Verhoudings tussen boere en plaaswerkers in post-apartheid Suid-Afrika : die wisselwerking tussen formalisering en paternalismeLoxton, Christine 04 1900 (has links)
Thesis (MA)--Stellenbosch University, 2015. / ENGLISH ABSTRACT: An outcome of this thesis, done on farms in South-Africa in the Swartland area, is that
the labour structure in agriculture is still predominantly paternalistic and that
paternalism and empowerment coexist. This co-existence causes tension between
farmers and farm workers as it disrupts the relationship where farmers traditionally
had the authority and farm workers were subordinate, but in the modern farm setting
have a measure of independence. A qualitative approach was used to investigate how
farmers and farm workers perceived their relationship in the past and how they
experience it presently. Individual interviews were held with each farmer and focus
group discussions with workers on farms. The study discusses how farmers and farm
workers maintain paternalism on farms, in the context of the reduced support of the
state to white commercial farmers as well as the expansion and formalisation of
labour and tenure legislation of workers' rights.
The state acted as ‘patron’ to the farmers in the apartheid era, but the state’s patronage
to farmers came to an end with the political transition. Farmers feel frustrated and
miss the support they enjoyed previously. Legislation which challenges the power and
authority of farmers has been extended to farms and provides a framework for the
relationship between farmers and farm workers and establishes a context in which this
relationship occurs. This has brought about that the power and authority of the
“paternalistic” farmers have been exposed and challenged. These changes in farmers’
and farmworkers’ relationship with the state create uncertainties, changes and
adjustments in the relationship between farmers and farm workers on farms.
Farmers still take control of farms, regardless of any legislation. The farm workers
also still tend to define their position as depending on the farmer’s goodwill in
conjunction with formal legislation. However, although the workers are still
dependent on the farmer, they are also aware of their rights in the new democratic era
and they claim these rights. The “old paternalistic relationship” together with the
propagation of new legislation causes tensions as well as disruptions in the
relationship between famers and farm workers. But, forged in unequal relationships of
dependency and loyalty, farmers and farm workers keep commercial agriculture
going.
The information collected is intended to shed light on the complex relationships
between farmers and farm workers on farms. Hopefully this research on several farms
in the Western Cape, in the Swartland environment, can contribute to a better
understanding of the complex relationship between farmers and farm workers. / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Hierdie studie, wat gedoen is op plase in Suid-Afrika in die Swartland-omgewing,
toon dat die arbeidsopset in die landbou oorwegend paternalisties is en dat
paternalisme en bemagtiging op plase saam bestaan. Hierdie saambestaan veroorsaak
spanning tussen die boere en plaaswerkers en lei tot ontwrigting in die verhouding
waar boere tradisioneel die outoriteit gehad het en die plaaswerkers ondergeskik was,
maar nou in die moderne plaasopset onafhanklik is. ’n Kwalitatiewe benadering is
gebruik om ondersoek in te stel na hoe boere en plaaswerkers die verhoudings met
mekaar in die verlede ervaar het en ook hoe hulle dit tans in die moderne plaasopset
ervaar. Daar is individuele onderhoude met die boere gevoer en fokusgroepe met die
plaaswerkers in hulle eie natuurlike omgewings gedoen. Die studie beredeneer hoe
beide boere en plaaswerkers paternalisme op plase in stand hou, ongeag die
verminderde ondersteuning van die staat aan wit kommersiële boere, asook die
uitbreiding en formalisering van arbeids- en verblyfregwetgewing om plaaswerkers se
regte te beskerm.
Die staat het in die apartheidsjare as “beskermheer” teenoor die boere opgetree, maar
daardie begunstiging van die staat aan die boere het met die politieke oorgang verval.
Boere voel gefrustreerd en mis die ondersteuning wat hulle vroeër ontvang het.
Wetgewing wat na plase uitgebrei is, verskaf nou sekere raamwerke waarbinne boere
en werkers moet optree en stel ook sekere eise wat die konteks bepaal. Dit het
veroorsaak dat die mag en outoriteit van die “paternalistiese boere” tot ’n mate
blootgelê en uitgedaag word. Dit veroorsaak verskeie onsekerhede, veranderinge en
aanpassings in die verhouding tussen boere en plaaswerkers op plase.
