Avaliação das condicionalidades em saúde do Programa Bolsa Família

The programs of conditional cash transfer are widespread in developing countries in Latin America with emphasis on Brazil as a new paradigm in social p olicies for poverty eradication . Consist of transferring monetary funds from the government directly to poor families by fulfilling the condition alities on education and health . In health, even wi th variations between countries , conditionality targeting public pregnant women and children with a view to improving health indic ators maternoinfantil as growth , infant mortality and prenatal care. The objectives of this study are to compare the transfer progr am conditional Brazilian income , the Family and similar programs in Latin A merica in relation to it s effects on growth in children , and to evaluate the effect of Bolsa Família in the prevalence of use of services ( conditionalities ) of prenatal care in Brazilian health services whose teams joined the Programa de Acesso e Melhoria da Qualidade da Atenção Básica (PMAQ - AB) . For the first objective a systematic review , we selec ted ten articles between 1007 ( one thousand and seven ) found in the databases Embase , PubMed, Scopus , Scielo and Lilacs databases was performed . Articles are ob servational epidemiological studies of transverse descriptive and analytical types of cohort and case - co ntrol. For the second objective, for it is a prevalence study , a statistical analysis using Poisson regression with robust variance was performed to i nvestigate how the prevalence of compliance with conditionalities on health was influenced b y various explanatory variables . Ratios , crude and adjusted prevalence , with their respective confidence i ntervals of 95 % were estimated . The family joined the sch olarship program was considered as the main expo sure variable . Confounding variables were: maternal age , race / color, paid employment , marital status and region of residence . In d ata analysis software R 3.0.1 (RDevelopment Core Team 2013 ) was used . Rega rding the comparison of the Bolsa Família with other programs in Latin America , the review found similar results regarding the positive effect of income transfer in the nutritional status o f beneficiary children programs , and these effects are more evident in children under two years old and belonging to familie s of lower socioeconomic status . For the prevalence of conditionalities entres different groups of users of the Bolsa Família and nonusers results showed no statistically significant difference betwe en respondents (with children under two years ) registered and not registered in PBF on issues relating to: me et at least six prenatal visits , meet and participate in health education activities . It follows from side to increase minimum income for families in extreme poverty showed positive impact on children's health in Brazil and Latin America. The o ther is not confirmed in Brazil , an increase in conditionality expressed in use of primary care by the user s of the Bolsa Família services.

Desindustrialização no Brasil: teorias e evidências para o debate

This study aims to contribute with evidence to reinforce or not the thesis of a possible deindustrialization of the Brazilian economy, with emphasis on period after 1995. The debate began in the late 80s, however, recently the industry deceleration gained strength in discussions academic. Between the main theses in this debate is the new-development that believes in precocious deindustrialization caused primarily by overvaluation exchange rate. However, part of heterodoxy believes the industry downturn is more related to the rate of investment than the exchange rate. Nevertheless, according to the orthodox thesis the loss of competitiveness due to the high cost of production may have caused the de-industrialization in Brazil. On the other hand, part of Orthodoxy does not believe that the country is deindustrializing it, but is occurring convergence of Brazilian industry the world average. Thus, in an attempt to shed light on this debate, this study intends to identify the reasons for the deceleration of the Brazilian industry, emphasizing aspects underexplored in the literature and define whether or not the country suffers a process of deindustrialization. When analyzing various indicators, especially the quantum level we find strong indications that the deceleration of the Brazilian industry can be characterized as a deindustrialization, though still insufficient to qualify as precocious, given the loss of share in physical production in total output and the share of primary goods in the export basket

A dinâmica da taxa de câmbio no Brasil face às operações swap (2002-2015)

