[pt] Essa Tese de Doutorado busca elencar diferentes aspectos formais e estruturais presentes em textos teóricos e obras artísticas sobre o tema da peste, para a partir dessa análise, formular uma possível chave de leitura para uma série de protestos e mobilizações sociais que ocorreram no mundo todo, entre os anos de 2011 e 2013, começando pela Revolução de Jasmim, na Tunísia e indo até as Jornadas de Junho, no Brasil. A questão do contágio, da indignação, assim como a dificuldade de identificação de um único programa político ou direcionamento partidário são alguns dos assuntos que atravessam as revoltas populares em questão. Levando em consideração o fato de que a pesquisa se estrutura a partir de uma abordagem estética dos protestos, as insurreições aparecem sob a ótica de trabalhos artísticos que fazem referência ao tema, como filmes, performances, espetáculos de teatro e dança, assim como ações estético-políticas que foram realizadas diretamente nas manifestações em questão. A escolha por intervenções estéticas se justifica pelo reconhecimento da diluição entre as fronteiras que separam arte e vida, criação e política. A rua é vista como uma espécie de palco da encenação urbana e os protestos, como movimentos que abalam de maneira direta a coreografia das grandes cidades. / [fr] Cette Thèse de Doctorat cherche à établir différents aspects formels et structurels présents dans des textes théoriques et dans des oeuvres artistiques autour du thème de la peste. L objectif est de formuler une possible clef de lecture pour une série de protestations et de mobilisations sociales qui se sont déroulées autour du monde entre les années 2011 et 2013, en commençant par la Révolution de Jasmin, en Tunisie, et en allant jusqu aux Journées de Juin au Brésil. La question du contagion, de l indignation et la difficulté d identification d un seul programme politique ou d une tendance de parti sont quelques-uns des sujets qui croisent les manifestations populaires en question. Si l on prend en considération le fait que cette recherche est structurée autour d une approche esthétique des protestations, les insurrections apparaissent sous l optique de travaux artistiques faisant référence au thème, tels des films, des performances, des spectacles de danse, des spectacles de théâtre et de danse, tout comme les actions esthético-politiques qui ont été réalisées directement lors des manifestations en question. Le choix pour ces interventions esthétiques se justifie à travers la reconnaissance de la dilution entre les frontières séparant l art et la vie, la création et la politique. La rue est vue comme une espèce de plateau pour les mises-en-scène urbaines, et les protestations comme des mouvements capables de secouer de manière directe la choréographie des grandes villes.

This thesis explores item response theory (IRT) in the Personal Profile Analysis (PPA) from Thomas International. The study contains two parts (Part 1 and Part II) for which two sample groups were collected. For Part I of the research 650 participants were collected via the old form (CPPA25/C7) in the Beijing office of Thomas International in China (male=323, Female=267, missing=60). Part II of the research used the amended form in the same area and collected a sample of 307 (male=185, female=119, missing=3). The study postulates that IRT methods are applicable to forced-choice psychometrics. The results of Part I showed that the current CPPA form functions, to some extent, according to PPA’s original constructs. Part I of the research identified 16 items that need to be amended (called Amend A in this research). The amended form was returned to China for the collection of samples for Part II, and the results are deemed acceptable. The study concludes with a research protocol for PPA-IRT research generated from the current research. The research protocol suggests four levels of analysis for forced choice (FC) psychometrics, namely: 1. Textual analysis, 2. Functional analysis, 3. Dynamic analysis, and 4. Construct analysis. / Psychology / M.A. (Psychology)

Iraq is a country of great cultural significance as it is where civilization first began. As a result of its lengthy occupation, it is virtually one large archaeological site. In spite of numerous warnings to the governments of both the United States and the United Kingdom, no efforts were made to protect the Iraqi National Museum in Baghdad when the American-led coalition unlawfully invaded Iraq. Indeed, orders were given not to interfere with the looting. During the occupation that followed, the United States failed to take steps to protect Iraqi cultural property. In terms of international law, it was obliged to protect Iraq’s cultural property. The United States also chose to exacerbate its unlawful conduct by occupying archaeological sites and damaging them further by illegal construction. As a result many significant sites have been irreparably damaged or destroyed. Their conduct was the result of complete indifference to the Iraqi cultural heritage. Although their actions render them iin breach of international law, it is unlikely that the United States will ever be prosecuted for its actions. / Biblical and Ancient Studies / M.A. (Ancient Near Eastern Studies)

