The doctoral thesis is dealing with the phenomenon of economic crime in the context of Nepal, i.e. a developing country situated between two big emerging States, China and India. The study starts by explaining objectives and methods of the work, then it gives a short overview about the actual social, economic and political situation of Nepal. Chapter 3 concentrates on the definitions of "economic crime" and describes seven different types, starting with corruption and ending with money laundering. The explanation of these various types is completed by sketching the relevant working agencies the task of which is to fight against specific crimes. In the next chapter, the author at first shows the structure of the Nepali legal order and organisation, before he is looking at various laws/acts relating to economic crime. At the end of chapter 4, he is trying to compare those laws and to assess their stringency and efficiency. Chapter 5 deals more detailledly with relevant working agencies and is structured similar to the previous one, i.e. it explains the organisation, task and powers of each agency as well as their cooperation and, at the end, it tries to assess common features, parallels as well as divergencies between them. Chapter 6 is based upon field studies of the author. On the one hand, it shows the results from questionnaires which were handed out to a lot of persons in Nepal and which might give a rather broad impression about various aspects of economic crime in this country. On the other hand, a very prominent case (Governor and Director of Nepal Rastra Bank) is looked at more intensively, and the author has scanned important original documents in order to give a clear account of its main features. At last, by summing up theoretical, normative and empirical components the author has been caused to deliver some proposals of his own for remedies relating to economic crime, in particular concerning improvements of control mechanisms and establishing a single working agency with different departments for the fight against economic crime. / Die rechtswissenschaftliche Dissertation befasst sich mit dem Phänomen von "economic crime" (Wirtschaftsstraftaten) im Kontext Nepals, d.h. eines Entwicklungslandes, das zwischen zwei großen Schwellenländern, China und Indien, gelegen ist. Die Untersuchung beginnt mit einer Erläuterung von Zielen und Methoden der Arbeit und gibt dann einen kurzen Überblick über die gegenwärtige gesellschaftliche, wirtschaftliche und politische Lage Nepals. Kap. 3 widmet sich den Definitionen von "economic crime" und beschreibt sieben unterschiedliche Typen, von Korruption bis Geldwäsche. Die Darstellung dieser verschiedenen Typen wird ergäzt durch einen Blick auf die zuständigen staatlichen Stellen, die mit dem Kampf gegen "economic crime" befasst sind. Im nächsten Kapitel zeigt der Verfasser zunächst die Struktur der Rechtsordnung und Staatsorganisation Nepals auf, bevor er sich zahlreichen Rechtsvorschriften bezüglich "economic crime" zuwendet. Am Schluss des 4. Kapitels ist er bestrebt, diese Vorschriften zu vergleichen und ihre Stringenz und Effizienz zu würdigen. Kap. 5 befasst sich ausführlicher mit den zuständigen (Verwaltungs-) Stellen und ist ähnlich aufgebaut wie das vorherige, d.h. es erläutert Aufbau, Aufgabe und Befugnisse jeder Stelle sowie deren Zusammenarbeit und versucht schließlich, Gemeinsamkeiten, Parallelen und Unterschiede zu verdeutlichen. Kap. 6 stützt sich auf Feldstudien des Verfassers. Einerseits zeigt es die Ergebnisse einer Erhebung per Fragebogen auf, den eine Vielzahl von Personen in Nepal erhielten und ausfüllten und durch den wichtige Eindrücke über verschiedene Aspekte von "economic crime" in diesem Land vermittelt werden. Andererseits wird ein überaus prominenter Fall (Gouverneur und Direktor der Nepal Rastra Bank) eigehender erörtert und der Verfasser gibt im Text wichtige Originaldokumente wieder, um die wesentlichen Züge dieses Vorfalls deutlich zu machen. Abschließend stützt sich der Verfasser auf theoretische, normative und empirische Erkenntnisse zur Unterbreitung eigener Vorschläge für Maßnahmen ("remedies") gegen "economic crime", vor allem im Hinblick auf eine Verbesserung der Überwachung und des Vollzugs sowie der Errichtung einer einzigen zuständigen Behörde mit mehreren Abteilungen zum Kampf gegen Wirtschaftsstraftaten.

In recent years, the multilateral approach to the nuclear fuel cycle has been promoted as a potential mechanism for strengthening the nuclear non-proliferation regime. The multilateral approach has the potential to gain international favour over what has become traditional practice – the indigenous development and control of nuclear facilities. This thesis explores the way in which four states have responded to the revived attention on multilateral approaches to the nuclear fuel cycle, within the framework of the norm life cycle. The varying levels of support reflect broader international opinion on this issue, as many developing states remain concerned that they may be required to forgo not only the “inalienable right” to peaceful nuclear energy, but also the prospective economic and technological benefits of indigenous development in order to participate. However, as the risk of further proliferation and nuclear terrorism comes to the fore of international agendas, facilitating multilateral control of the most sensitive aspects of peaceful nuclear energy may be the key to strengthening the non-proliferation regime in the 21st century.

