud wall systems while past research showed contradicting results, for example, about the benefits of cavity insulation. This research was therefore conducted to improve the knowledge and understanding of the structural and thermal performance of cold-formed steel stud wall systems (both load bearing and non-load bearing) under fire conditions and to develop new improved stud wall systems including reliable and simple methods to predict their fire resistance rating. Full scale fire tests of cold-formed steel stud wall systems formed the basis of this research. This research proposed an innovative LSF stud wall system in which a composite panel made of two plasterboards with insulation between them was used to improve the fire rating. Hence fire tests included both conventional steel stud walls with and without the use of cavity insulation and the new composite panel system. A propane fired gas furnace was specially designed and constructed first. The furnace was designed to deliver heat in accordance with the standard time temperature curve as proposed by AS 1530.4 (SA, 2005). A compression loading frame capable of loading the individual studs of a full scale steel stud wall system was also designed and built for the load-bearing tests. Fire tests included comprehensive time-temperature measurements across the thickness and along the length of all the specimens using K type thermocouples. They also included the measurements of load-deformation characteristics of stud walls until failure. The first phase of fire tests included 15 small scale fire tests of gypsum plasterboards, and composite panels using different types of insulating material of varying thickness and density. Fire performance of single and multiple layers of gypsum plasterboards was assessed including the effect of interfaces between adjacent plasterboards on the thermal performance. Effects of insulations such as glass fibre, rock fibre and cellulose fibre were also determined while the tests provided important data relating to the temperature at which the fall off of external plasterboards occurred. In the second phase, nine small scale non-load bearing wall specimens were tested to investigate the thermal performance of conventional and innovative steel stud wall systems. Effects of single and multiple layers of plasterboards with and without vertical joints were investigated. The new composite panels were seen to offer greater thermal protection to the studs in comparison to the conventional panels. In the third phase of fire tests, nine full scale load bearing wall specimens were tested to study the thermal and structural performance of the load bearing wall assemblies. A full scale test was also conducted at ambient temperature. These tests showed that the use of cavity insulation led to inferior fire performance of walls, and provided good explanations and supporting research data to overcome the incorrect industry assumptions about cavity insulation. They demonstrated that the use of insulation externally in a composite panel enhanced the thermal and structural performance of stud walls and increased their fire resistance rating significantly. Hence this research recommends the use of the new composite panel system for cold-formed LSF walls. This research also included steady state tensile tests at ambient and elevated temperatures to address the lack of reliable mechanical properties for high grade cold-formed steels at elevated temperatures. Suitable predictive equations were developed for calculating the yield strength and elastic modulus at elevated temperatures. In summary, this research has developed comprehensive experimental thermal and structural performance data for both the conventional and the proposed non-load bearing and load bearing stud wall systems under fire conditions. Idealized hot flange temperature profiles have been developed for non-insulated, cavity insulated and externally insulated load bearing wall models along with suitable equations for predicting their failure times. A graphical method has also been proposed to predict the failure times (fire rating) of non-load bearing and load bearing walls under different load ratios. The results from this research are useful to both fire researchers and engineers working in this field. Most importantly, this research has significantly improved the knowledge and understanding of cold-formed LSF walls under fire conditions, and developed an innovative LSF wall system with increased fire rating. It has clearly demonstrated the detrimental effects of using cavity insulation, and has paved the way for Australian building industries to develop new wall panels with increased fire rating for commercial applications worldwide.

