Avaliação da participação e confiabilidade da população em relação à campanha de vacinação anual contra a raiva de cães e gatos no município de Botucatu, São Paulo, Brasil

The annual vaccination campaign against rabies is the most effective prevention procedure for this disease in dogs and cats and hence for human protection also. However, in 2010 and 2011, this activity was interrupted in Brazil due to the occurrence of adverse events associated with vaccination. Even though cases of canine rabies have been decreasing in the last two decades, vigilance must be strengthened in order to maintain pet owners trust in the vaccines provided in public services. This study aimed to determine pet owners participation in the annual vaccination campaign carried out in Botucatu. During March and April 2012, the period before the 42nd campaign, 312 pet owners, dogs and cats, were interviewed. The homes were randomly drawn in blocks from different sectors of the city; all houses on the same block over the 120 km² of urban area participated in the sampling process. Statistical analysis was performed descriptively. The results showed that the owners main motivation to vaccinate their pets during the campaigns is rabies prevention (36%), followed by the proximity of the vaccination station to the house (20.7%), zero cost (10.9%), and the combination of all three factors (16.1%). When asked if they would take their animals back to be vaccinated in another campaign, 60.1% answered yes, 13.5% would go to a private clinic, 2.2% would not take because they do not trust the vaccine and 1.6% had not decided yet. We conclude that the respondents have realized how dangerous Rabies is, because even after the break period, they still utilized the vaccination campaign demonstrating confidence in its effectiveness, while knowing the campaign goals facilitates understanding and participation.

O que revelam os estudos realizados no Brasil sobre política de dividendos?

O presente artigo consiste na revisão da literatura sobre política de dividendos no Brasil, com foco nos estudos empíricos realizados no período de 1990 até 2010, que tenham sido objeto de publicação nos principais periódicos nacionais de Administração, Contabilidade e Finanças ou disponíveis em anais dos principais congressos da matéria. A amostra analisada foi composta de 39 trabalhos com variadas metodologias e períodos. Com inspiração no modelo de Harris e Raviv (1991), buscou-se agrupar os trabalhos de acordo com o tipo de modelo, tendo sido identificadas cinco categorias predominantes. Algumas tendências puderam ser percebidas, tais como: relevância da política de dividendos no mercado brasileiro; confirmação da existência de problemas de agência; resultados conflitantes quanto à hipótese da clientela; sinalização e influência dos tributos na definição da política de dividendos; resultados não conflitantes quanto às determinantes da política de dividendos.

Arquitetura da participação e controles democráticos no Brasil e no México

A multiplicação de experiências participativas visando ampliar o controle social sobre políticas e políticos tornou-se fenômeno relevante no Brasil e mundo afora. Neste artigo é apresentado um quadro analítico útil à comparação da diversidade da inovação democrática enquanto arquitetura da participação orientada para o controle social. Mediante a aplicação desse quadro, examinamos a configuração de duas arquiteturas contrastantes, originárias de dois contextos nacionais distintos: México e Brasil.

Estanislao Zeballos y la política exterior argentina con Brasil y Chile

Estanislao Zeballos creó un denso corpus teórico sobre las relaciones de la Argentina con sus vecinos, especialmente con Brasil y Chile. A lo largo del siglo XX, la élite intelectual rioplatense ha mantenido en vigencia el pensamiento de Zeballos, al cual se lo ha considerado una suerte de paradigma del patriota. El presente artículo examina críticamente el pensamiento de Zeballos. Detecta que, fuertemente marcadas por el positivismo y el darwinismo social, sus ideas se deslizaron hacia posiciones xenófobas y racistas, sobre todo hacia los dos países citados. Por tal motivo, el canciller generó conflictos de límites que antes no existían, y promovió conceptos históricamente inexactos sobre la naturaleza de las relaciones internacionales en el Cono Sur.
