É plural, diversificado e conduzido por olhares, percepções e experiências múltiplas. Esta dissertação procura, através da análise de trabalhos de artistas e fotógrafos contemporâneos, refletir sobre o fazer criativo chamado de antifotografia. Nossa investigação debruça-se especificamente sobre dois ensaios do coletivo brasileiro Cia de Foto - extinto em 2013 após dez anos de atividade - Retiro (2011) e Pais Interior (2012). A Cia de Foto fez uso de métodos que ignoram fronteiras e redefinem conceitos. Utilizando como ponto focal os trabalhos do coletivo Cia de Foto. Esta investigação tece considerações para compreender este processo antifotográfico através de diálogos com estudiosos e teóricos da fotografia como Ronaldo Entler, André Rouillé, Vilém Flusser, Roland Barthes, François Laruelle, Rubens Fernandes Júnior, Susan Sontag e Joan Fontcuberta. / The creation process in the contemporary photography is infringing, restless and an avid explorer. It is plural, diverse and driven by multiple looks, perceptions and experiences. This work seeks, through the analysis of works of contemporary artists and photographers, to reflect upon a creative doing called anti-photography. Our research focuses specifically on two photo essays from the Brazilian called Cia de Foto (extincted in 2013 after ten years of activity): Retiro (2011) and País Interior (2012). Cia de Foto made use of methods that ignore borders and redefine concepts. Using as a focal point the work of the collective photographic collective Cia de Foto. This research presents considerations in order to understand this anti-photographic process through dialogues with scholars and theorists of photography such as Ronaldo Entler, André Rouillé, Flusser, Roland Barthes, François Laruelle, Rubens Fernandes Júnior, Susan Sontag, and Joan Fontcuberta.

Interessou perceber de que maneira o espaço urbano torna-se um constituidor de referências do corpo contemporâneo, e como tais referências passam a dialogar com o resultado estético de criações coreográficas. Para tanto, foi proposta uma pesquisa centrada no repertório coreográfico do grupo Cena 11 Cia. de Dança (Florianópolis-SC) que, além de ter grande importância para a expansão da dança contemporânea brasileira mundo afora, possui uma série de características específicas em seu repertório coreográfico que remetem à cidade e ao corpo urbanizado. Entretanto, não se tratou de fazer uma análise crítica das obras do grupo, ou estudar especificamente a cidade de Florianópolis. Antes, objetivou-se fazer um estudo dos aspectos comuns às cidades contemporâneas e a partir daí, compreender de que maneira tais aspectos constituem a corporeidade do bailarino e consequentemente a estética de sua dança. Pretendeu-se, ainda, entender em que medida uma criação coreográfica pode também ser vista como um dos modos de a cidade escrever sua experiência contemporânea, como a dança torna-se uma forma de comunicação/linguagem da cidade e, assim, como ela pode tornar-se uma forma de conhecimento do cotidiano / Abstract: This work sets out to identify possible relations between the body and the city, and how these relations are revealed through the language of dance. It's import is in recognizing the way urban space becomes an embodiment of references for the contemporary body, and how these references negotiate with the aesthetic result of choreographic creations. To do this I propose a study grounded on the repertory of the group, Cena 11 Cia. de Dança (Florianoplis -SC),which besides being important in spreading Brazilian contemporary dance throughout the world, possesses a series of specific characteristics within their choreographic repertoire which integrate the city and an urbanized body. Needless to say this work is not an critical analysis of the group's works, or even a specific study of the city of Florianopolis. Prior to this a study was made of common aspects of con temporary cities and from this, an endeavor was made to understand in what way these aspects constitute the corporeality of the dancer and consequently the aesthetic of his dance. I propose, furthermore, to understand in what measure a choreographic creation could also be seen as one of the ways a city writes it's contemporary experience, and how dance becomes a form of the city's communication/language as well as a form of quotidian knowledge / Mestrado / Artes / Mestre em Artes

