Abstract:
While the Sixth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution guarantees indigent defendant’s legal representation in state and federal courts, public defenders’ offices are challenged by the lack of resources to represent an endless flow of clients, attract and retain talented counsel, enlist the help of expert witnesses, as well as deliver the best quality defense. This study addresses the daily strain of defending clients who are not always the most cooperative in helping their own defense, but it also reveals the struggles and challenges faced by an urban southern public defender’s office and what changes need to be implemented to improve the public defender system. In the end, this study finds that public defender programs need adequate funding to fully deliver a quality legal defense.

Abstract:
With the transition to democracy, Latin American countries have embarked on implementing judicial reforms to redesign justice-sector institutions and build up the rule of law in the region. Reform efforts included empowe¬ring the courts, granting political independence to the public prosecutor’s office, professionalizing the public defender offices and implementing the accusatory criminal system in justice-sector institutions. To what extent are the reforms tar¬geted at the public defender offices changing the way legal defense is provided? In this article, after discussing a theoretical framework that captures and opera¬tionalizes the concepts of a merit-based career system, an accusatory criminal justice system and effective legal representation, I examine the extent to which the changes of transitioning from an inquisitorial to an adversarial system and from a non-merit-based career system to a merit-based career system have affec¬ted the way legal counsel is provided at subnational public defender offices. To accomplish this, I provide both a de jure and de facto measures (indicators of reform implementation). To identify the de jure indicators, I consulted legal texts (constitutions and secondary laws), and to gauge how the de facto indi¬cators work, I relied on interviews with public defenders, reports and academic documents. I collected 50 interviews with public defense attorneys from three Mexican states: Baja California Sur, Jalisco and Nuevo León. Findings from these states suggest that as reform implementation advances, public defenders have more tools to offer legal representation; more specifically, they are better trained, in addition to having higher salaries, a lower caseload per defender and increased access to forensic services.

Abstract:
This paper develops a framework for analyzing a defender's allocation of scarce resources against a strategic adversary like a terrorist group in four settings: (1) a baseline case in which the sites the defender tries to guard are “independent” in that resources dedicated to protecting one site have no effect on any other site; (2) if the defender can also allocate resources to border defense, intelligence, or counterterrorist operations which, if successful, protect all of the sites; (3) if threats have strategic and nonstrategic components (e.g., the threat to public health from bioterror attacks and the natural outbreak of new diseases); and (4) if the defender is unsure of the terrorists' preferred targets. The analysis characterizes the defender's optimal (equilibrium) allocations in these settings, an algorithm or approach to finding the optimal allocations, and relevant comparative statics. These characterizations provide a general way of thinking about the resource-allocation problem in these settings.

Abstract:
In the United States, defendants in both federal and state prosecutions have the constitutional right to effective assistance of counsel. That right is in jeopardy. In the postconviction setting, the standard for ineffective assistance of counsel is prohibitively high, and Congress has restricted federal habeas review. At trial, severe underfunding for state indigent defense systems has led to low pay, little support, and extreme caseloads—which combine to create conditions where lawyers simply cannot represent clients adequately. Overworked public defenders and contract attorneys represent 80 percent of state felony defendants annually. Three out of four countywide public defender systems and fifteen out of twenty-two statewide public defender systems operate with yearly caseloads that are significantly higher than the ABA recommends. This Note argues that courts should utilize the procedural ineffectiveness presumption that the Supreme Court made available in United States v. Cronic to find state defense counsel carrying caseloads above the ABA-recommended maximums constitutionally ineffective. Thus, defendants could not be tried until caseloads in the locality fell within the maximums. This would incentivize state and local legislatures to spend more money on indigent defense.

Abstract:
The growing use of digital evidence from smartphones and social media has led to a digital divide in the US criminal justice system that advantages law enforcement and prosecutors while further increasing the vulnerability of poor people and people of color who rely on public legal assistance. Drawing on a year-long ethnographic study of one of the first digital forensics laboratories in a public defender office, I argue that digital inclusion in the form of better resources for public defenders is necessary for equitable and fair representation in today’s criminal justice system. Findings show that access to digital forensic technologies is an important equalizing tool that allows public defenders to (1) mount strong, data-driven cases; (2) create counter narratives that challenge depictions of marginalized defendants as dangerous; and (3) engage in nuanced storytelling to highlight the complexities of human relationships and life circumstances that shape cases.

