The essential questions of the dissertation research described here address concepts in homogeneous catalysis and organometallic chemistry, with a focus on method development for catalytic reaction applications in organic synthesis. The unifying theme throughout the research is the development of rational design principles for cooperative catalysis through both mechanistic and empirical study. Cooperative catalysis – in which multiple catalysts enable increased activity or selectivity versus a single catalyst system – can involve some combination of a transition metal, Lewis acid, and Brønsted acid. Chapter 1 reviews the literature regarding the cooperativity of transition metal and Lewis acid catalysis, and discusses four main areas in organic synthesis and the facilitation of these trnasformations by Lewis acids: (a) C-C bond and C-H activation, (b) hydrogenolysis of carboxylic acid derivates and ethers, (c) Au catalyzed alkyne activation and cyclization reactions, and related reactions, and (d) Pd catalyzed C-C and C-N bond forming reactions. These different topics are selected based on the mechanistic insight provided into the nature of transition metal-Lewis acid cooperativity. Chapter 2 describes the observation of Lewis acid acceleration of a Pd catalyzed C-N bond coupling. The synthetic methodology is elaborated using metal triflates as cocatalysts, and Lewis acid acceleration is observed for a variety of different N-nucleophiles. Qualitative mechanistic study implicates the role of halide anions in inhibiting this catalytic reaction, and it is proposed that metal triflates are competent to accelerate catalysis by binding halide anions, and therefore attenuating halide inhibition. This hypothesis is supported by initial rate measurements and 31P NMR experiments. Rationalizing trends observed in the reactivity of Lewis acids in the cooperative reactions described in Chapters 1 and 2 is challenging. Therefore, our goal was to provide further insight into the behavior or Lewis acids in complex reaction settings. Inspired by 31P NMR experiments from Chapter 2, a next generation NMR probe to observe anion exchange reactions of metal triflate Lewis acids is developed. Metal-ligand titrations are performed for a variety of metal triflates with complexes of the type (POCOP)Pd(X) (X = Cl, Br, I, OAc) to observe a variety of different X anion affinities for metal triflates. The determined parameters are discussed within the context of Lewis acid catalyzed reactions, along with other Lewis acidity parameters, such as hydrolysis constants and effective charge density. The data suggest that the chloride and iodide anion affinities of a Lewis acid represent a continuum of π-acidity (high anion affinity) and propensity to dissociate into cationic Mz+ species (low anion affinity). The anion affinities do not correlate with the tendency of a metal salt to release Brønsted acids or their respective effective charge densities. Based on the insight into Lewis acidity from Chapters 1 and 3, the parallel between Brønsted and Lewis acids is realized, and the role of both Brønsted and Lewis acids in mediating organic reactions is often related. In Chapter 4, further questions into the cooperativity of π-acids and Brønsted acids is explored. It is demonstrated that selectivity of alkene isomerization can be controlled through a cooperative system. A series of Mo(0) complexes are prepared and explored in their ability to mediate the conversion of terminal alkenes to internal alkenes, and the reaction is found to be promoted by Brønsted acid (TsOH) cocatalyst. Rational design principles are developed to maximize selectivity for (Z)-2-alkenes in this catalyst system. It is proposed that TsOH acts to generate a catalytic MoH species which mediates catalysis, and the role of phosphine ligands is critical in inhibiting the formation of less selective isomerization catalysts. Chapter 5 and 6 entail further method development for catalytic reactions based on the mechanistic wisdom described in previous chapters. High throughput experimentation is employed to rapidly assess conceptual aspects of Pd catalysis, such as ligand and additive effects, and facilitate catalyst discovery and optimization. Based on the substrate scope performed in Chapter 2, it was realized there is a knowledge gap in the ability to synthesize tertiary sulfonamides, both in terms of conventional methods, or modern Pd-catalyzed methods. A significant advance in organic reaction methodology is described: a new Pd catalyst featuring the AdBippyPhos ligand is discovered to be apt for the coupling of secondary sulfonamides with heteroaryl halides to yield tertiary N-heteroarylhalides. Using high throughput experimentation, 24 diverse heterocycles are screened with 12 sulfonamide variants to prepare >100 new products on microscale. Computational modelling reveals the unique steric parameters of the