In sharp contrast to the straightforward images of social justice that are so common on the consumer end of fair trade, the dissertation demonstrates that relations of fair trade production, distribution, and consumption are complicated by ideological disjunctures, by different experiences of work and labor, by unequal access to capital and political opportunity, by asymmetrical power, and ultimately by disparate concepts of economic justice. Organized as a commodity chain analysis, this dissertation is based on sixteen months of multi-sited, ethnographic research in Nicaragua, funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF), with four separate fair trade organizations: a faith-based NGO from North Carolina called the Center for Sustainable Development, a well-known Michigan-based fair trade retailer called Clean Clothes Organics, and two Nicaraguan producer organizations, including a women's industrial sewing cooperative (The Fair Trade Zone, which is the first worker-owned organization in the world to gain free trade zone customs certification), and an industrial cotton spinning plant called Genesis. The research shows that, from the standpoint of production and distribution, conflicts frequently emerge over the terms, conditions, and meanings of labor, business contracts, extra-contractual relations, participation in decision-making, and the definition of roles. Producers, moreover, often have no alternative but to accept the terms of more powerful groups under duress of poverty. Theoretically speaking, this dissertation contributes to an understanding of alternative economic formations, including fair trade and cooperatives. In this vein, I argue that the idea of fair trade as an "alternative" to conventional trade is a problematic rhetorical move that tends to obscure the fact that all aspects of trade--production, distribution, and consumption--are not only inherently political, they are also riven with the complications of mediating between disparate cultural meanings, social positionalities, and political, economic, and social inequality. I recommend revisioning the relationship between the economy, the state, and various spheres of society in light of the insights of substantivist economics, feminist political economy, and ethnography. / Committee in charge: Lynn Stephen, Chairperson, Anthropology; Philip Scher, Member, Anthropology; Aletta Biersack, Member, Anthropology; Lise Nelson, Outside Member, Geography

With the internet being more accessible and more faster than ever, online pornography have undergone tremendous change. The emergence of Web 2.0 brought porn tubes into existence, where enormous amounts of pornographic content were reached for free. At the same time, Web 2.0 enabled alternative pornographies to arise, ethical porn being one of them. Briefly described as pornographic content created ethically, ethical porn became an idea to gain increasing popularity. What was compelling about this idea was also the fact that consumers were required to pay for their porn. In academic circles, on the contrary, ethical pornography found itself a limited place. In awareness of this gap, this study aims at exploring the online ethical porn scene through two research questions: a) How do websites including pornographic content that claim to be ethical communicate such content? and b) “How do ethical porn websites present themselves in regards to the idea of ethical porn?”. Informed by Foucauldian discourse analysis, the research was conducted via performing structural mapping analysis and qualitative content analysis answering the two research questions, respectively. The findings inferred from the reviewed 33 ethical porn websites suggest that the communication of content is organized under the logics of fair-trade business model and that the sample of ethical porn websites are very diverse. In regards to websites’ self-positionings, the results show business model and production process to be the two emerging clusters feeding the discourse. The common trait found out was the difference of association with the ethical porn discourse. Both in terms of communication of content and websites’ own positions, websites either operated upon the logics of discourse or superficially gave an account of the discourse without revealing the actual practice of production. Contributing to the intersecting fields of digital media and pornography, the research creates a basis for future research on ethical porn, upon which very little is said.

The main aim of the diploma thesis "Fair Trade brand perception" is to analyze the perception of the Fair Trade brand by students from selected secondary schools and bachelor programs at the Faculty of Economics, University of South Bohemia in the Ceske Budejovice and evaluate the level of awareness of Fair Trade brand and expectations associated with it. The secondary objective is to formulate recommendations and proposals for the Faculty of Economics on the basis of own research.

