Um estudo exploratório sobre as práticas socio-ambientais de empresas multinacionales no setor de mineração do Peru

O presente trabalho tem por objetivo conhecer as práticas socio-ambientais no setor de mineração do Peru. Setor que esta dominada pela presença de empresas transnacionais que se encontram com duas realidades de regulamentação de meio ambientais muito discordantes, a primeira, as normas corporativas onde se encontra a matriz e, a segunda, a regulamentação do país onde esta a subsidiaria, neste caso o Peru. Com a internacionalização do tema socio-ambiental, se dá a devida importância ao tema da Responsabilidade Social Corporativa, já que as empresas transnacionais estão pressionadas a manter uma boa imagem internacional, que pode ser vulnerável a criticas negativas em relação à heterogeneidade, já que suas praticas socio-ambientais têm que ser as mesmas em qualquer parte do mundo. Na presente dissertação se enfatiza as praticas socio-ambientais das empresas com relação às comunidades circundantes, sendo um tema pouco difundido na mineração peruana. As desconformidades das comunidades frente aos projetos de mineração constituem o maior problema social atual, gerando a paralisação das atividades nesse setor. O Peru não tem Ministério do Meio Ambiente, embora exista um Conselho Nacional do Meio Ambiente (CONAM) que é um organismo público descentralizado e, esta aderido ao âmbito da Presidência do Conselho de Ministros. Nesta investigação se analisa a função do Ministério de Energia e Minas do Peru, já que ele é um ente que incentiva a promoção de investimento privada no setor de energia e minas e, por outro lado, mediante a Direção Geral de Assuntos Ambientais do Ministério de Energia e Minas aplica a guia de gestão ambiental emitidas pelo CONAM. Finalmente, no estudo de caso, são analisadas duas empresas transnacionais maiores do setor de mineração peruano, aplicando entrevistas e um questionário com perguntas abertas para poder conhecer suas praticas socio-ambientais. Desenvolve-se uma análise dos resultados obtidos no estudo de caso, utilizando o referencial teórico para situar a realidade peruana, numa realidade internacional. Pelos dados obtidos, podemos interpretar que as empresas estudadas não se encaixam totalmente nos parâmetros internacionais do auto-regulamentação. Observamos a falta de políticas públicas sócio-ambiental, é por esse motivo, a conclusão desta investigação propõe a criação e aplicação de políticas públicas a dois problemas socio-ambientais, o primeiro, a geração de emprego indireto e a segunda, a recuperação dos passivos ambientais.

Letramento no trânsito: eventos e práticas na formação de condutores de veículos

In the contemporary society, the language is presented in all social spaces and assumes many different purposes in order to meet the needs that emerge from each of these sphere. In traffic, this reality is not different. To guide vehicles, it is necessary to know, by means of reading artifacts, what the legislation establishes in what concerns the way to act in this domain. Thus, this works aims at describing the practices of literacy held in events of driver trainings and know the expectations generated by drivers/learners from this training. In theoretical terms, it anchors in Literacy Studies, comprehended here as social practices (BARTON; HAMILTON, 1998; KLEIMAN, 1995, 2008; MORTATTI, 2004; STREET, 1984; OLIVEIRA, 2008, 2010; ROJO, 2009; PAZ, 2008). Genre Theory (BRONCKART, 2004, 1999; OLIVEIRA, 2010) and in your multimodal instance (KRESS; VAN LEEUWEN, 1996; DIONÍSIO, 2006). In terms of methodology, it follows the bias of qualitative research, because of its ethnographic nature (BOGDAN; BIKLEN, 1994; MINAYO, 2010; CANÇADO, 1994; CHIZZOTTI, 2005). The research corpus was generated by reading the Brazilian Traffic Code, by observing the literacy events held in Drivers Training Centers of Natal, analysis of course books used in these events, plus questionnaires with open and closed questions and semistructured interviews. The collaborators are constituted of drivers in training, and instructors who work in this field. The analyses show significant contributions regarding the placement more committed of future drivers with the welfare and safety of those who use the public roads, from the practice or reading done during the traffic training. The contribution of this work lies in the possibility to expand the discussion about the language practice uses regarding the training for the traffic, more specifically, the training of drivers of vehicles

Cidade e identidade: discursividades imagético-espaciais e a construção da identidade espacial do Recife, Veneza Brasileira

