Thesis (M.B.A.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Sloan School of Management, 2001.Includes bibliographical references (p. 91-92).
The Spanish public pension system is currently based on the pay as you go (PA YOO) principle. This thesis examines the current structure of this public system and its financial viability in the face of expected demographic changes. First, demographic and macroeconomic models were created extending out to 2050 and, based on them, the finances of the system were estimated assuming that the current regulations would remain largely unchanged. The simulations indicate that the system will show small surpluses for the next years followed by an alarming deterioration beyond 2020, mainly driven by demographic factors such as increasing life expectancy and the reduction in fertility rate observed in the last two decades. The baseline demographic and macroeconomic scenario results in a projected deficit of about 7% of GDP by 2045. This outlook includes a reduction of unemployment and an increase in labor force participation within reasonable limits. It is also shown that high immigration, fertility and productivity growth, again, within reasonable limits, while improving the financial outlook, do not resolve the issue. Without significant reforms, the system will be faced with a reduction in benefits and/or an increase in the payroll-tax by the second quarter of this century. The model is further used to test the effectiveness of potential reforms. We conclude that a permanent solution could be supported on three pillars: 1. The creation of a Pension Fund with the surpluses of the PAYOO system and a creative investment policy such as that recommended by Modigliani et al. 2. The contribution of the prospective surpluses from the unemployment system (INEM) to the fund during a transitory period. 3. Reforms in the pension calculating procedures that will foster participation in the labor force and eliminate some of the distortions introduced by the current system. These reforms would maintain financial viability without having to raise the payroll-tax. Furthermore, the tax could be reduced gradually beyond 2045. Additionally, this reform would combine advantages from funded pension systems, such as deepening of the capital stock and consolidation of the financial markets, with those of PAYOO schemes, such as their redistributive aspects and "defined benefit" character.

The main theme of this thesis is judicial reform program in Ethiopia. It examines the three basic issues which are central to the administration of justice in Ethiopia, namely efficieny, access to justice as well as accountability and independence. In spite of the wider scope of the reform efforts in Ethiopia this thesis has, on purpose, focused on these concepts not only because they are in many respects interrelated but also because they account for a bigger part of the problems that are faced by the justice system in the country.

Pełny tekst źródłaStreszczenie:
Social mix can be observed in many post-reform Chinese cities, yet the topic has so far remained scarcely researched. Using central Shanghai as a focus, this research asks how socially mixed neighbourhoods have emerged, what is their internal structure, and how have locally-based social interactions been affected by the emergence of social mix. Based on a neighbourhood of 5 housing estates and other relevant examples, this study shows that mixed neighbourhoods have emerged from an unplanned and uncoordinated interplay among new market-driven commodity housing developments, counter-market retention mechanisms on traditional estates, government-led socially-orientated housing projects, residents’ resistance to redevelopment, and the lingering socialist legacy of welfare housing and unclear property rights. Significant differences were found in residents’ socioeconomic attributes, living conditions, tenure and housing expenditure between the traditional, new middle-income, and new upmarket housing. The process of housing redevelopment and the creation of social mix have diminished locally-based social interactions. Residents’ intra-estate interaction is the strongest in traditional estates, lower in the middle-income estate and minimal in upmarket estates. The level of inter-estate interaction in the mixed neighbourhood is weak. The emergence of social mix has brought about a divergence in lifestyles and lifeworlds among the changed set of residents, which is reflected in the spheres of mobility, residential stability, shopping, and children’s education. The level of inter-estate interaction has reduced from the past when the neighbourhood was more socially homogenous. Findings suggest that social mix and a weakening of local social interaction will likely continue, and these will demand more scrutiny considering China’s development agenda on social harmony. Findings here concur with Western studies on mixed communities that social mix does not lead to social mixing. New policies and programmes to foster social interaction should be explored.

The U.S. social security system faces funding pressure due to the aging of the population. This dissertation examines the welfare cost of social security reform and social security policy uncertainty under rational expectations and under learning. I provide an overview of the U.S. social security system in Chapter I.
In Chapter II, I construct an analytically tractable two-period OLG model with capital, social security, and endogenous government debt. I demonstrate the existence of steady states depends on social security parameters. I demonstrate a saddle-node bifurcation of steady states numerically, and demonstrate a transcritical bifurcation analytically. I show that if a proposed social security reform is large enough, or if the probability of reform is high enough, the economy will converge to a steady state.
In Chapter III, I develop a three-period lifecycle model. The model is inherently forward looking, which allows for more interesting policy analysis. With three periods, the young worker's saving-consumption decision depends on her expectation of future capital. This forward looking allows analysis of multi-period uncertainty. Analysis in the three-period model suggests that policy uncertainty may have lasting consequences, even after reform is enacted.
In Chapter IV, I develop two theories of bounded rationality called life-cycle horizon learning and finite horizon life-cycle learning. In both models, agents use adaptive expectations to forecast future aggregates, such as wages and interest rates. This adaptive learning feature introduces cyclical dynamics along a transition path, which magnify the welfare cost of changes in policy and policy uncertainty. I model policy uncertainty as a stochastic process in which reform takes place in one of two periods as either a benefit cut or a tax increase. I find the welfare cost of this policy uncertainty is less than 0.25% of period consumption in a standard, rational expectations framework. The welfare cost of policy uncertainty is larger in the learning models; the worst-off cohort in the life-cycle horizon learning model would be willing to give up 1.98% of period consumption to avoid policy uncertainty.