Full textAbstract:
A presença das neurociências nos mais diversos âmbitos do conhecimento humano tem se tornado notável a partir do que ficou conhecido, nos anos 1990, como a Década do Cérebro. Dentre as áreas com as quais estabelece interface está a Pedagogia de Línguas Estrangeiras Modernas para Crianças (PLEMC), a qual analisamos em sua realização no discurso das escolas bilíngues privadas no Brasil. O recorte epistemológico e metodológico norteador das reflexões e análises desta pesquisa é a Análise de Discurso derivada dos trabalhos desenvolvidos na França por Michel Pêcheux e ampliados no Brasil por autoras como Orlandi (2001), Carmagnani (1996), Grigoletto (2002), Coracini (1992) e Pinheiro-Passos (2006). Nosso objeto é o discurso produzido na interface entre a neurociência contemporânea e o ensino de inglês para crianças e bebês no âmbito das escolas bilíngues privadas no Brasil. Pesquisas realizadas anteriormente apontaram que esse ensino se insere em uma formação discursiva cujos sujeitos são valorizados com base na obtenção de destaque dentro da dinâmica da competitividade, naturalizada pela ideologia do capitalismo de acumulação flexível (GARCIA, 2011). Os resultados obtidos sugerem que a dinâmica discursiva desse cenário é majoritariamente construída por sentidos que não se alinham aos conhecimentos produzidos nas neurociências na atualidade e investe em uma projeção precoce das crianças pequenas tanto na lógica do sistema econômico quanto em papéis de competição e seleção imaginários a serem atingidos por elas em futuros hipotéticos; tal inserção foi, em parte significativa dos casos estudados, justificada com base nas características neuropsicológicas, dos aprendizes. Identificamos que essa argumentação operou fortemente por meio da apropriação pela PLEMC de conceitos das ciências biológicas tidos como ultrapassados, como o de período crítico e predominantemente representou a habilidade em mais de uma língua como vantagem. Nossa pesquisa identificou um tríplice sustentáculo no fluxo dos sentidos que se mantêm no trânsito entre as formações discursivas das neurociências e da pedagogia de línguas estrangeiras modernas para crianças: o viés do nome, o viés político e o viés do produto. Por meio da análise de como aspectos da conjuntura contemporânea exercem pressão sobre cada um dos sustentáculos, concluímos que a incompatibilidade entre os sentidos das neurociências e da PLEMC na sua apropriação pelas escolas bilíngues, decorre predominantemente da incompatibilidade das condições de produção do discurso de origem (as neurociências de caráter progressista nos países centrais) no discurso final (o discurso publicitário conservador no Brasil), e não de lacunas no acesso aos conceitos centrais da ciência biomédica.The neurosciences have been present in the most diverse realms of human knowledge since what has become known as the Decade of the Brain, in the 1990s. Among the areas with which it establishes interface is the Pedagogy of Foreign Languages for Children (PFLC), which we analyze in its realization in the discourse of private bilingual schools in Brazil. The epistemological framework for the current analysis is the Discourse Analysis derived from work carried out in France by Pêcheux and expanded in Brazil by authors such as Orlandi (2001), Carmagnani (1996), Grigoletto (2002), Coracini (1992) and Pinheiro-Passos (2006). Our object is the discourse produced at the interface between contemporary neuroscience and English teaching for children and infants within private bilingual schools in Brazil. Previous research has pointed out that this teaching is part of a discursive formation whose subjects are valued based on obtaining prominence within the dynamics of competitiveness, naturalized by the ideology of flexible accumulation capitalism (GARCIA, 2011). The results obtained suggested that the discursive dynamics of this scenario is mostly constructed by meanings that are not aligned with the knowledge currently produced in the neurosciences and invests in an early projection of the small children both in the logic of the economic system as well as in the roles of competition and imaginary selection to be achieved by them in hypothetical futures; Such insertion was, in a significant part of the cases studied, justified on the basis of the neuropsychological characteristics of the apprentices. We have identified that this argumentation operated strongly through the appropriation of concepts of biological sciences regarded as outdated, such as the critical period, and predominantly represented proficiency in more than one language as an advantage. Our research has identified a threefold underpinning in the flow of the meanings between the discursive formations of neurosciences and foreign language pedagogy for children: name bias, political bias, and product bias. Through the analysis of how aspects of contemporary conjuncture put pressure on each of the pillars, we found that the incompatibility between the meanings produced by neurosciences and by FLTC in the discourse bilingual schools, is due mainly to the incompatibility between the conditions of production of the originating discourse (neurosciences of a progressive character in the central countries) and the final discourse (the conservative advertising discourse in Brazil), and not to gaps in the access to the central concepts of biomedical science.

A presente dissertação visa à análise das implicações da tradução do dialeto bávaro, assim como da linguagem não padrão em geral empregada no filme #Wer früher stirbt ist länger tot# / #Quem morre mais cedo, passa mais tempo morto#, do diretor Marcus Hausham Rosenmüller, lançado no ano de 2006. Visto que a legendação é um processo de tradução diferente da modalidade texto verbal - texto verbal, pressupõe-se que as próprias limitações inerentes a este processo são fatores que podem interferir na compreensão do texto fílmico. Assumindo a perspectiva que a linguagem empregada no filme delineia o caráter dos personagens, hipotetiza-se que, ao optar somente pelo uso pragmático da língua sem levar em conta os elementos sociolinguísticos e culturais marcados na língua fonte, pode ser afetada a identidade dialetal expressa por meio da religiosidade, da laconicidade e da expressividade da cultura bávara representada na obra. A análise das legendas e de suas implicações é realizada à luz das propostas de tradução de variantes linguísticas de Kolb (1999) e da tradução sobre uma perspectiva sociolinguística de Neubert (2009).

