A teoria de Garret Hardin intitulada “A tragédia dos comuns” apresenta a privatização e o controle governamental como saída para evitar o esgotamento dos recursos naturais. Entretanto, outros autores demonstraram que os usuários dos recursos podem apresentar eficientes formas de manejo, aliando o uso pelo homem à conservação da natureza. Esta tese analisa o uso de recursos comuns em Unidades de Conservação e Assentamentos Rurais de Uso Sustentável, localizadas no interflúvio Purus-Madeira, região Sul do Estado do Amazonas. A pergunta que norteou a hipótese da pesquisa foi: Diante das especificidades amazônicas e das regras impostas pelas políticas ambientais e agrárias na região, quais condições apresentam-se como necessárias e suficientes ao bom desempenho no uso de recursos comuns? A análise foi realizada por meio da combinação de três métodos: o método comparativo Qualitative Comparative Analysis (QCA), o método de análise institucional Institutional Analysis and Development (IAD) Framework e a lógica fuzzy. Operacionalmente, foram consideradas como variáveis independentes (X) os aspectos socioeconômicos, produtivos, ambientais e institucionais, partindo-se do pressuposto de que os programas governamentais destinados às Unidades devem apresentar melhorias nestes indicadores, refletindo por sua vez no bom desempenho no uso de recursos comuns (variável dependente Y) a partir deste desenho institucional. Os resultados confirmaram as hipóteses levantadas, afirmando-se que o bom desempenho no uso de recursos comuns, preconizado pelos critérios da sustentabilidade, somente pode ser alcançado mediante a combinação de um desempenho também satisfatório nas variáveis socioeconômicas, produtivas, institucionais e ambientais, apresentando-se estas variáveis como individualmente necessárias e conjuntamente suficientes para ocorrência deste fenômeno.

Tanto a motivação quanto seu oposto – a desmotivação – têm sido estudadas no âmbito da aprendizagem de línguas estrangeiras. No entanto, poucos trabalhos investigam esses construtos do ponto de vista de sua dinamicidade. Esta pesquisa tem por objetivo compreender a motivação e a desmotivação em alunos de uma turma extensiva e uma turma intensiva de graduação em Letras Língua Inglesa e as implicações destas na aprendizagem da língua alvo. Utilizando os pressupostos teóricos estabelecidos por Dörnyei e Ushioda (2011), Dörnyei (2011, 2001), Ushioda (2008), Gardner (2007), Deci e Ryan (2000) entre outros, analisa-se os dados coletados por meio de um questionário e dos históricos escolares dos alunos de ambas as turmas. A pesquisa em questão é um estudo de caso que faz uso do método comparativo. Participam dela 21 alunos de duas turmas de licenciatura em Letras Língua Inglesa da Universidade Federal do Pará, Campus Universitário de Bragança: 11 alunos da turma extensiva e 10 da turma intensiva. Percebeu-se que, embora existam padrões motivacionais que agrupam os alunos, a motivação é individual e mutante, já que o processo motivacional não acontece da mesma forma e exerce influências diversas em sujeitos diferentes e muda no decorrer do tempo em um mesmo indivíduo. Os dados também mostram a complexidade do construto, pois o fato de haver motivação não significa que influências negativas não possam ocorrer, bem como influências negativas podem ser impulsos para um posterior aumento do nível motivacional. Além disso, constatou-se que a motivação percebida pelos alunos não garante bons resultados nas disciplinas cursadas. Esta pesquisa poderá ajudar na compreensão do processo motivacional como um sistema dinâmico e a entender que tanto os alunos de turmas extensivas quanto os de turmas intensivas podem ser motivados, já que a motivação é uma condição individual.

Este estudo faz considerações sobre a investigação histórico-comparativa da língua tapajúna (Jê), mais especificamente sobre as consoantes em seu aspecto fonético-fonológico, comparando cognatos dessa língua e da língua suyá (também da família Jê) com o objetivo de verificar suas semelhanças e diferenças no contexto das consoantes, tendo em vista contribuir para a reconstrução do tronco linguístico Macro-Jê. Para o estudo aqui desenvolvido, foi utilizado o método comparativo por meio do qual são verificadas as correspondências existentes entre as línguas envolvidas em um estudo dessa natureza, com o fim de observar como seria possivelmente constituída a forma original, que teria originado as formas das duas línguas. Os dados de tapajúna e de suyá também foram comparados aos dados do Proto-Jê, reconstruído por Davis (1966). De um modo geral, observa-se que há poucas diferenças entre tapajúna e suyá. No caso das variações em contextos fonético-fonológicos idênticos, há a questão da variação de faixa etária, como a ocorrência das consoantes pré-nasalizadas na fala dos mais jovens do povo tapajúna, enquanto os mais velhos usam as nasais.

