De siderúrgica a turística : Breve historia ocupacional de la ciudad de Palpalá (Jujuy-Argentina)

The growth of Palpalá City (Province of Jujuy, argentina) since the 1940s, is linked to altos Hornos Zapla (ahz) the state-owned steel and iron company whose privatization in the early 1990s as part of the external three-sided opening, privatizations and deregulation which characterized convertibility, meant large changes in the local economic structure. In the 1950s, this city was identified by the town hall as 'mother of Industries' ('madre de Industrias'), whereas today, the municipal slogan is 'City of Tourism' ('Ciudad Turística'). Recovering the recent occupational history of this city meets the need to know the labor and socioeconomic reality of this urban area in the Province of Jujuy, about which information is rare. Although it is included in the Home Survey?s sample, it is shown in blocks, making the information very limited. It is paradigmaticin this city to study the means chosen to try to overcome the traumatic shock that ahz's privatization meant, to analyze the policies developed and evaluate their results, some years after their application. In Palpalá, a local development strategy was applied, with a strong impulse to micro-businesses, following, somehow, the model postulated at national level, what will allow us to know the local reality better, as well as the regional and national realities for its characteristics. The methodology used in this work ('From iron and steel industry to tourist city. Brief occupational history of Palpala city) was the bibliographic research of the rare existing studies, interviews to qualified informers as well as the use of secondary data sources, such as data from different national Censuses. To conclude, it can be said that due to the crisis of the 1990s and its state reducing plan, those who suffered its consequences less are, paradoxically, those who are still related to state jobs. In Palpalá, when ahz was privatized and the buyer company failed to fulfill its contract duly, leaving a great number of the local people unemployed, it was the municipal government who had to assume the responsibility of an answer ( in this case, through training, credit and/or counseling to micro-businessmen) In the last years, however, the possibility to work in informal activities has become important in Palpalá, with a high percentage of people working in city fairs selling different kinds of goods. although the change in the model in the recent years has allowed the reactivation in different areas, a preliminary evaluation is that the improvement does not seem to have reached the core of excluded and marginalized of the previous decade

Hacendados, Cabildo y "corraleros" : El acceso de los hacendados al abasto de carne a partir del estudio de dos estancias de la campaña sur de Buenos Aires (1785-1809)

Algunas tradiciones historiográficas señalaban que el mercado colonial de abasto porteño era controlado por un grupo de hacendados en acuerdo con el Cabildo de Buenos Aires. La fijación de precios debía, por lo tanto, favorecer a los grandes hacendados en detrimento de una población. Sin embargo, a partir del estudio de las cuentas de una estancia, es posible demostrar que incluso grandes hacendados se encontraban subordinados a un mercado regulado donde el eje de una puja por el beneficio de transferencias de valor se situaba sobre todo entre el propio Cabildo y los "corraleros", comercializadores que conectaban la campaña con los corrales de Buenos Aires

La planta Miralles: representación y pensamiento en la arquitectura de Enric Miralles

