Tal proposta é levada a efeito a partir de duas investigações específicas. Primeira, o trabalho constrói um índice de preços para o valor das residências a partir não só de pareamento nas características de variáveis estruturais, como também, de forma inédita na literatura, nas variáveis de amenidades locais para o nível de cidade (no caso a Cidade do Recife). Essa construção é aplicada à subdivisão geográfica da cidade (as regiões políticas administrativas (RPAs)) algo, na verdade, inexistente. Segunda, no sentido de obter evidências a respeito dos determinantes da variação destes preços, o trabalho aplica uma decomposição, devido a Firpo et al. (2006, 2007, 2009 e 2011), que permite mensurar a contribuição de variáveis estruturais e de amenidades locais ao nível de quantil da distribuição dos preços, aplicação inédita no estudo do diferencial dos preços no mercado de imóveis. Para tal, são utilizados dados do ITBI e de shapefiles de amenidades do período de 2000 a 2012. Os resultados obtidos, quanto ao índice de preços, indicam que a dinâmica de preço dos imóveis varia de acordo com a RPA analisada, indicando que inferências sobre o mercado de imóveis com base em preços médios dos imóveis (ou medidas de tendência central) podem não refletir a realidade analisada. Já quanto à decomposição, constata-se que o efeito preço e o efeito dotação, resultantes da decomposição, tem dinâmicas diferentes na mesma variável apenas alterando-se o quantil. O comportamento aos extremos da distribuição (quantil 0,10 e 0,90) é fortemente influenciado pelas características dos imóveis, em especial as intrínsecas, já entre os quantis 0,20 e 0,80 o ambiente por si só é que é o protagonista do diferencial de preço e neste caso as características dos imóveis contribuem para que o diferencial de preço não seja ainda maior, com destaque para a variável área privada. Tais evidências revelam que o comportamento médio da cidade não pode ser generalizado ao nível de RPA e nem muito menos pode ser generalizado para todas as estratificações da distribuição de preço. / Motivated by the strong increase in property prices occurred in Brazilian cities during the 2000s and from the specific case of the city of Recife, this thesis aims to analyze the dynamics of house price in that city between 2000 and 2012. This proposal is carried out from two specific investigations. First, the work builds a price index for the value of dwellings from not only matching the characteristics of structural variables, but also in an unprecedented way in the literature, the variables of local amenities for the city level (in this case the Recife City). This construction is applied to the official geographical subdivision of the city, the RPAs (the Administrative Policy Areas) something actually non-existent. Second, to obtain evidence about the determinants of variation of prices, this work applies a decomposition due to Firpo et al. (2006, 2007, 2009 and 2011), it allows to measure the contribution of structural variables and local amenities over distribution of prices for the level of quantile, it's a unprecedented application in the differential study of prices in the real estate market. To this end, we use the ITBI data from 2000 through 2012 and the shapefiles of amenities. The results obtained as to the price index, show that the dynamic of price of properties varies according to the analyzed RPA, indicating that inferences about the real estate market based on average prices of dwellings (or central tendency statistics) may not reflect the analyzed reality. In respect the results of the decomposition, it is found that the coefficient and endowment effects have different dynamics in the same variable only by changing the quantile. The behavior at the extremes of the price distribution (quantile 0.10 and 0.90) is strongly influenced by the characteristics of the property, especially the intrinsic characteristics. For the quantiles from 0.20 through 0.80 the environment it's who is the protagonist of the price differences. In this case the real estate features contribute to the price differential do not be high, especially the private area variable. Such evidences show that the average behavior of the city may not be generalized to the level of RPA and much less may be generalized to all stratifications of the price distribution.

