O Brasil sob a lente dos Direitos Humanos : análise do conteúdo da lei 10.216/2001

RESUMO: O Brasil em 2001 aprovou a Lei de Saúde Mental, n° 10.216, e vem implantando um conjunto de regulamentações focado na atenção integral à saúde e nos Direitos Humanos. Esta pesquisa descritiva tem como intuito conhecer e identificar o conteúdo desta lei, objetivando analisar a abrangência e adequação desse conteúdo a partir do Checklist da OMS (2005) destinado a assegurar os Direitos Humanos assinados em protocolos internacionais. Para tal, um grupo focal foi constituído com diferentes atores envolvidos com a saúde mental no Brasil, em dois encontros, com até duas horas cada. O grupo realizou um debate sobre o conteúdo da Lei 10.216/01, o Checklist foi o roteiro e norteador dos debates, tendo sido considerado minuciosamente cada ponto de checagem da lei. Ao final, buscou-se uma resposta-consenso do grupo a cada item. Optou-se ainda por observar outros dois dados complementares: os discursos públicos do deputado Paulo Delgado e a as recomendações da IV Conferência Nacional de Saúde Mental. A apreciação dos dados foi conduzida por meio de análise de conteúdo, pela qual foi possível identificar 16 temas (a partir dos 27 itens do Checklist) e organizá-los em quatro categorias de análise: Teórico-Conceitual, Técnico-Assistencial, Jurídico-Político e Sociocultural. Ficou evidente que o conteúdo da Lei, em geral, está adequado por conseguir operar e sustentar boa parte das questões da Saúde Mental no Brasil. O texto em si garante e promove os direitos das pessoas com sofrimento mental. Foi possível identificar recomendações para a gestão federal, movimento social e outros atores, tanto para aplicar e interpretar coerentemente a Lei quanto para qualificar a legislação que se desdobra a partir dela. Ficou evidente a importância da CRPD – Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, cuja aplicação à saúde mental tem sido pouco debatida no Brasil.-----------------ABSTRACT: In 2001 Brazil approved the Mental Health Law, number 10.216 and has been implanting, a group of regulations focused on the attention to health and Human Rights. This descriptive research intends to get to know and identify the contents of the above mentioned law, in order to analyze its scope and conformity to the OMS’ Checklist (2005) in assuring the Human Rights signed in international protocols. For such a proposition, a focal checking group was formed by different actors involved in mental health in Brazil, in two meetings, during average to two hours each. The group has realized a debate on the contents of the Law 10.216/2001, the Checklist from OMS, was the script and the north for the debates considering each check point of the law. At the end, a consensual group answer was given to each of the items on the checklist. Decided to observe two other complementary data: the public speeches by Deputy Paulo Delgado and the recommendations of the IV National Conference on Mental health. The Data appreciation, conducted through the analysis of the contents: it was possible to identify 17 themes (based on the 27 items on the Checklist) and organize them into four categories: Theoretical-Conceptual, Technical-Assistance, Legal-Politics and Sociocultural. It is clear that generally the law’s content is adequate; it can operate and sustain a big part of the mental health issues in Brazil. The text itself ensures and promotes the rights of the ones with mental disorder. It was possible to identify recommendations for the federal management, social movement and other actors, both to apply and interpret the law consistently as to qualify the legislation that unfolds from it. It was evident the importance of the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities-CRPD, whose application to mental health have been little debated in Brazil.

Relatório de estágio curricular realizado na Câmara Municipal de Lisboa

The experience of an internship is always considered an experience that should be enriching, a first contact with the employment world. The intention is to build a bridge between the theory and practice - applying what has been learnt throughout the course. Therefore, it was started a new learning phase that seeks to take advantage and obtain experiences useful for a professional life based in efficiency and efficacy. The curricular internship was carried out within the Masters in Public Law and held by Faculdade de Direito da Universidade Nova de Lisboa (FDUNL)(Law School Of University New Of Lisbon) in the Câmara Municipal de Lisboa (CML) (Lisbon's Town Hall), in the Departamento de Política de Solos e Valorização Patrimonial (DPSVP) (Soil Politics and Patrimonial Valuation Department) of the Direção Municipal de Planeamento, Reabilitação e Gestão Urbanística (Municipal Direction of Planning, Rehabilitation and Urban Management) between September and December 2013. Throughout this internship, several activities within the DPSVP were developed. In an early stage, there was a presentation of the organic structure of Lisbon's Town Hall, and the Department where I was going to do the internship, and its competencies. Therefore I acquired key concepts and researched jurisprudence and legislation needed to the analysis and understanding of the activities done in the internship. In a second stage, it was done the analysis and understanding of the division into lots administrative procedures, as well as the solving of the problems occurred throughout that analysis. Besides that, there was the need to help preparing some procedural acts to be applied regarding the Department competencies, namely within the alienation, procurement, encumbrance and rental of immovable assets owned by the Municipality of Lisbon.

