O meio ambiente em preto e branco: a mensagem ambiental nas páginas do Jornal Gazeta de Sergipe (1972-1992)

Campêllo, Lorena de Oliveira Souza 27 February 2007 (has links)
The influence of the media was a fundamental factor in the society s perception and awareness regarding the environmental crisis. As the media started to provide further information about environmental problems, it contributed to the interference and redirection of human relations and to the relations between society and environment. Communication, allied to other factors, was responsible for adding a strong social component in the process of environmental perception. In fact, without the means of communication coverage is almost certain that old problems had not been brought up into the area of public discourse and had not been part of the political process. Starting from these assertions, how has the environment been represented in printed media in Sergipe during the last three decades? What kind of coverage has the printed journalism given to the environmental question? It was from these concerns and from the assumption that the printed journalism role is fundamental to the formation of complex and critical thinking about the environmental question and its possible solutions like sustainable development, for instance that we intend to analyse in what level and how the Gazeta de Sergipe Newspaper (Sergipe Gazette Neswpaper) published articles with environmental themes from 1972 to 1992, trying to identify the space given to these subjects; their depth; the main themes considered; the environment conceptions published; the main information sources consulted; and, at last, elaborating a historical profile of the evolution of environmental themes conveyed. The object of study and the main source of research is the written press, precisely, the news content of articles with envrironmental themes spread by Gazeta de Sergipe. A content analysis and a hermeneutic and dialectic approach were used as methods of research. Gazeta de Sergipe brought to the society in Sergipe latent discussions that happened during the chosen period (1972-1992). As a traditional newspaper in this state (1948-2003), Gazeta de Sergipe kept itself within one of the most turbulent pages in Brazilian History.We can say, by means of a quantitative and qualitative analysis, that this newspaper realized the existence of a gradual demand for environmental themes and discussions about environment.The conduct of Gazeta de Sergipe was not unfavourable to environmental questions that made part of the social, economic and environmental important tripod that had supported the society in Sergipe, during the twenty researched years, however it gave an isolated coverage to the environmental themes. This posture adopted by the press contributed to a fragmented and partial understanding of the environmental question by the society. / A influência da mídia foi fator fundamental na percepção e conscientização da sociedade no tocante à crise ambiental. Na medida em que passou a fornecer maiores informações sobre os problemas ambientais enfrentados ela contribuiu na interferência e reorientação das relações humanas e da sociedade com a natureza. A comunicação, somada a outros fatores, foi responsável pelo adicionamento de um forte componente social no processo de percepção ambiental. De fato, sem a cobertura dos meios de comunicação é pouco provável que problemas antigos tivessem entrado na área do discurso público e fizesse parte do processo político. Partindo de tais afirmações, como o meio ambiente tem sido representado na mídia impressa sergipana durante as últimas três décadas? Que tipo de cobertura o jornalismo impresso tem dado à questão ambiental? Foi a partir dessas inquietações e do pressuposto de que o papel do jornalismo impresso é fundamental para a formação de uma opinião crítica e complexa da questão ambiental e de suas possíveis soluções - como é o caso do desenvolvimento sustentável - que nos propormos a analisar em que grau e de que forma o jornal Gazeta de Sergipe divulgou matérias com temáticas ambientais entre os anos de 1972 e 1992, buscando identificar o espaço cedido a tais matérias; o nível de abrangência; as principais temáticas abordadas, percebendo a concepção de meio ambiente divulgada; as principais fontes de informação acionadas; e elaborando por fim um perfil histórico da evolução das temáticas ambientais veiculadas. O objeto de estudo e principal fonte do trabalho proposto é a imprensa escrita, precisamente falando, o conteúdo noticioso de matérias com temáticas ambientais divulgadas pelo jornal Gazeta de Sergipe. Fizemos uso da Análise de Conteúdo e de uma abordagem hermenêutico-dialética como métodos de pesquisa. O jornal Gazeta de Sergipe levou à sociedade sergipana, discussões latentes do período trabalhado (1972-1992). Jornal tradicional do Estado (1948-2003) a Gazeta de Sergipe se sustentou dentro de uma das mais turbulentas páginas da história do Brasil. Podemos afirmar, através da análise quantitativa e qualitativa, que o jornal Gazeta de Sergipe percebeu a existência de uma demanda gradativa por temáticas ambientais e discussões acerca do meio ambiente. A conduta do jornal Gazeta de Sergipe não desfavoreceu questões ambientais que fizeram parte do importante tripé sócio-econômico-ambiental que sustentou a sociedade sergipana durante os 20 anos pesquisados, contudo forneceu uma cobertura isolada às temáticas ligadas ao meio ambiente. Essa postura da imprensa contribuiu para um entendimento fragmentado e parcial da questão ambiental por parte da sociedade.