Resulta imposible disociar la evolución de la arquitectura de Enric Miralles de lo que fue el desarrollo de un sistema de representación propio. Partiendo de una posición heredada de su formación en la Escuela de Arquitectura de Barcelona y de su práctica en el estudio Viaplana-Piñón, donde adquiere el gusto por la precisión en el dibujo técnico, la delineación sobre papel vegetal o el grafismo constituido exclusivamente a base de líneas del mismo grosor, Miralles pronto evoluciona hacia un método caracterizado por un personal uso del sistema diédrico, vinculado a una concepción fragmentaria de la planta de arquitectura y del espacio mismo. Miralles proyectará por fragmentos de planta, asignándoles una geometría característica para diferenciarlos entre sí y desarrollar su espacialidad y sección con cierta autonomía, a través de planos y maquetas independientes. Gran parte de la arquitectura que elabora con Carme Pinós, en solitario o con Benedetta Tagliabue, estará compuesta por colecciones de piezas heterogéneas herederas de los fragmentos de la planta original, que encajan entre sí no en base a esquemas clásicos de integración subordinada o jerárquica, sino a través de posiciones relativas de yuxtaposición o superposición, caracterizadas por una ausencia de compacidad en la solución de conjunto. Este sistema de representación se apoya por tanto en la geometría como mecanismo de diferenciación por piezas, se basa en la fragmentación del diédrico desde la fragmentación de la planta, y en la falta de compacidad como soporte de pensamiento separativo. Un sistema que se define como “planta Miralles”, término que incluye todas las técnicas de representación empleadas por el arquitecto, desde planos a maquetas, pero que enfatiza la importancia estratégica de la planta como origen y guía del proyecto de arquitectura. La tesis se estructura en los tres primeros capítulos como un corolario de las categorías enunciadas, explicando, en orden cronológico a través de los proyectos, la evolución de la geometría, la utilización del diédrico, y el impacto de la falta de compacidad en la obra construida. Mientras que estos capítulos son globales, se refieren a la trayectoria de este método en su totalidad, el cuarto y último es un estudio de detalle de su aplicación en un proyecto particular, el Ayuntamiento de Utrecht, a través de los dibujos originales de Miralles. Tanto en la explicación global como en el estudio de detalle de este sistema de representación, la tesis pone de manifiesto su instrumentalidad en el pensamiento de esta arquitectura, argumentando que ésta no podría haber sido desarrollada sin la existencia del mismo. La relación entre representación y pensamiento es por tanto un tema capital para explicar esta obra. No obstante, hasta la fecha, las referencias al mismo en la bibliografía disponible no han pasado de ser una colección de opiniones dispersas, incapaces de construir por sí mismas un cuerpo estructurado y coherente de conocimiento. Se ha insistido sobremanera en el análisis y contextualización de los proyectos individuales, y poco en el estudio de la técnica proyectual utilizada para pensarlos y llevarlos a cabo. En definitiva, se han priorizado los resultados frente a los procesos creativos, existiendo por tanto un inexplicable vacío teórico respecto a un tema de gran importancia. Este vacío es el marco donde se inserta la necesidad de esta tesis doctoral. La investigación que aquí se presenta explica el origen y evolución del sistema de representación de Enric Miralles, desde su etapa como estudiante en la Escuela de Arquitectura de Barcelona hasta los últimos proyectos que elabora con Benedetta Tagliabue, así como el estudio de sus consecuencias en la obra construida. Termina concluyendo que su desarrollo es paralelo al de la arquitectura de Miralles, poniendo de manifiesto su vinculación y mutua interdependencia. ABSTRACT It is impossible to dissociate the evolution of the architecture of Enric Miralles from the development of his own system of representation. Starting from a position inherited from his training at the Barcelona School of Architecture and his practice at the office of Viaplana-Piñón, where he acquires a liking for precision in drafting and a graphic style based exclusively on lines of the same thickness, Miralles soon moves into a method defined by a customized use of the dihedral system, connected to a fragmented conception of the floorplan and space itself. Breaking up the floorplan into multiple fragments, Miralles will design an architecture where each of them has a unique shape and geometry, developing their sections and spatial qualities with a certain degree of autonomy within the whole, through separate plans and models. Many of the projects he designs with Carme Pinós, individually or with Benedetta Tagliabue, will consist of collections of heterogeneous pieces, heirs of the original floorplan fragments, which do not fit together according to classical principles of subordinate or hierarchical integration, but based on relative positions of juxtaposition or superposition that lead to a lack of compactness in the overall scheme. This system of representation is thus based on the use of geometry as a way of differentiating architectural pieces, on the fragmentation of the dihedral system from the fragmentation of the floorplan, and on a lack of compactness as a device of separative thinking. This system is defined as “Miralles plan”, a term that includes all techniques of representation used by the architect, from plans to models, and that emphasizes the particular importance of the floorplan as the guiding force of the design process. The first three chapters of the thesis have been structured as a corollary of these categories, explaining, in chronological order through Miralles’ projects, the evolution of geometry, the customization of the dihedral system, and the impact of the lack of compactness on the built work. While these three chapters are global, for they refer to the overall evolution of this system, the fourth and last one is a case study of its application to a particular project, the Utrecht Town Hall, through Miralles’ original drawings. Both in the global and particular explanations of this system of representation, the thesis highlights its instrumentality in the process of thinking this architecture, arguing that it could not have been designed without its parallel development. The relationship between thinking and representation is therefore a key issue to explain this architecture. However, to date, existing references to it in the available literature have not evolved from a collection of scattered opinions, unable to build for themselves a structured and coherent body of knowledge. Great emphasis has been put on the critical contextualization of this architecture through the analysis of the projects themselves, but little on the study of the design technique used to think and carry them out. Results have been prioritized over creative processes, existing therefore an inexplicable theoretical void on an issue of great importance. This void is the conceptual framework where the need for this thesis is inserted. This research explains the origin and evolution of Enric Miralles’ system of representation, from his time as student at the Barcelona School of Architecture to the last projects he designed with Benedetta Tagliabue, as well as the study of its impact on the built work. It concludes that the development of this system runs parallel to that of the architecture it is used for, making it explicit its indissolubility and mutual interdependence.