Boere neem nog altyd die beheer op plase ongeag wetgewing wat hulle beperk. Die
werkers is ook steeds geneig om hulle posisie te definieer as afhanklik van die boer se
welwillendheid, naas die formele wetgewing. Maar, alhoewel die plaaswerkers nog
altyd afhanklik van die boer is, is hulle tog as gevolg van wetgewing bewus van hulle
regte en maak hulle ook aanspraak daarop. Die “ou paternalistiese verhouding” en die
uitbreiding van formele wette wat boere beperk, veroorsaak dat spanning en
ontwrigting in die verhoudings tussen boere en plaaswerkers ontstaan. Maar, gesmee
in ongelyke verhoudings van afhanklikheid en lojaliteit hou boere en plaaswerkers die
kommersiële landbou aan die gang.
Die inligting wat versamel is beoog om lig te werp op die komplekse verhoudings
tussen boere en plaaswerkers op plase. Hopelik sal hierdie navorsing op enkele plase
in die Wes-Kaap, in die Swartland-omgewing, kan bydra tot ʼn beter begrip van die
komplekse verhouding tussen boere en plaaswerkers.

A fábrica em que o Lula nunca entrou: um mundo meio isolado no coração do novo sindicalismo / The factory that Lula never came in: the world half-isolated in the heart of the new unionismSantos, Diego Tavares dos 14 October 2014 (has links)
A narrativa sociológica que tentei construir sobre a Termomecanica (TM) partiu de uma retomada dos vários tons que compuseram a experiência de classe dos peões do ABC e a identidade operária combativa que daí resultou. Em seguida, me enveredei na desmontagem da teia simbólica do discurso paternalista que o patrão (Salvador Arena) articulou com vistas a bloquear o desenvolvimento de uma consciência de classe rebelde nos operários de sua fábrica, formatando-lhes, ao contrário, uma identidade resignada, leal ao patrão e à empresa. Após, procurei destacar como, apesar das estratégias de esterilização sindical empreendidas por Salvador Arena, o conflito fabril sempre foi latente. Neste ponto, a ideia foi dar voz àqueles que são cotidianamente obrigados a se calar, conferindo destaque à operários desconhecidos cujas vidas foram indelevelmente marcadas pela TM e por Salvador Arena. Por fim, tentei recuperar as tradições sociais que, num quadro socioeconômico e histórico específico, desembocaram no processo produtivo da Termomecanica e engendraram por meio da referida dominação simbólica paternalista o notável envolvimento do grupo operário, isto é, criaram o fator decisivo que permitiu à TM se colocar de forma singular diante dos concorrentes, dos demais empresários industriais e do Estado. / The sociological narrative about the Termomecanica factory (TM) that I tried to build were started with a reflection about the various aspects of the working class experience in the ABC and about the combative identity that was resulted of this experience. Afterwards, I aimed dismantling the web of symbolic ties which constitutes the patronizing speech of its founder (Salvador Arena), developed in order to hinder the establishment of a rebellious working class consciousness among his factorys workers, being able to create a subdued workers identity, loyal to their boss and company. Later, I tried to highlight the fact that the labor conflict has always been latent, in spite of Salvador Arenas strategies to make the trade unions impotent. At that point, my intention was to acknowledge the ones forcefully silenced, especially the anonymous workers who had TM and Salvador Arena printed in their lives. Finally, I tried to recover the social traditions that in a specific historical and socio-economic panorama culminate in Termomecanicas production process and engender through the patronizing symbolic domination mentioned above the remarkable workers\' engagement, creating a decisive factor to make the Salvador Arena\'s factory a case unique faced with the competitors, the others enterprises and the State.

