A pesquisa sobre a função do rádio na preservação de uma língua teve por objetivo descobrir os motivos pelos quais milhares de pessoas sintonizam programas radiofônicos transmitidos em talian na Região da Serra Gaúcha. Para isso, levantaram-se dados relativos ao Programa Cancioníssima da Rádio São Francisco SAT de Caxias do Sul. Transmitido em talian, ele permanece na grade de programação da emissora desde 1984. Analisou-se, através de um questionário aplicado a 28 ouvintes, os principais pontos de audiência e aceitação do programa radiofônico que apresenta histórias, contos e músicas em talian. Buscou-se, ainda, a contextualização do talian em dois momentos: o primeiro, o das origens do talian e, o segundo, o dos atos de revitalização da língua registrados a partir das comemorações do Centenário da Imigração Italiana no Rio Grande do Sul. Verificou-se que o rádio tem importante contribuição diretamente ligada à preservação do talian na região da serra, principalmente como suporte de políticas de salvaguarda dessa língua, além de auxiliar como instrumento de resgate das tradições e costumes deixados pelos primeiros imigrantes que chegaram à região da serra gaúcha no final do século XIX. / Submitted by Marcelo Teixeira (mvteixeira@ucs.br) on 2014-06-02T19:20:55Z No. of bitstreams: 1 Dissertacao Tales Giovani Armiliato.pdf: 5378007 bytes, checksum: 0813ac31453cf43dee698ecaed267f25 (MD5) / Made available in DSpace on 2014-06-02T19:20:55Z (GMT).

Data related to the radio programme called Cancioníssima San Francisco SAT from the city of Caxias do Sul was collected. This programme has been transmitted in talian since 1984 and discloses stories, tales and songs in this dialect. An oral interview was applied to 28 listeners in order to analyze the main points of audience and its acceptance. The project shows two different contextualizations which are: the origins of talian dialect and the acts of language revitalization registered after the celebration of the Centenary of the Italian Immigration in Rio Grande do Sul. The radio has an important contribution directly linked to the preservation of talian in the Region of Serra Gaúcha, mainly as a support to safeguard policies and as an instrument of redemption of the traditions and customs left by the first immigrants who came to the Region of Serra Gaúcha in the late 19th century.

