A expansão da geração de energia elétrica é tema de permanente atenção por parte do Estado brasileiro, dos investidores e da sociedade em geral, em razão da essencialidade dessa atividade para o desenvolvimento econômico e social sustentável. Com bases nas premissas de garantia do suprimento, planejamento e modicidade tarifária, foram adotados no Brasil diversos mecanismos de incentivo à geração de energia elétrica, que representam atratividade ao investidor público e privado. Os riscos na geração de energia elétrica também são indicados em diversos instrumentos, desde a legislação federal e a regulação promovida pela Agência Nacional de Energia Elétrica - ANEEL até contratos, regras e procedimentos relativos à comercialização de energia elétrica e à operação do Sistema Interligado Nacional - SIN. No presente trabalho é apresentada análise da atividade de geração de energia elétrica no Brasil, a partir do modelo setorial definido em 2004, numa visão legal-regulatória sobre riscos para seu desenvolvimento e mecanismos de incentivos definidos pelo Poder Público. Se os riscos, de um lado, podem afastar o investidor do setor, os meios de mitigação de riscos e os incentivos, por outro lado, atraem esse mesmo investidor, em razão do cenário favorável propiciado por diversos benefícios definidos, especialmente nos últimos anos, por meio de programas governamentais, como o Programa de Aceleração do Crescimento PAC, o Regime Especial de Incentivos para o Desenvolvimento da Infraestrutura REIDI, linhas de financiamento do Banco Nacional de Desenvolvimento Econômico e Social BNDES e outros. Considerado esse cenário, o objetivo desse trabalho é possibilitar uma avaliação sobre o desenvolvimento da atividade de geração de energia elétrica, quanto aos seus riscos e mecanismos de incentivo, sob o enfoque legal-regulatório, o que visa contribuir para o debate acadêmico e a ampliação do conhecimento sobre o setor elétrico brasileiro. / The expansion of electricity generation is a subject of constant attention by the Brazilian Government, investors and society as a whole, due to its essential role for the economic and social development. Based on the premises of supply guarantee, planning and low tariffs, incentive mechanisms were adopted in Brazil to encourage electricity generation, representing attractiveness to general public and private investors. The risks in electricity generation are also appointed by several instruments: federal legislation and regulation promoted by Electric Energy National Agency (ANEEL Portuguese acronym), contracts, rules and procedures related to electricity commercialization and operation of National Interconnected System (SIN Portuguese acronym). In this paper are presented analysis of electricity generation in Brazil, (since the beginning of current model 2004), including a legal-regulatory view about risks to its development and incentive mechanisms which are defined by the Government. There is a kind of fine-tuning balance, one hand risks may avert investors, on the other hand, the incentives may attract the same investors. We can identify this behavior due to the favorable business environment created by several and specific benefits that were defined, especially in last years, through Governmental programs, such as Acceleration Growth Program (Programa de Aceleração do Crescimento PAC in Portuguese), Special Development Incentives for Infrastructure (Regime Especial de Incentivos para o Desenvolvimento da Infraestrutura REIDI), funding lines from National Development Bank (Banco Nacional de Desenvolvimento Econômico e Social BNDES) among others. Then, this paper goals to provide an evaluation about development of electricity generation, its risks and incentive mechanisms under the legal-regulatory focus, in order to contribute to academic debate and expansion of knowledge about Brazilian electricity sector.

Therefore, it was necessary to demonstrate the evolution of environmental law in the world and in Brazil, as well as the institutionalization of climate protection policy in Brazil, their policies and objectives. In the oil industry sector, evaluate the influence of owning countries and oil producers in the Brazilian energy matrix, the legal changes that have altered the ownership of natural resources throughout history, the change of legislation for oil exploration in the pre -salt field in 2010, and the current scenario of oil exploration in the polygon. In order to achieve the proposed goal, there was a brief overview on the scientific aspects of climate change and the voluntary commitments made by Brazil, in an effort to reduce gas emissions between 36,1 % to 38,9 % by 2020. It was found that oil is a finite resource and that, according to the theory of Peak Oil and the current target for oil exploration in the pre-salt, there are two possible future scenarios with different consequences to Brazil. It was understood that the country published two legislations, one of climate protection and other oil exploration in the pre-salt, which does not establish a dialogue and demonstrate a route of confront between the policies. Still, proposals were searched for confronting of the two scenarios mentioned above. / A presente dissertação teve como objetivo principal analisar o marco regulatório do pré-sal sob a luz da política nacional sobre mudança do clima, identificando se existem pontos de colidência entre os dois marcos legais. Para tanto, foi preciso demonstrar a evolução do direito ambiental do mundo e no Brasil, assim como a institucionalização da política de proteção ao clima no Brasil, suas diretrizes e objetivos. No setor da indústria petrolífera, foi necessário avaliar a influência dos países possuidores e produtores de petróleo na matriz energética brasileira, as mudanças legais que alteraram a propriedade dos recursos naturais ao longo da história, a mudança da legislação do petróleo para a exploração no campo do pré-sal em 2010, e o atual cenário de exploração de petróleo no polígono do pré-sal. De modo a cumprir o objetivo proposto, realizou-se uma breve abordagem sobre os aspectos científicos das mudanças climáticas publicadas pelo IPCC e os compromissos voluntários assumidos pelo Brasil, no sentido de reduzir suas emissões de GEE entre 36,1% a 38,9%, até 2020. Constatou-se que o petróleo é um recurso finito e que, de acordo com a teoria do Peak Oil e a atual meta de exploração de petróleo no pré-sal, existem dois possíveis cenários futuros com consequências distintas paras o Brasil. Entendeu-se que o país editou duas legislações: uma de proteção ao clima e outra de regulamentação da exploração de petróleo no pré-sal, que que não estabelecem um diálogo e demonstram uma rota de confronto entre as políticas. Ainda, buscou-se propostas para o enfrentamento dos dois cenários mencionados acima.

