A concessão de créditos garantidos pelo próprio ativo financiado responde por substancial fatia da atividade creditícia e permite o acesso a financiamentos de devedores mais arriscados com taxas de juros reduzidas. O financiamento de aeronaves é um nicho especialmente dependente desse tipo de estrutura e a investigação de um indicador que consolide os parâmetros quantitativos relevantes para sua análise amplia a robustez e organiza a subjetividade dos processos de tomada de decisão. Esse trabalho ilustra o desenvolvimento do indicador time to loss como um desdobramento prático dos fundamentos implícitos na formulação de perda esperada do Comitê de Basileia. São evidenciadas as três curvas que caracterizam a estimação do tempo para a perda: a exposição devida ao inadimplir, o valor residual da aeronave e os custos e encargos no período de recuperação do crédito. Calculado o indicador para o caso base de estudo, o trabalho explora ainda alternativas para a construção de escalas de referência que qualifiquem sua interpretação. Testes e estudos continuados são propostos como referência para futuras pesquisas e desenvolvimento do tema. / The concession of credit secured by the financed asset itself accounts for a substantial share of lending activity and allows access to finance for riskier borrowers with lower interest rates. The aircraft financing is a typical niche dependent on this type of structure and the investigation of an index that consolidates relevant quantitative parameters for its analysis extends the robustness and organizes the subjectivity of the decision-making process. This work illustrates the development of the indicator time to loss as a practical deployment of the implicit foundations in the expected loss formulation of the Basel Committee. Three curves are evidenced featuring the estimation of the time to loss: exposure due to defaults, the residual value of the aircraft and the cost and burden on the credit recovery period. After calculating the time to loss indicator for the base case study, the work also explores ways to build a reference scale which qualify its interpretation. Tests and continued studies are proposed as reference theme for future research and development. / Dissertação (mestrado) - Programa de Pós-Graduação e Pesquisa em Administração e Economia, Faculdades Ibmec, Rio de Janeiro, 2015. / Bibliografia: p. 76-77

pesquisa tem como objetivo central estudar as sociedades contemporâneas, a partir das dinâmicas infocomunicativas em que se desdobram alguns fenômenos coletivos organizados em rede na América Latina. O objeto de pesquisa está delimitado ao contexto de manifestação em junho de 2013 no Brasil, e ao papel desenvolvido pelo coletivo Mídia NINJA nesses acontecimentos. O trabalho se complementa com comentários e comparações ocasionais de outros movimentos similares no continente americano. Metodologicamente, utilizou-se a técnica da netnografia, uma abordagem que adapta-se às contingencias específicas do contexto em estudo, além de pesquisa bibliográfica e entrevistas. A partir da análise dos dados, concluiu-se que a ação social contemporânea se diferencia de um modelo de organização política tradicional; ela se alinha com as experiências individuais dos atores antagonistas e com o uso e apropriação das Tecnologias de Informação e Comunicação (TICs), o que coloca o acento na informação e na cultura como terreno estratégico dos conflitos. / This research project seeks to study the contemporary societies, from the info-communicative dynamics in the work developed by some collective phenomena organized in a network in Latin America. The object of this research is delimited to the context of the demonstration that took place in June 2013 in Brazil, and the role played by the collective media NINJA in these events. The work is complemented with comments and occasional comparisons of similar movements in the American continent. Methodologically, it uses the netnography technique because it is an approach customized to the specific contingencies of the context under study, as well as bibliographic and research through interviews. From the analysis of the data, it was concluded that contemporary social action differs from a traditional model of political organization; it aligns with the individual experiences of antagonistic actors and the use and appropriation of I, which highlights the information and culture as a strategic land conflicts.

Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior / The manifestations that took place in Brazil throughout June 2013 have made their way into the history of the country. Protests called by virtue of the increase in public transport fares, specially in the city of São Paulo, spread to hundreds of cities, leading millions of people to the streets, with the expansion of the demand for guidelines. Politicians, state institutions and politics itself were targeted by protesters who have clearly shown they do not feel represented by elected politicians. These manifestations of rejection lead to the conclusion that the crisis of representation, faced by many democracies around the globe, is felt daily by people. Besides, a deficit of participation is also notable, i.e., there is no place or encouragement for people to participate in state decisions. In this context, politicians were surprised by the magnitude of the protests, not knowing how to interpret the claims from the streets in first place. It was necessary to provide answers, and President Dilma Rousseff interpreted the events as a request for greater participation. Less than a year after the June events, the Presidency of the Republic published Act 8.243/2014, which established the National Policy for Social Participation and the National Social Participation System. The Act has been criticized, but also supported. In the same sense of criticism, Legislative Act Projects with the Congress were presented in order to halt the effects of the Presidential Act. Hence, this research is inserted in the context of the crisis of representation and the expansion of popular participation channels within the state institutions. The objective is to verify whether and to what extent Act 8.243/2014 was influenced by the events of June 2013, as well as to evaluate the projects that wish to overthrow the Act, in order to verify the constitutionality of such rule. Therefore, the hypothetical-deductive method of approach has been applied and regarding the procedure, the methods were the case study and the functionalist. It was concluded that the publication of Act 8.243/2014 has relationships with the events that occurred in June 2013. In addition, the debate established by the critics of the Act is political, since the legal arguments for restraining its effects do not thrive. It is fighting for positions of power instead of a strictly legal debate. / As manifestações ocorridas em junho de 2013 entraram para a história do Brasil. Os protestos convocados em virtude do aumento das tarifas do transporte público, com centralidade em São Paulo, espalharam-se por centenas de cidades, levando milhões às ruas, com a ampliação das pautas de reivindicação. Os políticos, a política e instituições do Estado foram alvo dos manifestantes, dos quais muitos demonstraram claramente não se sentirem representados pelos políticos eleitos. Essas manifestações de repúdio levam à conclusão de que a crise de representatividade, atravessada por diversas democracias ao redor do globo, é sentida diariamente pelas pessoas. Além disso, constata-se também um déficit de participação, isto é, faltam espaços e incentivo para as pessoas participarem das decisões do Estado. Nesse contexto, os políticos surpreenderam-se com a magnitude dos protestos, não sabendo como interpretar as reivindicações das ruas, em um primeiro momento. Era preciso dar respostas, e a Presidente Dilma Roussef interpretou as manifestações como um pedido por maior participação. Após menos de um ano dos acontecimentos de junho, a Presidência da República editou o Decreto 8.243/2014, o qual instituiu a Política Nacional de Participação Social e o Sistema Nacional de Participação Social. O Decreto foi alvo de críticas, mas também conta com defensores. No mesmo sentido das críticas, foram apresentados Projetos de Decreto Legislativo junto ao Congresso com vistas a sustar os efeitos do Decreto presidencial. É no contexto da crise de representatividade e da ampliação dos canais de participação popular no seio das instituições estatais que a presente pesquisa se insere. Objetiva-se verificar se e em que medida o Decreto 8.243/2014 foi influenciado pelas manifestações de junho de 2013, bem como avaliar os projetos que querem derrubar o Decreto, para verificar a constitucionalidade ou não dessa norma. Para tanto, utilizou-se do método de abordagem hipotético-dedutivo e quanto ao procedimento, os métodos foram o estudo de caso e o funcionalista. Concluiu-se que a edição do Decreto 8.243/2014 tem relações com as manifestações ocorridas no mês de junho de 2013. Além disso, o debate estabelecido pelos críticos do Decreto é político, uma vez que os argumentos jurídicos apresentados para a sustação dos seus efeitos não prosperam. Trata-se de luta por espaços de poder antes de um debate estritamente jurídico.

The main goal of this thesis is recontruction of a historical event which took place on the shooting-range in Kladno - Krnčí on 1st June 1942 by using the oral history method. Shortly after the World war 2nd , there was build a memorial, which reminded this tragedy and was soon forgotten. Recording interviews with the contemporaries of that event and family relatives plays the key role. Along side that the thesis stands on information from various fonds of National archive, State regional archives and Archive of safety organs, and also from online sources and print. The author describes in the text his first touch with the oral history method and obstacles deriving from particular interviews. He focuses on finding and interviewing direct witnesses of the tragedy, even a son of the executed in one case. The core of the thesis is dedicated to narators view on the event in 1942 which they could hear or experience. By comparing the archive sources and the narators interpretations there contruction of the incident becomes a solid overview what happens before the execution in 1942. Besides the main proposition of applicability of oral history method on recontruction of the past, the author also thinks of practical experiences in using the oral history method. Keywords: Kladno - Krnčí, execution June 1st...

