Cette thèse se compose de trois articles sur les politiques budgétaires et monétaires optimales. Dans le premier article, J'étudie la détermination conjointe de la politique budgétaire et monétaire optimale dans un cadre néo-keynésien avec les marchés du travail frictionnels, de la monnaie et avec distortion des taux d'imposition du revenu du travail. Dans le premier article, je trouve que lorsque le pouvoir de négociation des travailleurs est faible, la politique Ramsey-optimale appelle à un taux optimal d'inflation annuel significativement plus élevé, au-delà de 9.5%, qui est aussi très volatile, au-delà de 7.4%. Le gouvernement Ramsey utilise l'inflation pour induire des fluctuations efficaces dans les marchés du travail, malgré le fait que l'évolution des prix est coûteuse et malgré la présence de la fiscalité du travail variant dans le temps. Les résultats quantitatifs montrent clairement que le planificateur s'appuie plus fortement sur l'inflation, pas sur l'impôts, pour lisser les distorsions dans l'économie au cours du cycle économique. En effet, il ya un compromis tout à fait clair entre le taux optimal de l'inflation et sa volatilité et le taux d'impôt sur le revenu optimal et sa variabilité. Le plus faible est le degré de rigidité des prix, le plus élevé sont le taux d'inflation optimal et la volatilité de l'inflation et le plus faible sont le taux d'impôt optimal sur le revenu et la volatilité de l'impôt sur le revenu. Pour dix fois plus petit degré de rigidité des prix, le taux d'inflation optimal et sa volatilité augmentent remarquablement, plus de 58% et 10%, respectivement, et le taux d'impôt optimal sur le revenu et sa volatilité déclinent de façon spectaculaire. Ces résultats sont d'une grande importance étant donné que dans les modèles frictionnels du marché du travail sans politique budgétaire et monnaie, ou dans les Nouveaux cadres keynésien même avec un riche éventail de rigidités réelles et nominales et un minuscule degré de rigidité des prix, la stabilité des prix semble être l'objectif central de la politique monétaire optimale. En l'absence de politique budgétaire et la demande de monnaie, le taux d'inflation optimal tombe très proche de zéro, avec une volatilité environ 97 pour cent moins, compatible avec la littérature. Dans le deuxième article, je montre comment les résultats quantitatifs impliquent que le pouvoir de négociation des travailleurs et les coûts de l'aide sociale de règles monétaires sont liées négativement. Autrement dit, le plus faible est le pouvoir de négociation des travailleurs, le plus grand sont les coûts sociaux des règles de politique monétaire. Toutefois, dans un contraste saisissant par rapport à la littérature, les règles qui régissent à la production et à l'étroitesse du marché du travail entraînent des coûts de bien-être considérablement plus faible que la règle de ciblage de l'inflation. C'est en particulier le cas pour la règle qui répond à l'étroitesse du marché du travail. Les coûts de l'aide sociale aussi baisse remarquablement en augmentant la taille du coefficient de production dans les règles monétaires. Mes résultats indiquent qu'en augmentant le pouvoir de négociation du travailleur au niveau Hosios ou plus, les coûts de l'aide sociale des trois règles monétaires diminuent significativement et la réponse à la production ou à la étroitesse du marché du travail n'entraîne plus une baisse des coûts de bien-être moindre que la règle de ciblage de l'inflation, qui est en ligne avec la littérature existante. Dans le troisième article, je montre d'abord que la règle Friedman dans un modèle monétaire avec une contrainte de type cash-in-advance pour les entreprises n’est pas optimale lorsque le gouvernement pour financer ses dépenses a accès à des taxes à distorsion sur la consommation. Je soutiens donc que, la règle Friedman en présence de ces taxes à distorsion est optimale si nous supposons un modèle avec travaie raw-efficace où seule le travaie raw est soumis à la contrainte de type cash-in-advance et la fonction d'utilité est homothétique dans deux types de main-d'oeuvre et séparable dans la consommation. Lorsque la fonction de production présente des rendements constants à l'échelle, contrairement au modèle des produits de trésorerie de crédit que les prix de ces deux produits sont les mêmes, la règle Friedman est optimal même lorsque les taux de salaire sont différents. Si la fonction de production des rendements d'échelle croissant ou decroissant, pour avoir l'optimalité de la règle Friedman, les taux de salaire doivent être égales.