COVID-19 pandemin har tvingat många organisationer att implementera en digital arbetsmiljö och börja arbeta på distans. Anställda inom IT som behöver samarbeta för att uppnå företagets mål, behöver spendera mycket tid på att kommunicera genom digitala kanaler där det kan dröja att få svar jämfört med ansikte-mot-ansikte. Med distansarbete har en mängd utmaningar medföljt med att säkra de anställdas personliga nätverk och hemmakontor för att kunna utföra sina arbetsuppgifter lika bra hemifrån som på kontoret. Studiens syfte var att analysera skillnaderna mellan säkerheten när arbetet sker på distans jämfört med på kontoret. Skillnaderna har analyserats och några utmaningar med säkerheten under distansarbete har presenterats. Utifrån de presenterade utmaningarna, gavs förslag på hur IT-företag skulle kunna arbeta för att säkra deras arbete även under distansarbete. Studien fokuserar på dataintrång och informationsläckor. En kvalitativ forskningsmetod har använts med semi-strukturerade intervjuer som samlades in på ett ledande företag inom IT-branschen. Genom att använda CIA- triaden som fokuserar på konfidentialitet, integritet och tillgänglighet, analyserades företagets säkerhetsarbete och förslag kunde presenteras utifrån resultatet. En analys genomfördes utifrån det empiriska resultatet från intervjuerna där den empirisk datan analyserades och därefter jämfördes med den insamlade litteraturen från litteraturstudien. Diskussionen presenterade några stora utmaningar för IT-företag under distansarbete. Därefter gavs två förslag på hur IT-företag kan arbeta med och vad de behöver tänka på angående säkerheten, baserat på litteratur och empiriska data. Studien avslutas med förslag på fortsatt forskning som relaterar till områden i den här studien, som kan fördjupa området ytterligare. / The COVID-19 pandemic has forced many organizations to implement a digital work environment and start working from home. Employees, who may have to collaborate to reach their goals will have to put in extra time to communicate through digital channels instead of face-to-face. With the remote work came a lot of challenges with securing the employees personal networks and personal offices so they can perform their work as well from home as from their office. The purpose of this thesis was to analyze the differences between the work with security while working remote compared to in their office. The differences were analyzed, and some challenges were presented. With the presented challenges, some suggestions about how companies in IT can work to secure their work even during remote work. This paper only focuses on security breaches and information leaks. A qualitative study was conducted by using semi-structured interviews. The interviews were conducted on a leading company in the IT-industry. By using the theoretical framework CIA-triad, the security work by the interviewed company could be analyzed and suggestions could be given from the results. An analysis was made on the empirical result from the interviews with comparison to the conducted literature from previous chapters. The analysis showed how the literature were implemented and interpreted at a real company. The discussion was based on the analysis and big challenges for IT-companies during the remote work were presented. Furthermore, the conclusion presented two suggestions for IT-companies to work with and think about to improve their security, based on the literature and empirical data. The thesis end with suggestions of future work that relates to this subject and can be interesting to see results in those areas.

When the military forces of the Third Reich invaded the Soviet Union in June 1941, the German authorities used local anti-Communist collaborators to facilitate the invasion and the occupation of the conquered territories. Many of these Byelorussian collaborators became complicit in the perpetration of the Holocaust and eagerly created a puppet regime under the direct control of the Schutzstaffel (SS). However, this regime and the crimes of its members remain largely unknown. As the Third Reich crumbled, the members of the SS-sponsored Byelorussian Central Council (BCC) hid themselves in the confusion of postwar Europe’s Displaced Persons camps, where they began to forge relationships with the intelligence agencies of the western Allies. As the mistrust between the Soviet Union and its erstwhile allies grew, these Nazi collaborators represented themselves as anti-Communist refugees from Stalinist persecution. They successfully navigated the currents of the early Cold War, evading arrest and prosecution for their wartime crimes with the help of their new sponsors in American intelligence. Many of the most notorious members of the BCC immigrated to the United States and became naturalized citizens, trading the vestiges of the Third Reich’s Byelorussian intelligence networks and military forces to American intelligence in exchange for protection from extradition and prosecution. This work focuses on the members of the BCC, the extent of their criminal collaboration with the Third Reich, and the role American intelligence played in helping these Byelorussian Nazi collaborators escape justice and become United States citizens.