Este trabalho se propôs a analisar limites e possibilidades da participação social na saúde por espaços não institucionalizados, a partir de alguns dos limites decorrentes da institucionalidade posta e do conjunto de práticas sociais, técnicas e sistêmicas na saúde. A discussão enfoca a rádio comunitária como espaço de emergência de conflitos e questões que perpassam dada realidade e suas relações sociais, de forma a poder contribuir com a participação social na saúde. Nesse sentido, optou-se pela realização de um estudo de caso em Heliópolis, São Paulo, SP, por um olhar para o território na sua diversidade de espaços e vivências, e também para os conflitos que lhe são próprios e relacionados às relações sociais daquele espaço constitutivas. A partir das práticas significantes relacionadas à produção simbólica e material de Heliópolis, do entrejogo entre práticas sociais e trajetórias individuais, e entre aquelas e contexto global, foi possível uma formulação teórica em relação ao objetivo da pesquisa. A organização da população de Heliópolis se deu em resistência à dominação exercida por grupos político-econômicos e à repressão do Estado, pela construção de laços sociais de solidariedade em processos de subjetivação de indivíduos, que resultou na constituição de uma comissão de moradores. Com a transformação progressiva da relação do Estado com aquele corpo social, a comissão torna-se associação e deixa de fazer enfrentamento direto por manifestações e ocupações, passando a atuar na forma projeto financiável pelo Estado ou pela iniciativa privada. Hoje, parte das necessidades sociais, as financiáveis, é tomada pelo todo, e as determinações econômicas e sociais decorrentes da divisão de classes impedem que ganhe centralidade, nas ações sociais, a luta de classes. No entanto, a Rádio Comunitária possui historicidade e legitimidade distintas das dos projetos financiáveis, e disto decorrem distintas formas de ação social. O espaço é de lazer e trabalho, de produção e divulgação culturais, e também de constituição de sujeitos políticos, pois nele se dá a formação de uma cadeia coletiva de ações em resistência a determinações políticas, econômicas e sociais. Da especificidade da relação entre forma e conteúdo na produção e expressão culturais decorre a emergência diferenciada de necessidades sociais, de modo que a rádio possibilita a expressão, articulação e mobilização de sujeitos em ação política diferenciada daquela que ocorre em espaços institucionalizados. A atuação pela rádio comunitária também possibilita a construção histórica de necessidades sociais em sua relação com a saúde, e tem função organizativa de demandas que permitem guiar a satisfação dessas necessidades pela reivindicação frente ao poder público e ao sistema de saúde. Na atuação deste com a rádio, gera-se demandas a que existem respostas sistêmicas previamente definidas. No entanto, a rádio é espaço que auxilia na construção de processos instituintes, o que em Heliópolis se expressa pelo combate à política de privatização da saúde São Paulo e às Organizações Sociais (OS), além da articulação de sujeitos em ações como a organização da coleta de lixo / This study aimed to analyze the limits and possibilities of social participation in health by non-institutionalized spheres, from some of the limits imposed by the institutions and the set of social practices, techniques and systemic health. This discussion focuses on Community Radio as a sphere of emergency of conflicts and issues that permeate the reality and its social relations, in order to contribute to social participation in health. Accordingly, we chose to carry out a case study in Heliópolis, São Paulo, SP, by a view on the area in its diversity of spheres and experiences, and also on the conflicts which are related to the social relations of that sphere constitutive. From the signifying practices related to material and symbolic production of Heliopolis, by working between social practices and individual trajectories, and between those and the global context, it made possible a theoretical formulation for the purpose of research. The popular organization in Heliopolis was built in resistance to the political-economic domination and the one exercised by the State, constructed from social bonds of solidarity in processes of constitution of political subjects, which resulted in the formation of a residents committee. With the gradual transformation of the relationship between the State and that social body, the committee became an association, making no more direct engagement by occupations and demonstrations nowadays. It starts acting by projects fundable by the state or by private enterprise. Today part of the social needs, the fundable ones, are taken by all, and the economic and social determinations that are consequences of the classes division prevent to gain centrality in the social actions the class-conflict. The Community Radio, however, has legitimacy and historicity distinct from those of fundable projects, and from this results different forms of social action. The sphere is for work and leisure, for cultural production and dissemination and also for constitution of political subjects, because on it takes the formation of collective actions in resistance to political, economic and social determinations. From the specificity of the relationship between form and content on the cultural production and expression follows the differentiated emergence of social needs, so that the radio enables the expression, articulation and mobilization of subjects in different political actions from the one that occurs in institutionalized spheres. The action by a Community Radio also makes possible the historical building of social needs in their relationship to health. The Community Radio has an organizational function of the demands that allows subjects to conduct the satisfaction of social needs by claiming against the government and the health system. The System action in the radio is characterized by the generation of demands in which answers are previously defined by the System. However, a Community Radio is a sphere that assists the construction of instituting processes, which are in Heliópolis expressed by the struggle against privatization of health in São Paulo and the organized system, providing political articulation of subjects, such as the organization of garbage collect

The dissertation thesis called "Polish catholic Radio Maryja" deals with phenomenon of the polish radio Maryja. This radio has specific position between the others catholic media. In some cases it is impossible to compare it with any other polish radio stations. For more than 18 years radio Maryja is ruled by charismatic priest - father Tadeusz Rydzyk and it has indispensable impact on the socio-political events in Poland. Around the radio grew hardly controlled, isolated society - conglomerate of various media, institutions, foundations, movements and educational establishments. Members of the conglomerate (up to six millions) have created unique group involvement which is connected not only by common thinking about religious tasks, but also by idea about common causes. The dissertation thesis called "Catholic Radio Maryja" describes history of the radio and the conglomerate and analyze the content of transmission "Unfinished conversations" by using the qualitative content analysis. It tries to collect - from the radio point of view - positive and negative values which represent "the good" and "the evil" in actual social tasks.