The prosecution’s duty of disclosure is at the heart of an accused’s right to a fair trial. Information and knowledge is power. Owing to the nature of criminal investigation, the prosecution almost always has more time and resources at its disposal in order to prepare its case than the defence. More importantly, the prosecution has access to certain information that the defence would not have and it has the means to access them. As a consequence, in order to ensure the fundamental rights of the accused are respected, it is crucial for the prosecution to disclose any relevant material to the defence in a timely manner so that the latter has a chance to prepare its case adequately. Despite the undeniable importance of this duty, prosecutors routinely violate their obligations of disclosing material to the defence that is of vital importance for case preparations. This thesis, accordingly, asks the question: why are disclosure problems so hard to resolve? Is the disclosure framework really workable in the international criminal tribunals? Public institutions, like the International Criminal Court, are supposed to be the epitome of justice; however, because of its unique characteristics, and perhaps ironically, international criminal law proved to be an ever harsher environment for the defendant when it comes to disclosure of evidence: the accused faces more obstacles when preparing its case and the Courts’ motivation to sanction prosecutors who fail to honour disclosure duties seems to be significantly lower when compared with national jurisdictions. In particular, due to certain difficulties and challenges faced by the international criminal tribunals and international prosecution, it is often argued that the standard of fairness can be different from the ones guaranteed to the accused in domestic courts. This thesis argues that these departures are not justified. Three main areas will be examined and analysed: the context in which the international criminal tribunals operate in, the nature of the prosecutor’s role, and the attitudes of the judges.

O modelo, ou modelos, de organização da Economia Solidária nasceu, aproximadamente, ao mesmo tempo em que surgia o capitalismo industrial e foi reinventado na década de 1990, enquanto alternativa ideológica de afronta aos efeitos excludentes do capitalismo e/ou alternativa de política de emprego e renda à população mais pobre, desempregada ou subempregada, com a formação de iniciativas por parte da população excluída do mercado. Esta “reinvenção” ocorre majoritariamente sob orientação de organizações religiosas, sindicais, universitárias e ONG’s. Segundo a SENAES (Secretaria Nacional de Economia Solidária) (BRASIL, 2004b), considera-se Economia Solidária o conjunto de atividades econômicas com as seguintes características: cooperação, autogestão, viabilidade econômica e solidariedade. Em 2005, a secretaria identificou 14.954 empreendimentos econômicos solidários no Brasil, dos quais 85 em Porto Alegre. Para estudar a Economia Solidária, pela ótica econômica, não é suficiente a teoria econômica tradicional, pois é necessário: entender o surgimento e a sobrevivência de associações que encerram concomitantemente as lógicas econômica, política e social; considerar a relação entre ética e economia, com uma aproximação das duas, e entender esta relação tanto na busca de outros princípios de comportamento econômico quanto no entendimento dos juízos de valores feitos pelas pessoas ao adjetivarem um comércio de justo; entender o mercado como uma forma de alocação, dentre outras e que as outras formas de alocação permanecem, além de entender o mercado como uma formação social; entender como se formam os preços “justos” e porque um consumidor escolheria um produto de Economia Solidária, mesmo tendo que pagar um preço mais elevado. Foram realizados dois estudos de caso em Porto Alegre (RS, Brasil): nas feiras da Cooperativa Ecológica Coolméia e nas lojas da Etiqueta Popular. Por meio de entrevistas realizadas com produtores cooperados e com consumidores dos dois empreendimentos, buscou-se identificar se estes percebem os empreendimentos como mais do que uma alternativa de emprego, se os consumidores são conscientes de que compram uma relação de compromisso junto com os produtos e qual é o reflexo dos anteriores na formação dos preços. A análise qualitativa das entrevistas demonstra um grau de aderência com as teorias discutidas anteriormente, mas também demonstra que há ainda um longo caminho a ser percorrido, o que é percebido pelos produtores entrevistados. O fato da maioria dos produtores afirmarem que estavam em melhor situação sócio-econômica com sua participação nos empreendimentos e o fato de alguns consumidores parecerem conscientes com relação ao efeito de suas decisões de compra podem apontar a Economia Solidária como uma forma alternativa à economia capitalista. A dúvida que permanece diz respeito à dimensão desta Economia Solidária, ou seja, se ela conseguiria incluir toda a população excluída pela economia capitalista, sem deixar de gerar os benefícios encontrados até agora nestes empreendimentos e até mesmo os aumentando. Ademais, há dúvidas quanto à relação da Economia Solidária com a economia capitalista e com o governo. / The model, or models, of