What next for unions in Central and Eastern Europe? Invisibility, departure and the transformation of industrial relations

This article examines union revitalization in Central and Eastern Europe, focusing on two countries: Hungary and Latvia. Trade unions have not only had to cope with a declining membership base, but have also had to respond to austerity programmes and government cuts in public sector employment. We argue that the inability of unions to provide a strong voice for alternative policies to the current neoliberal orthodoxy has been driven by a declining membership base, but also by weakened social dialogue mechanisms, limited industrial representation and an ageing membership profile, exacerbated by net outward migration in recent years. However, we find that unions in Latvia and Hungary have responded differently to these issues.

Collaborative governance of smart cities: addressing multiple relations of actors involved

This dissertation aims to contribute to the discourse on the governance of smart cities (SC) by examining the collaborative relationships between various actors involved in developing and implementing SC initiatives. Poorly organized collaboration can lead to conflicts and misunderstandings, resulting in failures in realizing such complex technological initiatives. Hence, capturing the main elements of SC collaboration becomes essential for understanding how they should be developed and managed. However, the topic has been limitedly explored in prior research, with fragmented studies on narrow aspects related to the SC governance. Using Russia as an empirical setting, the study focuses on the interplay of both government and non-governmental stakeholders in constructing collaborative relationships within SC, covering both vertical and horizontal dimensions of their interaction. The overarching goal of this research is to understand how collaborative governance unfolds in the SC context by stating two guiding research questions: 1) who are the dominant actors in SC and what are their roles? 2) what are the relationships forged among them? The dissertation investigates the SC initiatives across three different cities – Moscow, Saint Petersburg, and Perm – in a format of empirical illustration as well as an in-depth case study. The dissertation provides three main contributions. First, it strengthens the link between the SC domain, public governance, and literature on cross-sectoral collaboration by highlighting ‘urban smartness’ as a source for generating multiple values. Second, the thesis offers novel view on the strategic development paths which conceptually shape the SC framework. It connects the techno-centric and human-centric perspectives of SC by showing that they are naturally linked, rather than mutually exclusive. Third, the study illustrates that SC initiatives are contextually dependent, and this dependence covers specificities of public governance, including underlying informal mechanisms, which influence the inception, development, and management of SC in the organizational realms.

Cuidado à saúde de crianças Kaiowá e Guarani: notas de observação de campo

Inicia-se uma discussão sobre as práticas de saúde e cuidado utilizadas pelos Kaiowá e Guarani da Terra Indígena de Caarapó no enfrentamento das doenças diarréicas na infância. Utilizou-se de uma contribuição etnográfica, através do uso da técnica da observação participante e de entrevistas aberta com moradores da comunidade. Em se tratando de uma sociedade que vivencia permanentes transformações de ordem social advindas das relações interétnicas e da sucessiva presença dos serviços de saúde, observa-se que o significado de diarréia infantil, assim como as decisões relativas à prevenção e ao seu tratamento, refletem comportamentos diferenciados e complexos. A diarréia, também conhecida como chiri, é definida através de sinais que, de certa forma, são semelhantes aos biomédicos. No entanto, nem sempre as explicações de causalidade e as formas de tratamento seguem, unicamente, a abordagem biomédica. A variedade de causas da doença diarréica entre as crianças indígenas implica na escolha do processo terapêutico, que pode ser desde a procura por um especialista tradicional, realização de chás e infusões e, ainda, procura pelos serviços de saúde. Tais explicações e formas de tratamento pressupõem a existência de um processo de negociação entre pessoas de uma mesma cultura e de culturas distintas. Neste sentido, os serviços de saúde ao tratar a criança com diarréia, devem considerar não apenas a perspectiva biomédica, mas também dialogar com a percepção e as práticas indígenas na identificação da causalidade, na definição do diagnóstico e do tratamento, sobretudo, pela coexistência destas práticas no contexto local

ELECTRONIC GOVERNMENT POLICIES IN BRAZIL: CONTEXT, ICT MANAGEMENT AND OUTCOMES

The State Reform processes combined with the emergence and use of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) originated electronic government policies and initiatives in Brazil. This paper dwells on Brazilian e-government by investigating the institutional design it assumed in the state's public sphere, and how it contributed to outcomes related to e-gov possibilities. The analyses were carried out under an interpretativist perspective by making use of Institutional Theory. From the analyses of interviews with relevant actors in the public sphere, such as state secretaries and presidents of public ICT companies, conclusions point towards low institutionalization of e-gov policies. The institutional design of Brazilian e-gov limits the use of ICT to provide integrated public services, to amplify participation and transparency, and to improve public policies management.
