Trabalho e conflito na Noroeste do Brasil: a greve dos ferroviários de 1914 / Work and conflict in the northwest of Brazil: the strike of railroader of 1914

Diego Francisco de Carvalho 07 December 2009 (has links)
O propósito desta dissertação é examinar os trabalhadores envolvidos na construção, manutenção e operação da Estrada de Ferro Noroeste do Brasil, focalizando especialmente a greve dos ferroviários ocorrida no ano de 1914. Questões relacionadas à composição da mão-de-obra tanto da construção como da operação da ferrovia e às condições de trabalho existentes são temas a serem examinados. O período de análise compreende os anos entre 1904, ano de formação da Companhia Noroeste, e 1917, quando ocorre a encampação da E. F. Bauru-Itapura pela União. A ferrovia Noroeste do Brasil, como se convencionou chamá-la desde seu surgimento, que liga as cidades de Bauru (SP) e Corumbá (MS), começou a ser construída em 1905, atingindo Porto Esperança (MS) no ano de 1914, quando completou 1.272 quilômetros de extensão. Ao cortar regiões ainda não ocupadas pelo homem branco, a Noroeste do Brasil foi a primeira ferrovia do estado de São Paulo a abrir novos territórios, ao contrário de suas antecessoras, que surgiram para auxiliar a produção cafeeira já existente. As dificuldades no processo de construção da ferrovia foram muitas. A travessia de áreas insalubres, úmidas e empestadas de mosquitos, a transposição de rios, a presença indígena na região, a dificuldade no recrutamento de trabalhadores, a ganância dos empreiteiros, além do método repressor da Companhia Noroeste com os seus empregados, fizeram desse processo um empreendimento complexo em todos os aspectos e, ao mesmo tempo, desafiador aos limites do homem. Até 1917, a Noroeste do Brasil era, na verdade, formada por duas estradas independentes e interligadas: pela E. F. Bauru-Itapura, privada, de propriedade dos acionistas da Companhia Noroeste; e pela E. F. Itapura-Corumbá, de propriedade da União. Em dezembro de 1917, a E. F. Bauru-Itapura foi encampada pela União, sendo, no ano seguinte, incorporada à E. F. Itapura-Corumbá, de modo que as duas passaram a ser denominadas de Estrada de Ferro Noroeste do Brasil. Entre 1918 e 1956, a ferrovia esteve sob a administração do governo federal. Em 1957, a Noroeste foi integrada à Rede Ferroviária Federal (RFFSA). / The purpose of this dissertation is to examine the workers involved in construction, maintenance and operation of the Noroeste do Brasil Railroad, focusing especially on the rail strike occurred in the year of 1914. Issues relating to the composition of the workforce - both the construction and operation of the rail and existing working conditions are themes to be examined. The period of analysis covers the years among 1904, year the Companhia Noroeste was formed, and 1917, when the purchase of E. F. Bauru-Itapura occurs by the Union. The Noroeste do Brasil Railroad, as it is known from its appearance, which connects the cities of Bauru (SP) and Corumbá (MS), began to be built in 1905, at Porto Esperança (MS) in the year 1914, when completed 1272 km in length. By crossing regions still not occupied by white men, the Noroeste do Brasil was the first railroad of the state to \"open\" new territories, unlike its predecessors, which appeared to help the coffee production that already existed. The difficulties in the construction of many railroads. The crossing of unhealthy areas, wet and stank of mosquitoes, the crossing of rivers, the indigenous presence in the region, the difficulty in recruiting workers, the greed of contractors, besides the repressive method of Companhia Noroeste with its employees, have made this process a complex undertaking in all aspects and at the same time, challenging to the limits of man. Until 1917, the Noroeste do Brasil was in fact formed by two independent and interconnected roads: by E. F. Bauru-Itapura, private, ownership of the shareholders of the Companhia Noroeste, and by E. F. Itapura-Corumbá, ownership of the Union. On December 1917, to E. F. Bauru-Itapura was purchased by the Union, and the following year, to the E. F. Itapura-Corumbá, so the two came to be called the Noroeste do Brasil Railroad. Between 1918 and 1956, the railroad was under the administration of the federal government. In 1957, the Noroeste was integrated to Federal Railway Network (RFFSA).

