Mathematics textbooks are by far the most commonly used didactic tool in classroom teaching. Currently, there is very limited research into how teacher guides, accompanying these textbooks, support the teacher’s work in the classroom. The purpose of the study was to examine to what extent teacher guides support and guide teacher in teaching mathematics. Question raised by the study was – how are variation and concretization addressed in the teacher guides? Variation theory directs focus to critical aspects of the object of learning and can be used as basis to evaluate teacher guides. Concepts like variation and concretization have been useful tools when analysing the teacher guides. To support the study’s phenomenographical approach, a coding system was developed and used as a tool in analysis. Developing the coding system was critical in order to compare the four teacher guides, as well as for the reliability and validity of the study. Data were collected from four, first grade teacher guides in mathematics. An analysis covering an overall perspective has been performed. Several specific topics have also been analysed in a more inductive approach. The results indicate that teacher guides, anchored in the Swedish curricula in mathematics, do not support teachers in how to move from concrete learning to abstract learning. Critical details are being omitted which might affect the goal of abstract thinking.

That is because, despite the inherent gradualness of the process of concretization of the fundamental social rights, the Brazilian reality, marked by a picture of true chaos on public health routinely reported on the evening news, denatures the priority status constitutionally drew for the right to health, demonstrating, thus, that there is a clear deficit in this process, which must be corrected. This concern regarding the problem of the concretization of the social rights, in turn, is underlined when one speaks of the right to health, since such right, due to its intimate connection with the right to life and human dignity, ends up assuming a position of primacy among the social rights, presenting itself as an imperative right, since its perfect fruition becomes an essential condition for the potential enjoyment of the remaining social rights. From such premises, this paper aims to provide a proposal for the correction of this problem based upon the defense of an active role of the Judiciary in the concretization of the right to health as long as grounded to objective and solid parameters that come to correct, with legal certainty, the named deficit and to avoid the side effects and distortions that are currently beheld when the Judiciary intends to intervene in the matter. For that effect, emerges as flagship of this measure a proposition of an existential minimum specific to the right to health that, taking into account both the constitutionally priority points relating to this relevant right, as well as the very logic of the structuring of the Sistema ?nico de Sa?de - SUS inserted within the core of the public health policies developed in the country, comes to contribute to a judicialization of the subject more in alignment with the ideals outlined in the 1988 Constitution. Furthermore, in the same intent to seek a concretization of the right to health in harmony with the constitutional priority inherent to this material right, the research alerts to the need to undertake a restructuring in the form of organization of the Boards of Health in order to enforce the constitutional guideline of SUS community participation, as well as the importance of establishing a new culture budget in the country, with the Constitution as a compass, pass accurately portray a special prioritization directed constitutional social rights, especially the right to health / Se, por um lado, apenas com a Constitui??o Federal de 1988 o direito ? sa?de veio a receber tratamento de aut?ntico direito fundamental social; por outro, ? certo que, desde ent?o, o n?vel de concretiza??o alcan?ado quanto a tal direito retrata um descompasso entre a vontade constitucional e a vontade dos governantes. Isso porque, em que pese a inerente gradualidade do processo de efetiva??o dos direitos fundamentais sociais, a realidade brasileira, marcada por um quadro de verdadeiro caos na sa?de p?blica noticiado rotineiramente nos telejornais, desnatura o status priorit?rio desenhando constitucionalmente para o direito ? sa?de, demonstrando, desta maneira, que h? um claro d?ficit neste processo, o qual precisa ser corrigido. Essa preocupa??o quanto ? problem?tica da efetiva??o dos direitos sociais, por sua vez, ? refor?ada quando se fala em direito ? sa?de, pois tal direito, frente sua ?ntima liga??o com o direito ? vida e ? dignidade da pessoa humana, acaba