The Territorial Dimension: The Component of Business Strategy that Prevents the Generation of Social Conflicts

Taking advantage of economic opportunities has led to numerous conflicts between society and business in various geographies of the world. Companies have developed social responsibility programs to prevent and manage these types of problems. However, some authors comment that these programs lack a strategic vision. Starting with the Working with People model, created for the field of rural development planning, this paper proposes a methodology to prevent the generation of social conflicts from business strategy: the territorial dimension. The proposal emphasizes that local development support prevents the generation of social conflicts. Finally, an experience in Peru, a country that has been characterized in recent years by high economic growth and also by the presence of social conflicts that have stopped entrepreneurship is analyzed.

Addressing overlapping land claim conflicts : an (alter)native approach

Le présent mémoire est consacré à l'étude des chevauchements entre revendications territoriales autochtones. On s'y interroge sur l’origine et l’évolution de ces chevauchements ainsi que sur les mécanismes qui pourraient être employés pour trouver des solutions acceptables pour toutes les parties. Notre étude retrace d'abord l'évolution du critère d’exclusivité élaboré par les politiques et décisions judiciaires canadiennes relativement à l’octroi du titre autochtone, concluant que ce critère d’exclusivité est devenu un enjeu déterminant dans l’élaboration d’une solution relative aux chevauchements entre revendications territoriales. En observant la manière dont les différents paliers de gouvernement ont échoué dans leurs tentatives de solutionner les enjeux de chevauchement, nous constatons que les traditions juridiques autochtones doivent être intégrées à la résolution des conflits et à l’interprétation du critère d’exclusivité. Ceci exige de percevoir l’institution juridique de la résolution de conflits selon une certaine vision du droit. Nous utilisons ici celle de Lon Fuller, qui présente une approche permettant de réconcilier plusieurs traditions juridiques. Notre étude nous conduit à proposer le système du Indigenous Legal Lodge comme mécanisme de résolution de conflit permettant aux autochtones de faire appel à leurs traditions juridiques dans la résolution des chevauchements, permettant ainsi de réconcilier ces traditions diverses.

Violência conjugal percebida por um menor em contexto familiar e suas consequências psicossociais

A violência como fenómeno social e familiar, não é um problema atual, desde sempre esteve presente, sendo que a sua exposição apresenta diferentes intensidades em diferentes momentos da sua evolução. Como fenómeno mundial, percorreu todas as culturas, etnias, tipos de economia e regimes políticos (Sagim, 2003). O objectivo da presente investigação é a violência conjugal percebida por um menor em contexto familiar e suas consequências psicossociais: estudo de caso. Método: A metodologia escolhida é qualitativa e é designada por naturalista. O método utilizado foi o estudo de caso e a recolha de dados foi a entrevista (semi-estruturada) e fez-se a descodificação desta através da análise de conteúdo, que foi organizada em várias categorias . Instrumentos: Questionário sócio demográficos (filha); Guião de Entrevista para adultos(mãe), semi-estruturada; Entrevista Clínica Semi–Estruturada (SCICA);A Escala de Sinalização do Ambiente Natural Infantil (S.A.N.I.); O teste projectivo Pata Negra de Corman (filha). Participantes: R de 12 anos de idade, sexo feminino, caucasiana, possui o 9º ano de escolaridade Resultados: Verificou-se que R tem uma boa capacidade de coping e resolução de problemas, indo do encontro referido por alguns autores nos meus estudos, sendo que noutros não se enquadra no perfil defendido pela literatura. Referindo segundo o DSM-5, R apresenta alguma sintomatologia clínica como a ansiedade de separação, revelando insegurança e medo da perda dos afetos por parte dos progenitores. Conclusão: : Concluiu-se ainda que alguns estudos referem que nem todas as crianças expostas à violência intrafamiliar responderão negativamente, uma vez que a presença de fatores de proteção tèm um papel fundamental. Entre estes, o ambiente escolar, o relacionamento com a vizinhança e o suporte advindo de demais membros familiares, entre outros (Sani, 2008).

