Memoria para optar al título de ArquitectoValparaíso, cuya espontaneidad manifestada en una trama urbana orgánica, derivada del particular contexto geográfico de su emplazamiento y de su conformación histórica. Sus espacios públicos, pasajes, escaleras, recovecos e inmuebles de los más variados estilos arquitectónicos, nos trasladan a diferentes épocas de su desarrollo. Desde la conformación de los primeros caseríos en torno a la “Iglesia La Matriz”, pasando por su consolidación como la Ciudad-Puerto más importante del Pacifico Sudamericano, hasta la actualidad. Hoy en día, la ciudad, alberga en su paisaje natural, urbano y arquitectónico solo vestigios de un periodo de mayor esplendor. Tiempos de alto tráfico comercial, poder económico a nivel nacional y el desarrollo de una sociedad pluricultural. Imagen que le ha conferido a un área del Centro histórico de Valparaíso la categoría de Sitio Patrimonio de la Humanidad el año 2003.Esto ha despertado el interés de entidades tanto públicas como privadas para el desarrollo de proyectos. La expansión de la ciudad a los cerros ha provocado un despoblamiento en el plan de la ciudad, generando el abandono, deterioro y una apropiación irregular de los espacios públicos y el patrimonio arquitectónico. Lo anterior se evidencia en las precarias condiciones en las que se encuentra su herencia arquitectónica, debido a la negligencia por parte de los propietarios, gestiones publicas insuficientes y catástrofes naturales tales como terremotos, aludes e incendios. El estado de deterioro en que se encuentra Valparaíso refleja una baja consideración de patrimonio arquitectónico, poniéndolo en una situación de vulnerabilidad frente a los intereses de privados. En este contexto, se encuentra el “Barrio Almendral”, que cuenta con un importante número de sitios eriazos y construcciones de relevancia patrimonial deshabitadas, deterioradas, subutilizadas y ocupadas informalmente. Esto sumado al despoblamiento generalizado del barrio y necesidades habitacionales de Valparaíso plantea un gran desafío consistente la elaboración de un plan integral y sostenible en el tiempo, que permita el repoblamiento del sector, renovando sus usos y potenciando los valores propios su herencia urbana, constructiva y arquitectónica. Finalmente se diseña un proyecto que contempla la rehabilitación de la Escuela Ramon Barros Luco, Monumento Nacional con alto nivel de deterioro y la construcción de un nuevo edificio que mantiene la línea del edificio original para ser usadas como oficinas del MINVU y SERVIU. Lo anterior considera, potenciar los valores propios del inmueble revitalizando el contexto socio cultural del Barrio; consolidar el edificio estructuralmente, mejorando su comportamiento sísmico y asegurando su preservación; la habilitación de circulaciones verticales y horizontales para optimizar las circulaciones dentro del conjunto; el diseño de un patio techado abierto para el recreo de funcionarios y actividades de la comunidad; incorporar nuevas tecnologías y conceptos de arquitectura sustentable.

Full textAbstract:
L’acquifero della Montagnola Senese (conosciuto come “Luco”) codice regionale CIS 99MM030, è considerato un importante serbatoio idrico strategico della Toscana Meridionale.
Questo studio ha consentito l’approfondimento delle conoscenze per una migliore caratterizzazione geometrico-strutturale, idrodinamica e idrochimica dell’acquifero e restituisce i risultati di un lavoro che ha l’obiettivo di realizzare un modello concettuale e un primo approccio al modello numerico di flusso in regime permanente ai fini della valutazione e gestione delle risorse idriche sotterranee valutando anche la sua vulnerabilità all’inquinamento.
I nuovi dati relativi alla geometria dell’acquifero, costituito dalle formazioni carbonatiche del Calcare Cavernoso e della Breccia di Grotti, sono stati acquisiti attraverso sondaggi geoelettrici, tomografie geofisiche, stratigrafie di pozzi, una nuova perforazione profonda e confrontati con la cartografia geologica del continuum regionale.
Ciò ha permesso di valutare la sua estensione, affiorante e non, pari a circa 166,3 Km2 a fronte di un’area di alimentazione pari a circa 91,6 Km2. L’intero complesso idrogeologico permeabile risulta avere uno spessore medio di circa 178 m.
Per quanto riguarda la caratterizzazione idrodinamica dell’acquifero, necessaria alla descrizione dell’andamento spaziale e temporale della superficie piezometrica, si può affermare che, nonostante la disomogenea distribuzione spaziale dei punti di misura, sono state individuate due principali direzioni di flusso della falda idrica sotterranea: verso Sud (Piano di Rosia) e verso Nord-Ovest (Abbadia a Isola e Strove). Tale caratterizzazione sia dei flussi, sia dei parametrici idrodinamici, necessita di futuri approfondimenti con esecuzione di nuove indagini.
La valutazione della ricarica dell’acquifero è stata affrontata con due metodologie:
- La prima, una volta definita la superficie dell’aree di ricarica per infiltrazione, valutando indirettamente l’infiltrazione totale in relazione all’eccedenza idrica calcolata. Tale valutazione (dati medi del periodo 1967-2006) porta a stimare la ricarica media in oltre 21·106 m3/anno.
- La seconda, basata sulle escursioni dei livelli piezometrici di falda misurati (Marzo 2009-Gennaio 2010), individua una risorsa dinamica che, in virtù di una porosità efficace ne del 8% (da letteratura tale complesso è caratterizzato da ne tra 5-10%), può essere valutata in circa 8,1·106 m3/anno a cui andrebbero sommati i circa 12·106 m3/anno di acqua che attualmente vengono prelevati dall’acquifero per un ammontare complessivo della risorsa annua pari a circa 20·106 m3. Pur con tutti i limiti connessi a tale tipo di valutazione, i risultati ottenuti, con i due criteri, sono in pieno accordo tra loro.
Per quanto concerne la riserva idrica la sua valutazione è dell’ordine di 1,5·109 m3, vale a dire circa 100 volte superiore alla risorsa dinamica.
Infine, se confrontiamo le valutazioni della risorsa rinnovabile con l’attuale domanda d’acqua ad uso idropotabile si nota che a fronte di una ricarica media pari circa 21·106 m3, i consumi ammontano a circa 11,7·106 m3, risulta quindi teoricamente possibile un ulteriore utilizzo della falda ospitata nell’acquifero della Montagnola Senese.
Sulla base delle conoscenze acquisite è stato realizzato il modello concettuale dell’acquifero, base fondamentale della modellazione numerica. Il sistema acquifero è stato quindi rappresentato, per mezzo di un modello numerico tridimensionale ad elementi finiti (FEM), con l’utilizzo del codice numerico FEFLOW (Finite Element subsurface FLOW system), operando in regime permanente.
I dati di input sono stati inseriti nel sistema attraverso l’assegnazione di condizioni ai limiti (Boundary Condition) di carico idraulico, di trasferimento di flussi, di emungimenti e delle proprietà dei materiali (Material Properties) come la permeabilità, la porosità e l’infiltrazione.
I risultati finali hanno permesso di stimare i quantitativi d’acqua presenti all’interno dell’acquifero in studio mettendo in risalto l’importanza e il ruolo che ricopre l’infiltrazione meteorica che riesce a bilanciare gli emungimenti e a mantenere in equilibrio tutto il sistema.
Data l’importanza strategica dell’acquifero, a completamento dello studio idrogeologico della Montagnola Senese, è stata effettuata anche la valutazione della sua vulnerabilità intrinseca all’inquinamento attraverso un metodo simiparametrico denominato SIPS.
Questa metodologia originale, riconducibile ad un SINTACS semplificato, ha consentito, attraverso la stima di quattro parametri base, di valutare la vulnerabilità intrinseca del corpo idrico sotterraneo che per il 75% risulta essere compresa tra elevata e medio alta.The Montagnola Senese aquifer (known as “Luco”) is an important and strategic water reserve in Southern Tuscany. With this study we have furthered our knowledge for the geometrical/structural, hydrodynamic and hydrochemical aquifer characterization and for the development of a conceptual model of it. In addition, this model provides the results of a work that aims to create a conceptual model and a first approach to the numerical model of flow in permanent regime for the evaluation and management of groundwater resources, while also assessing its vulnerability to pollution. New aquifer geometry data, represented by carbonate formation of Calcare Cavernoso and Breccia di Grotti, were acquired through geoelectrical surveys, geophysical tomography, borehole stratigraphy, a new deep borehole and compared with the geological mapping of Regione Toscana Continuum Map. This allowed to estimate the outcropping and non-outcropping aquifer extension (166,3 Km2), in respect of a feeding area of about 91,6 Km2. The entire permeable hydrogeological complex is found to have an average thickness of about 178 m. With regard to the hydrodynamic characterisation of the aquifer, which is necessary to describe the spatial and temporal trend of the piezometric surface, it can be stated that, despite the uneven spatial distribution of the measurement points, two main directions of underground water flow have been identified: southward (Piano di Rosia) and northwestward (Abbadia a Isola and Strove). This characterization of flows and hydrodynamic parameters needs further investigation in the future. The assessment of aquifer recharge was approached with two methodologies: - First one, evaluating the total infiltration in relation to the calculated water surplus infiltration, once the recharge area has been defined. This assessment (average data from 1967-2006) leads to estimate an average aquifer recharge of over 21·106 m3/year. - Second one, based on the excursion of the measured groundwater piezometric levels (March 2009-January 2010); it identifies a dynamic resource that, using an effective porosity (ne) of 8%, can be estimated at about 8,1·106 m3/year, to which should be added 12·106 m3/year of water that is currently withdrawn from the aquifer for a total amount of the annual hydric resource of about 20·106 m3. Even with all the limitations associated with this type of evaluation, the results obtained, with the two criteria, are in complete agreement with each other. As far as the water reserve is concerned, it is evaluated at around 1.5 billion m3, that is to say about 100 times greater than the dynamic resource. Comparing the renewable resource evaluations with current drinking water demand, we note that in the face of an average aquifer recharge of about 21·106 m3, water consumption is about 11,7·106 m3. Further utilisation of the aquifer hosted in the Montagnola Senese aquifer is therefore theoretically possible. Based on the knowledge gained, the conceptual model of the aquifer was created. The aquifer system has been represented using a three-dimensional finite element numerical model (FEM), by using FEFLOW (Finite Element subsurface FLOW system) numerical code, operating in permanent regime. Input data have been entered into the system by assigning boundary conditions at the hydraulic loading, at the water outflows and to the material properties such as permeability, porosity and infiltration. Final results made possible to estimate water quantities present in the aquifer, highlighting the importance and role played by meteoric infiltration in balancing the water outflows and keeping the system in balance. Given its strategic importance, to complete the hydrogeological study of Montagnola Senese aquifer, an assessment of its intrinsic vulnerability to pollution was also carried out using a simiparametric method called SIPS. This original methodology, which can be ascribable to a simplified SINTACS, made it possible, through the estimation of four basic parameters, to assess the intrinsic vulnerability of the groundwater aquifer, which is for 75% high to medium-high.

