Horizontality and Canada's Office of Critical Infrastructure Protection and Emergency Preparedness: a case studyRountree, Marina 08 September 2005 (has links)
This thesis provides a case study of the Government of Canada's former Office of Critical Infrastructure Protection and Emergency Preparedness (OCIPEP) through the lens of horizontal management (part of New Public Management theory). This study demonstrates that the effective use of horizontal management (horizontality) may reduce fragmentation occurring when the goal of critical infrastructure protection requires organizations to work cross-jurisdictionally and in partnerships. This need to collaborate is due to the ownership problem: over 85 per cent of Canada's critical infrastructure is owned by organizations other than the federal government.
Research methods include a background survey of literature on critical infrastructure protection, horizontal management and horizontality, and new public management; and interviews using a snowball sample of eight subjects who held various positions within OCIPEP to better understand what the organizational structure appeared to be from within the organization.
The research concludes that OCIPEP was not given the resources necessary to successfully fulfil its mandate. Results include the need for administrative and managerial support for horizontal endeavours, to encourage a "cultural context" of horizontality, as there are many organizational barriers to successfully using horizontality and collaborative methods. There were areas of success for OCIPEP, but more areas of weakness. Recommendations include additional study of the organization, a shift into a better-supported organization (which was accomplished with OCIPEP's inclusion into Public Safety and Emergency Preparedness Canada), and clear delineation of roles between the Government of Canada and the owners of the critical infrastructure. / October 2005

[en] IT WAS HIM AND IT WAS ME: GENDER AND HORIZONTALITY CROSSINGS IN NARRATIVES ABOUT A SECONDARY SCHOOL OCCUPY MOVEMENT / [pt] ERA ELE, E ERA EU: ATRAVESSAMENTOS ENTRE GÊNERO E HORIZONTALIDADE EM NARRATIVAS DE OCUPAÇÃO ESTUDANTIL SECUNDARISTADEBORA MURAMOTO ALVES DE CASTILHO 17 January 2019 (has links)
[pt] As ocupações de escolas estaduais de 2016 no Rio de Janeiro acenderam uma fagulha de resistência entre secundaristas. Partindo desse contexto, esta pesquisa se propõe a analisar, sob uma ótica local, como a horizontalidade, parâmetro central nas propostas dos movimentos de ocupação, se apresenta nas falas sobre o movimento dos jovens ocupantes. Examinaremos como sentidos e identidades se constroem em narrativas sobre a ocupação, focalizando como gênero e poder orientam tais construções. Adota-se a entrevista de pesquisa semiestruturada para a geração de dados e, para a análise, a perspectiva Sociointeracional e a Análise da Narrativa, situadas no paradigma qualitativo e interpretativista da pesquisa. A análise foca nas narrativas coconstruídas nas entrevistas, pois as compreende como um espaço de criação e negociação dos significados que transitam no âmbito macrossocial. Os resultados apontam para estratégias narrativas que procuram justificar discursivamente as interferências na horizontalidade, responsabilizando as circunstâncias por atitudes assimétricas dos participantes. Nota-se que o caráter generificado do discurso, relacionado com cenários onde o binarismo das categorias homem e mulher prevalece, ainda sustenta um lugar socialmente marcado. Em contrapartida, percebe-se que o letramento social da ocupação, que trouxe a horizontalidade como possibilidade normativa, gerou questionamentos que promoveram posturas agentivas, contrárias à lógica tradicional patriarcal. Por fim, esta dissertação levanta um debate crítico e multidisciplinar, que convida à reflexão sobre as possibilidades práticas de, no espaço escolar, se desconstruir paradigmas de gênero muitas vezes problemáticos e potencialmente limitantes para a realização subjetiva do eu. / [en] The occupy movement in Brazilian state schools, in Rio de Janeiro, 2016, ignited a spirit of resistance among secondary students. Starting from this context, the present study seeks to analyze, from a local perspective, how the concept of horizontality, a central parameter of such a movement, occurs in the participants’ speeches. I intend to examine the way meanings and identities are constructed in its narratives, focusing on how gender and power direct these discursive constructions. The in-depth interview is used here as a means for generating data. As for the analysis, the perspective of Interactional Sociolinguistics and Narrative Inquiry present in the qualitative and interpretative paradigm were applied. The analysis focuses on the coconstructed narratives emerged from the interviews, understood here as a space for construction and negotiation of meaning taking place in the macro social sphere. The results point to narrative strategies used to formulate discursive accounts, justifying actions that interfere in the horizontality, blaming the circumstances for asymmetrical actions taken by the participants. Also, gender aspects of speech related to scenarios where binary understandings of the categories men and women prevail, still sustain a rigid pattern ruled by society. Conversely, the space for social literacy provided by the occupy movement, together with the notion of horizontality as a normative possibility, generated questions that promoted a change in attitude in the students, contrary to the traditional patriarchal logics. Finally, this dissertation raises a critical and multidisciplinary debate, stimulating the reflection on practical possibilities for deconstruction of problematic gender paradigms in the school environment. Furthermore, it allows other forms of subject realization of the self.

