O presente trabalho tem por objetivo analisar os processos licitatórios para a concessão do transporte coletivo municipal por ônibus, ocorridos na cidade de Porto Alegre, durante o ano de 2014, visando identificar o porquê de ambos processos terem restado desertos. Para tanto, buscou-se, ao longo desse estudo de caso, subsídios que justificassem o desinteresse, por parte da iniciativa privada, em prover estes serviços. Através de pesquisa a literatura e da análise de casos de Londres (UK), França e Japão, buscou-se reunir tais subsídios. A conclusão que se obteve é de que as grandes barreiras de entrada; o grande tempo de contrato a ser firmado; o risco de receita ao operador privado, em um contexto em que o poder público determina as especificações dos serviços a serem prestados; a ausência de informações completas sobre os serviços a serem prestados; as indefinições sobre a integração tarifária do sistema metropolitano, e sobre a implantação do metrô e do BRT; podem estar entre as justificativas do desinteresse da iniciativa privada em concorrer nos certames ofertados pelo Poder Público. / This study aims to analyze the bidding process for the granting of the municipal public transport by bus, occurred in the city of Porto Alegre during the year 2014 to identify why both processes have no bidders. Therefore, we sought, throughout this case study, subsidies to justify the lack of interest on the part of the private sector in providing these services. Through research the literature and analysis of cases of London (UK), France and Japan, we sought to gather such subsidies. The conclusion obtained is that large entry barriers; the big time contract to be signed; the risk of revenue to the private operator, in a context in which the government determines the specifications of the services to be provided; the absence of complete information on the services to be provided; the uncertainties on tariff integration of the metropolitan system, and for the implementation of the metro and BRT; may be among the reasons of the private sector unwillingness to compete in contests offered by the Government.

Esta pesquisa abordou a questão do desenvolvimento social e econômico do Parque Estadual Turístico do Alto Ribeira (PETAR), localizado no sul do estado de São Paulo, a partir de um estudo geográfico realizado sob a luz da tríade analítica GTP: Geossistema, Território e Paisagem. Partindo dessa análise geográfica, foi possível identificar como as potencialidades e fragilidades do meio físico influenciaram na territorialização da região onde hoje se encontra o parque, e como a paisagem cultural é construída sobre esta realidade. Com isso foi possível contrapor a interpretação dos dados levantados ao Plano de Manejo proposto para o PETAR em 2010, que se encontra, desde aquele ano, sob análise no Conselho Estadual do Meio Ambiente do estado de São Paulo. O documento apresenta contradições internas no que tange à exploração dos recursos minerais. Com a aprovação da Lei Estadual 16.260/2016, que concede 25 unidades de conservação para a exploração da iniciativa privada, é necessário que não restem pontos obscuros no Plano de Manejo, para que fique claro quais são os recursos que poderão ou não serem explorados. Há indícios de que neste processo os interesses econômicos se sobrepuseram tanto ao objetivo de preservação da área como ao do desenvolvimento socioeconômico. Com essa problemática em foco, discutimos como a Geografia e as ciências, de maneira geral, podem ser úteis ao processo civilizatório ao estabelecer critérios éticos de forma objetiva, apontando assim, as causas dos problemas regionais relacionados à territorialização, as contradições políticas deste processo e de que forma seria possível promover o desenvolvimento socioambiental na região. Um dos principais problemas que levantamos foi a questão das restrições às atividades econômicas impostas pela legislação ambiental. Tendo o turismo como única fonte de sustento possível, a região se tornou altamente dependente dos programas de transferência de renda que, nos últimos anos, provaram ser cruciais para a redução da pobreza extrema e evolução dos índices de desenvolvimento humano. Uma vez que uma flexibilização muito grande das restrições ambientais seria desaconselhável e, levando em consideração que a área do parque é ocupada, historicamente, por populações tradicionais, como comunidades quilombolas, concluímos que seria razoável demandar do estado alguma compensação financeira. Esta medida evitaria que recaíssem, exclusivamente sobre a população local, os custos de uma conservação ambiental que é de interesse do conjunto da sociedade. / This research addressed the issue of the social and economic development of the Upper Ribeira State Tourist Park (PETAR), in the state of São Paulo, Brazil, from a geographic study conducted under the light of the analytical triad GTL: Geosystem, Territory and Landscape. Based on this geographical analysis, it was possible to identify how the potentialities and fragilities of the physical environment influenced the territorialization of the region where the park is today, and how the cultural landscape is built on this reality. Thus, it was possible to counter the interpretation of the data collected with the proposed Management Plan for PETAR in 2010, which has been under analysis by the State Environmental Council of the state of São Paulo since that year. The document presents internal contradictions regarding the exploitation of mineral resources. With the approval of State Law 16.260 / 2016, which grants 25 conservation units for the exploitation of the private initiative, it is necessary that there are no obscure points in the Management Plan so it is clear which resources may or may not be exploited. There are indications that, in this process, economic interests overshadowed both the objective of preserving the area and that of socioeconomic development. With this problematic in focus, we discuss how Geography and the sciences, in general, can be useful to the civilizational process by establishing objective ethical criteria, thus pointing to the causes of regional problems related to territorialization, the political contradictions of this process and how it would be possible to promote socio-environmental development in the region. One of the main problems raised is the issue of the restrictions on economic activities imposed by the environmental legislation. With tourism as the only possible source of income, the region has become highly dependent on income transfer programs which, in recent years, have proved to be crucial for the reduction of extreme poverty and the improvement of the human development indexes in the area. Since a significant relaxation of environmental restrictions would be inadvisable, and considering that the area of the park has historically been occupied by traditional populations such as quilombola communities, we have concluded that it would be reasonable to demand financial compensation from the state. This would prevent the local population from paying, alone, for the costs of an environmental conservation, that is in the best interest of society, as a whole.