The construction of a scientific debate orbited among theorists as Bakhtin, Foucault, and Pêcheux, Orlandi and reports printed newspaper Folha de Boa Vista, documentary basis for the analysis of speech through the use of linguistic and semiotic ele-ments, sought to criminalize indigenous Roraima. In the six years analyzed, we found that the print media through the journalistic discourse contributed to the process of criminalization of indigenous Roraima. Finally, we identified strategies for building a discourse that criminalizes those same Indians. The analysis takes as a reference the mass of documents that match the selected issues of the newspaper Folha de Boa Vista, where we identified the discursive forms of criminalization of indigenous Roraima, and aims to reveal how it produces the silence of theindigenous in the newspaper pages in reference. / O presente trabalho analisa o discurso sobre criminalização indígena no jornal impresso Folha de Boa Vista, a partir da interpretação dos textos escritos (Manchetes, chamadas, editorias, fotorreportagens, matérias e notícias) e imagéticos (charges), divulgados em suas páginas no período de 2000 (contexto das Comemorações do Brasil 500) a 2005 (época de intensa luta indígena pela homologação da Terra Indígena Raposa Serra do Sol). A construção de um debate científico orbitou entre teóricos como Bakhtin, Foucault, Pêcheux e Orlandi e as reportagens do jornal impresso Folha de Boa Vista, base documental para a análise do discurso que, por meio do uso de textos escritos e imagéticos, procuraram criminalizar o indígena roraimense. Nos seis anos analisados, constatou-se que a mídia impressa contribuiu pelo discurso jornalístico, para o processo de criminalização do indígena roraimense.Enfim, identificou-se as estratégias de construção de um discurso que criminaliza esses mesmos indígenas. A análise tomou como referência a massa documental que corresponde às edições selecionadas do Jornal Folha de Boa Vista, onde foram identificadas as formas discursivas de criminalização do indígena roraimense, e revelaram a forma como se produz o silêncio do indígena nas páginas do jornal em referência.

