A investigação científica que se seguiu à descoberta da infecção pelo vírus da imunodeficiência humana (VIH) representou um marco histórico importante, permitindo a instituição de terapêutica e alterando a história natural da infecção, melhorando as expectativas dos indivíduos infectados.Se, por um lado, a terapêutica antirretroviral de alta eficácia (do inglês, Highly Active Antiretroviral Theraphy: HAART), nos países desenvolvidos, teve um enorme impacto na melhoria da qualidade de vida e esperança média de vida dos indivíduos infectados, permitindo-lhes encarar a infecção como uma doença crónica, por outro lado, introduziu-se uma nova dinâmica epidemiológica na transmissão de VIH e um novo desafio para a sua prevenção.Os comportamentos sexuais são o factor-alvo através do qual se pode, de uma forma mais eficaz, prevenir a possibilidade de infectar um qualquer indivíduo na comunidade. Parece, pois, importante haver necessidade de um olhar atento da Saúde Pública sobre a vida sexual dos indivíduos infectados, não só na tentativa de, promover a sua qualidade de vida, como também, de prevenir a disseminação da doença, e, ainda mais importante, prevenir a disseminação do vírus nas suas formas resistentes.O objectivo deste estudo foi analisar a consistência do uso de preservativo/práticas de sexo seguro, em indivíduos infectados por VIH, seguidos em Consulta de Imunodepressão, do Serviço de Doenças Infecciosas, do Hospital de Santa Maria. Pretende-se avaliar, no âmbito da “Educação para a Saúde”, a necessidade de aconselhamento aos indivíduos infectados, relativamente aos seus comportamentos sexuais.Para o efeito, realizou-se um estudo descritivo e transversal. A população envolvida compreendeu todos os indivíduos infectados seguidos na Consulta de Imunodepressão. A amostra foi seleccionada através de aleatorização simples e constituída por 98 elementos. A colheita de dados foi efectuada através do método de entrevista, a qual só teve início após a assinatura do consentimento informado. O estudo decorreu entre 14 de Março e 27 de Junho de 2008.Foram analisados os dados relativamente às variáveis: sócio-demográficas, estado serológico da infecção, história sexual, consumo de substâncias, comportamento sexual e percepção de risco da transmissão da infecção por VIH.Os comportamentos de sexo não seguro foram associados ao número de parceiros sexuais/ano (p=0,007), ter parceiro sexual habitual (p=0,010), ter múltiplos parceiros sexuais ocasionais (p=0,000) e à prática de sexo oral (sexo oral receptivo, p=0,001; sexo oral activo, p=0,006).Os resultados demonstraram a importância da prevenção secundária nos indivíduos infectados por VIH. A necessidade dos centros de atendimento estarem providos de mensagem de prevenção, ensinos e aconselhamento a todas as pessoas infectadas e, também, aos seus parceiros sexuais, aumentando-lhes a qualidade de vida e reduzindo o risco de transmissão da infecção por HIV. ABSTRACT: The scientific research that followed the finding of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection represented an important historical mark, allowing therapeutic institution and changing the natural history of the infection, thus improving the expectations of infected individuals. If by one side the Highly Active Antiretroviral Therapy (HAART) had an enormous impact on the improvement of life quality and life expectancy of the infected individuals on the developed countries, allowing them to face the infection as a chronic disease, on the other side it was introduced a epidemiologic dynamic on the HIV transmission and a new challenge for its prevention. Sexual behaviour is the main factor through which is possible to prevent more efficiently the possibility of infection of a community’s individual. Thus it appears important the need of Public Health to have a careful look into the sexual life of infected individuals, not only to try to promote their life quality but as well to prevent the dissemination of the disease and more importantly prevent the dissemination of the virus in its resistant forms. The objective of this study was to analyse the consistency of the use of condoms/safe sex by individuals infected by HIV that are followed by the Infectious Disease Service of the Santa Maria Hospital through Immune-depression Appointments. The goal was to evaluate the need of advisement to the infected individuals relatively to their sexual behaviours. For that it was done a descriptive and transversal study. The involved population included all infected individuals followed in the Immune-depression Appointments. The sample was selected by simple randomisation and was composed by 98 elements. The data was obtained by interview method, which was initiated after signing the informed consent. The study was took place between 14 March and 27 June 2008. It was analysed the data relative to the variables: socio-demographics, serologic state of the infection, sexual history, substances consumption, sexual behaviour and risk perception on the transmission of HIV infection. The unsafe sexual behaviours were associated to the number of sexual partners/year (p=0,007), having steady partner (p= 0,010), having occasional sexual partners (p=0,000) and oral sex practice (receptive oral sex, p=0,001; active oral sex, p= 0,006).The results demonstrated the importance of the secondary prevention on individuals infected by HIV. It also demonstrated the need of providing the attendance centres with a prevention message, teachings and advises to all infected persons as well as to their sexual partners, increasing their life quality and reducing the transmission risk of HIV infection.