organization of the Solidarity Economy was born, approximately, at the same time as the industrial capitalism was being developed. It has, however, been reinvented in the 1990’s as an ideological alternative of confrontation to the excluding effects of the capitalism and/or as an alternative of employment and income policies to the poorest, unemployed or underemployed population. This was made by means of initiatives of the population excluded from the market, under the orientation of religious organizations, labor unions, universities and NGO’s. According to SENAES (National Office of Solidarity Economy) (BRASIL, 2004b), it is considered Solidarity Economy the ensemble of economic activities with the following characteristics: cooperation, self-management, economic feasibility and solidarity. In 2005, the Office identified 14.954 solidary enterprises in Brazil, among which 85 are located in Porto Alegre. To study the Solidarity Economy, from the economic point of view, the traditional economic theory is not suitable, because it is necessary to: understand the emergence and the survival of association that enclose, at the same time, the economic, social and political logics; consider the relationship between ethics and economics, and, also, understand both the search of other economic behavioral principles and the understanding of moral judgments made by people when qualifying a trade as fair; understand the market as one form of allocation among others, which also continue to exist, as well as understand that the market is a social construction; understand how the fair prices are formed and why a consumer would choose a product of Solidarity Economy, even if he has to pay a higher price for it. We have analyzed two cases of Porto Alegre, Brazil: the open markets of Cooperativa Ecológica Coolméia e the stores of Etiqueta Popular. The assessment was made by interviews with producers and consumers of both enterprises, as a means to identify if the producers view the undertaking as more than an employment alternative, if the consumers are conscious that they buy a commitment relationship along with the products, and what is the reflex of the answer of the two previous questions in their price formation. The qualitative analysis of the interviews has demonstrated a degree of adherence to the theories discussed before. Also, it has demonstrated that there is still a long way to go through, and that the producers have realized. The fact that the majority of the producers has affirmed that they were better off because of their participation and the fact that some consumers appeared to be conscious of the effect of their purchase decisions might indicate that the Solidarity Economy is an alternative to the capitalist economy. However, doubt still remains as to the size of this economy, that is, could it include all the population excluded by the capitalist economy, without overlooking the benefits generated until now, and even enlarging them? Besides, there are doubts as to the relationship of the Solidarity Economy with the capitalist economy and with the government.

abstract: Law and science are fundamental to the operation of racism in the United States. Law provides structure to maintain and enforce social hierarchies, while science ensures that these hierarchies are given the guise of truth. Biologists and geneticists have used race in physical sciences to justify social differences, while criminologists, sociologists, and other social scientists use race, and Blackness in particular, as an explain-all for criminality, poverty, or other conditions affecting racialized peoples. Social and physical sciences profoundly impact conceptualizations and constructions of race in society, while juridical bodies give racial science the force of law—placing legal benefits and criminal punishments into play. Yet, no formal rules govern the use of empirical data in opinions of the Supreme Court. My dissertation therefore studies the Court’s use of social scientific evidence in two key cases involving race and discrimination to identify what, if any, social scientific standards the Court has developed for its own analysis of scientific evidence. In so doing, I draw on Critical Race Theory (CRT) and Institutional Ethnography (IE) to develop a methodological framework for the study and use of social sciences in the law. Critical Race scholars generally argue that race is a social and legal construct and racism is endemic, and permanent, while Institutional Ethnography provides a social scientific method for rigorous study of the law by mapping and illuminating relationships of power manifested in social institutions that construct consciousness and place for marginalized groups in society. Combining methods of IE with epistemologies of CRT, I propose Critical Race Methodologies in the study of Fisher v. University of Texas at Austin and Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs v. The Inclusive Communities Project, Inc. These two cases from recent terms of the Supreme Court involve heavy use of social sciences in briefing and at oral argument, and both cases set standards for racial inclusiveness in Texas. Throughout this dissertation, I look at how law and social sciences co-construct racial meanings and racial power, and how law and social science understand and misunderstand one another in attempting to scientifically understand the role of race in the United States. / Dissertation/Thesis / Doctoral Dissertation Justice Studies 2017