The dissertation describes the current situation of Public Private Partnership (PPP), and then analyzes the development of this concept in the Czech Republic from 2004 to the present time, especially regarding to the implementation of Governmental policy in the field of Public Private Partnership declared in the key resolutions of the Government, institutional ensure and number and volume of the implemented projects. This dissertation also defines the main causes of failure of Public Private Partnership in the Czech Republic. Moreover, the thesis also includes a comparison of Public Private Partnership in the Czech Republic and in selected European countries (Slovakia, Croatia, Portugal) and formulation of the preconditions for successful implementation of Public Private Partnership in the Czech Republic in the future.

The subject of this diploma thesis is PPP projects in healthcare. The thesis is focused on assessment of relevance of PPP projects securing public services in the healthcare sector in the Czech Republic. It is intended to assess whether PPP projects are a suitable instrument for securing public services in the healthcare sector and if so, under what conditions and to what extent. The first part of this thesis inquires into the definition of public private partnership and PPP projects in a strict sense and describes individual types of PPP projects. Second part defines in more detail the legal and institutional framework for implementation of PPP projects and discusses the current status of PPP projects in the Czech Republic. Third part analyses in detail the assessment instruments for PPP and guidelines for such assessment concerning projects in healthcare. Fourth part is focused on analysis of implementation of PPP projects abroad and fifth part evaluates PPP projects in healthcare implemented in the Czech Republic. Sixth part reviews this actual experience and findings concerning PPP projects in healthcare. The conclusion summarises results of the assessment.

(English) The presented diploma thesis deals with the French concession connectors bien que, quoique, encore que, malgré que and certes-mais. The aim of the thesis was to describe their behaviour in French and to compare them with Czech. As the main classification criteria, we choose the position of the concédé and the asserté, and the finiteness of the concédé. By reason of technical arrangement of the corpus, the type of concession is described only marginally. The connectors were described on random samples from the parallel corpus Europarl. This corpus contains transcripts of the European Parliament's debates and was chosen due to the high content of argumentative structures. In the defined samples, bien que and certes-mais are very close in their function (most often is the government of finite concédés in anteposition). Another class consists of encore que and malgré que (commonly govern finite concédés in postposition). Quoique is aside, because it prefers on our samples non-finite concédés in postposition. And thus, the conjunction connectors, which are often referred to as synonymous, exhibit different behavior in terms of the factors described. More generally, the anteposition of concédés emphasizes the validity of the concessive implication, while its postposition stresses the concessive...

