Segregerande praktiker på bostadsmarknaden / Segregating practices in the housing market

Durrani, Sonia January 2020 (has links)
The purpose of this thesis was to study the requirement profile for obtaining a newly produced rental apartment via the municipal housing queue in Stockholm and what perceptions and differences about the geographical areas of the housing are conveyed in the process. This has been researched in relation to the new housing policy regarding the political incitement of market rents in Sweden. This study was conducted with a focus on vulnerable groups in society. In this study, a qualitative content analysis was used as the research method and the empirical data consists of rental advertisements from the statistical service of The Stockholm Housing Agency. The selected theories that have been applied in the analysis are Goffman's theory of stigma and the theory of social constructivism. The results of the study show that there is a lack of suitable and available forms of housing for low-income households in the municipal housing market as the majority of landlords do not accept unemployment insurance, social welfare or sickness benefit as a source of income. As an outcome, it is not possible to obtain a rental apartment via the municipal queue if you belong to that category of income. The results also show segregating patterns in the landlords' qualification requirements, as they demand a significantly higher gross income for housing in residential areas with a high socio-economic status, while requirements are more relaxed in areas with lower incomes. The results also show that the marketing of the housing is clearly aimed at a specific target group through language use. In summary, the results show that segregating practices take place in the municipal housing market as low-income households are not given access to resource-rich areas due to high income requirements and a strategic marketing that communicates what type of people are ideal for living in the area.

[pt] O NOVO BANCO DE DESENVOLVIMENTO E O CONSELHO EMPRESARIAL DO BRICS: CONVERGÊNCIAS E INTERSEÇÕES / [en] THE NEW DEVELOPMENT BANK AND THE BRICS BUSINESS COUNCIL: CONVERGENCIES AND INTERSECTIONS

RAFAELA MELLO RODRIGUES DE SA 14 June 2022 (has links)
[pt] Com o fortalecimento do agrupamento BRICS, diversos mecanismos de diálogo foram estabelecidos entre os países. A principal iniciativa institucional constituída neste âmbito foi a fundação do Novo Banco de Desenvolvimento (NBD), que visa mobilizar recursos para projetos de infraestrutura e desenvolvimento sustentável. Porém, é importante destacar o arranjo estabelecido em torno dos grupos empresariais, que inicialmente se traduziu na criação do Fórum Empresarial do BRICS, e posteriormente se materializou na formação do Conselho Empresarial do BRICS (CEBRICS), com o intuito de promover os laços comerciais, de negócios e de investimento entre as comunidades empresariais dos cinco países. Se por um lado, as pesquisas sobre a atuação do NBD são realizadas em diversos âmbitos acadêmicos, por outro lado, o estudo sobre o conselho empresarial não vêm recebendo tanta atenção da academia. A partir de uma revisão de literatura sobre Estado, mercado e instituições dentro da área de Economia Política Internacional, a presente pesquisa visa compreender as convergências entre estes dois arranjos, a fim de examinar as dinâmicas entre o banco e o conselho, sob à ótica de reflexões marxistas e gramscianas sobre as relações entre o Estado e os grupos empresariais. Nesse sentido, indaga-se em que medida setores, projetos e temas estratégicos expressados no CEBRICS são convergentes com a forma de atuação e os projetos financiados pelo NBD. Para isso, realizamos uma pesquisa documental nos relatórios disponibilizados, uma análise detalhada dos projetos do banco, bem como entrevistas com atores representativos. O conselho será interpretado como um arranjo que traduz as demandas e os interesses dos grupos empresariais do BRICS. O NBD será compreendido como o principal esforço institucional realizado pelos Estados do BRICS em busca de internacionalizar demandas e forças sociais em forma de um arcabouço institucional multilateral. / [en] With the strengthening of the BRICS grouping, several dialogue mechanisms have been established among the countries. The main institutional initiative was the founding of the New Development Bank (NDB), which aims to mobilize resources for infrastructure and sustainable development projects. However, it is also important to highlight the arrangement established around the business groups of these countries, which initially led to the creation of the BRICS Business Forum, and later materialized in the formation of the BRICS Business Council (BBC), which aims to promote commercial, business, and investment ties between the business communities of the five countries. If, on the one hand, research on the work of the NDB is carried out in various academic spheres, on the other hand, the study of the business council has not received as much attention from the academy. Based on a literature review on discussions about the state and capitalism within the field of International Political Economy, this research aims to understand the possible points of contact between these two arrangements, in order to examine the dynamics between the bank and the council, from the perspective of Marxist and Gramscian reflections on the relations between the state and business groups. In this sense, we ask to what extent sectors, projects, and strategic themes expressed in BBC converge with the way of acting and the projects financed by the NDB. To this end, we conducted documental research on the reports made available, a detailed analysis of the bank s projects, and interviews with representative actors. The council will be interpreted as an arrangement that translates the demands and interests of the BRICS business groups as a whole. In turn, the NDB will be understood as the main institutional effort made by the BRICS states to internationalize social demands and forces in the form of a multilateral institutional framework.

