Este estudo apresenta uma análise comparativa dos modelos de regulação dos setores nucleares da Argentina - a cargo da Autoridad Regulatoria Nuclear (ARN), e do Brasil- sob a responsabilidade da Comissão Nacional de Energia Nuclear (CNEN), que procura identificar, por meio de critérios de análise selecionados a partir do referencial teórico, qual modelo é o mais adequado objetivando o uso seguro da energia nuclear. O Capítulo I apresenta uma breve descrição dos modelos de regulação dos setores nucleares do Brasil e da Argentina, bem como os objetivos, a delimitação do estudo e a relevância da pesquisa. O referencial teórico, Capítulo 2, contém tópicos sobre a reforma do Estado, os tipos de regulação, a regulação no Brasil e as características do setor nuclear internacional e brasileiro. A seguir, foram selecionados critérios de análise que correspondem às características das agências reguladoras brasileiras criadas para outros setores da economia, no bojo da reforma de Estado implementada no Brasil a partir de meados dos anos 90. Posteriormente, estes critérios de análise foram utilizados como parâmetros de comparação entre os modelos de regulação dos setores nucleares da Argentina e do Brasil.

Responsabilidade social e educação para a cidadania: o caso furnas

o presente estudo teve como objetivo analisar se as ações sociais, com viés educativo, promovidas por Fumas Centrais Elétricas, promovem a cidadania. Para tal, foi realizada uma pesquisa qualitativa-descritiva, com dados coletados a partir de entrevistas semi-estruturadas realizadas com 34 (trinta e quatro) pessoas, sendo 8 (oito) empregados da instituição e 26 (vinte e seis) das comunidades participantes dos projetos por ela desenvolvidos. Esta divisão deveu-se à necessidade de confrontar as visões de cada grupo quanto ao entendimento do significado de cidadania. Os depoimentos revelaram uma riqueza de interpretações, havendo uma predominância conceitual que a nós surpreendeu. Constatamos que, apesar da maioria afirmar conhecer o termo, há uma dificuldade em defini-lo - passagem do conhecimento tácito para o explícito -, como se a sua amplitude e complexidade conceitual não coubessem em poucas palavras. Concluímos apresentando sugestões de um trabalho que possibilite uma discussão mais ampla sobre o tema a fim de permitir uma atuação mais pontual e efetiva em busca da emancipação.

Dimensions of the national culture as distance of power, legalism, formalism, posture of spectator, among others, are well-defined from the analysis we did and suggestions of how the manager should deal with these characteristics in the everyday life of its activities are presented.

Estratégia em produtos culturais: estudo de caso de empresa ex-estatal do setor de telecomunicações

In the 1990, and after the process of privatizations of governmental companies in Brazil, cultural products had gained strategical importance for different types of organizations, specially for nationalized companies of the telecommunications sector. Based on the concept of market orientation, and specifically on the concept of cultural marketing, it is possible to understand the approximation between companies and cultural products restrictedly in the level of products and services. However, there has been little questioning about the concept of market orientation and the marginalization of plural and critical approaches which leaves gaps in the understanding of this approximation. Based in other areas of knowledge which understand this approximation between companies and cultural products and based in studies that present critics about the market forces it is possible to recognize the strategical corporative level of cultural products. Based in specific approaches in strategy, and defending pluralism and interdisciplinary research, it is possible to fill this gaps in the marketing literature. Specifically, in this study, are presented approaches that recognize the dimensions of power, politics and symbolism that influence strategies and are responsible for the approximation between these strategies and cultural products. Especially in Brazil, these debates are central, since in a context composed by nationalized companies many ambiguities are common. With this objective, a case study about a telecommunications sector company that has importance in the investment in cultural products is presented. From this case study, based on primary and secondary data, it is possible to comprehend the strategy in cultural products.