Fronteira e horizontalidade na Amazonia: as cidades gêmeas de Tabatinga (Brasil) e Leticia (Colômbia) / Boundary and horizontality in the Amazon: the twin cities of Tabatinga (Brazil) and Leticia (Colombia)Euzebio, Emerson Flavio 28 February 2012 (has links)
As cidades situadas na fronteira ocidental da Amazônia constituem rica área a ser estudada. Nas últimas três décadas a estrutura urbana e populacional da Amazônia sofreu modificações significativas. A população urbana passou de 59% para 79% (IBGE, 2010). Nesse movimento destaca-se a centralidade que vem se desenvolvendo em torno das cidades gêmeas fronteiriças: Tabatinga (Brasil) e Leticia (Colômbia) situadas na tríplice fronteira Brasil, Colômbia e Peru. O objetivo da pesquisa é compreender a dinâmica territorial criada em torno do subespaço das cidades gêmeas Tabatinga-Leticia, partindo da análise da densidade de fixos, fluxos e normas, e do significado das horizontalidades presentes no subespaço. A pesquisa fundamenta-se com informações obtidas em fontes estatísticas brasileiras e colombianas e em trabalhos de campo, que incluem coleta de dados primários e secundários; entrevistas em órgão oficiais, instituições públicas e entidades privadas localizadas no subespaço. O inventário dos fixos, levantamento da densidade normativa e análise dos fluxos associado ao estudo da fomação sócioespacial das sociedades nacionais envolvidas nos permitiu compreender como a fluidez territorial e porosidade territorial têm contribuído para a consolidação de uma horizontalidade interurbana que tem se traduzido em uma melhoria das condições de vida da população e vem conformando uma centralidade regional. / The towns located in the occidental boundary of Amazon constitute a rich area to be studied. In the last three decades the population and urban structure in Amazon has suffered significant modifications. The urban population turned from 59% to 79% (IBGE, 2010). By this process is possible to highlight the concentration that is being developed in the surrounds of the twin cities of the frontier: Tabatinga (Brazil) and Leticia (Colombia) located at the triple frontier Brazil-Colombia-Peru. The goal of this research is to understand the territorial dynamic process created around the sub-space of the twin cities Tabatinga-Leticia, starting with the analysis of the density of infrastructures, flows and norms, and with information obtained from Brazilian and Colombian statistic sources and by fieldworks, which includes primary and secondary data collection; interviews in official organs, public institutions and private foundations located in the sub-space. The inventory of the infrastructures, collection of the normative density and the flows analysis associated to the studies of the social-spatial formation of the national societies involved has allowed the comprehension of how the territorial flowing and territorial porosity has contributed to the consolidation of an intercity horizontality, which has been brought to an improvement of life conditions and has been turned into a regional center.

