In this thesis I will deal with the comparison of Plato´s vision of the ideal state presented in his work Constitution to negative utopias in the 20th century. I will seek common invariants occuring in all presented works by using method of structural analysis formulated by Claude Lévi-Strauss. The subjects of my analysis are books Constitution, We, Brave New World, 1984 and movies Metropolis, Matrix and Equilibrium. In the end I will present my hypothesis that there is another invariant fact that all negative utopias are based on raising the economic character of a man in order to maximize effect of his work. This is done by suppression and destruction of John Dewey´s concept of an experience.

O Vale do Jequitinhonha ? conhecido por ter sido uma regi?o de ativa transmiss?o da DCh, nos per?odos iniciais do controle. A pobreza e a falta de informa??o das popula??es residentes ? ?poca, associado ?s m?s condi??es das edifica??es, propiciavam condi??es para a manuten??o de popula??es de triatom?neos no ambiente domiciliar. O presente estudo objetivou identificar, analisar e desvelar a atividade de trabalho de agentes e gestores que atuaram no controle vetorial da DCh na regi?o do Vale do Jequitinhonha entre as d?cadas de 50 e 90 do s?culo XX, como enxergavam o Programa e o modo que eram recebidos pela popula??o em um contexto de controle vetorial verticalizado. O material de an?lise foi obtido pela realiza??o de entrevistas com agentes e gestores que atuaram na regi?o no per?odo proposto, com grava??o em ?udio, transcri??o e posterior an?lise pela t?cnica de an?lise de conte?do. Foi poss?vel identificar que o sal?rio foi o principal motivo da escolha do servi?o, tamb?m associado ? perman?ncia dos agentes na fun??o. Em rela??o ?s dificuldades existentes na realiza??o do servi?o foi destacada a locomo??o, que se dava a p? por grandes dist?ncias, associada ? quantidade de peso levado pelos agentes, aos riscos aos quais estavam expostos e ? rigidez do Programa. A rela??o com os moradores foi evidenciada de maneira positiva, a partir do momento em que estes passavam a conhecer o servi?o e visualizar seus benef?cios. Os inseticidas utilizados foram associados positivamente ? aceita??o da popula??o e negativamente ?s dificuldades no transporte e exposi??o das equipes de trabalho, sendo a maior parte destes problemas relacionados ao desconhecimento sobre os efeitos do produto ao organismo. Em rela??o ao ambiente familiar, os entrevistados apontaram a saudade e aus?ncia no lar por per?odos prolongados como uma dificuldade, o que esteve relacionado a outros problemas como o alcoolismo e o div?rcio em alguns casos. Apesar das dificuldades, as falas est?o associadas ? satisfa??o com o trabalho, sendo destacada a seriedade e a efic?cia das a??es realizadas. N?o obstante ao sucesso do Programa, s?o apontados problemas no modelo atual de descentraliza??o o que se refere ? falta de apoio da gest?o municipal para a realiza??o do servi?o, baixa motiva??o, rotatividade e despreparo dos agentes municipalizados.

Jequitinhonha Valley is known as a region that presented high levels of Chagas disease transmission at the beginning of control activities. Poverty and lack of information among people were factors which allowed maintenance of triatomine populations in domestic environment. The present study aimed to identify, analyze and unveiling the work activity of agents and managers who worked in vector control of Chagas disease at Jequitinhonha Valley from 50s to 90s of 20th century, including how they perceived the control program and how they were received by residents. Study material was obtained by means of interviews with nine agents and three managers who worked at region. The interviews were recorded, transcribed, and analyzed by the instrument of content analysis that consists in highlighting passages according to their meanings, joining them into categories and making inferences. It was observed that the payment was the main reason of job chose. The heavy that was needed to carry by big distances, risks, and inflexibility of Program was pointed as difficulties. The relationship between agents and population was improved when people saw the benefices of work. The agents reported difficulties in manipulation of insecticides during spraying activities. In the family environment, they pointed absence from home in extended periods as a difficulty which was related to other problems such as alcoholism and divorce, in some cases. Despite the difficulties, was observed job satisfaction, and highlighted effectiveness of actions taken. Also. was mentioned problems in the current model of decentralization which refers to the lack of support of the municipal administration to perform the service, low motivation and lack of preparation of municipal agents. Keywords: Qualitative analysis; Chagas disease; Vector control; Work activity.