Les débats parlementaires pour légaliser le cannabis au Canada: entre moralisme et libéralisme juridiqueGarant, Etienne 22 May 2019 (has links)
RÉSUMÉ
Reprenant les trois argumentaires des rapports divergents de la commission le Dain de 1972, soit le moralisme juridique pour le maintien de la prohibition du cannabis, le paternalisme juridique pour la décriminalisation de sa possession simple et le libéralisme juridique pour sa légalisation, cette thèse mobilise ce triptyque inspiré par trois philosophes juridiques à l’aide de l’analyse de contenu afin de voir comment ces arguments se sont manifestés à nouveau dans le processus parlementaire d’adoption du projet de loi C-45 ayant mené à la légalisation du cannabis au Canada. De plus, elle mobilise aussi le concept de la rationalité pénale moderne dans le but de comprendre l’approbation chez les différents acteurs d’avoir recours au pénal dans ce projet de loi en acceptant l’inclusion de deux nouvelles infractions criminelles passibles de 14 ans d’emprisonnement. Ces infractions visent un adulte qui ferait participer un mineur au marché illégal de cannabis, ou encore vendrait ou donnerait du cannabis à un mineur. La clarification de ce paradoxe était importante considérant que ce projet de loi fut essentiellement justifié par ceux qui y étaient favorables sur la volonté de diminuer un recours au droit criminel identifié comme inefficace à la réduction de la consommation du cannabis, tout en créant de nouvelles infractions pénales pour éviter son accès aux mineurs. Les résultats de cette thèse ont démontré que si des philosophies de type moraliste et paternaliste demeurent bien présentes lors des débats parlementaires sur C-45, le libéralisme juridique l’est aussi, mais tend fortement à disparaitre dès qu’arrive la question de la santé et de la sécurité des mineurs. De plus, si la durée des nouvelles peines demeure contestée par certains, il semble qu’en aucun temps le recours au pénal en guise d’outil de gestion de ces infractions ne soit remis en question, ce qui s’est traduit entre autres par l’absence totale de débats en ce qui a trait à l’utilisation d’un mineur dans le marché illégal de cannabis. Ce dernier point pourrait s’expliquer par une volonté de réforme par contraste qui vise une meilleure efficacité du système en place plutôt qu’une réforme générative qui cherche l’innovation et le renouveau, ce qui aurait demandé la remise en question du paradigme dominant sur certaines drogues actuellement illégales, soit la prohibition.
ABSTRACT
By taking up the three arguments of the divergent reports of the Le Dain Commission of 1972, the legal moralism in favor of the maintenance of the prohibition of cannabis, the legal paternalism for the decriminalization of tis simple possession and the legal liberalism in favor of legalization, this thesis mobilize this triptych inspired by three legal philosophers by using content analysis in parliamentary debates to see how these arguments manifested themselves again in the process of passing Bill C-45 which led to the legalization of cannabis in Canada. Furthermore, it also mobilizes the concept of modern criminal rationality in order to understand the approval for the various actors to use the criminal law in this bill by accepting the inclusion of two new criminal offenses punishable by 14 years of imprisonment. These offenses target an adult who would involve a minor in the illegal cannabis market, or sell or give cannabis to a minor. The clarification of this paradox was important considering that this bill was essentially justified by those who were in favor of reducing the use of criminal law identified as ineffective in reducing the use of cannabis, while creating new offenses to prevent its access from minors. The results of this thesis have shown that while moralistic and paternalistic philosophies remain very much present during parliamentary debates on Bill C-45, legal liberalism is also present, but tends to disappear as soon as the question of health and safety of minors come up. Moreover, while the duration of the new sentences is still disputed by some, it appears that at no time is the use of the criminal law as a tool for managing these offenses is questioned, which has resulted in the total lack of debate regarding the use of a minor in the illegal cannabis market. This last point could be explained by a desire for the adoption of a reform by contrast which aims to improve the effectiveness of the system in place rather than a generative reform that seeks innovation and renewal, which would have asked a questioning of the dominant paradigm on some currently illegal drugs, the prohibition in itself.