Abstract:
The Neighborhood Defender Service of Harlem (NDS) opened its doors in 1990, hoping to demonstrate the benefits of a community-based, team-based public defender that began representation from the moment of arrest, or even earlier. Although pretrial detention time was not statistically different for NDS clients compared with similar defendants, NDS clients ultimately received significantly shorter sentences, and the savings to the government in terms of jail and prison time were substantial. More than twenty years after its debut, NDS continues to show that high-quality public defense can play an important role in any strategy to unwind mass incarceration while improving the quality of criminal justice generally.

Abstract:
Research has demonstrated that implicit bias is an inescapable part of the human experience that can have harmful repercussions. Its effects can be seen particularly in the criminal justice system where those of marginalized groups are disproportionately represented. Social workers in the public defender’s office representing indigent clients in the criminal justice system, implicit bias can negatively impact client outcomes or service access. This study sought to explore how these social workers understand implicit bias in their work and will be conducted using qualitative analysis through the use of interviews and document review. This research found that social workers in this setting identify in ways that are very different from their clients and view the resulting implicit bias as an important hurdle to overcome. Social workers reported that working with clients who are similar to them can increase rapport but also introduce issues of countertransference. When working with clients who are different from them, social workers found it most challenging to serve clients with worldviews they found personally offensive, such as homophobia or white supremacy. Social workers of more privileged identities found ways to leverage this advantage to best serve their clients. The participants in this study had mixed feelings on whether or not differences in identity between social workers and clients increase implicit bias or impact client outcomes. There are many larger factors that increase the risk of implicit bias, which participants feel can be mitigated with training and more diverse teams.

Abstract:
Our criminal justice system works very hard to prevent criminals from harming other individuals; however, unfortunately mistakes happen. One wrongful conviction is one too many. There are multiple factors that can be assumed to be the cause of wrongful convictions. However, due to the lack of directly related research, the determents are not well established. The following research addresses wrongful convictions as a result of public defender representation. Through the process of theory construction, the research uses critical race theory and social disorganization theory to show the relationship between court appointed representation and wrongful convictions. A new theory is also established that is referred to as the partial load reduction theory. This theory establishes the relationship that exists between wrongful convictions and public defender representation and provides solutions as well as new avenues for future research.

Abstract:

Utah public defenders (n = 96) completed a survey tool that provided data on their sources and extent of occupational stress. The data also indicated any differences in job-stressors scores, perceived stress scores, and occupational burnout scores when comparing public defenders by their demographic factors. Having too many cases is the most stressful of 35 job stressors and is moderately more stressful for female public defenders than for male public defenders, t(94) = –2.98, p = .004, d = .67. The most stressful of six job-stressor categories is structural/systemic, followed closely by prosecutors.

The PSS-10 indicated that a total of 74% of the Utah public defenders perceive themselves as having moderate or high perceived stress. In addition, female public defenders perceive themselves as experiencing more stress than do the male public defenders, t(94) = –3.53, p = .001, d = .80. ANOVA and Games-Howell post hoc indicated that public defenders aged 60 years or older experience minimally less perceived stress than do public defenders ages 30–39 and 50–59 years old, F(4,18.64) = 4.748, p = .008, η 2p = .104. The MBI-HSS indicated that Utah public defenders are experiencing moderate (inching towards higher) levels of occupational burnout. ANOVA and Tukey post hoc indicated that public defenders age 60 years or older experience minimally less emotional exhaustion than are public defenders ages 30–39 and 50–59 years old, F(4, 91) = 2.833, p = .029, η2 p = .111.