Le premier chapitre montre l'interdépendance sur le marché locatif entre le formalisme procédural (FP) et les réseaux sociaux locaux. Tandis que le FP augmente le coût de résolution des conflits juridiques entre propriétaires et locataires, les réseaux sociaux présentent l'avantage de pouvoir régler un conflit sans la justice. Le FP permet de rendre plus intéressant aux yeux du propriétaire les individus appartenant à un réseau social. Le deuxième chapitre explique l'importance du soleil sur la demande de régulation du marché locatif. Les pays d'Europe du sud très ensoleillés sont attractifs de par leur douceur de vie. Cette immigration potentielle augmente la tension sur le marché locatif. Pour la réduire, les individus d'Europe du sud développent une complémentarité entre capital social local et régulation. Cette stratégie explique un équilibre méditerranéen où le capital social local et le FP sont élevés. A contrario, l'absence d'attractivité des pays faiblement ensoleillés explique un équilibre anglo-saxon et scandinave aux caractéristiques opposées. Le troisième chapitre explique le soutien pour la régulation du marché du travail par la présence de régulations sur le marché locatif. Lorsque ce dernier est très régulé, les propriétaires sélectionnent les locataires selon leur capacité à payer le loyer. Protéger les contrats à durée indéterminée oblige les entreprises à sélectionner les travailleurs et permet alors aux propriétaires de mieux estimer le risque individuel de licenciement. Nous construisons un modèle où les individus sans emploi demandent plus de régulations et de protections en dépit de l’augmentation du chômage et de la part des contrats temporaires. / The first contribution studies the complementarities between the strength of social networks and the stringency of procedural formalism. While procedural formalism increases the cost of legal dispute resolution between landlords and tenants, social networks allow conflicts to be solved without recourse to justice. Procedural formalism is thus a way to provide a market advantage to local individuals embedded in dense local social networks at the expense of nonlocal agents without access to such networks.The second contribution deals with the importance of the sun on the demand for regulation in the rental market. Southern European countries with good climate amenities are attractive by their mildness of life. This potential immigration increases the pressure on the rental market. To reduce it, individuals in Southern Europe develop complementarities between social capital and local regulations. This strategy explains a Mediterranean equilibrium characterized by high levels of local social capital and procedural formalism. Conversely, the lack of attractiveness of countries with low climate amenities leads to an Anglo-Saxon and Scandinavian equilibrium with opposite features.The third contribution explains the support for labor market regulation by the presence of regulations on the rental market. When the rental market is very regulated, landlords screen applicants with regard to their ability to pay the rent. Protecting regular jobs offers a second-best technology to sort workers, thereby increasing the rental market size. We provide a model where non-employed workers demand protected jobs despite unemployment and the share of short-term jobs increase.

The aim of the diploma thesis was to design the reconstruction of the music hall in the existing building of the private music school D-Music. The building is located in Kromeriz, cadastral area Kromeriz. I emphasize the design from the perspective of acoustics. The thesis also evaluated the noise load from the adjacent road II. class, for design hole fillings. It is a five-storey building with one underground and four above-ground floors. The music hall is located on the first floor and is designed multifunctionaly - for music with mobile acoustic absorbers for speech.

Market analyse is done both text and graphics.

This thesis deals with the analysis of the valuation methods and their mutual comparison and assessment of suitability. The theoretical part presents the basic concepts associated with the valuation of real estate valuation methods for the analysis of the type of property house and the notion of civic amenities. In the practical part of the work five houses in the Ústí nad Orlicí are described and measured. The main object of this work is to compare the impact of service availability on the marketability of houses and evaluate which of the methods reflect the amenities most accurately. Another object of this work is to evaluate the difference in the two possible procedures landscaping cost calculation method according to the current pricing regulation. Finally is made a comparison of the valuation methods and evaluate the most appropriate method.