Ensino de história, cotidiano e literatura : escravidão e paternalismo em contos de Machado de AssisCarvalho, Raul Costa de January 2016 (has links)
O objetivo deste trabalho é introduzir para os professores e professoras de História algumas das principais discussões em diferentes áreas do conhecimento sobre a vida cotidiana, apresentando esta como uma perspectiva possível e importante para ser utilizada na abordagem de diferentes conteúdos em sala de aula. Para isso, a partir da retomada de algumas reflexões sobre a relação entre História e Literatura, propomos quatro contos de Machado de Assis como recursos para o ensino de dois temas: a escravidão e o paternalismo no período conhecido como Segundo Reinado (1840-1889). Os contos selecionados foram: Virginius: história de um advogado (1864); Mariana (1871); Uns braços (1896) e Pai contra Mãe (1906). O resultado desta proposta pedagógica foi a produção de um material didático, denominado Caderno do Professor, voltado para professores de História do 8º ano do Ensino Fundamental. Neste material, apresentam-se interpretações possíveis dos contos, de acordo com o objetivo de aprendizagem proposto, bem como algumas sugestões de atividades para serem desenvolvidas em sala de aula. As atividades sobre o conto Pai contra Mãe foram aplicadas, e seus resultados analisados ao final desta pesquisa, permitindo algumas reflexões sobre a trajetória percorrida por educadores entre a elaboração dos objetos de aprendizagem até o conhecimento construído com os alunos. / The objective of this work is introduce to history teachers some of the main discussions in differente areas of knowledge about everyday life, presenting this as a possible and important perspective to be used in different content approach in classroom. For this, we present some reflections about the relationship between History and Literature and propose four Machado de Assis’ stories as resources for the teaching of two themes: slavery and paternalism in the period of the brazilian history known as Segundo Reinado (1840-1889). The stories selected were: Virginius: história de um advogado (1864); Mariana (1871); Uns braços (1896) and Pai contra Mãe (1906). The result of this pedagogical proposal was the production of a didactic material, called Caderno do Professor, to be used by History teacher’s from 8th grade of elementary school. In this material, we present possible interpretations of the stories, according to the objective of the proposed learning, also some suggestions for activities to be developed in the classroom. The activities of the Pai contra Mãe storie were applied, and the results analyzed at the end of this research, allowing some reflections about the trajectory coursed by educators between the development of learnig objects until the knowledge constructed with the students.

The economics of altruism, paternalism and self-controlBreman, Anna January 2006 (has links)
Paper 1: Give More Tomorrow Many charities ask donors to commit to monthly contribution schemes. Monthly contributors give a fixed sum every month, which is automatically deducted from their bank account. These donors are the most profitable ones for a charity. On average, they give more than donors who contribute sporadically. They also facilitate the long-run financial planning of the charity, and they reduce the administrative and fundraising costs. What will influence a donor's decision to commit to a monthly contribution scheme? If the costs and benefits associated with contributing to a charity occur at different points in time, the answer will depend on the donor's inter-temporal preferences. More specifically, it will be of importance whether donors are time consistent or whether they exhibit present-biased preferences. This paper designs and tests a fundraising strategy that allows for present-biased preferences among donors. The strategy, Give More Tomorrow, was implemented as a randomized field experiment in collaboration with a large charity. 1134 donors that make monthly contributions were randomly assigned to one of two treatment groups. In the first group, monthly donors were asked to increase their donation starting immediately. In the second group, monthly donors were asked to increase their donations starting two months later. Mean donations were 32 percent higher in the latter group, a highly significant difference. Donations conditional on giving were also significantly higher in the latter group. The effect of the GMT strategy is economically large and highly profitable to the charity. Paper 2: Crowding Out or Crowding In? The crowding-out hypothesis says that private givers, who are also taxpayers, will use their tax-financed donations as a substitute for their voluntary donations, thus reducing the net effectiveness of grants (Warr, 1982, 1983; Roberts, 1984; Bernheim, 1986; and Andreoni, 1988). While theory predicts a one-to-one relationship between government grants and private donations, econometric and experimental studies have found evidence of partial or no crowding out (see, e.g., Khanna et al., 