Although it is explored in its multiple vertices and understanding, public opinion will be scrutinized within its proposed construction in the media perspective, specifically in the political sphere of citizenship. Forward if uses a case study to demonstrate the relationship between the fundamental concepts, excelling a practical integration of these fundamentals applied to a particular case, in order to lead new thinking with social reality. It is the study of construction of the public image of Marconi Perillo, Governor of Goiás, performed by two large circulation print media in the state. The idea is to compare the elaborative form Marconi image projection performed in the ordinary exercise of civil service (2015) and during the political election that starred in 2014, and supported by mainstream media for elections, in particular the observed newspapers. To complement the results of this stage, it was move to a study with journalistic samples from 2016, another year of (municipal) elections that, despite not having Marconi as a candidate, receives it in a very similar way in the discourse of media and construction Of his still image in front of a new scenario and a new role played by him. The idea is to point out how much Marconi Perillo interacts with the media in a chameleonic manner and how he positions himself as a polite leadership in Goiás, albeit under different circumstances and characteristics. By associating the construction of Marconi's public image within these media in the three distinct political moments, the intention is to situate the main contours of the political relationship with journalism to critically discuss the extent to which this influences the formation of public opinion by journalism printed in Goiás. Finally, the complexity of the study will be considered in the light of the constitution of citizenship, including the policy and the right to information are fundamental for the integrity of the citizen. / Este trabalho apresenta uma pesquisa bibliográfica que serve de aporte referencial para a análise da formação da opinião pública inter-relacionada com a mídia, a política e a cidadania. Ainda que seja explorada em seus múltiplos vértices e entendimentos, a opinião pública será perscrutada dentro de sua construção proposta na perspectiva da mídia, especificamente, no âmbito político da cidadania. Adiante, se recorre a um estudo para demonstrar a relação entre os conceitos fundamentais, primando uma inserção prática destes fundamentos aplicados a um determinado case, para que se conduzam novas reflexões com a realidade social. Trata-se do estudo de construção da imagem pública de Marconi Perillo, governador de Goiás, executada por dois veículos impressos de grande circulação no estado. A ideia é comparar a forma elaborativa de projeção da imagem de Marconi executada no exercício ordinário de função pública (2015) e durante o pleito político que protagonizou em 2014, sendo apoiado em eleições pela grande mídia, em particular pelos jornais observados. A inicial amostra jornalística atende ao preâmbulo da pesquisa dentro de uma proposta de análise de discurso crítica. Para complementar os resultados desta etapa, se avançou para um estudo com amostras jornalísticas do ano de 2016, outro ano de eleições (municipais) que apesar de não contar com Marconi enquanto candidato, o recebe de modo muito similar no discurso da mídia e na construção de sua ainda imagem diante um novo cenário e de um novo papel protagonizado por ele. A ideia é apontar o quanto Marconi Perillo interage com a mídia de modo camaleônico e como se posiciona como liderança polílita em Goiás, ainda que em circunstâncias e características distintas. Ao associar a construção da imagem pública de Marconi dentro destes meios nos três distintos momentos políticos a intenção é situar os principais contornos da relação política com o jornalismo para discutir criticamente até que ponto isso influencia na formação da opinião pública pelo jornalismo impresso em Goiás. Por fim, toda a complexidade do estudo será pensada à luz da constituição da cidadania, compreendendo que a política e o direito à informação são fundamentais para a integridade do cidadão.

Desenvolvimento e fabricação de uma mini-impressora 3D para cerâmicas / Development and manufacturing of mini 3D printer machine for ceramics