Jeux de lecture, jeux de langage : l'ubiquité de la pensée wittgensteinienne ou l'horizontalité contre la verticalité. / Reading games, language-games : the ubiquity of Wittgenstein's thought - horizontality versus verticality.Laurent, Gilliane 31 May 2017 (has links)
Dans ses Remarques mêlées, Wittgenstein écrivait : « Qui enseigne aujourd’hui la philosophie ne choisit pas pour son élève une nourriture à son goût, mais celle qui est capable de changer son goût. »Et nous avons mauvais goût manifestement : notre palais n’est sensible qu’aux schèmes verticaux. Il n’affectionne que ce qui s’y apparente. Ce « nous » auquel nous nous référons n’englobe pas que les étudiants. Il désigne avant tout les professionnels de la philosophie, et ceux des sciences humaines. La cible de Wittgenstein, c’est finalement l’universitaire. Celui, du moins, qui en a adopté le langage et les codes, et qui, à travers eux conçoit ce qu’est un résultat et les moyens d’y parvenir.Adopter ce langage et ces codes en philosophie résulte d'un malentendu, d'une ambition qui ne peut que manquer ce qu'elle voudrait atteindre, car cette méthode ne lui est pas propre : elle se calque sur celle des sciences. Elle édifie quand elle devrait décrire, elle démontre quand elle devrait étaler.La philosophie ne devrait être qu’horizontalité. C’est là le « message wittgensteinien », nous semble-t-il. C’est en tout cas comme cela que nous nous permettons de le formuler. Il est présent en chaque point de son œuvre, de manière plus ou moins perceptible, il est vrai. La forme de celle-ci se déroule, se dessine peu à peu à partir de ce précepte. C’est la raison pour laquelle il n'est pas évident pour le lecteur de s’y retrouver. Rien ne lui est livré comme de coutume, dans les emballages desquels il est familier. Le message est distillé à chaque instant, par touches succinctes, peu importe le tableau. C’est en cela qu’on peut parler d’ubiquité de la pensée wittgensteinienne. / In Culture and Value, Wittgenstein wrote: ‘Someone who teaches philosophy nowadays gives his pupil foods, not because they are to his taste, but in order to change his taste.’We obviously have bad taste: our palate is only sensitive to vertical schema. It only likes what it is similar to it. This ‘us’ we refer to, does not only include students. It mostly designates the professionals of philosophy, and those from Human Sciences. Wittgenstein's aim is, after all, the academic. Or at least, the one who uses its language and its codes, and through them, knows what a result is and the means to reach it.Use this language and these codes in philosophy, is the result of a misunderstanding, of an ambition that is only able to miss what it wants to reach, because this method is not its own: it models itself on the scientific one. It edifies when it should be describing and demonstrates when it should be spreading.Philosophy should only be horizontality appears to be the ‘Wittgensteinian message’, it seems to us. We allow ourselves to express it as so anyway. We can find this message, in a more or less discernible way, that is true, all along his work. The shape of Wittgenstein's work appears bit by bit from this precept. This is the reason why it is not easy for the reader to find his way through. Nothing is given to him as usual, in the packages he is used to receive it. The message is disclosed, in every instant, by succinct touches, no matter the picture. We can therefore talk about the ubiquity of Wittgensteinian thought.

