This thesis examines the processes the American and Norwegian press go through when identifying (or not) private citizens who are suspected of or arrested for a crime. Four central principles are explored in detail and elaborated upon as they relate to the press and individuals in the criminal justice system: the public's right to know, the right to privacy, protection of reputation, and presumption of innocence. Three Norwegian newspaper editors and an independent consultant to the Norwegian Institute of Journalism elaborated on how identification of criminal suspects is determined in Norway. The Norwegian case study provides an alternative approach to identification. Both legal and ethics solutions are proposed as a way to help protect the privacy, reputation, and presumption of innocence of private individuals suspected of or arrested for a crime but without unconstitutionally intruding on press freedom.

The United Nations currently adopts media policies for peacekeeping missions on an ad-hoc basis, often relying on US or NATO rules. Some have suggested that a standardized media policy for all peacekeeping missions should be the norm. This project examines that proposition with an eye to the tension between the right to know and operational security. Looking at UN intervention in the Gulf War, Somalia, and Rwanda, the problems with such a rigid media policy appear significant. Instead, a dual-level approach is advocated, allowing broad principles of independent coverage as well as in-country negotiations to take place. / Master of Arts

The Child's Right to Know Their Origin v. Babybox The goal of my Master Thesis is to evaluate the possibility of applying the child's right to know their origin, to find out the relationship between the right and Babybox and objectively compile and assess the existence of Babybox itself. My attention has been focused on other institutes, too, where the right to know one's origin is feasible to achieve as well as on institutes where this right is still being heavily discussed. I concentrated on one part of family law that has to react to the scientific and medical progress and changes in society. The topics I focused on are not unambiguous and it is necessary to deal with them sensitively as it is an issue important for the whole of society. It is clear that every human being wants to know their past and roots for many various reasons. This Thesis is divided into five chapters. The first chapter is dedicated to legal regulations in family law, both international and domestic. The most important international norms and contracts managing children's rights and related questions are included. I found the Convention on the Rights of the Child, where the right to know one's origin is also included, as the most significant norm. Many institutes are in conflict with this Convention. Czech legal framework...

A pesquisa foi realizada em quatro municípios, que implantaram o programa até 2004, do qual o resultado apresenta-se a médio/longo prazo. Os pressupostos que circunscreveram a pesquisa são: a) vivemos tempos de pautas sociais que têm potencializado posições individuais e fragilizado a escola, como espaço de experiências significativas de aprendizagem; b) os “jogos cooperativos” expressam uma experiência em “pedagogia da cooperação”; c) os docentes significam suas práticas, a partir da própria experiência; d) motivações e desafios advindos de espaços localizados fora dos muros do sistema oficial de ensino podem modificar saberes e práticas docentes sempre que os incluam em todo o processo. Os marcos teóricos que sustentam a concepção de Jog / The study in objective question to investigate the impact that the Cooperative Games, in the actions of the Program the Union the Life, comes producing in knowing them and the practical professors of the professors of the public education of the Region of the High Medium Uruguai/RS, in the perspective of this collective professor.

Estimated that they had circumscribed the research is: a) we live times of social guidelines that have potencializado position individual and fragilizado the school, as space of significant experiences of learning; b) the “cooperative games” express an experience in “pedagogia of the cooperation”; c) the practical professors mean its, from the proper experience; d) motivations and happened challenges of spaces located outside of the walls of the official system of education can modify to know and practical professors whenever they al

Three students were picked to be the focus students for this ethnography. The criteria used to pick the three focus students are: focus student one has to be an English language learner, focus student two student has to have an IEP or a 504 plan, and focus student three has to have had a significant life experience. Included in the ethnography are student works, analysis of assessments, and interviews with students and families. I used scholarly resources to support data, such as How to be an Effective Teacher by Harry K. Wong (2009). I discuss the effectiveness of my action plan by discussing the results of the students progression, or the need to amend the action plan. The purpose of ethnography is to get to know the student as a whole, and not through assessments. I describe students’ interests, likes and dislikes, and family life. In addition to getting to know the students, there is an in depth look at the educator, and her motivations.