A Constituição da República de 1988 consolidou uma ampla gama de direitos fundamentais, juntamente com uma arquitetura institucional que buscou dar concretude a esses direitos, através de instrumentos jurídicos processuais que legitimaram a propositura de demandas sobre direitos difusos e coletivos, fortalecendo o poder judiciário e a representação funcional. Destaca-se nessa arquitetura o papel das Ações Civis Públicas (ACPs), com a legitimação da sociedade civil para realizar a propositura de tal ação. Entretanto, junto à sociedade instituiu-se outro ator capaz de mobilizar tais instrumentos em defesa da sociedade e dos princípios democráticos, o Ministério Público (MP). Neste cenário, é que a Defensoria Pública, instituição inicialmente integrante do poder executivo e com atribuição de representar em juízo parcelas subalternas da população, conseguiu adquirir autonomia funcional e administrativa. A mobilização da Defensoria promoveu desdobramentos no âmbito interno e externo de tal instituição. No âmbito externo, destaca-se a possibilidade de propor Ação Civil Pública. Dessa forma, a questão-problema que se coloca para a pesquisa é: Como a Defensoria Pública vem exercendo a prerrogativa de tutelar direitos difusos e coletivos? Frente a isso, assume-se como objetivo geral mapear todas as ACPs propostas pelas Defensorias Públicas de Minas Gerias (DPMG), Rio de Janeiro (DPRJ) e São Paulo (DPESP) nos últimos 5 anos. Desdobram-se como objetivos específicos: mapear as ACPs propostas nos últimos cincos anos nos estados pesquisados; descrever a evolução institucional dos órgão estudados; compreender a opção da CF/88 pelo acesso à justiça pela mão do estado; e realizar uma análise crítica do conceito de representação funcional. Tal caminho possibilitou uma reflexão crítica acerca da expansão da representação funcional e da judiciliazação em nosso país que, até o momento, não conheceu limites.
The Republican Constitution of 1988 consolidated a wide range of fundamental rights, alongside an institutional architecture which aimed to materialize such rights, through judicial process instruments that legitimized the proposal of demands regarding diffuse and collective rights, strengthening the judicial power and the functional representation. Within this architecture, the role of the Public Civil Actions (ACPs, in Portuguese) can be highlighted, with the legitimacy of civil society to realize such proposed action. However, within society it was instituted another actor capable of mobilizing such instruments in defense of society and democratic principles, the Public Ministry (MP, in Portuguese). In this scenario, the Public Defense, an institution that at first was part of the executive branch with the task of representing in court the lower classes of population, managed to gain functional and administrative autonomy. The mobilization of the Public Defense promoted outcomes within and outside such institution. In the external realm, we highlight the possibility of proposing a Public Civilian Action. Therefore, the guiding question of this research is: How has the Public Defense been exercising the prerogative of tutelage of diffuse and collective rights? As such, we take as a main goal to map all the ACPs proposed by the Public Defense of Minas Gerais (DPMG, in Portuguese), Rio de Janeiro (DPRJ) and São Paulo (DPSP) in the last 5 years. The specific goals unfold in: mapping the ACPs proposed in the last five years in the researched states; describing the institutional evolution of the studied organs; comprehending the option made by the Constitution of 1988 of access to justice by the hand of the state; and conducting a critical analysis of the concept of functional representation. Such path made it possible to reflect critically regarding the expansion of functional representation as well as about the judicialization of our country, which has known to boundaries so far.

Abstract:
Anecdotal evidence supports the belief among indigent individuals who are assigned defense counsel that they would be better represented by privately retained counsel. This perspective jeopardizes attorney effectiveness by reducing communication and trust between the attorney and client. Research on the effectiveness of counsel is sparse. The purpose of this quantitative study was to bridge this gap in knowledge by comparing the effectiveness of privately retained and publicly appointed counsel between 2008 and 2013, both before and after the imposition of state-wide compensation limitations on publicly appointed defense counsel. The theoretical framework was Stuntz's theory, which stresses that one part of the criminal justice system will be compensated for elsewhere in the system. Research questions focused on the success rates of publicly funded and privately retained counsel in jury trials in a large state district court in New England. Data were collected from court records and analyzed using tests of proportions and a binary logistic regression to determine the success rates of the types of counsel and whether appointed counsels' relative effectiveness changed after the compensation limitations were imposed in 2011. The results indicated that there was no significant difference in acquittal rates between counsel groups or for either counsel group before and after the imposition of the statewide compensation limits. Implications for positive social change include educating defendants on the effectiveness of publicly appointed counsel to enhance the trust within these attorney-client relationships, and improving the quality of discourse in legislative deliberations focused on weighing budget cuts to appointed counsel compensation with the risk to the fair administration of justice.