Air Mines. Urban Space Station

Air Mines The sky over the city's port was the color of a faulty screen, only partly lit up. As the silhouette of nearby buildings became darker, but more clearly visible against the fading blur-filter of a background, the realization came about how persistent a change had been taking place. Slowly, old wooden water reservoirs and rattling HVAC systems stopped being the only inhabitants of roofs. Slightly trembling, milkish jellyfish-translucent air volumes had joined the show in multiples. A few years ago artists and architects seized upon the death of buildings as their life-saving media. Equipped with constructive atlases and instruments they started disemboweling their subjects, poking about their systems, dumping out on the street the battered ugliness of their embarrassing bits and pieces, so rightly hidden by facades and height from everyday view. But, would you believe it? Even ?old ladies?, investment bankers or small children failed to get upset. Of course, old ladies are not what they used to be. It was old ladies themselves that made it happen after years of fights with the town hall, imaginative proposals and factual arguments. An industry with little financial gains but lots of welcome externalities was not, in fact, the ground for investment bankers. But they too had to admit that having otherwise stately buildings make fine particulate pencils with their facades was not the worse that could happen. Yes, making soot pencils had been found an interesting and visible end product of the endeavor, a sort of mining the air for vintage writing tools one can actually touch. The new view from the street did not seem as solid or dignified as that of old, and they hated that the market for Fine Particulates Extraction (FPE, read efpee) had to be applied on a matrix of blocks and streets that prevented undue concentration of the best or worse solutions. It had to be an evenly distributed city policy in order for the city to apply for cleaning casino money. Once the first prototypes had been deployed in buildings siding Garden Avenue or Bulwark Street even fast movers appreciated the sidekick of flower and plant smell dripping down the Urban Space Stations (USS, read use; USSs, read uses) as air and walls cooled off for a few hours after sunset. Enough. It was all nice to remember, but it was now time to go up and start the lightweight afternoon maintenance of their USS. Coop discussions had taken place all through the planning and continued through the construction phase as to how maintenance was going to be organized. Fasters had voted for a pro, pay a small amount and let them use it for rent and produce. In the end some neighbors decided they were slow enough to take care and it was now the turn. Regret came periodically, sometimes a week before, and lasted until work actually started. But lately it had been replaced by anxiety when it needed to be passed over to the next caretaker. It did not look their shift was good enough and couldn?t wait to fix it. Today small preparations needed to be made for a class visit next day from a nearby cook school. They were frequenters. It had not been easy, but it shouldn?t have been that hard. In the end, even the easiest things are hard if they involve a city, buildings and neighbors. On the face of the data, the technicalities and the way final designs had been worked out for adaptation to the different settings, the decision of where to go was self evident, but organization issues and the ever-growing politics of taste in a city of already-gentrified-rodents almost put the project in the frozen orbit of timeless beautiful future possibilities. This is how it was. A series of designs by XClinic and OSS had made it possible to adapt to different building structures, leave in most cases the roof untouched and adapted a new technology of flexing fiberglass tubes that dissipated wind pressure in smooth bending.......