Pełny tekst źródłaStreszczenie:
In the wake of the First World War, reformers across the Western world questioned laissez-faire liberalism, the self-oriented and market-driven ruling doctrine of the nineteenth century. This philosophy was blamed, variously, for the war, for industrialisation and for urbanisation; for a way of life shorn of any meaning beyond getting and keeping; for the too great faith in materialism and in science; and for the loss of a higher, transcendent meaning that gave a unifying altruistic or spiritual purpose to individual existence and to society as a whole. For many, the cure to these ills lay in reforming the liberal social framework in ways that made it more fulfilling to the whole person and that strengthened ties between individuals. Dartington Hall was an outstanding practical example of this impulse to promote holistic, integrated living. It was a well-financed, internationally-minded social and cultural experiment set up on an estate in South Devon in 1925 by American heiress Dorothy Elmhirst (née Whitney) and her second husband, Leonard, son of a Yorkshire squire-parson. The Elmhirsts' project for redressing the effects of laissez-faire liberalism had two components. Instead of being treated as atomised individuals in the capitalist market, participants at Dartington were to achieve full self-realisation through a 'life in its completeness' that incorporated the arts, education and spirituality. In addition, through their active participation in running the community, they were to demonstrate how integrated democracy could bring about the perfection of individuals and the progress of society as a whole. The Elmhirsts hoped that Dartington would provide a globally applicable model for a better way of life. This thesis is a close study of Dartington's interlinked constellation of experiments in education, the arts, agriculture and social organisation - experiments that can only be understood by tracing them back to their shared roots in the idea of 'life in its completeness'. At the same time, it explores how Dartington's philosophy and trajectory illuminate the wider reform landscape. The Elmhirsts' community echoed and cross-pollinated with other schemes for social improvement in Britain, Europe, America and India, as well as feeding into the broad social democratic project in Britain. Dartington's evolution from an independent, elite-led reform project to one split between state-led and communitarian reform matched the trajectory of other such enterprises begun in interwar Britain, making it a bellwether of changes in reformist thinking across the century.

Mestrado em Ciências ActuariaisThis thesis examines the Malawi pension fund reform using an integrated simulation model. The aim is to explore why the Malawi government moved from Pay as you go (PAYG) system to define contribution (DC) system. Malawi is a relatively young country and its pension schemes are deficient in design, financing, execution and administration. Malawi has persistent macroeconomic fluctuations and an unstable financial sector that make effective pension fund management challenging. Also there are high inflation rates and politically motivated low-yield investment loans. The thesis assumes that in Malawi an average person retires by 50 years and the maximum age of death is 70. The average starting wage ranges from 65,000-75,000 Mk. The contribution rate is 15% of payroll with a transaction cost of 5% of wages. The common investment strategy is a 50-50-0-0-0 approach, i.e. 50% of assets are allocated to bank deposits and government bonds respectively. In addition a risk return analysis is employed to test the portfolio riskiness. The test include the Sharpe ratio, the Jensen measure and the Treynor measure. It was observed following the simulation tests that replacement rates are higher when retirement age rises to 60 or 65, but retiring at 50 had very low replacement rates. Meaning, pensioner can get favourable retirement income when he/she retires at 65 but this is a problem since life expectancy is 54 years. The portfolio risk test indicated very low results meaning low risks. This is as a result of allocating the funds in less risky assets i.e. government bonds which have low investments yield trickling down to low pensions. To improve the current pension system, Malawi needs to redesign its pension system to tackle the life expectancy problem, diversify pension fund portfolios to achieve a high and stable return, and invest in the economy in order to have a stable macro-economy that can protect the real value of pension assets.
Esta tese examina o fundo de pensão de reforma do Malawi usando um modelo de simulação integrada. O objetivo é explorar por que o governo do Malawi passou do sistema Pay as you go (repartição ) para um sistema de contribuição definida (capitalização). Malawi é um país relativamente jovem e os seus regimes de pensões são deficientes em design, financiamentos, execução e administração. Malawi tem flutuações macroeconômicas persistentes e um sector financeiro instável que fazem a gestão eficaz de fundos de pensões desafiante. Além disso, existem altas taxas de inflação e politicamente motivadas empréstimos de investimento de baixo rendimento. A tese parte do princípio de que no Malawi uma pessoa média se aposenta aos 50 anos e de que a idade máxima de morte é de 70 . O salário médio inicial varia de 65,000-75,000 Mk. A taxa de contribuição é de 15% do salário, com um custo de transação de 5% dos salários. A estratégia comum de investimento é uma abordagem 50-50-0-0-0 , ou seja, 50% dos activos são alocados para os depósitos bancários e títulos do governo, respetivamente. Além disso, uma análise de retorno de risco é utilizada para testar o grau de risco da carteira. O teste inclui o índice de Sharpe, a medida Jensen e a medida Treynor. Observou-se nos ensaios de simulação que as taxas de substituição são mais elevados quando a idade da reforma sobe para 60 ou 65 anos, mas se a reforma for aos 50 anos obtêm-se taxas de substituição muito baixas. Ou seja, o pensionista pode obter uma pensão favorável quando se aposenta aos 65 anos , mas existe um problema, já que a expectativa média de vida é de 54 anos. O teste de risco da carteira dá resultados muito baixos indicando baixo risco. Este é o resultado da alocação dos recursos em ativos de menor risco, ou seja, títulos do governo, produzindo pensões baixas. Para melhorar o actual sistema de pensões, Malawi precisa redesenhar o seu sistema de pensões para enfrentar o problema da expectativa de vida, diversificar carteiras dos fundos de pensões para conseguir um retorno alto e estável, e investir na economia, a fim de ter uma macroeconomia estável, que pode proteger o valor real dos ativos de pensões.

This thesis considers Quaker social reform activism in England from 1780 – 1870 and explores the underlying motivations of those involved. An industrialising British society had given rise to major economic and social changes, resulting in rising poverty and crime. This in turn led to an interest by the middle and upper classes, of which Quakers were members, in reforming the morals of society and ensuring the transmission of middle-class values to create a civil society. The extent to which Quakers were involved with this moral reformation is explored, along with examining how integral their religious doctrine was to their involvement. Quaker humanitarianism is also considered in order to show that Quaker reform activism was informed not only by their theology, but also by their overriding concern with the welfare of all human beings. A growing interest in the well-being of others began to emerge in the early nineteenth century and Quakers were at the forefront of this growing humanitarianism. Quakers also held a strong belief in the primacy of the individual, with everyone being considered of equal worth. This notion of equality informed Quaker actions and led to the incorporation of very early human rights principles into their activism. The areas of reform investigated in this thesis for Quaker motivations are education, capital punishment and prison reform, poor relief, the abolition of slavery, and the treatment of Indigenous peoples in British colonies.
The historiography of nineteenth-century social reform movements has mostly neglected the Quaker contribution in this area and this thesis adds Quakers back onto the historical stage as subjects in their own right. The primary sources accessed for this thesis include reports and minutes from Quaker committees and organisations, along with interdenominational organisations that had a high percentage of Quaker membership. One Quaker journal in particular has also been utilised as another means of exploring Quaker thoughts and actions, as well as personal Quaker diaries and letters. These sources indicate that Quakers were integral and influential participants in reform activism, and not merely peripheral players as argued by some historians.
This thesis argues that Quakers were not a homogenous group, but a group with divergent beliefs and practices that played out in different ways. This thesis also argues that the notions of moral reform and humanitarianism/human rights in the nineteenth century were not rigid concepts, but were interchangeable depending on time, place, and context. Quakers took up the rhetoric of the middle-classes in relation to moral reform, but their actions also indicate that the human rights of others were often an overriding concern. This thesis positions Quakers as early human rights activists who fought for the rights of all individuals, underpinned by their religious understandings of the equality of all human beings.

