The disintegration of patriarchal system expressed by the bourgeois novel's crisis

The Modern Era is marked by a great revolution in the economic, political and social structure, mainly on account of the sprouting of bourgeoisie, which brings the Bourgeois Novel as a new way to express their feelings and conflicts. In this article, one of the bourgeois characteristics, the patriarchal system, will be discussed. However, the focus will be on its dissolution, which is one evidence of the bourgeois novel's crisis. The word 'crisis' can also be understood as transformation. Thus, in order to illustrate this literary revolution undertaken by women, this article analyses To The Lighthouse, by Virginia Woolf. In this novel, it seems that nothing important happens. However the Stream of Consciousness narrative, with the predominance of Indirect Interior Monologue, psychological time and intertextualities, allows for meaning construal grounded in the dichotomy life/dead. The disintegration of the patriarchal structure is seen from the perspective of power relation between the head of the family and his wife. In addition, a reflection on the role of the woman as an artist is carried out.

Região, território e planejamento estatal: planejamento plurianual e desenvolvimento regional

O presente trabalho tem a intenção de analisar as discussões em torno da dimensão territorial no planejamento estatal. Essas discussões não são recentes, elas emergiram no cenário nacional em decorrência também das questões relacionadas a um conjunto de fatores que surgem como imposição do processo de acumulação flexível e globalizado, que busca produzir espaços homogêneos. Nesse momento o próprio papel do Estado, enquanto promotor do desenvolvimento é redefinido, alterando assim, sua relação de poder na produção do espaço, estabelecendo com isso, uma correlação de força com a sociedade. Todavia as questões que envolvem o planejamento recente no Brasil passam pela resolução de pontos cruciais, que estão diretamente ligadas às estratégias de intervenção do Estado a partir de uma lógica territorializada, que em primeiro lugar tem a região como ponto de partida. Nessa perspectiva se faz necessário pensar conceito de região e de território inseridos na dinâmica de planejamento territorial/regional. A tese apresentada neste trabalho demonstra que mesmo havendo um intenso esforço na elaboração dos PPAs e, consequentemente, dos planos e programas a eles ligados, no que se refere à introdução de um “moderno” planejamento público, a partir da introdução da concepção de território e demais instrumentos de execução e avaliação, quando se analisa o orçamento-programa percebe-se que os mesmos seguem outra lógica regionalizada de alocação de recursos, obedecendo a Constituição Federal, tanto no que se refere aos programas finalísticos, quanto ao de apoio às políticas públicas e áreas especiais. Assim, o orçamento segue uma dinâmica regionalizada, enquanto os planos e programas seguem uma dinâmica territorial. Enquanto o orçamento-programa estabelece a alocação de recursos seguindo o critério de divisão regional do IBGE – que divide o Brasil em cinco regiões. Os estudos da Dimensão Territorial para o Planejamento que orientam os PPAs, destacando, principalmente o 2008 – 2011 buscam estabelecer programas de desenvolvimento a partir da criação de inúmeros territórios. Passando assim, a desenvolver um sério problema na dinâmica do planejamento público brasileiro, que é o descompasso entre Plano – Orçamento – Programa, negando, com isso, a concepção de integração presente nos mesmos.

Violência simbólica contra educandos transmitida historicamente pela cultura dominante

The aim of this study is to conduct a reflective analysis of violence symbolic in the light of the specific case of ideology. For its realization as we starting point the participant observation in classrooms of elementary school. In this process selected two cases (from many observed) that have become emblematic in the production of this work, which brought elements of evident symbolic violence experienced by students. The schoolis part of a social system and ideological and historically constructed in its place there are many cases of students victims of this violence, which reveals the need for this issue to receive the appropriate attention. Remember that you need to understand the deeper aspects of violence practiced on a symbolic way which creates a culture that camouflages violent ideology behind.