AdBippyPhos ligand, and a mechanistic rationale for its success in catalysis is provided. Lastly, Chapter 6 describes the use of a LiOTf additive to control the selectivity of Pd-catalyzed C-C bond forming reactions. In the presence of LiOTf, a Mizoroki-Heck type reaction, the alkenylation of an aryl halide with a vinyl ether, proceeds with regioselectivity. In the absence of LiOTf, a solvent (CH3CN) activation pathway proceeds to give benzyl nitrile products. High throughput microscale reactions discovered that the Pd/xantphos catalyst is uniquely selective to provide branched styrenes when using the Cs2CO3/CH3CN base/solvent combination. However, reaction performance differed on large scale reactions, where LiOTf was necessary to observe the Mizoroki-Heck reaction pathway. Mechanistic study, in the form of kinetic experiments and 31P NMR experiments, focused on the role of LiOTf in affecting chemoselectivity. It is proposed that xantphos oxidation is responsible for mediating the Mizoroki-Heck reaction pathway, whereas in the absence of xantphos oxidation, CH3CN α-arylation ensues. Due to the insoluble nature of the catalyst materials, xantphos oxidation is ordinarily slow under anaerobic conditions due to mass transfer limitation. LiOTf generates a soluble [(xantphos)Pd(NCCH3)2][OTf]2 and potentially mediates the formation of xantphos-monoxide catalyst which is competent for alkenylation.

This work investigates the American-Indian policy between 1790 and 1810 through the vehicle of the American government, focusing on the  white, sincere, religious-minded men who believed intensely in both American expansion and positive relations with the Indians. While Indian reaction comprises an important piece of the native-white cultural encounter in the West, this study questions if scholars have the ability to address this problem in more than a very general way. In truth, each tribe was unique and different in their reaction to white legislation and settlement. There was no pan-Indian movement against settlement, and for the same reason, there is no pan-Indian history. However, it is possible to write of the white Americans as more of a single entity. They were closely united both in outlook and in goals. They had a single program which they meant to apply to all the Indians. This work will attempt to assess the piece of this policy regarding the fur trade and the Northwest. This study also links the Republican policies of Thomas Jefferson with the platforms of his federalist predecessors. Thorough investigation reveals choices in Western settlement were made by both government officials and settlers. Settlement of the Western frontier did not follow a predetermined path; private settlement and frontier violence were not predestined. Many junctures existed where it could have shifted. Lewis and Clark can be used as a case study with which to assess Jeffersonian policy. First, the men followed direct orders from Jefferson, instructed to act as the  forward voice of his anticipated policy. Second, the men recorded almost the entirety of the voyage, and thoroughly captured the initial contact between whites and natives. Moreover, this contact occurred in region without previous contact with whites. As such, the Lewis and Clark expedition affords a unique opportunity to eliminate some of the inherent biases which were amassed during the colonial period of contact, both with the British and the American colonies.

The purpose of this thesis is to determine how guilt and shame act as engines of social control in two Gothic narratives of the 1790s, how they tie into the terror and horror modes of the genre, and how they give rise to two distinct narrative models, one centered on punishment and the other on rehabilitation. The premise of the paper is that both Matthew G. Lewis's The Monk and Ann Radcliffe's The Italian harness radically different emotional responses, one that demands the punishment of the aberrant individual and the other that reveres the reformative power of domestic felicity. The purposes of both responses are to civilize readers and their respective representations of the Holy Office of the Inquisition are central to this process. I examine the role of the Inquisition in The Monk and contrast it with the depiction of the same institution in The Italian. Lewis's book subordinates the ecclesiastical world to the authority of the aristocracy and uses graphic scenes of torture to support conservative forms of social control based on shame. The Italian, on the other hand, depicted the Inquisition as a conspiratorial body that causes Radcliffe's protagonists, and by extension her readers, to question their complicity in oppressive systems of social control and look for alternative means to punishment. The result is a push toward rehabilitation that is socially progressive but questions the English Enlightenment's promotion of the carceral.