Personnalité, fonctionnement réflexif et ajustement conjugal dans un contexte de traumas en enfance: Associations avec les pratiques parentales et la désorganisation de l’attachement de l’enfant

Le présent mémoire s’est intéressé à la contribution respective de la gravité des traumas vécus en enfance, des traits de la personnalité, du fonctionnement réflexif et de l’ajustement conjugal des survivants, à la sensibilité et à la négativité (i.e., hostilité et intrusion) des pratiques parentales adoptées et à la prédiction de la désorganisation de l’attachement de leur enfant à 17 mois. Dans cette perspective, 100 mères ayant vécu des mauvais traitements en enfance et de faible statut socio-économique ont été recrutées à l’hôpital Rosemont-Maisonneuve de Montréal à l’aide du Parental Bonding Instrument. Des analyses corrélationnelles menées sur l’ensemble des variables ont permis de mettre en évidence des associations significatives entre la sensibilité maternelle et l’ajustement conjugal et le FR-G ainsi qu’entre les comportements maternels négatifs et la gravité du trauma subi en enfance, le FR-G et la désorganisation de l’attachement de l’enfant. De plus, les variables corrélées à la désorganisation de l’attachement à 17 mois ont été incluses dans un modèle de régression logistique hiérarchique afin de tester leur contribution à sa prédiction. Les résultats indiquent qu’un modèle significatif de prédiction de l’organisation de l’attachement de l’enfant inclut le FR-T et l’insensibilité maternelle et explique environ 43 % de la variance de cette dernière. Selon ce modèle, l’augmentation de 1 point de FR-T diminue de 1,7 fois le risque que l’attachement de l’enfant soit désorganisé et l’augmentation de 1 de l’indice d’insensibilité maternelle augmente de 1,4 fois ce même risque. Ces résultats s’inscrivent dans le raffinement de la compréhension des pratiques maternelles sensibles et négatives dans un contexte d’historique de trauma en enfance ainsi que de la désorganisation de l’attachement de l’enfant et ils sont discutés en fonction de la littérature à ce sujet.

Estimated Disability-adjusted Life Years Averted By Long-term Provision Of Long Acting Contraceptive Methods In A Brazilian Clinic.