Full textAbstract:
En Chile, existe una alta prevalencia de hipertensión en la población, siendo de 33,7%. La línea de tratamiento en estos pacientes corresponde a terapia farmacológica y no farmacológica, dentro de esta última, la práctica de actividad física es fundamental en ellos por sus efectos, disminuyendo los niveles de presión arterial y uso de fármacos. Sin embargo, la actividad física en los hipertensos de atención primaria ha sido escasamente determinada, por tanto, se desconoce su influencia en la salud cardiovascular e índices antropométricos en estos pacientes. Debido a lo expuesto, el objetivo principal del presente estudio fue determinar el nivel de actividad física y gasto energético asociado, en población femenina hipertensa, edad 35 a 55 años, bajo tratamiento médico en el Consultorio Barros Luco. Para ello se utilizó el Cuestionario Internacional de Actividad Física (IPAQ), el cual estima el gasto energético semanal. Como parámetro fisiológico de la condición física en estos pacientes, se determinó directamente el consumo de oxígeno peak y estimó el consumo de oxígeno máximo, ambos mediante el dispositivo Fitmate Pro, en test de esfuerzo submáximo en cicloergómetro. Finalmente, se evaluaron características antropométricas, tales como peso, talla, circunferencia de cintura y cadera, entre otros. Se reclutaron 22 pacientes hipertensas, cuyo promedio de edad fue 49,3 ± 14,7 años. El nivel de presión arterial sistólica y diastólica promedio fue 135,6 ± 14,7 y 84,9 ± 9,8 mmHg, respectivamente. La mediana para el consumo de oxígeno peak fue 15,35 ml/kg/min, mientras que, el consumo de oxigeno máximo se estimo en 24,5 ml/kg/min. Según el IPAQ, la actividad física desarrollada por estas pacientes tuvo un gasto energético total de 4003 Kcal/semana, concentrándose en las actividades domésticas y del transporte activo (1637,5 y 460,5 kcal/semana, respectivamente). El dominio tiempo libre representa sólo 3,4 % del gasto total. En la muestra, un 45,5% no adhiere a tratamiento farmacológico antihipertensivo y 86,3% presentó sobrepeso u obesidad. En este estudio concluimos que las pacientes hipertensas estudiadas del Consultorio Barros Luco, desarrollaron un nivel moderado de actividad física asociado principalmente a actividades domésticas. Si bien, el gasto energético esta por sobre el nivel recomendado, esto parece no estar influyendo adecuadamente en la salud, dado el perfil cardiovascular, antropométrico y nivel de consumo de oxigeno que presenta la muestra. Es necesario un estudio de mayor población para confirmar la tendencia de estos resultados, en pro de la atención primaria de salud.In Chile, there’s a high hypertension prevalence in hypertensive population, being of 33,7%. The line of treatment in these patients correspond to pharmacological and non-pharmacological therapy, within the latter, the physical activity is essential in them due the decrease of blood pressure and use of drugs it produces. However, physical activity in hypertensive patients of primary health care has been poorly determined, so it’s unknown the influence on blood pressure in these patients. Due to the above, the main objective of this study was to determine the level of physical activity and energy expenditure associated, in a feminine hypertensive population, 35 to 55 years old, under medical treatment in the Barros Luco clinic. For this, it was used the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ), which estimates the weekly energy expenditure. As a physiological parameter of the physical condition in these patients, the peak oxygen consumption and was directly determinate and the maximum oxygen consumption was estimed, both with the Fitmate Pro device, tested on a cycleergometer in a submaximal exercise. Finally, it was evaluated anthropometric characteristics, such as weight, height, waist and hip circumference, among others. We recruited 22 patients with hypertension, whose average age was 49,3 + 14,7 years. The average level of systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure was 135,64 + 14,7 mmHg, and 84,95 + 9,8 mmHg, respectively. The peak oxygen consumption has a median of 15, 35 ml/kg/min, while maximum oxygen consumption was estimated in 24, 5 ml/kg/min. According to IPAQ, physical activity developed by these patients has a total energy expenditure of 4003 kcal/week, focusing on domestic activities and active transport (1637,5 and 460,5 kcal/week, respectively). The free time domain represents just 3,4% of the total expenditure. In the sample, 45,5% did not adhere to antihypertensive medication and 86,3% were overweight or obese. In this study we conclude that the hypertensive patients studied in the Barros Luco clinic, developed a moderate level of physical activity, mainly associated to domestic activities. While energy expenditure is above the recommended level, this doesn’t appear to be influencing adequately in health, according to the cardiovascular profile, anthropometric and oxygen consumption level that the sample shows. It’s necessary a study of a bigger population to confirm the tendency of this results, towards primary health care.

Introducción: La infección buco máxilo facial (IBMF) odontogénica es una patología aguda de alta incidencia y prevalencia, siendo un importante problema de salud pública a nivel mundial. Sin embargo, pocos estudios describen las variables sociodemográficas y epidemiológicas de estas infecciones. Es por esto que el propósito del presente Trabajo de Investigación es describir el perfil epidemiológico de las IBMF en el Servicio de Urgencia del Hospital Barros Luco Trudeau (HBLT). Material y Método: Se revisaron 69.418 “Datos de Atención de Urgencia” (DAU) de los pacientes atendidos en el Servicio de Urgencia Dental del HBLT, entre enero de 2008 y junio de 2010. Se confeccionó una base de datos de los pacientes diagnosticados con IBMF, la que fue registrada en el programa Office® 2007 para Windows. Para el análisis estadístico se usó software STATA® 11.0. Resultados: Del universo de 69.418 DAU revisados, el 52,36% corresponden a pacientes diagnosticados con IBMF; 50,61% fueron mujeres y 49,39% hombres, mayoritariamente de estrato socioeconómico medio-bajo. Los grupos etarios más afectados fueron la segunda, tercera y cuarta décadas. La etiología más frecuente entre las IBMF es la odontogénica. Las infecciones odontogénicas más frecuentemente diagnosticadas fueron periodontitis apical supurada (44,68%), necrosis pulpar séptica (16,18%) y periodontitis marginal avanza (14,13%). Los signos y síntomas más frecuentes fueron aumento de volumen, trismus y dolor espontáneo. La extracción de la pieza causal fue el tratamiento más frecuente. Sólo el 0,16% de los pacientes diagnosticados con IBMF requirieron de hospitalización para la resolución de su cuadro infeccioso, presentando más enfermedades sistémicas, psiquátricas o neurológicas que los pacientes que recibieron tratamiento ambulatorio. Conclusiones: Estos resultados son el primer paso para obtener el perfil epidemiológico del paciente adulto con IBMF en Chile, de manera de establecer una línea de base para el desarrollo de protocolos de atención, estrategias de prevención e instauración de políticas de salud pública sobre este importante problema de salud.

