A pesquisa examina o cooperativismo sob as óticas da economia solidária e do desenvolvimento sustentável local. A pesquisa objetiva um entendimento sobre os fatores que influenciam no desempenho de cooperativas. Em particular, a pesquisa se concentra nos fatores político-institucionais, organizacionais e de gestão que influenciam no desempenho e resultados de cooperativas de produção. A pesquisa é um estudo de caso múltiplo baseado em duas cooperativas de produção localizadas no Estado do Pará, Brasil. O arcabouço teórico é baseado na economia solidária, no desenvolvimento sustentável local e nas transformações econômicas que podem resultar dessas perspectivas que usam o cooperativismo e a potencialidade local como uma forma de alcançar a gestão dos recursos naturais e o desenvolvimento sustentável local. Os dados obtidos nos casos selecionados mostram que o desempenho e os resultados das cooperativas são derivados de fatores internos e externos, tais como: apoio de organizações externas (organizações governamentais e não governamentais); construção de capacidade para trabalhar sob a ótica do cooperativismo; conhecimento sobre a filosofia do cooperativismo; participação em redes de relações sócio-produtivas; acesso a recursos financeiros externos; práticas produtivas integradas com a gestão dos recursos naturais; e, educação formal.

A busca pela integração com a comunidade, a gestão da informação criminal e as tecnologias da informação se colocam entre as principais razões que alavancam mudanças nas estruturas e no modo de atuação das Polícias. Buscar planejamentos operacionais com bases mais científicas é a razão de ser para mudanças de paradigmas nas forças policiais. Neste contexto, as Estatísticas Criminais desempenham um papel importantíssimo, por ser a fonte fundamental para a construção da análise criminal, além de oferecer um diagnóstico mais aproximado da realidade que envolve a criminalidade e da violência. Assim, esta dissertação tem como objetivo analisar como as estatísticas criminais produzidas pelo Sistema Estadual de Segurança Pública e Defesa Social do Estado do Pará são empregas no planejamento operacional da Polícia Militar, levando-se em conta a integração das informações e como os policiais que trabalham nos bairros do Guamá e da Terra Firme as utilizam para desenvolverem suas atividades constitucionais de policiamento ostensivo e preventivo. Para tanto, foram levantadas os seguintes temas para o desenvolvimento da discussão: os novos paradigmas do policiamento moderno, levando-se em consideração o emprego de ferramentais mais científicos para melhorar a efetividade do policiamento, dentre eles as estatísticas criminais; segundo, como são produzidas as estatísticas criminais dentro do Sistema Estadual de Segurança Pública e Defesa Social e quais banco de dados que são utilizados para produção das análises; terceiro são apresentados resultados da pesquisa de campo realizada nos policiais militares dos bairros do Guamá e da Terra Firme visando mostrar a utilização das estatísticas criminais por parte destes profissionais da segurança pública. Mostrando-se como resultado principal a necessidade de integração das informações do Sistema Estadual de Segurança Pública e Defesa Social e a necessidade de que o processo de produção de conhecimento chegue a todos os níveis da Polícia Militar, principalmente aos que trabalham na atividade operacional.

Since its emergence as a discipline, in the nineteenth century (1889), the theory and practice of Archival Science have focused on the arrangement and description of archival materials as complementary and inseparable nuclear processes that aim to classify, to order, to describe and to give access to records. These processes have their specific goals sharing one in common: the representation of archival knowledge. In the late 1980 a paradigm shift was announced in Archival Science, especially after the appearance of the new forms of document production and information technologies. The discipline was then invited to rethink its theoretical and methodological bases founded in the nineteenth century so it could handle the contemporary archival knowledge production, organization and representation. In this sense, the present paper aims to discuss, under a theoretical perspective, the archival representation, more specifically the archival description facing these changes and proposals, in order to illustrate the challenges faced by Contemporary Archival Science in a new context of production, organization and representation of archival knowledge.

