Este trabalho objetivou demonstrar o que é e quais os requisitos adotados pela doutrina e pela jurisprudência para que seja aplicado o instituto do agravamento do risco (previsto nos artigos 768 e 769 do Código Civil) nos contratos de seguro, e quais os seus efeitos jurídicos. Para tanto, examinou-se o contrato de seguro buscando revelar a dimensão coletiva que este tipo negocial possui por excelência, em detrimento de parte da doutrina ainda restrita a uma leitura atomística e individualista deste contrato. Partiu-se, ainda, da premissa de que a boa-fé (seja na sua acepção objetiva ou subjetiva) é qualificada no contrato de seguro, eis que este tipo contratual é todo sob ela estruturado. O princípio da boa-fé é uma via de mão dupla que cria deveres para ambas as partes, cujas declarações e comportamentos serão fundamentais para a delimitação do objeto do seguro e para o alcance da função social desse tipo contratual. A boa-fé estará, ainda, incisivamente presente e modelando a relação obrigacional do seguro em todas as fases contratuais: antes da conclusão do contrato, na apresentação da proposta do contrato; durante a relação obrigacional, nas declarações necessárias sobre eventuais alterações no risco (tais como o seu agravamento), e, ainda, na fase pós-contratual, sempre considerando a natureza comunitária do seguro. Passou-se, também, por algumas questões polêmicas envolvendo a utilização de determinadas cláusulas no seguro, tidas como contrárias à boa-fé, a exemplo da cláusula perfil, cuja validade deve ser avaliada no caso concreto, e possui íntima relação com o agravamento do risco. / The objective of this thesis is to list and explain the requisites adopted by both the doctrine and the jurisprudence for the application of the principle of risk aggravation (as prescribed in articles n. 768 and 769 of the Civil Code) to insurance contracts as well as its legal implications. Hence, the insurance contract was scrutinized in an attempt to discover the exact dimension that this business document has par excellence to the detriment of part of the doctrine still restricted to an isolated and individualistic reading of such a contract. Besides, it was assumed that good faith (be it seen from an objective or subjective perspective) is qualified in the insurance contract, for this type of contract is entirely grounded on it. The principle of good faith is a two-way relationship that gives rise to obligations for both parties, whose information and behaviour wil be essential to delimit the object of the insurance and to accomplish the social function of this sort of contractual instrument. Good faith will be incisively present and shaping the obligation based relation in all of the contract phases: before the conclusion of the contract, on the presentation of the contract proposal, during the business relation, in the necessary statements concerning eventual alterations in the risk (such as its aggravation), and, also, in the post-contractual phase, always taking into consideration the community nature of the insurance. Also examined were some polemical issues involving the use of certain clauses in the insurance contract, deemed contrary to good faith, such as the profile clause, whose validity has to be evaluated in concrete terms, and which bears close relation to the risk aggravation.

La sécrétion de mélatonine chez des patients atteints du syndrome d’impatience musculaire de l’éveil (SIME) débute approximativement 2 heures avant l’aggravation des symptômes en soirée (Michaud et al., 2004). Le but de ce projet était de préciser le rôle de la mélatonine dans l’augmentation de la sévérité des symptômes en soirée. Huit sujets atteints de SIME primaire ont été étudiés dans trois conditions : contrôle, avec administration de mélatonine, avec exposition à la lumière vive. La sévérité des symptômes a été évaluée par l’administration de tests d’immobilisation suggérée (TIS). Les résultats ont démontré une augmentation significative des mouvements périodiques des jambes durant l’éveil (MPJE) lorsque de la mélatonine avait été administrée comparativement à la condition contrôle et celle où les sujets étaient exposés à la lumière vive. La lumière vive n’a pas eu d’effet significatif sur les symptômes moteurs comparativement à la condition contrôle mais elle a amélioré significativement les symptômes sensoriels comparativement à la condition contrôle. Ainsi, bien que la mélatonine exogène ait un effet aggravant sur les symptômes moteurs du SIME, l’augmentation de la sécrétion endogène au cours de la soirée ne saurait expliquer à elle seule les variations de la sévérité des symptômes du SIME. / A close temporal relationship was shown between the onset of melatonin secretion at night and the worsening of restless legs syndrome (RLS) symptoms, suggesting that melatonin may play a role in the genesis of this phenomenon. Thus, we studied the effects of the administration of exogenous melatonin and the suppression of endogenous melatonin secretion by bright light exposure on the severity of RLS symptoms. Eight RLS subjects were studied in three conditions: at baseline, after administration of melatonin and during bright light exposure. The severity of RLS symptoms was assessed by the Suggested Immobilization Test (SIT), which allows quantification of both sensory and motor manifestations (SIT-PLM – periodic leg movements) of RLS. Analyses showed a significant increase of SIT-PLM index when subjects received exogenous melatonin compared to both baseline and bright light conditions, but bright light exposure had no effect on leg movements compared to the baseline condition. Analyses also revealed a small but significant decrease in sensory symptoms with bright light exposure compared to baseline. Although that exogenous melatonin may have a detrimental effect on motor symptoms, the augmentation of endogenous secretion during the evening is insufficient to explain the variations of the severity of the RLS symptoms.

