Defaunation, the loss or population decline of medium and large native vertebrates represents a significant threat to the biodiversity of tropical ecosystems. Here we review the anthropogenic drivers of defaunation, provide a brief historical account of the development of this field, and analyze the types of biological consequences of this impact on the structure and functioning of tropical ecosystems. We identify how defaunation, operating at a variety of scales, from the plot to the global level, affects biological systems along a gradient of processes ranging from plant physiology (vegetative and reproductive performance) and animal behavior (movement, foraging and dietary patterns) in the immediate term; to plant population and community dynamics and structure leading to disruptions of ecosystem functioning (and thus degrading environmental services) in the short to medium term; to evolutionary changes (phenotypic changes and population genetic structure) in the long-term. We present such a synthesis as a preamble to a series of papers that provide a compilation of our current understanding of the impact and consequences of tropical defaunation. We close by identifying some of the most urgent needs and perspectives that warrant further study to improve our understanding of this field, as we confront the challenges of living in a defaunated world. © 2013 Elsevier Ltd.

The concept of environment involves social, political and economic aspects, in addition to natural elements. The acknowledgement that the environmental issue is complex highlights the importance of understanding the dynamics of relations that guide the individuals in their interactions with the environment. In this sense, studies have shown the relation between values, beliefs and behaviors. The theory on values developed by Schwartz (1992) identifies the complexity of the relations between values and behavior, organizing the field of human motivation into ten motivational types. Studies conducted by Pato (2004) on environmental beliefs are capable of indicating how the individuals relate to the environment, and its predisposition in acting or not in an ecological manner, allowing an understanding of ecological behavior and its forms of manifestation. Therefore, the objective of this study consisted of analyzing the value perception over environmental beliefs and ecological behavior of the individuals inserted into the environmental theme of the municipality of Lavras, Minas Gerais, Brazil. The research was conducted using a sample of 82 participants, comprised in its majority of male (62.2%), married (54.9%) individuals, and those with age from 31 to 40 years (35.4%). A survey of four segments was conducted: Ecological Behavior Scale (EBS), Environmental Beliefs Scale (EBeS), Schwatz Value Profile (SVP-40) and sociodemographic variables. The participants assumed, first, a value orientation directed to the universalism motivational type, which involves an important set of values for understanding the behaviors in relation to the environment. Furthermore, the results showed that the behaviors related to urban cleaning and economy of water and energy are more easily assimilated, while behaviors oriented to activism/consumerism and recycling were not yet incorporated in a satisfactory manner. On the other hand, the fact of belonging to an institution of which mission is to care for the environment seems to induce the participants to show a greater predisposition to pro-environmental behaviors. The environmental issue, urgent and moved by not always confluent debates, points to the need for reorganizing daily life, which necessarily involves change in values and behaviors. Thus, this study is relevant given that the interaction between the constructs can contribute with the research and the proposition of strategies that promote a reduction of behaviors damaging to the environment, as well as the strengthening of those that contribute for its preservation, sensitizing the actors involved to reorder their roles for benefiting the environment.

A presente dissertação de mestrado trata-se de uma pesquisa teórica fundamentada na psicanálise e na psicopatologia fundamental e propõe um estudo sobre agressividade e o adolescente em conflito com a lei. Primeiramente demonstra-se como a agressividade é constitutiva da subjetividade, ou seja, existe em todos os sujeitos humanos, tomando como base a análise feita por Freud em o Mal-estar na civilização (1930); posteriormente estuda-se a agressividade em Winnicott (2002) o qual também afirma ser esta constitutiva da subjetividade e enfatiza a importância de se compreender este conceito em sua relação com a tendência anti-social e a delinquência. Em seguida, apresenta-se uma reflexão sobre a conduta anti-social e a delinquência onde se destaca o pensamento de Vilhena (2002) que diferencia agressividade e violência ao mesmo tempo em que articula os conceitos de de-privação com aspectos da contemporaneidade, destacando que a família é o lugar do suporte para o adolescente que transgride as leis sociais, assim como a falência dos papéis parentais deve ser levada em consideração no estudo da agressividade, tendência anti-social e delinquência. Por fim apresenta-se a teoria de Marta Gerez-Ambertín (2004) sobre o "sujeito do ato" Para a autora o sujeito deve ter um comprometimento subjetivo com seus atos através de seu discurso. Trabalha-se com a hipótese de que os adolescentes em conflito com a lei tentam encontrar respostas a seus conflitos e desejos inconscientes. Outrossim, ao adolescente em conflito com a lei, deve-se oferecer a possibilidade de falar sobre seu ato e assumir as responsabilidades por sua conduta.