Trabajo de Investigación Requisito para optar al Título de Cirujano DentistaIntroducción. Los aparatos removibles, son efectivos en interceptar y corregir anomalías dentomaxilares, sin embargo el éxito del tratamiento depende de la adherencia del paciente. Adherencia es el grado en que el comportamiento de una persona, corresponde con las recomendaciones acordadas con un prestador de salud. No existen instrumentos capaces de medirla en aparatos removibles, sin embargo, algunos cuestionarios evalúan las motivaciones y aceptación, y en conjunto, podrían evaluar adherencia. Se seleccionaron los cuestionarios “Acceptance and discomfort in growing patients during treatment with two functional appliances: a randomised controlled trial” (ADGP), “Motivation of patients and parents for orthodontic treatment” (MPPOT) e “Impacto Psicosocial de la Estética Dental” (PIDAQ) con el objetivo de validarlos en niños chilenos entre 7 y 13 años (y sus tutores) en tratamiento de ortodoncia mediante aparatos removibles en el Servicio de Especialidades Odontológicas del Hospital Barros Luco Trudeau (SEO-HBLT), campo clínico de la Universidad de Chile. Material y Métodos. Estudio transversal descriptivo. Se escogió una muestra de 84 niños chilenos de entre 7 y 13 años (y sus tutores) en tratamiento de ortodoncia mediante aparatos removibles, en el año 2015 y 2016 en SEO-HBLT. Se excluyeron pacientes y tutores con alguna discapacidad que les impida responder por sí solos. Luego de firmar el consentimiento informado, los pacientes contestaron los cuestionarios en la sala de espera. Se utilizó la pauta “¿Cómo validar un instrumento de medida de la Salud?” (Carvajal y cols., 2011) Resultados. Se evaluó un total de 84 pacientes, 57,1% de sexo femenino y 42,9% masculino, de 9,64 años promedio. El tiempo en tratamiento fue 23,35 meses promedio. La edad de los tutores fue 40,04 años promedio, 86,9% mujeres. Un 92,9% pertenece a FONASA. La adaptación transcultural se obtuvo mediante 3 traducciones y una prueba piloto que modificó 3 preguntas PIDAQ, obteniendo la primera versión del instrumento. La confiabilidad como consistencia interna, se calculó con coeficiente Alfa de Cronbach para PIDAQ y ADGPA, con valores 0,709 y 0,613 respectivamente. Para estabilidad temporal, mediante método test-retest, obtuvimos valores para formula de Pearson de 0,916 y 0,921 respectivamente. La validez de contenido, se obtuvo mediante metodología Delphi con juicio de 7 expertos. La validez de constructo se logró por análisis factorial exploratorio. PIDAQ, obtuvo 6 factores que explican el 62,1% de la varianza total y ADGPA, 4 componentes con 73,1%. Todos los datos fueron analizados en el programa SPSS Statistics v.23 ® . La factibilidad fue de 100% de respuestas contestadas con un promedio de 9,7 minutos. Discusión. La confiabilidad como consistencia interna, se considera aceptable para PIDAQ y cuestionable para ADGPA. El coeficiente de Pearson, se clasifica como muy alto para ambos cuestionarios. El instrumento se considera factible, con formato sencillo, tiempo en contestar breve y 100% de preguntas respondidas. Tan solo 10 pacientes no contestaron el cuestionario de motivación, porque aún no usaban aparatos. Se sugiere incluir este requisito como un nuevo criterio de inclusión. Acorde con la literatura internacional, el principal motivo para buscar tratamientos de ortodoncia en la muestra, es la preocupación por la estética. Conclusión. El cuestionario PIDAQ presenta valores adecuados de validez y confiabilidad, para su uso en el contexto nacional con el propósito de diseñar y evaluar pacientes en tratamiento de ortodoncia mediante aparatos removibles. Se obtuvo la adaptación transcultural, se estableció la validez de contenido y de constructo de la versión adaptada de los 3 cuestionarios. Todos los cuestionarios son factibles de aplicar.

Trabajo de Investigación Requisito para optar al Título de Cirujano DentistaEl trauma craneofacial representa un importante problema de salud mundial. Está asociado a alta morbilidad, pérdida de función, secuelas estéticas y un alto costo financiero. En Chile existen muy pocos estudios sobre trauma craneofacial, debido a esto, existe la necesidad de recopilar datos epidemiológicos de trauma craneofacial para identificar el perfil del paciente que acude a los Servicios de Urgencias. Un mejor entendimiento de los patrones demográficos, factores de riesgo asociados y etiología de los traumatismos permitirá elaborar e implementar protocolos de tratamiento y medidas preventivas más eficientes, con el fin de destinar la mayor cantidad de recursos (monetarios,personal capacitado,etc) para cubrir las demandas del país. Se realizó un estudio retrospectivo descriptivo de tipo cuantitativo en el Servicio de Urgencia del Hospital Barros Luco, consistente en la recolección retrospectiva de datos mediante la revisión de fichas clínicas pertenecientes a los pacientes atendidos en dicho servicio durante el período comprendido entre Enero de 2006 hasta Marzo de 2010. Los datos obtenidos fueron tabulados utilizando el programa Microsoft Acces 2007. En el universo de 603.308 consultas, se obtuvo un total de 3160 pacientes con trauma craneofacial. La proporción entre sexo masculino y femenino fue de 1,5:1, siendo el grupo etario entre los 20-29 años de edad el más afectado y la violencia interpersonal como el factor etiológico más frecuente de este grupo. Sin embargo, del total de pacientes registrados el factor etiológico más frecuente fueron las caídas (53%). El alcohol estuvo presente en el 5,1% de los casos y la lesión concomitante más frecuente fue en las extremidades superiores (27,9%). La cantidad total de lesiones registradas fue de 4.699, registrando un 63,6% a nivel de tejidos blandos, siendo las contusiones nasales las más frecuentes. En tejidos duros (36,4%), el 75,9% correspondieron a traumatismos dentoalveolares, y el 24,1% restante correspondió a fracturas óseas, siendo las fracturas mandibulares las más frecuentes. 2 Los resultados obtenidos en este estudio permiten identificar los individuos más afectados y los patrones de distribución de estas lesiones. Sin embargo, es necesario que se realicen más estudios en nuestro país para obtener un perfil epidemiológico representativo de estos traumas.

Full textAbstract:
Luck feelings have long been thought to influence decision making involving risk. Previous research has established the importance of prior outcomes, luck beliefs, and counterfactual thinking in the generation of luck feelings, but there has been no comprehensive demonstration of this system of variables that impinge on luck feelings. Moreover, the actual relationship of luck feelings and risky choice has not been directly tested. Addressing these gaps, results from five studies are presented in this thesis. Empirical work begins with an extensive validation exercise of an existing 22-item luck beliefs scale. Those 22 items are refined to a 16-item scale, comprising four luck belief dimensions that inter-relate in a compelling structural arrangement. Insights from this exercise, and a subset of the items are used throughout the remainder of the thesis. Results from two studies contradicted the counterfactual closeness hypothesis, the most prominent theory in the psychology of luck, which holds that counterfactual thinking is essential for generating lucky feelings. However, one study found that affect and luck feelings are not unitary, as evidenced by a weak form of double dissociation of affect and lucky feelings from overestimation and overplacement. Another study found lucky and unlucky feelings to be distinct. The effects of lucky feelings and unlucky feelings on risky choice differ by the nature of a prior outcome. For negative outcomes, unlucky feelings are likely to influence risky choices. For positive outcomes, lucky feelings are likely to influence risky choices. The type of risky choice most affected by lucky feelings—for positive experiences—is ambiguity tolerance in the probability distributions of prospective outcomes. The Activation Theory of Luck Feelings (ActLF) is proposed, which reconciles previous findings to those reported herein.

Tendo em vista a complexidade inerente à atividade contábil, o legislador determinou que para certas situações seria necessária uma opção mais simples para se apurar a renda de algumas pessoas jurídicas e o lucro presumido foi a forma escolhida a ser aplicada. Consiste em presumir que a renda é um percentual aplicado sobre a receita operacional, acrescido de outros ganhos. Tal opção, desde a sua criação ocorrida há mais de 65 anos, gerou uma oportunidade para os contribuintes escolherem o regime de tributação mais vantajoso, ou seja, aquele em que o encargo tributário fosse menor; para isso, bastaria escolherem a opção em que a renda fosse menor e, conseqüentemente, estariam optando pelo regime mais vantajoso. A Contribuição Social sobre o Lucro Líquido (CSLL), criada em 1988, foi uma forma de ser aumentada a arrecadação tributária da União mantendo-se relativamente constante a arrecadação do montante de tributos incidentes sobre a renda, visto que o produto da arrecadação da CSLL não é compartilhado com Estados e Municípios como ocorre com o IRPJ. Juntamente com a legislação dessa contribuição, surgiu um regime em que o contribuinte que optasse pelo lucro presumido, automaticamente, estaria vinculado a uma forma semelhante de tributação da CSLL. Tal situação fez com que o contribuinte, ao optar pelo regime do lucro presumido tivesse de levar em consideração os efeitos que essa decisão provocaria no cálculo da CSLL. Até o ano de 2002, a decisão de se optar pelo lucro presumido não influenciava a quantia a ser paga relativamente aos outros tributos, porém, no final de 2002, entrou em vigor a contribuição para o Programa de Integração Nacional (PIS) na forma não-cumulativa, com base de cálculo e alíquotas definidas de acordo com a opção ou não pelo regime do lucro presumido. À semelhança dessa forma de tributação, no ano seguinte, nasceu a Contribuição para Financiamento da Seguridade Social (COFINS). Esse tratamento vinculado dado aos quatro tributos tornou mais complexa a decisão em se optar ou não pelo lucro presumido. O presente trabalho equacionou a totalidade de tributos apurados segundo os regimes de tributação do lucro real e do lucro presumido para cada setor de atividade, obtendo as relações entre receitas e despesas em que a opção pelo lucro presumido ou real é indiferente. Dessa forma, situando-se as receitas e despesas da pessoa jurídica com relação a essa fronteira, torna-se possível decidir se o administrador deve ou não optar pelo lucro presumido. Subsidiariamente, foi possível constatar que, no que se refere aos aspectos tributários, não é interessante manter nas empresas aplicações financeiras que representem estoque de capital, pois essa situação acarretará pagamento de tributos em valor maior se comparado com esse capital de posse dos sócios, pessoas físicas.The Federal Government, as the user of accounting information, uses the accounting profit as the base to define the taxable income of corporations: it is the actual profit, as defined in the Corporate Income Tax (IRPJ) regulations. Due to the complexity inherent to the accounting activity, the lawmakers have established that, in certain situations, a simpler option would be required to assess the income of certain corporations, and the assumed profit was the method chosen, which consists of assuming that the income is a percentage applicable to the operating income, including other gains. Since its creation over 65 years ago, said option has provided taxpayers an opportunity to choose the most beneficial taxation regime, i.e., the regime providing the lowest tax rate; to do so, companies simply had to choose the option where the income was the lowest, consequently the most beneficial regime. The Social Tax on Net Profits (CSLL), created in 1988, was a method found by the Government to increase the Federal tax revenue, keeping relatively constant the amount of taxes applicable to the income, since the CSLL revenue is not shared with the States and municipalities, as is the case with the Corporate Income Tax. In conjunction with the regulation for this tax, a new taxation regime was created, where the taxpayer that opted for the assumed profit would be automatically bound to a taxation form similar to the CSLL. This situation made the taxpayer opting for the assumed profit regime to consider the effects of said options on the calculation of the CSLL. Until 2002, the decision for choosing the assumed profit regime did not impact the amount payable against other taxes; however, in late 2002, the non-cumulative contribution to the PIS (Employees\' Profit Sharing Program) was established, with calculation basis and rates defined according to whether the assumed profit regime was chosen or not. Similarly to this the Social Security Funding Tax (COFINS) was created. This combined treatment of the four taxes has added complexity to the decision for choosing the assumed profit or not. This paper has summed up the taxes assessed according to the actual profit and assumed profit taxation regimes for each industry, establishing the revenue/expense rates where the option for assumed or actual profit is immaterial. Thus, by measuring corporate revenues and expenses against this benchmark, it is possible to decide whether managers should opt for the assumed profit regime or not. Additionally, we could observe that, concerning taxation aspects, it is not advantageous for companies to keep investments that represent capital stock, since this scenario would entail higher taxes compared to capital owned by individual partners.