As liberdades instrumentais de Amartya Sen e os novos indicadores de desenvolvimento

Correa Junior, Carlos Barbosa 18 April 2012 (has links)
Made available in DSpace on 2016-04-25T16:44:27Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 1 Carlos Barbosa Correa Junior.pdf: 4162973 bytes, checksum: 05ccad5e222e000a4e598f776f300fe6 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2012-04-18 / In recent decades, as well as wealth, health, quality of life, safety or education, the concept of development reaches a new paradigm by including a key variable, represented by the question of intergenerational preservation of the environment. Thus, a modern concept of sustainable development gains strength. The concept of development is to express ethical and economic aspirations of equitable, balanced and sustainable goods and benefits, or produced and offered by the planet. It is observed, moreover, a heterogeneity in the conceptual drawing tools and indicators of the evaluation of development. In view of Amartya Sen, development is not described as an increase in aggregate income of a nation or a per capita income of the population, but as the expansion of the freedoms that individuals enjoy. The increased freedom includes both the means and the end of development, because the expansion of freedom leads to the development and the development of society, in turn, promotes increased freedoms. Amartya Sen highlights five instrumental freedoms construed as rights and opportunities that help promote overall capacity of a person: political freedoms, economic facilities, social opportunities, transparency guarantees and protective security. In this context, the general objective of this study is to comparatively study, based on archival research and bibliography, a list of new indicators of development, analyzed and synthesized from the five instrumental freedoms of Amartya Sen. The results meet the proposed objectives and may well be a model in the discussion on the construction, analysis and use of new indicators of development / Nas últimas décadas, além da riqueza, saúde, qualidade de vida, segurança ou educação, a concepção do desenvolvimento alcança um novo paradigma ao incluir uma variável fundamental, representada pela questão intergeracional da preservação do meio ambiente. Sendo assim, uma moderna concepção de um desenvolvimento sustentável ganha força. A concepção do desenvolvimento passa a exprimir anseios éticos e econômicos de uma distribuição equitativa, equilibrada e sustentável dos bens e benefícios produzidos e ou oferecidos pelo planeta. Observa-se, por outro lado, uma heterogeneidade conceitual na elaboração de ferramentas e indicadores da avaliação desse desenvolvimento. Na perspectiva de Amartya Sen, o desenvolvimento não é descrito como um aumento da renda agregada de uma nação ou de uma renda per capita da população, mas sim como a ampliação das liberdades que os indivíduos desfrutam. O aumento da liberdade compreende tanto o meio quanto o fim do desenvolvimento, pois a ampliação das liberdades leva ao desenvolvimento e o desenvolvimento da sociedade, por sua vez, promove a ampliação das liberdades. Amartya Sen destaca cinco liberdades instrumentais entendidas como direitos e oportunidades que ajudam a promover a capacidade geral de uma pessoa: as liberdades políticas, as facilidades econômicas, as oportunidades sociais, as garantias de transparência e a segurança protetora. Nesse contexto, o objetivo geral desta pesquisa é o de estudar comparativamente, com base em pesquisa documental e bibliográfica, um rol de novos indicadores de desenvolvimento, analisados e sintetizados a partir das cinco liberdades instrumentais de Amartya Sen. Os resultados obtidos atendem aos objetivos propostos e podem vir a constituir um modelo na discussão sobre a construção, análise e utilização de novos indicadores de desenvolvimento

Moeda, poder e rivalidade interestatal : o novo banco de desenvolvimento dos BRICS

