The thesis "Determinants of environmental concern" is a quantitative analysis that deals with determinants of environmental concern, the scale of new ecological paradigm, environmental behavior and ecological activism. It uses data from an international survey "International Social Survey Project Environment III" from year 2010. Strong predictors came out from the analysis, mainly cultural differences of the respondents and education. The inhabitants of Western Europe and English speaking countries have the strongest environmental concern, in contrast, in post communist countries of Eastern Europe is this concern the smallest. Post materialists and inhabitants of the richer countries have stronger environmental concern and they believe more in science and progress solving ecological problems. The perception of consequences of ecological problems on everyday life is also a strong determinant from which suffers mostly localities out of Europe. The recycling waste is most often carried away in Western Europe and English speaking countries. A strong correlation is between finished education and environmental concern as well as ecological activism, there is a weaker connection to saving natural resources.

Shaped by the Mission: Influence of the Combat Deployment in Afghanistan on the Transformation of the Czech Armed Forces Abstract The thesis is dedicated to the operations of Czech Army in Afghanistan during 2002-2012 and it studies the influence that the deployment has had on the ongoing transformation of Czech Armed forces. The work builds upon a theoretical frame of postmodern paradigm studying various trends that accompany a shift from modern to postmodern militaries. Part of the study is dedicated to acquiring empirical knowledge about the changes that deployment to Afghanistan has brought to Czech army. Later the theoretical predictions are confronted with the real development of Czech armed forces and it is argued that the impact deployment to Afghanistan had on Czech armed forces has brought the army closer to the concept of postmodern military.

[pt] O presente trabalho tem por objetivo analisar as potencialidades da justiça restaurativa no ordenamento jurídico brasileiro. Partindo do pressuposto de que o sistema criminal está em crise de legitimidade, pelo foco na manutenção do viés punitivo-repressivo e pelo discurso deste paradigma. Neste sentido, indaga-se se a proposta restaurativa pode representar um caminho mais humanizador e apto à resolução de conflitos na seara criminal. Para tanto, buscou-se inicialmente, entender a crise do sistema penal, para posteriormente, desvendar as origens do paradigma restaurativo, como movimento internacional, comparando-o na oportunidade, com o paradigma retributivo. Buscou-se analisar ainda o surgimento da justiça restaurativa no ordenamento jurídico brasileiro, estabelecendo-se um panorama geral de aplicação, a fim de que fossem evidenciadas as condições de seu desenvolvimento. Por fim, demonstrou-se através de pesquisas viabilizadas pelo Conselho Nacional de Justiça, as particularidades dos projetos pioneiros de Justiça Restaurativa, bem como, verificou-se o estado da arte do movimento restaurativo no sistema judicial, com suas potencialidades e desafios na construção da brasilidade restaurativa, que demonstra um déficit democrático atrelado a uma cultura jurídica brasileira de expansionismo da rede de controle penal. / [en] The present work aims to analyze the potential of restorative justice in the Brazilian legal system. Assuming that the criminal system is in crisis of legitimacy, due to the focus on maintaining the punitive-repressive bias and the discourse of this paradigm. In this sense, it is questioned whether the restorative proposal can represent a more humanizing and apt path to conflict resolution in the criminal field. Therefore, we initially sought to understand the crisis of the penal system, and later, to unveil the origins of the restorative paradigm, as an international movement, comparing it at the opportunity, with the retributive paradigm. It was also sought to analyze the emergence of restorative justice in the Brazilian legal system, establishing an overview of its application, so that the conditions of its development were evidenced. Finally, it was demonstrated through research made possible by the National Council of Justice, the particularities of the pioneering projects of Restorative Justice, as well as, the state of the art of the restorative movement in the judicial system, with its potentialities and challenges in the construction of the restorative Brazilianity, which demonstrates a democratic deficit linked to a Brazilian legal culture of expansionism of the penal control network.

[pt] Uma parcela significativa do evangelicalismo brasileiro, o neopentecostalismo, herdado da América do Norte, adere à Teologia da Prosperidade, cujos pressupostos vão de encontro ao núcleo da identidade cristã, a Teologia da Graça. Esta tese propõe analisar os fatores econômicos, políticos, sociais e religiosos que contribuíram para a mudança de paradigma, fazendo com que uma vertente do evangelicalismo pentecostal migrasse da religiosidade pautada na resignação para uma forma de manifestação religiosa norteada pela economia de mercado, o capital e o lucro, distanciando-o da sua origem de santidade e da Teologia da Graça, conforme ensinadas pelo pai do avivamento de santidade ou perfeição cristã, John Wesley e o aproximando do secularismo. Como instrumento de verificação para alcançar o resultado esperado, os elementos norteadores desta pesquisa estão alicerçados na Teologia Sistemática e na corroboração da História, da Sociologia e da Antropologia. / [en] A meaningful parcel of Brazilian evangelicalism, the Neopentecostalism, inherited from North America, adheres to the Theology of Prosperity, whose presuppositions stand against the core of the Christian identity, the Theology of Grace. This thesis proposes to analyze the economic, political, social and religious factors that contributed to a change of paradigm, making that stream of Pentecostal evangelicalism migrated from the religiosity regulated by resignation to a form of religious manifestation guided by market economy, the capital and profit, keeping it away from its origin of holiness and from the Theology of Grace, as they were taught by the father of Sanctity Revival or Christian Perfection, John Wesley, and approaching it to secularism. As instrument of verification to reach the expected results, the guiding elements of this research have as background the Systematic Theology and the corroboration of History, Sociology and Anthropology.