Abstract:
O trabalho apresenta um estudo sistematizado da curadoria especial, focando especialmente em sua efetividade para a tutela de vulneráveis processuais. Após abordar a vulnerabilidade no âmbito do processo civil, indica que as hipóteses em que há previsão de atuação do curador especial são situações em que a parte está em condições de especial dificuldade para exercer plenamente seus direitos. É apresentado o histórico da curadoria especial até o contexto atual, em que passa a ser função institucional da Defensoria Pública. Analisa pormenorizadamente as peculiaridades da atuação do curador especial na tutela dos direitos do réu revel citado por edital ou com hora certa, do réu preso e do incapaz sem representante legal ou cujos interesses colidam com os de seu representante. A efetividade da curadoria especial é evidenciada pela forma com que a atividade é desempenhada em cada fase do processo. Além disso, apresenta análise de julgados do Supremo Tribunal Federal, do Superior Tribunal de Justiça e do Tribunal de Justiça do Estado de São Paulo que tratam da atuação do curador especial, demonstrando que, em diversas oportunidades, o exercício desta função traz resultados positivos, ainda que parcialmente, ao litigante vulnerável. Aborda, ainda, dados sobre a curadoria especial no Estado de São Paulo, apontando que a quantidade de processos em que há esta atuação é proporcionalmente pequena em relação ao movimento judiciário total, bem como que o montante empregado diretamente para seu custeio é razoável. O trabalho expõe, ademais, a percepção de defensores públicos do Estado de São Paulo que exercem a atribuição de curadores especiais, por meio de questionário a eles aplicado. Por fim, conjugando todos os dados apresentados, demonstra que a curadoria especial é efetiva para garantir a ampla defesa e o contraditório das partes em situação de vulnerabilidade processual.
This research introduces a systemized study of the special curator´s activity by emphasizing its capacity to provide protection for those in situation of procedural vulnerability. Overcoming the study of the procedural vulnerability, the research shows that the legal rules that determine the special curator´s activity are related to litigants that are in special situations which compromise the practice of its legal rights in court. After providing the special curators development history, the research leads to the allocation of the curator function on to the Public Defender´s Office. The research also analyses the capacity of such activity in order to protect the rights of the defendant in default cited by edict, of the arrested defendant, and of the minor or disable group lacking legal capacity without legal guardian or trustee. Furthermore, the research checks out how the performance of the special curator activity is able to provide a way of overcoming harmful effects from procedural vulnerability in several stages of the civil procedure. Moreover, the research verifies case-laws regarding the special curator activity in the Brazilian Supreme Court of Justice, Brazilian Federal Court of Justice and State of São Paulo´s Court of Appeals. In several opportunities the results are well-founded to the litigant in procedural vulnerability. The information presented regarding the special curator´s activity in the State of São Paulo is able to demonstrate that the legal proceeding quantity and its direct costs are reasonable. An opinion poll on the special curator activities among the Public Defenders reveals their evaluation regarding this subject. Finally, the research put together all the information provided, concluding that the special curator´s activity is able to assist and assure the full defense and the right of adversary proceedings for those in procedural vulnerability situation.

Abstract:
Esta dissertação articula os conceitos relacionados à comunicação pública, cidadania e instituição com o objetivo de analisar processos de comunicação pública que incidem na construção da cidadania, a partir da atuação da Defensoria Pública do Rio Grande do Sul dirigida à defesa dos direitos de pessoas socialmente excluídas. A Defensoria é analisada como instituição constituída pelas perspectivas normativa, fática e estratégica. Os conceitos teóricos trabalhados reportam ao interesse público conforme discutido por Arendt (2014), Sennett (1988) e Bobbio (2012), à cidadania (MARSHALL, 1967; GIDDENS, 2008; CARVALHO, 2013; DAGNINO, 2004) e direitos humanos, a partir da gênese de valores proposta por Joas (2012). A abordagem comunicacional parte do conceito de interações comunicativas, conforme França (1998), desenvolve o conceito de comunicação pública articulando, principalmente, as proposições de Weber (2007, 2009, 2011) e Esteves (2011), e abrande os estudos de comunicação organizacional com Baldissera (2014), Marques (2015), Mumby (2009) e Deetz (2010) e de estratégia em Pérez (2012). A reflexão sobre instituição é feita a partir de Castoriadis (1982), Braga (2010, 2012), Berger e Luckmann (1998). O estudo de caso é a opção metodológica para a abordagem da Defensoria Pública do Rio Grande do Sul enquanto uma dimensão institucional particular. Os procedimentos metodológicos incluem pesquisa documental e bibliográfica da legislação federal sobre a instituição, sobre suas atividades, os defensores e as pessoas atendidas, além de práticas e produtos de comunicação. A análise da Defensoria Pública do Rio Grande do Sul é realizada nas perspectivas normativa (análise histórico-descritiva), fática (análises descritiva e das situações de interação) e estratégica (análises descritiva das estratégias e de temas e vozes). A articulação dessas perspectivas da instituição permitiu cercar a constituição de rede de comunicação pública sobre o tema de interesse público e os direitos de cidadania. Dessa forma, identifica-se a atuação da Defensoria Pública do Rio Grande do Sul como um espaço institucional rico em termos de interação comunicacional, capaz de ampliar as experiências de cidadania e privilegiar o interesse público.
This Master Thesis articulates the concepts related to public communication, citizenship and institution aiming to analyse public communication processes focusing in the construction of citizenship, from the perspective of Rio Grande do Sul´s Public Defender´s work directed to the defence of social excluded individuals´ rights. The analysis focus in the Public Defender as an institution constituted by the normative, factual and strategic perspectives. The main theoretical concepts worked report to public interest, as discussed by Arendt (2014), Sennett (1988) e Bobbio (2012), to citizenship (MARSHALL, 1967; GIDDENS, 2008; CARVALHO, 2013; DAGNINO, 2004) and human rights, starting from the genesis of values proposed by Joas (2012). The communicational approach derives from the communicative interactions concept, according to França (1998), develops the public communication concept articulating, mainly, the propositions from Weber (2007, 2009, 2011) and Esteves (2011), and includes the organizational communication studies with Baldissera (2014), Marques (2015), Mumby (2009) e Deetz (2010) and strategy in Pérez (2012). The observation about institution is made from Castoriadis (1982), Braga (2010, 2012), Berger and Luckmann (1998). The case study is the methodological option for the Rio Grande do Sul Public Defender approach as a particular institutional dimension. The methodological procedures include federal legislation documental and bibliographic research about the institution, its activities, the public defenders and the persons aided, in addition with communication practices and products. The Rio Grande do Sul Public Defender analysis focuses in the normative (historical descriptive analysis), factual (descriptive analysis and from the interaction situations) and strategic (descriptive analysis of strategies and themes and voices analysis). The articulation of these institutional perspectives allowed surrounding the public communication network about the public interest subject and the citizenship rights. Therefore, the Rio Grande do Sul Public Defender is a rich institutional space in terms of communicational interaction, capable of increasing the citizenship experience and prioritise the public interest.