Prior to 1994, citizenship was one of the pillars upon which the erstwhile government's policy of separate development rested. The concepts of citizenship and nationality were manipulated by the apartheid government to justify the denationalisation of black people and the creation of different classes of citizenship. Race, colour and language were the distinguishing features used to classify people into the different classes of citizenship. With the advent of the new constitutional order in 1994, common citizenship and the rights associated with it were restored to all South Africans. This discussion shows how in the post-1994 constitutional order citizenship has become an element of nation-building, while on the other hand it continues to perpetuate discrimination against non-citizens. The study aims to further the debate regarding the ill treatment of non-citizens with a view of influencing legislative and policy reform to replace the existing laws which are biased against no-citizens. / Law / LL.M.

Balancing the work and family domains is an ongoing concern for men and women in dual-earner relationships. However, most of the research studies that have explored work-family balance, have been conducted within the North American context using highly educated middle-class couples. Furthermore, no known South African studies have explored work-family balance experiences and strategies based on the couple as a unit. The aim of this study is therefore to understand how middle-class South African dual-earner couples experience and pursue work-family balance. A sample comprising ten multi-racial, middle-class, heterosexual dual-earner couples with children, who work in different employment sectors, and reside in Cape Town, South Africa, were selected purposefully through the use of convenience and snow-ball sampling techniques. The interpretive approach located within the qualitative paradigm was employed to understand the subjective experiences of couples through the method of semi-structured conjoint interviews. All conjoint interviews were audio-recorded and transcribed for later analysis. Patterns and themes within the data were identified using thematic analysis and later organised through the use of thematic networks. Two organising themes were uncovered for the global theme "subjective experiences of work-family balance amongst dual-earner couples", namely that work-family balance is a unique experience, and that work-family balance is a dynamic process. Furthermore, the data analysis revealed ten organising themes for the global theme "strategies dual-earner couples use to pursue a work-family balance", namely that striving towards an egalitarian marital relationship helps to promote couples' experience of work-family balance; proactively structuring opportunities for time with family contributes to a balanced work and family life; accessing familial and paid support promotes feelings of being successful in balancing work and family roles; shared planning and organisation facilitates a better balance of work and family roles; living within means relieves couples of unnecessary financial stress; creating opportunities for "alone time" supports couples' work-family balance; work validation and satisfaction encourages greater experiences ofwork-family balance; having the ability to control one's schedule ensures greater freedom to transition between work and family domains; setting boundaries around work and family domains helps couples maintain their balance; and relying on faith to cope with work and family stressors leads to a more balanced life. Each organising theme contained several basic themes which were discussed in relation to previous literature and/or research studies. / Psychology / M.A. (Psychology)