Esta tesis toma el enfoque del análisis hermenéutico de la técnica y de la experiencia estética del arte de acción desde el origen de la cultura tecnocientífica occidental, pues nos interesa hallar las respuestas que nos guíen hacia el entendimiento de ¿Qué es el arte de acción? ¿Cuál es su sentido? ¿Por qué surge en el tiempo postmoderno del arte contemporáneo? Y así, al final, alcanzar el código del sentido lógico que mueve las múltiples y diversas modalidades de la sintaxis del arte de acción. Cuando, desde la presencia del cuerpo y de la acción humana, se establecen nuevas técnicas de creación y nuevos medios de producción de la escultura en la perspectiva de tiempo real de la realidad cotidiana; cuando, el performer utiliza y maneja, con la sensibilidad e intuición de su saber hacer técnico, conceptos que son herramientas creativas; cuando, en el juego estético del collage de sus acciones, produce una sintaxis abierta, indeterminada y difusa, provocando múltiples significados en la imaginación del espectador. La lógica difusa resulta ser una estructura de la formalización del pensamiento contemporáneo, correlativa y útil para entender, describir y plantear el espacio creativo del arte de acción, procurando un modo más adecuado que el método racionalista. Efectivamente, el sistema de la lógica difusa permite analizar, identificar e integrar en su estructura formal, entre otras cosas, la complejidad del proceso creativo que desde la subjetividad, la sensibilidad y la intuición, desarrolla el momentum del arte de acción. Síntesis en la que, en este sentido, queda al fin validado el saber hacer técnico del arte de acción como parte de la ciencia, que describe una parte esencial de la naturaleza del arte relacionada con el conocimiento intuitivo, sensible y poético de las potencias del ingenio del artista. / Olmos Ortega, N.

Magistro baigiamojo darbo objektas – su maistu susijusios kultūrinės reikšmės maisto reklamose. Darbo tikslas – teoriškai nustatyti reklamoje kuriamas su maistu susijusias kultūrines reikšmes ir jas išanalizuoti remiantis semiotinio metodo instrumentarijumi. Darbo uždaviniai: aptarti semiotikos mokyklas – jų raidą, pagrindines kryptis, svarbiausius autorius, metodo instrumentarijų, atskleisti pagrindines sąvokas; pristatyti reklamą, jos raidą, pagrindinius principus ir vaidmenį šiuolaikinėje vartotojų visuomenėje, atskleisti semiotinį požiūrį į reklamą; ištirti maisto funkcijas šiuolaikinėje visuomenėje ir su maistu susijusias reikšmes skritinguose kultūros sluoksniuose; taikant semiotinį metodą, išanalizuoti, kaip maisto reklamose kuriama kultūrinė reikšmė, kokie socialiniai ir kultūriniai kodai veikia reikšmės kūrime. Išanalizavus mokslinę literatūrą, atskleista, kad semiotikos modelis yra tinkamas kultūrinių reikšmių kūrimui reklamoje tirti. Pristatant su maistu susijusias kultūrines reikšmes, analizuota sociologijos, antropologijos, kultūros studijų ir kitų mokslo sričių literatūra, o jai susisteminti panaudotas Geerto Hofstede‘o daugiasluoksnis kultūros modelis (Hofstede, 1984). Maistas atlieka diferenciacijos funkciją tarp kultūrų ir kultūros viduje – tarp jos skirtingų sluoksnių, o kai kuriose kultūrose – ir tarp individų. Šiuolaikinėje modernioje visuomenėje jis taip pat yra privačią ir viešąją erdvę, o kartu – ir moteriškąją bei vyriškąją sritį skiriantis elementas...

This study attempts to theoretically establish the food-related cultural meanings that are being created via advertisements and to analyze them using the instrumentation of the semiotic method. In this study two main semiotic schools are introduced, including their development, main directions, most significant authors, the instrumentation of the method, main concepts that will be used. There has been a concept of advertising as such analyzed, also its development, main principles and the role it plays in a consumer society. The functions of food in a contemporary society and food-related meanings in different cultural layers have been investigated. It was investigated both how food advertising creates the cultural meaning and what social/cultural codes work in this process by using the semiotic method. The analyzed scientific studies show that the semiotic model is suitable for exhibiting the creation of cultural meanings in advertising. In order to examine the food-related cultural meanings, various works of sociology, anthropology, culture and other fields of science were taken into account. The findings of those works were systematized using the Geert Hofstede’s model (Hofstede, 1984). Food separates both the cultures and layers or individuals in a culture from each other. In the contemporary society, food is a marker of private and public spaces, as well as feminine and masculine fields. Food... [to full text]