Luis Hilário Tobler Garcia 14 January 2011 (has links)
O trabalho trata do estudo do processo de impressão tridimensional e desenvolvimento de uma impressora para a produção de corpos-de-prova cerâmicos. A técnica de impressão tridimensional pertence ao grupo de prototipagem rápida e consiste na obtenção de um corpo sólido a partir de um modelo digital de três dimensões, através do fatiamento do modelo tridimensional e da impressão seqüencial de suas respectivas fatias. Durante o processo de impressão, deposita-se um ligante sobre camadas sucessivas de pó e em cada camada, o ligante consolida o pó no formato bidimensional da fatia, que por fim soma-se as outras fatias subseqüentes, consolidando assim o formato tridimensional do modelo. Os equipamentos convencionais de impressão 3D utilizam pós a base de gesso e acrílico, onde o ligante, a base de água, fornece a primeira adesão química; posteriormente é infiltrada uma resina para fornecer uma ligação com o pó de acrílico. Na impressão de cerâmica a base de alumina ou zircônia, o desenvolvimento de ligantes tem de ser realizado visando à adesão química e orgânica combinadas antes da sinterização. Neste projeto, uma mini impressora 3D para corpos de prova foi desenvolvida e com ela foram produzidos corpos de geometria simples e seção constante, cujo projeto, custo, manutenção simplificada e econômica possibilita também o emprego de materiais agressivos nos ligantes, com risco de danificação de componentes, a exemplo de ácido fosfórico, porém com baixo custo de recuperação. Foram analisados diversos tipos pelo dimensionamento de seus aglomerados, fluidez e densidade. Obteve-se pó a base de gesso por R$15,00 o kilograma. Corpos de prova foram analisados com relação à resistência mecânica por flexão de três pontos, densidade, porosidade aparente e imagens por microscopia ótica e microscopia eletrônica de varredura (MEV). Um protótipo de uma mini-impressora foi idealizado, projetado e fabricado, soluções originais e econômicas foram propostas e na sua validação alguns conceitos necessitam de melhorias, ainda assim foram obtidos resultados promissores. Foi desenvolvida uma formulação de pó baseado em gesso que teve o custo de aproximadamente 5% do produto importado. / The work studies the three-dimensional printing process and the development of a 3D printer to produce ceramic specimen. The 3D printing technique belongs to the rapid prototype group and consists in obtaining a solid body from a three-dimensions digital model, through the slicing of the three-dimensional model and the sequential printing of their respective slices. During the printing process, a binder is deposited upon successive powder layers, and in each layer, the binder consolidates the powder into the bi-dimensional shape of the slice, which ultimately adds to the other slices that followed, consolidating the three-dimensional shape model. The conventional 3D printing equipments uses powder based in gypsum and acrylic, where the water-based binder, provides the first chemical bind; subsequently is infiltrated a resin to provide a binding with the acrylic powder. In the ceramic printing based on alumina or zirconia, the development of binders must be accomplished looking for a organic and chemical bind before sintering. In this project, a mini 3D printer for ceramic specimens was developed and built, with it were be produced bodies of simple geometry and constant section, which design, cost and simplified maintenance and cost also enable the use of aggressive materials in binders, with the risk of components damage, such as phosphoric acid, but with low cost to recovery. Were analyzed several types of powders by the sizing of its clusters, fluidity and density. Were obtained gypsum powder for $ 7.00 a kilogram. The specimen were analyzed in relation to the mechanical strength by three-point bending, density, apparent porosity and images by optical microscopy and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). A prototype of a mini 3D printer was designed, engineered and manufactured, unique and economical solutions have been proposed and in its validation some concepts need of improvement, yet promising results were obtained. It was developed a powder formulation based on gypsum that has cost about 5% of the imported product.

Para isso, o jornal O Globo foi selecionado como objeto de análise, pois é um importante meio de comunicação de massa (MCQUAIL, 2003) no país. Os textos escolhidos para análise referem-se a recortes temporais realizados de 1925 a 2016. Assim, reconhecendo a importância da comunicação de massa como o local para a produção e a propagação da ideologia (THOMPSON, 1998), através de uma perspectiva qualitativa com base na Análise Crítica do Discurso (FAIRCLOUGH, 2001[1989],1992,1995) e considerando os gêneros textuais (MARCUSCHI, 2005) historicamente situados, buscamos refletir sobre as representações ideológicas do feminismo e das lutas pelos direitos das mulheres realizadas no jornal. O termo já aparecia nos jornais desde 1925, evidenciando a preocupação da mídia impressa em posicionar-se sobre o assunto. Conforme notamos, ao comparar historicamente os dados, a abordagem realizada por essa mídia sobre o assunto é ora positiva, ora negativa, conforme os interesses desse meio de comunicação e mediante à época. / This work aims to carry out linguistic and social reflections on ideological phenomena (THOMPSON, 1995) which involve the theme "feminism" in mass communication, especially in the print media, making a historical comparison on the approach of this subject. For this, the newspaper O Globo was selected as an object of analysis, since it is an important mean of mass communication (MCQUAIL, 2003) in the country. The texts chosen for analysis refer to time cuts made from 1925 to 2016. Thus, recognizing the importance of mass communication as the locus for the production and propagation of ideology (Thompson, 1998), through a qualitative perspective based In Critical Discourse Analysis (FAIRCLOUGH, 2001 [1989], 1992, 1995) and considering textual genres (MARCUSCHI, 2005), we seek to reflect on the ideological representations of feminism and struggles for women's rights in the newspaper. The term “feminism” had appeared in the newspapers since 1925, evidencing the concern of the print media to position themselves on the subject. As we have seen, in comparing the data historically, the approach taken by this media on the subject is sometimes positive, sometimes negative, according to the interests of this medium and through the time.