Its aim was to identify the concepts of learning acquisition which support the teaching practice; identify whether or not the teachers are aware of the theoretical evaluation proposals set up by SEDUC; identify the teachers’ reactions to these proposals and, observe whether or not the means and procedures of evaluation followed by the teachers correspond to the ones set up by SEDUC. A lot of studies have been developed on this subject, where there is a rich theoretical development of research and studies. However, what call our attention is the division between the output and the classroom practice. If the theoretical research has been developed, being the support for the creation of new evaluation proposals for public schools set up by SEDUC, why does its practice keep repeating myths and ideas which have already been considered old-fashioned or theoretically contested? People believe that the assessment evaluation encompasses more than a technical discussion. It demands a political discussion about the educational goals, since the evaluation is a powerful tool not only in the reorganization of the Brazilian Education, but also as a tool for the enhancement of the learner and the teacher, integrated in the teaching-learning process. A qualitative-quantitative research was developed, as a case-study having 13 subjects as participants (9 teachers of secondary schools and 2 supervisors from E.E.F.M. João Mattos, a technician from SEDUC and a technician from CREDE de Fortaleza) during the year of 2005. The aim was to collect their ideas about the outcome of these proposals among teachers. First, they answered some questionnaires followed by semi-structured interviews with all subjects. The results show that there is still a tendency of reducing the evaluation procedures and also the tendency of being resistant to the evaluation proposal of 2000 and the acceptance of the2004’s proposal. The results also show that changes related to the assessment evaluation field should be qualified not only in relation to the making of these transformations but also in relation to material conditions in order to avoid the failure of only focusing on the immediate, pragmatic and, out of context technical improvement. Thus, the way to overcome the resistance to the construction of new evaluative practices, which should be implemented in our everyday school system, should take into consideration not only the teachers as subjects of creation, seen as mere doers, building spaces for their improvement, but allowing the theoretical-practical dialogue to give a new meaning to the evaluation practice; but also guarantee adequate work atmosphere making teachers able to develop in a democratic and conscious way the actions which may shed light on the improvement of the teaching-learning process as a result of an evaluative and instructive process practice. / Este estudo apresentou como objetivo geral avaliar a repercussão na prática docente das propostas oficiais implementadas pela Secretaria da Educação Básica do Ceará (SEDUC) em 2000 e 2004 acerca da avaliação da aprendizagem no âmbito do Ensino Médio da rede pública estadual. De modo mais específico, intencionou-se identificar as concepções de avaliação da aprendizagem que norteiam a prática docente; verificar se os professores estão informados sobre os fundamentos teóricos que orientam as propostas avaliativas instaladas pela SEDUC; identificar a reação docente às propostas de avaliação da SEDUC de 2000 e 2004; e observar se os instrumentos e procedimentos de avaliação utilizados pelos professores correspondem àqueles sugeridos pelas propostas da SEDUC. Muitos estudos são realizados sobre avaliação, podendo-se até afirmar que a produção teórica acerca desse tema é rica, entretanto o que se questiona neste trabalho é a dissociação entre essa produção e a prática escolar. Se a produção teórica avançou, servindo de referencial inclusive para a elaboração de novas propostas avaliativas implementadas pela SEDUC na rede oficial de ensino, por que a prática continua reproduzindo mitos e valores já contestados e superados teoricamente? Acredita-se que a avaliação da aprendizagem implica mais do que um debate técnico, envolve um debate político sobre suas finalidades educacionais, pois a avaliação pode ser um instrumento poderoso na reconstrução da Educação brasileira, servindo como elemento de promoção do educando e do educador, integrado ao processo de ensino aprendizagem. Nesse sentido, foi realizada uma pesquisa de natureza quali-quantitativa, sob a forma de um estudo de caso, com 13 sujeitos (9 professores do Ensino Médio e 2 supervisoras da E.E.F.M. João Mattos, uma técnica da SEDUC e uma técnica do CREDE de Fortaleza, durante o ano de 2005. A intenção foi coletar desses sujeitos suas percepções