Antonio Vallejo Álvarez: arquitectura de la sensatez

La presente tesis doctoral desarrolla la obra del arquitecto Antonio Vallejo Álvarez (n. 1903, t. 1928, f. 2002) cuya larga carrera profesional permite observar una evolución que tiene como fondo la de la arquitectura española desde los planteamientos academicistas de principios del siglo XX, pasando por el primer racionalismo, hasta la influencia del Movimiento Moderno. Antonio Vallejo nació en Almonacid de Zorita, un pueblo de la provincia de Guadalajara pequeño pero singular ya que entonces se construía el Salto de Bolarque, instalación energética crucial en la época que albergaba además elementos de arquitectura culta. La familia le envió a Madrid a estudiar en las Escuelas Pías de San Fernando y luego en la vieja escuela de arquitectura de la calle Escritorios perteneciente a la Real Academia de Bellas Artes de San Fernando. Terminada la carrera realizó unas primeras edificaciones de corte historicista con relativa abundancia de estilemas academicista que van desapareciendo paulatinamente a la vez que evolucionan hacia el “decó”. De esta depuración, que puede observarse muy bien en los números 69,73 y 62 de la calle Viriato de Madrid, resulta un primer racionalismo en el que las balconadas y cuerpos volados se apoyan sobre una trama racionalista ortogonal cada vez más rígida. Simultáneamente trabajó en esta época en la Oficina de Información sobre la Ciudad del Ayuntamiento de Madrid junto a Bernardo Giner de los Ríos y Fernando García Mercadal, entre otros. Más tarde se incorporó a las órdenes del primero a la Oficina de Construcciones escolares donde se mantuvo hasta el estallido de la guerra civil. Al amparo de la Ley Salmón fundó la empresa promotora de viviendas Ar-In donde realizó una arquitectura en la que la trama racionalista cobra una gran fuerza expresiva, matizada y potenciada por grandes balcones aterrazados de corte higienista. Sus exponentes máximos son el conjunto en la calle Narváez esquina a Alcalde Sáinz de Baranda, y la manzana de Guzmán el Bueno, 75 de Madrid. La guerra civil interrumpe el proceso y tras ella nuestro autor ensaya la supervivencia del racionalismo mediante la superposición de la trama en grandes cuerpos de alzado de ladrillo ocupando las plantas de pisos, sobre un basamento de granito en la planta baja y una especie de pórtico enmarcando los huecos del ático a modo de remate. En las ventanas se colocan embocaduras de caliza de diversas formas. Esta arquitectura, muy en la línea del gusto de la época, será sublimada mediante un magnífico ejemplo de manierismo en su gran obra de la Residencia de los Agustinos Recoletos y la Iglesia de Santa Rita de Madrid. Superados los al menos tres lustros de postguerra, Vallejo inicia un proceso que podríamos llamar estructuralista en la medida en que la asunción de la situación de la estructura en el edificio y el módulo por ella creada definen sus características formales. Aquí, tras trabajar el hormigón armado en algunos edificios como los del Residencial Bellas Vistas de Madrid, lo hace con mucho más convencimiento en edificios con estructuras de acero como el colegio del Sagrado Corazón de Guadalajara. Es también importante hablar de la provincia de Almería, a cuya capital llega nuestro arquitecto inmediatamente después de la guerra civil para alejarse de las indeseables consecuencias que hubiera podido tener su fidelidad al gobierno de la República con el que colaboró hasta el último momento. En la ciudad desarrolló una extensa labor como constructor a través de Duarín SA, que se había formado sobre los restos de su promotora. También como arquitecto, con una labor paralela a la madrileña pero con menor presión ambiental, lo que contribuyó a que en cierta medida el proceso de afloramiento de su arquitectura estructuralista, heredera lejana de su primer racionalismo, fuese más rápido, como prueban realizaciones como los edificios de la calle Juan Pérez, 18 y del Paseo de la Estación, 19. ABSTRACT This thesis deals with the works in architecture from Antonio Vallejo Álvarez (b. 1903, g. 1928, d. 2002) whose long career enables us to concentrate on the evolution of the Spanish Architecture from the Academicism taking place at the beginning of XXth century , until the influence of the Modern Movement, taking also into account Racionalism. Antonio Vallejo was born in Almonacid de Zorita, a village in the province of Guadalajara small but unique because then Salto de Bolarque the crucial energy facility at the time also housed elements of classical architecture is built. His family sent him to study to Madrid in Escuelas Pías de San Fernando first, and then he attended lessons in the old Architecture school from Escritorios street belonging this last one to la Real Academia de Bellas Artes de San Fernando. Once he finished his degree on Architecture, he worked on some historicist buildings with a great use of academicist stylemes which will be disappearing little by little, turning into “deco”. From this depurationn, whose traces can be found in 69, 73, 62 at Viriato street in Madrid, our architect ends up with a first racionalism in which balconies and flown bodies are suspended on a racionalist and orthogonal more and more rigid. At that time, he was also working in the Information Office in Madrid Town Hall together with Bernardo Giner de los Ríos y Fernando García Mercadal, among others. Later, he worked for Bernardo Giner de los Ríos in the School Building Offices until the breaking out of the Civil War. Under Salmón law, he founded a developer for buildings named Ar-In, where he developed a type of Architecture in which racionalism develops a magnificent expressive force, empowered by great terraced balconies with higienistain court. His great masterpieces at this time are the buildings from Narvaez opposite to Alcalde Sáinz de Baranda and the block in 75 Guzmán El Bueno, in Madrid. Civil war interrupts somehow his process and once the war is over, our architect works on the survival of racionalism by overlapping on large bodies of brick elevation occupying different floor plants, on a base of granite on the ground floor and a sort of portico framing the gaps in the attic by way of auction. On the Windows he se colocan embocaduras de caliza de diversas formas. This type of architecture, very much enjoyed at that time, will be sublimed as a great example of manierism in his great work such as the case of Agustinos Recoletos Residence and Santa Rita Church in Madrid. About fifteen years after the war, in the post-war era, Vallejo starts a process which we could call structuralist, as lons as the asumption from the situation of the structure in the building and the created module define his main features. Here, once our architect works with reinforce concrete in some of his buildings such as Residencial Bellas Vistas de Madrid, he improves his technique with steel strucutres such as the on in the school Sagrado Corazón in Guadalajara. It is also remarkable to speak about the province of Almería, where our architect arrives inmediately after the civil war, to get rid of the consequences of his loyalty to the Republic movement to which he collaborated until his death. He developed a great career as a builder there through Duarín SA, which was launched though his former enterprise. Similary as the way he worked in Madrid,he, also as an arquitect, did his work in Almería with less environmental pressure though, fact which contributed to the flourishing of the structuralist architecture, as an heir from his first racionalism, as it can be shown from buildings in streets such as 18 Juan Pérez, and 19 Paseo de la Estación.