Scopo di questo lavoro è quello di analizzare le componenti tattiche, strategiche e sociali della guerriglia antiromana in Britannia e in Giudea, in un periodo che va dal I secolo a. C. al III secolo d. C., con l'obiettivo di mettere in luce la differente efficacia delle tattiche non ortodosse rispetto a quelle convenzionali; e di analizzare le risposte teoriche ed empiriche concepite dai Romani per affrontare questa forma di lotta. La tesi è stata articolata nel modo seguente: una prima parte analizza gli aspetti tattici, strategici e sociali della guerriglia e della controguerriglia, anche attraverso il metodo comparativo, mettendo cioè a confronto alcuni dei principali testi sulla guerra non convenzionale redatti in epoche e contesti diversi, dai quali si è cercato di delle costanti potenzialmente applicabili a qualsiasi periodo storico e a qualsiasi area geografica. Nella seconda parte si cerca di applicare tali costanti alla realtà storico – sociale dell'impero romano. Particolare attenzione è stata riservata al rapporto tra la mentalità romana, basata sul concetto di bellum iustum, e le tattiche non ortodosse. La terza e la quarta parte analizzano la resistenza antiromana in Britannia e in Giudea, mettendone in luce tutti gli aspetti, in particolare quelli legati alla guerriglia rurale, a quella urbana, al terrorismo, all'evoluzione della guerriglia da guerra per bande a guerra convenzionale e alla controguerriglia. La scelta di queste due province non è casuale. In province così lontane e diverse tra loro, Roma inviò spesso gli stessi generali esperti di controguerriglia. Questo particolare permette di notare la presenza, a Roma, di una grand strategy che, consapevole del fenomeno della guerriglia, ne affidò la repressione agli stessi generali, specialisti della controguerriglia, non esitando a spostarli, in caso di necessità, da un capo all'altro dell'impero.

The following research thesis is about a retrofit project made in Denmark, Copenhagen, and carried out on one of the buildings belonging to the Royal Danish Academy. The key assumption and base of the entire research process is that, up to now, the standard procedure in retrofit cases like this provides as comparative method between de facto and design, the use of Energy Simulation software. These programs generally divide the space into different thermal zones, assigning to each of them different levels of employment, activities, set-point temperatures set for cooling and heating analysis and so on, but always providing average and constant values, usually taken in the middle point of the single thermal zone. Therefore, the project and its research path stems from the attempt to investigate the potentialities of this kind of designing for retrofit process, as previously anticipated not antithetical but complementary to that classic energy-based retrofit, thus passing from the building scale, and all its thermal zones, to the users' scale, related to humans and microclimates. The main software used in this process is Autodesk Simulation CFD. The idea behind the project is that in certain situations, for example, it will not be necessary to add throughout insulation layers (previously parameterized and optimized with Design Builder), and that even in Winter conditions, due maybe to the users' activities, the increased level of clothing (clo) and the heat produced by equipments, thermal comfort could be achieved also in areas characterized by considerably lower MRT. After the analysis of the State of Art and its simulations, the project has still been supported by the tool itself, the CFD Software, in an iterative process aimed at achieving visible improvements in terms of MRT, on spaces with different needs and characteristics, both in Winter and Summer regimes.