This dissertation investigates, based on the Post-Keynesian theory and on its concept of monetary economy of production, the exchange rate behavior of the Brazilian Real in the presence of Brazilian Central Bank's interventions by means of the so-called swap transactions over 2002-2015. Initially, the work analyzes the essential properties of an open monetary economy of production and, thereafter, it presents the basic propositions of the Post-Keynesian view on the exchange rate determination, highlighting the properties of foreign exchange markets and the peculiarities of the Brazilian position into the international monetary and financial system. The research, thereby, accounts for the various segments of the Brazilian foreign exchange market. To accomplish its purpose, we first do a literature review of the Post-Keynesian literature about the topic. Then, we undertake empirical exams of the exchange rate determination using two statistical methods. On the one hand, to measure the volatility of exchange rate, we estimate Auto-regressive Conditional Heteroscedastic (ARCH) and Generalized Auto-regressive Conditional Heteroscedastic (GARCH) models. On the other hand, to measure the variance of the exchange rate in relation to real, financial variables, and the swaps, we estimate a Vector Auto-regression (VAR) model. Both experiments are performed for the nominal and real effective exchange rates. The results show that the swaps respond to exchange rate movements, trying to offset its volatility. This reveals that the exchange rate is, at least in a certain magnitude, sensitive to swaps transactions conducted by the Central Bank. In addition, another empirical result is that the real effective exchange rate responds more to the swaps auctions than the nominal rate.

O impacto das oscilações da taxa de câmbio na rendibilidade das empresas e do mercado

O primeiro objetivo deste trabalho é analisar o impacto das oscilações da taxa de câmbio na rendibilidade das empresas e do mercado. O segundo consiste em saber se a rendibilidade das empresas e do mercado reage assimetricamente às valorizações e desvalorizações da moeda. Por forma a concretizar os objetivos do trabalho utilizamos uma amostra constituída por 1 351 empresas de três setores (industrial, materiais básicos e bens de consumo) pertencentes a seis mercados, durante os anos de 2002 a 2012. Os mercados que fazem parte da amostra são os seguintes: África do Sul, Brasil, Canadá, China, Japão, México e Europa. O trabalho também pretende analisar se os resultados divergem em função do tipo de mercado: desenvolvido (Canadá, China, Japão e Europa) ou emergente (a África do Sul, Brasil e México). Os resultados do estudo permitem constatar que valorizações do dólar têm um efeito negativo na rendibilidade das empresas para a amostra total. A rendibilidade de mercado emergente é influenciada negativamente por valorizações do dólar. No que diz respeito à hipótese que estuda se a rendibilidade das ações das empresas reage assimetricamente às valorizações e desvalorizações da moeda, verificamos que as valorizações da moeda têm um impacto assimétrico na rendibilidade das ações das empresas. Na rendibilidade dos mercados, verificamos que a rendibilidade de mercado local reage negativamente a valorizações do dólar e a rendibilidade do mercado mundial apresenta uma influência positiva na rendibilidade dos mercados emergentes.

Parcerias municipais com o terceiro setor: o caso do conselho municipal dos direitos da criança e do adolescente de Natal

The relationship between the State and the non-governmental organizations (NGOs) needs to be analyzed and debated by the objective to extinguish or to reduce the existent failures in this partnership in order that the whole society may benefit from it. To understand how the partnership between the public and NGOs work is fundamental. The present study searches to contribute to a better understanding of this matter. With this aim, the research focused the partnership formed between Natal Child and Adolescent Council (COMDICA) and NGOs which were selected by public notice in 2007. Theoretical references were based on the Continuum of Collaboration proposed by Austin (2001) that serves to differentiate the degree and the mode of interaction between the two organizations. It was observed that in some points there is a lack in the interaction between COMDICA and the NGOs. The frequent change of the government counselors makes difficult a more intense involvement and partnership awareness with the NGOs. The NGOs members need to be more involved with the activities of COMDICA and search for a larger participation in the assemblies, on the discussions and on the intrinsic council actions. The relationship must also be rethought, since that the partnership must not be limited to financial resources support. The channels of communication must be improved and become more frequent. The evaluation and monitoring of social projects are poor and own methodologies need to be elaborated. Therefore, it is necessary to make some adjustments in this relationship involving not only the partnerships made by the selected ONGs, but also all those who assist the child and the adolescent. A closer relation makes possible a greater effectiveness of the public policies on one side and on the other side improves the performance of the COMDICA and the NGOs

Controle social e políticas públicas: contribuições para aprimorar o controle social do programa nacional de alimentação escolar

