This dissertation seeks to add new evidence to the international debate on globalization of innovation in the developing countries context. Globalization of innovation, in this dissertation, is defined and measured by the types, levels and rate of innovative technological capability accumulation and the underlying technological learning processes (sources of capabilities) at the firm level in late-industrializing countries ¿ or developing countries. This relationship is examined within a large transnational corporation (TNC) subsidiary of the information and communication technology (ICT) sector in Brasil: Motorola do Brasil during over the period from 1996 to 2006. In the international literature there is a strong debate on the extent to which innovative technological capabilities have been spreading internationally. But, the most of the studies are focused on early industrialized countries. In other words, there is still a scarcity of analysis, mainly at the firm level, from the perspective of developing countries. This dissertation supports itself in analytical basis developed in the international literature on accumulation of technological capabilities and learning in the context of developing countries. The learning processes examined in this dissertation are: (i) intra-firm learning processes; (ii) inter-firm learning processes (links between mother and sister companies); and (iii) links between the firm and other organizations of the innovation system (universities, research institutes, among others). Based on first-hand empirical evidence, qualitative and quantitative, collected on the basis of extensive fieldwork, this dissertation examines these issues with adequate level of detail and depth, in this large company in Brazil. The study results suggest that: Concerning the path of the technological capability accumulation, the firm exhibited heterogeneity in the path of accumulation of technological capabilities to distinct functions. For the functions Software Engineering and Process and Management Project the firm reached the Level 6 (Innovative Intermediate Superior), on a scale that ranges from 1 to 7; In relation to technological capability sources, the firm deliberately sought and built sources of knowledge in order to develop and sustain its innovative technological capabilities. The dissertation, thus, contributes to adding new empirical evidence to the debate on globalization of innovative capabilities from a late-industrializing perspective.

Esta pesquisa investigou estratégias internacionais no âmbito da distribuição da Petrobras. A investigação deu especial atenção a processos e contextos de não-mercado do âmbito de estratégias internacionais desta organização híbrida no setor de distribuição de derivados de petróleo por meio de uma perspectiva crítica que promove a aproximação da literatura de gestão ao contexto das economias emergentes e de debates acerca do capitalismo contemporâneo. Utilizou-se a metodologia de estudo de caso para explorar a experiência da Petrobras no seu estabelecimento no mercado paraguaio, com início no ano de 2006. A pesquisa mostrou que a Petrobras vive uma constante tensão entre seu lado técnico e seu contraponto político. Constatou-se que se trata de uma dimensão central no âmbito das estratégias internacionais da organização. A pesquisa mostrou que falta, em alguns momentos, uma orientação mais clara do governo para a Petrobras no que diz respeito ao desenvolvimento de ações e estratégias que privilegiem aspectos políticos, geopolíticos, sociais e de desenvolvimento econômico nacional e regional. Corroborou-se a central importância do lado econômico ou de mercado para o lado do não-mercado em contextos que se afastam dos pressupostos do capitalismo gerencial e se aproximam de diferentes versões de capitalismo de estado em escala global. O estudo de caso revelou que o segmento de distribuição, apesar de ser visto como de menor importância pela literatura de gestão, tem sido de central importância no novo framework de estratégia internacional da Petrobras para viabilizar objetivos de legitimação e de territorialização da empresa na América Latina. O sucesso da dimensão econômica da Petrobras no Paraguai, assim como a dimensão de (geo)política, evidencia que é possível a coexistência equilibrada de aspectos estado-mercado-empresa-(geo)política. A pesquisa mostrou que é viável atender às expectativas dos shareholders, mantendo benéfico relacionamento com uma extensa gama de stakeholders. No aspecto geopolítico, o estudo de caso caracterizou que a presença e a gestão local da Petrobras estão alinhadas aos objetivos da política exterior do Brasil para o Paraguai. A manutenção de um ambiente saudável nas fronteiras brasileiras continua sendo um objetivo importante para o Brasil e a atuação da Petrobras no Paraguai tem colaborado para isso, fomentando o desenvolvimento ampliado do país guarani.