Given the nature of modem warfare and the impact that technology has in contemporary war reporting, the primary objective of this thesis is to identify the most likely means by which the international media will cover future military operations. Initial research concentrates on the cultural and systemic ethos of the military and media professions and examines whether any differences have an adverse impact on how they operate during periods of armed conflict. A brief review of the history of war reporting is undertaken for several purposes; firstly, to discover if any differences between the professions have had a historical basis and, secondly, to ascertain whether there is any historical evidence of the media compromising military operations when covering operations during armed conflict. It was found that one of the principle reasons why the military and the meha have been traditional adversaries is that the military sees secrecy as vital for the successful conduct of its operations. The media, on the other hand, seeks complete disclosure. In what is considered to be the first of its type undertaken in Australia, a comprehensive survey was conducted to identify how each profession viewed the other. Research concentrated on the US and Australian models, examining how modern technology has made it more difficult for the dtary to control the media than in past conflicts. Research further identified that in the context of modern armed conflict, the military and the media have predominantly different and frequently competing interests. It was also found that the protection and advancement of their interests are affected by technological changes which are redefining the nature of modern warfare, and the means and capacity of the media to report it. The way the media gathers news during conflict was shown to have changed dramatically over the past ten years, particularly with its use of technology in transmitting news live from a battlefield back to a parent media organisation. The military was further seen as dramatically changing the manner in which it conducts warfare, including the introduction of initiatives aimed at neutralising the media's impact on operational security. Somewhat alarmingly, these initiatives not only minimise possible compromises of security but overall media criticism as well. Research also found that the tensions currently existing between the military and media can be resolved by both parties agreeing to a more effective way of reconciling their differences. However, it was found that any well meaning initiatives by the military and the media to work closer together during periods of conflict will be difficult to achieve if the ever-present political manipulation of news is not addressed. The thesis concludes by recommending changes to current military and media doctrine in order that future conflicts may be covered in a manner that fulfils the 'public's right to know,' while at the same time, allows the military to conduct operations without fear that security may be compromised by the subsequent media coverage.

The two principles of ¡§secret investigation¡¨ and ¡§freedom of the press¡¨ are respectively the foundations of ¡§presumption of innocence,¡¨ a basic human right, and ¡§the right to know,¡¨ one of the basic citizen rights. The former principle guards against any sentence of suspects unreivewed by the juridical system and protects the reputation, privacy and other legal rights of all the related parties in the case. The latter are the fourth power apart from the executive, legislative and judicial branches. It allows for strict monitoring of the governmental performance and, therefore, prevents the government from abusing its powers. In practice, these two principles are rather complicatedly connected. This study begins by exploring the definition of investigation and, discussing the role and function of the police in the investigation process, and then introducing the basic ideas of the secret investigation principle. As for the freedom of the press, the study starts by explaining its meaning and introduces related theories, legal definition, protection and limitation. The study then continues with a discussion of press autonomy and information source of the press. At the end, the study provides analysis of the interviews to find out conflict and/or cooperation between the police and the media. The question raised in this study is ¡§How do the police respond to the requirements of the press freedom and protect the right to know without violating any legal regulation?¡¨ The methodology of this study is literature review of official documents and in-depth interview. The data collected from the literature review were compiled and rewritten into sixteen situation analysis tools, which were then reorganized into ten simulation cases. The cases were used as issue analysis tools in the in-depth interviews with the selected journalists and investigation squad chiefs. In the interview, the squad chiefs were asked what considerations or reactions they would have in each simulation case. The journalists were also asked what strategies or perspectives they would adopt in reporting each case. Comparisons were made to find out the differences and similarities between the squad chiefs and journalists in considering the same case so as to achieve maximum agreement between both sides under the premise of not breach any of the existing legal requirements. The study reached the following four conclusions: (1) the police should be educated about which action would violate the principle of secret investigation and what legal or administrative liability would ensue; (2) the police should understand the needs of the media and provide journalists with information within reasonable scope for media coverage; (3) the police should use assistance of devices and skills of related technologies; (4) finally, the government should cooperate with the media to make laws that can effectively regulate related issues.

