Full textThe high level of informality of slum dwellers puts them in a “black box”, where policy makers cannot access with certainty information about the effectiveness of their actions. This paper examines the economic lives of slum dwellers in Latin America. Using case studies of El Salvador, Chile and Uruguay, we inspect the socioeconomic characteristics and opportunities of slum dwellers in comparison with the situations of the poor in each country. We found that while slum dwellers on average present poorer housing conditions than the poor, they are richer and have better job opportunities. However, the slum heterogeneity presented in terms of poverty and informality is a challenge for a more comprehensive, targeted and coordinated public policy for social inclusion.

The concept of Live-Work-Play has grown in popularity in the field of planning, as various strands of the planning literature increasingly have highlighted the potential benefits of providing places to live, work, and play in close proximity. This study explores the theoretical foundations of the Live-Work-Play concept and discusses its effectiveness as a strategy for creating vibrant urban areas by reforming the spatial arrangement of the built environments. More specifically, the present study empirically examines how the segregation or the mixture of places to live, work, and play may create differences in terms of growth, inequality, education, the built environment, and transportation by analyzing the Boston metropolitan region as an example. The empirical analysis with the use of census tract level socio-economic data shows that the Live-Work-Play mixes can encourage more desirable travel patterns, while the mixes may not significantly promote growth in small areas. However, the analysis also revealed racial and income inequalities exist in the provision of the mixes in the Boston region. These findings suggest planners carefully should consider the equity issues when adopting the Live-Work-Play concept and providing its potential benefits.

Full textThis study examines the correlation between the age of individuals’ first appearance in policerecords and their outcomes in life. By using unique data from The Stockholm Birth Cohort Study(SBC) we are able to follow individuals up to the age of 27 in administrative registers. Thisenables us to observe criminal behavior for individuals both above and below the age of criminalresponsibility. We find that people engaging in crime in early ages have a significantly higherrisk of relapsing into crime compared to people with a relatively late criminal debut, thus the ageof a criminal debut directly and indirectly may affect the prospects of individuals.

The present study analyses whether a Social Impact Bond is a suitable tool to fund APAC Portugal’s intervention model aiming to enhance the life of former offenders and reduce recidivism rates through helping them reinsert into society upon release. While the costs of running a prison will be borne by the public sector just as any other prison, the innovative intervention model has to find another way of financing. The suitability of using a Social Impact Bond to fund this innovative intervention was tested through the building of a robust excel model representing the investment mechanism in order to test the profitability of such a measure. The results show that a Social Impact Bond could indeed fund APAC Portugal’s intervention model efficiently.
Este estudo é uma análise à eficácia de um Social Impact Bond como como instrumento financeiro no modelo de intervenção da APAC Portugal. O objetivo é o de melhorar a vida de ex-criminosos e reduzir os índices de reincidência de modo a apoiar a sua reinserção na sociedade após a libertação. Enquanto os custos de funcionamento de um estabelecimento prisional forem suportados pelo sector público, como é de lei, o modelo inovador de intervenção terá de encontrar um meio alternativo de financiamento. Sendo assim, testámos a rentabilidade de um Social Impact Bond através de um bem estruturado modelo Excel que simula o mecanismo de investimento, tendo os resultados demonstrado que um Social Impact Bond pode, de facto, financiar o modelo de intervenção da APAC Portugal de forma eficaz.

Foram utilizadas 400 aves da linhagem Coob® (lote sexado - machos) criados de 42 a 49 dias, distribuídas em um delineamento inteiramente casualizado, em um esquema fatorial 2x2 (com e sem suplemento mineral e vitamínico e com e sem a inclusão de enzima fitase), totalizando quatro tratamentos com cinco repetições de 20 aves por tratamento. Nas rações formuladas com a inclusão da enzima fitase (1000 FTU), sua matriz nutricional estimada foi considerada. Os dados foram submetidos à análise de variância e quando ocorreu efeito significativo para os valores avariados as médias foram comparadas pelo teste SNK a 5% de probabilidade. Baseado nos resultados de desempenho zootécnico, pode-se recomendar a retirada do suplemento e a valorização da matriz nutricional da enzima fitase.
Abstract: The objective of this study was to analyze the withdrawal of the mineral and vitamin supplement and the valorization of the nutritional matrix of the enzyme phytase in the last week of broiler breeding (UNESP - Faculdade de Engenharia - Campus de Ilha Solteira, Poultry Sector). 42 to 49 days), evaluating characteristics of zootechnical performance (feed intake, weight gain and feed conversion), relative liver and pancreatic weight, blood parameters and economic viability analysis. A total of 400 birds of the Coob ® lineage (male - batch) were harvested from 42 to 49 days, distributed in a completely randomized design, in a 2x2 factorial scheme (with and without mineral and vitamin supplementation and with and without the inclusion of phytase enzyme ), totaling four treatments with five replicates of 20 birds per treatment. In the diets formulated with the inclusion of the enzyme phytase (1000 FTU), its estimated nutritional matrix was considered. The data were submitted to analysis of variance and when there was a significant effect for the faulty values the means were compared by the SNK test at 5% probability. Based on the results of zootechnical performance, we can recommend the withdrawal of the supplement and the valorization of the nutritional matrix of the enzyme phytase.