BODY AS SPACE : Space as a Transformative PlaceDeza Moreno, Alejandra January 2022 (has links)
The purpose of this research is to try to understand and be aware of what happens when space is transformed and the body becomes space. Space understood as the place where bodies and movement are situated or inhabit, commonly characterised as unlimited, continuous or three-dimensional, as well as, on the other hand, a limited surface with common purposes. The physical body understood as that with mass, energy and three-dimensionality, which does not distinguish between human and non-human, material and living. The manipulation of bodies as the action of manipulating with the hands, with other parts of the body or even with another instrument, is the idea of distorting reality, of transforming and transposing it. Through manipulation, or rather movement, space is changed and dialogues and stories are created. Since the concept of manipulation focuses on what the person wants to achieve, creating a hierarchy between bodies, and the concept of transformation can be understood as the exchange or dialogue between bodies, where everyone offers and receives, the term manipulation will be changed to transformation. Transforming space as a horizontal place where bodies and movement inhabit; understanding bodies as that human and non-human, material and living, and movement as the means by which they dialogue with each other and with space. The transformation of space as a leap from what has so far been known as the manipulation of objects, with the aim of understanding the relationship between bodies and space as a circus discipline through movement as dialogue. As an aerial harness dance artist working with suspension, distortion of reality and shifting perspectives between the vertical and horizontal plane, I seek to understand what happens to space when it is transformed through a series of methodologies and methods. The methodologies employed focus on the practice of circus and dance, spatial architecture, the art therapy and the adaptation of bodies as pedagogy. In terms of methods, there is a difference between those that already exist, such as the study of concepts and other projects, and others that emerge as a result of the research. The latter are new methods, concepts such as movement as dialogue, horizontality as a multidimensional space [the breaking down of boundaries between human - non-human and space – body], limitation and control as possibility, vulnerability as a potential, bodies as spaces; as well as pause, adaptation, installation and observation as means to understand the transformation of space and the body as space. Treat this study within the field of research of new materialism with the aim of developing the potential of interconnectedness, understood as that which reciprocally relates bodies occupying a space, and spaces occupying a body; the means of expression that arises between body and space; and the breaking down of barriers inside, such as between living and material bodies, space and body, or the human being and everything else; within the circus with the aim of transforming the space.

Aesthetic Spaces in Malory¡¦s Le Morte DarthurKuo, Ju-ping 05 February 2010 (has links)
The immense scope of Sir Thomas Malory¡¦s Le Morte Darthur has long kept daunting his readers. In terms of space, Malory includes both historical locations and imaginary and unnamed natural locales in his work. These places have different functions and therefore transmit different dimensions of spatial imagination. This dissertation examines three kinds of space¡Xwater as space, urban space and mystical space, and the aesthetic relations to these spaces in Le Morte Darthur. These named spaces and the selected locations in each category will be analyzed in the framework of microspace and macrospace, a structure proposed by Dick Harrison in conceptualizing medieval spatial experiences. Chapter one explores water as space. Some geographical sites, such as harbors, lakes, wells and rivers, and an imaginary space of Lancelot¡¦s tears as a qualitative concept are discussed in relation to the aquatic regenerative power. Particular interests are in how Malory accentuates differences which water exhibits in these sites and how water functions as a link to the past and to the future via language and spatial verticality. The second chapter moves to urban space, localized in specific places. This chapter aims to explicate how some medieval cities in Le Morte Darthur are consecrated or deconsecrated as a result of the city¡¦s association with distinct social and moral/immoral activities. The final chapter discusses mystical space. The places of sojourn of the Grail knights during their quest are marked by spatial verticality and horizontality, in proportion to each knight¡¦s moral worthiness. These locales form a preparatory path towards the space where the Grail vision and a divine message are ultimately revealed. An analogy between the interior space of the Grail and the extracosmic void space is drawn in order to convey the essence of the Grail in spatial terms. The progression from chapter one to three reflects a tendency from the physical to the mystical world of the human existence imagined in Malory¡¦s work. Moral dimension plays an important role in that it enables the transformation from microspace to macrospace in some instances.
The term ¡§aesthetic spaces¡¨ will include both microspace and macrospace, in which Malory employs real and imaginary sites to fulfill his aesthetic ideal. ¡§Aesthetic spaces,¡¨ when taken in a broader sense, will also apply to ¡§poetic space¡¨ when language results in the transference of space which characters experience. Three categories of texts will be employed in the discussion: literary, historical and theoretical texts. The first group includes Le Morte Darthur, some major medieval English romances and chronicles and the Old French prose Vulgate and Post-Vulgate Cycles; the second, fourteenth- and fifteenth-century philosophical, religious and historical documents; and the last, theories of medieval spatial thinking from Harrison and Mircea Eliade. Through comparisons of a number of passages in Le Morte Darthur and these two French versions, this writer attempts to show that Malory, as the first writer to incorporate the Grail narrative into Arthurian romance in England prior to the late fifteenth century, succeeds in presenting microspatial and macrospatial thinking in Le Morte Darthur.