Terrorism is at the center of speeches in contemporary societies. Terrorism has caused a great instability in Western society, but if before the Islamic fundamentalist terrorism was just a threat to the West, the Arab world of today suffers this same reality. Human rights conquered in the past, are being constantly violated and forgotten by the countries that make them flag of their ideals as the US, that this fight against terrorism already violated in every way those rights. Human rights are the fundamental pillars to be able to live in society and serve to protect the humanity of the atrocities that have been committed in the past with the great wars. Human rights are the fundamental pillars to be able to live in society and serve to protect the humanity of the atrocities that have been committed in the past with the great wars. Atrocities as torture, which is prohibited by several international documents and yet these inhumane practices continue to be used as a means of combating terrorism. Democracies are fragmented and the great challenge facing this century is finding means to contain the growth of these Islamic radicals, without jeopardizing the universally known human values.

RESUMO: O Brasil em 2001 aprovou a Lei de Saúde Mental, n° 10.216, e vem implantando um conjunto de regulamentações focado na atenção integral à saúde e nos Direitos Humanos. Esta pesquisa descritiva tem como intuito conhecer e identificar o conteúdo desta lei, objetivando analisar a abrangência e adequação desse conteúdo a partir do Checklist da OMS (2005) destinado a assegurar os Direitos Humanos assinados em protocolos internacionais. Para tal, um grupo focal foi constituído com diferentes atores envolvidos com a saúde mental no Brasil, em dois encontros, com até duas horas cada. O grupo realizou um debate sobre o conteúdo da Lei 10.216/01, o Checklist foi o roteiro e norteador dos debates, tendo sido considerado minuciosamente cada ponto de checagem da lei. Ao final, buscou-se uma resposta-consenso do grupo a cada item. Optou-se ainda por observar outros dois dados complementares: os discursos públicos do deputado Paulo Delgado e a as recomendações da IV Conferência Nacional de Saúde Mental. A apreciação dos dados foi conduzida por meio de análise de conteúdo, pela qual foi possível identificar 16 temas (a partir dos 27 itens do Checklist) e organizá-los em quatro categorias de análise: Teórico-Conceitual, Técnico-Assistencial, Jurídico-Político e Sociocultural. Ficou evidente que o conteúdo da Lei, em geral, está adequado por conseguir operar e sustentar boa parte das questões da Saúde Mental no Brasil. O texto em si garante e promove os direitos das pessoas com sofrimento mental. Foi possível identificar recomendações para a gestão federal, movimento social e outros atores, tanto para aplicar e interpretar coerentemente a Lei quanto para qualificar a legislação que se desdobra a partir dela. Ficou evidente a importância da CRPD – Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, cuja aplicação à saúde mental tem sido pouco debatida no Brasil.-----------------ABSTRACT: In 2001 Brazil approved the Mental Health Law, number 10.216 and has been implanting, a group of regulations focused on the attention to health and Human Rights. This descriptive research intends to get to know and identify the contents of the above mentioned law, in order to analyze its scope and conformity to the OMS’ Checklist (2005) in assuring the Human Rights signed in international protocols. For such a proposition, a focal checking group was formed by different actors involved in mental health in Brazil, in two meetings, during average to two hours each. The group has realized a debate on the contents of the Law 10.216/2001, the Checklist from OMS, was the script and the north for the debates considering each check point of the law. At the end, a consensual group answer was given to each of the items on the checklist. Decided to observe two other complementary data: the public speeches by Deputy Paulo Delgado and the recommendations of the IV National Conference on Mental health. The Data appreciation, conducted through the analysis of the contents: it was possible to identify 17 themes (based on the 27 items on the Checklist) and organize them into four categories: Theoretical-Conceptual, Technical-Assistance, Legal-Politics and Sociocultural. It is clear that generally the law’s content is adequate; it can operate and sustain a big part of the mental health issues in Brazil. The text itself ensures and promotes the rights of the ones with mental disorder. It was possible to identify recommendations for the federal management, social movement and other actors, both to apply and interpret the law consistently as to qualify the legislation that unfolds from it. It was evident the importance of the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities-CRPD, whose application to mental health have been little debated in Brazil.