PASTORAL EM SITUAÇÃO DE RUA Análise das Ações Pastorais da Comunidade Metodista do Povo de Rua na Cidade de São Paulo 1992 2009

A população em situação de rua é um fenômeno urbano, agravado na contemporaneidade por fatores de ordem social, econômica, cultural que agrupa pessoas independentemente da idade, etnia, grau de instrução e gênero, em situação de exclusão social, impedidos à renda e suprimento de suas necessidades vitais, culturais e sociais. Na condição de população sobrante, enfrenta obstáculos ao desenvolvimento de suas capacidades intelectuais, biológicas e culturais; à equidade de garantia de direitos civis, políticos e sociais; à qualidade de vida em harmonia e bem-estar objetivo dos seres humanos; e ao exercício pleno de sua cidadania. A Comunidade Metodista do Povo de Rua - CMPR encontrou o seu espaço no início da década de noventa, ao tempo em que a Prefeitura Municipal de São Paulo, na Legislatura da Prefeita Luíza Erundina, promoveu, através da Secretaria Municipal de Bem-Estar social, o censo para conhecer quem era, como vivia e como era vista a população de rua na cidade de São Paulo. Neste contexto, a Igreja Metodista Coreana Ebenezer oferecia à população uma assistência dominical servindo pão, café com leite e achocolatado na região do Parque Dom Pedro II. Sagrou-se a parceria para a criação da CMPR através do despertar do poder público e da participação da Igreja Metodista Coreana através do Café do Coreano. Foi fundamental a disposição dos Bispos Nelson Campos Leite e Geoval Jacinto da Silva, ambos da Terceira Região Eclesiástica da Igreja Metodista, que iniciaram os trabalhos utilizando a instituição de caráter filantrópico da Igreja Metodista, a AMAS Associação Metodista de Assistência Social. Assim, com sede no Viaduto Pedroso e, por proximidade geográfica, a CMPR vinculou-se a AMAS da Catedral Metodista de São Paulo, atuando em três dimensões: (1) criação da Casa de Convivência, (2) abrigamento no período do inverno; (3) Criação do albergue. O Plano de Ação elaborado pela CMPR que consagrou a criação do Albergue, data da transição 1994/95 e teve como base o Credo Social, o Plano para Vida e Missão da Igreja Metodista e o Plano de Ação encaminhado à Prefeitura, à luz da vertente social do movimento Metodista a partir de João Wesley, estabelecendo que o objetivo geral da CMPR fosse o resgate da cidadania das pessoas que constituem a população de rua. Nesta dimensão, a tese está estruturada em cinco capítulos, inclusa pesquisa de campo que foi aplicada a funcionários e ex-funcionários da CMPR, com objetivo de reunir conteúdos para se analisar as ações pastorais da CMPR na perspectiva da Práxis religiosa, considerando a Práxis filosófica e educacional, a fim de perceber se as ações pastorais são ações criadoras, reflexivas, libertadoras e radicais, e se promovem por meio da CMPR o resgate da cidadania em população de rua na cidade de São Paulo.(AU)

