Movimentos sociais e educação superior: ação coletiva e protagonismo na construção do Plano Nacional de Educação (2014 - 2024)

Este trabajo analizó el protagonismo de los Movimientos Sociales en el proceso de construcción y de aprobación del Plan Nacional de Educación (PNE 2014 - 2014) con énfasis en las metas para da Educación Universitaria. Las cuestiones que problematizan la investigación son: ¿En qué contexto histórico los Movimientos Sociales asumieron el acceso a la educación universitaria com o un derecho social? ¿Qué protagonistas se involucraron en el debate sobre la política de educación universitaria en el PNE (2014 - 2024)? ¿Qué confrontaciones y antagonismos están presentes allí? ¿Cuál es el papel de los Movimientos Sociales en la Conferenc ia Nacional de Educación (CONAE) y en el Foro Nacional de Educación (FNE)? Para contestarlas, articulamos la política educacional propuesta por el PNE con las reivindicaciones históricas de los Movimientos Sociales por el acceso a la educación como un dere cho social, evidenciando el proceso de construcción de las directrices, las metas y las estrategias en los contextos políticos de articulación, proposición y reivindicación en los que se produjo la actuación de los protagonistas para la elaboración y la ap robación de esta política, tanto cuanto los antagonismos identificados. Como aporte teórico/metodológico adoptamos como objeto de estudio empírico los procesos de construcción y aprobación del mencionado PNE dentro de los espacios de participación colectiv a, en la construcción de acuerdos y proposiciones como la Conferencia Nacional de Educación realizada en 2010 en Brasilia/DF, las conferencias municipales, intermunicipales y de los Estados, el Foro Nacional de Educación (FNE) y la Comisión Especial de la Cámara Federal que lo antecedieron. Para el análisis de los documentos y de los testimonios de los protagonistas de los Movimientos Sociales seleccionados como sujetos de la investigación, los guías teóricos y los fundamentos conceptuales fueron la sociolo gía de las ausencias, la sociologías de las emergencias y el procedimiento de traducción propuesto por Boaventura Santos ( 2005; 2006; 2007; 2010), en diálogo con otros guías teóricos, como las nociones de confrontación política y oportunidad política organ izadas por Sidney Tarrow (2009). Partiendo de esa base conceptual, privilegiamos la relación de los Movimientos Sociales con la agenda de la educación brasileña cuando direccionados al PNE, analizada en base a las contribuciones de Germano (2013; 2011; 200 8; 2007; 1982), Dourado (2011; 2010; 2006); Saviani (2014; 2010; 2009; 2007; 2004,), Gohn (2012; 2010; 1997; 1995), Dagnino (1994) y Scherer - Warren (1993), entre los autores que contribuyen con el carácter transdisciplinario de esta investigación. Las cont ribuciones de estos autores propician el entendimiento de la diversidad epistemológica encontrada en las experiencias llevadas adelante en los Movimientos Sociales mediante sus actuaciones en los diversos espacios sociales e institucionales, observando las conquistas obtenidas en la política educacional contenida en el PNE 2014 - 2024, así como la comprensión de la lucha por el reconocimiento social y sus conexiones con los temas emergentes presentes en el debate de la educación nacional. De este modo, el est udio indica elementos que posibilitaron la confirmación de la tesis de que la Política de Educación Universitaria aprobada en el PNE 2014 - 2024 (Ley nº 13.005/2014) representa las resonancias de las movilizaciones y reivindicaciones de los Movimientos Socia les por el acceso a la educación como un derecho social inalienable.

Epidemiologia e caracterização molecular dos vírus Dengue circulantes no Rio Grande do Norte, 2013-2014