Nesta popula??o ainda existem grupos especiais, ou melhor, tradicionais que vivem em regi?es isoladas mantendo suas pr?ticas culturais parcialmente preservadas, s?o os chamados quilombolas. Em Diamantina (MG), pr?ximo ao distrito de S?o Jo?o da Chapada, existe uma comunidade quilombola denominada Quartel do Indai?, comunidade esta que se formou desde a d?cada de 30 do s?culo XVIII. Embora existam informa??es acerca desta comunidade e de outras da regi?o, a exemplo Cov?o e Algodoeiro, estas informa??es est?o dispersas em projetos isolados ou condensadas correspondendo ? popula??o negra ou geral do munic?pio. Os indicadores socioambientais desta popula??o tamb?m s?o fragmentados ou aglomerados compondo o cen?rio dos dados demogr?ficos de todo o munic?pio de Diamantina. O objetivo geral desta pesquisa ? investigar os indicadores socioambientais, os agravos de sa?de e o referenciamento aos servi?os de sa?de de tr?s comunidades Quilombolas na Serra do Espinha?o Meridional. Como espec?ficos: 1) identificar a estrutura demogr?fica e a sua distribui??o espacial; 2) caracterizar os principais agravos de sa?de e 3) verificar o referenciamento aos servi?os de sa?de e a inser??o destes nos programas assistenciais e nas pol?ticas governamentais. A an?lise de dados constituiu-se de quatro fases com metodologia multicrit?rio distinta. Na primeira fase te?rica foram escolhidos os tr?s grandes requerimentos (ambiental sa?de e social) a serem utilizados na ferramenta multicrit?rio e seus respectivos pesos. Na segunda fase foram criados os crit?rios de cada requerimento e realizado um estudo forma individual, mediante revis?o bibliogr?fica e de dados comparativos de valores de cada indicador, e mediante a consulta com especialistas na ?rea, para a defini??o de pesos e a forma de avalia??o de cada indicador. Na terceira fase, foi criada a ferramenta multicrit?rio, al?m da elabora??o de um aplicativo (tabela eletr?nica) para esta ferramenta, para que qualquer usu?rio no futuro possa utiliz?-la de forma f?cil. Esta tabela eletr?nica permitiu a gera??o de um ranking da situa??o de cada comunidade, o qual auxiliar? os respons?veis por desenvolvimento de projetos, ou a tomada de decis?o por parte dos agentes p?blicos em a??es a serem realizadas nas referidas comunidades. Por ?ltimo, na quarta fase ap?s a leitura das informa??es da an?lise multicrit?rio, foi elaborado um teste de sensibilidade com agentes da Emater e Procaj, com o intuito de clarifica??o de alguns indicadores aproximando mais da atual realidade destas comunidades. A metodologia de avalia??o desenvolvida possibilita a visibilidade de comunidades como as quilombolas e outras comunidades tradicionais, desde se adaptem alguns indicadores, visando a otimiza??o de pol?ticas p?blicas e priorizando os aspectos que sejam mais prec?rios e priorit?rios. / Disserta??o (Mestrado Profissional) ?

In this population there are special groups, or rather traditional living in isolated regions maintaining its partially preserved cultural practices, are called quilombos. In Diamantina (MG) exists near the district of S?o Jo?o da Chapada one quilombo community called Quartel do Indai?, this population that formed since the late 30 century XVIII. Although there are information about this community and others in the region - Cov?o and Algodoeiro, this information scattered in isolated projects or condensed in order to compose the black or the general population of the municipality. The social and environmental indicators in this population are also fragmented or clusters in order to set the scene of the demographics of the entire city of Diamantina. The objective of this research is to investigate the social and environmental indicators, health problems and the referencing to health services of trhee quilombo communities in the southern Espinha?o. Specific: 1) identify the demographic structure and its spatial distribution; 2) characterize the main health problems and 3) check the referencing to health services and the inclusion of these in welfare programs and government policies. Data analysis consists of four phases with different multicriteria methodology. In the first lecture phase were chosen the three major requirements (environmental health and social) to be used in multi-criteria and their respective weights tool. In the second phase were set the criteria for each application and made a study individually, through literature and comparative data for each indicator values review, and by consulting with experts in the field, to define weights and the form of assessment each indicator. In the third phase, the multicriteria tool was created in addition to the preparation of an application (electronic table) this tool, so that any user in the future can use it easily. This electronic table allowed us to create a ranking of the situation of each community, which will help those responsible for development projects, or decision-making by public officials on actions to be taken in those communities. Finally, in the fourth stage after reading the multi-criteria analysis of information, a sensitive test was developed with Emater and Procaj agents, in order to clarify some indicators approaching the most of the current reality of these communities. The developed assessment methodology enables the visibility of communities such as quilombos and other traditional communities, since adapt some indicators in order to optimize public policies and prioritize aspects that are more precarious and priority.