No. of bitstreams: 1 renatobrazalbertinosouza.pdf: 1758176 bytes, checksum: bc18bf464a0293c532187d08d77ed586 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2018-10-10 / Esta dissertação foi desenvolvida no Programa de Mestrado Profissional em Administração Pública da Faculdade de Administração e Ciências Contábeis da Universidade Federal de Juiz de Fora e buscou compreender como a representação social de greve dos funcionários da UFJF tem impactado o movimento grevista. As greves no setor público são fenômenos polêmicos, podendo ser consideradas como causadoras de transtornos à sociedade ou como um direito inalienável. É possível verificar na instituição a vivência de greves quase todos os anos, tendo algumas uma longa duração. A pesquisa procurou compreender os conceitos e as percepções relacionadas aos movimentos grevistas. Para tanto, apoiou-se na Teoria das Representações Sociais, que se revela promissora para a obtenção de um entendimento mais profundo dos fenômenos sociais. Identificou-se a representação das greves sob a perspectiva dos Técnico-administrativos em Educação, que constituem o pessoal não docente da universidade. Foi utilizada a técnica de evocação de palavras para a coleta de dados. A pesquisa revelou que a representação social das greves comporta, significativamente, a ideia de conotação positiva luta por direitos, demonstrando que os servidores as compreendem como movimentos reivindicatórios. Contudo, ao mesmo tempo, envolvem relevantes conotações negativas, como a transformação em uma simples oportunidade de folga por parte dos servidores, além dos prejuízos naturalmente causados à comunidade acadêmica devido à descontinuidade dos serviços prestados em função da paralisação das atividades laborativas. Os principais problemas identificados referem-se à carência de diálogo e interação entre os servidores e à falta de informações adequadas dos mesmos acerca das questões que envolvem as greves. Como possível estratégia de ação, sugere-se, especialmente, a promoção do diálogo e interação entre os funcionários, por meio da criação de ambientes de discussão das questões concernentes às relações de trabalho de maneira institucionalizada pela administração da UFJF. Também se recomenda o fornecimento de informações adequadas aos servidores e ainda a adoção de ações de formação pessoal e profissional, relacionadas à conscientização, treinamento e desenvolvimento dos mesmos. Tais ações podem ser implementadas tanto pela administração da universidade como pelo sindicato representativo da categoria. / This dissertation was developed in the Professional Master's Program in Public Administration of the Faculty of Administration and Accounting Sciences of the Federal University of Juiz de Fora and sought to understand how the social representation of UFJF employees' strike has impacted the strike movement. Strikes in the public sector are controversial phenomena, and can be considered as causing disruption to society or as an inalienable right. It is possible to verify in the institution the existence of strikes almost every year, some of which have a long duration. The research sought to understand the concepts and perceptions related to the strike movements. To that end, it relied on the Theory of Social Representations, which proves to be promising for a deeper understanding of social phenomena. It was identified the representation of the strikes from the perspective of the Technical-administrative in Education, who constitute the non-teaching personnel of the university. The word evocation technique was used to collect data. The research revealed that the social representation of strikes comprise, significantly, the idea of positive connotation fighting for rights, demonstrating that the servants understand them as protest movements. However, at the same time, they involve relevant negative connotations, such as the transformation into a simple opportunity to take time off on the part of the servers, in addition to the damages naturally caused to the academic community due to the discontinuity of the services provided due to the work stoppage. The main problems identified relate to the lack of dialogue and interaction among the servers and the lack of adequate information on the issues surrounding the strikes. As a possible strategy for action, it is suggested, especially, the promotion of dialogue and interaction among employees, through the creation of environments for discussion of issues concerning labor relations in an institutionalized manner by the UFJF administration. It is also recommended to provide adequate information to the servers and also the adoption of personal and professional training actions, related to the awareness, training and development. Such actions may be implemented by both the university administration and the union representative of the category.

Mediální zobrazení Velké mostecké stávky / Media Representation of The great Most strike

Ullíková, Veronika January 2017 (has links)
This master's thesis deals with the Great Strike in the city of Most and its depiction in two state and one regional periodicals, namely Rudé právo, Lidové noviny and Brüxer Zeitung. The Great Strike was a significant display of miners' discontent, which went beyond the region's borders and influenced everyday life in the whole country. The extent and consequences of this protest action were unique at that time. My objective was to find out what depiction there is in the then periodicals. The thesis contains a brief historical insight into economic crisis and media situation in Czechoslovakia at the end of the 20th century. In the fist section, there are described economic aspects which induced problems not only in mining but in the whole economy. The activities of trade unions in the First Czechoslovak republic are also included. The second section describes in detail the development of the Great Strike, including events preceeding it. The third section is dedicated to the region of Most and its particularities in the industrial and social fields. The fourth section is focused on methodology and establishment of research questions. The practical part analyses individual articles. The analysis comprises the events of the Great Strike from the perspective of each and every periodical. Attention is...