Cette recherche trouve son origine dans le constat selon lequel le périurbain devient progressivement plus complexe et que l’homogénéité présumée de ces espaces devrait être remise en question. En effet, l'étalement urbain est maintenant caractérisé par une série de processus post-suburbains multiples, inégaux et émergents, qui prennent des formes spécifiques dans des contextes spatio-temporels distincts. Dès lors, nous visons à examiner les impacts des évolutions récentes observées dans les franges périurbaines de Lille et de Belo Horizonte sur l’accès (potentiel et effectif) aux équipements urbains quotidiens (commerces, services, équipements de santé et de loisirs). Cet exercice comparatif, qui ne peut pas être réduit aux critères socioéconomiques et démographiques, propose de se concentrer sur les processus ordinaires qui contribuent à façonner les modes de vie des habitants périurbains. Dans un premier temps, les résultats montrent que, même si les grandes tendances se révèlent similaires dans les deux contextes, la métropole lilloise semble bénéficier aux groupes de classe moyenne, tandis que Belo Horizonte semble être plus polarisée. Deuxièmement, les résultats des entretiens semi-directifs menés avec les habitants des franges périurbaines montrent que leur accès aux ressources urbaines passe par une série de contraintes, stratégies et arbitrages, comme la trajectoire résidentielle des ménages, l’optimisation des déplacements, etc. L'analyse souligne à la fois la prédominance de la dépendance automobile dans les espaces de densité intermédiaire et la diversité des comportements de déplacement et des stratégies de mobilité, qui sont influencés non seulement par les caractéristiques individuelles, mais également par les structures spatiales et locales. / This research elaborates on a growing consensus in academic literature that low-density areas become gradually more complex and that their presumed homogeneity should be questioned. Undeniably, suburban sprawl is now characterized by a series of multifaceted, uneven and emergent post-suburban processes that assume specific forms across divergent spatiotemporal contexts. This thesis seeks to examine the impacts of the recent shifts observed in the suburban areas of Lille and Belo Horizonte in (potential and real) access to daily urban amenities (shops, services, health and leisure facilities). This comparative exercise that cannot be resumed in socio-economic and demographic criteria proposes to focus on ordinary processes that help shaping suburbanism(s), or suburban’s ways of life. First, results indicate that although global tendencies are shown to be similar in both contexts, the Metropolitan Area of Lille seems to benefit middle-class groups, while Belo Horizonte seems to be more polarized. Second, the results of semi-structured interviews conducted with the inhabitants of the suburban areas highlight how access to urban amenities is influenced by individual obstacles and strategies, such as residential trajectories and sequential trips. The analysis underlines, on the one hand, automobile dependency and, on the other hand, the diversity of travel behaviors and mobility strategies that are influenced not only by individual characteristics, but also spatial and local structures. / A presente pesquisa baseia-se na observação de que as áreas periurbanas vêm se tornando progressivamente mais complexas e que a suposta homogeneidade de tais espaços deve ser questionada. De fato, a expansão urbana caracteriza-se atualmente por uma série de processos póssuburbanos múltiplos, desiguais e emergentes, que assumem formas específicas em contextos espaço-temporais dist intos. Nesse sentido, pretende-se examinar os impactos das evoluções recentes observadas nas franjas periurbanas de Lille e Belo Horizonte no acesso (potencial e efetivo) às atividades urbanas diárias (lojas, serviços, equipamentos de saúde e lazer). Tal exercício comparativo, que não pode ser reduzido a critérios socioeconômicos e demográficos, propõe analisar os processos que constroem e a mobilidade dos moradores da periferia urbana. Inicialmente, os resultados mostram que, embora as principais tendências sejam semelhantes nos dois contextos, a metrópole de Lille beneficia os grupos de classe média, enquanto Belo Horizonte apresenta uma maior polarização. Em segundo lugar, os resultados de entrevistas semi-estruturadas realizadas com moradores das periferias mostram que o acesso aos equipamentos urbanos é associado a uma série de restrições, estratégias e arbitragens, como a trajetória residencial dos habitantes, a otimização dos deslocamentos etc. A análise permite destacar tanto a dependência do automóvel nas áreas periféricas, quanto a diversidade de estratégias de mobilidade, que são influenciadas não apenas pelas características individuais dos habitantes, mas também pelas configurações espaciais e locais.

The aim of the thesis is to evaluate and compare the residential satisfaction of seniors aged 65 plus in three housing estates in Prague - Invalidovna, Háje and Nové Butovice, among other aspects differentiated by the date of development. The research undertaken at the turn of May and June 2011 using the method of a semi-structured interview endeavours to uncover seniors' satisfaction in several areas - basic stores and services, leisure time activities, social relationships, transport and mobility, public spaces and green areas, housing, security. In addition, the residential stability of seniors and overall residential satisfaction are assessed.