Os Organismos públicos encontram-se, actualmente, a desenvolver estudos a nível dos Sistemas Integrados de Gestão, motivados pela necessidade que existe em adoptar novas técnicas de Gestão capazes de responder às novas exigências de informação. Em termos gerais, os Organismos públicos encontram-se numa fase de viragem na sua actuação, em que surge a necessidade de dispor de novos sistemas de informação capazes de dar resposta às exigências da Nova Gestão Pública. É certo que a Nova Gestão Pública conduz a uma maior motivação, proporcionando uma melhoria na obtenção dos resultados e modernizando a relação entre o controlo das despesas públicas e a prestação de contas a nível dos órgãos do Estado, e onde a uniformização de critérios se apresenta como um dos principais requisitos para criar condições de implementação de uma contabilidade pública que funcione como instrumento de apoio aos utilizadores da informação e, em particular, aos Órgãos de Chefia e Direcção. Este trabalho analisa o caso do Exército Português, como exemplo de um Organismo público que aproveitou a obrigatoriedade de adesão ao novo Regime de Administração Financeira do Estado, para promover a implementação de um Sistema Integrado de Gestão capaz de responder às novas exigências de informação. Analisam-se também as estratégias de actuação e reorientação organizacional utilizadas pelo Exército Português, de modo a permitir o desenvolvimento e implementação do sistema baseado na uniformização de critérios que garanta os requisitos e as técnicas de Gestão capazes de criar condições para desenvolver uma contabilidade pública que funcione como instrumento de apoio à decisão. ABSTRACT; At present, government entities are developing studies at an Integrated Management System level, impelled by the actual need of adopting new Management techniques capable of responding to the new demands regarding Information. ln global terms, government entities are reaching a turning point in its way of acting, due to the arising need of settling new information systems which provide an answer to the demands of the New Public Management. It is assured that the New Public Management leads to a higher motivation, providing an improvement in accomplishing results and modernizing the link between the control of public expenditure and presenting accounts of State Organs. It also presents the criteria standards as one of the main requirements to create implementation conditions of a public accounting which operates as a support mean to the information users and, more specifically, to the Command and Boarding Bodies. This study analyses the Portuguese Army, an example of government entity which seized the obligation of joining the New Public Financial Management Regime to promote the implementation of an Integrated Management System capable of responding to the new information demands. The performing strategies and organizational refocus used by the Portuguese Army are also analyzed in order to allow the development and implementation of the system. It is based in the standard criteria that secure the requirements and Management techniques which enable the progress of a public accounting acting as a support resource in decision-making.

Resumo O presente trabalho foi realizado com o objetivo de apresentar propostas de estruturas de parqueamento (elétrico e mecânico), para o controlo de infestantes com galinhas. No estudo usaram-se aves da raça Preta Lusitânica para controlar infestantes nas linhas da vinha em agricultura biológica. Na elaboração das propostas de parqueamento esteve sempre presente a obrigatoriedade de promover o bem-estar das aves e avaliar os possíveis constrangimentos e perturbações causados pelas estruturas de confinamento na manifestação dos comportamentos naturais das aves. O trabalho foi dividido em seis fases. A primeira fase do trabalho foi dedicada à definição das caraterísticas das estruturas de parqueamento. A segunda fase foi dedicada à apresentação das propostas de estruturas de parqueamento das galinhas. Na terceira fase foram realizados os testes de eficácia do parqueamento das galinhas; do controlo das infestantes no que se refere à durabilidade do efeito, comparativamente ao corte mecânico e ainda uma breve análise do comportamento das galinhas. Seguiu-se a análise dos resultados dos ensaios realizados e por último elaborámos um esboço de uma estrutura de parqueamento móvel GMÓVEL para que possa ser eficaz no confinamento das galinhas nas linhas e entrelinhas de vinhas e pomares e entrelinhas das hortas em agricultura biológica. Os resultados demonstraram que a proposta com cerca elétrica não foi eficaz no confinamento. O controlo com galinhas da raça Preta Lusitânica revelou-se o mais eficaz no controlo das infestantes e de efeito mais longo no que se refere ao tempo de regeneração dessas infestantes. Palavras-Chave: controlo de infestantes; galinhas; agricultura biológica; preta lusitânica. 2 Abstract The present work was carried out in order to present proposals for parking structures (electrical and mechanical), for weed control. In the study they used chickens of the breed “Preta Lusitânica” to control weeds in the rows of vines in organic farming. During the preparation of the parking proposals, was always present the obligation to promote birds welfare and assess the possible constraints and disturbances caused by the containment structures in birds natural behavior. The work was split into six phases. The first phase of work was devoted to defining the characteristics of parking structures. The second phase was devoted to the presentation of the proposal parking structures for chickens. In the third phase, chickens parking effectiveness tests were made; the weed control with regard to the durability of effect, compared to the mechanical cutting and also a brief analysis of chickens behaviour. The analysis of the results of tests was carried out and finally we made a sketch of the mobile parking structure - GMÓVEL - for it to be effective in the confinement of chickens in the rows and between lines of vineyards and orchards and between lines of gardens in Organic Farming. The results demonstrated that the electric fence proposal was not effective in confinement. The weed control, using the chickens of the breed “Preta Lusitânica”, was way more effective. The effect is longer too, in relation to the regeneration time of these weeds. Key-words: Weed control; Chickens; Organic Farming; Preta Lusitânica.