Experimental studies on the coupled effects of transport properties and unsteady fluid dynamics have been conducted on laminar, acoustically forced, hydrogen jet diffusion flames diluted by argon and helium. The primary purpose of this research is to determine how the fuel Lewis number and the flow unsteadiness play a combined role in maximum flame temperature and affect NOx emission from jet diffusion flame. The fuel Lewis number is varied by increasing/decreasing the mole fraction of diluents in the fuel stream. Therefore, maximum flame temperatures and then NOx emission levels were expected to differ for Ar- and He-diluted flames. In an investigation of unsteady flames, two different frequencies (10 and 100 Hz) were applied to observe a behavior of NOx emission levels and flame lengths by changes of unsteady fluid dynamics and transport properties.

Understanding gender, sex, and sexuality is required in order to be a competent, patient-centered physician, and, therefore, inclusion of these topics in undergraduate medical education is essential. Current medical education is not producing physicians equipped to manage the complaints and issues that face their patients in these areas. LGBTQ populations are most affected by the inadequacy of training related to these topics. LGBTQ patients face unique issues in healthcare in terms of their normal development, pathology, social determinants of health, and healthcare system practices. Additionally, LGBTQ people and those who engage in behaviors that parallel these identities are prevalent in the general population. The addition of a gender, sex, and sexuality curriculum would simultaneously address LGBTQ disparities as well as the need for improved sexual health education that would benefit all patients. Currently, undergraduate medical curricula have limited, non-standardized education on gender, sex, and sexuality. A few American institutions have published both qualitative and quantitative studies that indicate medical students’ attitudes are malleable and their clinical skills can be improved in these areas. Further, numerous national medical societies have created curriculum guidelines and recommendations in order to aid medical schools looking to bolster their gender, sex, and sexuality related curricula. This paper will synthesize research and these guidelines to propose a robust gender, sex, and sexuality curriculum that is tailored to the environment found at the Lewis Katz School of Medicine at Temple University.

This thesis project examines the history, provenance, and contemporary treatment of a rare Imperial Edition of Frederick Sander’s print collection Reichenbachia, Orchids Illustrated and Described, a high-quality orchid compendium dating to the late-nineteenth century. A local philanthropist loaned the Imperial Edition Reichenbachia, number 86 of 100 to Lewis Ginter Botanical Garden in 2011 on a long-term basis as a promised donation. Research into the origins of this collection involves several disparate historical topics, including the Victorian period of “orchid mania,” imperialist business practices, and chromolithographic printmaking. Discussion of the transition of this collection into a museum art collection covers its consequent registration, conservation, and exhibition. Finally, this thesis project considers the advantages and disadvantages of managing an art collection at a botanical garden.

My primary aim for this study is to illuminate the Ransom trilogy's inherent psychological and spiritual themes, as well as demonstrate how these themes clarify Lewis's philosophical and political goals for the text. Specifically, by investigating Lewis's mythic imagery and suffering motifs in light of psychoanalytic and theological literary criticisms, I elucidate the reasoning behind Lewis's unique - and at times, horrific - portrayal of fear, violence, and death. I also investigate how Lewis integrates his theology with the horrors of personal and intrapersonal suffering, as well as how he utilizes imagination and myth to explicate the practical (or political) implications of his theodicy. As a whole, I present a systematic study of the relationship between the Great War, myth, and the three Ransom novels, one which reveals how Lewis manipulates his personal traumatic experiences to fashion a romantic Christian understanding of evil and violence in the modern world.