Education is an essential part of the overall development of a human being. There are opportunities of knowledge production and teaching and learning in many environments, so education is not limited to the school environment. A possible field of teacher's performance takes place in the context of educational social projects, therefore, the importance of knowing and evaluating this environment. Rise to concern about how important and what the reflection of the social projects in the lives of children who often find themselves in a social risk to the margins of society and the research is justified by considering the community education as an opportunity to change lives and society itself. Thus, a qualitative study of descriptive type in a social project based on the Waldorf was developed, aiming to know how the project was carried out and verify the importance of it in a poor neighborhood of the city of Botucatu-SP

The effect of substrate (glucose) concentration on the stability and yield of a continuous fermentative process that produces hydrogen was studied. Four anaerobic fluidized bed reactors (AFBRs) were operated with a hydraulic retention time (HRT) from 1 to 8 h and an influent glucose concentration from 2 to 25 gL(-1). The reactors were inoculated with thermally pre-treated anaerobic sludge and operated at a temperature of 30 degrees C with an influent pH around 5.5 and an effluent pH of about 3.5. The AFBRs with a HRT of 2 h and a feed strength of 2, 4, and 10 gL(-1) showed satisfactory H-2 production performance, but the reactor fed with 25 gL(-1) of glucose did not. The highest hydrogen yield value was obtained in the reactor with a glucose concentration of 2 gL(-1) when it was operated at a HRT of 2 h. The maximum hydrogen production rate value was achieved in the reactor with a HRT of 1 h and a feed strength of 10 gL(-1). The AFBRs operated with glucose concentrations of 2 and 4 gL(-1) produced greater amounts of acetic and butyric acids, while AFBRs with higher glucose concentrations produced a greater amount of solvents.

Studies on the environmental consequences of stress are relevant for economic and animal welfare reasons. We recently reported that long-term heat stressors (31 +/- 1 degrees C and 36 +/- 1 degrees C for 10 h/d) applied to broiler chickens (Gallus gallus domesticus) from d 35 to 42 of life increased serum corticosterone concentrations, decreased performance variables and the macrophage oxidative burst, and produced mild, multifocal acute enteritis. Being cognizant of the relevance of acute heat stress on tropical and subtropical poultry production, we designed the current experiment to analyze, from a neuroimmune perspective, the effects of an acute heat stress (31 +/- 1 degrees C for 10 h on d 35 of life) on serum corticosterone, performance variables, intestinal histology, and peritoneal macrophage activity in chickens. We demonstrated that the acute heat stress increased serum corticosterone concentrations and mortality and decreased food intake, BW gain, and feed conversion (P < 0.05). We did not find changes in the relative weights of the spleen, thymus, and bursa of Fabricius (P > 0.05). Increases in the basal and the Staphylococcus aureus-induced macrophage oxidative bursts and a decrease in the percentage of macrophages performing phagocytosis were also observed. Finally, mild, multifocal acute enteritis, characterized by the increased presence of lymphocytes and plasmocytes within the lamina propria of the jejunum, was also observed. We found that the stress-induced hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis activation was responsible for the negative effects observed on chicken performance and immune function as well as for the changes in the intestinal mucosa. The data presented here corroborate with those presented in other studies in the field of neuroimmunomodulation and open new avenues for the improvement of broiler chicken welfare and production performance.

The number of large research networks and programmes engaging in knowledge production for development has grown over the past years. One of these programmes devoted to generating knowledge about and for development is National Centre of Competence in Research (NCCR) North–South, a cross-disciplinary, international development research network funded by the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation and the Swiss National Science Foundation. Producing relevant knowledge for development is a core goal of the programme and an important motivation for many of the participating researchers. Over the years, the researchers have made use of various spaces for exchange and instruments for co-production of knowledge by academic and non-academic development actors. In this article we explore the characteristics of co-producing and sharing knowledge in interfaces between development research, policy and NCCR North–South practice. We draw on empirical material of the NCCR North–South programme and its specific programme element of the Partnership Actions. Our goal is to make use of the concept of the interface to reflect critically about the pursued strategies and instruments applied in producing and sharing knowledge for development across boundaries.