Is fairness in process and outcome a generalizable driver of police legitimacy? In many industrialized nations, studies have demonstrated that police legitimacy is largely a function of whether citizens perceive treatment as normatively fair and respectful. Questions remain whether this model holds in less-industrialized contexts, where corruption and security challenges favor instrumental preferences for effective crime control and prevention. Support for and against the normative model of legitimacy has been found in less-industrialized countries, yet few have simultaneously compared these models across multiple industrializing countries. Using a multilevel framework and data from respondents in 27 countries in sub-Saharan Africa (n~43,000), I find evidence for the presence of both instrumental and normative influences in shaping the perceptions of police legitimacy. More importantly, the internal consistency of legitimacy (defined as obligation to obey, moral alignment, and perceived legality of the police) varies considerably from country to country, suggesting that relationships between legality, morality, and obligation operate differently across contexts. Results are robust to a number of different modeling assumptions and alternative explanations. Overall, the results indicate that both fairness and effectiveness matter, not in all places, and in some cases contrary to theoretical expectations.

La presente Tesis Doctoral es una contribución al conocimiento y la investigación sobre el uso de áridos reciclados y cenizas de fondo procedentes de la combustión de biomasa para su uso en ingeniería civil. El interés en el uso de áridos reciclados procedentes de residuos de construcción y demolición (RCD) están en continuo crecimiento debido a su potencial frente a diversos usos, entre ellos como material tratado con cemento para capas estructurales de carretera. Por otro lado, la producción de energía eléctrica a partir de centrales termoeléctricas que emplean biomasa como combustible, origina principalmente dos residuos: Cenizas de fondo (CF) formadas por el material total o parcialmente quemado y cenizas volantes (CV), partículas arrastradas por la corriente de gases al exterior de la cámara de combustión. En el desarrollo de este trabajo, se evaluó en una primera etapa, el comportamiento físico, químico y mecánico de diferentes mezclas de materiales granulares reciclados tratados con cemento, con diferentes contenidos de sulfato y de esta manera poder establecer protocolos de aplicación en la fabricación de suelocemento. Posteriormente, se analizo la viabilidad técnica de las cenizas de fondo de biomasa de varias plantas de energía andaluzas y de esta manera, evaluar su potencial uso en obras de infraestructura civil. Se determinó que las cenizas de fondo biomasa poseen propiedades aceptables para ser utilizados como un material de relleno en el núcleo de terraplenes de carreteras de más de 5 m en altura sin medidas de precaución adicionales. Por último, se estudio la posibilidad de incorporar, en proporciones determinadas, cenizas de fondo de biomasa en diferentes mezclas con árido natural y árido reciclado para su uso en ingeniería civil, concretamente como suelocemento para base y subbase de carreteras. El análisis de las propiedades mecánicas fue muy positivo. Las características físicas, químicas y mecánicas han sido estudiadas de acuerdo a la normativa vigente, y los parámetros han sido comparados con las especificaciones técnicas impuestas por la regulación española. La concepción del residuo como recurso para incorporarlo de nuevo al sistema productivo es un reto clave y una obligación y la principal motivación para el desarrollo de la presente Tesis Doctoral. Por ello, la correcta gestión de estos subproductos industriales, es esencial para evitar los impactos negativos sobre los ecosistemas, la biodiversidad y la salud humana, sin olvidar el beneficio económico que supone esta práctica.