Purpose/aim The aim is to explore which price policy of the Chinese wind power is the most suitable for the market. Design/methodology/approach Data has been collected through questionnaires. The analysis includes the statistical test in form of chi-square. Additionally the whole thesis followed the onion process put forward by Saunders. Findings The analysis showed that the price policy which is based on the local price of coal is more suitable for the market than the price policy decided by concession projects. Originality/value An original idea is given the relationship between ages, education levels and two policies. Further, the empirical data is collected from a comprehensive online-forum, so that the samples are randomly selected. The data shows that the businesses which want to enter the Chinese wind power market should choose the price policy which is based on the local price of coal. This choice should be useful in the real life.

[pt] Este trabalho propõe um modelo de implementação de um leilão bidimensional para concessões de serviços públicos. O desenho do leilão é feito pelo governo através de uma regra de pontuação quase-linear que valora o preço cobrado e o tempo para iniciar a prestação de serviços. Este modelo aplica-se ao conjunto de serviços públicos que geram grandes benefícios quando começam a ser prestado em uma data limite reduzida. Os potenciais compradores possuem informação privada sobre seus custos de produção e redução do tempo. A regra de pontuação reduz a dimensionalidade dos lances tornando-os unidimensionais para os participantes, o maior lance resulta em uma obrigação contratual ao vencedor. O modelo auxilia na elaboração do design do leilão de forma a maximizar as preferências do governo dado o comportamento estratégico dos compradores. / [en] In this thesis we propose a model for a two-dimensional auction of public service concession agreements. The government design of the auction involves an almost linear scoring rule that evaluates the price charged and the time to start providing the services. The model applies to the public services that improve social welfare by reducing the delivery time of services. Suppliers have private information about their costs and time reduction offer. The proposed scoring rule of each supplier reduces the dimensionality of the bids submitted to a single dimension. The winner is committed to his bid and obliges to provide the required services. The model assists in preparing the design of the auction in order to maximize the preferences of the government given to the strategic behavior of buyers.

Many claim that, with regard to transportation infrastructure, only partnerships between public and private entities, which draw on the strengths of both, can achieve the goals of enhancing operational efficiency, increasing service delivery, improving asset maintenance, and stretching scarce federal, state, and local tax dollars. While some completed public-private partnership (P3) agreements on existing toll roads in the United States have seen a measure of success, others have raised critical questions pertaining to the true costs and benefits associated with these agreements for all stakeholders. Of particular concern is an apparent reliance on monetary calculations alone to determine toll road lump sum value. This primary focus on monetary considerations appears to neglect a number of non-monetary variables associated with potential costs and benefits. Four distinct groups of variables to consider in the decision process are presented in the dissertation: Monetary, Monetizable, Quantitative, and Qualitative. The last two groups represent variables of a non-monetary nature, which can reflect the much larger stewardship role that government plays in our society. The objectives of this research are twofold: to formulate a conceptual framework for a decision support system (DSS); and to propose an approach, including a set of analytical methods, that assesses the costs, benefits and other impacts associated with alternative P3 strategies. The primary user of the conceptual framework is identified as the public sector decision maker who has been asked to make recommendations regarding different strategies of toll road operation. Two analytical methods are presented. The first uses cash flow diagrams to calculate the net present value (NPV) for each of three core P3 strategies. The second, weighs the relative importance of quantitative and qualitative (non-monetizable) variables. When used as part of a sevenstep process, these two analytical methods help create a decision support system framework that provides stakeholders with a more complete analysis of the costs and benefits associated with the P3 toll road decision process.