La planification urbaine regroupe les moyens institutionnels mis en œuvre pour gérer les évolutions urbaines. Au cours du temps, les documents de planification urbaine français ont vu leurs objectifs évoluer en vue d’une gestion plus maîtrisée des espaces urbanisés (lois SRU et Grenelle). Aussi, la question de la protection de l’environnement et des espaces a été renforcée par la législation européenne qui a obligé certains documents d’urbanisme à intégrer une évaluation environnementale (en 2001 pour l’Europe, applicable en France en 2005). Cette thèse propose une démarche d’évaluation complémentaire aux systèmes d’indicateurs des évaluations des Plans Locaux d’Urbanisme et plus largement de questionner l’impact des PLU sur le territoire urbanisé. En effet, les indicateurs des évaluations des PLU semblent renseigner plus sur les performances durables des villes que sur la qualité du dispositif d’urbanisme règlementaire. La démarche proposée se base sur la création d’un corpus d’indicateurs devant montrer les effets du PLU par rapport à des « critères » qui sont du ressort de l’urbanisme règlementaire (zonage, contraintes formelles du bâti et d’aménagement de la parcelle, équipements publics et aménités urbaines) et de « l’urbanisme durable » (au sens des lois SRU et Grenelle). Enfin, l’agrégation des indicateurs par analyses multicritères et statistiques permettront aux rédacteurs des PLU de disposer d’un outil de compréhension des règles complexes ainsi que d’un outil d’aide à la décision, en vue de faciliter les choix d’évolution du zonage et des règlements. La démarche est appliquée au PLU de Toulouse. / Urban planning includes the institutional means used to control urban development. Over the years, the French urban plans saw their goals modified towards a more controlled urban space management (SRU and Grenelle laws). Besides, environmental and spatial protection issues were reinforced by European legislation, which made the environmental assessment compulsory for some plans (in 2001 for Europe, applied in France in 2005). This PhD research aims to propose a complementary assessment approach to the current indicators contained in the local plan’s assessments, and, more broadly, to question the impacts of the local plans on urban areas. In fact, the local plan indicators seem to be more adapted for a city sustainability performance analysis than for an analysis of the quality of the regulations contained in the plans. This approach starts with the creation of a set of indicators, which are expected to show the effects of the local plan, focusing on “regulatory planning criteria” (zoning, constraints for a building shape and parcel layout, public facilities and amenities) and “sustainable planning” (based on the SRU and Grenelle laws definitions). Finally, the aggregation of the indicators, by the use of multicriteria and statistical analysis, will supply regulatory planners not only with a tool for better understanding of the complex regulations but also a decision aiding tool, whose purpose is to facilitate the choices planners have to make for the evolution of the zoning and the regulation. The local plan of the city of Toulouse will be used as a case study to show the application of the approach.

This thesis examines industrial welfarism in Australia from 1890 to 1965. This period witnessed the gradual spread of the welfarism movement throughout Australian industry as employers sought ways to increase productivity and control in the face of external challenges. Once reaching its peak in the immediate post-War period, the welfarism movement was gradually subsumed as part of the increasing formalisation of personnel management. Waves of interest in welfare provision coincided with periods of labour shortage and/or labour militancy in Australia, indicating its dual role in the management of labour. Firstly, by offering benefits and services beyond that made necessary by the law or industrial awards, welfarism was designed to create a pool of good quality workers for management to draw from. Secondly, managers sought to enhance their control over these workers and their productive effort, using welfarism as a technique to build worker consent to managerial authority. This could be achieved through subtle methods aimed at boosting loyalty and morale, or through more direct programs designed to increase worker dependency on the company. In both ways, individual and collective worker resistance could be minimised, thereby reinforcing managerial prerogative. Despite its adoption by a variety of companies, a number of economic, political and institutional factors limited the extent of industrial welfarism in Australia. These include the small-scale of most enterprises prior to the Second World War, state involvement in the area of industrial relations and welfare provision, and the strength of organised labour. While the welfarism movement did not reach the heights experienced overseas, it nonetheless provided an important contribution to the development of formal labour management in Australia.
