We start from the study of denial within analysis, through which a repressed content can have access to consciousness. This mechanism stems the intellectual functioning of the self, which judges whether an idea can be accepted or not. This judging activity impels Freud to search for the origins of the function of judgement, preconditions to make the psychic constitution possible and, therefore, constituting structural conditions. In the origin of the judging process, we find denial associated with the most primitive organization of the self, which seeks to get differentiated from the exterior world for the first time, expelling unpleasant contents and introjecting pleasurable ones. After this first operation, the judgement of existence comes into play, oriented by the attempt of recovering traces of former objects of satisfaction. With the contribution of Lacan, the division postulated by Freud in the first judgement becomes an intersection between the real and the symbolic. Successive denials affect the symbolic text, as attempts of maintaining certain signifiers as distant as possible. The concepts of Verdrängung (repression) e Verwerfung (rejection/ foreclosure) were discussed as means of denial that occur between perception and consciousness. Heterogeneous to the signifying set, however produced by it, the object petit a emerges as a residue forever irrecoverable, whose manifestation is a reference to what was expelled by the first judgement. What was expelled by the primordial denial does not find ways of returning through denegation, where the unconscious formations predominate. Its manifestation refers to the return of what is invariant in the structuration of the speaker, under shapes whose main characteristic is to be heterogeneous to the symbolic formations. / Este estudo trata de uma pesquisa bibliográfica conceitual, com o objetivo de investigar o conceito de negação, nas obras de Sigmund Freud e Jacques Lacan, e sua articulação com as estruturas clínicas neurose e psicose. Partimos do estudo da negação em análise, meio pelo qual um conteúdo recalcado pode ter acesso à consciência. Esse mecanismo decorre da função intelectual do Eu, que julga se uma ideia pode ser ou não aceita. Essa atividade judicativa impele Freud a buscar as origens da função do juízo, precondições para que seja possível a constituição psíquica e, portanto, constitui-se como condições estruturais. Na origem do processo de julgamento encontramos a negação associada à organização mais primitiva do Eu, que procura se diferenciar pela primeira vez do mundo exterior, expulsando os conteúdos desagradáveis e introjetando os prazerosos. Após essa primeira operação entra em cena o juízo de existência, orientado pela tentativa de reencontrar traços dos antigos objetos de satisfação. Com o aporte de Lacan, a divisão postulada por Freud no primeiro julgamento, torna-se, uma interseção do real e do simbólico. Sobre o texto simbólico incidem sucessivas negações, como tentativa de manter determinados significantes o mais distante possível. Os conceitos de Verdrängung (recalque) e Verwerfung (rejeição/ foraclusão) foram discutidos como modos de negação que ocorrem entre percepção e consciência. Heterogêneo ao conjunto significante, porém, produzido por ele, o objeto a surge como um resto para sempre irrecuperável, cuja manifestação faz referência ao que foi expulso pelo primeiro julgamento. O que foi expulso pela negação primordial não encontra meios de retorno pela via da denegação, em que vigoram as formações do inconsciente. Sua manifestação diz respeito ao retorno do que há de invariante na estruturação do falante, sob formas cuja característica principal é serem heterogêneas às formações simbólicas.