Exploding growth along the Colorado Front Range has expanded the wildland-urban interface-the area where homes and vegetation mix. This area, known as the WUI, is at high risk of wildfires. Wildfire risk is based on both natural conditions, such as invasive species and climate change, and human development decisions that allow continued growth in fire-prone areas. This thesis examines the approaches to wildfire risk mitigation taken by six counties along the Front Range. I argue that these mitigation approaches are effective but do not tackle important aspects of the wildfire problem, including who pays and how risks continue to increase. Counties should minimize development in the WUI by adopting strong policies that incorporate the full costs of fire protection into local jurisdictional budgets and address growth management in the WUI. This requires a greater incorporation of the land-use planning process into decisions that put people and property at risk to wildfire.

This thesis considers the ethnographic history of Simbo, a small island in the western Solomon Islands. The particular focus is upon the significance of conversion to Christianity and subsequent Christian practice, in shaping social and cultural issues and practices in the 1990s. Women's lives, in particular those aspects concerned with kinship, are the lens through which historical changes are viewed. By juxtaposing the structures suggested by indigenous lifecycle categories and the differentiation inherent in individual biographical material, I try to reflect the regularities and continuities within Simbo society as well as the variability and unpredictability of sociality at any given moment. At the same time, the mutability of structure is reflected in the transformed significance of institutions and ostensibly similar practices. -- The period under scrutiny is that between c. 1900-1990, which covers social practices and events from immediately prior to pacification and the Methodist Mission's establishment in the New Georgia Group in 1902 up until the present. I argue that since pacification, the progressive development of indigenous Christianity has been the major determinant of Simbo responses to the world system. This is not to argue that pacification represented the first intrusion of Europe or the beginning of social transformations. Constructions of indigenous societies as having been static entities before contact with Europe are critiqued. Pacification, after more than a century of contact with Europe, had revolutionary implications because of its significance from local worldviews, as much as for its demonstration of British political "legitimacy". -- Christianity, then, cannot be divorced from the reality of political and economic subordination throughout the twentieth century. Nor, however, can it be simpHstically treated as merely the ideological face of expanding capitalism. Following J. Comaroff and J.L. Comaroff, I treat the non-material aspects of social life as being as significant as the material. From its earliest days, the Methodist Mission both facilitated and hampered the interests of government and traders. But it is not only mission personnel who are important here. Simbo people have consistently shaped and deployed their own Christian frameworks. If they never resisted it, they have certainly transformed what was imposed on them ninety years ago from ideology to lived hegemony.

Full textTitle: The life is too soft to accord in to tariffs: an essay about youth and families with children who are recipients of economic support, their experience of their financial situation and the reception towards the social welfare.
Author: Ana Becovic & Kerstin Olsson Supervisor: Erik Wesser
Institution: Humanvetenskapliga institutionen, Högskolan i Kalmar
Type of Essay: Degree project, 15 ECTS Date: December 2008
The aim for our study has been to examine how youth and families who are recipients of economic support on long term basis experience their contact with social welfare. The starting point for the question at issue has been the client's experience of their financial situation the reception and expectations towards the social welfare.
In our B-level study we carried out qualitative interviews with social welfare officers to find out how they applied the "child perspective" in granting financial support and to what extent they felt that they succeeded in meeting the need of the client. The conclusion was that there is still room for improvement in this field and particularly a wish to focus more on the child's situation and development. The officers told us that they tried to pay closer attention to the child's situation through asking about the children and by visiting the families at home.
They expressed awareness of the importance to a child's well being the financial situation of their family. They also expressed the need for the child to be able to take part in leisure time activities and having an active social life.
In this study our research method is based on qualitative interviews. Our questionnaires where handed out to social welfare officers and workers in an organization aiming their work at vulnerable youth. The target group is the parents of younger/older children and young adults between 18 - 25 years. The result of our interviews has been analyzed in relation to earlier research and relevant theories. Final conclusion; the target group expresses a positive experience of their contact with social services. It became clear that the experience varied depending on which handling officer one met. An interesting point is how different the youngsters and their parents reason around needs and expectations.

