ABSTRACT: Carcharhinus limbatus has a cosmopolitan distribution and marked genetic structuring, mainly because of its philopatric behavior. However, analysis of this structuring has not previously included South American populations. In the present study, we analyzed a sample of adult individuals collected on the northern coast of Brazil and compared the sequences of the mitochondrial control region with those of populations already genotyped. Relatively high haplotype diversity (12 haplotypes, genetic diversity of 0.796) was observed, similar to that in other populations but with a much larger number of private alleles. In contrast to populations studied previously, which were represented by neonates, the pronounced allelic variability found in the South American individuals may have resulted from migrations from other populations in the region that have yet to be genotyped. This population was also genetically distinct from the other Atlantic populations (Fst > 0.8), probably because of female philopatry, and apparently separated from the northwestern Atlantic group 1.39 million years ago. These findings indicate that the C. limbatus population from northern Brazil is genetically distinct from all other populations and should be considered as a different management unit for the protection of stocks.

Analisar o tipo de Participação e Controle Social exercidos no Conselho Estadual de Saúde no Estado do CES/PA no período de 2001 até 2009 foi objetivo central deste estudo, pois naquele momento duas leis regulamentavam o Conselho. A Lei Estadual N° 5.751/93 e a Lei Estadual N° 6.370/01 que contrariavam e eliminavam o princípio básico de participação da sociedade civil organizada para constituição e composição do CES/PA, listando explicitamente os nomes das entidades que poderiam ter assento no referido colegiado. Este foi o motivo pelo qual permaneceram as mesmas entidades naquele espaço, por mais de oito anos e as nomeações e posse de conselheiros ocorriam naturalmente por meio dos Decretos que os gestores entendessem necessários. Esta determinação na legislação negava a população paraense o direito de participar de um processo aberto e amplo de consulta popular na escolha de novas entidades e conselheiros a cada dois anos naquele colegiado. Esta prática contribuiu para que a sociedade paraense passasse a chamar ironicamente o CES/PA de "Conselho Biônico" a partir de 2001. Para execução desta dissertação elegeu-se a abordagem qualitativa, pois foi o método que melhor se adequou à análise de processos sociais. A pesquisa documental realizada nas atas, relatórios, decretos, portarias e outros documentos constituíram a análise empírica. Os resultados da pesquisa permitem concluir que: (1) o tipo de participação exercido no CES/PA nos nove anos pesquisados foi a da concepção liberal e o Controle Social foi o exercido pelo Estado sobre os setores da sociedade civil; (2) a relação que se estabeleceu entre Estado e os setores da sociedade civil organizada no Conselho foi aquela caracterizada pela cooptação da sociedade civil, convertendo-se num instrumento de colaboração, limitando-se o CES/PA a aprovar decisões tomadas antecipadamente pelo Estado; e (3) o protagonismo dos setores da sociedade civil nos processos decisórios e nas atividades do exercício de Participação e do Controle Social no Conselho revelou-se do tipo passivo.

A dissertação aborda as transformações no mundo do trabalho neste início do século XXI. Para tanto desenvolve um estudo teórico sobre os processos de subcontratações e o impacto nas relações de trabalho, resultante da reestruturação produtiva ocorrida em uma indústria química, a ALUNORTE S/A, localizada no Município de Barcarena, no Estado do Pará. O estudo ressalta o processo de reestruturação produtiva e a reordenação do trabalho, considerando a transição do regime de acumulação de base taylorista/fordista para um regime de acumulação “flexível”, caracterizado pela flexibilização das relações de trabalho e a racionalização do processo produtivo, que permitiu o uso de tecnologias flexíveis, técnicas organizacionais que levam à intensificação da exploração da força de trabalho e a subcontratação. A análise empírica revelou o aprofundamento da precarização do emprego e a submissão dos trabalhadores terceirizados à condição de invisibilidade frente à empresa, transformando-os em trabalhadores periféricos. Este processo de contratação e alocação de mão-de-obra se tornou excludente do ponto de vista local, haja vista que não absorveu ao quadro funcional da ALUNORTE S/A grande parte dos trabalhadores do município, não contribuindo para o desenvolvimento socioeconômico regional, resultando em maior clivagem no mercado de trabalho.

Este texto tem como objetivo analisar a ação do Estado no tocante ao assentamento de trabalhadores rurais em São Paulo. Procura-se entender esta problemática a partir de proposições teóricas ligadas ao conceito de necessidade da reprodução da força de trabalho, ligada contraditoriamente à reprodução do capital. Não se trata de um estudo empírico, embora tenha um assentamento de báas-frias corno pressuposição da análise.

The current article aims to update the discussion on the South American context making use of the theory of Regional Security Regional Complexes (RSC). It begins with a theoretical discussion, based on Buzan and Wæver's work. It then presents the hypothesis that, differently from what is assumed in the literature, the South American RSC is not a standard one, but a centred one, in which the centre is not a global power. An empirical analysis follows, showing that Brazil possesses the necessary resources, and has presented some cogent political initiatives, such as the creation of the Union of South American Nations (Unasur) and its Defense Council (SDC), but in other moments has been reluctant take a leadership role in South America. The analysis concludes that, regarding its configuration, the South American RSC corroborates the authors' hypothesis and that Brazil should consolidate its role at the centre of such a complex.

Management information systems such as ERP can bring to businesses many competitive advantages. There is a great demand for systems projects to consulting firms that have knowledge to manage this particular type of project. However, the rate of system projects that cannot achieve success is very high. The methodology of Project Management, standardized by the Project Management Institute, is a globally recognized standard and used even in projects involving information technology. In the present study, was made a case study of an ERP system implementation project in a large company, by a consulting firm. From this analysis and on contributions from the literature, recommendations were proposed for the project management, in order to better direct the PMI methodology in large projects involving systems like ERP

The paper analyzes the implementation of the new regulatory framework of urban policy in Brazil, synthesized by the Constitution of 1988 and its subsequent regulations by the Statute of the City (Federal Law No. 10.257/2001). The empirical analysis focuses on three medium-sized cities in the state of São Paulo (Piracicaba, Bauru and Rio Claro), and addresses three complementary dimensions. First: interprets the participatory processes that resulted in the new Master Plan. Second, analyzes the crisis of the developmental model for understanding the transformations experienced by the Brazilian urban network, through which the medium-sized cities took on increasing economic relevance. Third: examines the inclusion and regulation of Special Zones of Social Interest (ZEIS) and how this instrument has been used in dealing with urban problems and the housing deficit. Apart from normative considerations, the study aims to assess the actual contribution of the City Statute in the democratization of urban management.

The hegemonic version of democracy is based on Schumpeter’s approach, a legacy of liberal pluralism that reduces the formation of legitimate majorities through representation. Nevertheless, the democratization of authoritarian countries has provided innovative experiences of civil society in new participatory formats. At the institutional level, the Statute of the City regulated the chapter of the Urban Policy of the Federal Constitution of 1988. It advocates participatory formats of public policies in urban management “through public participation and representative associations”. The construction of this agenda is the result of institutional imposition and it reflects the government decisions and civil society demands. This paper analyzes the participation, its ability to share decisions, and to what extent these participatory formats depend on governments for the implementation of new paradigms of urban management. The approach combines theoretical and empirical analysis of development processes of Master Plans normatively guided by the City Statute. The empirical basis is formed by three medium-sized cities in Sao Paulo state: Piracicaba, Bauru and Rio Claro.