S. João da Madeira é uma localidade que desde cedo construiu os seus discursos em torno da identidade local sob o epíteto de Cidade do Trabalho. Mais recentemente, desde a última década do século XX, a cidade começou a olhar para a sua dimensão industrial do ponto de vista do seu cunho patrimonial, dentro do quadro emergente das políticas culturais e de identidade, no qual as identidades particulares – como à escala local – se querem afirmar no plano global. Partindo de uma primeira análise dos processos contemporâneos de patrimonialização do industrial no contexto de S. João da Madeira, concretizados pela via dos museus e do turismo, num trabalho de projeto que se apresenta como fase de investigação preliminar de um futuro trabalho de doutoramento, questiona-se como a antropologia poderá pensar o conceito de cultura popular fora dos contextos normalmente a estes atribuídos e como, consequentemente, poderá problematizar as fronteiras daquilo que poderá ser considerado ou não Património Cultural Imaterial (PCI), categoria com a qual a disciplina está historicamente comprometida.

Purpose: This work project should be inevitably deemed as a practical approach to a marketing problem; “How to engage low category users through the social media – the case of the make-up sector in Portugal”. Design/methodology/approach: Online structured questionnaires and in-depth interviews were used. The questionnaire was answered by 110 women aged from 15 to 45 years old and the interviews were conducted with 14 women of the same age. The interviews provided key insights for the questionnaire formulation. Findings: Women are poorly informed on make-up properties and characteristics, feeling a genuine concern in regard to this subject. Lack of time, occasional usage and skin damage are the main barriers for make-up usage by low category users. Overcoming these aspects pass by demystifying the association of make-up with skin damage and emphasise the functional and emotional benefits of make-up. Further, brands need to create contents more consumer-oriented and ask directly to fans/followers suggestions and other insights. Resort to Portuguese “common” women for greater empathy in campaigns, promote online meetings between followers and make-up professionals on social media; and finally take advantage of the hybrid condition of Facebook, which incorporates multiple forms of content presentation, including videos, the most appealing format of make-up presentation for women. Research limitations/implications: Further studies addressing this topic, by using larger samples and study of specific make-up brands and campaign programs, over social media to reach a solid growth potential of make-up market evidences in Portugal. Originality/ value: Make-up brands are emphasising their interest in linking social media and marketing their promotional mix around social marketing.

In this thesis we propose to examine the first half of the Phaedrus (sc. until the end of the palinode) in light of the opposition between the notions of μανία and φρονεῖν, as they are explicitly and implicitly presented in the erotic speeches. These are read in dialogue with what we have designated as the “implicit speech” or “speeches”, i.e., the plurality of conceptions regarding ἔρως, μανία and φρονεῖν that were part of Ancient Greek culture. Our reading of the two speeches against ἔρως, Lysias’ and Socrates’ first speech, engages with this cultural background, and extracts a conception of μανία and φρονεῖν with which the palinode will primarily confront. Our reading of the palinode divides it into two sections: the first, the presentation of the first three kinds of beneficial μανία; the second, the mythical narrative that deals with erotic μανία. We emphasise the existence of a wide gulf between these two moments in terms of their ontological, theological and anthropological conceptions. The second section of the palinode is revolutionary not only in contrast with the “implicit speech” and the speeches against ἔρως, but also in contrast with the very beginning of the palinode – which preserves many of the conceptions and assumptions found in the previous speeches and in the cultural tradition. It is in order to explain the foundation, meaning and significance of this gulf that we explore and discuss the notion of ὑπόθεσις and its role as an implicit operator in the Phaedrus. From our reading of the second part of the palinode, it is clear how the introduction of the ὑπερουράνιος τόπος brings about a radical revision of the perspectives on the nature of reality and on human nature and condition that were implicit in the previous speeches and in the first part of the palinode. We show that the ὑπερουράνιος τόπος corresponds to the projection of a multiplicity of cognitive and desiderative requirements that our normal perspective demands, but cannot possibly satisfy. In other words, our perspective is shown to be living beyond its means, yearning for something that by far exceeds what it can get in its de facto condition: the superlative. This results in a major revision of the understanding of φρονεῖν and μανία – a revision that challenges the traditional understanding of these two notions as binary opposites, thereby revealing a much more complex landscape.