Abstract
Gambling is a universal activity, although not a recently studied behavior in Sociological literature. This study uses symbolic interaction, play, and illusion of control theories to examine luck rituals at casino slots. Gamblers were observed through covert participant observations over a seven-month observation period in The casino, and yielded 388 observations. Analysis of the gamblers demonstrated the fact that luck rituals do exist and are used at the slot machines in a casino setting. Luck rituals are associated with participants’ belief in their ability to control the uncontrollable. The illusion of control provides a framework through which the results are discussed. Illusions of control are particularly likely to occur in situations with a high amount of uncertainty. This study showed that more women and African Americans participate in luck rituals than men.

Mais do que uma teoria sobre a relação entre Portugal e os trópicos, o luso-tropicalismo constitui, nos respectivos imaginários nacionais, a experiência de Portugal no mundo e a originalidade e legitimidade da nação brasileira. A tese de Freyre toca de forma íntima as identidades nacionais dos dois países e lhes confere uma singularidade relevante para a nova conjuntura internacional, que se afigurou no final do século XX. O trabalho defende que o luso-tropicalismo ganhou novas formas, menos explicitas, em comparação ao período colonial português, mas centrais e marcantes nos discursos político-culturais que vem movimentando as relações luso-brasileiras e criando uma nova imagem para política externa de ambos os países. Nessa perspectiva, o luso-tropicalismo reaparece sob roupagem dinâmica a reorientar a política de Brasil e Portugal, servindo de base para o discurso de aproximação e cooperação entre os povos lusófonos

[Truncated abstract] In this thesis, I seek to determine whether luck egalitarianism is a compelling interpretation of egalitarian justice. In answering this question, I challenge existing interpretations and criticisms of luck egalitarianism, and highlight its radical consequences. I propose a revised theory of luck egalitarianism, and conclude that it does represent a compelling interpretation of egalitarian justice. In the first chapter, I trace the evolution of luck egalitarianism, highlighting the variety of theories that have been grouped under this label. In chapter 2, I defend the approach against an influential critique by Elizabeth Anderson, who argues that luck egalitarianism is inherently disrespectful, trapped in the distributive paradigm, and harsh in its approach towards the victims of bad option luck. I argue against these criticisms, pointing out that the harsh treatment problem will rarely arise because few inequalities result entirely from option luck, and that luck egalitarianism is not disrespectful to those it seeks to assist, nor trapped in the distributive paradigm. In chapter 3, I analyse the distinction between option luck and brute luck, which is crucial to luck egalitarianism. I argue that the option-brute distinction is inconsistent with the underlying impulse of luck egalitarianism because it allows morally arbitrary inequalities to go uncorrected and because it is insufficiently sensitive to the impact of background inequalities on individual choice. I propose a revised theory of luck egalitarianism that focuses on the extent to which a person's level of advantage has been genuinely chosen, rejecting the option-brute distinction. In chapter 4, I give a broader justification of this theory, analysing recent critiques by Susan Hurley and Samuel Scheffler, who have both questioned the moral foundations of luck egalitarianism. In chapter 5, I outline a conception of egalitarian advantage to work alongside the revised theory of luck egalitarianism. I support Cohen's claim that egalitarians should adopt a heterogeneous account of advantage, which includes resources, welfare, and midfare. ... In chapter 7, I highlight the counter-intuitive social policy applications of luck egalitarianism, arguing that the universal approach to social provision associated with the social democratic welfare state comes closer to achieving luck-egalitarian objectives than the residual and conditional provision of benefits and services that is associated with the liberal welfare state. I conclude that luck egalitarianism, in the revised form I outline in chapter 3, is a compelling interpretation of egalitarian justice.

Full textAbstract:
Clare, the titular character of The Time Traveller's Wife, reflects that "Everything seems simple until you think about it." (Niffenegger, 2003, 1) This might well be a mantra for the whole of philosophy, but a fair few terms tend to stick out. "Knowledge", "goodness" and "happiness" for example, are all pervasive everyday terms that undergo significant philosophical analysis. "Luck", I think, is another one of these terms. Wishing someone good luck in their projects, and cursing our bad luck when success seems so close to our reach or failure could have so easily been otherwise, happens so often that we rarely stop to reflect on what we really mean. Philosophical reflection on the nature of luck has a rich tradition, that is by no stretch confined to the Western philosophical canon. However, it has only very recently become one of the goals of philosophy to provide a clear account of what luck actually amounts to. This, in part, is the goal of this thesis. The thesis has two primary motivations. The first is to offer and defend a general account of luck that overcomes the problems faced by the current accounts of luck that are available in the current philosophical literature. The second is to apply this general account of luck to the areas of metaethics and epistemology where luck has been a pervasive and problematic concept, and demonstrate how this account of luck may resolve or further illuminate some of the problems that the notion has generated. The thesis is roughly split into two parts. The first half of the thesis focuses on the former objective of offering an account of luck. Chapter 1 offers a selected history of the philosophy of luck that spans from the Ancient Greeks to the present day, so that we might properly situate the current work on luck as part of the broader historical importance of the concept. Chapter 2 will set out the major rival to the theory of luck that I will offer - the lack of control account of luck (LCAL). LCAL has various iterations across the literature, but is most clearly articulated by Wayne Riggs (2009) and E.J. Coffman (2006, 2009). Both Coffman and Riggs add and adapt their own conditions to LCAL specifically so that the account may overcome several problems that have been levied against it. These further conditions are not incompatible so, to provide the strongest lack of control account possible, I have combined them to form a lack of control account I have called Combined LCAL - (c)LCAL. The latter part of the chapter pits (c)LCAL against some of the problems that have been raised against LCAL. However, despite the efforts of both Riggs and Coffman, even (c)LCAL fails to counter some of these objections. For these reasons I have rejected LCAL has a viable candidate for an account of luck. Chapter 3 sets out a modal account of luck (MAL), as argued for by Pritchard (2004, 2005, 2014), where an event is lucky only if it occurs in the actual world, but not in a relevant set of nearby possible worlds. Here I further elaborate on how we should understand the modal distances using Lewisian possible world semantics, and what worlds should be taken into consideration when fixing the relevant set of nearby possible worlds. I argue that these relevant sets of worlds should be fixed according to the domain of inquiry of which the luck is being applied - this I call the type of luck. Examples of this is the current literature are resultant luck - the type of luck concerned with the results of our actions, and veritic luck - the type of luck concerned with the modal safety of our belief formation. Due to the multitude of types of luck across disciplinary areas, a general modal account of luck requires flexibility in what factors should fix the relevant sets of possible worlds. I achieve this by providing a [TYPE] function for the general modal account of luck, which is used as a mean of inserting the relevant fixing conditions for any domain of inquiry. Chapter 3, in a similar vein to Chapter 2, pits the general modal account of luck against some of the problems that have been levied against MAL, specifically the Buried Treasure problem raised by Lackey (2008) and the agent causation problem as raised by Levy (2011). More successfully, the modal account offered stands up against these criticisms. For these reasons, the modal condition understood with the [TYPE] function and Lewisian semantics concerning modal distances, will be adopted to make up one half of the conditions for my account of luck. Chapter 4 will look at the second condition for an account of luck - the significance condition. The chapter will set out the reasons for adopting a significance condition at all, and some of the ways in which the condition has been articulated by Rescher (1995), Pritchard (2005) and Ballantyne (2011). All of these current views of the significance condition will be found wanting due to their inability to make sense of certain kinds of luck in specific normative domains. For example, Ballantyne's account of significance focuses on the interests of an agent, yet for certain types of moral luck, the interests of the agent are irrelevant. Instead, I propose a relativised significance condition, where the value of the event is relative to the value of the normative domain in which the luck is being ascribed. Epistemic luck requires a focus on the epistemic significance of the event for the agent, moral luck requires a focus on the moral or ethical significance of the event for the agent, and so on. This I call the kind of luck. Similar to the [TYPE] function for the modal condition for luck, the significance condition requires a [NORMATIVE DOMAIN] function where the relevant normative domain can be inserted depending on the kind of luck. This version of the significance condition will be conjoined with the modal condition as set out in Chapter 3 to form the correct general account of luck. Chapter 5 is the first chapter of the second half of the thesis that concerns applying the account of luck set out in part 1 to more specific domains of inquiry. Chapter 5 concerns moral luck, more specifically, resultant moral luck. Moral luck has traditionally been understood in terms of lack of control. This chapter looks at how Pritchard (2005) and Driver (2014) have attempted to understand moral luck using modal conditions. However, it is argued that these attempts would be more successful if we adopted the account of luck that I have offered in previous chapters. The chapter will go on to look at two possible problems that may be faced by this modal account of luck, and how it may resolve these problems. Chapter 6, the final chapter, looks at epistemic luck, specifically how the adoption of the modal account I have offered resolves a particular problem targeted at anti-luck epistemology by Ballantyne (2013). The problem, Ballantyne argues, is that given that luck requires a significance condition, the degree of significance affects the degree of luck and that the degree of luck involved in our belief formation affects whether we are in a position to know the target proposition, that the result is that degree of significance affects our ability to know. For at least some instances of this - such as the aesthetic significance that we assign to the target proposition - the result will be that non-epistemic factors that have no relevance at all whether an agent is in a position to know will (absurdly, in Ballantyne's view) affect that agent's position to know. The resolution to this problem can be found in a two part solution. The first part is to demonstrate that any degree of veritic epistemic luck results in the agent failing to know. The second is that through the relativisation of the significance condition, any type of value will not affect an agent's position to know, only the epistemic value.With these two considerations in mind, the latter of which that can only be held through the adoption of the modal account of luck I have offered, the problem may be resolved.