Jag har i detta arbete försökt belysa några uppfattningar ledning, personal och elever på en skola har rörande en reform där en gymnasieskola går från ett begränsat antal datorer till en dator per elev. Skolan i fråga befann sig vid undersökningens genomförande i reformens första skede, vilket innebar att det endast var en tredjedel av eleverna som dittills fått sina datorer. Undersökningen har utförts genom intervjustudier med 12 informanter. Dessa studier analyserades sedan genom kvalitativ intervjuanalys, vilken går ut på att lyfta ut de uppfattningar som framgår i intervjuerna formulerade i olika kategorier. Uppfattningarna har sedan jämförts med varandra samt med annan forskning på området.Resultatet undersökningen visar på många likheter mellan den undersökta skolan och andra skolor med en dator per elev. Något som framgår är att mottagandet av reformen till största del är positivt och att man genom att göra det till en pedagogisk satsning, i stället för en teknisk sådan, kunnat erbjuda personalen ett stort utbud av fortbildningar. Detta har lett till att samtliga intervjuade lärare börjat förändra sitt sätt att undervisa för att bättre använda sig av de nya verktygen. Brister som framgår i reformarbetet är att lärarna inte alltid ges tillräckligt med utrymme för att tillgodogöra sig fortbildningen och att elever och lärare uppfattar en oförmåga att begränsa elevernas användande av sociala medier och annan underhållning på lektionstid som ett stort problem. Detta visar sig vara ett orosmoment på många skolor med en dator per elev (Unos uno, 2013a). Man framhåller i forskning och från informanterna att det krävs satsningar från skolan i form av datoretikett eller annan reglering för att överkomma problemet.Något som också kan behöva utvecklas på skolan är det kollegiala samarbetet vilket av skolutvecklingsforskning framhålls som ytterst viktigt för att reformer ska bli lyckade. Som det ser ut för tillfället sker majoriteten av samarbete lärare emellan på det sätt som av Blossing (2003) benämner särbokultur och Hargreaves (1998) kallar för en balkaniserad skola.Slutligen ska det tilläggas att reformarbetet fortfarande är i ett tidigt skede och att det går att förklara många av de brister som framkommer i mitt resultat med just detta. Detta gör dock inte att bristerna försvinner, utan detta är någonting man kommer att ha möjlighet att ta itu med så snart man har resurser att göra så.

Pełny tekst źródłaStreszczenie:
This thesis contributes a rich empirical analysis of urban water governance in Delhi, with particular attention to informality, groundwater and reforms. My research aims to develop understanding of the relationships between reforms, under both private sector management and a new progressive government, and existing informal water arrangements, particularly groundwater use, which households rely on in the absence of adequate public sector supply. I draw on interviews with 150 residents, as well as water suppliers, project officials, government staff, politicians and party workers over 18 months of multi-sited research in South Delhi’s unauthorised colonies and urban villages. I use the idea of ‘informal infrastructures’ or ‘infrastructural informality’ connects my empirical research across different sites and scales. Bringing ideas from the literature on informality and infrastructures together under this framing offers modifications to the ways that ‘informality’ and ‘infrastructures’ are often understood and used. I use informality in this way ‘as a method’ to focus on the contingently enacted, materially and socially constituted character of various infrastructure processes. I analyse the informal governance and politics of water supply at three difference sites and scales. Within Delhi’s government network at an all-city level I note the formally and informally differentiated nature of the network and the challenges of knowledge and control of it. Outside of the piped network, I examine the decentralised infrastructures of tubewells and water tankers, primarily in the South Delhi areas of Sangam Vihar and Deoli. These decentralised supply modes are socially embedded in systems of party politics, caste and land-ownership with a range of opportunities for discretion, patronage and misallocation. They illustrate the connection and contrasts between informality in different resources, such as land and water, and infrastructures. I then examine an additional layer of urban water governance, in a Public Private Partnership (PPP) for urban water reform, in a zone around the Malviya Nagar area, also in South Delhi. I argue that the complexity of India’s urban social hydrology, even in wealthy areas, has been underestimated by this initiative, and that despite an evolution of the PPP model concerns over the project’s equity and viability remain. The high level of informality across different infrastructural systems in my research sites suggests the coexistence of a submerged ‘technopolitics’ operating through bureaucratic and technical modes of governance, with both overt and covert uses of intercession, personalisation and force. The study makes contributions to knowledge in the following areas: informal urban water supply in India, particularly in unauthorised colonies and urban villages, in a region of high groundwater use, its relationship to water supply reforms from both government and a multinational public-private partnership.

Debating over efficiency-enhancing but inequality-increasing reforms accounts for the routine business of democratic institutions. Fernandez and Rodrik (1991) hold that anti-reform bias can be attributed to individual-specific uncertainty regarding the distribution of gains and losses resulting from a reform. In this paper, we experimentally demonstrate that anti-reform bias arising from uncertainty is mitigated by social preferences. We show that, paradoxically, many who stand to lose from reforms vote in favor because they value efficiency,
while many who will potentially gain from reforms oppose them due to inequality aversion. (authors' abstract)Series: Department of Economics Working Paper Series

This paper examines the effects of social capital in the lives of low-income single mothers and how it intersects with the goals of the Personal Responsibility Act (PRA). These explicit goals are to decrease reliance on public assistance through work and marriage; the implicit goals are to enhance social capital by increasing the trust, norms, and values that are evidenced by work and marriage. However, low-income single mothers are faced with limited repositories of social capital, which leaves them in a legislated quagmire. Tested here is the hypothesis that social capital impacts marriage, stable employment, and TANF use. The findings indicate that social capital impacts stable employment and economic stability in low-income single mothers, but it does not increase the likelihood of marriage. Further research that examines how social capital intersects with race and class will shed additional light on the efficacy of policy initiatives that focus on social capital reinforcement in low income female-headed families.