Essa análise teve como fundamento um olhar multirreferencial sobre a temática em questão tendo em vista que esse estudo, de natureza qualitativa, considerou, no seu referencial metodológico, a dimensão dialética da educação e os aspectos fenomenológicos no seu procedimento estratégico. Verificou-se com essa pesquisa que esses saberes encontram-se no cenário do cotidiano pedagógico, desarticulados e fragmentados e que a formação de professores tem se constituído como tenra linha condutora na articulação de seus saberes com a experiência da prática pedagógica dos professores da educação infantil. Essa articulação implica no estabelecimento consciente e intencional da inter-relação de saberes que dão suporte à formação com saberes vivenciados na realidade escolar, pois assim se estará contribuindo na construção do perfil do docente da educação infantil. Verificou-se que para a-con-tecer essa articulação faz-se necessário uma experiência solidária que supere a mera justaposição de disciplinas que constituem as propostas curriculares dos cursos de formação do professor. Abaliza-se como possibilidade o currículo inspirado na complexidade e na multireferencialidade, no respeite a diversidade e na instrumentalização docente para enfrentar as incertezas e trabalhar a criatividade de maneira dinâmica e revolucionária, portanto não poupando ousadia no ato transgressor do seu ser-sendo, na medida em que se revela como ação intencional, consciente, enquanto, práxis pedagógica construtora da autonomia. / Salvador