Dengue is an acute infectious disease, usually transmitted by Aedes aegypti mosquitoes. The etiologic agents belong to the family Flaviviridae, genus Flavivirus, and occur as four antigenically related but distinct serotypes designated DENV-1, 2, 3, and 4. In Brazil, the disease represents a national public health problem. The purpose of the present study was to describe epidemiological aspects of dengue in the State of Rio Grande do Norte, from 2013 to 2014. A total of 483 blood or serum samples, collected from January 2013 to December 2014, were studied by RT-PCR for viral detection and typing. The infection was confirmed in 36.44% (176/483) of the cases studied. This study detected the circulation of three serotypes of dengue virus in Rio Grande do Norte, DENV-1, 2, and 4. The predominant serotype in 2013-2014 was the DENV-4, representing 83.51% (81/97) and 68.35% (54/79) of the positive cases, respectively. Regarding the spatial distribution, most of the cases occurred in Natal and Caicó, with 9.28% (9/97) and 18.99% (15/79), respectively. The months with the biggest viral circulation in RN were March 2013 and May 2014. The female gender was the most affected, representing 69.07% (67/97) in 2013 and 54.43% (43/79) in 2014. The most affected age groups were 21-30 years (2013) and 11-20 years (2014) with 25.77% (25/97) and 20.25% (16/79) positive cases, respectively. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that genotype V (DENV-1) and genotype II (DENV-4) circulated in the State. Our results provide information about the dynamics of DENV in the Rio Grande do Norte, important for the development of disease control strategies.

Projeto de mobilidade urbana: estudo sobre processos de integração com habitação de interesse social nas obras do PAC da COPA 2014 em Natal/RN

The public political investments of urban mobility financed by PAC of Cup 2014 have developed discussions and questions by the civil society in Brazil expecting positive results to the urban infrastructure referring to the possible human rights violation and, specially, rights of habitation related to the removing/expropriation noticed. Natal, capital of Rio Grande do Norte, is into this context, due to the urban mobility project linking North Zone of the city to the Arena das Dunas stadium, financed by the PAC of Cup 2014, named West Structural Corridor, that crosses a field of social interest and proposes almost 400 expropriations. This research analyzes how strategies and mechanisms of integration were presented between the mobility project of West Structural Corridor and the Social Interest Habitation affected by this project. We have as hypothesis those projects financed by PAC of Cup 2014/Urban Mobility to Natal/RN present many problems related to the integration of social interest to the housing project, however the National Politics of Urban Development has planned this integration. As a result we detach 3 strategies in the elaboration process about the integration of those politics: (i) integration between municipal secretaries involved in this project; (ii) urban integration of the city; and (iii) integration of public rules or public politics integrated. For each strategy were presented the main mechanisms used to establish the integration of the project. Those mechanisms, however, in this process of establishment/implementation of the empirical research, presented many contradictions and conflicts that compose problems to the integration between the mobility project and the housing area affected.

Políticas públicas de turismo: análise do desempenho das instâncias de governança turística e seus reflexos no fomento do turismo cultural no município de Manaus/AM (2003-2014)

This study has the main objective to analyze the role of the bodies of state and local governance of tourism, aimed at tourism development process in the city of Manaus / AM , by the public practices of planning, management and development activity in the respective municipality . To the specific objectives were established four aims: 1) To characterize the process of formation of governance entities active in tourism in the city of Manaus. 2) Lift the actions planned and executed by the authorities aimed at cultural tourism in the period 2003-2014. 3) To question through the perception of the actors representing the different classes and entities of the Amazonian society, the actions planned and executed by the authorities aimed at cultural tourism in the period 2003-2014 and 4) Identify key similarities and the differences in decision-making about actions aimed at cultural tourism in Manaus. We adopted a qualitative approach, using the methodological design of descriptive and exploratory, with the help of the use of the techniques of literature search, document, with on-site data collection through interviews with semi-structured script application forms to the representatives of sectorial institutions that make up the locations of governance in tourism. In addition, the treatment of information was used content analysis technique. In response to stated objectives, it can be concluded that the creation of public arenas, through the tourism of governance has enabled incipient discussion in a democratic manner and decision-making in the area of planning and management of tourism in Manaus. It was also observed that obstacles that hinder and undermine the structures of the bodies, which reflect the joint, in the promotion and cultural tourism development in the city of Manaus.