sobre a repercussão dessas propostas na prática docente. Inicialmente foram aplicados os questionários, seguidos de entrevistas semi-estruturadas com todos os sujeitos. Os resultados indicam que ainda permeia, nas práticas docentes, o reducionismo com relação às funções da avaliação e que houve resistência por parte dos docentes ante a proposta avaliativa de 2000 e aceitação à proposta de 2004. Mostram, ainda, que as transformações pretendidas no campo da avaliação da aprendizagem devem ser qualificadas duplamente, tanto em termos de formação quanto em termos de condições materiais, sob pena de limitar-se a um aperfeiçoamento técnico de orientação imediatista, pragmática e descontextualizada. Assim, o caminho para superar a resistência na perspectiva da constituição de novas práticas avaliativas a serem efetivadas no cotidiano escolar precisa levar em consideração os professores como sujeitos de criação e não como meros executores, criando espaços de formação que possibilitem o diálogo teórico-prático para que a prática avaliativa seja ressignificada, bem como a garantia de condições adequadas de trabalho para que, de fato, possam evoluir de forma democrática e consciente na elaboração e concretização de ações que promovam a melhoria do ensino-aprendizagem, mediante a efetivação de um processo avaliativo formativo

It is available in Moodle of the Mathematics Department of UFSCar, was created in four topics, one for each learning situation provided in the student diary volume 3 of the third grade of High School of the Secretaria of Education of the State of São Paulo .Each topic consists of activities like lessons, quizzes, sending files and participation in specific forums. The lessons seek to lead the student to acquire the skills provided in the Student notebook. The questionnaires are used to strengthen and verify that learning. The purpose of sending files and participating in the forums is to provide a self-evaluation and development of students' writing skills The environment does not change the principles guiding the curriculum of the State of São Paulo, keeping the content and context of encouraging the development of personal skills, especially those related to reading and writing mathematics. It is expected that the application of the environment, the use of the viewers, the participation in the forums and execution of activities and exercises with the aid of technology, encourage, motivate and facilitate the teaching and learning of mathematics, leading each participant to resize their concepts and knowledge. The participation of undergraduated students in the activities of virtual learning environment seeks to provide grants to train a teacher who can act as mediator, facilitator and challenger of learning, ready to work with students to construct their knowledge through manipulation, exploitation, navigation and communication with the "objects" presented. / O presente trabalho relata a elaboração de um ambiente virtual de aprendizagem (AVA) para o ensino de Funções, com a utilização de visualizadores criados no GeoGebra, se constituindo em um dos produtos do Mestrado Profissional desenvolvido na Universidade Federal de São Carlos. Disponibilizado no Moodle do Departamento de Matemática da UFSCar, o AVA foi idealizado em 4 tópicos, um para cada situação de aprendizagem prevista no caderno do aluno volume 3 da 3a série do Ensino Médio, da Secretaria de Estado da Educação do Estado de São Paulo. Cada tópico é formado por atividades do tipo lições, questionários, envio de arquivos e a participação em fóruns específicos. As lições procuram levar o aluno a adquirir as habilidades previstas no Caderno do Aluno. Os questionários servem para reforço e verificação dessa aprendizagem. Já o envio de arquivos e a participação nos fóruns propiciam a auto-avaliação dos estudantes e o desenvolvimento das habilidades de escrita. O ambiente não altera os princípios norteadores do currículo do Estado de São Paulo, mantendo a contextualização dos conteúdos e favorecendo o desenvolvimento de competências pessoais, especialmente as relacionadas à leitura e a escrita matemática. Esperase que a aplicação do ambiente, a utilização dos visualizadores, a participação nos fóruns e a execução de atividades e exercícios com o auxílio da tecnologia incentive, motive e facilite o ensino e a aprendizagem da Matemática, levando cada participante a redimensionar seus conceitos e conhecimentos. A participação de alunos de Licenciatura nas atividades do AVA busca fornecer subsídios para formar um professor que possa atuar como mediador, facilitador e desafiador da aprendizagem, preparado para trabalhar com alunos que constroem o conhecimento por meio da manipulação, exploração, navegação e comunicação com os objetos apresentados.

