Esta dissertação examina em que medida as políticas nacionais para o controle do câncer no Brasil organizam o processo de trabalho na alta complexidade oncológica (ACO), por meio dos recursos humanos em saúde (RHS) oncologistas clínicos, radioterapeutas e físicos médicos vinculados às Redes Estaduais de ACO, a partir das definições estabelecidas pela Portaria SAS/MS N. 741/2005. Trata-se de um estudo de caso exploratório. Nele foi realizado um sucinto panorama da oncologia dentro da conjuntura histórica da saúde; apresentadas as três portarias ministeriais direcionadas ao controle câncer no País, e exemplificado, através de relato técnico e referencial teórico baseado nas três dimensões que permeiam os RHS propostas por Pierantoni: estrutural, gerencial e regulatória, de como aconteceu a divulgação das políticas para o controle do câncer no país, e os primeiros desenhos estaduais das redes de serviços de saúde de ACO. Algumas situações observadas sinalizam que, enquanto alguns dos instrumentos existentes na área da oncologia ainda são poucos utilizados pelos gestores no seu processo de planejamento e gestão, outros precisam ser aprimorados. O estudo de caso foi sobre a Rede de Atenção Oncológica do Município do Rio de Janeiro de 2008, composta por hospitais federais, estaduais, municipais, universitários e filantrópicos, todos na gestão municipal. No plano das análises destacam-se três elementos: a caracterização desses serviços de saúde; os parâmetros de cobertura assistencial e produção ambulatorial de quimioterapia e radioterapia e o número e carga horária dos RHS. O Cadastro Nacional de Estabelecimentos de Saúde do Departamento de Informação do SUS (DATASUS) e o Sistema de Informação Ambulatorial são utilizados como fontes de dados por representarem um banco de dados que podem contribuir para a gestão da área oncológica, ampliando, assim, sua utilidade para o SUS. Por fim, os achados possibilitam uma reflexão tanto pela ótica da gestão do trabalho quanto da gestão da educação em saúde, de como está se configurando a alta complexidade oncológica e quais os atuais limites e possibilidades para incluir o dimensionamento das categorias profissionais estudadas nos instrumentos normativos ministeriais. / This dissertation examines at which level the national policies for cancer control in Brazil organize the work process in oncological high complexity, through human resources in health (HRH) - clinical oncologists, radiotherapists and medical physicists - bound to the State oncological high complexity network, from the definitions established by the SAS/MS Order # 741/2005. It is an exploratory case study, which brings a brief overview of Oncology in the historical context of health. The three ministerial resolutions directed to the control of cancer in the country are presented and, through technical report and theoretical referential based on the three dimensions that permeate the HRH proposed by Pierantoni (structural, management and regulatory), exemplify how the dissemination of the cancer control policies in the country and the first State sketches of the oncological high complexity network came to be. Some situations encountered indicate that while some of the instruments in the area of oncology are still little used by the managers in their planning and management process, others need to be improved. The case study was on the Oncological Care Network in Rio de Janeiro 2008, composed of federal, state, municipal, university and philanthropic hospitals, all under municipal management. In terms of analysis, three elements stand out: the characterization of these health services, the parameters of care coverage and ambulatorial production of chemotherapy and radiotherapy and the number and workload hours of the human resources in health. The National Registry of Health Facilities of the SUS Information Department (DATASUS) and the Ambulatorial Information System are used as data sources, as they represent a data bank that may contribute to the management of the oncological area, this way widening its utility to the SUS. Finally, the findings allow a reflection from both the perspectives of work management and management education in health, on how is the oncological cancer care configuring itself and what are the actual limits and possibilities to have the dimensioning of the studied professional categories included in the ministerial normative instruments.

A transnational network of more than 50 million people, the Chinese diaspora stretches its reach across the globe. As part of their immigrant journeys, many Chinese immigrants have achieved political leadership in their adopted home countries despite monumental barriers. This thesis examines the political attainment of Chinese immigrants by uncovering how institutional factors such as political power sharing between ethnic groups, citizenship acquisition law, and discrimination law affect their pursuit of public office. I first establish a database of 265 politicians I define as Chinese immigrants, whose various levels of political attainment I then use as the dependent variable. Through empirical analysis, this thesis finds that politicians of Chinese descent attain lower levels of political office when institutional discrimination has targeted Chinese immigrants. In contrast, this thesis reveals that politicians of Chinese descent attain higher levels of political office when political power is shared amongst ethnic groups and when citizenship acquisition laws are exclusionary. While the last result is seemingly counterintuitive, the negative relationship between the inclusiveness of citizenship and political attainment can be explained by the intrinsic role exclusionary citizenship acquisition laws play in naturalizing citizens who are deemed to be integrated and electable.

Sveriges natur förknippas mer än något annat med skog. Två tredjedelar av landets drygt 40 miljoner hektar landareal täcks av skog. Av 27,1 miljoner hektar skogsmark (inklusive skyddad mark) är 23,3 miljoner hektar produktiv skogsmark. Andelen privata skogsägare uppgår till ca 330 000 personer och äger hälften av all skogsmark i Sverige samt levererar drygt 60 % av den totala råvaran till skogsindustrin. Skogsstyrelsens, och skogsvårdstyrelsernas, främsta roll har alltsedan bemyndigandet 1903 varit rådgivning till skogsägarna, ett viktigt styrmedel för att kunna förebygga lagingripanden och mildra lagstiftningen. I början av 1960-talet väcktes det diskussioner, som sedan dess har varit aktuella, om: att jordens resurser är ändliga och hur vi förvaltar dem. Det mest turbulenta årtiondet för svensk skogsvårdpolitik var 1970-talet och den tidiga miljörelaterade kritiken mot skogsbruket var inte underbyggd av forskning om miljötillståndet i skogen, utan skapades av en allmän opinion i samhället. Flertalet av de intervjuade skogsägarna uppgav att rådgivning varit viktiga vägledare för dem i deras skogsvårdsbeslut, även om det i enstaka fall fått negativa konsekvenser. Miljöhänsynens avtryck i den enskilda skogsägarens skogsvård följer i stort sett den historiska utvecklingen, det är dock inte entydigt om det i första hand berott på Skogsvårdsstyrelsens kampanjer och rådgivning. Resultatet visar att rådgivning i miljöhänsyn påverkar skogsägarnas beslut i sina val av beståndsåtgärder. Den viktigaste slutsatsen som kan dras av studien är att rådgivning, utbildning och kunskaper är de avgörande framgångsfaktorerna i det fortsatta miljövårdsarbetet. Större hänsyn till den enskilde skogsbrukarens äganderätt, erfarenheter och kännedom om sin mark är något som både myndigheter samt den allmänna opinionen bör iaktta och värdesätta. / About two-thirds of Swedens land area is covered by forest. Half of the total forest land is owned by private forest owners.The purpose of this study was to describe the decades before and after the environmental concerns became self-evident in Swedish forestry, and from a forest policy perspective elucidate the introduction of environmental concerns in forest management. Interviews with private forest owners and field studys was conducted to identify specific occurences of conservation that could be linked to advisory service from The National Board of Forestry since the 1970´s. The result shows that guidance, education and skills are crucial success factors for the continuence of conservation and sustainable forestry, but also greater consideration and respect for the private forest owners property rights, experiences and knowledge.