Abstract:
O período pós Constituição Federal de 1988 foi marcado por intensas conquistas normativas sobre as cidades, com legislações avançadas, porém, que não resultaram em uma mudança significativa de concepção de políticas públicas ou na jurisprudência dos Tribunais. A pressuposição do Direito como um sistema autônomo, neutro e universal, que traz soluções para todos os casos concretos, por meio do método dogmático, não permite que se chegue a justificativas satisfatórias para esta inefetividade. A presente dissertação pretende apresentar uma análise sobre como se desenvolve a disputa pelo direito à cidade no campo jurídico, explicitando as abordagens com que este tema é tratado na prática jurídica. Por meio da observação de casos concretos em que há o confronto entre instituições e profissionais jurídicos, busca-se demonstrar como estes concorrem pelo monopólio de impor sua visão de mundo, mascarando as relações de poder pelo discurso jurídico. Além disso, utiliza-se da tópica jurídica para avaliar, em cada caso, como o pensamento dos juristas se desenvolve diante dos problemas aparentemente insolucionáveis. Tomando por base tal metodologia, visa-se a uma apresentação do jogo de poder em torno do direito à cidade que ocorre no campo jurídico, avaliando-se quais as possibilidades da concepção do direito à cidade numa lógica de justiça social, ser consolidada e aplicada efetivamente, conferindo à parcela mais frágil da população o acesso aos bens e serviços da cidade.
The period after the Federal Constitution of 1988 was marked by intense normative achievements over the cities, with advanced legislation, however, which did not result in a significant change in the conception of public policies or in the jurisprudence of the Courts. The presupposition of Law as an autonomous, neutral and universal system, which brings solutions to all concrete cases, through the dogmatic method, does not allow us to arrive at satisfactory justifications for this ineffectiveness. The present dissertation intends to present an analysis on how the dispute for the right to the city in the juridical field develops, explaining the approaches with which this subject is treated in the legal practice. Through the observation of concrete cases in which there is a confrontation between legal institutions and professionals, it is sought to demonstrate how they compete for the monopoly of imposing their world view, masking the relations of power by the legal discourse. In addition, it uses the legal topics to assess, in each case, how the thinking of lawyers develops in the face of seemingly unsolvable problems. Based on this methodology, it is aimed at a presentation of the power game around the right to the city that occurs in the legal field, evaluating the possibilities of the conception of the right to the city in a logic of social justice, being consolidated and applied effectively, giving the most fragile part of the population access to the goods and services of the city.