Nos últimos anos, a Gestão de Informação e do Conhecimento (GIC) tem despertado um interesse cada vez maior por parte da comunidade científica e de prestigiadas organizações empresariais e governamentais. A incorporação organizacional desta disciplina possibilitou a correção de lacunas de informação e de conhecimento, contribuindo eficazmente para a superioridade de informação. Desta maneira, este estudo tem por objetivo determinar as opções que permitirão ao Exército Português maximizar a sua eficácia no âmbito da GIC. Posto isto, analisar-se-á primeiramente o impacto da “era da informação” na atual gestão organizacional. Em seguida, proceder-se-á à avaliação do modelo de GIC que melhor servirá uma organização tipo Exército Português, verificando-se, numa fase final, quais os aspetos que caracterizam o atual modelo em vigor no Exército e qual o seu impacto na sua gestão estratégica. Por último, conclui-se com o presente estudo que se encontra em curso uma transformação ao nível de toda a cultura organizacional do Exército, uma vez que a mesma passa a centralizar o seu processo de decisão em rede. Para isso, torna-se essencial a implementação eficaz da GIC, o que é apenas é praticável com a definição de uma estratégia e de um plano de ação para a sua eficaz materialização. Abstract: The Information and Knowledge Management (IKM) is beginning to awaken a growing interest in the academic world as well as in large organizations globally. The implementation of this type of capability allows bridging the information and knowledge gaps contributing to achieve in organizational terms the information superiority. This study focuses on determining the options that will allow the Portuguese Army in order to maximize its effectiveness within the IKM. To achieve this purpose, it begins by analyzing how the "information age" influences the management of organizations. Next, we evaluate which model of IKM that could best serve an organization like the Portuguese Army and finally we analyze which aspects characterizing the current IKM model in the Army and its impact on its Strategic Management. We conclude that the Army is crossing a transformation of the whole organizational culture passing this to centralize its decision process through the network changing the whole paradigm of sharing and obligation to share. For this, it is essential to the implementation of the IKM capacity and this is only possible with the definition of a strategy and action plan for the implementation of this strategy.

Unintended effects are well known to economists and sociologists and their consequences may be devastating. The main objective of this article is to formulate a mathematical theorem, based on Gödel's famous incompleteness theorem, in which it is shown, that from the moment deontical modalities (prohibition, obligation, permission, and faculty) are introduced into the social system, responses are allowed by the system that are not produced, however, prohibited responses or unintended effects may occur.

The purpose of this paper is to explore through narrative accounts one family's expérience of critical care, after the admission of a family member to an Intensive Care Unit (ICU) and their subséquent death five weeks later. Numerous studies support the need for effective communication and clear information to be given to the family. In this instance it was évident from their stories that there were numerous barriers to communication, including language and a lack of insight into the needs of the family. Many families do not understand the complexities of nursing care in an ICU so lack of communication by nursing staff was identified as uncaring behavior and encounters. Facilitating a family's proximity to a dying patient and encouraging them to participate in care helps to maintain some sensé of personal control. Despite a commitment to involving family members in care, which was enshrined in the Unit Philosophy, relatives were banished to the waiting room for hours. They experienced feelings of powerlessness and helplessness as they waited with other relatives for news following investigations or until 'the doctor had completed his rounds'. Explanations of "we must make 'the patient' comfortable" was no consolation for those who wished to be involved in care. The words "I'il call you when we are ready" became a mantra to the forgotten families who waited patiently for those with power to admit them to the ICU. Implications are this family felt they were left alone to cope with the traumatic expériences leading up to and surrounding the death. They felt mainly supported by the priest, who not only administered the last rites but provided spiritual support to the family and dealt sensitively with many issues. Paternalism in décision making when there is a moral obligation to ensure that discussions on end of life dilemmas are an inclusive process with families, doctors, nurses was not understood, therefore it caused conflict within the family over EOL décision making. The family felt that the opportunity to share expériences through telling and retelling their stories would enable them to reconfigure the past and create purpose in the future.