What is the contribution of the provision, at no cost for users, of long acting reversible contraceptive methods (LARC; copper intrauterine device [IUD], the levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system [LNG-IUS], contraceptive implants and depot-medroxyprogesterone [DMPA] injection) towards the disability-adjusted life years (DALY) averted through a Brazilian university-based clinic established over 30 years ago. Over the last 10 years of evaluation, provision of LARC methods and DMPA by the clinic are estimated to have contributed to DALY averted by between 37 and 60 maternal deaths, 315-424 child mortalities, 634-853 combined maternal morbidity and mortality and child mortality, and 1056-1412 unsafe abortions averted. LARC methods are associated with a high contraceptive effectiveness when compared with contraceptive methods which need frequent attention; perhaps because LARC methods are independent of individual or couple compliance. However, in general previous studies have evaluated contraceptive methods during clinical studies over a short period of time, or not more than 10 years. Furthermore, information regarding the estimation of the DALY averted is scarce. We reviewed 50 004 medical charts from women who consulted for the first time looking for a contraceptive method over the period from 2 January 1980 through 31 December 2012. Women who consulted at the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, University of Campinas, Brazil were new users and users switching contraceptive, including the copper IUD (n = 13 826), the LNG-IUS (n = 1525), implants (n = 277) and DMPA (n = 9387). Estimation of the DALY averted included maternal morbidity and mortality, child mortality and unsafe abortions averted. We obtained 29 416 contraceptive segments of use including 25 009 contraceptive segments of use from 20 821 new users or switchers to any LARC method or DMPA with at least 1 year of follow-up. The mean (± SD) age of the women at first consultation ranged from 25.3 ± 5.7 (range 12-47) years in the 1980s, to 31.9 ± 7.4 (range 16-50) years in 2010-2011. The most common contraceptive chosen at the first consultation was copper IUD (48.3, 74.5 and 64.7% in the 1980s, 1990s and 2000s, respectively). For an evaluation over 20 years, the cumulative pregnancy rates (SEM) were 0.4 (0.2), 2.8 (2.1), 4.0 (0.4) and 1.3 (0.4) for the LNG-IUS, the implants, copper IUD and DMPA, respectively and cumulative continuation rates (SEM) were 15.1 (3.7), 3.9 (1.4), 14.1 (0.6) and 7.3 (1.7) for the LNG-IUS, implants, copper IUD and DMPA, respectively (P < 0.001). Over the last 10 years of evaluation, the estimation of the contribution of the clinic through the provision of LARC methods and DMPA to DALY averted was 37-60 maternal deaths; between 315 and 424 child mortalities; combined maternal morbidity and mortality and child mortality of between 634 and 853, and 1056-1412 unsafe abortions averted. The main limitations are the number of women who never returned to the clinic (overall 14% among the four methods under evaluation); consequently the pregnancy rate could be different. Other limitations include the analysis of two kinds of copper IUD and two kinds of contraceptive implants as the same IUD or implant, and the low number of users of implants. In addition, the DALY calculation relies on a number of estimates, which may vary in different parts of the world. LARC methods and DMPA are highly effective and women who were well-counselled used these methods for a long time. The benefit of averting maternal morbidity and mortality, child mortality, and unsafe abortions is an example to health policy makers to implement more family planning programmes and to offer contraceptive methods, mainly LARC and DMPA, at no cost or at affordable cost for the underprivileged population. This study received partial financial support from the Fundação de Amparo à Pesquisa do Estado de São Paulo (FAPESP), grant # 2012/12810-4 and from the National Research Council (CNPq), grant #573747/2008-3. B.F.B., M.P.G., and V.M.C. were fellows from the scientific initiation programme from FAPESP. Since the year 2001, all the TCu380A IUD were donated by Injeflex, São Paulo, Brazil, and from the year 2006 all the LNG-IUS were donated by the International Contraceptive Access Foundation (ICA), Turku, Finland. Both donations are as unrestricted grants. The authors declare that there are no conflicts of interest associated with this study.

Resonancias discursivas y cortesía en prácticas de lecto-escritura

In this paper we present a study of reading comprehension based on a contrastive argumentative-discursive approach. We examine the relationship between linguistic materiality and discursive processes, observing the connection between reading in a foreign language, writing production and textual memories in the mother tongue. In addition to an interest in practical language teaching and learning processes (in this case of Spanish and Portuguese), we investigate the question of politeness and the theoretical relationship between subjectivity, language, and textuality. The latter, being understood as the result of discourse regularities, is unique for each and every production, yet is also conditioned by plural discursive memories resulting from contradictory social relationships in a specific historical context (Foucault, 1986; Pêcheux, 1990). In the experiment presented here, we follow some of the procedures of the methodology applied in the European Galatea Project developed for the study of reading strategies in the inter-comprehension between Romance languages (Dabène, 1996). We use the procedure of simulation and the subjective projection of participants as well as the notion of discursive resonance in the analysis. The results, having to do with directness and indirectness in speech and the question of politeness in two typologically close languages, lead to the conclusion that the concept of politeness goes beyond a pragmatic strategy used to avoid conflicts to be approached as a marker of cultural identity constitution. The relevance of discursive awareness and its theoretical and practical consequences are then emphasized.

Modelos organizadores do pensamento: uma perspectiva de pesquisa sobre o raciocínio moral com adolescentes autores de infração

This article has the aim to expand the perspective of research in the field of morality. We present a proposal of morality study of outlaw teenagers according to Thinking Organizer Models Theory. Through the idea of complexity we search to understand the cognitive process in the elaboration of moral reasoning inside situations of conflict. With this perspective, we developed a research that aimed to identify which organizer models were applied by 20 outlaw male teenagers who abide by social punishment to solve the hypothetical moral conflicts. Through interviews we told them a situation of moral conflict that involved friendship relation, physical aggression and steal. We could identified several models which were joined in three categories. Such models reflected the diversity and regularity that are present inside the elaborated reasoning to solve the conflicts shown by us. We conclude that the diversity of organizer models identified shows the importance of the contents in the construction of moral reasoning.