This research is dedicated to the study of State reformation in Brazil in the period from 1995 to 2002, carried out from strains on Country adaptation to contemporary capitalism dynamics. It has at aim to understand reorganization of public administration in Brazil inside logics of State Reformation implanted during the studied period. With basis on theoretical and empirical references, are discussed the actions concerned to process of Brazilian public administration reconfiguration and, therefore, of civil service as well as the resources limitations in the period, especially in the Universidade Federal de Goiás ((UFG) - Goias Federal University. The study discusses particularly the actions concerned to administration reform, to civil servants Social Welfare reformation and resources limitations policy to Higher Education federal institutions. First, this research is characterized by an accurate bibliographical revision about the theme, looking for making explicit the socioeconomic and political determinations on the basis of capitalist State reformation, as well as its theoretical references, to understand the economic and ideological foundations of the reforms carried out during that period. In a second moment, the study intended to make clear, by means of documental analysis, how the administration reform, the Social Welfare of civil servants reformation, and the resources limitation policy have reflected over UFG. The data allow to affirm that the implantation of the neoliberal reform of Brazilian State reflected in a significant way over the administration of UFG at the extent that both social Welfare of civil servants and administration reforms as well as the limitation of resources destined to the university have generated a shortage of servants and finances to face the existence of that institution while an important public service answerable for federal public higher education in the State of Goiás, Brazil.
A presente dissertação é voltada para o estudo da reforma do Estado no Brasil no período de 1995 a 2002, desencadeada a partir das pressões de organismos internacionais como Banco Mundial e Fundo Monetário Internacional- FMI, para a adaptação do país à dinâmica do capitalismo contemporâneo. Tem o objetivo de compreender o processo da reorganização da administração pública no Brasil na lógica da reforma do Estado implantada no período. Discute, com base em referências teóricas e empíricas, os reflexos das ações do processo de reconfiguração da administração pública brasileira e, por conseguinte, do serviço público, bem como do contingenciamento de recursos no período de 1995 a 2002, em especial na Universidade Federal de Goiás (UFG). Discute, em especial, as ações atinentes à reforma administrativa, à reforma da previdência social do servidor público e ao contingenciamento de recursos para as instituições federais de ensino superior (IFES), no período de 1995 a 2002. A pesquisa caracteriza-se, primeiro, por uma revisão bibliográfica acurada sobre a temática buscando explicitar as determinações socioeconômicas e políticas que fundamentaram o processo de reforma do Estado capitalista, bem como seu referencial teórico, com a compreensão dos fundamentos econômico-ideológicos do processo das reformas realizadas no período estudado, com destaque ao processo de globalização. Em segundo, tenta evidenciar, por meio de análise documental, como a reforma administrativa, a reforma da previdência do setor público e o contingenciamento de recursos se expressaram na Universidade Federal de Goiás. Os dados permitem afirmar que a implantação da reforma neoliberal do Estado brasileiro refletiu-se de maneira significativa na administração da Universidade Federal de Goiás, na medida em que tanto a reforma da previdência dos servidores públicos e a reforma administrativa quanto o contingenciamento dos recursos financeiros a ela destinados geraram um déficit de pessoal e de recursos financeiros para fazer face à própria existência dessa instituição como importante serviço público responsável pelo ensino superior público federal no Estado de Goiás.

Mestrado em Ciências ActuariaisVárias projeções da evolução do sistema de Segurança Social em Portugal indicam que está faltando a sustentabilidade em sua forma atual, daí a necessidade de fazer correções a esta tendência. Em contraste algumas evidências sugerem que o Sistema de Segurança Social em Chile está desfrutando de sustentabilidade. A fim de contribuir para o debate nacional sobre a forma como estes pazes deve ter lugar, uma visão sobre as características de ambos: o sistema de fundos de pensão Português e do modelo chileno será discutido, destacando seus pontos fortes e fracos que nos permitam fazer uma análise custo / benefício para a transição do atual sistema de Português para um sistema mais parecido com o chileno.
Several Projections of the Social Security System evolution in Portugal indicate it's lacking of sustainability in its present form, hence the need to make corrections to this trend. In contrast some evidence suggests that the Social Security System in Chile is enjoying sustainability. In order to contribute to the national discussion on the way these amends should take place, an insight into the characteristics of both: the Portuguese pension fund system and the Chilean model will be discussed, highlighting their strengths and weaknesses that will allow us to do a cost/benefit analysis for the transition of the current Portuguese system to a system more similar to the Chilean.

COORDENAÇÃO DE APERFEIÇOAMENTO DO PESSOAL DE ENSINO SUPERIORNeste trabalho abordam-se questões relativas a como a noção de Inserção Social tem sido interpretado pelos profissionais do Campo da Assistência em Saúde Mental. Inicialmente, é feita uma apresentação da formação do Campo Social e das mudanças que nele têm ocorrido a partir das últimas décadas. A nova questão social que é a exclusão social é apresentada, mas também o contrato social e a cidadania que lhes fazem contraponto. A partir desta realidade introduz-se o Campo da Saúde Mental, sua constituição, e suas questões de base, a tutela, periculosidade e cuidado. Em seguida, a discussão é trazida para o contexto brasileiro e discute-se a Reforma Psiquiátrica Brasileira, forma mais atual do Campo da Assistência em Saúde Mental,e como se pensa a Inserção Social em seu contexto. Finaliza-se com a apresentação do percurso feito para se constituir uma Rede Municipal de Assistência em Saúde Mental.
In this work some of the questions related to how the Social Insertion notion has been used by the professionals on the Psychiatric Reform Field. First, a presentation of the Social Field constitution and the changes that have happened in it on the past decades is presented. The new social question which is the social exclusion is presented, and also the social contract and citizenship which oppose it.Based on that reality, the Mental Health Field is introduced, its constitution and its basic questions: dangerousness, tutelage and the care. Then, the discussion is presented about the Brazilian context and the Brazilian Psychiatric Reform, the Mental Health Field's new face, and how the Social Insertion on the former context has been thought. Finally, a presentation of the paths that have been followed so that a local Mental Health Help Net is presented.