Abstract:
A pesquisa exibe uma análise referente à interação entre espaço urbano e cidadania, focando na atuação da Defensoria Pública como instituição mediadora do processo político, social e jurídico de reivindicação do direito à moradia, pretendendo estabelecer uma reflexão de fundo sociológico e jurídico. O problema de pesquisa consiste em identificar o papel da Defensoria Pública, destacadamente no que toca às modalidades/possibilidades de atuação, como instituição estatal, na mediação dos conflitos urbanos de reivindicação da concretização da moradia digna pelos grupos vulneráveis. A hipótese central baseia-se na afirmação de que os processos judiciais que tratam da reivindicação do direito à moradia por pessoas vulneráveis não se revelam exitosos, de forma que deve a Defensoria Pública, enquanto instituição de acesso ao sistema de justiça, buscar alternativas extrajudiciais de pleitear o direito em questão, estando sempre atenta às peculiaridades culturais que compõe a cidadania brasileira e que formam seu público assistido. Considera-se que objeto teórico de pesquisa envolve as noções de cidadania, espaço urbano e moradia, que foram cotejadas com o objeto real representado pela Defensoria Pública, enquanto mediadora dos processos de reivindicação de moradia por meio do Direito. O recorte temporal efetuado se deu com ênfase a partir do ano 2000, momento em que a moradia foi alçada à categoria de direito fundamental. A pesquisa se enquadra na vertente jurídico-sociológica, sendo empregado o raciocínio dedutivo. Para tanto, analisam-se as dinâmicas próprias da cidadania no contexto nacional, almejando vinculá-la à efervescência social e política da cena urbana contemporânea. Ao final, debate-se sobre a inserção da Defensoria Pública nesse instável cenário, sempre cotejando as previsões normativas com a realidade vivenciada a fim de não nos perdermos em um dogmatismo etéreo.

The research is an analysis on the interaction between urban space and citizenship, focusing on the performance of the Public Defender as a mediator of the political, social and legal process the claiming of the house, intending to establish a sociological and legal background reflection. The research problem is to identify the role of the Public Defender, notably with regard to modalities / performance possibilities, such as state institution, in mediating the claim of urban conflicts of the implementation of decent housing for vulnerable groups. The central hypothesis is based on the assertion that judicial proceedings dealing with the claim of the right to housing for vulnerable people do not show successful, so should the Public Defender as an institution of access to the justice system, extrajudicial seek alternative claim the right in question, always attentive to the cultural peculiarities that make up the Brazilian citizenship and forming their assisted public. It is considered that theoretical research object involves the notions of citizenship, urban space and housing, which were collated with the real object represented by the Public Defender, as a mediator of housing claim processes through law. The time frame is made with emphasis given from 2000, at which time the house was raised to the category of fundamental right. The research falls within the legal and sociological dimension and is used deductive reasoning. For this, we analyze the dynamics proper citizenship in the national context, aiming link it to social unrest and political contemporary urban scene. In the end, the debate is about the insertion of the Public Defender in this unstable scenario, always comparing the normative predictions with the reality experienced in order not to get lost in an ethereal dogmatism.