Políticas culturais são pensadas e implementadas de maneiras consideravelmente distintas no atual cenário mundial. No Brasil, diversas foram as fases e tendências assumidas pelo governo, mas, em geral, o mecanismo de incentivo fiscal, desde meados da década de 80, assume papel de protagonismo no que diz respeito ao financiamento de cultura. Nesse contexto, o atual trabalho buscou conhecer quem são algumas das pessoas responsáveis por gerir, na área cultural, recursos públicos advindos prioritariamente das leis de incentivo fiscal e identificar a percepção de tais profissionais quanto a sua aptidão para realizar essa função. Para coleta de dados, foram realizadas entrevistas com profissionais da área, as quais se conduziram com base em um roteiro de questões que buscou verificar conhecimentos, práticas, opiniões e representações sociais acerca da gestão de atividades culturais. Os dados qualitativos obtidos foram analisados por meio do Discurso do Sujeito Coletivo (DSC). Em tal metodologia, elementos com sentidos semelhantes são processados sob a forma de discursos únicos, redigidos na primeira pessoa do singular. Os gestores e as gestoras demonstraram, em sua maioria, enfrentar dificuldades para realizar algumas das tarefas que desempenham e, geralmente sem formação específica na área, falam sobre empirismo e contratação de empresas para assessoramento e segurança. Quando buscam se especializar para não mais depender de intermediação, encontram, majoritariamente, cursos descontinuados e de curta duração - normalmente pagos e oferecidos em capitais estaduais.
Cultural policies nowadays are designed and implemented based on different perspectives. In Brazil, government has assumed several phases and trends, but in general tax incentive takes leading role with regard to the financing of culture since the mid-80. In this context, the present study aimed to identify some people responsible for managing public resources in the cultural area and to identify the perception of such professionals about their ability to perform this function. For data collection, cultural managers were interviewed. The intention was to verify knowledge, practices, beliefs and social representations of cultural management. The method used to analyze qualitative data obtained was the Discourse of the collective subject (DCS). So, elements with similar senses were processed into single speeches, written in the first person singular. It was noted that sometimes, managers are struggling to play their role and, generally without specific training in the area, they talk about empiricism and hiring companies for advice and security. When seeking specialization, they found, mostly, discontinued and short courses - usually paid and offered in main cities.

Este estudo busca elaborar uma análise sobre o pensamento do jurista e sociólogo Oliveira Vianna, abordando as principais ideias defendidas em suas obras para, então, considerar o período em que atuou como Consultor Jurídico do Ministério do Trabalho do governo Vargas, identificando sua influência sobre a legislação trabalhista e sindical recém-elaborada, demonstrando, ainda, os problemas enfrentados por Vianna com a classe patronal e que culminou com sua saída do referido Ministério. Com essas informações, o objetivo central do presente trabalho será avaliar a natureza de permeabilidade da Consolidação das Leis do Trabalho, tendo como ponto de questionamento a existência e atuação das Convenções Coletivas, dotadas ambas de objetivos similares, atuando inicialmente de maneira complementar para, então, após o alcance da preparação social para implantação de institutos corporativos, ter a CLT sua existência relativizada.
This study aims to develop an analysis of the thought of the jurist and sociologist Oliveira Vianna, addressing main ideas defended in his works to then consider the period in which he served as Legal Counselor of the Labor Ministry in the Vargas government, identifying its influence on lab and syndical laws newly developed, also demonstrating the problems faced by Vianna with the employer class and that culminated in his departure from this Ministry. With this information, the central objective of this study is to evaluate the nature of permeability of the Consolidation of Labor Laws, taking as a point of questioning the existence and activity of the Collective Conventions, both endowed with similar objectives, initially acting in a complementary way to then, after reaching social preparation for implementation of corporate institutes, have the CLT their existence relativized.