The scarcity of theorical studies about this Office, alongside the importance of the contributions it made in countless cities, oriented the focus of this study on its performance in Natal, where it remained from 1935 to 1969, designing, executing and managing sanitationist works and the services associated with them and going through several political, economical, social, cultural and urbanistic contexts periodicized in this work into three moments. Thus, it is intended to analyze how the Saturnino de Brito Office behaved and adapted itself to the conjunctural changes that unfolded into each of these moments, and more specifically, to observe the forms of intervention adopted the principles, the instruments and the scope aiming to verify the transition of the sanitaristic set of urbanistic ideas into the urban planning as a development strategy on a local level / O Escrit?rio Saturnino de Brito, criado em 1920 sob a orienta??o sanitarista do engenheiro Saturnino de Brito, registra uma vasta atua??o por todo o territ?rio nacional, mesmo ap?s o falecimento do fundador, em 1929, momento em que assumiu a presid?ncia o tamb?m engenheiro Saturnino de Brito Filho, comprometido em continuar a obra do seu pai e em assegurar os seus princ?pios administrativos, t?cnicos e urban?sticos, at? o in?cio da d?cada de 1980, quando do fim daquela institui??o. A escassez de estudos te?ricos acerca desse Escrit?rio, aliada ao vulto das contribui??es que prestou em in?meras cidades, orientou o enfoque deste estudo para a sua atua??o em Natal, onde permaneceu entre 1935 e 1969, projetando, executando e administrando obras de saneamento e os servi?os a ela associados, perpassando por diversos contextos pol?ticos, econ?micos, sociais, culturais e urban?sticos periodizados, no trabalho, em tr?s momentos. Pretende-se, portanto, analisar como o Escrit?rio Saturnino de Brito se comportou e se adaptou ?s mudan?as conjunturais que se desenrolaram em cada um desses momentos, e, mais especificamente, observar as formas de interven??o adotadas os princ?pios, os instrumentos e a abrang?ncia , visando, assim, verificar a transi??o do ide?rio urban?stico sanitarista para o planejamento urbano como estrat?gia desenvolvimentista em ?mbito local

Nessa pesquisa apresentamos uma proposta didática pautada no uso da literatura no ensino de ciências a partir do uso de um gênero literário específico, o romance policial juvenil, no ensino da Investigação Científica. A obra utilizada como modelo é O caso da borboleta Atíria de Lúcia Machado de Almeida, que possui um enredo pautado em mistério e investigação policial e faz parte da Série Vaga Lume da editora Ática. As obras literárias que compõe a Série estão presentes nas salas de aula e bibliotecas escolares, desde a década de setenta e fazem parte do repertório de leitura de muitos alunos atualmente. Além disso, elas estão repletas de conteúdos que permeiam várias áreas do conhecimento. Um dos procedimentos utilizados de análise da obra foi o uso da semiótica de Greimas (1976) que procura estabelecer as relações sintáxicas no interior de um texto, podendo auxiliar em um trabalho de interpretação mais profunda. Também realizamos a análise do discurso tendo como aporte teórico Maingueneau (2006), que estabelece parâmetros que nos permitem avaliar as principais características e as condições de êxito para os gêneros do discurso, estudando o processo de produção da obra, tendo como base o contexto sociocultural, evidenciando elementos a serem considerados no processo de ensino-aprendizagem relacionados à estrutura da obra e ao contexto sociocultural em que ela está inserida. Com essas análises, notamos que a obra tem como foco a busca do conhecimento por meio da investigação, possibilitando a elaboração de propostas didáticas para o ensino da Investigação Científica. Sendo assim, elaboramos propostas didáticas com o uso da obra para a abordagem da investigação científica no ensino de ciências voltadas para nível do Ensino Fundamental II. Essas propostas foram aplicadas em uma escola da cidade de São Paulo com o objetivo de reformular e aprimorar as propostas, possibilitando seu uso em diversos contextos escolares de forma interdisciplinar. / In this research we propose a guided didactic use of literature in science education from the use of a specific literary genre, the crime novel, in Scientific Research\'s teaching. The book O caso da borboleta Atíria was used as a model, written by Lucia Machado de Almeida, in which story is based in mystery and police investigation and is part of the publisher Ática, in Vaga Lume collection. The Literary that make up this collection are present in classrooms and school libraries since the seventies and are part of the repertoire of many students currently reading. Moreover, they are filled with content that permeate many areas of knowledge. One of the procedures used for analysis of the work was the use of semiotics of Greimas (1976) who seeks to establish syntactic relations within a text, and may help in a deeper interpretation work. We also conducted the analysis of discourse based in Maingueneau\'s theory (2006), which sets parameters that allow us to assess the main characteristics and the conditions of success for speech genres, studying the production process of the work, based on the social and culture contexts, showing elements to be considered in the process of teaching and learning related to the structure of the work and to the context in which it is embedded. With those analyses, we note that the work has a focus on to the search for knowledge through research, allowing the preparation of didactic proposals for the Scientific Research teaching. Thus, we elaborate didactic proposals using the book to approach scientific research in science teaching aimed at the elementary school. These proposals have been implemented in a school in the city of São Paulo in order to reshape and refine the proposals, enabling its use in different school contexts in an interdisciplinary way.