The Federal Constitution of 1988 is recognized for its enlargement in the face of large amount of provisions that make it up, among which many are fundamental rights. The fundamental rules set up the foundation of a democratic state, however, are the necessary legal mechanisms to be effective, its exercise is not enough merely to state them, but to offer ways for them to stop being just written standard on paper, and come to be viewed and exercised day-to-day. In this sense, access to justice presents itself in our times, as a cornerstone for a just society dictates. In this light, access to justice can be seen as the most fundamental of rights, which translates as instruments able to safeguard the fundamental rights not only against the action/omission violating the state but also the very particular. Furthermore, access to justice within the legal country, is not right for everyone, despite the willingness of the Citizen Charter in its article 5, paragraph LXXIV, ensuring that the State shall provide full and free legal assistance to those in need. More than half of the population lives in poverty and can?t afford to pay legal fees or court costs as well as a bump in their own ignorance of their rights. The judiciary, in their primary function, is in charge of trying to correct the violation of the rights, intending to effect a true distributive justice, serving as a paradigm for the promotion of substantive equality of human beings, however, is difficult and tortuous access Justice for those without financial resources. In this vein, we present the Public Defender, as keeper of the masses in its institutional role, defending a disadvantage, in the words, as a mechanism for effective access to justice, ensuring therefore fundamental rights. Public Defenders arise at the time or much discussion highlights the priority of actual access to justice, custody, therefore, intimate bond with the pursuit of fundamental rights, in which, that advance the broad range of rights, without whom could defend them or guardianship them
A Constitui??o Federal de 1988 ? reconhecida por sua hipertrofia face a grande quantidade de dispositivos legais que a comp?e, dentre os quais, muitos s?o os direitos fundamentais. As normas fundamentais configuram o alicerce do Estado Democr?tico de Direito, no entanto, necess?rios s?o os mecanismos legais ? sua efetiva??o, ao seu exerc?cio, n?o sendo suficiente apenas enunci?-los, mas sim, oferecer meios para que estes deixem de ser apenas norma escrita no papel, e passem a ser visualizados e exercidos no dia-a-dia. Neste sentir, o acesso ? Justi?a apresenta-se, hodiernamente, como viga mestra para uma sociedade dita justa. Sob este prisma, o acesso ? Justi?a pode ser tido como o mais fundamental dos direitos, vez que traduz os instrumentos h?beis a resguardar os direitos fundamentais n?o s? face a a??o/omiss?o violadora do Estado, mas tamb?m, do pr?prio particular. Outrossim, o acesso ? Justi?a dentro da ordem jur?dica p?tria, n?o ? direito de todos, em que pese a disposi??o da Carta Cidad? em seu artigo 5?, inciso LXXIV, garantir que o Estado prestar? assist?ncia jur?dica integral e gratuita aos que dela necessitarem. Mais da metade da popula??o brasileira vive em situa??o de pobreza, n?o podendo dispor de recursos para custear honor?rios advocat?cios, ou despesas processuais, bem como esbarram no pr?prio desconhecimento de seus direitos. O Poder Judici?rio, em sua fun??o prec?pua, encarrega-se de tentar corrigir a viola??o dos direitos, tencionando a efetiva??o de uma verdadeira justi?a distributiva, servindo como paradigma ao fomento da igualdade material do ser humano, entretanto, dif?cil e tortuoso ? o acesso ? Justi?a para aqueles que n?o possuem condi??es financeiras. Nesta senda, apresenta-se a Defensoria P?blica, como guardi? das massas, em sua fun??o institucional, na defesa dos hipossuficientes, ou seja, como instrumento para a efetiva??o do acesso ? Justi?a, garantindo pois, os direitos fundamentais. Os Defensores P?blicos surgem no momento em que muito se discute ou se destaca a prioridade da efetiva??o do acesso ? Justi?a, guarda, portanto, ?ntimo liame com a persegui??o dos direitos fundamentais, na qual, de que adiantaria o vasto leque de direitos, sem quem pudesse defend?-los ou tutel?-los

Abstract:
The Strong Stackelberg Equilibrium (SSE) has drawn extensive attention recently in several security domains. However, the SSE concept neglects the advantage of defender's strategic revelation of her private information, and overestimates the observation ability of the adversaries. In this paper, we overcome these restrictions and analyze the tradeoff between strategic secrecy and commitment in security games. We propose a Disguised-resource Security Game (DSG) where the defender strategically disguises some of her resources. We compare strategic information revelation with public commitment and formally show that they have different advantages depending the payoff structure. To compute the Perfect Bayesian Equilibrium (PBE), several novel approaches are provided, including a novel algorithm based on support set enumeration, and an approximation algorithm for \epsilon-PBE. Extensive experimental evaluation shows that both strategic secrecy and Stackelberg commitment are critical measures in security domain, and our approaches can efficiently solve PBEs for realistic-sized problems.

Abstract:
In important domains from natural resource conservation to public safety, real-time information is becoming increasingly important. Strategic deployment of security cameras and mobile sensors such as drones can provide real-time updates on illegal activities. To help plan for such strategic deployments of sensors and human patrollers, as well as warning signals to ward off adversaries, the defender-attacker security games framework can be used. Previous works do not consider the combined situation of uncertainty in real-time information in addition to strategically signaling to adversaries. In this thesis, we will not only address this gap, but also improve the overall security result by considering security game models and computer vision algorithms together.

The article considers the main milestones of the military and political activity of prince Alexander Nevskiy reflecting the most important milestones of the Russian people's struggle for independence and saving of the Orthodox faith in the XIII century. The public need in saving historical and cultural memory led to the erection of memorable places and objects of cult architecture in honor of A. Nevskiy, including in modern Volgograd. On the basis of the existing objects of the cultural space of Volgograd, the methodological ways of A. Nevskiy's image formation as the defender of medieval Russia and the notion of confrontation with the aggressive aims of Western Europe and the Mongol-Tatars are offered.