The aim of master’s thesis is a classification of digital modulation type. The interest in modulation classification has been growing for last years. It has several possible roles in both civilian and military applications such as spectrum sensing, signal confirmation, interference identification, monitoring and so on. Modulation classification is an intermediate step between signal detection and successful demodulation. Therefore the known methods are based on different statistics obtained from received signals. These statistics can be derived from continuous time signals and they hold for sampled signals.

This thesis deals with the transformation of the Radio Blaník newscast. The aim was to analyse and evaluate the real newscasts broadcast by the radio station. I addressed the topic in a theoretical and historical context. Nevertheless, the analytical part is crucial in my thesis. I have examined newscasts of all three models used by Radio Blaník during its existence. At the same time, I was interested in the process of news production and the reasons why such a fundamental and unique change like a new newscast format has taken place repeatedly. I not only paid attention to technical changes, but I also took account of the radio target group and the image that the radio station attempts to present in mass media. I was interested whether or not Radio Blaník has gradually given up its positive and regional nature. In both the theoretical and analytical part, I collected information mainly from interviews with radio station managers, radio station archive, and my own experience that I have gained during my work for Radio Blaník.

This thesis focuses on the historical development of radio reportage. The topic includes both political and technological aspects which radio reportage underwent within the Czech environment. All historical periods are described using concrete radio reportages which were broadcast during given terms. The reader can imagine how the radio reporters dealt with first the Germans and then the Soviets. It was the Czech Radio and its reporters who helped Czech people to overcome certain periods in our history. And so in this thesis we can find reportages broadcast during the second world war, right after the end of this war and during the highlights of the communist era - 1968 and 1989. This publication considers the original sources which are kept in the archive of the Czech Radio which is called Archivní a programové fondy Českého rozhlasu. However, this thesis also includes some contributions of contemporary journalists who are interested in history. It should help readers to improve the knowledge of this topics and to organize the development of radio reportage.

Since the US-led invasion began in October 2001, the United States has spent $440 billion on military operations in Afghanistan. Afghanistan still suffers from widespread corruption, ineffective government agencies, daily attacks taking place by both US-led forces and the Taliban - not to mention that 4 million refugees remain dislocated around the countryThe United States declared political objectives in the country are to -disrupt, disable, dismantle al- Qaeda in Afghanistan, to prevent it from using Afghanistan and Pakistan as a base to attack the United States. The U.S. and its military officials feel the best way to achieve this is by building a functioning Afghan Government that can secure its populations, protect its borders, keep Al-Qaeda out of Afghanistan and create a democratic social culture. For them to achieve this it is going to take a generational effort and billions of dollars. With the war entering its tenth year with no clear-cut victory in sight, the US-led forces will either have to leave Afghanistan due to enormous cost and domestic political pressure, or refocus its allocation of resources and redefine its objectives. The best way the U.S. will be able to leave Afghanistan but still help sustain and create a working stable and effective democratic government is through the...

This paper aims to follow the development of radio broadcasting piracy. We focused on two main and very different media landscapes - the United Kingdom and the United States of America. In the beginning, the concept of piracy differed locally. The United Kingdom's pirates were people who received radio broadcasting of the British Broadcasting Company without paying an annual license for listening. In the media landscape of America, piracy was connected with the broadcasting of their own signal. US pirates were broadcasters who caused an interference with any other licensed station. This concept of piracy developed in British media landscape too. Later, it was primarily associated with offshore broadcasters who anchored their floating studios in international waters. This kind of radio piracy was the most popular in the United Kingdom because of a radio broadcasting monopoly of the BBC. Piracy in the United States of America is associated with efforts of amateur radio experimenters. When their signals strengthened, all their activities became illegal. In both cases, piracy was a strong stimulus for a change. In the United Kingdom, the BBC formed new channels with diverse content and in the United Stated of America the position of micro- broadcasters has been strengthened.