Desde mediados de 1997 se ha implementado una reforma en la seguridad social en salud conel objetivo de mejorar la eficiencia en el sector, elevar la calidad de los servicios y extender lacobertura de la seguridad social a aquellos sectores poblacionales no cubiertos, todo dentro de unesquema de solidaridad y equidad. Sin embargo, después de más de tres años de su implementación,el sistema está aún lejos de cumplir sus objetivos. Las actuales estadísticas muestran que muchosperuanos no cuentan con un seguro de salud y que el actual esquema Público-Privado no es losuficientemente amplio como para cubrir las necesidades de la población, especialmente los máspobres. Las compañías de seguros privadas (EPSs) aparentemente están orientadas a asegurar atrabajadores de empresas grandes, mientras que el seguro social de salud se estaría orientando atrabajadores de bajos ingresos. Otra característica de la reforma peruana es la escasa participación delas EPS en las provincias y su mínima participación en los seguros voluntarios. Estos hechossignificarían que la reforma está aún muy lejos de alcanzar sus objetivos.

This thesis focuses on efforts to improve the provision of effective help to children and their families who are suffering or likely to suffer from significant harm from abuse or neglect through making better care plan decisions for them. The research evaluates the operation, process and outcomes of a recent national reform in the Israeli child protection decision making framework of Planning, Intervention and Evaluation Committees (PIECs) designed with the ambition of establishing a new way of working so that children and families will get the right help. A systems approach was undertaken as a conceptual framework in order to allow a whole-organisational understanding of what is happening in the field, and why. The research employs a qualitative method of inquiry and a case study design. The cases of 21 families brought before the PIECs were investigated and their situation was followed up after six months. Data were collected through interviews with professionals and parents, field observations of the committee meetings and document review. The key finding of the research is that there is a very limited realisation of the reform’s aims of strengthening practice and improving the safety and well-being of vulnerable children. The reform’s lack of success is explained by being ill-suited to the organisational working environment and culture. The analysis identified key systemic forces that came together to interfere with the reform having the hoped for impact across the various stages of the child protection process, including: workforce lack of skill, time, professional support, and organisational messages about practice priorities. The main conclusion of this thesis is that for good child protection work to be accomplished just drafting good reforms and telling the workforce what to do is not enough. This thesis advocates adopting systemic multi-professional working models to deliver services to children and families.

Previous issue date: 2014-09-17This dissertation aims to elucidate the question under study, whose starting point is the existence of a crisis in the system be its nature financial, social or of values. Within the context shown in this study, it seems that it is necessary to opt for protection measures, in order to ensure social security protection according to the Federal Constitution; or for economy measures, which focus precisely on the adoption of political measures that interfere in the economic market, in order to balance inflation and financial imbalances. The discussion at hand, therefore, is about the reasons why the State opts between protection or economy, as well as the consequences of that choice, that reverberate throughout society, thus justifying the importance of the study
tem por ponto de partida a existência de uma crise no sistema - seja ela de natureza financeira, social ou de valores e, dentro do contexto demonstrado neste estudo, indica que é necessário optar ou pela medida do amparo, a fim de assegurar a proteção previdenciária à sociedade, em respeito à Constituição Federal; ou pela medida da economia, que se concentra justamente na adoção de medidas políticas que interferem no mercado econômico, a fim de se equilibrar índices de inflação e desequilíbrios financeiros. A discussão em pauta, portanto, cuida dos motivos que levam o Estado a optar entre o amparo ou a economia, bem como das consequências decorrentes dessa escolha, que gera reflexos por toda a sociedade, justificando, assim, a importância do estudo

Ghana’s local government system has been subject to various reform attempts which all involved some sort of decentralisation. This article tries to link decentralisation to changing national policy frames and the various governments’ need to maintain political control. Consequently, decentralisation becomes a dependent variable of the so called bureaucratic development state. After a brief discussion of the colonial and post-colonial local government system in Ghana, emphasis is placed on the crisis of the post colonial state and the emergence of a new local government system in 1988 - which was successfully transformed into the administrative system of Ghana’s 4th republic after 1992. Local participation has been substantially improved an sustained by the introduction of the District Assemblies Common Fund in 1993 which transfers 5% of the national tax income to the districts.