Anteriormente, tuve la oportunidad de laborar por espacio de 5 años en FONCODES como asistente de la Supervisión en Planta, lo que me permite ahora dilucidar entre el trabajo del sector público y del sector privado. Pero, considero que, mi mayor experiencia está relacionada con el trabajo en minería, donde he podido desarrollarme en diversos ampos, pues la minería requiere de infraestructura de diversas áreas que complementa y hace posible la labor de extracción y producción de concentrado, finalidad de toda empresa minera. Mi principal función dentro de la mina fue la de Asistente de Supervisión de Obras Civiles. El trabajo que más tiempo me ocupó y de mayor envergadura fue el “Recrecimiento del Dique de Relaves Chuspic”, donde ocupé el cargo de Asistente del Jefe del Proyecto. El trabajo lo realicé con el apoyo de un topógrafo y un técnico en mecánica de suelos, y baja la supervisión del Jefe del Proyecto, este trabajo duro año y medio de los 3 años que estuve en la mina Huanzalá, perteneciente a la Cía. Minera Santa Luisa, del Grupo Mitsui Minning & Smelting Co. Ltda. Estas y otras labores dentro del campo de la Ingeniería Civil, permitieron aplicar mis conocimientos adquiridos en la Escuela Profesional de Ingeniería Civil de la Facultad de Ingeniería, de la Universidad Ricardo Palma y que, ahora después de varios años de egresado, me permiten acogerme a la modalidad de Titulación por experiencia profesional.

Thesis advisor: Marc Landy / This thesis serves to clarify and concretize the controversy surrounding the debate on torture as it pertains to the War on Terror during the Bush Administration years. It argues that policy and rhetoric decisions made at the top of the political food chain contributed to the instances of abuse and torture that occurred in the various arenas of the war (i.e. Afghanistan, Iraq, Guantanamo, and CIA “black sites”). Such an argument is made through an analysis of what defines interrogation and torture, what techniques were in fact authorized, what factors went into determining which techniques to use, and what influence these techniques had on abuses that occurred. This thesis concludes with policy updates based on lessons learned and briefly addresses the efforts made by the Obama Administration in regards to torture, interrogation, and terrorism. / Thesis (BA) — Boston College, 2010. / Submitted to: Boston College.

The disease can manifest itself in different clinical forms: localized cutaneous leishmaniasis, disseminated cutaneous leishmaniasis, recidivans and diffuse cutaneous leishmaniasis. The North and Northeast (Brazil) are the most affected area by the disease. Pentavalent antimonials and amphotericin B have been the most used drugs for the treatment of this disease but may cause many side effects, which leads the patients to discontinue treatment. Control or progression of the disease has been related to the immune response triggered by the individual. PNP (purine nucleoside phosphorylase) is the key enzyme in the purine salvage route catalyzing the reversible phosphorolysis of purine nucleosides such as deoxyinosine or deoxyguanosine producing their respective bases and deoxyrribose-1-phosphate. The PNP inhibitors can be used for treating diseases caused by disorder mediated by T cells. Immucillin - DI4G (4th generation Immucillin ; 7-((bis(2-hydroxyiethyl)amine)methyl)-1,5-dihydro-4H-pyrrolo[3,2-d]pyrimidin-4-one) is considered as a potent inhibitor of PNP. Objective: development of pre-formulation and formulation studies of a pharmaceutical form for topical use containing Immucillin-DI4G as drug candidate for Cutaneous Leishmaniasis treatment. Material and Methods: Characterization of the compound was performed by NMR, FTIR-ATR and HRMS. The stability of the amorphous powder was evaluated over 90 days using a HPLC method for quantification. Formulations have been developed for stability, rheological and spreadability studies over 30 and 90 days. A method for the quantification of Immucillin-DI4G in the formulation was developed and validated