The various transformations that Quebec society was undergoing throughout the 1980s are reflected in the dramaturgy of the period, notably in the critique of nationalist discourse, and in the writing of hitherto marginalized groups such as women, immigrants, and gays and lesbians. / The tensions within the family unit are one of the leitmotivs of Quebec theatre in the 1980s, which usually represents the mother either as a sort of monster who suffocates her children, or as a victim of the Law of the Father. When a woman decides to speak and to redefine motherhood, this dual model of the "patriarchal mother" crumbles and the universe of the family must be reconfigured. / In this thesis, we propose a semiological analysis for each of the plays of our corpus. The first chapter analyzes Addolorata, by Marco Micone. In this play, the mother's taking possession of speech not only destabilizes her family but also calls into question established structures within the Italo-Quebecois community. The second chapter examines Marie Laberge's Aurelie, ma soeur, a play which illustrates the (re)construction of the family unit around a nonbiological maternal bond. The third and final chapter studies Michel Marc Bouchard's Les Muses orphelines, in which access to speech and to the condition of mother is achieved through lies and truth. In the conclusion of this thesis, we bring together the principal characteristics of the feminine and maternal voices which are heard in the three plays, voices which are all defined by the desire, the need to affirm their subjectivity.

This is a descriptive research, using qualitative methods of data collection and analysis, configuring, still, as a case study. Data were gathered from literature, documents, semi-structured interviews and mainly by participant observation methods. The results show a great diversity of cultural resources in the region, both material and immaterial, which however are disarticulated, and need to be worked in order to be included in the tourism productive chain. The main opportunity for innovation regards the return of the Landmark to the region, an invaluable monument, with the construction of a memorial. Taking in account the relevance of the monument and the growth of the region, we conclude that the return of the Landmark to its place of origin, in conjunction with other cultural resources, could attract a flow of cultural tourists. This fact could be, as the theory suggests, characterized as market or niche innovation, as the region is dominated by the sun and sea and wind sports tourism / Tendo como refer?ncia os fundamentos dos sistemas regionais de inova??o (RIS) e nas diretrizes pol?ticas definidas no programa de regionaliza??o implantado pelo governo federal, este estudo se concentrou na an?lise da denominada "Regi?o do Marco", litoral norte do Polo Costa das Dunas-RN, a fim de indicar de que forma os recursos hist?rico-culturais podem fundamentar inova??o no turismo na regi?o, aqui representada pelos munic?pios de Pedra Grande e S?o Miguel do Gostoso. A pesquisa tem car?ter descritivo, utilizando metodologia qualitativa no levantamento e an?lise de informa??es, configurando-se, ainda, como um estudo de caso. Os dados foram levantados a partir de pesquisa bibliogr?fica, documental, entrevista semiestruturada e, principalmente, pelo m?todo de observa??o participante. Os resultados mostram uma grande diversidade de recursos culturais na regi?o, tanto materiais como imateriais, que contudo se encontram desarticulados, e precisam ser trabalhados para que possam ser inclu?dos na cadeia produtiva do turismo. A principal oportunidade de inova??o diz respeito ? volta do Marco ? regi?o, monumento de valor inestim?vel, com a constru??o de um memorial. Pela relev?ncia do monumento e pela evidencia??o da regi?o, conclu?mos que a volta do Marco ao seu local de origem, em articula??o com os demais recursos culturais, poder? atrair um fluxo de turistas culturais, caracterizando-se assim, como sugere a teoria, como inova??o de mercado ou nicho, em um regi?o dominada pelo turismo de sol e mar e de esportes ? vela