Science has featured intermittently as the subject of theatrical texts since Thomas Shadwell first represented the Renaissance scientist in The Virtuoso (1676). The late twentieth century, however, saw an incremental growth in theatre's interest in scientific exploration, a growth concommitant with the vast impact that science has had on technology, warfare and the machinations of political power. The tensions generated by the disjuncture between the rationality of science and the unpredictability of human society have provided a rich source of material for theatrical investigation into the human experience. The purpose of this thesis is twofold: to reveal some of the thematic concerns that emerge in this genre, and to examine the interplay between theatre and science. Shelagh Stephenson's An Experiment with an Air Pump (1999) provides a useful point of focus for this inquiry. By parallelling two time periods, exposing the scientific objectification of women and, in addition, opening up contemporary ethics for negotiation with the audience, Stephenson calls into question the objectivity and certainty of history, gender and ethical conduct. These she presents as dynamic and evolving fields of discourse that contribute to, but do not solely constitute, knowledge and understanding of the world. An Experiment with an Air Pump also displays an awareness, through its metatheatricality, of theatre itself as an imaginative, subjective discourse which parallels the more intuitive and personal aspects of scientific exploration. The play functions as a microscope, bringing into focus a contemporary world in which traditional systems of understanding and knowledge need to be reassessed and reinvented.

O presente estudo apresenta indícios de um aprender como ato a partir de um trajetar da pesquisadora nos ambientes escolares e, em especial, em turmas do segundo ano do Ensino Fundamental, numa escola municipal localizada no Vale do Rio dos Sinos, Rio Grande do Sul, Brasil. Com uma proposta vinculada ao projeto Civitas – LELIC/PPGEDU/UFRGS, as tessituras do escrito dialogam com a produção do filósofo russo Mikhail Bakhtin, tendo como objeto de análise os enunciados produzidos pelos sujeitos atuantes na pesquisa (alunos/as; professorapesquisadora). Nessa perspectiva, a metodologia utilizada, singularmente, se apresenta como um ato ético-estético que se entrelaça, acolhe e enuncia modos singulares de ver, conceber e sentir o processo de aprendizagem e, mais precisamente, ao ato de aprender, revelando o inusitado de novas vizinhanças: e, neste sentido, aponta para as possibilidades da invenção fugindo do hábito para leituras originais do que se dá “às vistas” e “às escutas”, aos acabamentos estéticos provisórios possibilitados pelos excedentes de visão, também, como plano de produção de si numa arquitetônica coletiva de produção do conhecimento. Uma tessitura ao mesmo tempo ética (pelo encontro com o outro) e estética (na busca de lhe dar, à experiência, um acabamento) pelos quais os sujeitos situados se relacionam e produzem a sala de aula como lugar coletivo. / This study presents evidence of learning as an act from the researcher's transit in school environments and in particular in the second year classes of an elementary school, a public school located in the Vale do Rio dos Sinos, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. With a proposal linked to the Civitas project - LELIC / PPGEDU / UFRGS, the interwoven of the written dialogues with the production of the Russian philosopher Mikhail Bakhtin, which has as object of analysis the utterances produced by the acting subjects in this research (students; the teacher-researcher). From this perspective, the methodology used is uniquely presented as an ethic-aesthetic act that intertwines, welcomes and sets unique ways of seeing, and feeling the learning process development, and more specifically the act of revealing the unusual learning of new neighborhoods. And in this sense it points to possibilities of the invention escaping from the current, original readings of what gives "the sights" and "the listenings" the provisional aesthetic completion made possible by the exceding vision as well as a production plan in itself, an architectural collective production of knowledge. A fabric that is at the same time ethic (in the meeting with the other) and aesthetic (in the quest of giving the other the experience, a completion) in which situated subjects relate and produce a classroom as a collective place.