1995; Payne, 1998; Khanna and Sandler, 2000; and Okten and Weisbrod, 2000). A recent contribution to this literature argues that government grants reduce the organizations' fundraising efforts, which may indirectly cause a decrease in private contributions (Andreoni and Payne, 2003). This paper employs a previously unexplored panel dataset to test whether government grants crowd out private donations to charitable organizations, controlling for changes in the organizations' fundraising behavior. The data covers all registered charitable organizations in Sweden between 1989 and 2003. We have a total of 361 organizations where the largest group is health related. The panel data allows us to control for unobserved organizational heterogeneity and time fixed effects. Furthermore, we use a 2SLS specification to control for possible endogeneity in government grants and fundraising expenditures. Complete crowding out can be strongly rejected. In the 2SLS regression, the estimated crowd-out is small and highly significant in the full sample, on average 5.0%. In the disaggregated sample, we cannot reject zero crowding out for any type of organization in the 2SLS regressions. Furthermore, we find strong evidence that organizations are net revenue maximizing, indicating that fundraising activities are efficient. Paper 3: Is Foreign Aid Paternalistic? (with Ola Granstrom and Felix Masiye) In this paper, we experimentally investigate whether donors are paternalistically altruistic when contributing to foreign aid. A paternalist may be defined as someone who advances other people's interests, such as life, health, or safety, at the expense of their liberty or autonomy. In economic theory, a donor is said to be paternalistically altruistic if he cares about a recipient's wellbeing, but does not fully respect the recipient's preferences (Pollak, 1988; Jones-Lee, 1991, 1992; Jacobsson et al., 2005). In a double-blind experiment, a subject chooses whether to make a monetary or a tied transfer (mosquito nets) to an anonymous household in Zambia. Recipients have revealed preferences for money, as their willingness to pay for mosquito nets is positive but below the market price. A monetary transfer will therefore preserve the household's preferences while a tied transfer is paternalistic. The mean donation of mosquito nets differs significantly from zero, thereby implying paternalistic preferences among donors. Paternalistic donors constitute 65 percent of the total sample, whereas purely altruistic donors constitute 15 percent. We conclude that health-focused paternalistic rather than purely altruistic preferences dominate the foreign-aid giving of individuals. Paper 4: Altruism without Borders? (with Ola Granstrom) Why do individuals contribute to foreign aid? Does the willingness to give increase the more we know about the recipients? Although there is some literature on the strategic interests of countries in providing foreign aid, (see, e.g., Alesina and Dollar, 2000) very little is yet known about which preferences guide the foreign-aid giving of individual donors. This paper experimentally tests altruism over borders. We design a cross-country dictator game where the degree of identification of the recipient is varied in four treatments: (1) anonymity, (2) photo, (3) information and (4) photo and information. In addition, questionnaire data on donor characteristics is gathered. The mean donation is 55%, which is considerably higher than in standard dictator games. In contrast to previous within-country experiments, we find no significant effect of identification on donations. Furthermore, we find that women donate significantly more than men (64 compared to 50 percent) and that those who state that aid is too large donate significantly less than those who state that aid is too small (24 compared to 67 percent). / Diss.

Aid, drugs, and informality : essays in empirical economicsGranström, Ola January 2008 (has links)
The first three papers of this Ph.D. thesis experimentally study the preferences of individuals making cross-border charitable donations. In Is Foreign Aid Paternalistic? (with Anna Breman and Felix Masiye) subjects choose whether to make a monetary or a tied transfer (mosquito nets) to an anonymous household in Zambia. The mean donation of mosquito nets differs significantly from zero, and paternalistic donors constitute a higher share of the sample than do purely altruistic donors. The second paper, Corruption and the Case for Tied Aid (with Anna Breman), compares the willingness to give money to Zambia's national health budget (CBoH) with the willingness to donate mosquito nets to a health-care clinic in Lusaka. Donors clearly prefer tied aid to untied program aid. Exit questionnaires suggest the reason to be a fear of corruption and misallocation at the CBoH. In Altruism without Borders? (with Anna Breman), we study whether the willingness to give increase with the information given about the recipients. We find no significant effect of identification on donations. Women and Informality: Evidence from Senegal, the