Uma crítica que corrobora a não convergência entre o Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) e o International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) baseia-se na discordância quanto a mensuração a valor justo de alguns tipos de instrumentos financeiros, pois argumenta-se que essa prática pode aferir volatilidade aos resultados das empresas, o que impactaria o desempenho de suas ações no mercado de capitais. Assim, o presente trabalho propõe-se a verificar se a adoção das International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) no tocante a mensuração e reconhecimento dos instrumentos financeiros, mais especificamente para o grupo classificado em \"Ativos e Passivos Financeiros Mensurados a Valor Justo por meio do Resultado\", levou a uma maior volatilidade dos resultados contábeis. Para isso, optou-se por analisar o caso brasileiro, porque tal país passou pelo processo de Full Adoption das IFRS. Desse modo, adotou-se testes estatísticos que analisaram a diferença entre as variâncias dos lucros líquidos que consideram instrumentos financeiros avaliados a valor justo e a custo histórico amortizado, no período entre 2010 e 2016, das empresas brasileiras de capital aberto não financeiras e bancos com maior Presença em Bolsa. Após analisar o efeito dos ganhos e perdas não realizados, oriundos do ajuste a valor justo, de instrumentos financeiros sob o resultado, constatou-se uma tendência a suavização, redução da volatilidade, dos lucros líquidos, tanto para a amostra de empresas não-financeiras quanto para a de bancos, e não de aumento da volatilidade como era argumentado por alguns críticos a adoção do valor justo. Com base nas análises da amostra de empresas não-financeiras, o reconhecimento do ajuste a valor justo de instrumentos financeiros no resultado afetou significativamente a volatilidade do resultado contábil, contudo, segundo essas analises não se pode afirmar quanto ao efeito desse impacto, se houve propensão ao aumento da volatilidade ou a suavização dos lucros. Ao realizar as análises descritivas dessa amostra, observou-se um efeito de suavização na média, uma vez que o desvio-padrão do lucro líquido que considera instrumentos financeiros avaliados a valor justo apresentou uma média e um desvio-padrão inferiores ao do desvio-padrão do lucro líquido que os considera a custo histórico. Já as análises da amostra de bancos evidenciaram que o reconhecimento do ajuste a valor justo de instrumentos financeiros no resultado tendeu a reduzir significativamente a volatilidade, observando-se em média uma suavização do resultado contábil. Essa tendência a redução da volatilidade pode ser advinda de: gestões de risco responsáveis; uso de instrumentos financeiros, predominante, para fins de hedge; uma provável escassez do uso da classificação de \"instrumentos financeiros avaliados a valor justo por meio do resultado\"; ou, gestões que realizem escolhas do tipo \"cherry-pincking\". Inclusive, um dos modelos aplicados identificou, em ambas amostras, indícios da realização da prática de \"cherry-pincking\", um tipo de gerenciamento de resultado baseado em escolhas operacionais vantajosas e oportunistas que têm consequências na classificação contábil. Além disso, tal tendência a redução da volatilidade pode apresentar um impacto positivo na avaliação dessas empresas pelo mercado de capitais e por seus credores, já que tais usuários primários da informação contábil apresentam uma preferência por lucros consistentes ao longo do tempo, devido a sua aversão ao risco / One of the criticisms that supports the non-convergence between the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) and the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) is based on disagreement with the measurement at fair value of certain types of financial instruments, because it is argued that this practice can measure volatility to earnings, which would impact the performance of its shares in the capital market. Thus, this study aims to verify whether the adoption of standards International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) regarding the measurement and recognition of financial instruments, specifically for the group classified as \"Financial Asset or Financial Liability at Fair Value through Profit or Loss\" or \"Held for Trading\", caused greater volatility of earnings. For this, we chose to analyze the Brazilian case, because that country passed through the Full Adoption of IFRS process. Accordingly, it adopted statistical tests that analyzes the difference between the variances of the net incomes that consider financial instruments measured at fair value and amortized historical cost of Brazilian publicly traded non-financial companies and banks, with a greater Presence on the Stock Market, during the period between 2010 and 2016. After analyzing the effect of the unrealized gain and loss, resulting from the adjustment to fair value, of financial instruments recognized in net income, there was a tendency to income smoothing, reduce volatility, both