<p>Ovim se istraživanjem na primeru osnovnih predikata (glagola) percepcije ruskog i srpskog jezika odgovara na pitanja vezana za sistemske odnose u oblasti leksike, klasifikaciju jezičkih jedinica, definisanje leksema, međusobnu zavisnost značenja leksema i njihovih morfolo&scaron;kih i sintaksičkih obeležja. Osnovni predikati (glagoli) percepcije ruskog i srpskog jezika pozicioniraju se unutar semantičkih paradigmi, zasnovanih na interakciji diferencijalnih i zajedničkih komponenata značenja svojih članova. Članovi paradigmi izdvajaju se na osnovu kriterijuma određenih u skladu s principima organizacije centra i periferije leksičkog sistema. Pozicioniranje izdvojenih predstavnika vizuelne, auditivne, olfaktorne, gustativne i taktilne percepcije, kao i njihovih vidskih korelata, rezultira utvrđivanjem strukture paradigmi i smerova semantičke derivacije u njima.</p> / <p>This dissertation focuses on systemic relationships among the basic predicates (verbs) of perception in Russian and Serbian. It investigates issues related to the lexicon, the classification of linguistic units, the relationships between the meanings of lexemes and their morphological and syntactic features, as well as the definition of the main members of the analysed lexico-semantic group. The basic predicates of perception in Russian and Serbian are positioned within the semantic paradigms, based on the interaction of differential and general components of meaning of their members. The members of the paradigms are selected based on criteria established in accordance with the principle of the organization of lexical systems into core and periphery. The positioning of the selected representatives of visual, auditory, olfactory, gustative and tactile perception, as well as their aspectual correlates, results in determining the structure of the paradigms and the directions of semantic derivation in them.</p>

No. of bitstreams: 1 Alexandre Cerullo.pdf: 815586 bytes, checksum: 5a64def1f4e7c7eaee24b0876f2683f0 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2008-05-20 / This study aims at introducing the community material law in a systematic way and at showing given its nature and particularities it is part of the Brazilian legal system along with the private and public laws, being established as a new branch of law. Thus, this justifies the study due to the need of examining the new Brazilian legal system and to the lack of systematization of the new branch, disclosing common points of the main legislations it comprises, forming a sole body. As a backdrop, the event surveyed takes into consideration the breaking of paradigms and the deficiency of the private and public laws in protecting goods, and collective rights. At the forefront, it proposes and indicates particularities of the community material law that best meet the responses expected by the community that, also due to their nature, are not similar to those of the individuals and the State. Based on that, they become cohesive and are better tools to meet their needs, qualifying it as a new branch of law. The theoretical-methodological procedure proposes its systematization by using the holistic theory of law (holistic philosophy) and shows that the current paradigm is not based on linear or reductionist theories, but that all the social problems faced by the science of law are part of a sole issue: human life s sustainability. This is why the private and public laws are regarded for linear or reductionist questions, and the community material law is regarded as a new branch of law, with unique qualities for holistic matters. Then, the major pieces of collective legislation are examined and compared with the previous paradigms and the current one. The evolution is analyzed as well as an attempt is made in order to categorize the new branch of law. In conclusion, we observe that the community material law complements the Brazilian legal system, forming a trilogy with the private and public laws / O objetivo desse estudo é apresentar sistematicamente o direito material coletivo e, por sua natureza e particularidades, demonstrar que compõe o ordenamento jurídico brasileiro ao lado do direito privado e do público, como novo ramo do direito. Com a inserção do direito material coletivo, justifica-se esse estudo frente à necessidade de examinar a nova ordem jurídica brasileira e pela carência de sistematização desse novo ramo do direito, ainda que nos moldes aqui propostos, que desvende pontos comuns das principais legislações que o compõem, formando um só corpo. A hipótese pesquisada, em plano de fundo, considera a quebra de paradigmas e a insuficiência do direito privado e do público na tutela de bens e direitos coletivos. No plano principal, propõe e indica particularidades do direito material coletivo que melhor atendam às respostas exigidas pela coletividade que, também pela sua natureza, não se assemelham àquelas do particular ou do Estado. A partir daí, se tornam coesas e melhor servem de instrumentos para atender às suas necessidades, qualificando-o como novo ramo do direito. O procedimento teórico-metodológico propõe sua sistematização utilizando a teoria holística do direito (filosofia holística) e demonstra que o atual paradigma não está fundado em teorias lineares ou reducionistas, mas todos os problemas sociais a serem enfrentados pela ciência do direito fazem parte de um único problema, a sustentabilidade da vida humana. Daí consideraremos o direito privado e o público para as questões lineares ou reducionistas e o direito material coletivo, como novo ramo do direito, com predicados ímpares, para as holísticas. Em seguida, faz-se exame dos principais diplomas legais coletivos, confrontando-os com os paradigmas anteriores e o atual, sua evolução e busca seu enquadramento no novo ramo do direito e, concluindo, verifica-se que o direito material coletivo vem complementar o ordenamento jurídico brasileiro, compondo uma trilogia com o direito privado e o público