Full textAbstract:
This thesis aimed to investigate the cognitive underpinnings of math skills, with particular reference to cognitive, and linguistic markers, core mechanisms of number processing and environmental variables. In particular, the issue of intergenerational transmission of math skills has been deepened, comparing parents’ and children’s basic and formal math abilities. This pattern of relationships amongst these has been considered in two different age ranges, preschool and primary school children.
In the first chapter, a general introduction on mathematical skills is offered, with a description of some seminal works up to recent studies and latest findings. The first chapter concludes with a review of studies about the influence of environmental variables. In particular, a review of studies about home numeracy and intergenerational transmission is examined.
The first study analyzed the relationship between mathematical skills of children attending primary school and those of their mothers. The objective of this study was to understand the influence of mothers' math abilities on those of their children.
In the second study, the relationship between parents’ and children numerical processing has been examined in a sample of preschool children. The goal was to understand how mathematical skills of parents were relevant for the development of the numerical skills of children, taking into account children’s cognitive and linguistic skills as well as the role of home numeracy.
The third study had the objective of investigating whether the verbal and nonverbal cognitive skills presumed to underlie arithmetic are also related to reading. Primary school children were administered measures of reading and arithmetic to understand the relationships between these two abilities and testing for possible shared cognitive markers.
Finally, in the general discussion a summary of main findings across the study is presented, together with clinical and theoretical implications.

La reproduction fidèle de la locomotion humaine est une problématique d'actualité concernant les robots humanoïdes. Les travaux présentés dans ce mémoire ont pour objectif de définir une procédure permettant l'imitation par les robots humanoïdes du mouvement humain. Dans un premier temps les techniques de l'analyse du mouvement humain sont présentées. Le protocole de mesure adopté est exposé, ainsi que le calcul des angles articulaires. La problématique de la détection des évènements de contact est abordée en proposant l'adaptation des méthodes existantes pour des mouvements complexes. Les algorithmes sont validés par une série de mesures effectuées sur une trentaine de sujets sains. La deuxième partie traite de la transposition du mouvement humain aux robots. Une fois la problématique générale et le processus de transposition définis, le critère d'équilibre des robots marcheurs est présenté. A partir des données du mouvement humain capturé, les trajectoires de référence des pieds et du ZMP sont définies. Une modification de ces trajectoires est ensuite effectuée dans le cas de risque de collision entre les pieds notamment dans le cas de l'exécution d’un slalom. Finallement un algorithme de cinématique inverse, développé pour cette problématique est utilisé pour déterminer les angles articulaires du robot associés aux trajectoires de référence des pieds et du ZMP. Plusieurs applications sur les robots HOAP-3 et HPR-2 sont présentées. Les trajectoires sont validées vis-à-vis du maintien de l'équilibre grâce à des simulations dynamiques du mouvement ainsi que vis-à-vis des limites des actionneursThe true reproduction of human locomotion is a topical issue on humanoid robots. The goal of this work is to define a process to imitate the human motion with humanoid robots. In the first part, the motion capture techniques are presented. The measurement protocol adopted is exposed and the calculation of joint angles. An adaptation of three existing algorithms is proposed to detect the contact events during complex movements. The method is valided by measurements on thirty healthy subjects. The second part deals with the generation of humanoid trajectories imitating the human motion. Once the problem and the imitation process are defined, the balance criterion of walking robots is presented. Using data from human motion capture, the reference trajectories of the feet and ZMP are defined. These paths are modified to avoid collision between feet, particularly in the case of executing a slalom. Finally an inverse kinematics algorithm developed for this problem is used to determine the joint angles associated with the robot reference trajectories of the feet and ZMP. Several applications on robots HOAP-3 and HRP-2 are presented. The trajectories are validated according to the robot balance through dynamic simulations of the computed motion, and respecting the limits of actuators

L'influence de différentes méthodes de préparation de surface sur la microstructure et les propriétés électriques des contacts à base Co sur n-Ge a été étudiée. Il a été montré que les nettoyages thermiques s'accompagnent de la diffusion d'impuretés métalliques dans le substrat. Lors du recuit, ces impuretés sont piégées par la formation des germaniures de cobalt. Un nettoyage à 700°C ou une attaque au HF permettent d'éliminer l'oxyde de germanium natif à l'interface M/SC, contrairement à un nettoyage thermique à 400°C qui cependant modifie la nature chimique de l’oxyde. Pour tous les échantillons, une microstructure complexe est observée après formation des germaniures. Les échantillons présentent une augmentation de la rugosité de l'interface M/SC et la coexistence des phases Co5Ge7 et CoGe2. Après un nettoyage à 400°C, une microstructure particulière, attribuée à l'oxyde restant après "nettoyage" est observée. Dans tous les cas, le modèle thermoïonique ne suffit pas à expliquer le comportement des diodes Schottky. En particulier, les valeurs obtenues pour la constante de Richardson sont très en deçà de la valeur attendue. Par une analyse en température des hauteurs de barrières, nous avons montré la nécessité de raisonner en terme d'inhomogénéités de barrière, ces dernières étant influencées par la microstructure. De plus, un fort ancrage du niveau de Fermi est observé pour les contacts directs M/SC alors qu'il est partiellement levé par l'oxyde de germanium natif présent à l'interface M/SC. Finalement, nous avons montré que ce désencrage du niveau de Fermi est lié à la nature chimique de l’oxydeThe influence of various surface cleaning procedures on both electrical properties and microstructure of Co based n-Ge Schottky contacts has been studied. In-depth diffusion of metallic impurities into the Ge substrate has been reported after thermal pre-treatments. After germanidation, gettering of the metallic impurities by the germanide phases has been observed. While no more oxide interlayer is observed after HF etching and thermal pre-treatment at 700°C, a temperature of 400°C has been found to be not enough to remove the oxide interlayer. However, it modifies the chemical nature of the oxide interlayer. A complex microstructure is reported for all the samples after germanidation. For most of the samples, the coexistence of Co5Ge7 and CoGe2 structures and an increase of the roughness of the M/SC interface have been observed. The particular microstructure observed, after germanidation, for the sample pre-treated at 400°C has been ascribed to the remaining oxide interlayer. Whatever the pre-treatments, the behaviours of all the Schottky diodes could not be explained by the thermionic model only. This model leads to a large underestimation of the Richardson’s constant. By a detailed analysis of the temperature dependence of the Schottky barrier heights, we have pointed out the necessity to reason in term of barrier inhomogeneity, these last being strongly influenced by the microstructure. The electrical results have been explained in the framework of the Fermi level pinning concept. While a strong Fermi level pinning is observed for intimate contacts, the presence of the native Ge oxide at the M/SC interface yields a depinning of the Fermi level. However, this depinning has been found to be dependent on the chemical nature of the oxide interlayer

Full textAbstract:
The problem of free will is a problem about control and luck. If causal determinism is true, then everything we do is ultimately a matter of luck, as it is if causal determinism is false. Either way we seem to lack free will of the kind needed for moral responsibility. In this thesis a case is built for a certain type of modest incompatibilist view on free will. It is argued that it makes no difference in terms of control whether determinism or indeterminism obtains. What matters is that we have a certain kind of ownership over what we do. Causal determinism rules this out, but indeterminism does not. This has the upshot that not only does free will turn out to be compatible with luck, exposure to a certain kind of luck is actually required, for unless we are exposed to this kind of luck our actions will not be truly ours. By providing luck with a positive role this thesis invites a re-evaluation of the reasons causal determinism destroys free will, and a re-evaluation of our attitudes towards luck. In short this thesis challenges the anti-luckism that lies behind the problem of free will.