O tema central desta pesquisa é o ensino e a aprendizagem do cuidado de enfermagem. O objetivo foi conhecer as representações e as práticas predominantes no processo atual de ensino e aprendizagem do cuidado, na percepção de alunos e professores dos cursos de Enfermagem, em universidades gaúchas. A presente investigação foi realizada em três universidades de diferentes regiões do Estado do Rio Grande do Sul. A metodologia utilizada foi a história oral e para análise das narrativas utilizou-se a análise temática. Ao trilhar os caminhos da construção desta dissertação, foram estabelecidos limites para a organização e apresentação dos resultados, uma vez que as possibilidades de desdobramentos eram múltiplas desta forma, para o desenvolvimento da versão final foram desenvolvidos três capítulos. Por fim, apresento algumas considerações finais, apontando estratégias e caminhos através de um ensino que é possível, desde que os seres ensinantes e aprendentes estejam dispostos a mesclar as representações e práticas de seus saberes e fazeres, na construção de uma ação em que haja vidas comprometidas a cuidar de outras vidas. / Submitted by Ana Guimarães Pereira (agpereir@ucs.br) on 2015-02-05T12:47:16Z No. of bitstreams: 1 Dissertacao Ruy de Almeida Barcellos.pdf: 1292017 bytes, checksum: 6a8b7b00f47f47351768cdfd83b42b54 (MD5) / Made available in DSpace on 2015-02-05T12:47:16Z (GMT).

Visando entender melhor essa din?mica na ambiente do cerrado, este estudo teve como objetivo estudar na regi?o de Diamantina a intera??o dos elementos clim?ticos entre fitofisionomias de Campo Rupestre e Cerrado Rupestre e tamb?m relacionar as caracter?sticas ed?ficas e flor?sticas com o clima. Para an?lise flor?stica foram alocadas, nos dois ambientes de estudo, 10 parcelas cont?guas de 20x50m, totalizando uma amostragem de 10.000 m?. Para os elementos clim?ticos foram utilizados, para caracterizar os ambientes de cerrado, a temperatura, a umidade relativa do ar, a press?o real e de satura??o do vapor de ?gua, o d?ficit de press?o do vapor do ar, a velocidade do vento, a precipita??o, a irradi?ncia solar global, e a amplitude t?rmica. Utilizaram-se para tal os dados obtidos em duas esta??es meteorol?gicas autom?ticas localizadas pr?ximo aos dois ambientes. Empregou-se o Teste-T para analisar a possibilidade de diferen?a entre m?dias das vari?veis clim?ticas nos dois ambientes, que atribuir?o distribui??o normal. Da mesma forma, aplicou-se o teste n?o param?trico Kruskal-Wallis para as vari?veis clim?ticas que n?o conferir?o normalidade nos dois ambientes em estudo. Optou-se ap?s essas an?lises, pelo uso da an?lise multivariada, para melhor compreens?o da distin??o microclim?tica desses dois ambientes. A an?lise can?nica dos componentes principais (PCA) distinguiu o grupo do Campo Rupestre e do Cerrado Rupestre, utilizando-se das mesmas vari?veis clim?ticas que obtiveram signific?ncia no Teste-T e no teste Kruskal-Wallis. O primeiro eixo do componente principal explanou a maior vari?ncia (67,8%) na qual o ambiente de Campo Rupestre se distingue do Cerrado Rupestre pela PCA principalmente em maior velocidade do vento, menor umidade relativa m?xima, menor press?o real e de satura??o do vapor de ?gua e menor temperatura m?xima e m?dia e menor amplitude t?rmica. A express?o da vegeta??o se d? em virtude da combina??o de fatores como o n?vel de rochosidade e profundidade do solo e clim?ticos, haja vista que as esp?cies vegetais s?o diferentes nesses ambientes: apenas sete das esp?cies se distribuem nos dois locais de estudo. Dessa forma, o Cerrado Rupestre apresenta alguns elementos da flora tamb?m presentes no Campo Rupestre, destacando-se o estrato subarbustivo-herb?cio. Para a segunda pesquisa, os indiv?duos do ambiente de Campo Rupestre foram avaliados quanto ? frequ?ncia, domin?ncia e densidade. Realizou-se a correla??o da densidade das esp?cies desse ambiente com 9 vari?veis qu?micas e f?sicas do solo por meio da an?lise de correspond?ncia can?nica (ACC). A maior abund?ncia de indiv?duos (I) foi representada pela esp?cie L. pohlii e foi verificada nas parcelas 6 (com 255 I), 7 (173 I), 8 (189 I), 9 (159 I) e a parcela 1 com 151 I. Verificaram-se nestas