Theoretical studies of the problems of the securities markets in the Russian Federation incline to one or other of the two traditional approaches. The first consists of comparing the definition of "valuable paper" set forth in the current legislation of the Russian Federation, with the theoretical model of "Wertpapiere" elaborated by German scholars more than 90 years ago. The problem with this approach is, in Mr. Pentsov's opinion, that any new features of the definition of "security" that do not coincide with the theoretical model of "Wertpapiere" (such as valuable papers existing in non-material, electronic form) are claimed to be incorrect and removed from the current legislation of the Russian Federation. The second approach works on the basis of the differentiation between the Common Law concept of "security" and the Civil Law concept of "valuable paper". Mr. Pentsov's research, presented in an article written in English, uses both methodological tools and involves, firstly, a historical study of the origin and development of certain legal phenomena (securities) as they evolved in different countries, and secondly, a comparative, synchronic study of equivalent legal phenomena as they exist in different countries today. Employing the first method, Mr. Pentsov divided the historical development of the conception of "valuable paper" in Russia into five major stages. He found that, despite the existence of a relatively wide circulation of valuable papers, especially in the second half of the 19th century, Russian legislation before 1917 (the first stage) did not have a unified definition of valuable paper. The term was used, in both theoretical studies and legislation, but it covered a broad range of financial instruments such as stocks, bonds, government bonds, promissory notes, bills of exchange, etc. During the second stage, also, the legislation of the USSR did not have a unified definition of "valuable paper". After the end of the "new economic policy" (1922 - 1930) the stock exchanges and the securities markets in the USSR, with a very few exceptions, were abolished. And thus during the third stage (up to 1985), the use of valuable papers in practice was reduced to foreign economic relations (bills of exchange, stocks in enterprises outside the USSR) and to state bonds. Not surprisingly, there was still no unified definition of "valuable paper". After the beginning of Gorbachev's perestroika, a securities market began to re-appear in the USSR. However, the successful development of securities markets in the USSR was retarded by the absence of an appropriate regulatory framework. The first effort to improve the situation was the adoption of the Regulations on Valuable Papers, approved by resolution No. 590 of the Council of Ministers of the USSR, dated June 19, 1990. Section 1 of the Regulation contained the first statutory definition of "valuable paper" in the history of Russia. At the very beginning of the period of transition to a market economy, a number of acts contained different definitions of "valuable paper". This diversity clearly undermined the stability of the Russian securities market and did not achieve the goal of protecting the investor. The lack of unified criteria for the consideration of such non-standard financial instruments as "valuable papers" significantly contributed to the appearance of numerous fraudulent "pyramid" schemes that were outside of the regulatory scheme of Russia legislation. The situation was substantially improved by the adoption of the new Civil Code of the Russian Federation. According to Section 1 of Article 142 of the Civil Code, a valuable paper is a document that confirms, in compliance with an established form and mandatory requisites, certain material rights whose realisation or transfer are possible only in the process of its presentation. Finally, the recent Federal law No. 39 - FZ "On the Valuable Papers Market", dated April 22 1996, has also introduced the term "emission valuable papers". According to Article 2 of this Law, an "emission valuable paper" is any valuable paper, including non-documentary, that simultaneously has the following features: it fixes the composition of material and non-material rights that are subject to confirmation, cession and unconditional realisation in compliance with the form and procedure established by this federal law; it is placed by issues; and it has equal amount and time of realisation of rights within the same issue regardless of when the valuable paper was purchased. Thus the introduction of the conception of "emission valuable paper" became the starting point in the Russian federation's legislation for the differentiation between the legal regimes of "commercial papers" and "investment papers" similar to the Common Law approach. Moving now to the synchronic, comparative method of research, Mr. Pentsov notes that there are currently three major conceptions of "security" and, correspondingly, three approaches to its legal definition: the Common Law concept, the continental law concept, and the concept employed by Japanese Law. Mr. Pentsov proceeds to analyse the differences and similarities of all three, concluding that though the concept of "security" in the Common Law system substantially differs from that of "valuable paper" in the Continental Law system, nevertheless the two concepts are developing in similar directions. He predicts that in the foreseeable future the existing differences between these two concepts will become less and less significant. On the basis of his research, Mr. Pentsov arrived at the conclusion that the concept of "security" (and its equivalents) is not a static one. On the contrary, it is in the process of permanent evolution that reflects the introduction of new financial instruments onto the capital markets. He believes that the scope of the statutory definition of "security" plays an extremely important role in the protection of investors. While passing the Securities Act of 1933, the United States Congress determined that the best way to achieve the goal of protecting investors was to define the term "security" in sufficiently broad and general terms so as to include within the definition the many types of instruments that in the commercial world fall within the ordinary concept of "security' and to cover the countless and various devices used by those who seek to use the money of others on the promise of profits. On the other hand, the very limited scope of the current definition of "emission valuable paper" in the Federal Law of the Russian Federation entitled "On the Valuable Papers Market" does not allow the anti-fraud provisions of this law to be implemented in an efficient way. Consequently, there is no basis for the protection of investors. Mr. Pentsov proposes amendments which he believes would enable the Russian markets to become more efficient and attractive for both foreign and domestic investors.

The Cangin languages are classified as an own subgroup of the Atlantic languages. Evidence for their common origin can be given by the comparative method. By means of the systematic grammatical comparison of different languages this method aims at the reconstruction of a hypothetic proto-language and allows to draw hypothesises on their diachronic linguistic development. This paper concentrates on the evolution of the consonant system of the Cangin languages.

Purpose/objectives. A grounded theory design was used to identify, describe, and generate a theoretical analysis of the pain experience of elderly hospice patients with cancer. ^ Sample. Eleven participants over the age of 65, receiving services from a for-profit hospice were interviewed in their homes. ^ Methods. Broad unstructured face to face audio-taped interviews were transcribed verbatim and analyzed using constant-comparative method of analysis. ^ Findings. Pain was described as a hierarchy of chronic, acute, and psychological pain with psychological pain as the worst. Suffering was the basic social problem of pain. Participants dealt with suffering by the basic social process of enduring. Enduring had two sub-processes, maintaining hope and adjusting. Trusting in a higher being and finding meaning were mechanisms of maintaining hope. Mechanisms of adjusting were dealing with uncertainty, accepting, and minimizing pain. ^ Implications for nursing practice. Nurses need to recognize and value the hard work of enduring to deal with suffering. Assisting elderly hospice patients with cancer to address the sub-processes of enduring and their mechanisms can foster enduring. ^
