Objective: This study aimed to understand how patients with Hansen's Disease perceive self-care from the complexity perspective. Methods: Qualitative, descriptive and exploratory study based on the Collective Subject Discourse. Results: Sample composed of 15 subjects, most of whom were married males (66.6%) with a mean age of 52.3 years and were classified in the polarized forms of the disease. The following themes emerged from the DCS synthesis: having Hansen's Disease, drug therapy, self-care and lifestyle. The study provided visibility to the vertical model, which is largely hegemonic in the tradition of public health care policies, showing concern about only treating the disease, disregarding the complex relationships involved. Conclusion: Acknowledging these limitations and setting strategies to change them in favor of the dialogue among interprofessional team members are challenges to further develop self-care practices and to empower patients in relation to treatment and disease.

This is part of an integrative review whose object of study was the production of knowledge in journals concerning nursing studies that have used the Theory of complexity as a theoretical framework. This study gathers seven articles collected from a literature review of 18 publications found on the databases: Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval Sistem on-line (MEDLINE), Literatura Latino-Americana e do Caribe emCiências da Saúde (LILACS) and Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL) from 1998 to 2008. In the two former databases, the following combination of key words was used: “complexity theory” and “health” and “nursing”, and in the third: “complexidade” and “saúde” and “enfermagem. Content analysis was the methodological framework that allowed for organizing the knowledge aggregated in the theme: Health Care. It was observed that the Complexity Theory has based the comprehension of the health care process, pointing out the care provider with his practices and the environment.

One of the main tendencies of leprosy worldwide is the simultaneous action of non governmental organizations and official agencies operating eventual different strategies. This paper aims to contribute to such question focusing on some outstanding aspects of respective contemporary evolution. METHODS Application of bibliographic review and contents analysis techniques to primary data from a circumstancial set of open circulation specific publications. RESULTS Successive disagreements registered between both parts refer to the objective to be attained by the fight against the disease, if control or elimination. CONCLUSIONS New perspectives of jointed actions are being searched for now when priority on endemics control is more realistically assumed and social determination is been really considered.

This article introduces the concepts of self-organization and autonomy as presented by the thought of Michel Debrun and Edgar Morin and their relationship to the development of a bioethical conscience by means of the school educational process. The proposal aims to contribute to the development of autonomy of students and thus be conducive to their self-organization as “responsible ethical subjects”.

A complexidade do desenvolvimento sustentável configura um paradigma em que são necessárias ações efetivas de gestão ambiental que, em última instância, têm relação com a formulação e a implementação de políticas públicas. Para que haja uma efetiva gestão ambiental no âmbito municipal é necessária a participação da sociedade nos processos de gestão. Logo, os conselhos municipais do meio ambiente são peças fundamentais na promoção da gestão ambiental local com vistas a uma melhor qualidade de vida. A literatura enfatiza que a efetividade dessas instâncias está ligada, principalmente, à sua estrutura e funcionamento. Assim sendo, essa pesquisa objetivou a identificação de oportunidades de melhoria na estrutura e no funcionamento do Conselho Municipal de Gestão e Saneamento Ambiental de Santo André (COMUGESAN) como uma contribuição para sua atuação na gestão ambiental. Para tanto, utilizou-se a pesquisa bibliográfica, documental e qualitativa, no ano de 2008, caracterizando-se como estudo de caso exploratório no Município de Santo André, SP. Observou-se que a atuação de Conselhos Municipais do Meio Ambiente na gestão ambiental transcende as ações de tomada de decisão, formulação e implementação das políticas locais, constituindo-se, sobretudo, como espaço educativo e de construção da cidadania. Como oportunidades de melhoria, identificaram-se seis aspectos primordiais a serem fortalecidos em sua atuação: estrutura; composição e representatividade; capacitação; educação em meio ambiente; informação; avaliação constante. Com os resultados obtidos, sugere-se que o COMUGESAN adote atividades de capacitação para aperfeiçoar a representatividade, instituindo cursos de formação de conselheiros e atividades em educação continuada, bem como a realização de diagnósticos internos.

Este trabalho busca circunscrever os elementos que caracterizam o paradigma ambiental a fim de realçar a condição e a função exercida pelo discurso ambiental sob a égide da globalização neoliberal. Convém mencionar que este paradigma ambiental, ao ser incorporado pelas instituições neoliberais, se fragmenta e passa a comportar duas interpretações divergentes a respeito das perspectivas de desenvolvimento. Acredita-se que o teor desta ruptura preserva o movimento ambiental enquanto movimento social, crítico à economia da superprodução e do superconsumo, mas crente que um desenvolvimento sustentável somente pode ser atingido quando superadas às lógicas do capitalismo. Por outro lado, este paradigma ambiental adquire novo significado, ao ser utilizado como mecanismo de transformação do mercado em vários setores da economia, cuja ideia essencial reside na apropriação do paradigma como meio para sobrevivência das empresas. Em outras palavras, as instituições neoliberais incorporam o discurso ambiental e o conteúdo crítico direcionado às contradições sócio-ambientais trazidas pelo desenvolvimento econômico, e o transformam em ideologia na dispersão de conceitos que gravitam em torno do que denominam de sustentabilidade.

Self-organisation is increasingly being regarded as an effective approach to tackle modern systems complexity. The self-organisation approach allows the development of systems exhibiting complex dynamics and adapting to environmental perturbations without requiring a complete knowledge of the future surrounding conditions. However, the development of self-organising systems (SOS) is driven by different principles with respect to traditional software engineering. For instance, engineers typically design systems combining smaller elements where the composition rules depend on the reference paradigm, but typically produce predictable results. Conversely, SOS display non-linear dynamics, which can hardly be captured by deterministic models, and, although robust with respect to external perturbations, are quite sensitive to changes on inner working parameters. In this thesis, we describe methodological aspects concerning the early-design stage of SOS built relying on the Multiagent paradigm: in particular, we refer to the A&A metamodel, where MAS are composed by agents and artefacts, i.e. environmental resources. Then, we describe an architectural pattern that has been extracted from a recurrent solution in designing self-organising systems: this pattern is based on a MAS environment formed by artefacts, modelling non-proactive resources, and environmental agents acting on artefacts so as to enable self-organising mechanisms. In this context, we propose a scientific approach for the early design stage of the engineering of self-organising systems: the process is an iterative one and each cycle is articulated in four stages, modelling, simulation, formal verification, and tuning. During the modelling phase we mainly rely on the existence of a self-organising strategy observed in Nature and, hopefully encoded as a design pattern. Simulations of an abstract system model are used to drive design choices until the required quality properties are obtained, thus providing guarantees that the subsequent design steps would lead to a correct implementation. However, system analysis exclusively based on simulation results does not provide sound guarantees for the engineering of complex systems: to this purpose, we envision the application of formal verification techniques, specifically model checking, in order to exactly characterise the system behaviours. During the tuning stage parameters are tweaked in order to meet the target global dynamics and feasibility constraints. In order to evaluate the methodology, we analysed several systems: in this thesis, we only describe three of them, i.e. the most representative ones for each of the three years of PhD course. We analyse each case study using the presented method, and describe the exploited formal tools and techniques.