Abstract:
Preparing the national economy and territory for defence is an important component in ensuring national security and, in the current geopolitical and military context, it is carried out in peacetime and involves the capitalization of human, material and financial resources in order to ensure the continuity of socio-economic processes and to satisfy the need for defence resources when a state of mobilisation or war is established. Thus, defence forces must be have a full range of resources at their disposal, depending on their specific needs, so that when a crisis, threat or aggression against the state arises, they should be able to carry out their specific missions. Based on the need to make resources available to national defence institutions in extreme situations that endanger the integrity or proper functioning of the State, one of the ways of ensuring the provision of resources is the requisition of goods and services in the public interest.

Abstract:
According to estimates and analyses by the international community of economic analysts, the medical crisis generated by the Covid-19 pandemic will induce a major economic and financial crisis worldwide which, in conjunction with the current geopolitical situation, characterized by a high degree of uncertainty (e.g. strategic economic confrontation between the US and China, the position of force adopted by the Russian Federation), will affect production and supply chains, amplify the phenomenon of the adoption of trade policies of a protectionist nature, and, indirectly, will significantly affect national defense budgets. In this fluid geopolitical context, characterized by insecurity and systemic instability, a strategic rethink and recalibration of defence policies can be predicted in a new context, defined by the multipolar competition and the asymmetry of geopolitical geometry, the conflict between civilizational models (competition between democracy vs. autocratic/totalitarian political regimes), to the detriment of regional and international collective security arrangements. Changing government priorities generated by the pandemic crisis generated by Covid-19 may lead to a reduction in budgets for military endowment programs. Most governments allocate about 2% of GDP annually to the defence sector. Given the pandemic generated by Covid-19, there is a risk that some states will significantly reduce the budget allocated to the defence industry in order to increase the budgets for health systems, given the need to expand hospitals, as well as the purchase of medical equipment and services. In Romania, the topic of tools and opportunities that may be able to ensure the improvement of the effects and overcoming the economic crisis is currently being discussed through active economic measures, including in the field of the defence industry. In Romania, however, the path from debate to public policy and strategy assumed and applied is traditionally long and hard, requiring more pragmatism in addressing strategic economic issues.

Abstract:
Eminent Domain is the power of the government or quasi-government entities to take private or public property interests through condemnation. Eminent Domain has been a significant issue since 1879 when, in the case of Boom Company v. Patterson, the Supreme Court first acknowledged that the power of eminent domain may be delegated by state legislatures to agencies and non-governmental entities. Thus, the era of legal takings began. Though an important legal dispute then, more recently eminent domain has blossomed into an enduring contentious social and political problem throughout the United States. The Fifth Amendment to the United States Constitution states, “nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation.” Thus, in the wake of the now infamous decision in Kelo v. City of New London, where the Court upheld the taking of private property for purely economic benefit as a “public use,” the requirement of “just compensation” stands as the primary defender of constitutionally protected liberty under the federal constitution. In response to Kelo, many state legislatures passed a variety of eminent domain reforms specifically tailoring what qualifies as a public use and how just compensation should be calculated. Texas landowners recognize that the state’s population is growing at a rapid pace. There is an increasing need for more land and resources such as energy and transportation. But, private property rights are equally important, especially in Texas, and must be protected as well. Eminent domain and the condemnation process is not a willing buyer and willing seller transition; it is a legally forced sale. Therefore, it is necessary to consider further improvements to the laws that govern the use of eminent domain so Texas landowners can have more assurance that this process is fair and respectful of their private property rights when they are forced to relinquish their land. This report compiles statutes and information from the other forty-nine states to illustrate how they address key eminent domain issues. Further, this report endeavors to provide a neutral third voice in Texas to strike a more appropriate balance between individual’s property rights and the need for increased economic development. This report breaks down eminent domain into seven major topics that, in addition to Texas, seemed to be similar in many of the other states. These categories are: (1) Awarding of Attorneys’ Fee; (2) Compensation and Valuation; (3) Procedure Prior to Suit; (4) Condemnation Procedure; (5) What Cannot be Condemned; (6) Public Use & Authority to Condemn; and (7) Abandonment. In analyzing these seven categories, this report does not seek to advance a particular interest but only to provide information on how Texas law differs from other states. This report lays out trends seen across other states that are either similar or dissimilar to Texas, and additionally, discusses interesting and unique laws employed by other states that may be of interest to Texas policy makers. Our research found three dominant categories which tend to be major issues across the country: (1) the awarding of attorneys’ fees; (2) the valuation and measurement of just compensation; and (3) procedure prior to suit.