Marketing político e mídias sociais: as estratégias utilizadas no facebook e twitter de Cássio Cunha Lima PSDB/PB, nas eleições de 2014

This dissertation aims to analyze and understand the process and practices of political marketing strategies applied to social media facebook and twitter Cássio Cunha Lima - PSDB candidate for governor of Paraíba, in the 2014 elections The work is divided into three parts . The first two chapters, both of theoretical nature, underlie the discussion about the use of the Internet as a campaign space and political marketing campaign as well as the different communication strategies and electoral marketing already presented in the literature. Following, is dedicated to a topic for the presentation of the methodology and subsequently makes the discussion of empirical data analysis. Finally, we present the conclusions. The analysis takes as its starting point the models Figueiredo et al. (1998) and Albuquerque (1999) to observe the traditional strategies and suggests the inclusion of typically recorded on the Internet strategies. The methodology used for the analysis was the qualitative and quantitative content from variables that we list different campaign strategies. In order to achieve the purpose of this research, we conducted a case study as an analytical object online campaign Cássio Cunha Lima. The case study took place from the construction of a candidate's biographical and political profile, presented and discussed in the text. This research also made use of virtual ethnography. Therefore, were monitored social media facebook and twitter that political, with the help of image capture program - Greenshot by creating pre-defined categories of analysis, for example, calendar, prestige and support, negative campaign , engagement, among others. The period chosen for monitoring the candidate's official profiles was from 24 August to 28 October 2014, because it holds the pre, during and post-election where there was greater candidate drive level and his team marketing in social media selected for analysis. The results indicate that mobilization strategy (online and offline), merged with the promotion schedule, it is predominant in the social media Cassio. They also indicate that they do not show the failure of the campaign of the candidate in 2014.

Análise das LER/DORT notificadas no Rio Grande do Norte de 2010 a 2014

The increasing prevalence of Repetitive Strain Injury / Work-Related Musculoskeletal Disorders (RSI / MSDs) has been explained by changes in the work that has been characterized by setting goals and productivity. This fact does not take into account the psycho-physiological characteristics of workers who become ill as a result of professional activities engaged in and also the adverse conditions in which his work was done. This study aimed to analyze the RSI / MSDs reported in the state of Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil, 2010-2014 compared to the profile of the population, epidemiological aspects and features of these diseases. It is a descriptive epidemiological cross-sectional study using secondary data obtained in the Notifiable Diseases Information System (SINAN) in May 2015 was used as the area covered by the Rio Grande do Norte. Data were collected regarding the grievances of work-related RSI / MSDs, assigned by the Worker's Health Reference Center (CEREST) of the State Health Department. Data were processed with the help of Microsoft Excel® 2013 and presented in tables in absolute frequency (n) and relative frequency (%). The results showed a total of 403 notifications of RSI / MSDs, where the vast majority 72% (290) was recorded in Natal. Regarding the profile of notified employees, 88.59% (357) have aged between 25 and 54 years, 62.78% (253) were female, and in relation to education, 31.51% (127) had high school complete. The most affected occupations were seamstresses (the clothing industry) with 24.97% (97), followed by masons, construction with 3.23% (13) and cashiers with 2.99% (12). About the work situation, 75.93% (306) had a formal contract, however, were sent to Communications Occupational accidents (CAT) only 67% (270) of the cases. Regarding the signs and symptoms, pain and limitation of movement were the most mentioned respectively with 98.01% (395) and 95.04% (383) of notifications. Notifications, 94.29% (380) showed exposure to repetitive movements in their workplace. The most frequent specific diagnoses were synovitis and tenosynovitis (CID F 65), with 30.02% (121) of notifications, followed by back pain (CID F 54) to 19.35% (78) and shoulder injuries (ICD M 75) with 15.88% (64). They were away from work 81.64% (329) of workers reported with RSI / MSDs. Evolution more prevalent among cases was temporary disability with 75.68% (305). It was concluded that the SINAN is a database of potential to characterize the profile of RSI / MSDs, requiring, however, an improvement in the coverage of records and data quality. In addition, this study reflects the need to implement protection strategies to workers by companies, signaling promotion, prevention and rehabilitation aimed at reducing these injuries and the improvement of occupational health indicators in Rio Grande do Norte.