parcelas caracter?sticas flor?sticas e do solo semelhantes, resultando em uma proximidade espacial quando representadas nos diagramas da ACC. A esp?cie Lychnophora pohlii demonstrou capacidade de exist?ncia com maior abund?ncia em microambientes pedol?gicos favor?veis ao estabelecimento da esp?cie como estrat?gia de adapta??o ?s perturba??es ambientais. Essa separa??o se fez com base principalmente nos valores mais elevados de f?sforo remanescente, satura??o por bases, pH e areia grossa e, por outro lado, os menores valores de H+Al, mat?ria org?nica e argila. / Disserta??o (Mestrado) ? Programa de P?s-Gradua??o em Ci?ncia Florestal, Universidade Federal dos Vales do Jequitinhonha e Mucuri, 2012. / ABSTRACT The climate and soil has a close relationship with the vegetation of a particular locality. In order to better understand this dynamic environment of the cerrado, this study aimed to study the region of Diamantina climatic elements of the interaction between physiognomies of Savannah Rupestrian and Field Rupestrian and also relate the soil characteristics and species composition with the weather. For floristic analysis were allocated, in the two study environments, 10 contiguous parcels of 20x50 m, with a total sample of 10,000 m?. Soil sampling was done with the collection of 6 simple samples, from 0 to 20cm, forming a composite sample, the ten plots of each environment studied. The level of rockiness was defined as the proportion rock touched on the environment using the scale-Braun Blanquet studied in both environments.The climatic elements used to characterize the Savannah environments were: temperature, relative humidity, the actual pressure and saturated vapor water, the deficit pressure vapor air, wind speed, precipitation, global solar irradiance and temperature range.Were used for such data from the two stations located close to the two automatic environments. We used the t-test to examine the possibility of differences between means of climate variables in the two environments that were normally distributed. Likewise, we applied the nonparametric Kruskal-Wallis test for climatic variables not identified in both normal environments under study. It was decided, after these analyzes, the use of multivariate analysis to better understand the distinction these two climatic environments. The canonical analysis of principal components (PCA) distinguished the group's Field Rupestrian and the Savannah Rupestrian, using the same climate variables that achieved significance in the T-test and Kruskal-Wallis test. The first axis of principal component explain the greatest variance (67.8%) in which the environment Field Rupestrian is distinguished from the Savannah Rupestrian by PCA mainly at higher wind speeds, lower humidity relative maximum, lower actual pressure and saturation vapor water and lower temperature maximum and average and lower temperature range. The expression of the vegetation is due to the combination of climatic and edaphic factors, given the fact that the species are different in these environments. In this way, Savannah rupestrian flora includes some elements also present in the Field rupestrian, especially in the stratum subshrubherb?cio. For the second study, individuals in the environment Field rupestrian were evaluated for frequency, dominance and density. Went conducted the correlation between the density of this species with nine chemical and physical variables of the soil through canonical correspondence analysis (CCA). The greater abundance of individuals (I) of the species L. pohlii was observed in plots 06 (with 255 I), 7 (173 I), 8 (189 I), 9 (I 159) and 1 (151 I). As seen in these parcels characteristics floristic and similar soil, resulting in a spatial proximity when represented in the diagrams of the ACC. The specie Lychnophora pohlii demonstrated the ability of existence with greater abundance in soil microenvironments favorable to the establishment of the specie as a strategy to adapt to environmental perturbations. This separation was made based mainly on higher values of phosphorus balance, saturation, pH and coarse sand, and on the other hand the lowest values of H + Al, organic matter and clay.