assumindo uma posi??o de primazia dentre os direitos sociais, apresentando-se como um direito impreter?vel, visto que sua perfeita frui??o torna-se condi??o prec?pua para o potencial gozo dos demais direitos sociais. Partindo dessas premissas, o presente trabalho tem o intuito de fornecer uma proposta para a corre??o desta problem?tica, sobretudo, a partir da defesa de um papel ativo do Judici?rio na concretiza??o do direito ? sa?de desde que arraigado a par?metros objetivos e s?lidos que venham a corrigir, com seguran?a jur?dica, o d?ficit apontado e a evitar os efeitos colaterais e distor??es que s?o hodiernamente vislumbrados quando o Judici?rio se prop?e a intervir no tema. Para tanto, desponta como aspecto principal desta medida a proposi??o de um m?nimo existencial espec?fico para o direito ? sa?de que, levando em considera??o, tanto os pontos constitucionalmente priorit?rios referentes a este relevante direito, quanto ? pr?pria l?gica da estrutura??o do Sistema ?nico de Sa?de SUS inserta no seio das pol?ticas p?blicas em sa?de desenvolvidas no pa?s, venha a contribuir para uma judicializa??o do tema mais consent?nea com os ideais tra?ados na Constitui??o de 1988. No igual intuito de se buscar uma concretiza??o do direito ? sa?de harm?nica com a prioridade constitucional ?nsita a este relevante bem, a pesquisa alerta, tamb?m, para a necessidade de se empreender uma reestrutura??o na forma de organiza??o dos Conselhos de Sa?de de modo a se fazer valer a diretriz constitucional do SUS da participa??o da comunidade, bem como para a import?ncia da instaura??o de uma nova cultura or?ament?ria no pa?s que, tendo a Constitui??o como b?ssola, passe a retratar fielmente a especial prioriza??o constitucional direcionada aos direitos sociais, especialmente o direito ? sa?de

The fundamental premise, from which developed the thesis, is that understanding the characteristics of the good tutored is essential to the full exercise of guardianship. From there we sought to dogmatic bases in Law to allow an effective interdisciplinary dialogue. In Law, the foundation was the Structuring Theory of Friedrich Müller and his idea of the rules concretization. From this theory was possible to extract the structure of the legal norm, which is not given prior to the interpreter, is built in the case, from its normative program and its normative ambit. The text is only part of the process, does not contain in itself the normativity. There is no legal norm (and also environmental norm) previously defined. The choice of Ecology was not arbitrary in this context of dialogue, but enforcement of the normative ambit of environmental norm. From this discipline was possible to extract elements as the network pattern (or the interconnection) and cooperation. Only from the instant you properly understand the nature relationships, will be possible to realize the expected protection. These findings lead to the orderly operation of government, focused on joint efforts to safeguard the common good. These characteristics should reflect the pattern of action of the constituted authorities, in the moment of the environmental norm concretization, from maxims as coordination, cohesion and cooperation. It has been shown that the intensity and mode of influence of these elements will vary as the normative program requires the search for extra-legal elements to delimit the respective normative ambit. Escape of these elements leads to a risk of Constitutional symbolization. There is a practical reflection in the process of concretization, with impacts on the activity of all state powers involved (Legislative, Executive and Judiciary). Thus, there are impacts on the solution of concrete cases placed to the examination of the judiciary, but also in shaping and implementing public policies. It´s necessary to speak in a guideline for dealing with the environmental issues / O presente trabalho tem como objetivo buscar o sentido da Constituição Ecológica, definida como o conjunto de normas constitucionais voltadas à tutela do meio ambiente, a partir de um diálogo efetivo com as ciências naturais. A premissa fundamental, a partir da qual desenvolveuse a dissertação, é de que compreender as características do bem tutelado é essencial para o pleno exercício desta tutela. A partir daí buscou-se as bases dogmáticas no Direito a permitir um diálogo interdisciplinar efetivo. No Direito, o fundamento foi a Teoria Estruturante de Friedrich Müller e sua ideia de concretização das normas. A partir desta teoria foi possível extrair a estrutura da norma jurídica, que não é um dado prévio ao intérprete, constrói-se no caso concreto, a partir do seu programa normativo e seu âmbito normativo. O texto é apenas parte do processo, não contém em si a normatividade. Não existe norma jurídica (e também norma ambiental) definida previamente. A escolha da Ecologia não foi arbitrária neste contexto de diálogo, mas imposição do próprio âmbito normativo da norma ambiental. Desta disciplina foi possível extrair elementos como o padrão de redes (ou a interconexão) e a cooperação. Só a partir do instante em que se compreender adequadamente as relações da natureza, poder-se-á ter consciência da tutela esperada. Estas constatações levam a uma atuação ordenada dos poderes públicos, voltada à conjugação de esforços para salvaguardar um bem comum. Estas características devem refletir no padrão de ação dos poderes constituídos, no momento da concretização da norma ambiental, a partir de máximas como coordenação, coesão e cooperação. Mostrou-se que a intensidade e o modo de influência destes elementos variarão conforme o programa normativo requeira a busca de elementos extrajurídicos para delimitar o respectivo âmbito normativo. Fugir destes elementos leva a um risco de simbolização da Constituição. Há um reflexo prático no processo de concretização, com impactos na atividade de todos os Poderes estatais envolvidos (Legislativo, Executivo e Judiciário). Assim, há impactos na solução de casos concretos postos a exame do Judiciário, mas também na formatação e execução de políticas públicas. É necessário se falar em uma verdadeira diretriz de enfrentamento das questões ambientais

Omniprésente dans le discours juridique, la question de « l’application » ou de la« concrétisation » du droit n’est que rarement considérée comme un objet d’étude à partentière. C’est pourtant peu dire qu’elle recouvre un phénomène multiforme, sinon confus.Cette thèse vise à l’étudier en lui-même et pour lui-même, du point de vue du rapport deconcrétisation entre actes juridiques. Mais, tout en s’inscrivant dans son sillage, l’étudeentendra dépasser la représentation classique de ce rapport livrée par l’École normativiste, àtravers la célèbre théorie de la formation du droit par degrés et de la concrétisationcroissante des normes. Elle se propose de démontrer que le rapport de concrétisation entreactes juridiques, loin de la banalité à laquelle il est généralement associé, relève en réalitéd’une opération juridique bien plus complexe qu’il n’y parait. Cela se vérifie d’abord parl’identification de ce rapport : en soi, concrétiser un acte juridique ne signifie rien pour unautre acte juridique. Tout dépend du point de vue à partir duquel le problème est envisagé.Sous un angle conceptuel, il existe en effet plusieurs figures du rapport de concrétisationentre actes juridiques, tandis qu’appréhendé par le juge, ce même rapport fait l’objet d’untraitement contentieux. Cela se vérifie ensuite par l’analyse de la pratique du rapport deconcrétisation par les acteurs juridiques. Non seulement celle-ci n’a rien de neutre, mais elles’avère pour le moins déstabilisatrice, si ce n’est subversive, à l’égard de la hiérarchie desnormes et des organes. Alors même que sa raison d’être est de rendre compte de larationalité globale de notre système juridique, le rapport de concrétisation entre actesjuridiques aboutit ainsi à la mettre en cause. / Omnipresent in legal discourse, the issue of “application” or “concretization” of law is rarelyseen as an object of study in itself. Yet it is an understatement to say that it covers amultifaceted phenomenon, if not a confused one. This thesis aims to study it in itself and foritself, from the perspective of the relationship of concretization between legal acts. But, whileremaining in its wake, the study will go beyond the classic representation of this relationshipdelivered by the Normativist school, through the famous theory of the gradual construction ofthe law and the increasing realization of norms. It aims to demonstrate that the relationship ofconcretization between legal acts, far from the banality to which it is usually associated, isreally one of a much more complex legal transaction than it looks. This checks out first by theidentification of this relationship : in itself, concretizing a legal act means nothing to anotherlegal act. It all depends on the perspective from which the problem is considered. Under aconceptual perspective, indeed there are several cases in the relationship between legalacts. Examined by the judge, this same relationship is the subject of a contentious treatment.Subsequently it is confirmed by analysis of concretizational practice between the relationshipof legal representatives. Not only is the latter nothing neutral, but it proves to be at leastdisruptive, if not subversive, with regard to the hierarchy of norms and organs. Even thoughits purpose is to report on the overall rationality of our legal system, the relationship ofconcretization between legal acts puts it into question.