using the HPLC. Results and discussion: The Immucillin - DI4G (amorphous powder) was stable up to 30 days when stored at 4 ?C and 25 ?C. Formulation 1 (Immucillin - DI4G 1.1% Carboxyvinylpolymer gel 2%) was stable only when stored at 4 ?C for a period of 60 days. Formulation 1 was considered as a non-Newtonian fluid with pseudoplastic behavior and no alterations in viscosity was observed over 90 days. On the other hand, significant changes in spreadability was observed when topical formulation was stored at 45 ?C. The formulation containing additives (formulation 2) showed an improvement in stability when stored at 45 ?C for a period of 30 days, but there was a significant decrease in drug content when stored at 4 ?C and 25 ?C. Formulations 3 (Immucillin-DI4G a 1,1% Gel-Cream) and 4 (Immucillin-DI4G 1.1% in Hydroxypropylcellulose polymer at 2%) presented significant loss in the drug content in 30 days when stored at 45 ?C. The results shows that further studies should be conducted in order to analyze the possible degradation products looking for design of novel formulations. / Introdu??o: A Leishmaniose Cut?nea ? causada por protozo?rios do g?nero Leishmania e transmitidas atrav?s das f?meas dos mosquitos do g?nero Lutzomyia. A Leishmaniose cut?nea pode se manifestar de diferentes formas cl?nicas: cut?nea localizada, cut?nea disseminada, recidiva c?tis e cut?nea difusa. A regi?o Norte e Nordeste s?o as mais acometidas pela doen?a. Os antimoniais pentavalentes e a anfotericina B s?o os medicamentos mais utilizados para o tratamento desta doen?a, por?m podem causar v?rios efeitos adversos fazendo com que muitos pacientes abandonem o tratamento. O controle ou a progress?o da doen?a est?o diretamente relacionados com a resposta imunol?gica desencadeada pelo indiv?duo. A PNP ? a enzima chave na rota de salvamento de purinas, catalisa a fosfor?lise revers?vel de nucleos?deos pur?nicos como deoxinosina e deoxiguanosina formando suas respectivas bases e deoxirribose-1-fosfato. Os inibidores da PNP podem ser utilizados para tratamento de doen?as causadas por desordem mediada pelas c?lulas T, atrav?s da inibi??o segura e seletiva da prolifera??o da c?lula T. O Immucillin-DI4G (Immucillin de 4? gera??o; 7-((bis(2-hidroxietil)amino)metil)-1,5-diidro-4H-pirrolo[3,2-d]pirimidin-4-ona) ? considerado como um potente inibidor da PNP. Objetivo: desenvolver estudos de pr?-formula??o e formula??o de uma forma farmac?utica de uso t?pico contendo o Immucillin-DI4G como candidato a f?rmaco para tratamento da Leishmaniose Cut?nea. Materiais e M?todos: Foi realizada a caracteriza??o do composto atrav?s do RMN, EMS e FTIR-ATR. A estabilidade do p? amorfo foi avaliada durante 90 dias, o doseamento foi realizado atrav?s do CLAE. Formula??es foram desenvolvidas para o estudo de estabilidade, estudos reol?gicos e espalhabilidade durante 30 e 90 dias. Um m?todo para o doseamento do f?rmaco nas formula??es foi desenvolvido e validado empregando o m?todo de CLAE. Resultados e discuss?o: O Immucillin-DI4G (p? amorfo) mostrou-se est?vel at? 30 dias quando armazenado a 4 ?C e 25 ?C. A formula??o 1(Immucillin-DI4G a 1,1% em Gel pol?mero Carboxivin?lico a 2% ) mostrou-se est?vel apenas quando armazenada a 4 ?C por um per?odo de 60 dias; ? considerada como um Flu?do N?o-Newtoniano de comportamento pseudopl?stico, sem altera??es na viscosidade durante 90 dias, por?m com altera??es significativas na espalhabilidade quando armazenada a 45 ?C. A formula??o que continha aditivos (formula??o 2) apresentou uma melhora na estabilidade quando armazenada a 45 ?C num per?odo de 30 dias, por?m apresentou queda significativa no teor do f?rmaco quando armazenada a 4 ?C e 25 ?C. As formula??es 3 (Immucillin-DI4G a 1,1% em Creme-Gel) e 4 (Immucillin-DI4G a 1,1% em Gel Pol?mero Hidroxipropilcelulose a 2%) apresentaram perdas significativas no teor do f?rmaco em 30 dias quando armazenadas a 45 ?C. Os resultados demonstram que novos estudos devem ser realizados para a an?lise de poss?veis produtos de degrada??o, para poss?veis ajustes nas formula??es.