Projetos territoriais expressam intencionalidades, mais ou menos explicitadas pelos atores sociais, referentes às formas desejadas de apropriação do espaço e à definição das formas de acesso e usos dos recursos naturais a serem priorizados. Estes projetos informam padrões de distribuição do poder entre diferentes grupos sociais que mobilizam instituições para implementar modelos agropecuários, e que se esforçam para legitimar suas intencionalidades, ancoradas em objetivos sociais mais gerais, conseguindo assim a adesão ou a simpatia de um espectro mais amplo da sociedade, extrapolando inclusive as fronteiras regionais. O que se denomina de projeto territorial sojícola será confrontado a outros dois projetos territoriais que, entre 1977 e 2010, apresentaram graus variados de mobilização institucional: o projeto pecuário e o projeto agropecuário familiar. A avaliação dos diferentes graus de institucionalização e de legitimação dos projetos territoriais foi orientada pelo uso das escalas de fatores socioambientais: a local, a regional, a nacional e a global. A ecologia política complementa a noção de projetos territoriais porque possibilita a análise dos conflitos e dos processos de mudança ambiental relativos às reconversões produtivas vivenciadas no mundo rural, rejeitando a idéia de que a natureza é um ambiente neutro. O estudo dos conflitos socioambientais partiu da análise intensiva de casos históricos nos Gerais de Balsas, a fim de elucidar como os atores sociais em disputa estavam ligados entre si por modos específicos de dependência recíproca, pautados num equilíbrio móvel de tensões, que resultaram em processos de territorialização, compreendidos enquanto transformações nas formas de apropriação do espaço e seus recursos naturais, que são constantemente estruturadas, desestruturadas e reestruturadas pelas práticas dos grupos sociais e as relações de interdependência estabelecidas, que os ligam uns aos outros pelas redes de interesses referentes à figuração social. Propõe-se, assim, uma ecologia política figuracional, que parte da idéia de que mudanças ambientais e processos de territorialização são equivalentes, porque refletem transformações nas relações entre sociedade e natureza. A diferença é que o foco nas mudanças ambientais prioriza transformações ambientais provocadas pelas práticas dos atores sociais e os processos de territorialização, o entrelaçamento das práticas dos atores sociais e seus efeitos sobre o espaço. / Soybean expansion in the Southern Maranhao has been a process marked by contradictions, demonstrations and conflicts, apprehended by the analysis of disputes among different political strategies conducted by agricultural activities that articulate social actors and environments, which are called territorial projects. Territorial projects express intentionalities, more or less explained by social actors, referring to the desired forms of appropriation of space and to the definition of forms of access and uses of natural resources to be prioritized. These projects inform standards of distribution of power among different social groups that mobilize institutions to implement livestock models, and make effort to legitimize their intentionalities, anchored in broader social goals, thereby achieving the adhesion or sympathy from a wider spectrum of society, extrapolating even the regional boundaries. What is called territorial soybean project will be confronted with two other territorial projects that, between 1977 and 2010, showed varying degrees of institutional mobilization: the livestock project and the agricultural family project. The evaluation of different degrees of institutionalization and legitimation of territorial projects was guided by use of the scales of socio-environmental factors: the local, the regional, the national and the global. Political ecology complements the notion of territorial projects because it enables the analysis of conflicts and processes of environmental change related to the productive reconversion experienced in rural areas, rejecting the idea that nature is a neutral environment. The study of socio-environmental conflicts stemmed from the intensive analysis of historical cases at Gerais of Balsas in order to elucidate how social actors in dispute were bound together by specific modes of mutual dependence, interlined by a moving equilibrium of tensions, which resulted in territorialization processes, understood as transformations in the forms of appropriation of space and their natural resources, which are constantly structured, unstructured and restructured by the practices of social groups and the established interdependent relationships, that bind them to each other by networks of interests relating to social figuration. It is proposed therefore a figurational political ecology that assume the idea that environmental changes and territorialization processes are equivalent, because they reflect transformations in the relations between society and nature. The difference is that the focus on environmental changes prioritizes environmental transformations caused by the practices of social actors and the territorialization processes, the interweaving of practices of social actors and their effects on space.

Cette thèse s’inscrit de manière indirecte dans la problématique des risques psychosociaux. A la demande d’un groupe mondial de l’industrie électrique, nous sommes entré dans la question en renversant le problème. Nous avons étudié les instruments psychosociaux de la santé au travail chez les managers de proximité. Le développement du pouvoir d’agir protège la santé et la formation de nouveaux buts est un organisateur de ce développement. Nous avons donc cherché à comprendre et à expliquer comment de nouveaux buts se forment dans et par les dialogues entre pairs sur le travail. L’analyse de discours a permis d’identifier une opération langagière et deux opérations psychologiques qui concourent au renouvellement des buts d’action : la reprise de discours dans le discours, la différenciation des sources de but et l’institution de liaison entre les activités. Sur la base de ces résultats, nous définissons les conditions que les dialogues entre pairs doivent réunir pour être un instrument de la santé. / This thesis is a contribution to the field of psychosocial risks at work. It reports how, in order to respond to the command of an international corporation of electrics industry, we entered the question of psychosocial risk at work, and how we managed to reverse the question. We ‘ve been studying, in a team managers’ group, the psychosocial tools used in order to build and maintain health at work. in the perspective of Clinic of Activity, we know firstly that the development of « power to act » in activity protects and promotes health at work, and secondly that the creation of new goals is a medium of this development. That is why , in this research project, we aimed to understand the creation process of new goals in activity, and we studied this process in a specific frame : in and by the way of dialogues about work activity among professional peers. Discourse analysis permit to identify three different processes, a language process and two psychological ones, that all participate to a renew of goals. Those processes are : 1) a new iteration, in the discourse, of a verbal statement taken from another discourse ; 2) the differentiation of goal’s origins ; and 3) the elaboration of new links between activities. Those issues allows us to define some of the significant properties of dialogue as a tool for health promotion between peers at work.