Trust & Security issues in Mobile banking and its effect on Customers / Trust & Security issues in Mobile banking and its effect on Customers

Bilal, Muhammad, Sankar, Ganesh January 2011 (has links)
Context: The invention of mobile phones makes the human life easier. The purpose of this study is to identify security risks in mobile banking and to provide an authentication method for mobile banking transaction by using bio-metric mechanism. Objectives: Current mobile banking authentication is challenging and identified as a major security risk. Literature review shows that customer distrusts mobile banking due to security issues. The authors discuss security risks in current authentication methods in mobile banking. Methods: There are different methods and approaches to handle authentication in mobile banking. In this thesis, we propose a new approach of authentication in mobile banking. The strengths and weaknesses of existing approaches of authentication are identified with the help of Literature Review and interviews. The authors present basic transaction model and include security risks. By Literature Review it is found that finger print mechanism is a suitable method for authentication. Authors focus on authentication method and present a biometric scanning device which can identify the customer’s finger print thus enabling the customer to access mobile banking facility. Results: An authentication model is proposed through design process. The proposed biometric design was validated by conducting a workshop. The analysis of the workshop’s results showed that customer’s trust in security for mobile banking will be increased by finger print mechanism. To promote mobile banking, it is necessary to improve customer trust in terms of security. Conclusions: The authors concluded that, only authorized person will be able to use mobile banking services by incorporating bio-metric finger-print mechanism. By literature review and interview it was found that finger-print mechanism is more suitable than other ordinary mechanisms like login and password mechanism, SMS etc. / Using mobile phones for mobile banking, customers can push or pull the details like Funds transfer, Bill payment, Share trade, Check order and also inquiries like Account balance, Account statement and Check status Transaction history etc. It means that the customer is interacting with the files, databases etc., of the bank . Database at the server end is sensitive in terms of security. Customers distrust mobile devices to transfer money or for making any transactions. The reason is that security is a major concern for the customer’s fulfillment. Customer’s main concern in using mobile devices for mobile banking is the authentication method used to ensure that the right person is accessing the services like transaction etc.The authors made a basic model for mobile banking transaction. All security risks were included in the transaction model. Then the authors focused on authentication method. By literature review and interview it was concluded that security can be improved by bio metric methods. The authors focused on different bio-metric mechanism and concluded that fingerprint mechanism is more suitable as it requires less storage capacity in database and identifies the uniqueness of customers. The authors suggest a possible solution by proposing finger-print mechanism model and designed a bio-metric scanning device as a solution through which customer can interact with banking system using their finger-print. The result of workshop shows that bio-metric finger print mechanism is more suitable and secure then other authentication methods for mobile banking. / 004531847791