The theoretical framework and the working methods are guided in tools identified in Foucault's arquegenealogia and that, in our view, allow us to reflect on the knowledge that attend on the basis of discursive mechanisms that aim and subjectify the subject/professional teacher. Concepts such as file, memory, discontinuity, enunciative regularity, knowledge, power, objectivity, subjectivity, pastoral power and toughness are essential in the treatment we give this research, the speeches that promote some kind of categorization for the teacher. Although aware that the possibilities are numerous to classify the teacher chose to systematize the data of our file into two broad categories: its ethical political conduct and its professionalism, in order to observe the interweaving of knowledge and practices that support the understanding what should it be a requirement preciput of their work activities and in different circumstances, their way of being. The problematics of these statements makes it possible to understand that, often, there is almost universal agreement that the teacher is undervalued and therefore it is necessary to leave in his defense. This results in the tendency to put as the main element in the evaluative scale the importance of the subject / professional teacher to 1. instruct young people to live in harmonious society to do everything without neglecting own principles to traditional values. 2. contribute to the development of the country through its ability to form qualified people to the labor market and thus cooperate with the growth of the nation. Both objectification possibilities teacher were observed both in the statements delivered by ordinary citizens and professionals from other areas as set out in materialized by teachers themselves. However, from the data analyzed it was also possible to establish the existence of a space of resistance which is designed here as an indication that there is a way out to the point of being denied certain forms of objectification. By subjectively, not infrequently, the teacher denies the place that takes as the good shepherd, as the example to be followed and, therefore, makes statements and adopts different postures that are beyond the expectations that exist around it, and may, even culminate in what we believe to be the peak of its ability to "jump the window", namely, the abandonment of the profession. / Esta tese, cujo título é A profissionalização e a conduta ético-política do professor no Brasil: as relações saber/poder, nos processos discursivos de objetivação/subjetivação e as possibilidades de resistência se propõe a descrever a rede de enunciados a que estão submetidos os discursos sobre o professor no Brasil, em função de jogos de saber/poder e dos feixes de relações resultantes dos atravessamentos vários e das marcações históricas que constituem a materialidade dos enunciados. A sustentação teórica bem como a metodologia de trabalho estão pautadas em ferramentas identificadas na arquegenealogia foucaultiana e que, a nosso ver, nos permitem refletir sobre os saberes que comparecem na base dos mecanismos discursivos que objetivam e subjetivam o sujeito/profissional professor. Conceitos como arquivo, memória, descontinuidade, regularidade enunciativa, saber, poder, objetivação, subjetivação, poder pastoral e resistência são fundamentais no tratamento que dispensamos, nesta pesquisa, a discursos que promovem algum tipo de categorização para o professor. Embora conscientes de que são inúmeras as possibilidades de classificar o professor, optamos por sistematizar os dados de nosso arquivo em duas grandes categorias: sua conduta ético-política e sua profissionalização, com o objetivo de observar o entrecruzamento de saberes e práticas que sustentam a compreensão do que deve se constituir como requisito precípuo de sua atividade laboral e, em circunstâncias diversas, do seu modo de ser. A problematização desses enunciados possibilita a compreensão de que, muitas vezes, há uma anuência quase generalizada de que o professor é desvalorizado e que por isso é necessário partir em sua defesa. Disso resulta na tendência de se colocar como elemento principal na escala valorativa a importância do sujeito/profissional professor ao 1. instruir os jovens para conviver em sociedade de forma harmoniosa, para tudo fazer sem desprezar princípios próprios aos valores tradicionais. 2. contribuir com o desenvolvimento da pátria por meio de sua capacidade de formar pessoas qualificadas para o mercado de trabalho e, consequentemente, cooperar com o crescimento da Nação. Ambas as possibilidades de objetivação do professor foram observadas tanto nos enunciados proferidos por cidadãos comuns e profissionais de outras áreas quanto nos enunciados materializados pelos próprios professores. Entretanto, a partir dos dados analisados foi possível constatar também a existência de um espaço de resistência o qual é concebido aqui como indício de que há uma escapatória a ponto de serem negadas certas formas de objetivação. Ao se subjetivar, não raramente, o professor contesta o lugar que o toma como o bom pastor, como o exemplo a ser seguido e, por isso mesmo, profere enunciados e adota posturas diversas que fogem às expectativas que existem em torno dele, podendo, inclusive, culminar no que acreditamos ser o ponto máximo de sua capacidade de “pular a janela”, a saber, no abandono da profissão.

Anthropogenic effects are causing significant environmental degradation, and regardless of actions taken to mitigate further changes, humans and animals will have to live with these impacts (IPCC 2019). Rapid population growth in coastal regions, saltwater intrusion (SWI), lowering water quality, and increased presence of toxic materials are degrading coastal resiliency. An important and popular coastal region for the United States is the state of Florida, and it is also an area extremely vulnerable to aspects of climate change such as sea-level rise (SLR) (Noss 2011). This project analyzes how the state is currently experiencing the direct and indirect impacts of toxic materials on the state’s people, environment, and economy. It will do so through analysis of the performance of federal legislation created with the intent to protect human and environmental health, quantification of current rates of using toxic chemicals and potential pollution, as well as quantifying effects of both anthropogenic and natural toxic materials on Florida’s housing market. It was anticipated that legislation such as the Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA) to ensure strict enforcement of drinking water standards and the Emergency Planning Community Right to Know Act (EPCRA) to prevent toxic pollution would be present in the vulnerable region. Also that natural phenomenon such as the harmful algal blooms significantly degrade the housing market through decreasing income through tourism and lowering housing prices in coastal neighborhoods. This project found that the SDWA is not being enforced, EPCRA data shows a huge risk to potential exposures from large storms, and that algal blooms are significant to housing prices in the state. Using these scientific findings to improve policy and appropriately communicating complex scientific topics to the public is extremely important. Doing so will enable a higher level of coastal resiliency as communities continue attempt to mitigate climate change, but also learn to understand current impacts and better live in a degrading environment.