Para tanto, busca, na (des) construção da pré-compreensão dessa relação, delinear o modo como essa relação se desenvolveu até a completa autonomia entre direito material e processo, demonstrando que esse alheamento não foi superado. Analisa, em seguida, como o paradigma da modernidade, como era da técnica, se projeta nessa relação, transformando o direito material em produto do processo, em que a essência do direito material, o que ele é, não é considerada. Procura, a partir disso, buscar os elementos que levam à possibilidade de aniquilação do direito material pelo processo, em que o direito material não é o que ele é, mas o que diz dele o processo, o que só é possível porque a força do direito material ? a ação de direito material ? fora negada. Nesse contexto, o objetivo é demonstrar que a negação da ação de direito material subtrai as possibilidades/pressupostos do acontecer do direito material no processo. O desiderato final é fundamentar a tarefa hermenêutica da ação de direito material. O embasamento teórico está, no que concerne à defesa da ação de direito material, na doutrina de Pontes de Miranda e Ovídio Araújo Baptista da Silva. A leitura hermenêutica que se propõe busca, fundamentalmente, em Martin Heidegger e Hans-Georg Gadamer, as condições de possibilidade de desvelamento da ideologia que está à base da negação da ação de direito material e a projeção de uma visão autêntica da relação entre direito material e processo, em que a ação de direito material é a fonte de irradiação de efeitos e fala ao processo como o modo-de-ser do direito material. Por fim, projetam-se os efeitos desse novo modo-de-ver tal relação e de fazer direito sobre alguns dos institutos processuais mais discutidos do processo civil. / The present study deals with problems concerning the relation between substantive law and process, aiming at showing the denial, by the majority doctrine, of the action of the substantive law, considered mere slogan, is a great source of subtraction of the practical world, and therefore the infectivity of the process and the consequent non- concretization of the rights (pretensions) of substantive law, which depend on the process to be achieved. We aim at, in the (de)construction of the pre-comprehension of this relation, delineating how this relation has developed to the complete autonomy between the substantive law and process, showing this alienation has not been surpassed. Then, we analyze how the paradigm of modernity as the age of technique is projected in this relation, transforming the substantive law in the product of the process, in which the essence of the substantive law, what it really is, is not considered. We seek for elements which lead to the possibility of annihilation of the substantive law by the process, in which the substantive law is not what it is, but what the process tells it is. It is possible because the strength of the substantive law ? the action of substantive law has been denied. In this context, I aim at demonstrating the denial of the action of the substantive law subtracts the possibilities/presuppositions for the substantive law to take place in the process. The final desideratum is to fundament the hermeneutics task of the substantive law action. The theoretical basis is, concerning the substantive law action, in the doctrine of Pontes Miranda and Ovídio Araújo Baptista da Silva. The hermeneutics reading which is intended seeks, fundamentally, in Martin Heidegger and Hans-Georg Gadamer, the conditions of the possibility for unveiling the ideology which is the basis for the denial of the substantive law and the projection of an authentic view of the relation between the substantive law and process, in which the action of the substantive law is the source of irradiation of effects and tells to the process, like the mode of being of the substantive law. Finally, the effects of this new mode of viewing this relation and making law over some most discussed procedural institutes of the civil procedure is projected.