Gaiotto, Felipe Camargo January 2017 (has links)
A crise financeira de 2007-2008 proporcionou perdas de legitimidade política e econômica aos EUA no sistema interestatal. Até então, o modelo de organização socioeconômica estadunidense era hegemônico na economia-mundo capitalista. Mas, mais do que um modelo de capitalismo, as desregulações financeiras e a defesa excessiva da austeridade orçamentária para os demais Estados foram adotadas pelos EUA com o objetivo de assegurar a emissão exclusiva da moeda internacional dos sistemas financeiro e monetário internacional. A possível substituição do dólar como fundamento do padrão monetário desses sistemas diminuiria a autonomia relativa dos EUA. Assim, eles mantiveram as vantagens políticas e econômicas propiciadas pelo poder monetário e pelo estadismo monetário e asseguraram a manutenção da configuração hierárquica favorável desse sistema interestatal. Por outro lado, essa crise estimulou a formação de novas alianças geopolíticas e novas relações de cooperação entre Estados localizados na semiperiferia e na periferia da economia-mundo. Esses Estados propõem, em maior ou menor grau, outros modelos de desenvolvimento e procuram mudar a configuração hierárquica interestatal, com uma aposta no multilateralismo. O Novo Banco de Desenvolvimento (NBD) criado pelos BRICS é uma das alternativas que surgiram como possibilidades de reordenamento hierárquico nesse sistema, começando o elo conflito em torno da moeda e das finanças. Desse modo, o objetivo geral desta tese doutoral é avaliar qual a viabilidade de possíveis mudanças nas relações de poder monetário e de estadismo monetário no sistema interestatal capitalista a partir do NBD dos BRICS. Para tanto, analisa-se de que maneira, em geral, a relação entre moeda e poder influencia na hierarquia de Estados e moedas no sistema interestatal da economia-mundo capitalista. Da mesma forma, examina-se especificamente o processo de construção do poder monetário e do estadismo monetário dos Estados Unidos a partir da construção do regime Dólar-Wall Street e de que forma essa estratégia contribuiu, de forma não intencional, para enfraquecer a própria hegemonia estadunidense no pós-crise. E, por fim, avalia-se a capacidade da influência do NBD para a reforma monetária e financeira internacional no sentido de maior multilateralismo. Nesse processo, o NBD representa uma alternativa de acesso a financiamento para a acumulação autônoma de capital e de defesa contra a manipulação monetária e financeira por parte dos Estados do núcleo orgânico desse sistema, em particular os EUA. Da mesma forma, o NBD reforça as demandas para reformar o sistema financeiro e monetário internacional, o que pode alterar a capacidade de exercício do poder monetário estadunidense e suas consequentes vantagens políticas e econômicas. Assim, haveria uma mudança qualitativa na hierarquia desse núcleo orgânico. A possível substituição, ou perda de importância, do dólar diminuiria a autonomia relativa dos EUA e contribuiria para mudanças na configuração hegemônica da economia-mundo capitalista. / The financial crisis of 2007-2008 has resulted in loss of political and economic legitimacy to the United States in the inter-state system. Until then, the model of US socioeconomic organization was hegemonic in the capitalist world-economy. Yet, more than a model of capitalism, financial deregulation and excessive apologizing of budgetary austerity for other states were adopted by the United States to ensure the exclusive issuance of the international currency in the international financial and monetary systems. The possible substitution of the dollar as the basis for the monetary standard of these systems would diminish the relative autonomy of the United States. Thus, they keep the political and economic advantages granted by monetary power and monetary statecraft, and ensured the maintenance of the favorable hierarchical configuration of that interstate system. On the other hand, this crisis stimulated the formation of new geopolitical alliances and new relations of cooperation between states located in the semiperiphery and in the periphery of the world-economy. These states propose, to a greater or lesser extent, other models of development, and seek to change the inter-state hierarchical configuration, with a focus on multilateralism. The New Development Bank (NDB) created by the BRICS is one of the alternatives that emerged as a possibility of hierarchical rearrangement in this system, starting with the monetary and financial conflicts. Thus, the general objective of this Ph.D. dissertation is to evaluate the viability of possible changes in the relations of monetary power and monetary statecraft in the capitalist interstate system by the creation of the BRICS’ NDB. In order to do so, it is analyzed how, in general, the relation between money and power influences the hierarchy of states and currencies in the interstate system of the capitalist world-economy. Likewise, the process of constructing monetary power and monetary statescraft in the United States starting with the construction of the Dollar-Wall Street regime, and in which way this strategy has unintentionally contributed to weaken the hegemony itself in the post-crisis period, is equally dealt with. And last, but not least, the capacity of the NDB's influence on the international monetary and financial reform towards greater multilateralism is evaluated. In this process, the NDB represents an alternative to access financing for the autonomous accumulation of capital and defense against monetary and financial manipulation by the States of the organic core of this interstate system, in particular the US. Along the same lines, the NDB reinforces the demands to reform the international financial and monetary systems, which may alter the capacity of the US to exert monetary power and receive its consequent political and economic advantages. Thus, there would be a qualitative change in the hierarchy of this organic core. The possible substitution or loss of importance of the dollar would diminish the relative autonomy of the US and contribute to changes in the hegemonic configuration of the capitalist world-economy.