for non-financial companies and for banks, rather than increased volatility as some critics argued the adoption of fair value. Based on the analysis of the non-financial companies sample, the recognition of the fair value adjustment of financial instruments in the result significantly affected the volatility of the accounting profit, however, according to these analyzes, it cannot be stated as to the effect of this impact, if there was a trend increasing volatility or smoothing profits. When conducting the descriptive analyzes of this sample, a smoothing effect was observed in the mean, since the standard deviation of the net profit that considers financial instruments evaluated at fair value presented a mean and a standard deviation lower than the standard deviation of the net profit that considers them at historical cost. The analysis of the banks sample showed that the recognition of the adjustment to fair value of financial instruments in the result tended to significantly reduce the volatility, observing, on average, a smoothing of the accounting profit. This trend to reduce volatility can be derived from: responsible risk management; use of financial instruments predominantly for hedge purposes; a probable shortfall in the use of the classification of \"financial instruments measured at fair value through profit or loss\"; or, cherry-pincking choices. In addition, one of the applied models identified, in both samples, indications of the practice of cherry-pincking, a type of result management based on advantageous and opportunistic operational choices that have consequences in accounting assignment. Furthermore, this trend of reducing volatilitymay have a positive impact on the valuation of these companies by the stock markets and by their creditors, since such primary users of accounting information show a preference for consistent profits over time due to their risk aversion

Syftet med denna studie är att undersöka på vilket sätt olika typer av ledarskap påverkar en arbetstagares psykosociala arbetsmiljö. För att besvara syftet och de fyra frågeställningarna kommer begreppen psykosocial arbetsmiljö med fokus på kommunikation, gemenskap, motivation och stress samt de tre ledarskapsstilarna transformell, transaktionell och laissez-faire att användas. En kvalitativ undersökning genomfördes på ett större företag och datamaterialet inhämtades genom semistrukturerade intervjuer med 6 respondenter. Datamaterialet analyserades med hjälp av tematisk analys. Det övergripande resultatet visar att den ledarskapsstil som har störst betydelse för en god psykosocial arbetsmiljö på denna arbetsplats är den transformella ledarskapsstilen. Resultatet visar även att det finns inslag av både den transaktionella ledarskapsstilen och laissez-faire ledarskapsstil men att detta har negativ påverkan på den psykosociala arbetsmiljön. Resultatet går också emot tidigare forskning som säger att ett ledarskap som både är uppgiftsorienterad och socio-emotionell är mest effektiv för den psykosociala arbetsmiljön.

Os planos de opções de ações vêm sendo, cada vez mais, utilizados como forma de remuneração de empregados no Brasil, principalmente por empresas de capital aberto, cujo número, também, cresceu nos últimos anos. A contabilização das despesas de remuneração decorrentes desses planos não era requerida no Brasil até 2007. Tal contabilização envolve a definição de elementos como conta de contrapartida, valor e momento de reconhecimento dessas despesas. O terceiro elemento, momento de reconhecimento das despesas, é definido como o período no qual a empresa recebeu os serviços, conforme as práticas contábeis internacionais e norte-americanas, e não é objeto de estudo deste trabalho. A definição dos outros dois elementos é discutida neste trabalho, considerando as diferenças existentes entre as despesas calculadas com base no valor justo das opções na data da outorga e as despesas calculadas com base no valor justo das opções em cada data-base até a data de seu exercício. Essas diferenças decorrem da classificação dos planos no Patrimônio Líquido ou no Passivo, respectivamente. O benefício recebido pelo empregado no momento do exercício, que é o mesmo independente de sua classificação contábil, não deveria ser igual ao valor contabilizado, independente da classificação do Plano? Tanto o IASB quanto o FASB estipulam que os planos com liquidação pela entrega de ações, a princípio, deveriam ser classificados no Patrimônio Líquido e contabilizados pelo valor justo calculado na data da outorga e que os planos com liquidação em dinheiro, a princípio, deveriam ser classificados no Passivo e contabilizados pelo valor justo atualizado. Esta pesquisa, mediante estudo de caso das empresas cujas ações fazem parte do Ibovespa, discute os impactos decorrentes da classificação desses planos como instrumento de patrimônio e do consequente registro do valor justo calculado na data da outorga versus o valor justo atualizado a cada data de Balanço, como é adotado, atualmente, para os planos classificados no Passivo, tendo o objetivo de responder à seguinte questão: Qual dessas formas de contabilização mais se aproxima da realidade econômica da transação? Os resultados apresentados demonstram que os planos classificados no Passivo