This treatise analyzes the identitary setting called Veneza Brasileira (Brazilian Venice) which is subscribed to the discoursive materialization related to the imagetic setting (literary and mediatic) produced about the city of Recife. The main investigation of this research is to examine the way how the identitary setting called Veneza Brasileira has been constructed in the imagetic setting practices about the city of Recife in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. This study is subscribed to the Applied Linguistics and considers the theoretical perspectives that come from the Cultural Studies which investigation basis is focused on authors such as: Hall (2006); Bauman (1999; 2001;2005); Silva (2000); and Castells (2000) related to the discussion over identity, as well as the discussion over Urban Studies presented in Santos (1997; 1999); Ferrara (1998); and Pesavento (2001). Moreover it is also based on the theoretical basis found in Foucault (2004; 2006; 2007). Furthermore theoretical-methodological approaches rely on the French Discourse Analysis (DA) found in Orlandi (2001); Gregolin (2007); and Courtine (2006). On being so, this treatise aims to: analyze the meaning effects over the production of the identitary setting, especially the so-called Veneza Brasileira, in the imagetic setting discoursive practices (Poems, Post Cards and Touristic Guides) which are produced over the urban setting of the city of Recife. This research is characterized by being qualitative and interpretative and the theoretical analytical approaches contributed to the reading of both poetic and iconic images presented in the excerpts of poems from the nineteenth century and early twentieth century in: Manuel Bandeira s poems, Carlos Pena Filho s poems, and João Cabral de Melo Neto s poems which were produced in the early and late twentieth century. Moreover, this study observed some photographic images in Post Cards and Touristic Guides related to the visiting of historical sites in Recife. One could conclude that the imagetic setting discourse about Recife produced different identitary effects over the so-called Veneza Brasileira along these three centuries: in the nineteenth century, the poetry constructed the utopia city along with the meaning effect of identitary unit; as for the twentieth century, one observed an oscillation between a utopia/heteroutopia city meaning effect of both united and fragmented identity, the latter one is prevalent. As for the twenty-first century, the media reconstructed over again the utopia city, and consequently, produced meaning effect of identitary unit. These same meaning effects of identity either corroborate or contradict to/with the concepts of the postmodernism over identity along these three centuries. In other words, considering the imagetic setting, this oscillation occurs in the proportion of one finds an (ex) inclusion of social agents that construct these same identities.

Apresentação

As imagens e o jornalismo. As imagens, na sua materialidade histórica, nas suas confi- gurações diversas, na sua heterogenia conceptual, nos seus usos e práticas. O jornalismo, com as suas práticas, os seus valores, os seus meios de difusão, os seus produtos, os seus domínios de responsabilidade, a sua herança histórica. As discussões mais ou menos formais, na academia ou fora dela, em torno das diferentes possibilidades de interseção destes dois domínios de organização da nossa experiência coletiva têm ganho alguma visibilidade, alimentadas por uma omnipresença crescente do visual, em virtude de um contexto tecnológico hipermediado que o requisita como uma das vias preferenciais para a veiculação de conteúdos.

Territórios e sentidos: espaço, cultura, subjetividade e cuidado na atenção psicossocial

In the light of the collective health and of the mental health, the concept of territory is present in multiple dimensions and meanings. It appears in documents that express principles and guidelines of the health policies and in the planning of local actions, and it is a central element to organize the care network in psychosocial attentiveness. This present essay aims to discuss the concept of territory and its uses in the practices of psychosocial care, developing a dialogue with the geographer Milton Santos and the philosophers Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari who, from different fields and perspectives, work with this concept. This dialogue made it possible to think the territory in its complexity, as space, process and composition, in order to optimize the relationship between service, culture, production of care and production of subjectivity.

O papel do centro histórico na cidade: um estudo comparativo entre João Pessoa e Tours

In the contemporary scene, it is conspicuous that the patrimony and the culture have assumed privileged positions in urban policies, presenting themselves as instruments for transforming and shaping the aspect of cities. In the plot line of such glowing trend, the competitiveness among cities has drawn more attention, for at present such urban centers garner an image that makes them suitable for economic purposes, thus more likely to attract investments and tourists. In the spotlight of such stage, the cities become notable actors, directed by policies of urban rehabilitation. In such plot line, the historical centers gain more visibility and are converted into venues for staging the spectacle of everyday life. Overlapped in this process of producing images, the phenomenon of gentrification recrudesces. Thus, the discussion threaded about the patrimony gains strength in urban studies, keeping a close relationship with the ways of perceiving the cities nowadays. This work is based on the principle that the historical centers are engendered and fond by urban policies, working as transforming instruments of city perceptions and living. In that sense, the way how the historic center and the valuation assessed to old buildings are comprehended by the inhabitants is largely guided by urban policies that outline a sellable image of the city. In the light of such elaborations, an ethnographic research was made with focus on two different contexts, namely: the historic centers of João Pessoa (Brazil) and Tours (France). It was done in a comparative perspective, for it allows us to trace the main specificities of each situation in order to highlight the similarities and distinctions about the two regions mentioned above. The research aimed at apprehending how the pair redevelopment-abandonment engendered by the urban policies influence on the process of revaluation of historical centers by dwellers and to what extent there are convergences regarding such kinds of interventions, as an object of policies of urban and touristic development in Brazil and France. In order to make this work – besides the abundant bibliographic review carried out in libraries of several universities and institutions in Brazil and France – dwellers, merchants, teachers, representative people of public agencies and former residents of the historic centers of both cities were interviewed. In Tours, immigrants/Portuguese descendants were interviewed, point that greatly contributed to the understanding of the historic center before Vieux Tours renewal and restoration. Moreover a rich research on Archives and Public Agencies was done, as well as investigations on newspaper and articles on the Internet. Thus, in the context of the ethnography in historic centers, it was possible to notice that both realities reveal similarities in a comparative analytical framework