The present study is aimed at examining the impact of the constitutional theory of international human rights treaties on Convention number 158 of the International Labor Organization (ILO). The importance of this study is translated in an attempt to correlate part of the constitutional theory of human rights to national labor law for the application of appropriate standards. For this purpose, the study begins with an analysis of the conception and denomination of human rights for a better understanding of the topic. The origin of human rights is further assessed to confirm its progressiveness in time, which would certainly influence the manner in which these rights must be interpreted. Taking into account the historical evolution of human rights, these rights may be classified according to different generations and dimensions. Subsequently, a study on international treaties is conducted to observe whether the ILO Conventions are international treaties for human rights protection and the Federal Constitution is related to the International Human Rights Treaties. The study further analyzes the constitutional regime of human rights treaties (its hierarchical threshold in Brazilian law, formation, incorporation and denouncement) indicating the main theories about the subject. Furthermore, the study addresses the impact of human rights treaties on our legal system, and more specifically on Brazilian Labor Law. With this intent, Convention number 158 of the ILO is evaluated because it is a relevant and modern topic. The study also discusses the compatibility of rules predicted in Convention number 158 with constitutional precepts, in order to assess the constitutionality (or lack of constitutionality) of its content and its denunciation by the Brazilian State. In conclusion, after detailing precepts of the Convention, the study indicates doctrinal and jurisprudential criteria to compensate for the failure to apply Convention number 158/ILO
O presente trabalho destina-se ao estudo do impacto da teoria constitucional dos tratados internacionais sobre direitos humanos na Convenção 158 da Organização Internacional do Trabalho (OIT). Sua importância se traduz na tentativa de relacionar parte da teoria constitucional dos direitos humanos ao direito do trabalho nacional, para a aplicação da normativa correta. Para tanto, inicia-se com a análise da conceituação e da denominação dos direitos humanos para melhor compreensão do tema. Em seguida, verifica-se a origem dos direitos humanos para que seja comprovada sua progressividade no tempo, o que certamente influi na forma pela qual esses direitos devem ser interpretados. Levando em conta a evolução histórica dos direitos humanos, esses podem ser classificados segundo diferentes gerações ou dimensões. Posteriormente, é realizado estudo acerca dos tratados internacionais, observando-se as Convenções da OIT são tratados internacionais de proteção aos direitos humanos e relacionando a Constituição Federal com os Tratados Internacionais sobre Direitos Humanos. Em seguida, analisa o regime constitucional dos tratados de direitos humanos (seu patamar hierárquico no direito brasileiro, formação, incorporação e denúncia), apontando as principais teorias a respeito do tema. Ainda, trata do impacto dos tratados de direitos humanos em nosso ordenamento e, especificamente, no direito do trabalho brasileiro. Para tanto, estuda a Convenção 158 da OIT, pela relevância e atualidade do tema. Nesse sentido, discorre sobre a compatibilidade das normas previstas na Convenção 158 com os preceitos constitucionais, a fim de verificar a constitucionalidade ou não de seu conteúdo e de sua denúncia pelo Estado brasileiro. Por fim, após detalhar os preceitos da Convenção, aponta os critérios doutrinários e jurisprudenciais para que seja suprida a omissão decorrente da não aplicação da Convenção 158/OIT

Propõe-se, neste trabalho, com base na perspectiva piagetiana, investigar, analisar e refletir a respeito das concepções e práticas educacionais dos acolhimentos institucionais e dos educadores desses serviços de acolhimento para crianças e adolescentes em situação de risco social do Estado de São Paulo. Para esse fim, primeiramente identifica as concepções e práticas educacionais morais das instituições e, seguidamente, as dos educadores de duas dessas instituições de acolhimento com práticas educativas diferenciadas (uma mais tradicional e moralizadora, e outra com educação ativa), relacionando-as com a legislação sobre o direito ao desenvolvimento moral. Assim, além do levantamento bibliográfico e documental, realizou-se uma investigação exploratória dividida em duas etapas. Para a primeira etapa contatou-se 163 instituições de acolhimento do Estado de São Paulo para o recrutamento para participarem de uma entrevista online (google docs), destes, obtivemos 22 respondentes. Considerando que uma instituição não é necessariamente representada apenas pela visão de um de seus integrantes, obteve-se com os dados desta primeira etapa uma indicação de como o respondente qualifica sua instituição, sendo assim, pode-se verificar que grande parte dos respondentes indicou que sua instituição tende a uma educação mais ativa. A partir desses resultados, pode-se destacar e escolher duas instituições que se opuseram extremamente em suas respostas para participarem