Application of an elasto-plastic continuum model to problems in geophysics

Crooks, Matthew Stuart January 2014 (has links)
A model for stress and strain accumulation in strike slip earthquake faults is presented in which a finite width cuboidal fault region is embedded between two cuboidal tectonic plates. Elasto-plastic continuum constitutive equations model the gouge in the fault and the tectonic plates are linear elastic solids obeying the generalised Hooke's law. The model predicts a velocity field which is comparable to surface deformations. The plastic behaviour of the fault material allows the velocities in the tectonic plate to increase to values which are independent of the distance from the fault. Both of the non-trivial stress and strain components accumulate most significantly in the vicinity of the fault. The release of these strains during a dynamic earthquake event would produce the most severe deformations at the fault which is consistent with observations and the notion of an epicenter. The accumulations in the model, however, are at depths larger than would be expected. Plastic strains build up most significantly at the base of the fault which is in yield for the longest length of time but additionally is subject to larger temperatures which makes the material more ductile. The speed of propagation of the elasto-plastic boundary is calculated and its acceleration towards the surface of the fault may be indicative of a dynamic earthquake type event.

Étude comparative des libertés collectives des travailleurs : essai de rapprochement à partir de la situation juridique des travailleurs français et béninois / Comparative study of collective freedoms of workers : testing approximation from the legal situation of French and Beninesse workers

Bello, Ahmed 14 December 2010 (has links)
Assurer un équilibre, entre les différentes parties du contrat du travail, a toujours été l'un des buts de la création de la branche du droit du travail. La mise en place des règles du droit du travail réside, certes, dans une finalité particulière ; elle est constituée par la volonté d'émanciper le travailleur même, dans l'espace de l'entreprise. C'est assurément dans le même dessein que, pour permettre aux libertés individuelles de ne pas rester à la lisière de l'entreprise, des droits d'expression collective ont été attribués aux travailleurs : la liberté syndicale, le droit de grève et le principe de participation. Il convient d'étudier la fondamentalité de ces droits, dans un champ qui doit nécessairement s'affranchir de tout ordre juridique national, en regard du caractère universel dont ils disposent. Mais encore faut-il partir de deux ordres internes pour mener une réflexion non superficielle. Comment ne pas dès lors partir du « pays des droits de l'homme » et du « quartier latin de l'Afrique », pour voir dans quelle mesure les droits fondamentaux de l'homme au travail sont partout respectés. La problématique de « mimétisme juridique » génère t-elle des difficultés sur le plan des garanties des libertés collectives des travailleurs en Afrique et, plus précisément, au Bénin ? Qu'en est-il de la réalité des droits fondamentaux de l'homme au travail dans l'ex Dahomey ? Telles sont les formes de questions auxquelles cette étude comparative des libertés collectives des travailleurs se propose d'apporter une esquisse de réponse. / To ensure a balance, between the different parts of the work contract, has always been the aim of the employment law creation. The implementation of the rules of employment law certainly has got a particular purpose. It is constituted by the wish to get the worker emancipated in the business space. It is certainly in the same purpose that, in order to enable individual liberties not to remain in the edge of the enterprise, those collective expressions rights were given to workers: the liberty of trade unions, the right to strike and the principle of participation. We will have to study the fundamental nature of those rights in a way which would be totally free of any national legal system, in regard of the universal character there have. However, we still have to start from two internal orders to reach a non-superficial reflexion. Then, why shall we not focus on the “human right country” and the “Latin district of Africa” to understand in which extent fundamental human rights regarding employment are respected everywhere. Does the “mimicry legal” issue generate difficulties in Africa workers' collective liberties and freedom field and more specifically in Benin? What about fundamental human rights regarding employment in ex Dahomey? That comparative study on worker's collective liberties will make an attempt to answer.