Comunicação pública e acesso à informação: o interesse público presente nas produções da assessoria de imprensa da prefeitura de Santarém (PA)

Public communication is based on the public interest and the effective democratization of communication in publics agencies. Access to information is the base for this is materializes solidly, helping even in formation as an individual. The work of the press office is the instrument for the Public Communication and access to information is guaranteed to society , since one of the goals of the press officer is to be committed to media , providing it material quality and depth , benefiting so the citizen. The research the look exactly on reflections on the topics listed above. The purpose of this study was to analyze the news published in Fanpage and Santarem Town Hall site, in western Para, meet the demands of Public Communication and the precepts of the Access to Information Law (AIL), starting the questioning until point to Santarem Town Hall works to public communication. For this analysis, we developed a work using the techniques of bibliographic and descriptive research. Such referrals have served as a starting point for fieldwork and for exhibition on the concepts of Public Communication of Access to Information Law, Organizational Communication and Press office. The research was considered, also, because document was to identify and verify the documents with a specific purpose. This research was lifting a quantitative survey to support the qualitative analysis of the object. So considering its features is that it was monitor the Fanpage and the Town Hall site, through a specific tool and then the analysis of posts, searching to observe public communication accomplished in the Town Hall of Santarem, on the Internet, especially social media and corporate website. The methodology helped obtain indicators that allowed add knowledge about the production of the Town Hall press office, and identify if the press office productions meet AIL and Public Communication. Finally, it was suggested in this study the elaboration a strategic script of communication because it scales the actions and policies of the Santarem city, allowing citizen participation. For this, too, it suggested the training of Santarem municipal government communication team as a strategy. This training consists of speeches and wheels conversations with all the press officer of the town hall, including the secretariats.

A inserção da educação ambiental não formal no processo de implantação de saneamento ambiental na comunidade rural Colonia Mergulhão, São José dos Pinhais - PR

One of the biggest environmental problems of the population is the lack of sewage treatment, especially in rural communities and low-income. The development of technologies for efficient, low-cost sanitation need to be developed to meet the disadvantaged people of this basic service. This work was the implementation proposal of a technology called constructed wetlands, also known as Wastewater Treatment Plant for Roots Zone - ETEZR. The objective was to develop a non- formal environmental education proposal for redevelopment, using outreach methods for residents and deployment of this technology ETEZR in the rural community of Cologne Grebe in Sao Jose dos Pinhais - PR. With technical support from the Paranaense Technical Assistance and Rural Extension Institute -EMATER and the Federal Technological University of Paraná - UTFPR, 5 ETEZR were deployed in the colony through three theoretical and practical workshops, which involved total 67 people from the community 5 technicians EMATER and 13 of the Municipal Town Hall. Após4 months of implementation were carried out two collections of raw wastewater and treated to analyze physical, chemical and biological parameters. The results evaluated by chemical parameters BOD, COD, phosphorus, ammonia nitrogen comparing raw and treated sewage, demonstrate that ETEZR are effective in the treatment of sewage. 5 Seasons minimum and maximum efficiency between the basic parameters analyzed were 52.2 to 95.5% for BOD; 47 to 94.5% for COD; 21.5 to 96% phosphorus; 30-98% for ammonia nitrogen. Oils and greases, and a series of solid also achieved a significant reduction in their values when comparing the raw sewage and treated sewage, and biological parameters evaluated by means of coliforms showed a reduction of 80 to 99%. With the implementation of environmental education process aimed sanitation was possible to evaluate the perception of the population to accept the environmental sanitation technology using the ETEZR, understand the needs and sanitation concepts for the community. This research evaluated the development of the methodology applied by the non-formal environmental education in order to provide subsidies for rural sanitation plan process for the municipality.

