Sendo assim, esta dissertação tem o objetivo de analisar como as teorias sistêmicas mais recentes desenvolvidas na química, a partir de Prigogine, e na biologia, conforme Maturana e Varela, podem contribuir para a abordagem institucionalista de Veblen. Para isso, apoiar-se-á na hipótese fornecida pela Teoria Geral dos Sistemas, de Bertalanffy (2006), no qual se refere que os princípios que regem um determinado sistema independem das particularidades de seus componentes mas do modo como estes se inter-relacionam. Assim, a convergência entre estas três teorias passa a ser válida uma vez que o tipo de sistema tratado em todas seja caracterizado por: 1) irreversibilidade da trajetória de suas mudanças, 2) com oposição à ideia de equilíbrio e 3) a introdução de uma abordagem evolucionária e com tempo histórico. Este trabalho se inicia a partir da introdução ao debate entre os paradigmas da mecânica e sistêmico surgido no ramo da física. Na sequência apresenta os referenciais teóricos do institucionalismo de Veblen e da teoria das estruturas dissipativas e autopoiese. Em seguida é feito a análise de convergência entre os arcabouços teóricos vistos, e verificado como as abordagens de Prigogine juntamente com a de Maturana e Varela podem contribuir para o estudo das instituições. Por fim é mostrado como a abordagem desenvolvida neste trabalho pode auxiliar no tratamento de questões relacionadas à economia, com ênfase dada especificamente no que tange a economia monetária. / The debate between the paradigms of mechanical and systemic has caused important revolutions in various fields of knowledge, especially in physics, chemistry and biology. Thus, this work aims to analyze how the most recent systemic theories developed in chemistry, from Prigogine, and biology, as Maturana and Varela, can contribute to the institutional approach of Veblen. For this, will be supporting the hypothesis provided by General Systems Theory of Bertalanffy (2006), which mentions that the principles governing a given system independent of the peculiarities of its components but how these interrelate . The convergence between these three theories becomes valid once the treaty system in all type is characterized by: 1) irreversibility of the trajectory of your changes, 2) with opposition to the idea of equilibrium and 3) the introduction of a evolutionary and historical time approach. This study starts from the introduction to the debate between the paradigms of mechanical and systemic emerged in the physics branch. Following presents the theoretical frameworks of institutionalism of Veblen and the theory of dissipative structures and autopoiesis. Next up is done the analysis of convergence between visas theoretical frameworks, and verified as the approaches of Prigogine along with Maturana and Varela can contribute to the study of institutions. Finally it is shown how the approach developed in this work can assist in addressing issues related to the economy, with emphasis specifically with respect to monetary economics.

This is a qualitative study that researches the definition and meaning of resilience in intimate relationships. A constructivist perspective guides the theoretical framework of this study and a systemic approach to intimate relationships provides a theoretical foundation. Apart from an extensive literature survey, three different sources of information were included in this study on relational resilience. Three family therapists were interviewed to gain some understanding of their experiences with couples in distress. Three participant couples examined visual stimuli (excerpts of couple interactions from five films) and discussed their responses and personal experiences in semi-structured interviews. The participants’ themes were analysed through thematic network analysis in order to explore their definitions of resilience in light of their own experiences. It was found that resilience in intimate relationships can be defined as the ability of the couple to endure adversity. It involves the relational capacity to adapt, grow, and recover from adversities and it includes relational processes that allow the couple as a system to rebound from shared difficulties and become more resourceful. / Psychology / M.A. (Clinical Psychology))

Its objective is to reflect about the teaching practices adopted in the undergraduate programs in technology offered by that institution. Reflection is conducted in the light of the guiding principles of action research, in one of its variants, known as Investigación-Acción (Carr e Kemmis,1988; MacTaggart, 1988; e Latorre 2003). The strategies of this variant are non-cartesian, and, therefore, better applicable to non-linear systems. The question of which pedagogical practices are most appropriate to the programs in technology offered by the institution, given the competencies and skills that the social and productive environment requires today, is the starting-point of this reflection. It is proposed, in answer to this question, that an analysis of the procedures adopted by the actors involved in the projects (students, professors and coordinators of different academic areas and disciplines) can, when guided by theoretical frameworks open to uncertainty, unveil the principles of a complex methodology that can be applied, with good results, to any programs of technology. The present study, based on the tools of action research and on the theoretical assumptions of the General Systems Theory (Bunge and Vieira), of the eco-systemic paradigm (Moraes) and of the theory of complex thought (Morin), has shown that project methodologies evolved from interdisciplinary projects (first phase) into integrating projects (second phase), and, presently, show a tendency to move into a third phase, still under construction, named bureau of integrating projects. The present phase has shown a significant increase in the organization and complexity, both of the institution offering the projects and of the methodology used, when and if open, non-linear systems are considered / Este trabalho enfoca a metodologia de projetos e, mais especificamente, os projetos integradores praticados pela Faculdade de Tecnologia Professor Luiz Rosa, Jundiaí, Estado de São Paulo, com a finalidade de reflexionar sobre as práticas docentes levadas a efeito nos cursos de graduação tecnológica ali oferecidos à luz dos princípios norteadores da pesquisa-ação, em uma de suas variantes, conhecida como Investigación-Acción (Carr e Kemmis,1988; MacTaggart, 1988; e Latorre 2003), cujas estratégias não cartesianas são mais adequadas à aplicação em sistemas não lineares. Partindo da indagação de quais práticas pedagógicas seriam mais apropriadas aos cursos tecnológicos oferecidos pela instituição face às habilidades e competências hoje requeridas pelos sistemas social e produtivo, considero que a análise dos procedimentos dos atores envolvidos nos projetos, ou seja, de alunos, coordenadores e professores de diferentes áreas e disciplinas, quando orientados por referenciais abertos à incerteza, pode desvelar princípios de uma metodologia complexa capaz de se aplicar a quaisquer cursos tecnológicos com bons resultados. O estudo se embasou nos instrumentais da pesquisa-ação e nos pressupostos teóricos da Teoria Geral de Sistemas (Bunge e Vieira), paradigma eco-sistêmico (Moraes) e pensamento complexo (Morin). A pesquisa até aqui mostra que a metodologia de projetos evoluiu de projetos interdisciplinares, em uma primeira etapa, para projetos integradores, em uma segunda etapa e, atualmente, para uma instância ainda em construção denominada escritório de projetos integradores, que caracterizaria uma terceira etapa da pesquisa-ação, demonstrando ter havido até a presente data um significativo aumento da organização e complexidade, seja da instituição ofertante, seja da metodologia, quando e se considerados sistemas não lineares abertos