O primeiro ? o modo como as mais modernas t?cnicas de entrevista investigativa est?o inseridas nos cursos b?sicos de forma??o de policiais em pa?ses onde a pesquisa nesta ?rea tem avan?ado nas ?ltimas d?cadas em rela??o a pa?ses da Am?rica Latina. Realizou-se um levantamento de informa??es sobre os cursos de forma??o de policiais no Reino Unido, Nova Zel?ndia, Estados Unidos e em alguns pa?ses da Am?rica Latina - Venezuela, Argentina, Chile e Brasil, estes, selecionados por sua afinidade hist?rica-pol?tica e aqueles por apresentarem reconhecida express?o no meio cient?fico e jur?dico em rela??o ?s t?cnicas investigativas utilizadas. Estabeleceram-se algumas compara??es entre as abordagens do tema entrevista investigativa nas for?as policiais destes pa?ses. A fun??o investigativa, uma das tarefas mais importantes da pol?cia, desenvolve-se por meio da coleta de informa??es incluindo testemunhas, v?timas e suspeitos e os resultados de uma investiga??o criminal, seja de um delito de menor potencial ofensivo ou mesmo um crime grave, dependem, em grande parte, da capacidade do investigador de obter informa??es qualificadas, em quantidade e com acur?cia. Neste contexto, as t?cnicas de entrevista para obten??o de testemunhos revestem-se de especial interesse. Um policial com habilidades para realizar uma entrevista efetiva pode influenciar a qualidade e a quantidade da informa??o obtida. Nos pa?ses mais avan?ados nesta ?rea, todos policiais recebem treinamento, desde o seu ingresso na institui??o, no programa PEACE (mnem?nico para Planing and preparation, Engage and explain, Account, Closure and Evaluation). J? nos pa?ses da Am?rica Latina, nomeadamente os supracitados, n?o se verifica treinamento espec?fico em t?cnicas de entrevista atuais e cientificamente testadas, nem h? qualquer refer?ncias sobre as pesquisas mais recentes nos curr?culos de forma??o das academias de pol?cia. Outra quest?o diz respeito ?s caracter?sticas individuais do entrevistador, relevantes na obten??o de testemunhos em quantidade e com acur?cia. Esta quest?o foi investigada por meio de um estudo explorat?rio sobre a percep??o de 15 d?ades de entrevistadores e entrevistados sobre as caracter?sticas que podem facilitar ou dificultar a obten??o de testemunhos em quantidade e acur?cia. Participaram deste estudo 30 pessoas, 8 sendo 15 entrevistadores policiais (delegados e escriv?es) e 15 testemunhas que haviam sido entrevistadas pelos policiais. Foi utilizado um roteiro de entrevista semi-estruturada, abordando inicialmente a percep??o quanto ?s caracter?sticas do entrevistador que facilitam ou dificultam a obten??o de testemunhos, com quantidade e acur?cia, de modo geral e em seguida, de modo espec?fico, em rela??o ? oitiva realizada minutos antes. Estas duas etapas foram realizadas com ambos os grupos (entrevistadores e entrevistados). As respostas dos participantes foram categorizadas por ju?zes independentes, gerando seis categorias de respostas. Observou-se uma converg?ncia dos resultados com alguns estudos sobre a import?ncia do rapport, rela??o amig?vel, de confian?a que se estabelece no in?cio do contato entre entrevistador e entrevistado. Verificou-se que t?o importante quanto as t?cnicas, ? a rela??o que se estabeleceu entre entrevistador e entrevistado. As caracter?sticas do entrevistador que imprimiram maior acolhimento e sensa??o de estar ? vontade indicam uma dire??o na forma??o dos policiais como entrevistadores. No Brasil, h? ainda um longo caminho a percorrer que pode ser otimizado com os avan?os cient?ficos j? alcan?ados em outros pa?ses, no que tange a t?cnicas de entrevista investigativa, seja com suspeitos, v?timas ou testemunhas.