A presente dissertação aborda a problemática questão da responsabilidade do Estado por omissões judiciais em seus diversos aspectos. Apresenta um panorama geral do papel e da função do instituto da responsabilidade extracontratual do Estado concebido dentro de um sistema amplo de controle e responsabilidade em sentido amplo do Poder Judiciário e da magistratura, sobretudo no sistema brasileiro. Examina a tipologia dos atos oriundos do Poder Judiciário para fins da incidência da responsabilidade estatal. Analisa a responsabilidade do Estado em face dos atos jurisdicionais e não jurisdicionais do Poder Judiciário. Estuda separadamente cada requisito da responsabilidade do Estado por omissão. Traça as peculiaridades de cada um desses requisitos considerando as peculiaridades da atividade judiciária. Propõe e delimita, com enfoque (mas não exclusivamente) no processo cível, oito espécies de omissões judiciais passíveis de gerar a responsabilidade do Estado. Enfrenta, dentre essas espécies, a questão da denegação de justiça e morosidade judicial. Trata da responsabilidade pessoal do magistrado e demais servidores. Discorre sobre a relação dessa responsabilidade com a do Estado. E, por fim, expõe algumas questões processuais relacionadas a tais ações. / This dissertation addresses the highly problematic issue regarding liability of the State on court omissions in its various aspects. It provides an overview of the role and function of the liability of the State in torts considering the Brazilian broad control system of judicial acts. This work deals with specific types of acts related to liability of the State in the Judiciary, by analyzing the liability on judicial and non-judicial acts. It also studies each aspect of the liability of the State on court omissions considering the peculiarities of the judicial activity. Another point is the effort to clearly define eight species of court omissions focusing (but not exclusively) in Civil Procedure Law and the attempt to deal with issues related to justice denial and judicial delay. It studies judge and judicial employees accountability and the discussion related to this judicial accountability and the State. Finally, it presents some procedural issues related to such actions.

