Full textThis dissertation explores the notion of environmental management accounting innovation and aims to explore how they are created, if they are adopted or not into companies and the consequences thereof, and finally how they are practiced. Research methods combine participant observation, semi-structured interviews and secondary data. This dissertation is composed of three articles that together explore the different facets of management accounting innovations. The first article tackles the question of how innovations get created and on their path to institutionalization. The focus is on the actors and their strategies, the who and how of the institutionalization process. Through an in-depth case study of one organization, the second article uncovers the process of the non-adoption of a carbon accounting methodology. The third article analyses the practices surrounding and accounting innovation in a multinational.Overall, this dissertation makes three main theoretical contributions on the specific institutional work developed by elite, the role of internal legitimacy in organizational legitimacy, and on the processes of co-emergence of new practices. This research on EMA innovations also contributes to further understanding how sustainable development can be pursued through accounting in organizations

Full textThe objective of this work is to study the adoption of Free Software in the University of São Paulo. It is of special interest the study of the cultural and organizational aspects that contributed to the adoption of the Free Software among the systems administrators. The adoption study, was not limited to the individual adoption, but it extended to the organizational adoption once the adoption of technological innovations in organizations differs in special ways from the individual adoption. The organizational adoption examines aspects as the extension of the use of the innovation and, how deeply the use of the technology affects processes, structures and organizational culture. The adoption phenomenon in the University is particularly important for having it been a voluntary adoption of a new technology, in great scale and well succeeded. This research studies which factors restricted or favored the adoption of the new technology, as well as the social and cultural context of this adoption in different Units of USP

Full textLa rápida y fuerte penetración de las tecnologías de la comunicación móvil en los mercados mundiales presenta al marketing móvil con una fuerte influencia en la actividad empresarial y en la conducta del consumidor, tanto a nivel nacional como global. Mientras que la investigación académica se ha centrado en estudiar industrias específicas en el contexto del marketing móvil, este estudio se centra en un grupo profesional muy concreto: los médicos en consulta privada. En la primera parte de esta investigación se desarrollan los conceptos claves relacionados con el marketing móvil en el área médica. El estudio llevado a cabo en ginecólogos en Alemania proporciona un número relevante de aspectos tanto en el grupo de médicos que no utilizan el medio móvil en su práctica médica como para los pocos que ya lo utilizan. En el grupo de los no usuarios, los resultados indican varias barreras determinantes que dificultan la adopción del medio móvil como son la falta de tiempo del médico, consideraciones económicas y legales, y la falta de información. El estudio también identifica el grado de utilidad percibido por los médicos para diversas funciones de los móviles y aporta sugerencias respecto a los factores que pueden contribuir a la adopción de este medio. Se utilizan los métodos de Regresión logística ordinal y regresión logística directa con el fin de establecer en qué medida los factores demográficos y experiencia previa en el uso de medio móvil influyen sobre las decisiones y percepciones de los médicos. El estudio también presenta los resultados de un grupo de médicos que ya está utilizando canales móviles en su práctica médica. Se identifican tendencias, actividades planificadas y no planificadas a través de los móviles y se informa de los resultados del uso de los dispositivos y tecnología móvil en su práctica médica. Las implicaciones, limitaciones y futuras líneas de investigación concluyen esta disertación.
Mobile communication technologies have penetrated markets throughout the world, and thus mobile marketing is likely to have a strong influence on future business activities and consumer behavior, as well as on national and global markets. While academic research has started to focus on particular industries in the mobile marketing context, this study shifts the focus to the particular professional group of physicians in private practice. After first developing key concepts related to mobile marketing in the physician domain, the research carried out with gynecologists in Germany then provides a number of relevant insights stemming from both physicians not employing the mobile medium in their medical practice and the few who already do so. For the group of Non-Users, the findings indicate that several key adoption barriers seem to prevent the inclusion of the mobile channel, including the physicians’ lack of time, economic and legal considerations, and lack of information. The study also identifies the degree of usefulness for a range of mobile activities as perceived by the physicians themselves, and provides insights into which factors would be conducive for physicians to start using the mobile medium for said purposes. Both ordinal logistics regression and direct logistics regression are employed to gain a better understanding of how demographic factors and status of private mobile use impact physician responses. This yields significant findings across the board, with interesting implications given the demographic shift currently taking place in the German healthcare arena. The research also provides evidence from a group of physicians who already take advantage of the mobile channel in their medical practice. We identify current, planned and not-planned mobile activities, and present the reported experiences along several lines resulting from the use of mobile devices and technology in their medical practice. Implications, limitations and future research avenues conclude this dissertation.

Full textThis research aimed to study the principle of the best interest of the child, both in theory and in practice, in an attempt to conclude whether it is possible or not to adopt predetermined criteria to be followed in making decisions on issues involving children and adolescents. In the first part, theoretical, the content of the best interest was studied, as well as the possibility of understanding it as a rule of interpretation, fundamental right or principle. The second part, practical, sought to analyze how the courts have been deciding issues involving the best interest. In doing so, some institutes were selected (guardianship, adoption, anonymous childbirth, visits and education). The analysis of the guardianship passed by differentiating between placement in foster family and its assignment to one of the parents in case of separation. The possibility of assigning it to a third person and the imposition of shared custody were discussed. The visitation rights in case when the custody has been awarded to only one parent was studied. The research was extended to the hypothesis of granting this right to friends, stepfathers, stepmothers and godfathers or godmothers. The research studied Brazilian, intuitu personae and international adoptions, as well as the possibility of adoption by homosexual couples. Although non-existing under Brazilian law, the anonymous childbirth was analyzed to observe if it is viable and needed in our system. Finally, the right of education was studied, and aspects such as the possibility of homeschooling, transportation of children to their schools and the requiring of vacancies in childcare facilities were highlighted.