”Om femtio år är det nog kört” : En kvalitativ studie om svenska mellanstadieelevers uppfattningar om klimatförändringarna / ”In fifty years, it's probably too late” : A qualitative study on Swedish middle school students' perceptions of climate change

Johansson, Andreas January 2020 (has links)
Många forskare menar att klimatförändringarna är vår tids största ödesfråga. För att möta de stundande klimatproblemen läggs ett stort ansvar på skolan och den undervisningen eleverna får ta del av. Klimatundervisningen ska dels leda till att eleverna lär sig om miljöfrågor, hur klimatförändringar uppstår, både de naturligt förekommande såväl som de vi människor påverkar, dels inge tilltro till sin egen förmåga att kunna leva hållbart och ta välgrundade beslut som rör klimatet. För att lärarna ska kunna utforma en undervisning som möter elevers uppfattningar behövs det kunskap om vilka uppfattningar svenska grundskolelever kan ha. Den här studien syftar till att svara på vilka uppfattningar svenska elever har om orsaker till-, konsekvenser av- och åtgärder för att bromsa klimatförändringarna, samt vilka informationskällor de har. Metoden som har använts för datainsamling är semistrukturerade fokusgruppsintervjuer med 15 svenska elever i årskurs 6. Materialet har sedan analyserats genom tematisk analys. Resultatet visar att även om eleverna har fått samma undervisning i ämnet, av samma lärare, skiljde sig deras uppfattningar om klimatförändringarna. Resultatet visar också att eleverna sätter sina egenintressen före klimatet även om de anser att handlingarna skulle vara effektiva åtgärder att bromsa klimatförändringarna. Många elever ställde sig också skeptiska till skolstrejk för klimatet, både att själva delta och nyttan med att andra skolstrejkar. / Many climate scientists believe that the climate change is the most critical issue of our time. In order to meet the future climate problems, a great responsibility is placed on school and the education the students receive. Climate education should partly lead to students learning about environmental issues, how climate change occurs, both the natural ones as well as the ones humans are responsible for, and to give confidence in their own ability to live sustainably and make well-grounded decisions regarding the climate. In order for teachers to make lessons that meet the students’ perceptions about the climate, we need to know what perceptions Swedish primary school students may have. The purpose of this study is to answer what perceptions the Swedish students have of the causes, consequences and actions to decrease the climate change, as well as to find out what sources of information they have. The method used for data collection is semi-structured focus group interviews with 15 Swedish students from 6th grade. The material has been analyzed using thematic analysis. The result from this study shows that despite the fact that the students have offered the same education, by the same teacher, their views on climate change differed. The results also show that students put their own interests ahead of the climate, even though they believe that some actions would be effective in terms of decreasing the climate change. Many students were also skeptical toward school strikes for the climate, both when it comes to participation and the efficiency themselves and the efficiency when other participate in school strikes.

Ljuddesignen i tävlingsinriktade spel och dess påverkan på prestation : Hur påverkar förändrad ljuddesign spelarprestation i CS:GO? / The sound design in competitive games and its influence on performance : How does altered sound design influence player performance in CS:GO?

Lind, Philip January 2021 (has links)
6 personer deltog i en undersökning där ljuddesignen i Counter Strike: Global Offensive (2012) modifierades för att undersöka om deltagarnas prestation förändrades på grund av detta. En fördjupning i informativ ljuddesign i digitala spel utförs i rapporten med syfte att ge modifieringen stöd, då de ljud som förändrades var de mest informativa ljuden i spelet. Undersökningens frågeställning är ”Hur påverkar förändrad ljuddesign spelarprestation i CS:GO?”. Deltagarna spelade 5 rundor mot datorstyrda bottar i en icke modifierad samt en modifierad version av spelet. Därefter svarade de på en enkät där svaren sedan diskuterades i individuella intervjuer. Resultatet av studien visade på att den förändrade ljuddesignen påverkade deltagarnas prestation men att det var den initiala reaktionen till det nya ljuden som hindrade dem från att prestera som vanligt. Testets utformning behöver likna en normaliserad spelsession av Counter Strike: Global Offensive (2012) för att korrekt mäta huruvida spelarprestationen påverkas av ljuddesignen. / <p>Det finns övrigt digitalt material (t.ex. film-, bild- eller ljudfiler) eller modeller/artefakter tillhörande examensarbetet som ska skickas till arkivet. </p>
