No. of bitstreams: 1 ROBERTO DE SOUSA MIRANDA - DISSERTAÇÃO PPGCS 2007..pdf: 11832627 bytes, checksum: a58dc11a31ad6913c6287b8fc5a16607 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2007-02-27 / Os estudos sobre a política de reforma agrária no Brasil e os processos de constituição dos assentamentos rurais têm dado pouca ênfase às dinâmicas institucionais como parte dos esforços das famílias assentadas em consolidar as áreas reformadas e viabilizarem-se enquanto agricultores familiares. Este trabalho analisa a relação entre a construção de arranjos institucionais, os processos de tomada de decisão e a superação dos dilemas da ação coletiva, adotando a noção de desempenho institucional, sob inspiração do neo-institucionalismo. Representa um esforço de reflexão, teoricamente fundamentado, sobre as dinâmicas institucionais constituintes dos assentamentos José Antônio Eufrosino e Osiel Pereira, localizados no semi-árido paraibano. A vida das famílias num assentamento implica na realização, cotidiana, de diferentes ações coordenadas e diversos momentos de tomada de decisão coletiva. Nos primeiros anos, principalmente, as demandas e as escolhas a serem feitas são significativamente grandes, e os custos sociais a elas relacionados normalmente altos. Nos assentamentos estudados, o desempenho institucional (qualidade da dinâmica institucional) foi avaliado com base em cinco diferentes campos de ação coletiva das famílias assentadas: 1) o parcelamento (definição do tamanho e localização dos lotes de cada família); 2) a elaboração do Plano de Desenvolvimento do Assentamento; 3) a regulação do uso e acesso aos recursos naturais apropriados coletivamente; 4) a organização e comercialização da produção; e 5) a execução do crédito para a construção das casas. O estudo mostra que o vácuo de instituições efetivas nos primeiros anos de criação dos assentamentos impede a resolução de conflitos e abre espaço para tomadas de decisão pouco participativas. Por outro lado, revela também que há um esforço de construção de instituições mais efetivas, propiciado pela aprendizagem e reformulação das instituições (principalmente formais) existentes, que abrem novas possibilidades para a ação coletiva nestas áreas. / Studies on Agrarian Reform Policies in Brazil and on processes of constitution of rural settlements have done a weak emphasis to institutional dynamics as part of the efforts that settled families have done in order to consolidate the occupied áreas and to make their living as family farmers. This dissertation analyses the relation among the building of constitution of institutional arrangements, some of make decision processes and the overwhelming of collective action dilemmas, adopting the notion of institutional performance, inspired in the neo-institutional perspective. This work represents a theoretical effort to reflect on institutional dynamics of two rural settlements, denominated José Antônio Eufrosino e Osiel Pereira, located in the Semi-Arid of Paraíba, Brazil. In those rural settlements, the institutional performance (the quality of institutional dynamics) was assessed taking as basis five collective action fields in which the settled families has acted: l)the slices resulted of the Land Reform (definition of size and localization of parts destined to each family); 2)The elaboration of Rural Settlement Development Plan; 3)the control of use and access to natural resources, collectively appropriated; 4) the organization an commercialization of the production; and 5) the offering of credit to be used in building houses. Our study shows that the vacuum of effective institutions in the beginnings of settlement makes difficult the conflicts management, opening space to make decision processes with low degree of the involved subjects participation. On the other side, it reveals as well that there is an effort to build more effective institutions, which open new possibilities of collective action in those áreas.

Estudo sobre resíduos sólidos em postos de combustíveis, funilarias e estabelecimentos de lavagem automotiva no município de São Carlos, visando indicadores de sustentabilidade / Study on solid wastes in gas stations, car body repair and painting shops and car wash establishments in São Carlos city, to compose sustainability indicators