O terrorismo contemporâneo se destaca como um dos mais discutidos tópicos da agenda política internacional. No contexto da globalização, a atuação de grupos extremistas é bem mais complexa e articulada do que jamais foi, e sua periculosidade é exacerbada pela potencial utilização de armas de destruição em massa. Se é certo que a solução para seu enfrentamento pode ser almejada pela cooperação entre as nações, é igualmente verdadeiro que o Direito pode ser um instrumento idôneo para assegurar melhor colaboração e maior efetividade das medidas. Partindo do pressuposto que o terrorismo pode ser compreendido como um instituto do Direito Criminal, apresento esta monografia, a fim de investigar como o Brasil – que notoriamente carece de normatização útil na legislação ordinária – poderia criar uma lei antiterror. A metodologia de pesquisa é primordialmente descritiva, com enfoque na compreensão do terrorismo enquanto instituto jurídico-criminal. Dedicamo-nos a um estudo crítico dos aspectos teóricos e práticos de se criar uma lei antiterror, inclusive estudando projetos de lei em tramitação, a fim de ver como o Legislativo tem abordado a matéria.

This study is a gathering and analysis of the main proposals and initiatives of Public Reform in Brazil, in a specific social area: the Education sector. The research considered the period that goes from the beginning of the 80's to the first half of the 90's, with special emphasis to the role of management in the sector's reform. The debate over the Education Reform was centered on the more general theories of the Government's reform, related on the one hand to the functions and size of Government, and on the other hand, to the management of the governmental policies. Two distinct moments were identified in the period considered, with respect to the role of Education and the priorities of the sector's reform. In a first moment, between the beginning of the 80's and the new Constitution, Education was seen as a citizen's right. In a second moment, the qualification for work was also added, as a condition for Brazil's entering a new international order. As to priorities, the emphasis was in the democratization of management and decision making processes, in the 80's. From the end of the decade on, and through the 90's, besides the democratization theme, emphasis was given to modernization of the decision making processes and management. The interaction between democratization and modernization became one of the biggest challenges for the sector's reform, and is a condition for Government to enhance quality and equity in education.

Estudo sobre o processo de formação de oficiais militares na Universidade Estadual do Maranhão. O Curso de Formação de Oficiais (CFO-PMMA) pertence à Universidade, fruto de um convênio entre UEMA e PMMA, pioneiro, no nordeste brasileiro, em aplicar os princípios dos direitos humanos e cidadania na sua matriz curricular, desde a década de 90. Mas, as aplicações destes conhecimentos nas práticas policiais são pouco evidentes. A estrutura curricular do curso prioriza as disciplinas específicas da PMMA, porém, o elenco das disciplinas da UEMA é mais restrito. Mesmo assim, há uma positividade da imagem dos oficiais egressos do curso – bacharéis em segurança pública. O método utilizado foi o indutivo, com abordagem qualitativa, aplicou-se entrevista semiestruturada junto aos informantes-chaves das instituições envolvidas. O resultado demonstrou a necessidade de uma reorientação do curso, a partir da restauração dialógica entre as instituições envolvidas, para sedimentar os princípios norteadores do curso, que é formar gestores do sistema de segurança pública, cidadãos capazes de atuarem na manutenção da ordem e enfrentamento de situações de conflitualidade.

A new paradigm is modeling the World: evolutionary innovations in all fronts, new information technologies, huge mobility of capital, use of risky financial tools, globalization of production, new emerging powers and the impact of consumer concerns on governmental policies. These phenomena are shaping the World and forcing the advent of a new World Order in the Multilateral Monetary, Financial, and Trading System. The effects of this new paradigm are also transforming global governance. The political and economic orders established after the World War and centered on the multilateral model of UN, IMF, World Bank, and the GATT, leaded by the developed countries, are facing significant challenges. The rise of China and emerging countries shifted the old model to a polycentric World, where the governance of these organizations are threatened by emerging countries demanding a bigger participation in the role and decision boards of these international bodies. As a consequence, multilateralism is being confronted by polycentrism. Negotiations for a more representative voting process and the pressure for new rules to cope with the new demands are paralyzing important decisions. This scenario is affecting seriously not only the Monetary and Financial Systems but also the Multilateral Trading System. International trade is facing some significant challenges: a serious deadlock to conclude the last round of the multilateral negotiation at the WTO, the fragmentation of trade rules by the multiplication of preferential and mega agreements, the arrival of a new model of global production and trade leaded by global value chains that is threatening the old trade order, and the imposition of new sets of regulations by private bodies commanded by transnationals to support global value chains and non-governmental organizations to reflect the concerns of consumers in the North based on their precautionary attitude about sustainability of products made in the World. The lack of any multilateral order in this new regulation is creating a big cacophony of rules and developing a new regulatory war of the Global North against the Global South. The objective of this paper is to explore how these challenges are affecting the Tradinge System and how it can evolve to manage these new trends.