Syftet med denna studie är att studera mediernas rapportering kring ett antal specifika händelser kopplade till SOS Alarm. Med vår undersökning avser vi att bidra till kunskapen om hur tidningarna Aftonbladet och Dagens Nyheter framställer SOS Alarm i sina nyhetspubliceringar. Mediernas rapportering är viktig att studera då mediebilden av SOS Alarm kan påverka allmänhetens förtroende för denna viktiga samhällsaktör. Detta är viktigt på grund av att den bild och på det vis som medierna framställer olika händelser påverkar människor, vår sociala och kulturella kontext, att se och uppfatta verkligheten vi lever i. Medierna utgör ett kraftfullt verktyg för människors åsikter, värderingar och påverkar människors beteende. Studien har använt sig av kvalitativ textanalys och inriktat sig på 43 tidningsartiklar från Aftonbladet och Dagens Nyheter. Med grunden i valda teorier diskuteras de resultat som undersökningen visar, med fokus på dramatisering. Vår slutsats är att båda tidningarna, men främst Aftonbladet har skapat en vinklad bild av olika händelser, genom sin frekventa användning av dramatisering i texterna. Vinklingen visade sig vara negativ, vilket beror på valet av ord och sammanhang som tidningarna gjort. / This study aims to study the media’s reporting on a number of specific events linked to the SOS Alarm. In our study, we wish to gain an insight into how the newspaper Aftonbladet and Dagens Nyheter presents SOS Alarm in their news releases. Media reporting is important to study because the media image of SOS Alarm can affect public confidence in this actor of society. This is important because the image and the way media produce different events affect people, our social and cultural context, to see and perceive the reality we live in. The media is a powerful tool for people’s options, values and affect people’s behavior. The study has used the method of quality content analysis and focused on 43 newspaper articles from Aftonbladet and Dagens Nyheter. With the foundation of the selected theories discussed the results that the investigation concludes with a focus on the dramatization. Our conclusion in the analysis of reporting on SOS Alarm is that both papers, but mainly Aftonbladet has created a biased and partially inaccurate picture of different events by the frequent use of dramatizations in the texts. The bias proved out to be negative, which depends on the choice of words and context in which the newspapers have done.

Due to the enactment of the 30076 Act, which modified the Peruvian Criminal Code, the author of this article analyses and explains the changes made in the article 46. With that purpose, he develops the meaning of the “circumstances”in criminal matters, and the reason for being of mitigation and aggravation.Furthermore, the author analyses in detail the eight generic mitigating circumstances that the modified article introduces (the age of the imputed, the voluntary reparation after committing the illicit act, the absence of a criminal record, among others), explaining them and realizing a comparison between what other criminal codes around the world, our old code and the new article 46 estipulate. / A raíz de la dación de la Ley 30076, que modifica el Código Penal, el autor del presente artículo analiza y explica los cambios realizados en el artículo 46.Para ello, desarrolla el significado de las “circunstancias” en el ámbito penal, así como el sentido de las atenuantes y agravantes.Asimismo, analiza detalladamente las ocho atenuantes genéricas que plantea el nuevo artículo (la edad del imputado, la reparación voluntaria luego de cometer el acto ilícito, la carencia de antecedentes penales, entre otros), explicándolasy realizando una comparación entre lo que estipulan diferentes códigos penales alrededor del mundo, nuestro código antiguo y nuestro nuevo artículo 46.