The Brazilian Agrarian Reform was and still being the possible dream for workers who needs the mother land for their survival, their live and happiness. On the same way, the Agrarian Reform has been used as a powerful arm from administrators of this country, with the compromise to do it, in their government plans, in the last four decades, as a strategy to attract sympathy of the society compromised with Agrarian Reform and of those who needs the land for their live and to gain their survival. Various land redistribution policies have been adopted along the last three decades; however did not resolve the land concentration problem. According with studies of Professor Rodolfo Huffmann of UNICAMP, based on GINI index, the fundiary structure of Brazil, according on INCRA registers from 1967 to 1988 is one of the greatest in the world. In 1985 was approved a National Plan of Agrarian Reform – PNRA, which has given a north for criteria’s for Brazilian lands misappropriation, keeping, however, the interest of huge land owners and rural business. In 1987 the state of Ceará starts one policy of loaning for buy land with support of World Bank, already implemented in South Africa, Colombia and Paraguay, under a denomination of Solidary Agrarian Reform, further amplied for the Northeast Region with the name of Land Cellule, Land Bank and today as Fundiario Credit. This program has as a goal reduce and alleviate the rural poverty throughout a fundiaria re-struturation, capable of put the beneficiaries in a sustainable process that ends poverty and promote the social well being of the families. The objective of this work is to investigate sustainability and the Agrarian Reform Program impacts on the mutuarias families life’s, considering the original propose. The research was made in three municipalities of different ecosystems, serra, sertao and litoral, and the collected data allows make a analysis and conclusion that the conditions and program norms doesn’t guarantee not even his duration for a long period, much less a poverty reduction in the campo. Poverty is a phenomena which results from a development model funded in the economic growth and according to studies of NEAD, particularly from the 70’s, the economy was sustained in a internal market expansion of durable consume goods, identified with a basic consume box of the middle and high classes, model characterized as a excluding. Significant part of the population marginalized from the benefits of the economic progress. This model was created not from the Brazilian nation interests, but stimulated by multilaterals international organisms that have an economic interest in Brazil. The research can make an analysis and conclusion that the Solidary Agrarian Reform Program show itself as fundiaria restructuration through the land market but isn’t sustainable as an agrarian policy capable of bring to the benefited classes conditions of turn the land productive and rentable for omission of agrarian policies, having as a basis the reality of the Ceará semi-arid.
A reforma agrária no Brasil sempre foi e continua sendo o sonho acalentado por trabalhadores e trabalhadoras que necessitam da terra mãe para dela tirar seu sustento, a vida, a felicidade. Da mesma forma, a reforma agrária tem sido utilizada como arma poderosa pelos administradores deste país, sob compromisso de executála, em seus planos de governo, nas últimas quatro décadas, como estratégia para atrair a simpatia da sociedade civil comprometida com a reforma agrária e dos que da terra precisam para viver e dela tirar seu sustento. Várias políticas de redistribuição de terra vêm sendo adotadas ao longo destas últimas três décadas; no entanto não resolveram o problema da concentração da terra. Baseado no índice de GINI, a estrutura fundiária do Brasil, fundamentada no cadastro do INCRA de 1967 a 1988, é uma das maiores do mundo. Em 1985, foi aprovado o Plano Nacional de Reforma Agrária (PNRA), que norteou critérios para desapropriações de terras no Brasil, resguardando, porém, interesses dos grandes proprietários e empresas rurais. Em 1997, o Ceará inaugura uma política de financiamento de terras com apoio do Banco Mundial, já implantado na África do Sul, na Colômbia e Paraguai, sob a denominação de Reforma Agrária Solidária, posteriormente ampliado para a região Nordeste com o nome de Cédula da Terra, Banco da Terra, hoje Crédito Fundiário, programa que visa reduzir e aliviar a pobreza rural, por meio da reestruturação fundiária, capaz de inserir os beneficiários em um processo sustentável que elimine a pobreza e promova o bem-estar social das famílias. O objetivo deste trabalho é investigar a sustentabilidade do Programa Reforma Agrária, considerando sua proposta original. A pesquisa foi realizada em três municípios de ecossistemas diferenciados - serra, sertão e litoral - e os dados coletados permitem analisar e concluir que as condições e normas do programa não garantem nem mesmo sua duração por um tempo mais longo, muito menos a redução da pobreza no campo. A pobreza é um fenômeno que resulta de um modelo de desenvolvimento fundamentado no crescimento econômico e, de acordo com estudos do NEAD, principalmente a partir dos anos 70, a economia sustentou-se na expansão do mercado interno de bens de consumo durável, identificados à cesta básica de consumo da classe média e alta, e nos investimentos de base, modelo caracterizado como excludente. Marginalizou parte significativa da população dos benefícios do progresso econômico. Modelo este criado não pelos interesses da nação brasileira, mas estimulado pelos organismos internacionais multilaterais, que têm interesses econômicos no Brasil. A pesquisa realizada permite analisar e concluir que o Programa Reforma Agrária Solidária apresenta-se como medida de reestruturação fundiária via mercado de terras, mas não se sustenta como uma política agrária capaz de proporcionar à população beneficiada condições de tornar a terra produtiva e rentável, pela omissão de políticas agrícolas, tendo por base a realidade do semi-árido cearense.

Pełny tekst źródłaStreszczenie:
This thesis is about the prospect of change in the Peruvian mental health services system as seen through the lens of public psychiatry. It is based on the depiction of the work of psychiatrists in two of Lima's mental hospitals -Hospital Valdizán and Instituto Noguchi- and the projects of mental health services reform that I found in both of these institutions and an advocacy group sponsored by the Pan American Health Organisation. Ethnographic fieldwork was conducted from April 2012 to July 2013. I portray the current paradigm of care that dominates the public psychiatric sphere by describing the practice of specialists in outpatient consultations and hospitalisation wards. What I call the empirical model of psychiatry is an objectivistic, pharmaceuticalized, and top-down practice that finds its most augmented version in the wards. It loses sight of such therapeutic mandates as cultivating rapport, giving voice, and providing social support, elements that can be encountered in alternative paradigms of care that hold a marginal position in today's mental health system, such as the community mental health model that was developed in the 1980s at Instituto Noguchi and has progressively faded into near oblivion. The multiple inadequacies of treatment reviewed in this thesis, which are fuelled by a historical relegation of mental health policy in the country, speak of a psychiatry that is far from effectively improving the lives of service users. This was the greatest blind spot revealed by the mental health reform agenda; the need to improve psychiatry as a therapeutic practice was largely absent from reform discourse. Another important issue encountered was the failure of initiatives focused on training primary healthcare professionals in detecting and treating mental health problems (task-sharing). I argue that sustainable task-sharing strategies, added to comprehensive and locally-sensitive models of mental health services, should be explored. Finally, there is a paradox to be solved in relation to mental health governance in Peru. Psychiatry has hegemony; it owns the national institute of mental health and presides over the national mental health direction at the Ministry of Health. However, as a profession it has remained alienated from public health matters, absorbed in the daily practice of public hospitals and private practices. Mental health governance, then, needs to be balanced with the contribution of other professions and this is where the social route of the mental health system gains significance: anthropology has great potential to help develop a richer understanding of people's mental health and craft effective services in socially unequal and multicultural societies.

Basile, Monica Reese. "Reproductive justice and childbirth reform: doulas as agents of social change". Diss., University of Iowa, 2012. https://ir.uiowa.edu/etd/2819.
Pełny tekst źródłaStreszczenie:
This dissertation is an investigation of doulas as agents of social change through the lens of feminist theory. Doulas are nonmedical health care workers who provide physical, emotional, and informational support during pregnancy, childbirth, and/or the postpartum period. Because of doulas' willingness to work within the structures of the hospital setting, some have questioned the effectiveness of doulas as change-makers. While much feminist scholarship on the politics of birth centralizes the issue of medicalization, I demonstrate that expanding this line of analysis aids in better understanding the cultural impact of doula care as part of a larger picture of reproductive health advocacy.
Through discourse analysis, participant observation, face-to-face ethnographic interviews, and online surveys, I track the goals and effects doulas ascribe to their work, both activist and professional, and on both an individual and group level. Rather than asking whether doulas can successfully challenge the medicalization of birth, I seek to understand how the doula movement contributes to social justice through challenging various overlapping axes of inequality, related to race, class, gender, and sexuality. This analysis highlights the work of doulas in marginalized communities that is, as yet, under-researched and under-appreciated, while also illuminating the multifaceted effects of the dominant medical model of birth. I observe that doulas are increasingly working to empower people in multiple facets of their lives, beyond the birthing room. Rather than being incapable of, or uninterested in, creating social change, doulas are increasingly bringing a new political consciousness into birth work, as evidenced by the emerging designations of "radical doula" and "full spectrum doula." I argue that this movement among doulas represents a new paradigm in birthing rights activism, which connects childbirth choices to a larger reproductive justice agenda and forges connections between birthworkers and activists for causes such as LGBT rights, abortion rights, prisoners' rights, and economic and racial justice. By reimagining the reach of their work, many doulas are drawing necessary connections to social justice issues that are often overlooked in the childbirth reform movement, which tends to focus on medicalization as the primary issue.