Esta pesquisa qualitativa tem como base estudos de casos de adolescentes com dificuldades escolares, analisados dentro do contexto da psicopedagogia clínica. Trata-se de jovens de famílias de nível socioeconômico médio, freqüentadores de escolas particulares e que, apesar da formação familiar, apresentam dificuldades de aprendizagem. A princípio, a problemática dos adolescentes parece corresponder à falta de autonomia no processo de aprendizagem escolar. No entanto, um exame mais atento revela a ambivalência dos jovens em face da ordem escolar. O aprofundamento na dinâmica familiar desses jovens indica certa conivência dos pais diante dessa ambivalência. Portanto, são casos que remetem à complementaridade entre certas configurações familiares e os problemas na escolaridade dos adolescentes, em virtude do enfraquecimento das barreiras geracionais e normativas entre pais e filhos. Nesse sentido, o objetivo da pesquisa consiste em investigar a recusa escolar entre os adolescentes e verificar a influência da negação da diferença geracional dos adultos nessa problemática. Para tanto, analisam-se primeiramente, os pressupostos históricos e teóricos da psicopedagogia, e, mais detidamente, os da psicopedagogia clínica proposta por Sara Paín. Utilizando a metodologia de investigação científica dos estudos de casos, realiza-se uma descrição detalhada dos casos, explicitando suas variáveis. Os estudos de casos evidenciam um conflito subjacente: o anseio do jovem de conquistar a autonomia, em contraposição às tendências que mantêm as relações de dependência com os pais. Recorre-se à psicanálise para aprofundar certos aspectos desse conflito, com base no trabalho de Jeammet e Corcos. Segundo esses autores, a adolescência demandaria ao jovem a articulação entre o mundo interno e o mundo externo, isto é, um trabalho psíquico de consolidação das bases narcísicas e das relações objetais, no sentido de o sujeito concluir seu processo de identificação, para assim se dirigir ao mundo adulto. Esse trabalho se realizaria por meio da dependência (transitória) em relação aos pais. No caso dos jovens analisados, há uma reação negativa à dependência mediante a recusa de intercâmbio com os pais e com os objetos de interesses, dentre eles, a escola. Constata-se que nesses casos se apresentam situações que revelam uma pseudomutualidade nas relações entre pais e filhos e a decorrente fragilização de limites em benefício do aumento das exigências narcísicas. Procurando compreender esses casos dentro do contexto da denominada pós-modernidade e seus efeitos sobre as relações intergeracionais, investiga-se ainda o amplo processo de mudanças sociais da segunda metade do século XX, derivando no que Lipovestky chama de cultura narcísica. Dentre os elementos da cultura narcísica que afetam as relações intergeracionais, constam a idealização social da juventude, a erosão das identidades e a dissolução das normas educativas. Nas famílias estudadas, verificou-se ainda a atualização, em termos pós-modernos, de traços culturais atribuídos à família brasileira por pensadores como Sérgio Buarque de Holanda. O fenômeno da modernização reativa, da superposição de valores tradicionais e modernos levou, como se constata nesses estudos de casos, à diluição de diferenças de gerações. Nesse sentido, a recusa escolar dos jovens pode consistir em uma atuação da recusa do luto da juventude por parte dos pais. / This qualitative research is based on case studies about adolescents with academic difficulties, analyzed within the context of clinical educational psychology. Belonging to families in the middle social economic level, these youth attend private schools and show learning difficulties despite their family background. At first, this issue among adolescents seems to correspond to their lack of independence in school. However, a more careful examination reveals the youths ambivalence in regard to the school structure. The in-depth study of these youths family dynamics somehow indicates the parents complicity with this ambivalence. Thus, they are cases that may be traced back to a link between certain familial configurations and low academic achievement. This complimentarity of social spheres is due to weakened generational and normative barriers between parents and children. In this sense, this study aims at investigating the adolescents rejection of their own education and verifying the negation of the adults generational difference as an influence in this problem. To that end, we begin by analyzing the historical and theoretical presuppositions of educational psychology, and more specifically, those of clinic educational psychology as proposed by Sara Paín. Using the methodology of scientific investigation for study cases, we carry out a detailed description of cases by making their variables explicit. The case studies demonstrate an underlying conflict: the youths eagerness to attain independence in contrast with trends that suggest a lasting relationship of dependence on parents. We refer to psychoanalysis to deepen certain aspects of this conflict with the work of Jeammet and Corcos as our basis. According to these authors, adolescence is the stage in which the individual psychically consolidates the narcissistic bases and object relations, thus concluding his/her process of maturation as an adult which would happen by means of the (transitory) dependence on the parents. In the analyzed cases, there is a negative reaction to dependence upon the denial of exchange with parents and objects of interest, one of which is school. It is evident that these cases point out situations of both pseudomutuality in relations between children and parents and the ensuing fragilization of the limits upon the increase of narcissistic demands. In an attempt to understand these cases within the so-called post-modern context and its effects on intergenerational relations, this study investigates the wide process of social changes that occurred in the second half of the twentieth century, locating what Lipovestky calls narcissist culture. Among the elements of narcissist culture affecting intergenerational relations, are the social idealization of youth, the erosion of identities and the dissolution of educational norms. The families focused on still reveal the predominance of the cultural traces attributed to the Brazilian family by thinkers such as Sergio Buarque de Holanda. As affirmed by these case studies, the phenomenon of a new modernity, along with the superposition of traditional and modern values, led to the dilution of generational differences. Thus, the adolescents rejection of formal education may consist in the parents own act of denying the mourning of their youth.

The IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) is an open IP based service infrastructure that enables an easy deployment of new rich multimedia services mixing voice and data. The IMS is an overlay network on top of IP that uses SIP as the primary signaling mechanism. As an emerging technology, the SIP standard will certainly be the target of Denial of Service (DoS) attacks and consequently IMS will also inherit this problem. The objective of proposed architecture for IMS is to cram the potential attacks and security threats to IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) and explore the security solutions developed by 3GPP. This research work incorporates the ideas of immune system and multiagent architecture that is capable of detecting, identifying and recovering from an attack. The proposed architecture protects IMS core components i.e. P-CSCF (Proxy- Call Session Control Function), I-CSCF (Interrogating-Call Session Control Function), S-CSCF (Serving Call Session Control Function) and HSS (Home Subscriber Server) from external and internal threats like eavesdropping, SQL injection and denial-ofservice (DoS) attacks. In the first level i.e. CPU under normal load all incoming and out going messages were investigated to detect and prevent SQL injection. Second level considers Denial of Service (DOS) attacks when CPU load exceeds threshold limit. Proposed architecture is designed and evaluated by using an approach called Architecture Tradeoff Analysis Method (ATAM). The results obtained confirm consistency of the architecture. / kalyani-0046737527800