representam valores mais próximos dos valores dos benefícios recebidos pelos empregados do que os planos classificados no Patrimônio Líquido, cujos valores justos foram calculados na data da outorga dos planos, resultando, consequentemente, em divulgação mais relevante para o usuário das informações contábeis. / More and more, the stock options plans are being used as a way of remunerating employee in Brazil, most of all by the public companies, whose numbers have been growing in the last years. The recognition of the compensation costs was not required in Brazil until 2007. The accounting of these compensation costs involves the definition of elements as the contra entry, value and moment of recognizing these expenses. The third element, moment of recognizing these expenses, is defined as the period where the company receives the services, according to IFRS and US GAAP, and is not in the scope of this work. The definition of the other two elements, although, are discussed in this work, considering the differences between the expenses calculated based on the fair value at the grant date and the expenses calculated based on the fair value at each reporting date. These differences are due to classification of the plan as an element of Equity or Liability, respectively. The gain that the employee perceives at the date of exercise of the option, that is the same independent of the classification of the plan in the Balance Sheet, shouldnt be the same as the accounted value at this date? IASB and FASB agree that awards with settlement in shares should be classified in Equity and accounted for based on the fair value calculated at the grant date, and that awards with cash settlement should be classified in Liabilities and accounted for based in the fair value at each reporting date until the exercise of the options. This work discuss the impacts of the classification of these plans as equity instruments and the consequent recognition of the fair value calculated at the grant date versus the fair value calculated at each reporting date, as adopted for the plans classified in Liability, with the objective of responding the following question: Which of these ways of accounting is nearer the economic reality of the transaction?. The results show that the plans classified in Liability better represent the value of the benefits received by the employees than the plans classified in Equity, with corresponding values calculated at grant date, resulting, consequently, in more relevant information to the users.

Initilly, a study was conducted with documentary bases and agricultural censos seeking to characterize the situation and the social economic and agri-environment of the municipality. The results of the research allow to understand the local rural landscape, regarding to historical, geographical and agricultural aspects. Then, a group of family farmers from the cooperative was interviewed, orally, where the trajectory of the farmes and the process that led to adherence to fair trade were reconstructed, qualifying these changes, seeking to understand the reasons of the transition and the meaning of this experience, of social cultural or economics terms. Among the main results, it was found that the certification Fair Trade provided improvements in the production field environmentally sustainable. The fair condition of production and commercialization is causing dissatisfaction between the producers who claims that the price received at the present moment is not advantegeous due to the appreciation of the real against the dollar making foreign prices reduce in relation to internal prices, the minimum prices should be reviewed by the importers and by the chain of the fair trade. / O presente trabalho se propõe a sistematizar a experiência de Comércio Justo desenvolvido por famílias de agricultores associados à Cooperativa dos Agricultores Familiares de Poço Fundo e Região (Coopfam) e compreender os obstáculos e potencialidades do modelo de transição para a agricultura de base ecológica. Primeiramente, realizou-se um estudo com base documental e no censo agropecuário, buscando caracterizar a situação e o contexto social econômico e agroambiental do município. Os resultados da pesquisa permitem entender a paisagem rural local, no que diz respeito aos aspectos históricos, geográficos e agrícolas da localidade. Em seguida, foi entrevistado um conjunto de produtores familiares da cooperativa, por meio de entrevistas orais, em que se reconstruiu a trajetória dos agricultores e o processo que os levou à adesão ao comércio justo, qualificando-se essas mudanças, buscando entender as razões da transição e o significado dessa experiência prática, em termos de valores socioculturais ou econômicos. Dentre os principais resultados, verificou-se que a certificação Fair Trade proporcionou melhorias no campo da produção ambientalmente sustentável. A condição justa de produção e comercialização está sendo motivo de insatisfação entre os produtores que alegam que o preço recebido, no presente momento, não é vantajoso devido à valorização do real frente ao dólar, fazendo com que os preços externos sofram uma redução em relação aos internos. O preço mínimo deveria ser revisto por parte dos importadores e pela cadeia do comércio justo.