Na psicanálise, o texto freudiano Luto e melancolia constitui-se uma referência no tema do luto, a despeito da concepção sintética e enigmática de luto e de trabalho de luto que ele contém. O presente estudo tem como objetivo interrogar a concepção de luto apresentada por Freud no texto Luto e melancolia, mais especialmente no que diz respeito ao objeto do luto. Também, a partir do mesmo texto freudiano, visa a elucidar o processo de trabalho de luto e seu desdobramento em três tempos. O trabalho inicia através das representações sociais da morte na história do Ocidente e da ligação do tema da morte ao complexo paterno na obra freudiana. Evidencia a produção de clivagens do Eu no encontro com a morte e o sexo, bem como a construção da fantasia que daí deriva. Desdobra a erótica corporal através da pulsão, do amor e da identificação. Elucida a estrutura do luto no mito do pai da horda primordial no texto freudiano Totem e tabu e o luto do pai no texto Moisés e a religião monoteísta. E por fim, concebe os três tempos do trabalho de luto a partir da abordagem do tempo lógico de Lacan. _________________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT
In psychoanalysis, Freud’s text Mourning and melancholia constitutes a reference in the mourning theme, despite the brief and enigmatic conception of mourning and grief work it contains. The present study aims to interrogate the design of mourning presented by Freud in Mourning and melancholia text, more especially with regard to the object of the mourning. Likewise, from the same Freudian text, seeks to elucidate the grief work process and its unfolding in three stages. This work begins through the social representations of death in the West history and the theme of death connection to the father complex in Freud’s work. Highlights the cleavages production of Ego in the appointment with death and sex, as well as the fantasy construction that derives from this. Unfolds the erotic of body through pulse, love and identification. Elucidates the mourning structure on the father of the primordial horde myth in Freud’s Totem and Taboo text and the father mourning in Moses and monotheism text. And finally, conceives the three stages of grief work from Lacan’s logical time approach.

Full textAbstract:
The project started from finding new unexpected cultural data, aroused during a systematic investigation of Castel de Pedena high site (San Gregorio nelle Alpi, BL, Italy). This new data have strongly modified the geo-cultural scenario of North-Eastern Veneto between the XII and the IX century.
The most innovative aspect is due to the presence of archaeological materials belonging to the Luco-Laugen/Meluno-Melaun facies. We would have expected instead materials belonging to the “Protovillanova padana” facies and to the following “Protoveneta” facies.
This research has first of all deepened the cultural information of the site and its surrounding territory. It was possible to establish a relationship between alpine, pre-alpine and the lowland areas, all referring to the Luco-Laugen facies of the Central Alps. This was confirmed by comparing the data resulting from stratigraphic analysis of Veneto sites, where some materials of this cultural horizon have been recognized, differently from the cultural contexts coming from South Tirol and Trentino area.
Secondly, it was studied in more depth the characters and chronological scanning of the Luco/Laugen facies of the Central Alps. These studies should form a solid basis for the archeological correlations with the Po valley sites.
A great part of the research as been dedicated to the stratigraphic sequence for the high site of Castel de Pedena, integrated with the results of radiometric analysis and of chrono-typological study of ceramic objects and other kinds of archaeological materials, corresponding to the more recent settlement, occurred between the Late Bronze Age and the first Iron Age. In this way the principle characteristics of the settlement development have been studied, showing its structure – made of terraced steps on the slope and defense walls - and the evolutionary pattern of the principle ceramic groups found in the site.
The research has been completed with archaeometric analysis and the contributions of other specialized disciplines, showing the cultural osmosis between Luco-Laugen communities and the Po vally ones, in the more recent chronological phases of the high site of Castel de Pedena, both in ceramic and bronze production, since some bronze handmade products have been found there.
Studying the last chronological phase of the high site, belonging to the IX-VIII centuries, it was possible to find important contacts with the alpine territory, above all with the Vadena/Pfatten necropolis and also with other Trento and South Tirol settlements. Furthermore, at the end of the research, it came to light both the meeting points and the differences of the two social and political realities, the ancient venetian one and the alpine one, which were at those times already strongly distinguished.Il progetto ha preso avvio dal rinvenimento di dati nuovi e culturalmente inattesi emersi dall’indagine sistematica nel sito d’altura di Castel de Pedena (San Gregorio nelle Alpi, BL), che ha fortemente modificato l’inquadramento dell’assetto geoculturale del Veneto nord-orientale per il periodo compreso tra XII e IX secolo a.C. L’aspetto maggiormente innovativo era legato alla presenza di materiali attribuibili alla cultura Luco-Laugen/Meluno-Melaun e non, come ci si sarebbe potuti aspettare, da tracce ascrivibili alla cultura protovillanoviana padana e successivamente protoveneta. La ricerca ha quindi previsto anzitutto un approfondimento degli aspetti della connotazione culturale dell'abitato e del suo territorio di pertinenza, oltre che delle relazioni tra aree alpine, prealpine e di pianura, in relazione alla facies centro-alpina di Luco-Laugen, anche tramite il confronto cronologico-culturale, con dati da associazione stratigrafica, dei contesti di ambito veneto dove sono stati riconosciuti materiali afferenti a tale orizzonte culturale, rispetto a quelli sudtirolesi o trentini. E' stato inoltre dedicato uno spazio approfondito ai caratteri e alla scansione cronologica, con relativi studi e aggiornamenti, della facies centro-alpina, che costituisse un solido riferimento utile per le correlazioni con l'ambito padano. Un'ampia parte è stata dedicata all'analisi della sequenza stratigrafica dell'abitato, integrata ai dati delle analisi radiometriche e allo studio crono-tipologico dei materiali, ceramici e non, corrispondenti alla fase più recente dell'insediamento, compresa tra Bronzo Recente evoluto e passaggio tra Bronzo Finale e primo Ferro. In tale modo sono state poste in luce le caratteristiche principali dello sviluppo dell'insediamento non solo dal punto di vista abitativo e strutturale, avvenuto tramite la gradonatura del pendio e la realizzazione di strutture murarie difensive, ma anche sotto l'aspetto della progressione evolutiva di alcuni principali gruppi ceramici individuati. Il contributo delle indagini archeometriche e di altre discipline specialistiche ha inoltre dato completezza alla ricerca, permettendo di verficare come l'osmosi culturale tra le genti Luco/Laugen e l'ambito padano, delle fasi più recenti dell'abitato, si sia espressa non solo nella produzione ceramica, ma anche nella presenza di alcuni manufatti in bronzo. Lo studio dell'ultima fase di vita dell'abitato, di IX-VIII sec., ha permesso di rilevare importanti contatti con il territorio alpino, specialmente con la necropoli di Vadena/Pfatten e altri siti trentini e sudtirolesi, oltre che di mettere in luce, a chiusura della ricerca, i caratteri di incontro e insieme di contrapposizione tra due realtà socio-politiche, quella veneta e quella alpina, ormai fortemente diversificate.

A escolha da forma de tributação das empresas deve ocorrer no início do ano fiscal e permanece por todo o período. Como regra geral, a Contabilidade elaborada de acordo com as leis comercias e fiscais é a base para a apuração do Imposto de Renda da Pessoa Jurídica (IRPJ) e da Contribuição Social sobre o Lucro Líquido (CSLL) no regime de apuração do Lucro Real. Existem, no entanto, outras possibilidades de tributação da pessoa jurídica, tais como o Lucro Presumido, o Lucro Arbitrado e o SIMPLES NACIONAL, que, embora apresentem simplificações quanto a sua apuração (inclusive com a dispensa da escrituração contábil), não estão disponíveis para todos os contribuintes. A análise de qual forma adotar envolve, também, mais dois tributos: o Programa de Integração Social (PIS) e a Contribuição para Financiamento da Seguridade Social (COFINS). A criação do sistema de nãocumulatividade para ambos, em 2002/2004, passou a vincular sua apuração ao regime escolhido, aumentando a dificuldade da escolha. Por fim, a imposição pelo Fisco do Sistema Público de Escrituração Digital SPED, que entrará em vigor em 2009 e promete agilizar os sistemas de arrecadação e fiscalização do Governo, diminuindo os prazos dos contribuintes para correção de eventuais erros antes de sanções punitivas, é mais um fator a se considerar. Este trabalho procurou explorar as formas de tributação escolhidas pelas empresas brasileiras autorizadas a optar pelo Lucro Presumido, mediante a comparação dos tributos devidos (IRPJ, CSLL, PIS e COFINS) por esse regime e pelo do Lucro Real. Após uma revisão dos principais conceitos que envolvem as duas formas de apuração, foi realizada uma verificação do aumento ou redução na carga tributária dessas empresas, que seriam obtidos caso elas tivessem escolhido a outra forma de tributação. A importância da Contabilidade na escolha da forma de tributação e sua utilização foi amplamente discutida, inclusive com relação aos aspectos não tributários, tendo se evidenciado sua necessidade como elemento indispensável para a gestão de tributos.The choice of the companies taxation form must occur at the beginning of the fiscal year, and remains the same for the entire period. As a general rule the Accounting elaborated according to commercial and fiscal laws is the basis to assess the Corporate Income Tax (IRPJ) and the Social Contribution on Corporate Net Income (CSLL) in the Actual Profit regime. There are, however, other possibilities for corporate taxation, such as Assumed Profit, Arbitrated Profit, and SIMPLES NACIONAL, which are not available to all taxpayers, even though they simplify their assessment (including the exemption of bookkeeping). The analysis of which form to adopt also involves other two tributes: the Contribution to the Social Integration Program (PIS) and the Contribution to Social Security Financing (COFINS). The creation of the noncumulative system for both of them in 2002/2004 started to link its assessment to the regime chosen, increasing the difficulty of the choice. Finally another factor to be considered is the imposition by the Internal Revenue/National Treasury of the Public System of Digital Registration - SPED, which will be enforced in 2009, and promises to speed up the Government collection and inspection systems, reducing the stated periods for the taxpayers to correct eventual errors before punitive sanctions This paper intends to explore the taxation forms chosen by Brazilian companies authorized to choose Assumed Profit, through the comparison of the tributes due (IRPJ, CSLL, PIS, and COFINS) under this regime and the Actual Profit. After revising the main concepts involving the two forms of taxation, this work will carry out a verification of the increase or reduction in the tax burden of these companies that would be achieved in the case they had chosen another form of taxation. The importance of the Accounting in the choice of the taxation forms and its use are widely discussed, also with regards to the non-tributary aspects, evidencing its necessity as an indispensable element to manage tributes.