Anne Alessandra Cardoso Neves 06 August 2010 (has links)
A presente pesquisa teve como objetivo levantar dados básicos para posterior composição de indicadores de sustentabilidade, em postos de combustíveis, funilarias e estabelecimentos de lavagem automotiva no município de São Carlos, tendo em vista a busca de soluções para questões sociais, ambientais e econômicas que garantam sustentabilidade nesses tipos de empresas. Foram feitas visitas com entrevistas e aplicação de questionários em cada estabelecimento, coletados resíduos sólidos industriais em quatro estabelecimentos de cada tipo de empresa e em seguida caracterizados esses resíduos. Para a classificação de resíduos foram feitos ensaios de lixiviação e solubilização. Os produtos mais utilizados nas empresas estudadas foram classificados como classe I-perigosos. Apesar disso, os resíduos coletados foram classificados como não perigosos, classe II A - não inertes, possivelmente devido à dissolução dos produtos perigosos. Com base no tratamento dos dados obtidos determinaram-se alguns indicadores que, por vezes, mostraram-se mais eficientes quando analisados em conjunto com outros. Ao se confrontar Indicadores de Consumo com Indicadores de Produção, por exemplo, pôde-se prever a dimensão de lucros e prejuízos sociais, financeiros e, sobretudo ambientais do empreendimento. Constatou-se a partir da análise de indicadores estudados que nas empresas em questão, existe falta de investimentos em pesquisas e tecnologias que garantam desenvolvimento sustentável das mesmas. Existe também carência de investimentos em capacitação de funcionários que busque melhorias na qualidade, no meio ambiente, sociais e na segurança dos trabalhadores, e assegure assim o desempenho sustentável das empresas em foco. / The aim of this research was to raise basic data for composition of Sustainability Indicators in gas stations, car body repair and painting shops and car wash establishments in São Carlos city, in order to find solutions to social, environmental and economical issues. This would ensure sustainability in these businesses. Visits were made with interviews and questionnaires application in each establishment, industrial solid wastes were collected in four establishments of each type of enterprise and then these wastes were characterized. The wastes classification was made by chemical tests. Most products used in studied enterprises were classified as class l-hazardous products. Nevertheless, the collected wastes were classified as non-hazardous waste, class II A- non inert, possibly due to the dissolution of hazardous products. Some indicators have been developed from processing of obtained data. Sometimes indicators proved more efficient when examined together with others. When Consumption Indicators are worked with Output Indicators, for example, the dimension of profits and losses from social, financial and above all environmental area can be provided to the venture. Indicators showed investment in researches and technologies, as well as in training for improvements in quality, environment, social and workers safety would ensure sustainable development in the enterprises.

A Town on Fire: The Copperfield Affair of 1914

Shepard, Daniel Joseph 03 September 2015 (has links)
In 1914, Copperfield, Oregon was militarily occupied by order of the governor, Oswald West. Its town government was deposed, the city officials were arrested, and the town's saloons were closed and all liquor and gambling devices were seized. The town, previous to Governor West's interdiction, had seen a breakdown into violence and arson between two competing saloon cliques. The resulting martial law of Copperfield and subsequent court battles between the governor and Copperfield's saloonkeepers would become known as the Copperfield Affair. The purpose of this study is to explain how and why the Copperfield Affair happened. The event which precipitated the Copperfield Affair was the collapse of the town's economy. Copperfield was a frontier town, which placed it at greater risk of economic failure. The failure of the two construction projects necessary for its economic success led to a violent contest for customers among the town's three saloons, resulting in several arsons, eventually drawing Governor West's attention to the town. The Temperance Movement in Oregon is a second factor influencing why the Copperfield Affair occurred. Governor West cared about the problems of a failed town in the middle of nowhere, because he was a proponent of prohibition and the violence in Copperfield presented an opportunity to make a statement for the Temperance Movement. Finally, Governor West relied on the concurrent evolution of two important definitions relevant to the state executive. One was the increasingly general definition of martial law and how it could be used by the governor. This definition, by 1914, allowed Governor West to legally occupy Copperfield. Second, the development of the Progressive Movement at the beginning of the twentieth century also coincided with greater public desire for a powerful and energetic executive in order to achieve reform. Governor West personified the Progressive executive, as a person who got things done and supported the sort of social reforms the Movement favored, like temperance. By combining the development of a powerful state executive, with great military powers, a governor and public in favor of prohibition, and a weak frontier town suffering violence from the liquor trade, we arrive at a situation which keenly encapsulates a moment in time in Oregon history, one in which a governor would use such extreme measures to crack down on what was a local squabble.

