In this study the researcher attempted to determine the current role expectations of a clinic manager in a primary health care setting, to identify factors determining and influencing the role of a clinic manager, to determine what effect the current role expectations had on the management of primary health care services rendered at the clinic, to establish the developmental needs of clinic managers to enable them to adhere to their role expectations, and to identify and recommend measures to support clinic managers in the execution of their managerial role by addressing the identified deficiencies. The researcher selected a quantitative, exploratory, descriptive and contextual design. Clinic managers of fixed clinics in the Free State province were randomly selected to participate in the study and a questionnaire was utilised as data-collection instrument. The study found that the clinic manager's role is comprehensive and varies from telephonic booking patients to assessment of the quality of primary health care programmes. A number of non-managerial functions were identified, such as consultation of patients, management of medicine, dispensing of medicine and ordering of stock. It was also found that the respondents were not involved in a number of management functions such as financial and human resource management, and adherence to the implementation of standards. Factors that negatively influenced the clinic managers' management role included: * Lack of time due to the large number of patients they had to consult due to the shortage of staff. * Shortage of staff. * The execution of non-managerial tasks. Although it was found that the current role of the clinic manager was confusing as it entailed much more than just clinic management, it is foreseen that the role of the clinic manager could in future be clarified if the recommendations are implemented. / Health Studies / D.

Land Government in Bohemia in Relation to the Public between 1900-1908 Abstract At the beginning of the 20th century, the term Czech Kingdom referred to one of the crown lands forming the "West half" of the Habsburg monarchy, called Cisleithania. The Czech Kin- gdom was a public corporation which participated in implementing public administration. Its activities included mainly administrative tasks and to a limited extent also tasks related to exercising state power. The Czech Kingdom as a public body managed in the early years of the 20th century a very complex public agenda ranging from supervision and regulation of the subordinate self-governance bodies, significant activities related to public construction work, tasks related to education on the national level to tasks from the field of culture. Agricultural issues and tasks related to small scale business were of great importance. In 1890s, coalition of conservative nobility and Czech citizenship policy won a majority of parliamentary seats in the representative assembly of the Czech Kingdom. However, the coalition lost its position due to political changes in the civil bloc. The early years of the 20th century already saw long term escalation of the delicate Czech-German relations. This also impacted provincial politics in Bohemia. Despite complex...

Having in mind the contemporary question of urban social segregation, it specially examines matters of social classes and spatial distribution. Traditionally, Brazilian growth model has been characterized by the social exclusion of growing portions of the society, where a small portion of the population has access to the bulk of income and wealth, including proper housing, urban infrastructure and other basic services like education and health, whereas the great majority of the population is deprived from the access to those minimum basic needs. In this research, we followed two empirical studies that emphasize some aspects that seem particularly important for the understanding of its current trends and the problems affecting the quality of life, spatial segregation and social exclusion: Conjunto Nova Cidade, located in the north zone of Manaus and Condomínio Ponta Negra Village, located in the east zone of Manaus are models of how public intervention and a correct urban planning can materialize social power in the cities. The way the mechanisms of social control, over public investments, works in these areas, will be analyzed in order to verify how economic policies match with social objectives and the promotion of more concrete actions conducted by the Government in order to rearrange the city s urban space and spatial segregation inside Manaus City. / Este trabalho trata da segregação residencial na cidade de Manaus. Assim como nas demais cidades brasileiras, a construção do espaço urbano manauense caracteriza-se pela segregação residencial, polarizada pelas classes sociais. Na divisão social da cidade, as áreas consideradas nobres, onde há uma predominância da população de alto poder aquisitivo, verifica-se a existência dos equipamentos urbanos, enquanto que na periferia distante, onde há uma tendência à concentração dos segmentos de baixo poder aquisitivo, a autoprodução das moradias, senão, a única solução para o défcit habitacional, associada aos padrões mínimos de infra-estrutura urbana. Neste estudo, tomou-se como referência empírica dois empreendimentos residenciais que expressam a dinâmica da segregação residencial: o Conjunto Nova Cidade, situado na Zona Norte e o Condomínio Ponta Negra Village, situado na Zona Oeste da cidade de Manaus. Ambos materializam a espacialização do poder social nas cidades, combinada com a intervenção pública e a gestão do planejamento urbano pelo Estado. Nessa perspectiva, o eixo da abordagem trilhado propõe ir além da aparência estática do espaço construído. Pretende contemplar a dinâmica das relações sociais e a compreensão de que a produção do espaço urbano é um reflexo da sociedade, daí ser desigual e mutável. A forma como essas áreas residenciais foram concebidas pelos agentes sociais que fazem e refazem a cidade, revela por meio de estratégias e ações concretas, o marco jurídico que regula a segregação residencial, conduzido pelo poder estatal - protagonista principal, na (re)localização do espaço urbano e, sobretudo, das classes sociais na cidade.
