Os direitos na esfera pública mediática: a imprensa como instrumento da cidadania

O modo como a imprensa atua em defesa da cidadania é o tema deste livro, de Murilo César Soares. Baseado em levantamento e análise de conteúdo dos jornais O Estado de S. Paulo e Folha de S.Paulo ele discute os conceitos de cidadania, esfera pública e hegemonia, com destaque para o papel do jornalismo como interface entre o Estado, a sociedade civil e a opinião pública. Ponto central da pesquisa, o conceito de jornalismo é analisado em suas diferentes facetas, como a de fiscalizador da ação do Estado - e, portanto, participante do processo político e administrativo - e a de intermediário da opinião pública. O estudo analisa ainda a mídia como meio de agendamento e de enquadramento de questões públicas, ou seja, como agente com capacidade de pautar e priorizar os assuntos para a sociedade, além de deter o poder de focar, formatar e expor esses temas ao transformá-los em material jornalístico. A atuação da imprensa em questões de cidadania é demonstrada a partir da análise detalhada de como os dois jornais paulistas agendaram e enfocaram casos envolvendo ameaça ou violação de direitos da cidadania e as atitudes e ações das autoridades públicas em relação a tais situações. A obra apresenta um painel da importância dada pelos diários à cobertura de demandas de movimentos sociais ou da precariedade de condições de vida, assim como da violação de direitos civis, como prisões ilegais, violência policial e abuso de autoridade, além da inserção dos negros na sociedade e na economia. Os resultados da pesquisa sobre a cobertura realizada pelos jornais dão suporte para o autor situar a imprensa entre os meios sociais que contribuem para a implementação dos direitos da cidadania e indicar alternativas para seu aperfeiçoamento

Zoneamento geoambiental como instrumento de planejamento e gestão de recursos do pólo cerâmico de Santa Gertrudes

The disorded and unnplaned occupation is not recent in out territory but it concerns to a historical territorial invasion that roots the time of our country discovery. However, they have started to cause issues nowadays, as in the case of urban conurbations. Somehow these unorganized urban, industrial and agricultural occupations did not have any sort of information or indication of the appropriate situation at that time. Because of that there has been researches by several groups to induce the users of the several renewable and non renewable resources to explore them according to their natural potential capacity.The Ceramic Pole of Santa Gertrudes, the national largest producer of ceramic tile, faces this problem of disorder occupation. Among other themes, the reorganization of the physical environment, proposed by several groups of researchers and scholars of this subject, is gaining attention now.The method of Geoenvironmental Zoning results in a way of prevention from this issue. Crossing information of the physical environment and generating maps whose areas and subdivisions have similar characteristics, it is possible to manage studies and handle these areas according to their potentiality.

A aventura da escrita. A produção do diário como instrumento didático pedagógico ou de como as crianças escrevem e tecem considerações sobre o ato de escrever

A simulação de Monte Carlo como instrumento fundamental para a análise de viabilidade econômica: a implementação de uma fundição de ferro em uma empresa metalúrgica

In uncertainly economic scenarios, an economic feasibility analysis must be done to accept a project based on investment criteria, such as NPV and IRR, mainly because the shareholders tend to invest their budget in a project if it has a great chance to return their investments. The studied company outsources all of its foundry services, what makes it very dependent of its suppliers, because the products have a lower quality level, long delivery periods and high prices. Therefore, this work will analyze the project of building an iron-casting foundry to decrease the dependence of its suppliers. In order to develop this research, all needed data related to the construction of the foundry and sales were collected to create deterministic and probabilistic (Monte Carlo Simulation) cash flows using MsExcel® and Oracle's Crystal Ball® software. As a result, the project was found to be risky by the NPV and IRR in the case of this new production line supplying only the internal needs. However, when the company offers its services to the foundry market, the project turns to be feasible
