This thesis focuses on the development of the Conservative Party's policy in respect of the form of the National Health Service in England between the general elections of 1964 and 1979. By form is meant the basic principles of the Service and the organisational arrangements (structure, management processes and financing) made to give effect to those principles. After an account of the form of the NHS in 1964, the thesis documents the development of Conservative Party policy on those aspects of form to which attention was given between 1964 and 1979. In doing so, it draws extensively on primary material, much of which (especially that relating to the Party's periods in Opposition) has not, as far as the author can discover, been brought together previously in an historical study. By examining this material in its appropriate context, it is hoped that the thesis makes intelligible a passage of history quite tightly circumscribed both in terms of subject and period. Insofar as an overall theme might be said to emerge, it is of a Party committed to the idea of a comprehensive health service, uncomfortable with the consequences of aspects of the form enacted in 1946 but, conscious of the popularity of the NHS, cautious about making radical changes.

No / The victory of former lieutenant colonel Hugo Chavez in the Venezuelan presidential elections of 1998 was criticized as a blow against the country's deep-seated democratic tradition. It is claimed that this simplistic argument fails to recognize the extent of democratic deterioration in the country and the limitations imposed by discredited political actors on a meaningful democratic reform process. The book aims to break new ground in providing unseen evidence of electoral fraud and offers a fresh perspective on the nature of democratic development.

Para muitas empresas o Supply Chain tem se tornado um fator crítico para ganhar vantagem competitiva nos mercados e um relevante alvo para a estratégia. Esta dissertação de mestrado teve por objetivo identificar a proposição estratégica e o delineamento da estrutura de processos utilizados na condução de um modelo integrado de gestão de Supply Chain e analisar as contribuições do modelo SCOR ao contexto da empresa estudada. A estratégia de pesquisa utilizada foi o estudo de caso de caráter exploratório em uma empresa que oportunizasse a geração de evidências a partir de seu modelo de gestão. Inicialmente foi realizada a pesquisa documental, a fim de identificar o contexto organizacional, elencando os eventos ocorridos, a organização dos processos que suportam o modelo integrado de gestão, e a motivação organizacional e estratégica que levaram à criação da função do Supply Chain. Através da análise de conteúdo em categorias que abordavam temas como estratégia, desempenho e modelo integrado de Supply Chain, identificou-se o alinhamento entre as estratégias e iniciativas do Supply Chain, as proposições de desempenho e o conceito de criação de valor do negócio, e o realinhamento da estrutura funcional num conceito integrado de processos suportados por práticas e uma visão estendida de atuação. Tendo como base a pesquisa documental e análise de conteúdo, foram recomendadas contribuições com base no SCOR ao modelo atual de gestão de Supply Chain da empresa estudada, visando colaborar na evolução do modelo integrado atual de gestão do Supply Chain. A utilização do SCOR para análise das operações de Supply Chain e modelo integrado de gestão se justifica por entender que não seria possível realizar os posicionamentos e contribuições acerca das operações do Supply Chain sem a utilização de um modelo conceitual e de processos como referência. Com o estudo de caso realizado foi possível identificar que o Supply Chain passou a ser visto de forma estratégica quando ocorreu o alinhamento da gestão do Supply Chain com os objetivos do negócio e a partir da definição do Supply Chain como uma competência essencial à competitividade da empresa, desenvolvendo uma organização de processos e estrutura que suportasse a estratégia proposta. / The level of importance given to processes under Supply Chain responsibility has increased in the last few years. For many companies the Supply Chain has become a critical factor when it comes to achieving competitive advantage in the markets and a rather relevant target for strategy. This master’s dissertation had the objective to identify the strategy proposition and the outline of the structure of processes used to build a Supply Chain integrated model of management as well as to analyze the contributions of the SCOR model towards the context of the researched company. The research strategy used herewith was an exploratory case study within a company that would provide the means for evidence from its management model. A documentary research was firstly carried out so as to identify the organizational context, listing the events that took place, the organization of the processes that support the integrated management model and the organizational and strategic motivation that led to the setup of the Supply Chain footprint. It was possible to identify the strategies and Supply Chain initiatives alignment through the analysis of content in categories that covered issues such as strategy, performance and integrated supply chain model, performance propositions and the concept of business value, and the realignment of the functional structure within an integrated concept of processes supported by practices and an extended vision of performance. Based on the documentary research and content analysis some contributions were recommended having the SCOR model applied to the current supply chain management model of the company analyzed, with the intention of collaborating with the improvement of the current integrated supply chain management model. The SCOR model analysis of Supply Chain operations and integrated management model is justified because it would not be possible to defend a position and offer contributions to Supply Chain operations without using a conceptual model or processes as reference. This case study allowed for the observation that Supply Chain started to be viewed in a strategic way when the Supply Chain management and business objectives alignment took place and from the definition of Supply Chain as an essential competence to the company’s market competition, developing an organization of processes and structure to support the proposed strategy.