A DDoS attack is an attempt to bring down a machine connected to the Internet. This is done by having multiple computers repeatedly sending requests to tie up a server making it unable to answer legitimate requests. DDoS attacks are currently one of the biggest security threats on the internet according to security experts. We used a qualitative interview with experts in IT security to gather data to our research. We found that most companies are lacking both in knowledge and in their protection against DDoS attacks. The best way to minimize this threat would be to build a system with redundancy, do a risk analysis and revise security policies. Most of the technologies reviewed were found ineffective because of the massive amount of data amplification attacks can generate. Ingress filtering showed promising results in preventing DDoS attacks by blocking packages with spoofed IP addresses thus preventing amplification attacks.

Traditional public switched telephone networks (PSTN) are replaced more and more by VoIP services these days.  Although it is good for saving costs, the disadvantage of this development is that VoIP networks are less secure than the traditional  way of transmitting voice. Because VoIP networks are being deployed in open environments and rely on other network  services, the VoIP service itself becomes vulnerable to potential attacks against its infrastructure or other services  it relies on. This thesis will present a discussion of security issues of the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP), the signalling protocol for  VoIP services. The main focus is on active attacks against the protocol that aim to reduce the service's availability -- so called  Denial of Service (DoS) attacks. Existing countermeasures and detection schemes do not adequately differentiate between DoS attacks. However, the differentiation  is important with respect to performance loss, as various protection schemes involve more computationally intensive processes. Based on that discussion, this thesis attempts to provide an ontological approach to describing, and eventually preventing attacks from  having their intended effects.

M.A. (Clinical Social Work) / Chemical dependence has a negative impact on a family’s ability to maintain a healthy level of functioning and stability. The ecological system’s framework emphasises the significance of a system’s ability to manage and cope with the negative impacts of chemical dependence. Family systems in the face of chemical dependency, engage in various coping strategies in order to manage the impact of stress caused. One way in which the system is able to manage this stress is through the phenomenon of denial. Denial from an ecological system’s perspective is considered a defense mechanism, which is utilised in order to defend from the painful and disturbing realities. The use of denial on a continuous level however, is considered maladaptive and as a result, the family system is no longer able to maintain an optimal level of functioning. Denial within chemical dependence treatment is a common obstacle that professionals are faced with. The motivation for this research was based on the inconsistency of the understanding of denial within chemical dependence treatment. Therefore, the research aimed to create a descriptive framework of the phenomenon of denial with chemical dependence to better understand the phenomenon, so as to better manage the obstacles such phenomenon presents within treatment settings. The assumption was that denial is the result of a transactional dynamic across system levels, specifically within the micro system between the individual and family members. The researcher engaged in an in-depth literature review encompassing the topics of denial, the ecological system’s perspective, and chemical dependence, in order to acquire all the relevant knowledge for the study. The method of research was qualitative in nature in order to explore the phenomenon of denial as understood from the stories of individuals recovering from chemical dependence and a respective family member. The researcher conducted interviews with six pairs of participants, one recovering participant and one respective family member. The analysis of the research findings was guided by a thorough step-by step analytical process. The interviews were transcribed, common themes were identified, coded and then further categorised. The researcher then identified the categories of denial behaviours, underlying needs and the break in denial. As a result of the findings, the researcher developed a model called the Progression of denial. This model depicted the four levels of denial in which the various denial behaviours and underlying needs are presented within each system level. First order denial developed on an individual level. This level of denial and the behaviours presented were applicable to the individual engaging in chemical dependency. The second order denial was assigned within the micro system, the immediate family of the chemically-dependent individual. This order of denial was characterised by transactional dynamics between the individual and family members, both exhibiting denial behaviours in order to satisfy their individual needs as well as the system’s attempt to maintain functioning and not confront the realities of the extent of the impact of the chemical dependence. The third order denial was assigned to the meso-system and was understood as the immediate community of the family system. The family system, in response to the chemical dependency, engaged in denial behaviours in fear of the chemical dependence being exposed and no longer kept a secret. Fourth order denial was then the break in denial, in which the individuals no longer denied that they had a problem and as a result the need for denial behaviours was no longer needed. The chemical dependence was confronted and participants reported a period of six months in which their lives were chaotic before they went for treatment. The value of this research is to assist professionals in managing the evident denial that is so commonly associated with chemical dependency; for professionals to gain the criteria required to assess the level of denial at which an individual is struggling with chemical dependence; and whether intervention is needed in more than one system level. In addition the research aims to assist professionals in being able to identify the various denial behaviours that are most prevalent within each system level. Intervention can then possibly be directed at the most appropriate system level in which the professionals are able to assist with identifying the systems maladaptive methods of coping and subsequently direct the systems development towards more constructive adaptive methods. . The research was conducted within a small sample population and was therefore a specific representation of the six pairs of participants who took part in the research. Ongoing research needs to be conducted to further establish the findings.