Relatório de estágio na Caixa Geral de Depósitos

This report will describe the activities undertaken during my internship at the Personnel Department (DPE-UPE4.1) in Caixa Geral de Depósitos (CGD), Lisbon, between September 22, 2014, and February 28, 2015. I consider that it is important to note from the outset i) that the subject of my training was suggested by my supervisor in the DPE and accepted by me; and ii) that the internship consisted essentially of carrying out research and information gathering into the different social systems that coexist within the bank and the application of each legal system in solving concrete situations of the CGD employees. The research and analysis of information was important not only for my study but for the CGD itself, as it enables the department to have such an important matter, full of specific characteristics, condensed into a single document, i.e. this report. This is a complex reality. The various welfare systems differ according to the contractual agreement linking the employee to the employer at the date when the labour contract is signed, and also the unique/singular characteristics of the CGD. In the early stage I started by trying to understand the financial institution and its organization and role and the department where I worked. So I analyzed the CGD Statutes and the legal measures that crystallized the scheme for its employees and I also researched its domestic and international operations. The first month was devoted to the research and analysis of such legislation to understand the creation of the CGD and its path to date. In the second and third months I studied the legal social systems that are applied to different groups of CGD workers. This period was quite important to identify and understand the differences between those regimes of CGD employees as well as the procedure inherent in each case. I highlighted the non-implementation of “the social protection regime of convergence” to the workers of this institution; the differences regarding the allocation of sickness subsidies paid to workers who belong to Social Security and CGA contributors, as well as the enforcement of internal rules to all the workers when a work-related accident happens. Then I focused on to assessing and examining external legislation and several internal regulations in order to obtain solutions to questions raised and situations involving by the workers, in order to understand how the DPE solves these situations. Over the last three months of internship, after this more theoretical work, I began the analysis of concrete situations involving employees carrying out their duties in Portugal and abroad. Some of these situations had been received by the department before the beginning of my internship and others over this period. When I was “working” in the DPE I analyzed “cases” that had been solved and some others without a final solution because they were still in courts. As for the last ones (new cases) I was able to follow their assessment and sometimes their outcome. Some of them became study cases for me. Over these five months of my internship, several cases were analyzed and discussed by legal experts of DPE in which I could participate. I always worked hard. I know that this action contributed to elucidate me about the treatment of the issues, and allowed me to have a direct contact with some workers and be part of a dynamic work team. For these reasons, my internship report is not merely descriptive of activities. It consists of an analysis of rules (legislation) and a regulatory framework of activities and it is also a description of several specific situations solved or in a solution process. Through this work I intend to make known the particular reality of a modern Portuguese financial institution not only because of its importance in our country but also such a large number of employees work here (in Portugal and abroad). I should add that throughout my internship I was allowed to attend conferences, within the scope of the bank in order to get a broader view of some issues related to the daily life of the DPE and the CGD. So, I participated in I Jornadas Bancárias and the Conferência Internacional do Contrato a Termo, given that the CGD is a bank and the DPE deals with legal and labour relations.

Relatório de estágio na Axa Portugal

The present report has the goal of enunciating and exposing some of the main judicial subjects that were developed during the period of internship, coming forth in the form of answers to questions properly reformulated as not to injure the confidentiality of data available while in the process of making said report, they deal with different branches of the law, although with a special focus on the field of Insurance Law. It being an academic piece, it was of the utmost importance to focus more sharply on a specific theme, in casu, medical-civil responsibility, causing the interest in this matter due to the curricular internship and a case law research on the subject. The last chapter of this paper focuses mainly on the problematic of seizure by insurance intermediary’s commissions, credits from occupational accidents and illnesses and Retirement and Education Savings Plans (PPR/Es), this being one problematic with which I dealt directly in the early stages of the internship.

Factors of poor prognosis of visceral leishmaniasis among children under 12 years of age. A retrospective monocentric study in Belo Horizonte, State of Minas Gerais, Brazil, 2001-2005

INTRODUTION: A major concern with the visceral leishmaniasis (VL) is its high lethality rate, even with proper treatment. Low age, prior malnutrition, disease duration prior to diagnosis, severe anemia, fever for more than 60 days, diarrhea and jaundice are known poor prognostic factors. The goals of this study are to describe the clinical and laboratory characteristics of VL among children under 12 years of age and to identify the factors associated with VL poor outcome. METHODS: Two hundred and fifty children under 12 years of age with confirmed VL admitted to Hospital João Paulo II (FHEMIG), Belo Horizonte, Brazil, between January 2001 and December 2005 were evaluated retrospectively. The primary outcome was the poor clinical evolution: sepsis, and/or pneumonia, and/or urinary tract infection, and/or of bleeding (expect epistaxis), and/or severe neutropenia (neutrophil < 500 cells/mm3). Odds ratio (crude and adjusted) and its 95% confidence interval for each variable were calculated. Values less than 0.05 were considered significant. RESULTS: Average age was 3.3 years (3.6 months-11.6 years), 71.2% were younger than 5 years and 47.2% lived in Metropolitan Area of Belo Horizonte. The mean fatality rate was 3.6%. Sixty-six (26.4%) patients presented poor evolution. After a multivariate analysis, age <18 months, abnormal respiratory physical examination on hospital admission, and platelets <85,000/mm3 remained associated with increased chance of poor evolution. CONCLUSIONS: The results suggest that patients aged between 12 and 18 months, with platelet counts bellow 85,000/mm3, and respiratory abnormalities at admission should be considered potentially severe.