da etapa subsequente. Para a segunda etapa fez-se uso de entrevista semiestruturada com os educadores/cuidadores e coordenação dessas instituições, além de observação da rotina por seis dias consecutivos (seis horas por dia) em cada uma, seguindo um roteiro de observação. Para análise dos resultados da entrevista semiestruturada, utilizou-se a metodologia de Discurso do Sujeito Coletivo, que deu voz à coletividade da equipe de educadores da instituição, expondo suas concepções e práticas educativas, a fim de entender o modelo pedagógico inerente à rotina das instituições investigadas. Os resultados demonstram que o trabalho educativo em uma instituição de acolhimento para crianças e adolescentes em situação de risco social inclui diversos atributos e complexidades que influenciam diretamente na concepção e prática de uma educação moral. A falta de comunicação e clareza entre a equipe técnica e educadores sobre o fim que se espera para a educação dos acolhidos e os processos para se chegar a esse fim desejado têm resultado em concepções e práticas destoadas, possibilitando ações educativas não refletidas e isoladas do todo. Além disso, a falta de orientação/capacitação e formação continuada para os educadores, que permita se desvencilhar do senso comum e busque atingir os direitos legalmente alcançados, e a falta de um momento interativo com o objetivo de educadores compartilharem estratégias, problemas e aflições sobre as práticas educativas na instituição, dificulta o estabelecimento de um plano conjunto de ações educativas evidentes a todos e em momentos de reflexão e avaliação de suas práticas. Nessa perspectiva, acredita-se que se deve ter um olhar atento e ações mais efetivas da equipe educativa (equipe técnica, educadores/cuidadores e auxiliar de educador/cuidador) sobre a educação moral dos acolhidos, assim como das políticas públicas e de pesquisadores, em parceria com os serviços de acolhimento.
Based on the Piagetian perspective, it is proposed to investigate, analyze and reflect on the educational conceptions and practices of institutional sheltering and educators of these reception services for children and adolescents in situations of social risk in the State of São Paulo. For this purpose, it’s first identified the moral educational conceptions and practices of two institutions and then, the conceptions of the educators with differentiated educational practices (one more traditional and moralizing and the other with an active education), relating them to the legislation about the right of moral development. Thus, besides the bibliographical and documentary survey, an exploratory investigation was accomplished divided in two stages. For the first stage, 163 institutions of the State of São Paulo were contacted for recruitment to participate in an online interview (google docs), from all of them, we obtained 22 respondents. Since an institution is not only represented by the vision of one of its member, it was obtained as a result, in the first stage an indication of how a respondent qualifies the institution, so it can be verified that most respondents indicated that their institution tends to a more active education. From these results, it was highlighted and chosen two institutions that oppose their responses to participate in the subsequent stage. For a second step, the semi-structured interview method was used with the educators / supervisors, besides an observation of the routine for six consecutive hours of six consecutive days in each one, following an observation script. For the analysis of the results of the semi-structured interview, the methodology of the Discourse of the Collective Subject was used, giving voice to the collective of the educational institution educators, exposing their conceptions and educational practices, in order to understand the pedagogical model of teaching inherent to the routine of the institutions that were investigated. The results demonstrate that the educational work in an educational sheltering institution for children and adolescents at social risk includes several attributes and complexities that directly influence the conception and practice of a moral education. The lack of communication and clarity between the technical team and the educators about the expected end of the education of those who were welcomed and the processes to achieve that, have resulted in dissonant conceptions and practices, enabling educational actions not reflected and isolated from the whole. In addition, the lack of orientation / training and continued formation for educators, which allows them to get rid of the common sense in order to reach the legally achieved rights, and the lack of a moment of interaction with the goal of educators share strategies, problems and afflictions about the educational practices in the institution, makes it difficult to establish a plan of evident educational actions to all moments of reflection and evaluation of their practices. From this perspective, it is believed that it’s necessary to have a closer look and more effective actions from the educational team (technical staff, educators / caretakers and auxiliary of educator / caregiver) about the moral education of the welcomed children or adolescents, as well as public policies and researchers, in partnership with the host services.