This paper aims to study two taxation regimes for the activities of bonds or securities securitization: taxable income and presumed profit, taking into account these two regimes as liable to be adopted for this kind of securitization. We followed a path that seeks to define the securitization concept, investigated its legal nature, identified the legal relationships established between the parties involved in the process involving securitization companies, pointing out the securitization types that basically differ for each type of credit right. Leaving this generic part behind, we segregated sections of the legal regime, using the Law Science and the Legal Dogmatic to study in depth the bonds and securities securitization companies. We faced the problem of comparing the bonds and securities security companies with the factoring companies, indispensable to challenge the Brazilian Internal Revenue Service (Receita Federal do Brasil ) Regulatory Opinion number 5/2014. We identified all the differences between the business assets security companies and the factoring companies, concluding that only their means of acquisition and the credit rights are identical. Narrowing this paper’s focus, we analyzed in a generic way the taxes levied and not levied on the bonds and securities security companies. In order to use a scientific and useful criterion to discuss these taxes, not meaning that a different one could not be capable and important to investigate the tax levying, we built up the tax levying matrix rules. This tax investigation served as a premise to go on to the purposes of this paper, which is to analyze the taxation regime of the bonds and securities security companies, specifically the way of calculating taxes under the taxable income and presumed profit regimes integrating the calculation basis of the Corporate Income Tax (IRPJ), of the Net Profit Social Contribution (CSLL), of the Social Integration Program (PIS) and of the Social Security Financing Contribution (COFINS). This thesis main point relates to the tax regimes liable to be applied by the bonds and securities security companies through exploiting the problem of the federal tax authorities classifying these companies as being a species of the factoring activity, compelling them to submit to the taxable income regime, as provided by Law 9.718/1998, article 14, bringing legal uncertainty throughout the sector. We identified that during nine years the Brazilian IRS repeatedly stated and confirmed that the bonds and security securitization companies could (faculty) adopt collecting taxes under the presumed profit regime, as opposed to the federal tax authorities understanding in relation to the classification now being mentioned. Nevertheless, in April 2014 with the issuance of Ruling Opinion 5/2014 the IRS ended up changing its opinion, ignoring its past actions, interpreting Law 9.718/1998 art. 14, sub-item VI under the premise that as of the enactment of the mentioned law the business assets or bond and security securities companies should be submitted to the Taxable Income regime. We would like to emphasize that the consequence of this change was the write up of tax assessment notices against the bond and securities security companies, that started to face legal uncertainties. Notwithstanding this move to constitute tax credits, we found out that there were unconstitutionalities on the mentioned Ruling Opinion. In light of this legal instability caused by the Federal Government organ, many bond and security securities companies migrated to Credit Rights Investment Funds (FIDC). As a kind of securitization FIDC enjoys a simplified taxation way, keeping in its essence a similarity with the acquisition and assignment of credit rights submitted to rigid and specific legal rule and thus avoiding tax surprises perpetrated by the Public Power. Finally, due to growth, to tax simplifications and to the legal and operational feasibility to use receivables securitization through FIDC, legal movements and issuance of rules seeking the securitization of the delinquent tax debt recently started throughout the country. In light of the above, we investigated the legal feasibility of this securitization, pointing out the obstacles on its legal and underlying principles that in the present format without the necessary change of the legal regime, hamper the securitization of the delinquent tax debt of the political organs
O presente estudo busca tratar de dois regimes de tributação na atividade das securitizadoras de títulos ou valores mobiliários: lucro real e lucro presumido, considerando essas duas formas como passíveis de serem adotadas por essa modalidade de securitização. Percorremos um caminho que procura definir o conceito de securitização, investigamos a sua natureza jurídica, identificamos as relações jurídicas que se formam entre as partes envolvidas no processo que envolve a atividade das securitizadoras, apontamos as modalidades de securitização, que diferem basicamente em razão do tipo de direitos creditórios. Saindo dessa parte genérica, fizemos cortes no sistema jurídico, utilizando a Ciência do Direito e a Dogmática Jurídica para se aprofundar no estudo das securitizadoras de títulos e valores mobiliários. Enfrentamos o problema da equiparação da atividade das securitizadoras de títulos e valores mobiliários com as factorings, que será imprescindível para contestarmos o disposto no Parecer Normativo n.º 5/2014 editado pela Receita Federal do Brasil. Identificamos todas as diferenças entre as securitizadoras de ativos empresariais e as factorings, concluindo que apenas a forma de aquisição e os direitos creditórios são idênticos entre eles. Estreitando o foco deste estudo, analisamos de forma genérica os tributos incidentes e não incidentes sobre a atividade das securitizadoras de títulos e valores mobiliários. Como forma de utilização de critério científico e útil para tratar desses tributos, não que outra não seja hábil e importante para se investigarem as incidências tributárias, construímos as regras-matrizes de incidência tributária. Essa investigação sobre os tributos serviu de premissa para avançarmos no objetivo deste trabalho, que é analisar os regimes de tributação na securitização de títulos e valores mobiliários, especificamente a forma de apuração de tributos no lucro real e lucro presumido, que integram a base de cálculo do IRPJ, da CSLL, do PIS e da Cofins. O ponto central desta tese refere-se aos regimes tributários passíveis de aplicação pelas securitizadoras de títulos ou valores mobiliários, explorando o problema da classificação feita pelo fisco federal da atividade dessas empresas como espécie de atividade de factoring, obrigando-as a se submeterem ao lucro real disposto no artigo 14 da Lei n.º 9.718/1998, gerando insegurança jurídica em todo o setor. Em contraponto ao entendimento do fisco federal em relação à classificação ora mencionada, identificamos que ao longo de nove anos a Receita Federal do Brasil, reiteradamente, afirmou e confirmou que as securitizadoras de títulos e valores mobiliários poderiam (faculdade) adotar o regime de recolhimento dos tributos pelo lucro presumido. Contudo, em abril de 2014, com a edição do Parecer Normativo n.º 5/2014, a Fazenda acabou por mudar de opinião, ignorando os seus atos pretéritos, interpretando o disposto no inciso VI do artigo 14 da Lei n.º 9.718/1998, sob a premissa de que as securitizadoras de ativos empresariais ou de valores mobiliários deveriam se submeter ao regime do lucro real desde a edição da referida lei. Destacamos que a consequência dessa mudança foi a lavratura de autos de infração em face das securitizadoras de títulos e valores mobiliários, passando a submeter a incertezas jurídicas. Não obstante esse movimento de constituição de créditos tributários, constatamos a existência de inconstitucionalidades no referido Parecer Normativo. Em razão dessa instabilidade jurídica provocada pelo órgão da União, muitas securitizadoras de títulos e valores mobiliários migraram para os Fundos de Investimento em Direitos Creditórios (FIDC). Tratando-se de uma espécie de securitização, o FIDC possui simplificada forma de tributação, mantém na essência similaridade no processo de aquisição e cessão de direitos creditórios, submete-se a regras jurídicas rígidas e específicas, evitando, com isso, as surpresas fiscais praticadas pelo Poder Público. Por fim, em razão do crescimento, da simplificação fiscal e da viabilidade jurídica e operacional de se praticar a securitização de recebíveis por meio do FIDC, iniciaram-se recentemente no País movimentos jurídicos e edição de regras objetivando a securitização da dívida ativa. Diante disso, investigamos a viabilidade jurídica dessa securitização, apontando os obstáculos legais e principiológicos, que de forma atual, sem a mudança necessária no sistema jurídico, impedem a securitização da dívida ativa dos entes políticos

Luck egaiitarianism is an interpretation of equality that distinguishes between inequalities for which individuals should be held responsible (because they are the result of their own choices) and inequalities for which individuals should not be held esponsible (because they are the result of brute luck). This thesis focuses on the question of how luck egalitarians should draw the line between luck and choice, given die influence of luck on the choices people make.