<p>Sammanfattning</p><p>I dagens samhälle ställs det stora krav på att ett företags IT-system skall vara tillgängligt för kommunikation. Kommunikationen kan ske inom och mellan företag. Då dessa kommunicerande aktörer kan ha olika system och arkitekturer som gör det komplicerat att kommunicera med varandra, krävs även någon applikation som hanterar detta problem. Dessa applikationer går under namnet integrationsplattformar. Då dessa plattformar fungerar som ett centralt nav i kommunikationen är det viktigt att säkerheten i dessa är av hög nivå.</p><p>Problemet är, vilka säkerhetsrisker kan tänkas dyka upp vid användandet av integrationsplattformar i ett informationssystem? Denna fråga ledde oss in på två forskningsfrågor som presenteras nedan:</p><p>• Kan denna teknik för applikationsintegration få konsekvenser för säkerheten och i så fall på vilket sätt?</p><p>• Hur ser den bakomliggande tekniken för säkerhet ut hos två viktiga integrationsplattformar på marknaden, är dessa likvärdiga så att de säkerhetsrisker som identifieras är giltiga för integrationsplattformar generellt?</p><p>Vi började med att definiera termen säkerhet utifrån tidigare kursböcker. När detta var klart kunde vi identifiera potentiella problem som företag kunde ställas inför vid implementation av integrationsplattformar. Därefter använde vi oss av Internet och olika typer av databaser och tidskrifter för att lokalisera fakta och information som behandlar integrationsplattformar för att få en bredare förståelse för hur dessa fungerar. Vi bestämde oss för att använda primärdata vid empiriinsamlingen och valde därför att genomföra intervjuer med leverantörer, tillverkare och kunder av integrationsplattformar för att kunna få olika perspektiv från hela kedjan.</p><p>En analys har gjorts av teorin och resultat av intervjun. Analysen ger ett svar på våra två forskningsfrågor utifrån våra emperiska resultat. Vi har dragit slutsatsen att det finns säkerhetsrisker med användandet av integrationsplattformar vid applikationsintegration. De säkerhetsrisker som kan dyka upp vid användandet av integrationsplattformar i ett IS är ett flertal och väldigt beroende av hur integrationsplattformens miljö är sammansatt. Vid införandet av en ny teknik finns det risk att man ärver säkerhetsproblem från den föregående tekniken.</p><p>i</p>

This thesis examines composer Nicolas Nabokov’s political involvement in the world of music in the 1940s and 1950s. In particular it concerns his attempt to use contemporary art music as a means of countering the influence of the Soviet Union, via the festivals he organised for the CIA-financed Congress for Cultural Freedom (CCF). To the best of my knowledge both Nabokov and the musical activities of the CCF have previously been ignored by musical scholarship: this thesis therefore makes an important contribution to our understanding of the relationship between music and politics in the cold war period. My text divides into two halves: chapters 1 to 4 are broadly chronological, whilst chapters 5 to 8 analyse and evaluate Nabokov's project from various perspectives. The first chapter considers some aspects of his life in the 1940s which are relevant, in various ways, to the later career. Chapters 2 and 3 examine Nabokov's writings on music and politics, which began to appear in 1943, and fell largely within the following decade. The taking up of his CCF post in 1950 represented an opportunity to replace polemic with action, and Chapter 4 is concerned with the Paris festival of 1952 - L 'Oeuvre du XXeme Siecle - Nabokov's rationale for it, and the reactions it provoked. Chapter 5 looks at the CCF as part of an attempt to amend the widespread impression that the USA was ' lacking in culture', whilst chapter 6 examines the split Nabokov's policy produced between the CCF in Paris and its New York-based American affiliate. Finally, chapters 7 and 8 seek to consider whether there might be broader connections between this anti-communist project and the growing concerns of many intellectuals for the health - and even the survival - of high culture in general and art music in particular.