Portuguese stagnation in the 2001-2012 period

The 2001-2012 period has been one of very low growth for Portugal. This work project tries to find reasons for this slowdown. Growth in real GDP will be explained by several variables ranging from education, capital, government and world markets. Compensation of employees, capital per worker and the exports of competitors seem to explain a significant part of the slowdown. The ratio of non-tradables to tradables is also included but not significant, maybe due to a poor sample size. Stagnation then seems to be caused both by low growth in input accumulation and productivity as predicted by Amador and Coimbra in 2007.

Relatório de Estágio

O presente trabalho divide-se em duas partes. A primeira é constituída pelo relatório de estágio que decorreu na Escola Secundária Jorge Peixinho durante o ano letivo de 2011/2012. A segunda refere-se ao relatório de investigação na prática pedagógica desenvolvido no decorrer do mesmo ano letivo. Os principais objetivos da investigação na prática pedagógica foram, verificar se os alunos mobilizaram os seus conhecimentos num contexto de Modelação Matemática e tentar entender quais as suas maiores dificuldades perante este tipo de problemas. A investigação decorreu ao longo do segundo período letivo, nas aulas da disciplina de Matemática A, numa turma do 11º ano de escolaridade. Foram propostas três tarefas de Modelação Matemática e escolhidos três alunos para uma observação mais atenta por parte da investigadora. Assim, foi adotada uma metodologia qualitativa, seguindo uma estratégia de estudo de caso e as técnicas utilizadas na recolha de dados foram a observação, a análise documental e o inquérito por questionário. Relativamente a este último, com o objetivo de recolher dados descritivos na escrita dos alunos e conhecer melhor algumas das suas conceções, foram colocadas três questões de resposta aberta sobre Modelação Matemática. No final das três sessões os alunos responderam ainda a um questionário confidencial, que tinha como principal propósito verificar qual a apreciação e opinião dos mesmos acerca de todo o processo desenvolvido ao longo das aulas. Por fim, procedeu-se à análise de todos os dados recolhidos e às respetivas conclusões.

Entre “Nós” e os “Outros”: o excecionalismo americano como enquadramento identitário das narrativas securitizadoras das migrações nos Estados Unidos da América no pós-11 de Setembro, 2001-2013

O fim da Guerra Fria e em particular os ataques terroristas de 11 de Setembro de 2001 foram importantes aceleradores de um constante (e já longo) processo de crescente securitização das fronteiras e migrações nos EUA, que por sua vez teve impacto na forma como as elites políticas norte-americanas conceberam a identidade nacional do país, ancorada na ideologia da excecionalidade da experiência e do destino americanos e associada a uma posição dirigente do país nos assuntos externos, o excecionalismo americano. As migrações internacionais são relevantes neste contexto porque expõem a tensão inerente entre a necessidade dos Estados-nação protegerem o seu território e a sua população e a impossibilidade fazer esse controlo de forma perfeita, em especial num mundo globalizado; e as dificuldades em manter uma identidade nacional homogénea quando se partilha a comunidade política com membros que à mesma são alheios/estrangeiros (imigrantes). Esta dissertação analisa as relações entre o excecionalismo americano como visão do mundo primacial para a conceção de identidade das elites políticas americanas e a crescente securitização das migrações no período pós-11 de Setembro de 2001, em especial até 2013. A análise empírica centra-se numa análise crítica do discurso (recorrendo à abordagem discursivo-histórica da Escola linguística de Viena) de textos com caráter discursivo criados pelos dois Presidentes (George W. Bush e Barack Obama) e utilizando-os como base para uma discussão acerca das formas como as narrativas securitizadoras foram justificadas pelos atores políticos norte-americanos e se o excecionalismo americano continua o paradigma através do qual essas elites veem o mundo e segundo o qual alinham as suas posições nos recorrentes debates públicos sobre as políticas de segurança e de imigração dos EUA. No fim da dissertação, concluir-se-á que a securitização das fronteiras e migrações foi e continua a ser justificada por narrativas excecionalistas, o que favorecerá a sua permanência e crescimento ao longo dos próximos anos. Ainda assim, a continuada existência de proponentes de visões alternativas à dominante e o carácter fluído do conceito de excecionalismo podem eventualmente permitir uma inversão de curso no futuro que favoreça o fortalecimento da liberdade e dos direitos cívicos nos EUA.