This work was motivated by the fact that the area known as "Park of Cocó" not having adequate environmental management, since the State Park protected area was not created. There is only one polygon extracted from state decrees (n. 20.259/1989, 21.312/1991 and 22.587/1993), whose purpose was to declare certain areas as social interest so that after expropriated, were intended to create the park. Such decrees are not legally created the PA, since its purpose was only effecting the expropriation. Over the years the state expropriation decrees expired, foreclosures were not realized and protected area was not legally created. Meanwhile, there was a significant change in the urban context of the city of Fortaleza, and changes in the relevant legislation, which entails a necessary revision of the polygon that would be the " Park of Cocó". In this scenario, the study proposes criteria and requirements to be observed in the creation of a new category of protected area. Furthermore, the dissertation, based on environmental characterization and legal institutions incidents in the area (urban zoning, permanent preservation areas and marine land), proposes guidelines for the guidance of the boundary of a polygon that is technically feasible for the type of conservation unit applicable to the study area. The survey was conducted through literature review and documentary, interpretation and manipulation of cartographic vector files and field surveys. After analyzing the data, the paper proposes that the "basic area" of the future UC is defined based on the existence of the following legal institutions: areas of permanent preservation, marine lands areas and the most restrictive urban standards (ZPA 1 and ZRA) of the PDP-FOR/2009. The paper suggests that state of Ceará or the county of Fortaleza can create a legally adequate conservation unit and technically feasible through actions divided into five stages, which can be performed in sequence or in parallel. STAGE 0 corresponds to the preparatory phase, with review of cartographic vector files, lifting occupations and creating a type of compatible conservation unit. STAGE 1 would be the creation phase of UC with its "basic area" and should be expropriated the properties at ZPA 1 or ZRA that are not occupied or are occupied by public facilities (roads, squares and so on). STAGES 2 and 3 would be extensions of "basic research", by including areas that may give rise to relocation of people and the removal of occupations. When the properties are in marine lands, the Union may make use of free assignment of use for the creator entity of the UC (state of Ceará or the county of Fortaleza). And in STAGE 4 should integrate the management of protected areas in mosaic, covering the newly created UC and existing in its surroundings. / O rio Cocó e seu entorno possuem singular particularidade, já que correspondem a uma área de grande relevância ecológica encravada numa área urbana bastante adensada. O presente trabalho teve como motivação o fato da área conhecida como “Parque do Cocó” não possuir uma gestão ambiental adequada, já que a unidade de conservação Parque Estadual não foi criada. Tem-se apenas uma poligonal extraída de decretos estaduais (nºs 20.253/1989, 21.312/1991 e 22.587/1993), cuja finalidade era declarar determinadas áreas como de interesse social para que, após expropriadas, fossem destinadas à criação do parque. Tais decretos não criaram juridicamente a unidade de conservação, já que sua finalidade era apenas efetivar as desapropriações. Ao longo dos anos os decretos estaduais expropriatórios caducaram, as desapropriações não foram realizadas e a unidade de conservação não foi juridicamente criada. Nesse ínterim, houve significativa mudança no contexto urbano da cidade de Fortaleza, bem como alterações na legislação pertinente, o que enseja uma necessária revisão da poligonal do que viria a ser o “Parque do Cocó”. Nesse panorama, o estudo propõe critérios e requisitos a serem observados na criação de uma nova categoria de unidade de conservação. Além disso, a dissertação, como base na caracterização geoambiental e nos institutos jurídicos incidentes na área (zoneamento urbanístico, áreas de preservação permanente e terrenos de marinha), propõe diretrizes que servem de orientação a delimitação de uma poligonal que seja tecnicamente viável para o tipo de unidade de conservação aplicável à área de estudo. A pesquisa foi realizada por meio de revisão bibliográfica e documental, interpretação e manipulação de arquivos vetoriais cartográficos e levantamentos de campo. Após análise dos dados, o trabalho propõe que a “área básica” da futura UC seja definida com base na existência dos seguintes institutos jurídicos: áreas de preservação permanente, terrenos de marinha e as zonas do PDP-FOR/2009 com os parâmetros urbanísticos mais restritivos (ZPA 1 e ZRA). O trabalho sugere que o estado do Ceará ou o município de Fortaleza podem criar uma unidade de conservação juridicamente adequada e tecnicamente viável por meio de ações divididas em cinco etapas, as quais podem ser executadas em sequência ou paralelamente. A ETAPA 0 corresponde à fase preparatória, com revisão de arquivos vetoriais cartográficos, levantamento de ocupações e criação de uma modalidade de unidade de conservação compatível. A ETAPA 1 seria a fase de criação da UC com sua “área básica”, devendo ser desapropriados os imóveis situados em ZPA 1 ou em ZRA que não estejam ocupados ou que estejam ocupados por equipamentos públicos (vias, praças, etc). As ETAPAS 2 e 3 seriam ampliações da “área básica”, por meio da inclusão de áreas que poderão ensejar a realocação de pessoas e a remoção de ocupações. Quando os imóveis estiverem em terrenos de marinha, a União pode efetuar cessão de uso gratuita ao ente criador da UC (estado do Ceará ou o município de Fortaleza). E na ETAPA 4 deve-se integrar a gestão das UCs em mosaico, abrangendo a UC recém-criada e as já existentes no seu entorno.