With the increasing of demand for natural gas and the consequent growth of the pipeline networks, besides the importance of transport and transfer of oil products by pipeline, and when it comes to product quality and integrity of the pipeline there is an important role regarding to the monitoring internal corrosion of the pipe. This study aims to assess corrosion in three pipeline that operate with different products, using gravimetric techniques and electrical resistance. Chemical analysis of residues originated in the pipeline helps to identify the mechanism corrosive process. The internal monitoring of the corrosion in the pipelines was carried out between 2009 and 2010 using coupon weight loss and electrical resistance probe. Physico-chemical techniques of diffraction and fluorescence X-rays were used to characterize the products of corrosion of the pipelines. The corrosion rate by weight loss was analyzed for every pipeline, only those ones that has revealed corrosive attack were analyzed located corrosion rate. The corrosion potential was classified as low to pipeline gas and ranged from low to severe for oil pipelines and the pipeline derivatives. Corrosion products were identified as iron carbonate, iron oxide and iron sulfide

Au cours des vingt dernières années, l’anesthésie régionale est devenue, autant en médecine vétérinaire qu’humaine, un outil essentiel à l’élaboration de protocoles analgésiques péri-opératoires. Parmi l’éventail de techniques mises au point en anesthésie canine, le bloc paravertébral du plexus vertébral (PBPB) et sa version modifiée sont d’un grand intérêt pour toute procédure du membre thoracique, dans sa portion proximale. Toutefois, l’essentiel des données publiées à ce jour provient d’études colorimétriques, sans évaluation clinique, et peu d’information est disponible sur les techniques de localisation nerveuse envisageables à ce site. Notre étude visait à décrire une approche échoguidée du PBPB modifié, puis à caractériser ses paramètres pharmacocinétiques et pharmacodynamiques après administration de lidocaïne (LI) ou lidocaïne adrénalinée (LA). Huit chiens ont été inclus dans un protocole prospectif, randomisé, en aveugle et croisé, réparti sur trois périodes. L’impact pharmacodynamique du bloc effectué avec LI ou LA a été évalué régulièrement pour 180 min suivant son exécution. Le traitement à l’adrénaline n’a pas démontré d’impact significatif (P = 0,845) sur la durée du bloc sensitif, tel qu’évalué par un stimulus douloureux mécanique appliqué aux dermatomes ciblés. À l’opposé, l’atteinte proprioceptive évaluée par la démarche a été trouvée prolongée (P = 0,027) et le bloc moteur mesuré par le pic de force verticale (PVF) au trot sur la plaque de force s’est avéré plus marqué (PVF réduit; P = 0,007) sous LA. À l’arrêt comme au trot, le nadir de la courbe PVF-temps a été trouvé retardé (P < 0,005) et la pente ascendante de retour aux valeurs normales adoucie (P = 0,005). Parallèlement aux évaluations cliniques, des échantillons plasmatiques ont été collectés régulièrement afin de quantifier et décrire le devenir pharmacocinétique de la lidocaïne. Parmi les trois élaborés, un modèle bi-compartimental doté d’une double absorption asynchrone d’ordre zéro a finalement été sélectionné et appliqué aux données expérimentales. Sous LA, la Cmax a été trouvée significativement diminuée (P < 0,001), les phases d’absorption prolongées [P < 0,020 (Dur1) et P < 0,001 (Dur2)] et leurs constantes réduites [P = 0,046(k01) et P < 0,001 (k02)], le tout en concordance avec les effets proprioceptifs et moteurs rapportés. Bien que l’extrapolation du dosage soit maintenant théoriquement envisageable à partir du modèle mis en lumière ici, des études supplémentaires sont encore nécessaires afin d’établir un protocole de PBPB d’intérêt clinique. L’analyse sur plaque de force pourrait alors devenir un outil de choix pour évaluer l’efficacité du bloc dans un cadre expérimental.