Por meio de uma exposição histórico-crítica a respeito do período ditatorial no Brasil, admite uma crise paradigmática vivida pelo Estado nos tempos contemporâneos, em grande parte advinda dos chamados anos de chumbo, na referência da importância do acesso à informação enquanto direito humano fundamental e a necessidade de respeito à Constituição Federal de 1988 e demais tratados e declarações internacionais pertinentes ao assunto.

The critical approach will be one philosophical following Hannah Arendt and Walter Benjamin observations in which relates the present politic state of obscurity of information regarding the country?s past. Judging the necessity to vouch for the broad public access of information related to the period as a means to the effectual of established constitutional rights. Establishing premises linked to Rights to Truth and Memory, limiting that the State of Exception in Brazil in the military dictatorship must be revised in levels which are social, psychological, historical, cultural and, mainly, legal.

[pt] A finalidade desta tese sobre o poder de polícia fiscal fazendário é propor um método de trabalho para a administração fazendária federal que atenda aos requisitos de legitimidade de suas decisões nos procedimentos fiscais, à vista das novas tarefas do estado constitucional contemporâneo brasileiro, fixadas pela CF88 no modelo de tributação estatal, o qual alterou o sistema de lançamento tributário federal. / [en] This thesis about fiscal taxation proceedings has the purpose to offer a work methodic for the brazilian federal tax administration, to attend legitimation requirements for taxation proceedings and the new state tasks fixed for the taxation in the brazilian constitution, that has changed the federal taxation system.

This thesis synthezises theories from intermedia studies, semiotics, Gestalt psychology, cognitive linguistics, cognitive psychology, cognitive poetics, reader response criticism, narratology and possible worlds-theories adjusted to literary studies. The aim is to provide a transdisciplinary explanatory model of the transaction between text and reader during the reading process resulting in the reader experiencing a mental, virtual world. Departing from Mitchells statement that all media are mixed media, this thesis points to Peirce’s tricotomies of different types of signs and to the relation between representamen (sign), object and interpretant, which states that the interpretant can be developed into a more complex sign, for example from a symbolic to an iconic sign. This is explained in cognitive science by the fact that our perceptions are multimodal. We can easily connect sounds and symbolic signs to images. Our brain is highly active in finding structures and patterns, matching them with structures already stored in memory. Cognitive semantics holds that such structures and schematic mental images form the basis for our understanding of concepts. In cognitive linguistics Lakoff and Johnsons theories of conceptual metaphors show that our bodily experiences are fundamental in thought and language, and that abstract thought is concretized by a metaphorical system grounded in our bodily, spatial experiences. Cognitive science has shown that we build situation models based on what the text describes. These mental models are simultaneously influenced by the reader’s personal world knowledge and earlier experiences. Reader response-theorists emphasize the number of gaps that a text leaves to the reader to fill in, using scripts. Eye tracking research reveals that people use mental imaging both when they are re-describing a previously seen picture and when their re-description is based purely on verbal information about a picture. Mental spaces are small conceptual packets constructed as we think and talk. A story is built up by a large number of such spaces and the viewpoint and focus changes constantly. There are numerous possible combinations and relations of mental spaces. For the reader it is important to separate them as well as to connect them. Mental spaces can also be blended. In their integration network model Fauconnier and Turner describe four types of blending, where the structures of the input spaces are blended in different ways. A similar act of separation and fusion is needed dealing with different diegetic levels and focalizations, the question of who tells and who sees in the text. Ryan uses possible worlds-theories from modal logic to describe fictional worlds as both possible and parallel worlds. While fictional worlds are comparable to possible worlds if seen as mental constructions created within our actual world, they must also be treated as parallel worlds, with their own actual, reference world from which their own logic stems. As readers we must recenter ourselves into this fictional world to be able to deal with states of affairs that are logically impossible in our own actual world. The principle of minimal departure states that during our recentering, we only make the adjustments necessary due to explicit statements in the text.