The aim of this study is to demonstrate the legal vulnerability of the consumer and collective action as an instrument of control in the face of the abusive stipulation of the compensatory fine in the adhesion contracts. For this, the present research starts from the analysis of the concept of consumer and supplier with the objective of distinguishing the relation of consumption of the other legal relations. Once the field of consumer relations has been delimited in the micro-system of Law 8.078/1990 – Code of Consumer Protection, we will discuss the principles of the Code, demonstrating the importance of the principles as limiting the abusive stipulation of the compensatory fine in the face of the consumer, giving emphasis on the principle of vulnerability, considering its legal vulnerability in the contractual relationship with the supplier of products and services. Next, we will study the consumption contracts and their historical evolution, differentiating the joint contracts from the contracts of adhesion, highlighting the use of this in the relations of consumption. With the increase of the adhesion contracts in the consumer relations, it is essential to study the unfair terms, since they are consumer protection rules in the face of the abuses committed by the suppliers in the contracts. In view of this, we will deal with the fine (penal clause), emphasizing the compensatory fine and the way in which the courts interpret the abusive stipulation of the compensatory fine in consumer contracts (reducing it to 10% based on article 413 of CC c/c Article 9 of Decree-Law 22.626/33), which we consider to be contrary to what is set forth in art. 51, which establishes nullity in the hypothesis of unfair terms, since the dialogue between the sources between the CDC and the CC (other infraconstitutional laws) will only occur when in the benefit of the consumer. Finally, we will demonstrate the importance of collective actions as an instrument to control the compensatory fines stipulated abusively in the consumer compliance contracts, in the face of consumer vulnerability
Pretende-se, com este estudo, demonstrar a vulnerabilidade jurídica do consumidor e a ação coletiva como instrumento de controle em face da estipulação abusiva da multa compensatória nos contratos de adesão. Para tanto, a presente pesquisa parte da análise do conceito de consumidor e fornecedor com o objetivo de distinguir a relação de consumo das demais relações jurídicas. Uma vez delimitado o campo de atuação das relações de consumo ao microssistema da Lei 8.078/1990 – Código de Defesa do Consumidor, abordaremos a principiologia do Código, demonstrando a importância dos princípios como limitadores na estipulação abusiva da multa compensatória em face do consumidor, dando ênfase ao princípio da vulnerabilidade, considerando a sua vulnerabilidade jurídica na relação contratual para com o fornecedor de produtos e serviços. Na sequência, passaremos ao estudo dos contratos de consumo e a sua evolução histórica, diferenciando os contratos paritários dos contratos de adesão, destacando o uso deste nas relações de consumo. Com o aumento dos contratos de adesão nas relações de consumo, torna-se imprescindível o estudo das cláusulas abusivas, por serem normas protetivas dos consumidores em face dos abusos cometidos pelos fornecedores nos contratos. Diante isso, trataremos da multa (cláusula penal), enfatizando a multa compensatória e como os tribunais têm interpretado a estipulação abusiva da multa compensatória nos contratos de consumo (reduzindo-a para 10% com base no art. 413 do CC c/c art. 9º do Decreto-Lei 22.626/33), o que entendemos ser contrário ao previsto no art. 51, caput, do CDC, que impõe a nulidade de pleno na hipótese de cláusulas abusivas, pois o diálogo das fontes entre o CDC e o CC (demais leis infraconstitucionais) somente ocorrerá quando em benefício do consumidor. Por fim, demonstraremos a importância das ações coletivas como instrumento de controle das multas compensatórias estipuladas abusivamente nos contratos de adesão de consumo, diante da vulnerabilidade do consumidor