Toponímia da vila de Porto de Mós : (1880-2015) : ecos de memória

A investigação insere-se no Mestrado em Estudos do Património, da Universidade Aberta, visando a origem, significado e memórias da vila de Porto de Mós, através da análise da sua toponímia no período que medeia os anos de 1880 a 2015. O vasto período em estudo requereu uma demarcação das datas significativas da História e a consequente perpetuação das referências nacionais e locais nas placas toponímicas. O estudo teve como suporte a recolha e a explicação dos topónimos de Porto de Mós, numa pesquisa de campo, com o apoio do registo em atas de sessão da Câmara Municipal, mapas da vila, bem como na recolha de depoimentos orais. Foi estudada a evolução demográfica e o crescimento urbano, observados nos censos e em bibliografia. A reconstituição histórica Portomosense foi feita a partir de narrativas, inquéritos e registos documentais. O levantamento dos topónimos permitiu acompanhar as alterações políticas e económicas, ao longo de mais de cem anos da vila de Porto de Mós.

Reforço do capital social de um território através de uma abordagem de estruturação da reflexão colectiva em torno dos processos de reconstrução produtiva: O caso do projecto ReADAPT no concelho da Covilhã

As teorias e políticas de desenvolvimento regional sofreram grandes alterações nas duas últimas décadas. Os factores que impulsionam o crescimento económico sustentado já não se relacionam apenas com o capital físico, nem sequer com o capital humano regional. As novas condições de competitividade enfatizam a importância do “capital social”, normas e regras sociais, formais ou informais que promovem a compreensão recíproca e a confiança mútuas entre os agentes da economia da região. Este artigo demonstra a forma como as instituições de uma região se podem organizar em torno dos processos de reestruturação produtiva e encorajar as empresas na região a adoptar normas, expectativas, valores, atitudes e práticas comuns, em suma, uma cultura comum de inovação reforçada pelo processo de aprendizagem social. A acção política dinamizada pela autarquia da Covilhã no projecto ReADAPT, a acção da Associação Nacional dos Industriais de Lanifícios ao promover as condições que sustentam e levam ao aparecimento de redes ou agrupamentos de empresas com actividades relacionadas nas áreas de maior potencial de desenvolvimento da região, e o estabelecimento de relações entre essas redes e as restantes instituições (centros de formação, universidade, sindicatos, etc.) constituem o chamado Sistema Regional de Inovação deste território. Num contexto de depressão económica sectorial e regional, o papel da ANIL e das restantes entidades parceiras assumiu-se como de “animadores e facilitadores” do desenvolvimento. A aprendizagem e a reflexão institucional conseguidas contribuíram também para o que ANIL e as restantes entidades parceiras e o sector público com o qual interagem, tenham adquirido uma nova capacidade de inovação estratégica. Neste contexto, instituições de carácter regional/local assumem-se como um elemento essencial na construção de racionalidades e no condicionamento de comportamentos reflexivos e de cooperação, indicando os caminhos possíveis a seguir aos restantes actores da região. Em suma, as dinâmicas de associação entre actores regionais são um ingrediente fundamental na receita para o desenvolvimento das regiões, no sentido em que podem ajudar outros a ajudar-se na criação de significados, na construção de capacidade para agir e no suporte à construção de redes através das quais os agentes económicos e sociais podem colaborar em benefício comum.