This thesis deals with the training of workers with children and youth and the sight of employees with volunteer opportunities for their further education. The texts are logically arranged by topic. Firstly, it defines the terms used and then addresses the issue of qualifications for the job working with children and young people and according to the Law on Education Staff and National Occupations System. Out staff also work addresses the conditions of education volunteers working with children and youth. Shows what should have knowledge, skills and competence. Last but not least, the thesis briefly defines the relevant documents relating to the training of teachers and addresses the topic of institutions offering further education of teachers. In conclusion, we work validates knowledge in qualitative research with six respondents.

Tant pour la jurisprudence (constitutionnelle et administrative) que pour une partie de la doctrine, l’encadrement de la passation et de l’exécution des contrats administratifs de l’État et de ses établissements publics ainsi que des marchés des collectivités territoriales et de leurs établissements relève du domaine du règlement. Et ce, car à l’origine, l’association du droit de la commande publique aux matières relevant traditionnellement du pouvoir réglementaire autonome, telles que la procédure administrative non contentieuse et l’organisation des services publics est un fait établi. Pourtant, le désordre normatif dans les sources législatives et réglementaires du droit des contrats de la commande publique est largement dû à la place marquée du pouvoir réglementaire. Malgré la consolidation jurisprudentielle de cette dernière, des textes législatifs destinés à s’articuler avec les textes réglementaires se sont multipliés, accentuant la complexité de la matière. En général, le mouvement ascendant des sources du droit des contrats administratifs de la commande publique dans la hiérarchie des normes ces dernières années, y compris sa dimension communautaire, exige l’intervention préalable du législateur. De la sorte, la réorganisation des sources textuelles du droit des contrats de la commande publique s’impose avec la plus grande acuité par la ré-détermination des fondements constitutionnels des compétences normatives en la matière et, consécutivement, des rapports entre la loi et le règlement en faveur de la première dans l’encadrement du régime de la passation et d’exécution des contrats respectifs. L’unification du fondement constitutionnel de la compétence de la loi en matière contractuelle sur le fondement de l’article 34 qui attribue au législateur le soin de déterminer les principes fondamentaux des obligations civiles contribuera décisivement à la cohérence et à la systématisation des sources du droit de la commande publique. Une fois la compétence de la loi sauvegardée, le règlement se limitera à son rôle habituel, à savoir, un rôle secondaire et subordonné à l’égard de celle-ci. / According to the case law of the Constitutional Council and the administrative courts as well as to some public law theorists, the definition of the rules governing the award and the performance of Government administrative contracts, administrative contracts of State-depended public bodies and public contracts of local authorities falls within the scope of the regulatory powers of Government. More specifically it is argued that public procurement law is part of the rules governing the procedure of administrative decision making and the organisation of public services which are matters traditionally reserved to the autonomous regulatory power. The lack of coherence within the legislative and regulatory sources of public procurement law is mainly due to the predominant role of regulations. Despite the latter’s consolidation by the French courts, the growing number of legislative texts intended to build a coherent set of rules in this field has become a source of complexity. The transformation of the sources of the law of administrative contracts in the last few years – including the Community law dimension – requires the prior intervention of the Legislature. Therefore, the provisions governing the law of public procurement contracts should necessarily be restructured. This could be achieved through the redefinition of the constitutional basis of legislative and regulatory powers in the field of public contract law and consequently through a new balance between law and regulation with the intention of safeguarding the predominance of the former. Drafting the rules on the basis of Article 34 of the French Constitution which enables the Legislature to define the fundamental principles of civil obligations will clearly contribute to a more coherent and systematic approach regarding the sources of public procurement law.. Should the powers of the Legislature be safeguarded, the regulations will then be confined to their usual role, which is secondary and subordinate to Parliamentary Acts.