Magister Artium - MA / In South Africa there is still a substantial amount of prejudice towards people living with Aids (PLA). Initially, Aids was seen as a 'gay' disease, then a 'black' disease. People thus tended to avoid high-risk groups rather than high-risk behaviour, and denied their own vulnerability by displacing the disease to an 'other' who did not belong to 'their' group. This study focuses on factors that influence and motivate adolescents' behavior towards HIV/AIDS at Beauvallon High School in Valhalla Park; an impoverished, peri-urban and previously coloured only community. / South Africa

The classic theories about naval warfare is something that still influence warfare and naval theories today. In a world that changes so does the warfare, which shows a more asymmetrical character than before. Power asymmetry between actors is something to take into account today, but the history revealse unexpectadly that the weaker actor often stands as the winner. Is the theories of naval warfare that is influenced by a era of decisive battle still valid? Not only has the power asymmetry changed in time but so has the actors, not seldom the weaker actor is of a irregular character in todays naval warfare.The question here is if a theory influenced by theories created for regular conventional forces can explain the war- fare an asymmetric irregular actor carries? The issue this study address is Geoffrey Till ́s theory about Sea Denial and how that can explain the Sea tiger’s warfare against the Sri Lankan navy in the civil war of Sri Lanka. The result of the study shows that Tills theory can explain an irregular asymmetrical con- flict and also confirms that for a weak actor this could be warfare of success.

Understood sociologically, denial is best conceptualized as a social practice. As a phenomenon, social denial refers to patterned behaviour where actors both know and do not-know about uncomfortable truths (Cohen, 2001). Put simply, social denial is a socially reproduced blindness in the face of traumatic events and processes. In opposition to social denial is a different social practice, bearing witness. Bearing witness is engaged when society’s actors give voice to those who would otherwise be silent. Drawing on theoretical frameworks from Stanley Cohen’s work States of Denial and Fujiko Kurasawa’s work Global Justice, this thesis aims to critically reflect and explore the registers and mechanisms of both social denial and bearing witness. The exploration of social denial is sociologically relevant, and generally important, as a means for understanding the role it plays in society, and to further understanding what social denial is and how it works. The better actors understand an issue the more capable they are of addressing it. This thesis conducts a media frame analysis of selected published articles from the National Post and the Globe and Mail that speak to the issue of MMIWG. This analysis reveals social denial through the frames “culpable victim”, “poster child”, and “the extra”; and bearing witness through the frame of the “honourable victim”. The analysis and research of this thesis reveal how social denial covers up the relevance of colonialism with respect to MMIWG. Furthermore, it suggests that social denial acts to both camouflage the gritty details underlying MMIWG and erase the identities of MMIWG.