Relation between Excitation Power Density and Er3+ Doping Yielding the Highest Absolute Upconversion Quantum Yield

The upconversion quantum yield (UCQY) is one of the most significant parameters for upconverter materials. A high UCQY is essential for a succesful integration of upconversion in many applications, such as harvesting of the solar radiation. However, little is known about which doping level of the rare-earth ions yields the highest UCQY in the different host lattices and what are the underlying causes. Here, we investigate which Er3+ doping yields the highest UCQY in the host lattices β-NaYF4 and Gd2O2S under 4I15/2 → 4I13/2 excitation. We show for both host lattices that the optimum Er3+ doping is not fixed and it actually decreases as the irradiance of the excitation increases. To find the optimum Er3+ doping for a given irradiance, we determined the peak position of the internal UCQY as a function of the average Er−Er distance. For this purpose, we used a fit on experimental data, where the average Er−Er distance was calculated from the Er3+ doping of the upconverter samples and the lattice parameters of the host materials. We observe optimum average Er−Er distances for the host lattices β-NaYF4 and Gd2O2S with differences <14% at the same irradiance levels, whereas the optimum Er3+ doping are around 2× higher for β-NaYF4 than for Gd2O2S. Estimations by extrapolation to higher irradiances indicate that the optimum average Er−Er distance converges to values around 0.88 and 0.83 nm for β-NaYF4 and Gd2O2S, respectively. Our findings point to a fundamental relationship and focusing on the average distance between the active rare-earth ions might be a very efficient way to optimize the doping of rare-earth ions with regard to the highest achievable UCQY.

The power of a single prototype : sustainable fashion textile design and the prevention of carcinogenic melanoma

Is there a role for prototyping (sketching, pattern making and sampling) in addressing real world problems of sustainability (People, Profit, and Planet), in this case social/healthcare issues, through fashion and textiles research? Skin cancer and related illnesses are a major cause of disfigurement and death in New Zealand and Australia where the rates of Melanoma, a serious form of skin cancer, are four times higher than in the Northern Hemisphere regions of USA, UK and Canada (IARC, 1992). In 2007, AUT University (Auckland University of Technology) Fashion Department and the Health Promotion Department of Cancer Society - Auckland Division (CSA) developed a prototype hat aimed at exploring a barrier type solution to prevent facial and neck skin damage. This is a paradigm shift from the usual medical research model. This paper provides an overview of the project and examines how a fashion prototype has been used to communicate emergent social, environmental, personal, physiological and technological concerns to the trans-disciplinary research team. The authors consider how the design of a product can enhance and support sustainable design practice while contributing a potential solution to an ongoing health issue. Analysis of this case study provides an insight into prototyping in fashion and textiles design, user engagement and the importance of requirements analysis in relation to sustainable development. The analysis and a successful outcome of the final prototype have provided a gateway to future collaborative research and product development.

The inherent equitable jurisdiction and the plenary power of the Supreme Court of New South Wales to order the winding up of companies

Not all companies in Australia are amenable to a winding up order pursuant to the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth). The Supreme Court of New South Wales has previously dealt with such winding up applications by apparently focusing on the inherent jurisdiction of the court to consider whether the court has jurisdiction to firstly consider the winding up application. This article proposes an original alternative paradigm: the plenary power provided to the court by s 23 of the Supreme Court Act 1970 (NSW) can be utilised to initially attract the jurisdiction of the court and subsequently the inherent jurisdiction specifically utilising the equitable “just and equitable” ground is available to the court to consider and make such a winding up order if appropriate. Variation of such a paradigm may also be available to the court when considering the inherent jurisdiction in relation to corporation matters more generally.

A changing landscape : The mortgagee's power of sale in Queensland

In Australia, the extent of a mortgagee’s duty when exercising power of sale has long been the subject of conjecture. With the advent of the global financial crisis in the latter part of 2008, there has been some concern to ensure that the interests of mortgagors are adequately protected. In Queensland, concern of this type resulted in the enactment of the Property Law (Mortgagor Protection) Amendment Act 2008 (Qld). This amending legislation operates to both extend and strengthen the operation of s 85 of the Property Law Act 1974 (Qld) which regulates the mortgagee’s power of sale in Queensland. This article examines the impact of this amending legislation which was hastily introduced and passed by the Queensland Parliament without consultation and which introduces a level of prescription in relation to a sale under a prescribed mortgage which is without precedent elsewhere in Australia.