[en] EMERGING COUNTRIES IN THE POST-2008 CRISIS: FILLING THE GAP IN FINANCING FOR DEVELOPMENT / [pt] PAÍSES EMERGENTES NO PÓS-CRISE DE 2008: INVESTIMENTOS EM FINANCIAMENTO PARA O DESENVOLVIMENTO

CLARICE FRAZAO ALEXANDRE 31 January 2019 (has links)
[pt] Após a crise financeira e econômica de 2008, países emergentes buscaram traduzir seu novo peso econômico em influência política. Instituições tradicionais criadas após a II Guerra Mundial, em particular nas esferas econômicas e financeiras, não mais representativas do cenário econômico mundial, seriam questionadas por economias emergentes. China, Índia, Brasil, Rússia e África do Sul (os BRICS) defenderam a adoção de reformas à estrutura institucional da ordem mundial liberal, as quais não foram totalmente alcançadas. Essa dissertação analisa o engajamento dos países emergentes a ordem mundial após a crise de 2008, particularmente em relação à governança econômica e financeira. O argumento central baseia-se na percepção de que países emergentes vêm, desde a crise de 2008, articulando maneiras de impactar a atual ordem liberal mundial, como compreendido pelo conceito de mundo multiplex, desenvolvido por Amitav Acharya (2014; 2017). Ao longo da análise da nova posição dos países emergentes na ordem mundial, por meio de uma discussão do fortalecimento do seu papel em fóruns como o G20 e a criação de grupos como o do BRICS, essa dissertação tratará de dois estudos de caso: (i) a criação do Novo Banco de Desenvolvimento, em 2014, por Brasil, Rússia, Índia, China e África do Sul, e; (ii) a criação do Banco Asiático de Infraestrutura e Investimento, em 2015, por iniciativa da China. / [en] After the 2008 financial and economic crises, emerging countries channeled their newly found economic resilience into political leverage. Traditional institutions created after World War II, particularly those in the economic and financial spheres, which were no longer representative of the new economic setting, would be questioned by emerging economies. China, India, Brazil, Russia and South Africa (the BRICS) have championed reforms to the institutional structure of the liberal world order, which have not been entirely met. This dissertation aims to shed light on the engagement of emerging countries in world order after the 2008 crisis, particularly in the economic and financial global governance. The main argument is that emerging countries have, since the 2008 crisis, been articulating ways to impact the current liberal world order as captured by the concept of multiplex world, developed by Amitav Acharya (2014, 2017). Along the analyses of the current greater role of developing countries in world order, through a discussion of the new found role of forums such as the G20 and the creation of groups such as the BRICS, the dissertation will focus on two case studies: (i) the creation of the New Development Bank, in 2014 by the Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa, and; (ii) the creation of the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank, in 2015 fostered by China.

China tries within the current internationl framework dominated by the US to gain more power in the IMF

Liehmann, Viktoria January 2015 (has links)
This thesis analyses whether China tries to gain more power in the IMF staying within the current international U.S.-dominated system. The analysis focuses on China's behavior in the IMF during the reform process of the last decade. The thesis examines the ways in which China can gain more power staying in the IMF. However, current power structures make it difficult to implement changes and China might therefore use political groups such as the BRICS and their New Development Bank to exert pressure. But the intention of the BRICS is not to overthrow the system but to reform it. Using official statements and speeches delivered by Chinese, U.S. or IMF staff in the IMF as well as articles published in newspapers Chinese claims and US reactions were analyzed. The results suggest that China stays within the international system and does not try to overthrow it. Nevertheless, pressure is created through the establishment of the New Development Bank (NDB) and the Asian Infrastructure and Investment Bank (AIIB). The intention of this thesis is to give a current account of Chinese behavior in the international community, supporting the understanding of underlying dynamics. Keywords IMF, China, Reforms, BRICS, New Development Bank, Asian Infrastructure and Investment Bank, international system, challenge