Full textAbstract:
L'Union européenne n'est pas en tant que telle membre des Nations Unies. Afin de traiter la manière dont elle met en oeuvre les résolutions du Conseil de sécurité des Nations Unies, il convient de s'intéresser au rapport que le droit international entretient avec le droit communautaire. L'analyse porte notamment sur la personnalité juridique internationale de l'Union européenne, l'engagement de sa responsabilité internationale et sur l'implication de la structure en piliers de l'Union européenne. A travers les particularités du pilier PESC et du pilier relatif à la coopération policière et judiciaire en matière pénale (CPJP), il convient d'identifier les apports des différents traités jusqu'à l'adoption du traité de Lisbonne. Les conséquences liées à une articulation sur trois niveaux de la relation UE/ONU sont également mises en avant. Il s'agit ainsi d'évoquer les effets d'une mise en oeuvre s'opérant au niveau de l'ONU, où sont décidées les mesures à mettre en place, au niveau communautaire, où certaines initiatives sont entreprises dès l'origine de la construction européenne, et au niveau des Etats membres de l'Union, destinataires directs des décisions prises par le Conseil de sécurité. L'essor de la lutte contre le terrorisme et l'émergence de mesures relatives à la gestion des crises (dans ses composantes civile et militaire) permettent de délimiter les contours de la relation entre l'Union européenne et l'organisation internationale, dont l'étude nécessite une mise en perspective sous le prisme des droits fondamentaux, au regard de la jurisprudence de la CJUE et de la CEDH notammentThe European Union as such is not a member of the United Nations. In order to examine the means by the way it implements the resolutions of the United Nations Security Council, it is necessary to develop the relations between international and community law. The analysis focuses mainly on the question of the international legal personality of the EU, the engagement of its international responsibility and the implications of its three pillars structure. Through the study of the particular characteristics of the CFSP (Common Foreign and Security Policy) pillar and those of the pillar devoted to police and judicial cooperation in criminal matters, the aim is to identify the impact of the different treaties, until the adoption of the Treaty of Lisbon. The scope of the analysis is, furthermore, to stress the consequences of the construction of the relations between the EU and the UN on a three level basis. The implementation of the Security Council resolutions occurs, first of all, at the level of the UN, where the adoption of the measures is decided, at the level of the EU, where initiatives have been taken from the very early years of the European integration and, finally, at the level of the member states of the EU, which are directly concerned by the decisions taken by the Security Council. The extension of the fight against terrorism and the emergence of new measures in relation with the handling of crisis, offer the necessary material in order to try to identify the outlines of the relation between the UE and the UN, through the perspective of the protection of human rights and in respect with the jurisprudence of the CJEU and the ECHR

Full textAbstract:
This research investigated the microbial air quality of flooded houses in Brisbane suburbs following the January 2011 flood event. Flood waters can carry and spread human pathogenic bacteria, and these organisms can be dispersed into residential air by aerosolisation. This study found that the bacterial load was significantly different for indoor and outdoor areas of flood affected houses, but no significant differences were observed between flooded and non-flooded houses. This could be due to the rapid clean-up of flooded houses following the event. Molecular methods were used to identify and characterise staphylococcal species in residential air of flooded and non-flooded houses. A major finding was the diverse population of airborne staphylococci as well as the high rate of methicillin-resistance in these strains. By determining the genetic relatedness of residential air sourced staphylococci, a potential source for pathogenic strains can be identified.

The process of programmed cell death is important in the development and homeostasis of multicellular organisms. The conserved morphological events of this process have been termed apoptosis. The molecular mechanisms of apoptosis execution are also conserved. We have investigated the behavior of these shared components during programmed cell death in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans. We have found that the CED-9 protein, an anti-apoptotic member of the Bcl-2 family of apoptotic regulators, is required for the sequestering of the CED-4 cell-death activator to mitochondria. In the absence of CED-9 in C. elegans embryos, we found that CED-4 protein translocates to the nuclear membrane. In addition, inducing excess programmed cell death by expression of the EGL-1 cell-death activator triggers the translocation of CED-4 from mitochondria to the nuclear membrane. We performed a genetic screen for mutations that trigger programmed cell death in ced-9 gain-of-function animals where cell death is blocked. We identified a mutation in cup-5, the C. elegans homolog of the human mucolipidosis type IV gene, which is mutated in a lysosomal storage disorder. We found that cup-5 is required for viability and that excess lysosomes accumulate in cup-5 mutants. In addition, cup--5 mutants contain excess programmed cell deaths, suggesting that apoptosis may play a role in the pathology of mucolipidosis type IV.