Idealizada pelo professor Francisco Josà Matos, as FVs compÃem as praticas integrativas complementares, ancoradas na PolÃtica PÃblica Municipal e Nacional de Plantas Medicinais e FitoterÃpicos. Para compreender como essa polÃtica pÃblica municipal no Ãmbito farmÃcia viva surgiu e se estrutura, e como os atores sociais veem essa polÃtica pÃblica, fez-se do uso de metodologias histÃricas da linha do tempo, uma analise dos questionÃrios aplicados aos atores sociais gestores das FVs e outro questionÃrio destinado aos executores da polÃtica pÃblica. Como instrumento de anÃlise dos questionÃrios,empregou-se a estatÃstica descritiva e uma aproximaÃÃo da anÃlise do discurso.

Full textENGLISH ABSTRACT: The emerging black middle class in South Africa provides immense opportunity for marketers who wish to capture this segment of the market. However, in order to be relevant, a deep understanding of this ever-evolving segment is absolutely necessary. Characterised by complexity, the black middle class is heterogeneous and evolves at rapid speed. Studies by the Unilever Institute of Strategic Marketing highlighted the immense value of black middle class women, coined Black Diamond™ women. The primary objective of this research was to gain insights into the life of young black professional women and, secondly, to understand the driving forces behind their decision-making. This was achieved through an in-depth exploratory study. The first step in this study was to conduct a literature review on the black middle class in various African countries and the black middle class in South Africa. A review of literature on marketing communication provided the basis for reasoning on the appropriateness of different marketing communication tools. Literature also revealed the emergence of a possible new consumer type, the hybrid consumer. The literature review provided the framework for designing the interview schedules used in the expert interviews and interviews with the Black Diamond™ women. The findings of this research assignment were that the modern black middle class women face many complexities in their daily lives. Brands can, therefore, be significant to them by supporting them in their lives. Brands should customise their offerings, meet the black middle class women in innovative ways at different touch points, and bring meaning in their lives. Brands should also know that culture is prominent in all areas of their lives, which presents unique challenges.

Full textBecause of the socioeconomic and ethnic segregation in many Swedish towns, residents with different social backgrounds are often living in separate neighbourhoods. This thesis focuses on children aged between 11 and 14 and explores the spatial extent of their social networks, their spatial mobility and spatial representations. By studying these aspects of children’s daily lives the study attempts to contribute to a better understanding of the underlying mechanisms behind neighbourhood effects.
The spatial extension of the daily lives of children in seven adjacent neighbourhoods in a medium sized Swedish town is mapped. By using children’s activity diaries, surveys with parents and children’s maps the study explores to which extent children with different personal characteristics and from different neighbourhoods have friends outside their own neighbourhoods, where they spend time and what kind of activities they engage in and with whom. The study shows that the possibility to get their own direct experience of other neighbourhoods differs between groups of children, much depending on the geographical extension of their social networks, which in turn appears mainly to be a consequence of school reception areas and, indirectly, school popularity.
By using children’s maps and group interviews children’s perspectives of their own and other neighbourhoods are analysed. The thesis illustrates how children feel about and discuss their own neighbourhoods and other neighbourhoods in town. The children in the study emphasize their own neighbourhood as a good and quiet neighbourhood, irrespective of the neighbourhood’s character and status. One of the neighbourhoods is stigmatised in the public discourse. Among the children there is a living debate in relation to this neighbourhood. In group interviews the children sometimes confirm, sometimes critically question the rumours about this neighbourhood. The children which live in this neighbourhood are aware of the bad reputation and also act and react upon it
