No. of bitstreams: 1 dissertacao completa de Thiago Dias bloqueado.pdf: 1982337 bytes, checksum: ac72cb12412bdf69b440df2515085143 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2011-07-01 / The respective work has as prism to analyze a series of testimonies given by military officers who participated in the political events in Brazil that culminated on the 31st of March of 1964. The deponents had a relevant role during the 21 years of the military government. The goal of the analysis concentrates on notes that exhibit throughout the testimonies, the resentments that the men in uniform exposed in their words. Resentments intensified mostly in the anticommunism and in the bad reputation the military forces had before the society after the end of the regime. The work is structured in showing how it began in the Brazilian army the role of an institution that was supposed to practice a direct political participation in the country, besides seeing itself like the source of moral reserve of the nation and guardian of the precepts of patriotism and nationalism. Being this done to demonstrate that the intervention which occurred in 1964 was not a result of an immediacy or by foreign orders in collusion with the national capital, where the soldiers would be mere playthings. The intervention needs to be analyzed from an optics that realizes the motives and intentions that made the military forces deprive the president John Goulart from the power. Among the testimonies it will also be analyzed the question of the military officers memory regarding subjects directly connected to the period: the reason of the destitution of João Goulart, the repression to the opponents, the question of torture and other recurrent subjects to the analyzed period. Among the testimonies it will also be analyzed the question of the memory of the military officers regarding subjects directly connected to the period: the reason of deposing João Goulart, the repression to the opponents, the question of torture and other recurrent subjects to the analyzed period. The conclusion of the work will be originated from a direct analysis of the testimonies where it is exposed in an explicit or implicit way, the resentments of the military officers regarding the occurrences before and after the events of the 31st of March of 1964 / O respectivo trabalho tem como prisma analisar uma série de depoimentos dados por militares que participaram dos acontecimentos políticos no Brasil, que culminaram no 31 de março de 1964. Os depoentes tiveram um papel relevante durante os 21 anos de governo militar. A marca da análise fixa-se em apontamentos que mostrem dentro dos depoimentos os ressentimentos que os homens de farda expuseram em suas falas. Ressentimentos galgados principalmente no anticomunismo e na visão ruim que as forças armadas ficaram perante a sociedade após o fim do regime.O trabalho se estrutura mostrando como se iniciou no exército brasileiro o papel de uma instituição que deveria exercer uma participação política direta no país, além de se ver como a fonte da reserva moral da nação e guardiã dos preceitos de patriotismo e nacionalismo. Isso feito para mostrar que a intervenção ocorrida em 1964 não foi fruto de imediatismos ou por ordenação estrangeira em conluio com o capital nacional, onde os militares seriam meros joguetes. A intervenção precisa ser analisada a partir de uma ótica que perceba os motivos e intenções que fizeram as Forças Armadas destituírem do poder o presidente João Goulart. Dentro dos depoimentos também será analisada a questão da memória dos militares no tocante a assuntos estreitamente ligados ao período: o porquê da derrubada de João Goulart, a repressão aos opositores, a questão da tortura e outros assuntos recorrentes ao período analisado. O fechamento do trabalho vai dar-se a partir de uma análise direta nos depoimentos onde está exposto de maneira explícita ou implícita os ressentimentos dos militares no tocante aos ocorridos antes e após os acontecimentos do 31 de março de 1964

<p>Uppsatsens syfte är att analysera och diskutera vad som legat till grund för organisering av arméns insatsförband insatsorganisations år 2009 (IO 09). Hur ser organisationsstrukturen ut och vilka faktorer har påverkat organiseringen av IO 09? Uppgiftens komplexitet innebar att jag närmade mig problemformuleringen från olika perspektiv. Studien omfattar därmed en mångsidig kvalitativ analys av data från både styrdokument och intervjuer.</p><p>Studien visar att det framförallt är de klassiska ”byråkratiska teoretiska” perspektiven som dominerar organisationsdesignen inom arméns insatsorganisation 2009. Vidare förefaller det finnas en arketyp för hur ett förband i armén skall vara organiserat. Denna arketyp omfattas sannolikt av en organisationsstruktur om fyra ledningsnivåer och ett kontrollspann om fyra eller fem enheter i alla nivåer. Signifikant för maskinbyråkratimodellen, vilken identifierats i nio av tio organisationsstrukturer i IO 09, är att denna organisationsdesign underlättar tydliga och klara ledningsförhållanden. Däremot har maskinbyråkratimodellen en del nackdelar såsom att modellen anses vara rigid och svår att förändra. Studien konstaterar därmed en intressant paradox d.v.s. kravet på att organisationerna i IO 09 skall vara modulära och flexibla samtidigt som organisationsstrukturerna i IO 09 antyder något annat. Ett annat resultat som studien visar är att det framförallt synes varit mänskliga faktorer tillsammans med omgivningskaraktäristiska faktorer som dominerat ”processerna” i organiseringen av IO 09, därmed också i allra högsta grad resultatet av hur arméns insatsorganisation 2009 är organiserad.</p> / <p>The purpose of this essay is to analyse and discuss what has been the basis of the organization of the mission-based armed forces in the year of the mission-based organization 2009 (IO 09). What does the organizational structure look like and what factors have affected the organization of IO 09? The complexity of the task demanded an approach to problem formulation from various perspectives. Thus, the study includes a diversified qualitative analysis of data collected from governing documents as well as interviews.</p><p>The study shows that, above all, it is the classic “bureaucratic theoretical” perspectives that dominate the organizational design within the mission-based organization 2009. Furthermore, there seems to exist an archetype with respect to how an army force battalion unit should be organized. This archetype does most likely represent an organizational structure comprised of four levels of leadership and a span of control of four or five units operating at all levels. Significant to the machine bureaucracy model, which has been identified in nine out of ten organizational structures in IO 09, is that this organizational design facilitates distinct and clear leadership conditions. However, the machine bureaucracy model demonstrates some disadvantages such as the fact that it is considered to be rigid and difficult to change. Hence, the study reveals an interesting paradox, that is, the requirements stipulated for the organizations in IO 09 are supposed to be modular and flexible while the organizational structures in IO 09 suggest something else. An additional result showed by the study is that, primarily, it appears that human factors combined with environmental characteristic factors have dominated the “processes” with regard to the organization of IO 09. Consequently, these factors have also seem to generated the outcome with regard to how the army’s mission-based organization 2009 has been organized.</p>

My diploma thesis focuses on women in the active reserve. Active reserve has become more popular due to new security threats and increasing need of people to be prepared when something goes wrong. In theoretical part I introduce the basic concepts that my work is based on. I focus on the active reserve from their origin till the nowadays. As for the empirical part, I have done ten semi-structured interviews with the women - members of the active reserve. The goal of this thesis is to find out what motivates the women to enter this primarily male-dominated area. Within my thesis I was also wondering what kind of reactions based on participation in active reserve my informants have to deal with and if there are any advantages or disadvantages connected with being the active reservist. Above all I was interested in personal experience of my informants. The keys words: active reserve, women, motivation, gender, army, interviews, militarization, military forces, army reserve
