Dom Dinis e as Donas: Uma galeria & Antologia de Poemas de D. Dinis

Em 1361 Boccaccio publica uma obra – De Mulieribus Claris [Mulheres Famosas], onde recolhe a biografia de 106 damas célebres até ao seu tempo. Ter‐se‐á inspirado directamente numa outra dedicada a varões ilustres, feita por Petrarca (1341) que lhe alcança o louro. Têm por raiz os catálogos de mulheres, um deles atribuído a Hesíodo (c.700 a.C.), mas em que as figuras femininas aparecem retratadas de modo pejorativo (começa com Pandora). Durante a Idade Média há a tradição das colecções de vidas (mais religiosas que profanas), mas será essa ideia que preside à organização desta antologia e orienta esta leitura do rei Dinis, da força de Isabel, e do seu tempo.

Resilience in organizations: The perspective of managers in Portugal and Germany

The concept of organizational resilience has become popular in Organizational Studies during the last decades - yet researchers have not been able to find one commonly accepted definition for what exactly it is. What are the drivers of resilience in organizations? Are there certain cultural factors and national differences regarding the perception of the concept? This paper aims to answer these questions from a perspective of within institutions. A group of managers from different corporations in Portugal and Germany has been interviewed in order to understand how managers experience and characterize organizational resilience. Based on qualitative inductive research the results show that organizational resilience is built on four main drivers: a sense of proximity, a sense of openness, a sense of challenge and a sense for structure.

Empirical evidence on the difference between the effective and the statutory tax rates for listed groups in Germany

The difference between the statutory and effective tax rate for listed groups is a complex variable influenced by a variety of factors. This paper aims to analyze whether this difference exists for listed groups in the German market and tests which factors have an impact on it. Thus the sample consists of 130 corporations listed in the three major German stock indices. The findings suggest that the companies that pay less than the statutory rate clearly outweigh the ones that pay more, and that the income earned from associated companies has a significant impact on this difference.

Optimization of export support systems: How to promote exports from Portugal to Germany in the area of information technology and electronics