L'établissement distinct en droit du travail. / The separate establishment in labor law

Clément, Emmanuelle 09 December 2016 (has links)
L’établissement distinct est devenu un concept incontournable dans la vie des entreprises et une notion récurrente dans les textes légaux et la jurisprudence. Dans l’hypothèse la plus simple, l’entreprise n’est dotée que d’une seule unité de travail, constituée d’activités et de personnels réunis en un même lieu. L’entreprise et l’établissement unique se confondent alors. Mais dès lors qu’elle développe un effectif important et que sa structure complexe impose la mise en place d’une organisation adaptée, elle se démembre et se divise en établissements. L’établissement distinct devient alors un centre d’activité de l’entreprise géographiquement ou matériellement isolé. Le droit du travail tente de saisir l’établissement distinct dans de multiples dimensions et n’adopte pas la même approche selon l’utilité que sa reconnaissance peut apporter dans l’entreprise. L’objet de cette recherche est de saisir la multiplicité des réalités que recouvre l’établissement distinct et d’éclaircir la manière dont le législateur et les tribunaux tendent à l’optimiser en fonction du rôle qui lui est assigné. Concomitamment, il est question de vérifier l’opportunité d’opérer un recentrage des rapports du droit du travail au niveau de l’établissement plutôt qu’au niveau de l’entreprise et les conséquences qui en résultent. / The separate establishment has become an unavoidable concept in the life of the companies and a recurring notion in the legal texts and the jurisprudence. In the simplest case, the company has only one work unit, consisting of activities and personnel in one place. The enterprise and the single establishment are then merged. But since it develops a large workforce and its complex structure requires the establishment of a suitable organization, it is dismembered and divided into establishments. The separate establishment then becomes a center of activity of the company geographically or materially isolated. Labor law attempts to seize the distinct establishment in multiple dimensions and does not adopt the same approach depending on the utility that its recognition can bring to the company. The purpose of this research is to grasp the multiplicity of realities encompassed by the distinct institution and to clarify how the legislature and the courts tend to optimize it according to the role assigned to it. Concomitantly, it is a question of verifying the desirability of refocusing the relations of labor law at the level of the establishment rather than at the level of the enterprise and the resulting consequences.

The impact of nightclubs and restaurant bars noise pollution on the population of Melville, Johannesburg, South Africa

Mahapa, Tebogo Patience 11 1900 (has links)
Nightclubs and restaurant bars have become major sources of noise pollution particularly in areas close to residential dwellings. The purpose of this study was to investigate the impact of noise emanating from nightclubs and restaurant bars on the community of Melville, Johannesburg. This study followed both qualitative and quantitative research methods. A total of 100 respondents were randomly sampled within the study area. Qualitative data was collected using a structured questionnaire. A calibrated sound level meter was used to measure environmental noise levels at 10 different measuring points. The research finding revealed that about:  87% of noise levels measured with the sound level meter did not comply with officially acceptable levels of 40dB at night.  69% of respondents indicated that the main source of noise is pollution is nightclubs.  78% of respondents described noise as annoying, disturbing and unwanted.  57% of respondents indicated that members of their household have suffered from sleeping disorders due to noise activities at night disrupting their sleep patterns and resulting in irritability and fatigue. The noise measurements were taken on weekends and public holidays during the day from 10h00 to 14h30 and at night from 22h00 to 02h30. The research findings revealed that the residents of Melville experienced high level of noise at night with nightclub as major source of noise and as a result the majority of the sampled population complained about irritability, fatigue and sleeping disorders due to exposure to noise. The outcome of this research indicated the need of health education on the adverse effects of noise pollution and the need of sound insulation at places of entertainment. Implementation of a noise management policy is needed in order to effectively control and manage the noise pollution in its area of jurisdiction and regular noise level monitoring by constantly taking noise measurements by law enforcements officers. / Department of Environmental Sciences / M.