This is a documentary research work, including the analysis of the available scientific literature on the portal BIREME, with the keywords "State Reform", "privatization", "outsourcing", "Health Care Reform", "modernization of the Public Sector, "and" Third Party Services ". In addition we sought documentation produced in articles, newspapers and websites on the case of the Hospital de Emergência e Trauma Senator Humberto Lucena in João Pessoa, Paraíba. The analysis of the literature showed that there is an ideological divide in production, even academic, where it is possible to delineate two distinct camps. A field that follows in defense of necessity as a defense management state machine, this field coach who preaches and makes use of successful experiences for their defense model. Another field, in line with the thinking of the Health Reform follows the questioning of reform and prosecution of the impediments that the reform has imposed on the Unified Health System Without falling into a paralyzing nihilism, the author notes that the ideological issue is prominent in academic production on the matter.
Trata-se de um trabalho de pesquisa documental, tendo sido analisado a literatura disponível no portal científico da BIREME, tendo como palavras-chaves “Reforma de Estado”, “Privatização”, “Terceirização”, “Reforma dos Serviços de Saúde”, “Modernização do Setor Público”, e “Serviços de Terceiros”. Além disso buscou-se a documentação produzida em artigos, jornais e sites sobre o caso do Hospital de Emergência e Trauma Senador Humberto Lucena, em João Pessoa, Paraíba. A análise de literatura demonstrou que há uma divisão ideológica na produção, mesmo acadêmica, onde é possível se delimitarem dois campos distintos. Um campo que segue em defesa da terceirização e privatização como necessidade de gestão da máquina estatal, campo este que se apregoa técnico e faz uso de experiências exitosas para sua defesa de modelo. Outro campo, consonante com o pensamento da Reforma Sanitária segue no questionamento da reforma e na acusação dos empecilhos que a reforma tem imposto ao Sistema Único de Saúde. Sem cair num niilismo paralisante, o autor constata que a questão ideológica está fortemente presente na produção acadêmica sobre a matéria.

Este trabalho tem por objetivo realizar uma discussão acerca do ideário de José Pedro Varela (1845-1879) e a sua proposta de uma reforma educacional no Uruguai caudilhista do século XIX, a partir de uma perspectiva situada no campo da História Intelectual. Neste sentido, propomos, por meio do conceito de “contextualismo lingüístico” de Quentin Skinner e John G. A. Pocock, relacionar as ideias políticas de Varela com os principais debates e publicações realizadas por esse intelectual no período trabalhado sobre a questão da educação pública no Uruguai. Partimos do pressuposto de que, por meio das propostas de educação estabelecidas por ele, existe uma intenção política mais ampla que visava a implementação da democracia e a consolidação das práticas republicanas no país. Além disso, acreditamos que, por meio das propostas de Varela, existe uma ideia de como deveria ser o Uruguai, em termos de estabilidade política e social. Para que “tal projeto de Uruguai” seja desvelado de seus escritos, utilizaremos escritos do autor em alguns periódicos e jornais da época, além das obras La Educación del Pueblo e La Legislación Escolar, também de sua autoria. Da mesma forma, por meio da análise dos espaços de sociabilidade e os “microclimas” – nos dizeres de Jean François Sirinelli - dos homens de letras no país, recorreremos eventualmente aos escritos de alguns de seus contemporâneos, como Carlos María Ramírez, Agustin de Vedia, Lucas Herrera y Obes, Juan Zorrilla de San Martin, entre outros, para que possamos ter uma maior compreensão acerca dos embates em torno da questão educacional e, conseqüentemente, do projeto republicano de nação uruguaia nela inserido.
The present work, situated in the field of Intellectual History, aims to focus a discussion towards José Pedro Varela‟s (1845 -1879) ideas for an educational reform in Uruguay on nineteenth century. Therefore, we propose, through Quentin Skinner e John G. A Pocock‟s “linguistic conceptualism”, a relation between Varela‟s ideas and the main debates and publications about public education issues in Uruguay. Our hypothesis that his educational propositions intend to accomplish a wider political project that aimed to implement democracy and the consolidation of republican practices. Besides that, we believe that Varela‟s propositions build a projection of how Uruguay should be in terms of social and political stability. To discover this “project of Uruguay” in his writings, we are going to utilize as historical sources some texts published in newspapers back in those days, beside his works La Educación del Pueblo and La Legislción Escolar. Yet, for the purposes of the analyzing the Uruguayan intellectual‟s sociability spaces and their “microweathers” – in Jean François Sirinelli‟s terms – we are going the recur eventually to the writings of Varela‟s contemporaries, such as Carlos MaríaRamírez, Agustin de Vedia, Lucas Herrera y Obes, Juan Zorrilla de San Martin, and others, in order to get a wider comprehension about the educational struggles e, by the consequence, Uruguayan republican project attached to it.