O comportamento eleitoral da nova classe trabalhadora no Rio Grande do Norte 2014: ideologia, avaliação de governo e voto

This thesis investigates the voting behavior of the fractions of the new working class in Rio Grande do Norte, more specifically in the cities of Natal, Mossoró and Caicó, from the presidential election of 2014. This research examined the ideology, the evaluation of government and guidance the vote of a portion of the working classes of RN voters. In Brazil, from 2003, socio-economic change has occurred perceptibly, especially in a part of the working classes who ascended socially and switched to the "C economic class." Thus, there was this period, a significant expansion of this social stratum. The expansion of the "class C" in the past decade in Brazil raised the academic debate and in the media about the emergence of a "new middle class". Neri (2008) termed the "class C" of the "new middle class" and that will be the central part of their studies. But the debate on the "new middle class" can not be simplistic to the point of considering that social mobility, the main variable income, entered this segment of the population in the middle class, because it has different specificities of the popular classes. To understand this phenomenon, the income variable was outdated, adding the importance of ownership of the means of production, control of labor power and the symbolic values in the division of social classes resulting in three fractions of the new working class: the management positions, non-heads and small fighters. In this study, using as a complement to the sociological approach (ideologies and social classes) and the performance evaluation was identified that the new working class (heads) mainly reproduced the ideological and political positioning of the middle class, resulting in the rejection of PT governments (2003-2014) and it’s social, compensatory and redistributive policies. From what has been seen, the new working class (chiefs) approaches the ideological and political behavior of the middle class that will reflect in their electoral choices and class interests. The new working class (not heads and small fighters who voted in the situation) because of its classist and ideological interests approached the Workers' Party positively evaluating the Lula-Dilma governments (2003-2014) due to the implementation of compensatory policies, and redistributive programs government turned to the popular classes. In a counterpoint, the voters of the new working class (not heads and small fighters) who voted null, reproduced the discourse of mainstream media and the middle class about the rejection of compensatory policies, redistribution and government programs of Lula-Dilma governments, and consequently they disapproved of the government Dilma and her candidacy.

Valutazione del rischio idraulico, compreso il fallimento delle difese, mediante metodo probabilistico: rottura del Secchia del 19 gennaio 2014

Obbiettivo della tesi è sviluppare un metodo che valuti la probabilità di rottura arginale nella stesura delle mappe di pericolosità e di rischio alluvione. Ad oggi le mappe di pericolosità, redatte dagli enti regionali, considerano solo la probabilità di superamento dell’argine da parte del livello idrico (overtopping) e non il cedimento dello stesso a causa dell’instabilizzazione dovuta all’innalzamento del livello del fiume. Per la presente tesi si è scelto come caso di studio la rottura dell’argine destro del fiume Secchia del 19 gennaio 2014, presso la frazione di San Matteo, comune di Modena. Questo caso di rottura arginale è particolarmente interessante, poiché dopo l’accaduto la regione Emilia-Romagna ha predisposto una commissione tecnica per valutare le cause dell'evento. La commissione ha quindi predisposto una serie di indagini i cui dati saranno di fondamentale importanza nella presente tesi. Utilizzando, infatti, questo caso di cedimento arginale come esempio si è potuto innanzitutto ricostruire il fenomeno che ha provocato il fallimento dell’argine e ricalcolare il rischio inondazione sulle zone allagate considerando la probabilità di fallimento del sistema arginale. Per fare ciò, si sono inizialmente eseguite varie modellazioni idrauliche, sul corpo arginale, per stabilire gli spostamenti della tavola d’acqua e i valori di pressione interstiziale dei pori al variare dei tiranti idrici utilizzando il software SEEP/W. Successivamente si è utilizzato SLOPE/W allo scopo di verificate le probabilità di cedimento dell'argine in relazione alle modellazioni idrauliche effettuate con SEEP/W. Una volta ricavate le probabilità di rottura alle varie quote idriche con SLOPE/W, le si è riportate su un foglio di calcolo Excel e ricavata la curva di fragilità dell'argine e calcolato le probabilità di accadimento degli eventi alluvionali. Dopo di ciò attraverso l’utilizzo del software CA2D si sono modellate le mappe di alluvione per i vari eventi e con l’ausilio di Qgis si sono ricavate le mappe di pericolosità e calcolato il rischio sugli edifici interessati.