fourth paper (with Elena Bardasi), uses household survey data to study women’s work and gender wage gaps in the formal and informal sector in Dakar. Multinomial logit analysis reveals that women are 3-4 times less likely to work formally rather than informally. Wage regressions reveal that little schooling, for instance, explains a considerable part of the gender wage gap. In the informal sector, however, the wage gap between men and women remains at 28%. The fifth paper, Does Innovation Pay? A Study of the Pharmaceutical Product Cycle, examines how a drug’s life cycle depends on its degree of therapeutic innovation. All New Chemical Entities introduced in Sweden between 1987 and 2000 are rated into one of three innovation classes: A (important gains); B (modest gains); and C (little gains). Over a 15-year life cycle, the average class A drug raises 15% higher revenues than B drugs and 114% higher revenues than C drugs. But yearly class A and C sales differences are rarely significant. When comparing innovative (A and B pooled) and imitative (C) drugs, 15-year life cycle revenues of innovative drugs exceed those of imitative drugs by 100%. This sales difference is significant in 19 out of 20 years after launch. / Diss. Stockholm : Handelshögskolan i Stockholm, 2008 Sammanfattning jämte 5 uppsatser

Autonomia da criança e do adolescente e suas fronteiras: capacidade, família e direitos da personalidade / Childs and adolescents autonomy boundaries: capacity, family and personality rightsThaís Fernanda Tenório Sêco 03 December 2013 (has links)
Os estudos sobre os direitos da criança e do adolescente muito frequentemente trazem um tom festivo com ares de celebração pelo que ficou positivado seja na Constituição, seja no Estatuto da Criança e do Adolescente, seja nos Tratados Internacionais. Diz-se do século XX que é o século da criança e, de fato, ao longo do último século é inegável a evolução do reconhecimento dos chamados menores de idade como seres humanos autônomos, dotados de dignidade. Não obstante, uma investigação mais aprofundada e crítica das estruturas de proteção montadas com o escopo de corresponder às peculiaridades desses sujeitos de direitos revela o senso de discriminação arbitrária que nunca deixou de estar em sua base e indica que por mais sólidas que sejam as vigas levantadas em prol da proteção e da criança e do adolescente, elas o foram sobre um alicerce impróprio: o instituto das incapacidades. Investigado o sistema de proteção à criança e ao adolescente com consideração aos fatos da vida nos quais se mostra necessária a invocação desse sistema, é possível vislumbrar quanto esse instituto das incapacidades assume um papel que, a princípio, não se desejava a ele atribuir, tornando-se centralizador e unificador do microssistema. Sendo inaceitável tamanha importância, quando inseridas as normas específicas de proteção no contexto do ordenamento em geral, é preciso desvendar algumas das preocupações éticas que estão na base da formulação de um sistema especial de proteção aos sujeitos de direito que se encontram ainda em desenvolvimento. A intenção é resgatar o debate sobre os direitos da criança e do adolescente de um estado de estagnação em que se encontra, mapeando os aspectos que merecem ser levados em conta em uma abordagem sobre o tema e desvendando nessa cartografia as fronteiras que contêm o exercício livre e autônomo das decisões existenciais das crianças e dos adolescentes para que não sejam mais traçados aquém das suas necessidades nem além de suas possibilidades. / Studies about child and teenagers rights use do begin with a happy tom and celebration feeling for what has become positivated in the Constitution, in the specific Law or even in the International Convention. They say XX Century in the century of the child and, indeed, during the last century, the evolution in the recognition of the so called minors human condition is undeniable. Nonetheless, a more profound and critics investigation of the protection structures build with for corresponding to these subjects peculiarities reveals the discrimination sense that has always been in its base and indicates that, as much solid may be the beams raised for the protection of childhood and youth, it was made on improper foundation: incapacity institute. Investigating child and adolescent protection system, considering the life facts that demands it, it is possible to see how this institute of incapacities takes a role that, at principle, was not to be given to it, resulting to be centralizing and unifying of all the microsystem. The unacceptance of its importance in a human dignity compromised legal system makes necessary to discover some of the ethics concern that comes before the formulation of a special child and youth protection system. The intention is to rescue the debate from the stagnation it has become into throw an comprehension approach that reveals the limits of a free decision exercise guaranteed even for children and teenagers so as these limits wont be traced below those necessities or beyond those possibilities.