Anti-Popery in early modern England : religion, war and print, c. 1617-1635

Turnbull, Emma C. January 2016 (has links)
This thesis is about anti-popery in early modern England, how its meanings and political uses in printed literature changed in response to the dramatic developments of the Thirty Years' War. I contend that the languages of anti-popery, though structured by binary oppositions, were being used to express complex, multifaceted views about Catholic states in the 1620s and 1630s. The new perspective that this research offers is two-fold. Firstly, it asserts that anti-popery was an active and flexible tool of English Protestant debate about foreign affairs. 'Popish' tyranny, variously embodied in the Counter-Reformation papacy or Habsburg imperialism, was a malleable concept that adapted its meanings and associations with the political circumstances. Our early modern subjects were capable of separating anti-Catholic beliefs about idolatrous worship from political questions of how to identify, and combat, the threat of papal tyranny. Thus, this thesis argues that a greater range of irenic attitudes towards relations with Catholic powers were circulating than previously thought. Secondly, this thesis argues that several different anti-papal languages were operating alongside, and in competition with, one another in early Stuart political culture. As a fluid set of tropes, associations and prejudices, anti-popery had different meanings for different authors and incorporated a range of political and religious agendas. Anti-popery, therefore, was not simply a tool of Puritan opposition to the non-interventionist policy of the Stuarts, but, I argue, was also compatible with a more moderate or conciliatory attitude to Catholic states, including Habsburg Spain. The printed debates of the 1620s and 1630s expose the tensions that existed between competing ideas about the nature of the external popish threat. By 1635 and the reversal of Protestant fortunes on the Continent, these competing anti-papal ideas were exposing the tensions within England about the nature of its Protestantism, and thus helped precipitate the Civil Wars.

L'estampe et ses transferts : gravures françaises et copies allemandes (1650-1750) / Prints and transfers : French engraving and German copies (1650-1750)

Herbert, Flora 15 June 2017 (has links)
Cette thèse de doctorat propose une réflexion sur les phénomènes de copies en matière d’estampe à travers la production d’éditeurs-graveurs allemands de la seconde moitié du XVIIe siècle et de la première moitié du siècle suivant. Parmi les principaux acteurs du monde de la gravure en Allemagne après la fin de la guerre de Trente ans, certains, à commencer par la famille des Küsel à Augsbourg, se sont largement investis dans la réalisation et l’édition de copies gravées. Parmi les modèles utilisés par ces graveurs, l’estampe française du XVIIe siècle tient une place centrale. Remises dans leur contexte historique, technique et artistique, ces copies permettent d’aborder un rapport à la reproduction et diffusion des images différent d’aujourd’hui. Trois niveaux de transferts sont dans ce cadre interrogés. Le premier se réfère à la pratique même du copiste, qui transfère son modèle sur une plaque à graver. Le deuxième niveau de transfert concerne plus spécifiquement les translations qui s’opèrent d’un pays à un autre. Enfin, le troisième interroge la manière dont le désir de s’approprier l’original se reporte sur la copie. Il s’agit ainsi de replacer ces phénomènes de copies dans leurs contextes de production respectifs mais aussi d’étudier ce qu’implique cette pratique, tout en tenant compte pour cela du rôle joué par son public. / This doctoral thesis presents a study of the phenomenon of print copying, study based on the production of German publishers and engravers in the second half of the seventeenth century and the first half of the following century. Some of the main producers of engravings in Germany after the end of the Thirty Years War, starting with the Küsel family in Augsburg, were very much involved in creating and publishing engraved copies. The French seventeenth century printing was a central element in the models used by these engravers. When these copies are placed in their historical, technical and artistic background, they enable us to address a different way of looking at the copying and publishing of pictures, compared withtoday. We shall, therefore, analyze three levels of transfers. The first one relates to the actual technique of the copyist who transfers the model onto an engraving plate. The second one focuses more specifically on the exchanges generated from one country to another. Finally, the third one raises the issue of how the desire to appropriate the original is transferred onto the copy. We shall thus place these phenomena of print copies in their respective backgrounds but also analyze what is implied by this practice, taking into account the role played by its audience.

Médiokracie - politická komunikace v době masových médií / The development of the media image of Andrej Babiš

Minářů, Tereza January 2017 (has links)
The diploma thesis deals with the development of the media image of Czech politician and businessman Andrej Babiš since he was appointed as the Finance Minister. The aim of the thesis is to find out how the media image is changing during the term of office and which topics are primarily associated with him. The necessary data was obtained from the media database Anopress, through which the relevant articles of two national newspapers (Mladá Fronta DNES and Právo) were chosen. Another purpose of the work is to assess if the media image is influenced by the fact that Mladá Fronta DNES is owned by Andrej Babiš.