Full textAbstract:
This thesis investigates whether luck egalitarianism can provide a cogent and coherent interpretation of educational equality. Historically, the belief that each child should receive an equally good education has exerted a strong influence on policy makers and thus on educational practice, and this despite the vagueness of the egalitarian formula. More recently however, the ideal has been undermined in practice by the rise of neoliberalism and in theory by a number of thinkers advocating other principles of educational justice. But it is vital to be clear about what each child is owed because of the profound effects of education on a person’s life prospects. The motivation for this work is therefore to determine whether educational equality can be rescued as a desirable and animating ideal of educational justice. In order to achieve this, I examine luck egalitarianism, a theory of distributive justice that has its origins in the work of John Rawls, but is now the major rival to his account of egalitarian justice. I probe at the fundamental moral intuitions underpinning luck egalitarianism and how it brings together the morally potent ideas of equality, luck and choice. I argue that these are of relevance for the education each child is owed and I propose a luck egalitarian conception of educational equality, argue that it is a cogent interpretation of egalitarian justice, and conclude that a luck egalitarian conception shows educational equality to be an ideal that is relevant, coherent and what morally matters most for justice in education.
I describe luck egalitarianism as resting on three basic moral beliefs: that distributive equality is a fundamental demand of justice; that luck undermines fair equality; and that a person’s genuine choices can sometimes, under certain background conditions, render some otherwise objectionable inequalities not unjust. I then examine whether these three beliefs are compatible with each other and what, if anything, links them. Next, I consider luck egalitarianism’s status as a theory of distributive justice and argue that far from this being a weakness, as Elizabeth Anderson (1999) has notably argued, it is a strength of the position. But to appreciate this it needs to be seen that luck egalitarianism makes no claim to being all of justice and that the equalisandum of equality is complex and egalitarianism is intrinsically pluralist in nature (with a particular understanding of what is meant by pluralist). I consider too whether it is a mistake to say that inequalities that are largely due to luck can really be thought of as unjust. Thomas Nagel (1997) has argued that it is merely misfortune, unless the result of deliberate actions or social structures for which someone is responsible. I reject that position and argue that no one has to be responsible for an inequality for it to be unjust.
Having interrogated luck egalitarianism and found it to be a sound account of egalitarian distributive justice, I turn to looking at whether it can illuminate our understanding of educational equality. Educational equality is often interpreted in terms of equality of educational opportunity. I look particularly at a conception of equality of educational opportunity, strongly influenced by Rawls, that has been thoughtfully and carefully articulated by Harry Brighouse and Adam Swift (2008). I find their conception powerful, but flawed, and argue that a luck egalitarian conception can account for the appeal of their conception, but is an advance on it. I end by looking at a specific question of educational justice to test the luck egalitarian conception – is there anything inegalitarian about ability grouping? I conclude that, while still needing to have its implications worked out in full, particularly as regards choice, a luck egalitarian conception provides a compelling account of educational equality and reasserts that equality matters for justice in education.

Full textAbstract:
This thesis shows that exploitation can arise from a just background, via just steps, when we exercise our moral rights. The theory rests on the idea that exploitation can arise via a special category of luck, which I call socially constructed luck. By taking into account what John Rawls calls background justice and what G.A. Cohen refers to as an accumulation problem, I argue that socially constructed luck is brought about through a cumulative process of people freely exercising their moral rights in the pursuit of their own conception of the good life. Unless the negative effects of this type of luck are offset, exploitative interactions can arise where people have no reasonable alternative but to enter a particular transaction. Socially constructed luck can play a direct role in privileging some individuals at the expense of others and allows for the extraction of surplus benefits. Importantly, by showing that luck egalitarianism should be understood within a conception of exploitation, the thesis not only provides a deeper understanding of how the luck egalitarian and relational egalitarian views align, but also justifies the introduction of a basic right to a reasonable alternative.

Luck egalitarianism is the view that justice requires that we hold people accountable for the choices that they make but not the circumstances that they find themselves in. My aim in this thesis is to reject luck egalitarianism. My argument builds on the recent critique of luck egalitarianism by Elizabeth Anderson. Anderson rejects luck egalitarianism in favor of a view she calls â democratic equality.â The aim of democratic equality is to create a community in which citizens relate to one another as equals. This requires, among other things, that we provide citizens with the necessary capabilities and functionings needed in order for them to function as free and equal citizens. In this thesis I argue that Andersonâ s critique of luck egalitarianism, although successful against the standard luck egalitarian view, does not undermine a weaker version of luck egalitarianism. This position â which I call moderate luck egalitarianism â claims that we ought to apply the choice/circumstance distinction always and only when doing so does not compromise the aims of democratic equality. This is because it is always unfair, according to luck egalitarians, when some people are worse off than others through no fault of their own. Since Andersonâ s view does not correct for this, we need to combine the aims of democratic equality and luck egalitarianism in the name of fairness. I argue, however, that this is not necessary. Not all inequalities that are the result of peopleâ s unchosen circumstances are unfair or unjust; inequalities in income and wealth are unfair only to the extent that they inhibit the ability of individuals to function as free and equal citizens. Thus, luck egalitarians have given us no reason to conjoin the aims of democratic equality and luck egalitarianism: democratic equality suffices.Master of Arts

Assumindo esta linhagem, o presente relatório tem por objetivo analisar a relevância que é dada ao lucro street, dado que este é frequentemente utilizado pelas empresas, como forma de divulgação de informação. Para o efeito, estudamos um conjunto de empresas na Alemanha e França, com o objetivo de perceber e responder à pergunta de partida: “qual das duas formas de lucro tem mais impacto, Street ou GAAP?”. Entendemos, também, analisar os itens excluídos do cálculo do lucro street, com a finalidade de avaliar o seu impacto nos resultados apresentados. Os resultados obtidos revelam que as empresas e os stakeholders, continuam a atribuir relevância ao lucro street, por acreditarem que o erro de previsão é mais reduzido em relação ao GAAP. Além disso, procuramos testar o efeito dos itens especiais (despesas não recorrentes) ao longo do período 2008-2016. Os nossos resultados sugerem que a tendência é, cada vez mais, eliminar estes itens, porque, por um lado, o lucro street tem assente a sua exclusão e, por outro, os analistas consideram que os itens não recorrentes, pela sua natureza, não devem ser incluídos no cálculo do lucro.

Full textAbstract:
My thesis engages with the question about what it means to treat each other as equals, as this has been approached by luck and social egalitarians. Luck egalitarians maintain that luck inequalities should be equalized, while inequalities that are due to people’s choices should be left as they stand. This further implies that the scope of egalitarian justice is universal. Social egalitarians criticize luck egalitarianism for failing to provide a proper understanding of the value of equality. Equality is a relational ideal regarding how people should relate to each other as social and political equals, which properly understood requires that they relate to each other in a nondominating way. Given this, they argue, first, that luck egalitarian principles of justice violate the requirements of non-domination, since responsibility may conflict with the latter; and secondly, that strongly egalitarian duties are generated in virtue of morally significant forms of existing relationships, thus the scope of egalitarian justice is not universal. In my dissertation, I argue that Dworkin—who has traditionally been considered to be a luck egalitarian—shares the two social egalitarian commitments, namely that equality is a relational value and that strong egalitarian duties are generated in virtue of morally significant forms of existing relationships. Given this I defend two theses, both of which constitute an original contribution to our better understanding of the demands of social and political equality: a) Dworkin’s theory of equality properly understood is not only attentive to the social egalitarian requirement of non-domination, but it provides a better understanding of it precisely because it builds upon a conception of personal and consequential responsibility that is constitutive of non-domination. b) I challenge both Dworkin’s and social egalitarians’ view of the scope of egalitarian justice by arguing that properly understood the ideal of social and political equality tells us that we should relate to each other as equals, not that existing relationships are necessary for justice-based duties to be triggered.

Full textAbstract:
Questo elaborato ha la finalità di analizzare la figura di Lucio Fontana ceramista, attraverso un’analisi storico-critica dei tre temi principali trattati – figurativo, spaziale e sacro – e delle collaborazioni in ambito architettonico. Nel primo capitolo viene delineata la figura di Lucio Fontana scultore nel suo complesso, al fine porla a confronto con quella coeva di ceramista. Quest’ultima viene tracciata in maniera generale nel secondo capitolo, soprattutto per quanto riguarda la sua attività nella Manifattura Mazzotti ad Albissola ed il breve soggiorno a Sèvres, attraverso un’analisi delle mostre e delle esposizioni monografiche tenute in particolare a Milano. Nel terzo capitolo vengono approfondite la serie di ceramiche a carattere figurativo, divise in nature morte e temi marini realizzate negli ultimi anni Trenta e la predilezione per i pagliacci, le maschere e le battaglie realizzate su cui si concentra dopo il ritorno dall’Argentina. Il quarto capitolo, dopo una breve parentesi sul movimento spaziale e sulla descrizione dei Manifesti, ha invece la finalità di esaminare le ceramiche a tema spaziale, quel vaso ciclo di tavolette, vasi o piatti, intitolate, come le coeve opere su tela, Concetti spaziali. Nel quinto capitolo vengono prese in considerazione le opere a carattere religioso, quali, la V Porta per il Duomo di Milano, le tre versioni della Via Crucis – una in ceramica policroma, una in ceramica bianca e l’ultima in terracotta – l’Apparizione del Sacro Cuore in San Fedele, e Pala della Vergine Assunta, nonché le singole realizzazioni su questo tema. L’ultimo capitolo ha lo scopo di analizzare quelle opere in ceramiche che Fontana realizza in collaborazione o su committenza di architetti.
