Ser-para-o-mundo, salvação pela política: um estudo sobre a vontade de salvação pela política no movimento ecumênico em Belém-PA

RESUMO: Esta dissertação tem como objeto de estudo o movimento ecumênico formado por igrejas cristãs na cidade de Belém. Foi enfocado mais especificamente o surgimento histórico do movimento nesta cidade. A descrição aqui feita se utilizou da antropologia simbólica como metodologia de interpretação dos dados. Parte-se do evento da prisão de padres e posseiros, da cidade de São Geraldo na década de 80 do século XX, como evento fundador do movimento ecumênico. A história é tratada de um ponto de vista de sua relação com a cultura, sendo assim a história adquire um sentido simbólico para a prática religiosa do ecumenismo entre igrejas cristãs.

Assessment of the population structure and temporal changes in spatial dynamics and genetic characteristics of the Atlantic bluefin tuna under a fishery independent framework.

As a large and long-lived species with high economic value, restricted spawning areas and short spawning periods, the Atlantic bluefin tuna (BFT; Thunnus thynnus) is particularly susceptible to over-exploitation. Although BFT have been targeted by fisheries in the Mediterranean Sea for thousands of years, it has only been in these last decades that the exploitation rate has reached far beyond sustainable levels. An understanding of the population structure, spatial dynamics, exploitation rates and the environmental variables that affect BFT is crucial for the conservation of the species. The aims of this PhD project were 1) to assess the accuracy of larval identification methods, 2) determine the genetic structure of modern BFT populations, 3) assess the self-recruitment rate in the Gulf of Mexico and Mediterranean spawning areas, 4) estimate the immigration rate of BFT to feeding aggregations from the various spawning areas, and 5) develop tools capable of investigating the temporal stability of population structuring in the Mediterranean Sea. Several weaknesses in modern morphology-based taxonomy including demographic decline of expert taxonomists, flawed identification keys, reluctance of the taxonomic community to embrace advances in digital communications and a general scarcity of modern user-friendly materials are reviewed. Barcoding of scombrid larvae revealed important differences in the accuracy of the taxonomic identifications carried out by different ichthyoplanktologists following morphology-based methods. Using a Genotyping-by-Sequencing a panel of 95 SNPs was developed and used to characterize the population structuring of BFT and composition of adult feeding aggregations. Using novel molecular techniques, DNA was extracted from bluefin tuna vertebrae excavated from late iron age, ancient roman settlements Byzantine-era Constantinople and a 20th century collection. A second panel of 96 SNPs was developed to genotype historical and modern samples in order to elucidate changes in population structuring and allele frequencies of loci associated with selective traits.

Die Debatte über die Ziele des Vierten Kreuzzugs : ein Beitrag zur Lösung geschichtswissenschaftlich umstrittener Fragen mit Hilfe sozialwissenschaftlicher Instrumente

Der Rational-Choice-Ansatz (RCA) hat in den letzten Jahrzehnten eine weite Ver-rnbreitung in vielen sozialwissenschaftlichen Disziplinen erfahren. Insbesondere in den letzten zwei Jahrzehnten gab es wiederholte Bemühungen, den RCA auchrnauf geschichtswissenschaftliche Fragestellungen und Themen anzuwenden. Ein interssanter Ansatz dafür ist eine integrative Methodik, die unter der Bezeichnung „Analytic Narrative“ bekannt wurde. Damit wird versucht, die klassische narrative Form der Erklärung historischer Phänomene mit spieltheoretischen Modellierungen zu verbinden. Inspiriert durch diesen Ansatz geht die vorliegende Untersuchung der Frage nach, in welcher Form und unter welchen Umständen der RCA als analytische Grundlage für historische Themenfelder und Fragestellungen geeignet sein mag. Dies wird nicht nur theoretisch, sondern an einem historischen Beispiel untersucht. Konkreter Betrachtungsgegenstand der Arbeit ist der Vierte Kreuzzug. Vor über 800 Jahren endete dieser mit der Eroberung und Plünderung Konstantinopels sowie der Zerschlagung des Byzantinischen Reichs. Seit mehr als 150 Jahren streiten Historiker über die Ursachen für diese Ereignisse. Die theoretischenrnGrundpositionen, die innerhalb dieser Debatte durch einzelne Historiker einge-rnnommen wurden, dienen als Ausgangspunkt für die hier verfolgte Untersuchung.rnEs wird gezeigt, dass die Daten, die uns über den Vierten Kreuzzug vorliegen,rndie Möglichkeit eröffnen, verschiedene auf dem RCA basierende Analyseverfah-rnren zur Anwendung zu bringen. Das zentrale Ziel der Analyse besteht darin, ausrnden vorhandenen Quellen neue Einsichten in die strategischen Handlungsoptionen der für den Verlauf des Kreuzzugs relevanten Akteure zu generieren undrnüberdies ein Höchstmaß an Überprüfbarkeit zu gewährleisten.

The Little Metropolis: Religion, Politics, & Spolia

There have been numerous councils throughout the Catholic Church?s history. From the First Council of Nicaea in 325 CE to Vatican II in 1962, only a few centuries have passed without any major church doctrinal change. Following hand in hand with changes in doctrine came the bifurcation of the Christian Church into the Roman CatholicChurch and the Orthodox Church. The first split came in 325 CE with Arianism. Arius of Alexandria and his followers did not agree with the Catholic Church?s viewpoint that the son, Jesus, should be on equal footing with the Father and the Holy Spirit. Constantine the Great brought the Arianism debate to the First Council of Nicaea,which declared Arianism a heretical religion. The following Catholic council?s decisions separated the two Churches even more, eventually creating the formal separation of the Church during the East-West Schism in the middle of the 11th century. Although the twoChurches constantly tried to unite, the Churches hit speed bumps along the way. Eventually, the 1274 Second Council of Lyons officially united the two Churches, even if only for an ephemeral time. At first glance, it might not seem that much resulted from the 1274 Second Council of Lyons. Almost immediately after the council?s ruling, the two Churches split again. Little is known as to why the 1274 Second Council of Lyons ultimately failed in its unification attempt. In this thesis, I will examine the churches of the Little Metropolis at Athens, Merbaka in the Argolid, and Agioi Theodoroi in Athens. In detailing the architectural features of these buildings, I will reconstruct the church building program in association with the 1274 Second Council of Lyons. I will also compare these churchesusing historical sources to keep the sociological, religious, political, and historical context accurate.

Die historische und ekklesiologische Tiefe voll ausschöpfen. Respons zum Beitrag von Dorothea Sattler

This contribution responds to Dorothea Sattler’s thoughts about ecclesiology in an ecumenical context. First it describes in short the influence of Kurt Stalder’s theology for his generation of Old Catholic theologians, parish priests and lay people, as well as his contribution to the ecumenical theology in the 20th century. After that the author reacts on the three parts of Sattler’s contribution: on the Petrine function, on the apostolicity of ministry and on contemporary plurality and the unity of the church.