Le traitement juridique de l’évolution du risque tend à pallier le déséquilibre né de l’influence du temps sur le contrat d’assurance. Les règles applicables aux relations entre les parties elles-mêmes s’y attèlent en priorité en recherchant le rééquilibrage du contrat d’assurance. Cet équilibre est restauré automatiquement, lorsque l’évolution atteint l’assiette ou la valeur du risque. La prime et l’indemnité sont directement ajustées par rapport au risque. En revanche, si l’évolution, à la hausse comme à la baisse, affecte l’ampleur du risque entendu comme la probabilité et/ou l’intensité de sa réalisation, l’adaptation du contrat devra être négociée. C’est de l’attitude des parties que dépendra l’issue de ces négociations. Le contrat qui ne peut être adapté est anéanti afin de contenir les conséquences de l’évolution du risque. C’est ainsi que son annulation sanctionne l’assuré qui manifeste sa mauvaise foi à l’occasion de l’aggravation du risque. C’est que la couverture du risque aggravé sans adaptation des conditions de la garantie met à mal l’équilibre de la mutualité. En revanche, la caducité s’avère être la seule issue du contrat en cas de disparition totale du risque. L’assureur n’assumant plus aucune obligation, il en résulte la restitution prorata temporis de la prime pour la période non couverte.La remise en cause des obligations initialement convenues n’est pas toujours offerte aux parties. Les variations procédant de l’insécurité juridique ou affectant certains risques spécifiques à l’assurance de personnes ne se prêtent pas à la reconsidération du lien contractuel. L’inadaptabilité du contrat est alors absolue. Elle devient relative lorsque, comme c’est le cas en assurance de dommages, l’assureur perd, postérieurement à l’évolution, le droit d’invoquer ses prérogatives légales, alors même que le contrat aurait normalement pu être adapté. Face à l’impossibilité de remédier au plan contractuel aux conséquences de l’évolution du risque, il convient de rechercher le rétablissement de l’équilibre financier de l’opération d’assurance elle-même, tant dans l’intérêt de l’assureur que dans celui de la mutualité. Le droit des entreprises d’assurance est d’un grand secours, qui permet à l’assureur de faire face à ses engagements quand évolue le risque. Le provisionnement des variations de risque et le respect des exigences de solvabilité lui assurent, en toutes circonstances, la disponibilité des fonds suffisants pour garantir ses engagements vis-à-vis des assurés. Pour les sociétés à forme mutualiste, le rajustement des cotisations constitue, en outre, un atout majeur permettant d’équilibrer les cotisations des adhérents en fonction des charges de sinistre. / The legal treatment of the evolution of the risk tends to alleviate the imbalance arisen from the influence of time on the insurance contract. Rules related to party’s relationship try in priority to address this issue by looking for the restoration of a balance in the insurance contract. This balance is restored automatically when the evolution reaches the base or the value of the risk. The premium and the allowance are directly adjusted in relation to the risk. When the evolution, upward or downward, affects the scale of the risk, that is the probability or intensity of its occurrence, the adaptation of the contract will be negotiated. It is from the attitude of the parties that depends the issue of the negotiations. The contract which cannot be adapted is destroyed in order to contain the misdeeds of the evolution of the risk. That is the reason why its cancellation sanctioned the bad faith of the insured on the occasion of the worsening of the risk. This is because the coverage of the aggravated risk without adaptation of the conditions of the warranty puts in danger the balance of the mutuality. On the other hand, the sunsetting appears to be the only solution to the contract in case of total disappearance of the risk. The insurer not assuming anymore its obligations, this results on the refund prorata temporis of the advanced premium.The breach of contract is not always offered to the parties. Variations proceeding of the legal uncertainty and specific risks in the insurance of persons do not lend parties to the questioning of their relationship. The unsuitability of the contract is therefore absolute. It becomes relative when, in the case of insurance of damages, the insurer loses, subsequently to the evolution of risk, his right to invoke its legal prerogatives, although the contract could have normally been adapted. Giving that contractual impossibility to control the consequences of the evolution of the risk, it is necessary to reach the balance of the insurance technique of mutualizing, both in the interest of insurer and that of mutuality. Insurance company Law allows the insurer to meet its commitments when the risk evolves. The provisioning of all risk variations and the respect of the solvency requirements ensure, in any circumstance, the availability of sufficient funds to ensure its commitments towards policyholders. For mutual insurance companies, the adjustment of premium constitutes, in addition, a major asset to balance, at the end of a year, the contributions of their members on the basis of the charge of disaster.

Each year people are injured and even die in crowd related accidents, often during planned events. Recent studies have emphasized the need for using a systems approach to study these events. In this study the systems approach of resilience theory is combined with the crowd psychology-models Extended Social Identity Model and the Aggravation and Mitigation Model to examine event safety at a music festival, a domain previously largely unexplored by these perspectives. By using an ethnographic approach as well as interviewing visitors the study set out to answer questions about when and how the safety organization adjusted itself under conditions relating to crowds. Another goal was to study the social identity of the visitors as well as the interaction between the safety organization and the visitors at the festival to explain the presence or absence of crowd conflict. Using thematic analysis several situations were identified where the safety organization adjusted itself, as well as the strategies that the organization used in these different circumstances. It was also concluded that the absence of crowd conflict could best be explained by three factors. First of all, no history of crowd conflict existed between the safety organization and the visitors, secondly, there were no groups present with the goal of creating conflict, and thirdly, the social processes taking place between the safety organization and the visitors were all mitigating in nature. The mitigating nature of the social processes was partly attributable to the strategies identified for adjusting to crowd conditions.