Il terremoto del 24 agosto 2014 a Napa (California, USA): rilievo degli effetti di sito

Il lavoro di questa tesi è frutto dell’esperienza maturata in quattro mesi di tirocinio presso l’U.S. Geological Survey di Menlo Park, da ottobre 2015 a gennaio 2016. Durante questo periodo sono state eseguite quattro campagne di raccolta dati sismici e geotecnici presso la città di Napa, ove, il 24 agosto 2014, si è verificato un terremoto di magnitudo momento pari a 6.0. Quest’area è stata interessata in precedenza da terremoti minori, il più significativo dei quali risulta essere il terremoto di Yountville del 2000 di magnitudo momento pari a 5.1. I rilievi macrosismici, effettuati immediatamente dopo il terremoto di Napa del 2014, hanno fornito una classificazione dettagliata delle strutture danneggiate nel distretto colpito. Obiettivo di questa tesi è comprendere se la distribuzione dei danni osservata sia legata anche alle caratteristiche geologiche locali (effetti di sito), oltre che alla vicinanza all’epicentro. A questo scopo sono state acquisite 63 misure sismiche passive a stazione singola e 4 prove di sismica attiva multicanale, la cui inversione congiunta ha permesso di creare mappe dei riflettori sismici principali sotto le zone interessate dal terremoto. Allo stesso tempo tali mappe, interpretate alla luce della cartografia geologica, hanno permesso di costruire sezioni geologiche e di identificare le corrispondenze tra riflettori geologici e riflettori sismici. Si è così potuto osservare che le zone più pesantemente danneggiate dal terremoto sono quelle che ricadono ove si sono misurate amplificazioni per risonanza in medio-alta frequenza (> 3 Hz) mentre scarsi danni si sono registrati nelle aree caratterizzate da roccia affiorante (e curve di amplificazione per risonanza piatte) e danni minori nelle zone contraddistinte solo da bedrock sismico profondo. La distribuzione del danno, evidenziatosi prevalentemente dove le frequenze proprie di vibrazione del suolo sono mediamente sopra 3 Hz, risulta compatibile con gli intervalli di frequenza attesi per le strutture residenziali tipiche di Napa Valley, che sono costituite da 2-3 piani fuori terra, in legno e di altezza non superiore ai 10 metri.

Analisi modellistica di un intenso ciclone di tipo tropicale nel Mediterraneo (7-8 novembre 2014): predicibilità, caratteristiche termodinamiche e confronto con osservazioni da satellite

Il lavoro di tesi riguarda lo studio dettagliato di un ciclone di tipo tropicale (tropical like cyclone, TLC) verificatosi nel Canale di Sicilia nel novembre 2014, realizzato attraverso un'analisi modellistica effettuata con i modelli BOLAM e MOLOCH (sviluppati presso il CNR-ISAC di Bologna) e il confronto con osservazioni. Nel primo capitolo è fornita una descrizione generale dei cicloni tropicali e dei TLC, indicando come la formazione di questi ultimi sia spesso il risultato dell'evoluzione di cicloni extratropicali baroclini nel Mediterraneo; sono identificate le aree geografiche con i periodi dell'anno maggiormente soggetti all'influenza di questi fenomeni, riportando un elenco dei principali TLC verificatisi nel Mediterraneo negli utlimi tre decenni e lo stato dell'arte sullo studio di questi eventi. Nel secondo capitolo sono descritte le modalità di implementazione delle simulazioni effettuate per il caso di studio e presentati i principali prodotti dell'analisi modellistica e osservazioni da satellite. Il terzo capitolo si apre con la descrizione della situazione sinottica e l'analisi osservativa con immagini Meteosat e rilevazioni radar che hanno permesso di ricostruire la traiettoria osservata del TLC. In seguito, viene dapprima fornito l'elenco completo delle simulazioni numeriche, quindi sono presentati alcuni dei più importanti risultati ottenuti, dai quali emerge che la previsione della traiettoria e intensità del TLC differisce notevolmente dalle osservazioni. Tenendo conto della bassa predicibilità che ha caratterizzato l'evento, nel quarto capitolo è descritto il metodo usato per ricostruire in maniera ottimale la traiettoria, utilizzando spezzoni da varie simulazioni, che ha permesso un confronto più realistico con i dati osservati e un'analisi dei processi fisici. Nel quinto capitolo sono riportati i principali risultati di alcuni test mirati a valutare l'impatto di aspetti legati all'implementazione delle simulazioni e ad altre forzanti fisiche.