A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE WITS SCHOOL OF THE ARTS, UNIVERSITY OF THE WITWATERSRAND, 2015 / South Africa’s post-apartheid era has, in a space of nearly two decades, experienced a massive memory boom manifest in a plethora of new memorials, monuments, museums and the renaming of streets, parks, dams and buildings. This memorialisation process is intrinsically linked to questions of power, struggles and contestation in the making and remaking of the South African nation. The questions of power, struggle and contestation manifest as a wave of debates on the place of history, collective memory, identity and social cohesion in the inception as well as the functioning of the various memorialisation projects in society. This thesis concludes that debates concerning the meaning(s) as well as the way in which the June 16, 1976 uprisings have been memorialized, has been ongoing for the last three decades, and will continue into the future. This, as the findings bear out, is because the wider contextual situating of collective memory in its intangible and tangible form is intrinsically linked to complex experiences of the past; to ongoing experiments of a “nation” in the making, as well as pressing contemporary social challenges. The thesis also concludes that questions of power, struggle and contestation also manifest as a quest for relevant idioms and aesthetics of re-representation and memorialisation. Further, the thesis makes observations on the politics behind the assembling and the assembled archive as a toolkit in the fashioning of pasts and the making of collective memory. It reflects on the processes of re-thinking and remaking of the June 16, 1976 archive. These conclusions have been arrived at through an investigation of how the memory and meaning of the June 16, 1976 uprisings have been re-constructed, re-represented and fashioned over the last three decades. This was done by tracking and analysing the complex, diverse forms and character of its memorialisation. In the process, the study arrives at a conclusion that the memorialisation of the June 16, 1976 uprisings is characterised by the multiplicity of tangible and intangible features. The intangible features are characterised by forgetting, at one level, and are, on another level, animated through rituals of commemoration, counter- commemoration and memorial debate. The memorial debate on the uprisings is that of unity and diversity, division, contestation and counter-commemoration and essentially irresolvable, as history and memory are tools to address contemporary challenges.

“What is Zen for Film?”, I was asked on the occasion of a preparatory meeting for Revisions, an exhibition to feature Zen for Film (1962–64), Nam June Paik’s “blank” film projection. Despite the many discussions that preceded the meeting, when it came to the question of what the main—and the only—artwork of this exhibition was, we felt as if we’d been left in the dark. Is Zen for Film an idea, a concept—or rather, an event, a performance, or a process? In its original form, Revisions: Zen for Film combined a research project, pedagogy, an exhibition, and an exhibition catalogue. Revised again in the following pages, Revisions is an exercise in slow looking. It questions the ambition of constructing the work with a fixed identity, a product that moves seamlessly from the studio to the world of dissemination, distribution, and display. Instead, Zen for Film will appear once again as an assemblage of people, things, and events, a vibrant materiality destined for a changeable future.

[pt] A presente tese investiga as relações entre partidos políticos e sociedade civil no Brasil no início do século XXI. A hipótese é a de que a participação ativa dos partidos políticos na vida cotidiana das tradicionais organizações da sociedade civil, ainda que sob graus e qualidades distintas, assumiu novos contornos no período pós-jornadas de junho de 2013. Para tanto, são observadas as filiações partidárias das principais lideranças das centrais sindicais e entidades patronais, o envolvimento dos partidos em organizações da sociedade civil como os movimentos estudantis e os clubes desportivos, bem como os novos movimentos sociais como Vem Pra Rua, MBL, Frente Brasil Popular e Frente Povo Sem Medo. A partir de uma observação comparada, o estudo apresenta como pano de fundo casos internacionais como Podemos na Espanha, Syriza na Grécia, Bloco de Esquerda em Portugal, Die Linke na Alemanha, Front de Gauche em França e Movimento 5 Estrelas na Itália como exemplos daquilo que a literatura contemporânea tem conceituado como Partidos-Movimento. Além da análise comparada, o método adotado mescla instrumentos da sociologia política com a ciência política. / [en] This thesis investigates the relationships between political parties and civil society in Brazil at the beginning of the 21st century. The assumption is that the active participation of political parties in the daily life of traditional civil society organizations, even under different grades and qualities, took on new contours after June 2013. With this purpose, it will be shown the investigation of the affiliations in the parties in civil society organizations such as student movements and sports clubs, and the new social movements such as Vem Pra Rua, MBL, Frente Brasil Popular and Povo Sem Medo. From a comparative observation, the study presents international cases such as Podemos in Spain, Syriza in Greece, Bloco de Esquerda in Portugal, Die Linke in Germany, Front de Gauche in France and 5-Star Movement in Italy as examples of what contemporary literature has conceptualized as Movement-Party. Besides the comparative analysis, the adopted method mixes instruments of political sociology with political Science.