The National School Feeding Programme (PNAE) is a public policy in Brazil for over 60 years and represents one of the most important programs of feeding and nutrition in the world. The role of family farming as a source of employment in rural areas, food provider and for ensuring much of the Brazil’s food security is constantly present at the government's and social movement’s agendas. Law 11.947 of 2009 marked its integration in the food supply for the National School Feeding Programme. Article 14 of aforementioned law highlights that a minimum of 30% (thirty percent) of the funds transferred by the National Development Fund Education (FNDE) to the Programme must be used for the purchase of food directly from family farmers or their organizations. The national school feeding policy under the responsibility of the FNDE and is subjected to agencies of internal control, such as the General Controllership of the Union (CGU), of external control, such as the Audit Courts of the Union and the of the states, and to the social control of the school feeding councils. Those funds are transferred to the implementing agencies, which are the education offices of the states, municipalities and of the Federal District. These entities must annually present their accountings to the School Feeding Councils, which analyze them and then issue a conclusive report to the FNDE, approving with or without reservations, or rejecting them. In this sense, this research aims to propose parameters that should contribute to the improvement of the social control over purchases from family farming for the National School Feeding Programme. The study was conducted by non parametric sampling alongside the managers of the implementing entities, school feeding councils and Family Farming Organizations all across Brazil, from the databases provided by FNDE and by the National Union of Cooperatives of Family Agriculture and Solidarity Economy (Unicafes). The study points out that the legal framework of PNAE seeks to ensure the participation of family farming in the food supply for the Programme, despite allowing the executing agencies to justify the non-compliance of the minimum required in a number of ways. The survey also signalizes that the school feeding councils follow the implementation of the Programme very shyly, and points out that there is room to expand and enhance the participation of these councils and organizations of family farming in the execution of PNAE. Its effectiveness requires a constant and effective process of training of the agents involved in the Programme.

Geração e gerenciamento de resíduos sólidos: incentivos econômicos para cumprimento da lei n° 12.305/10

O presente estudo teve por objetivo estimar um percentual do quanto seria necessário aumentar o repasse do ICMS, para se tornar um incentivo verde, motivando os governos municipais a cumprirem a lei n° 12.305/101 (que instituiu a Política Nacional de Resíduos Sólidos - PNRS), abordando em âmbito nacional (macrorregiões), com breve comparativo entre outros países, referenciando também o COREDE Sul e os municípios que o compõem (um a um), no que tange o tratamento desses resíduos sólidos no Brasil, mostrando entre eles a disposição desses dejetos e alguns incentivos econômicos, com sugestão de política pública fiscal. A metodológica utilizada tem inspiração na escola austríaca que emprega uma mistura de procedimentos, sendo assim, este trabalho utilizou-se do método dedutivo exploratório e para a valoração do serviço do tratamento dos resíduos utilizou-se o Método de Valoração Contingente (MVC), que é um método econômico utilizado para valorar o meio ambiente, que envolve perguntar diretamente as pessoas (pesquisa), o quanto estariam dispostas a pagar ou a receber por serviços ambientais específicos.

L’inconscient dans le texte littéraire?

Quand l’inconscient passe la frontière du conscient, il n’est plus inconscient; il devient “consciencialisable”, il n’est donc plus ce qu’il avait été jusquelà: il n’est plus luimême. Comment pourrionsnous le percevoir à ce momentlà, comme quelque chose d’inconscient ou bien même en parler scientifiquement? Et comment pourrions nous parler de l’inconscient en tant qu’élément appartenant à la littérature, ou en en tant qu’élément constitutif de celleci ou même comme oeuvre littéraire, quand, dans un premier temps, nous percevons le texte littéraire comme une simple disposition de lettres, et non comme un être humain, dont nous pourrions expliquer les actes par des motivations inconscientes? Quel élément traverse la limite de l’inconscient vers le conscient, puis traverse la frontière entre l’homme et le texte et repasse du texte à l’homme? Qu’est ce que cela signifiait autrefois, qu’est ce que cela signifie à l’heure actuelle? Se produitil vraiment quelque chose? Y atil vraiment “quelque chose” qui traverse la frontière menant au texte? Qu’est ce qui nous donne donc le droit, au nom de la “science”, de formuler des suppositions psychanalytiques sur l’inconscient d’un texte.