A educação básica na região metropolitana de Natal: uma análise da qualidade educativa e sua relação com o contexto familiar dos alunos

This dissertation aimed to investigate the formal learning process of children and teenagers through elementary education and, mainly, the support of family on domestic school activities as a step in the teaching-learning process. The student's family, with its cultural capital, provides an assistance which was the bias of the essay analyzes presented on this paper, using a spatial area of public elementary schools of the municipalities of the Natal metropolitan region. Such frame of Natal metropolis has been justified by the recent review of their basic education, taken by the Brazilian Ministry of Education, diagnosed in 2011, only 1% of students were in a adequate mathematics learning stage. While 62% were considered in a critical stage in this discipline. Given this issue, this dissertation offers a theoretical analysis about inherited and acquired within the family cultural capital, mainly focusing in the distances between the cultural level of the student's family and the defendant by the school. Then, presents the fundamental aspects of the issue on the urban phenomenon, focusing on social hierarchies and structures of city spaces that express differentiation, segmentation and socio-spatial segregation, and social exclusion. The emphasis on inequalities points to the development of an urban ethos, through formal schooling, which develops from social singularities. To theoretically develop the theme of Cultural Capital Family, this study sought to operationalize the concept through the interpretation of the phenomenon studied by a logical validation work hypotheses. The operation concepts systemically transformed into statistical indicators in order to measure the impact of individual, social and cultural characteristics of students elements. Finally, this dissertation found that the components evaluated, family cultural capital and housing conditions, can influence the development of skills and competencies of students in the educational sphere

Sons e Migração Forçada: Usos da Memória nas Práticas Expressivas

A partir de 1975, como consequência do processo de descolonização, mais de meio milhão de pessoas teve de abandonar Angola, país onde residia, rumo a Portugal. Estes migrantes, uma vez chegados ao seu destino, foram chamados “retornados”. Esta dissertação aborda o papel da música no fenómeno de migração forçada da qual os “naturais e ex-residentes de Angola” foram os protagonistas, bem como as formas como a deslocação é hoje por eles vivida. São apresentados dois casos de estudo, resultado de trabalho de campo realizado em Portugal. O primeiro diz respeito aos convívios que são organizados anualmente na cidade das Caldas da Rainha pelos ex-residentes das cidades angolanas do Huambo e da Huíla, e onde a música e a dança se revestem de uma importância relevante. O segundo foca a história de vida e as práticas expressivas de Pedro Coquenão, originário da cidade do Huambo, locutor radiofónico, músico, DJ e mentor do projeto performativo Batida. Em ambos os casos foi analisado o papel da música e da performance na integração, afirmação e reinvenção identitária. É salientada a importância da memória e dos seus diferentes usos, e da sensorialidade nas práticas expressivas dos intervenientes, já que estas favorecem a permanência e a reconstrução da sua “angolanidade” em Portugal.

Anàlisi socio-ambiental dels usos tradicionals, actuals i futurs de les bordes : prova pilot a la zona del Bosc de Virós (Pallars Sobirà)

El present projecte ha estat desenvolupat entre l’octubre de 2006 i el febrer de 2007 per un equip de llicenciades en Ciències Ambientals per la Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona. L’objecte d’estudi han estat les bordes, construccions agro-ramaderes utilitzades tradicionalment per a emmagatzemar l’herba i estabular-hi el bestiar. L’àmbit d’estudi seleccionat ha estat el Bosc de Virós, contingut dins el municipi d’Alins, a la comarca del Pallars Sobirà, Catalunya. Part de la superfície estudiada es troba sota la protecció del Parc Natural de l’Alt Pirineu. Per a dur a terme aquest estudi, s’ha desenvolupat una metodologia d’estudi de bordes amb dues vessants diferenciades que requereixen de tècniques metodològiques específiques. La vessant tècnica d’aquestes construccions s’ha materialitzat en un inventari de bordes, desenvolupat a partir de dades obtingudes durant l’observació al camp. La vessant etnològica s’ha obtingut a través de la realització d’entrevistes als propietaris, usuaris i gestors de la zona. A partir de l’anàlisi dels resultats, s’ha detectat una pèrdua de la funció tradicional d’aquestes construccions, derivant a una diversificació dels usos i un elevat grau d’abandonament d’aquestes. La diagnosi de l’estat d’aquests edificis i la seva influència sobre l’entorn és que els nous usos desenvolupats generen pressions sobre el medi i que el desús implica la degradació de l’estructura, amb la conseqüent pèrdua de patrimoni.