On March 10, 1957, the United States Army Corps of Engineers completed The Dalles Dam and inundated Celilo Falls, the oldest continuously inhabited site in North America and a cultural and economic hub for Indigenous people. In the negotiation of treaties between the United States, nearly one hundred years earlier, Indigenous leaders reserved access to Columbia River fishing sites as they ceded territory and retained smaller reservations. In the years before the dam's completion, leaders, many of who were the descendants of earlier treaty signatories, attempted to stop the dam and protect both fishing sites from the encroachment of state and federal regulations and archaeological sites from destruction. This study traces the work of Wilson Charley, a Native fisherman, a member of the Yakama Nation's Tribal Council, and great-grandson of one of the 1855 treaty signatories. More broadly, this study places Indigenous actors on a twentieth-century Columbia River while demonstrating that they played active roles in the protest and management of areas affected by The Dalles Dam. Using previously untapped archival sources--a substantial cache of letters--my analysis illustrates that Charley articulated multiple strategies to fight The Dalles Dam and regulations to curtail Native's treaty fishing rights. Aiming to protect the 1855 treaty and stop The Dalles Dam, Charley created Native-centered regulatory agencies. He worked directly with politicians and supported political candidates, like Richard Neuberger, that favored Native concerns. He attempted to build partnerships with archaeologists and landscape preservationists concerned about losing the area's rich cultural sites. Even after the dam's completion, he conceptualized multiple tribal economic development plans that would allow for Natives' cultural and economic survival. Given the national rise of technological optimism and the willingness for the federal government to terminate its relationship with federally recognized tribes, Charley realized that taking the 1855 treaty to court was too risky for the political climate of the 1950s. Instead, he framed his strategies in the language of twentieth-century conservation, specifically to garner support from a national audience of non-natives interested in protecting landscapes from industrial development. While many of these non-native partners ultimately failed him, his strategies are noteworthy for three reasons. First, he cast the fight to uphold Native treaty rights in terms that were relevant to non-natives, demonstrating his complex understanding of the times in which he lived. Second, his strategies continued an ongoing struggle for Natives to fish at their treaty-protected sites, thereby documenting an overlooked period between the fishing rights cases of the turn of the twentieth century and the 1960s and 1970s. Charley left a lasting legacy that scholars have not recognized because many of his visionary ideas came to fruition decades later. Finally, my analysis of Charley's letters also documents personal details that afford readers the unique perspective of one Indigenous person navigated through a tumultuous period in the Pacific Northwest and Native American history.

SANTRAUKA Sovietinės okupacijos metu žuvo ir nukentėjo apie 350 tūkst. Lietuvos gyventojų. Visų jų atminimui nuo 1941 m. su pertraukomis buvo statomi įvairių tipų paminklai. Tyrimo objektas – rezistencijos dalyvių ir sovietinio genocido aukų įamžinimo paminklais procesas, jo ypatumai ir kylančios problemos, taip pat vietovių ir statinių, įamžintų paminklais, apskaitos ir įpaveldinimo klausimai. Jie iki šiol nenagrinėti ir nėra sulaukę tyrimo. Darbo tikslas – atskleisti Lietuvos gyventojų sovietinio genocido aukų ir rezistencijos dalyvių atminimo įamžinimo ir įpaveldinimo procesus bei su jais susijusias problemas. Tam įgyvendinti yra iškeliami šie uždaviniai: 1. nustatyti paminklų statybos etapus ir statytojų grupes, jas apibūdinti; 2. išsiaiškinti, kaip vykdoma vietovių ir statinių, pažymėtų paminklais, apskaita, koks šių objektų skirstymas; 3. apžvelgti, kaip vykdomi vietovių ir statinių tvarkymo bei įamžinimo darbai; 4. išsiaiškinti, kokios yra įamžinimo ir įpaveldinimo problemos. Tyrimo chronologija – tyrimas pradedamas XX a 5–uoju dešimtmečiu, kadangi jame prasidėjo pirmoji paminklų statymo banga ir įamžinimo darbai. Procesas nėra baigtinis, jis vyksta ir dabar, todėl apsibrėžiame 2006 m. Remiantis darbo tyrimu paminklų statyba sovietinio genocido aukų ir rezistencinio judėjimo dalyvių atminimui Lietuvoje vyko trimis etapais, kur memorialinių vietovių teritorijų tvarkymą, paminklų statybą ir memorialinių statinių ženklinimą vykdė įvairūs žmonės ir organizacijos, kuriuos...

From 1941 on, with interruptions, monuments of various kinds have been built to commemorate all of them. The subject of this investigation is the process of immortalizing members of the resistance movement and victims of Soviet genocide in monuments, the specific features of and problems encountered in this process, as well as issues concerning the inventory and memorialization of sites and buildings recognized as monuments. These have not been the subject of any study hitherto and have not been the focus of investigation. The goal of this work is to disclose the processes and associated problems of commemorating and memorializing Lithuanian victims of Soviet genocide and members of the resistance. To achieve this goal, the following tasks were formulated: 1. to determine the phases of monument construction and groups of builders, and to characterize them; 2. to explain how inventory of sites and buildings recognized as monuments takes place and how these objects are categorized; 3. to survey how work is carried out for the maintenance and commemoration of sites and buildings; 4. to ascertain the nature of problems involved in commemoration and memorialization. Based on the work of our investigation, the construction of monuments commemorating victims of Soviet genocide and members of the resistance movement took place in three phases in Lithuania, a process in which...