A democracia tornou-se o regime preferido apenas no século XX. Para entender esse processo, um método puramente de escolha racional não é suficiente. O autor busca um novo fato histórico que levou a essa mudança de preferência e o encontra na Revolução Capitalista. Por parte dos capitalistas, a democracia é p regime político que melhor assegura os direitos de propriedade e o cumprimento de contratos. Por parte dos trabalhadores, é o regime que garante que os salários cresçam mais proporcionalmente em relação aos lucros. No plano internacional, atualmente, os principais países não têm inimigos dentre ou outros estados-nação. Aos poucos, a Política de globalização substitui o antigo sistema a Diplomacia de Equilíbrio de Poderes a medida em que a globalização é regulamentada, e o império da lei emerge no plano internacional. Globalização é inerentemente injusta para com os países pobres e em desenvolvimento, que são incapazes de competir em um mundo onde a competição prevalece em toda a parte. Tais países são simplesmente excluídos do sistema ou, frustrados, recorrem ao terrorismo. Através do debate e argumentação, será possível criar um sistema internacional legal menos injusto. E através dele, há esperança de que a idéia de um governo internacional deixe de ser mera utopia.

Since the international financial and food crisis that started in 2008, strong emphasis has been made on the importance of Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs) (or “transgenics”) under the claim that they could contribute to increase food productivity at a global level, as the world population is predicted to reach 9.1 billion in the year 2050 and food demand is predicted to increase by as much as 50% by 2030. GMOs are now at the forefront of the debates and struggles of different actors. Within civil society actors, it is possible to observe multiple, and sometime, conflicting roles. The role of international social movements and international NGOs in the GMO field of struggle is increasingly relevant. However, while many of these international civil society actors oppose this type of technological developments (alleging, for instance, environmental, health and even social harms), others have been reportedly cooperating with multinational corporations, retailers, and the biotechnology industry to promote GMOs. In this thesis research, I focus on analysing the role of “international civil society” in the GMO field of struggle by asking: “what are the organizing strategies of international civil society actors, such as NGOs and social movements, in GMO governance as a field of struggle?” To do so, I adopt a neo-Gramscian discourse approach based on the studies of Laclau and Mouffe. This theoretical approach affirms that in a particular hegemonic regime there are contingent alliances and forces that overpass the spheres of the state and the economy, while civil society actors can be seen as a “glue” to the way hegemony functions. Civil society is then the site where hegemony is consented, reproduced, sustained, channelled, but also where counter-hegemonic and emancipatory forces can emerge. Considering the importance of civil society actors in the construction of hegemony, I also discuss some important theories around them. The research combines, on the one hand, 36 in-depth interviews with a range of key civil society actors and scientists representing the GMO field of struggle in Brazil (19) and the UK (17), and, on the other hand, direct observations of two events: Rio+20 in Rio de Janeiro in 2012, and the first March Against Monsanto in London in 2013. A brief overview of the GMO field of struggle, from its beginning and especially focusing in the 1990s when the process of hegemonic formation became clearer, serves as the basis to map who are the main actors in this field, how resource mobilization works, how political opportunities (“historical contingencies”) are discovered and exploited, which are the main discourses (“science” and “sustainability” - articulated by “biodiversity preservation”, “food security” and “ecological agriculture”) articulated among the actors to construct a collective identity in order to attract new potential allies around “GMOs” (“nodal point”), and which are the institutions and international regulations within these processes that enable hegemony to emerge in meaningful and durable hegemonic links. This mapping indicates that that the main strategies applied by the international civil society actors are influenced by two central historical contingencies in the GMO field of struggle: 1) First Multi-stakeholder Historical Contingency; and 2) “Supposed” Hegemony Stability. These two types of historical contingency in the GMO field of struggle encompass deeper hegemonic articulations and, because of that, they induce international civil society actors to rethink the way they articulate and position themselves within the field. Therefore, depending on one of those moments, they will apply one specific strategy of discourse articulation, such as: introducing a new discourse in hegemony articulation to capture the attention of the public and of institutions; endorsing new plural demands; increasing collective visibility; facilitating material articulations; sharing a common enemy identity; or spreading new ideological elements among the actors in the field of struggle.