This qualitative study in part explores the beliefs, attitudes and intentions of Iranian elementary school teachers about engaging in a curriculum reform endeavour, the Systems Thinking Education (STE) curriculum, and investigates the main motivational factors for the teachers' involvement in the program. Within a social marketing framework, this study also defines and develops the strategies and policies of an Iranian education Non Governmental Organization (NGO) that is steering the STE project. Systems Thinking (ST) is a set of required skills for understanding the systematic structure of a phenomenon and the resulting behaviour of that structure, and improves problem-solving and decision-making abilities. The ST framework is a relatively new concept in the Iranian education system and could be an appropriate alternative for the current memorization based system in formal education. The findings of this study expand the application of a social marketing framework to the field of education for the first time. In this work, social marketing provides a systematic approach to clearly set the goals; define the target group; explore the main barriers and motivational factors for the target group to achieve the goals; and develop strategies, techniques, and tools to remove the barriers and reinforce the motivational factors in order to bring about the desired behavioural change in teachers to successfully implement the reform. In brief, by primary means of individual interviews and focus group conversations, the author examines how Iranian elementary teachers, as the main change agents of curriculum reform, can be motivated to engage in the STE curriculum.Cette étude qualitative explore en partie les croyances, les comportements et les intentions des maîtres iraniens du primaire à s'engager dans une reforme du curriculum, l'approche systémique, ainsi que les principaux facteurs pouvant motiver les professeurs. Dans un cadre de marketing social, cette étude définit et développe également des stratégies pour la société non gouvernementale iranienne qui s'occupe de ce projet. L'approche systémique consiste en l'acquisition d'une série de compétences nécessaires à la compréhension de la structure systématique d'un phénomène et le comportement résultant de cette structure. De plus, cette approche sert aussi à améliorer l'aptitude des élèves en résolution de problèmes et en prise de décisions. La base théorique de l'approche systémique est relativement chose nouvelle dans le système d'éducation iranien et pourrait représenter une alternative appropriée au système courant axé sur la mémorisation. Les trouvailles de cette étude étendent pour la première fois l'application du marketing social dans un contexte éducationnel.Dans ce domaine, le marketing social fournit une approche systématique dans le but de définir des objectifs clairs et une population cible, explorer les barrières principales a la réalisation des objectifs, ainsi que proposer des techniques et des outils pour éliminer ces barrières et renforcer les facteurs motivants afin d'arriver aux changements de comportements désirés. En bref, au moyen d'interview privés et de groupes de discussions, l'auteur examine comment les maîtres iraniens, comme agents principaux de ce changement de curriculum, peuvent être motivés pour s'engager dans le/la STE.

The thesis concentrates on examining how images and representations have shaped a discourse on homosexuality, and how, in turn, this has shaped a gay and lesbian social and group identity. It explores the political, media, and social spheres to show how at any point during this period, images of homosexuality and identity were being projected in society, contributing to public ideas about sexual identity. This is broken down into three chronological time periods: a ‘gay liberation’ period during the 1960s and 1970s, a ‘visible subculture’ period during the late 1970s and 1980s, and a ‘becoming mainstream’ period in the 1990s and early 2000s. The central premise of this thesis is that identity is not just self-created, but is often the result of the images and messages we see around us. Thus while other historians have concentrated on how men and women have created and adopted their own sexual identities, this thesis looks at how images in society have influenced a public discourse on homosexuality which has helped create social and group identities. Taken together, these images help create a group identity, which often has much more relevance for how the majority of people understand what it means to define someone as a gay man or a lesbian in any of the three periods studied. Thus, a publically-perceived sexual identity is created which is used by both heterosexual people in forming ideas about gay life, and homosexual people in discovering their own sexuality and sexual identity. The political/legal sections of the thesis use a wealth of primary sources including Hansard, Government reports, oral testimony, lobbying papers, manifestos, memoirs, public statements, newsletters, minutes, and social surveys. The media sections use newspapers, magazines, films, and television programmes, while the social sections rely on oral testimony, the records of gay groups, pictures, newsletters, maps, health campaign literature, memoirs, and news articles. Taken together, they provide examples of the dominant images being projected in the three time periods, by these three media. While this thesis recognises that there is no single gay identity at any one point – with various exclusions and competing ideas being presented – there is a more general picture framed in each of these periods. The conclusion recognises the role of images in society in creating sexual identities, while also examining the overall development of a gay social and group identity from its inception at the beginning of this period, to its place at the end.

nÃo hÃA reforma agrÃria no Brasil sempre foi e continua sendo o sonho acalentado por trabalhadores e trabalhadoras que necessitam da terra mÃe para dela tirar seu sustento, a vida, a felicidade. Da mesma forma, a reforma agrÃria tem sido utilizada como arma poderosa pelos administradores deste paÃs, sob compromisso de executÃla, em seus planos de governo, nas Ãltimas quatro dÃcadas, como estratÃgia para atrair a simpatia da sociedade civil comprometida com a reforma agrÃria e dos que da terra precisam para viver e dela tirar seu sustento. VÃrias polÃticas de redistribuiÃÃo de terra vÃm sendo adotadas ao longo destas Ãltimas trÃs dÃcadas; no entanto nÃo resolveram o problema da concentraÃÃo da terra. Baseado no Ãndice de GINI, a estrutura fundiÃria do Brasil, fundamentada no cadastro do INCRA de 1967 a 1988, à uma das maiores do mundo. Em 1985, foi aprovado o Plano Nacional de Reforma AgrÃria (PNRA), que norteou critÃrios para desapropriaÃÃes de terras no Brasil, resguardando, porÃm, interesses dos grandes proprietÃrios e empresas rurais. Em 1997, o Cearà inaugura uma polÃtica de financiamento de terras com apoio do Banco Mundial, jà implantado na Ãfrica do Sul, na ColÃmbia e Paraguai, sob a denominaÃÃo de Reforma AgrÃria SolidÃria, posteriormente ampliado para a regiÃo Nordeste com o nome de CÃdula da Terra, Banco da Terra, hoje CrÃdito FundiÃrio, programa que visa reduzir e aliviar a pobreza rural, por meio da reestruturaÃÃo fundiÃria, capaz de inserir os beneficiÃrios em um processo sustentÃvel que elimine a pobreza e promova o bem-estar social das famÃlias. O objetivo deste trabalho à investigar a sustentabilidade do Programa Reforma AgrÃria, considerando sua proposta original. A pesquisa foi realizada em trÃs municÃpios de ecossistemas diferenciados - serra, sertÃo e litoral - e os dados coletados permitem analisar e concluir que as condiÃÃes e normas do programa nÃo garantem nem mesmo sua duraÃÃo por um tempo mais longo, muito menos a reduÃÃo da pobreza no campo. A pobreza à um fenÃmeno que resulta de um modelo de desenvolvimento fundamentado no crescimento econÃmico e, de acordo com estudos do NEAD, principalmente a partir dos anos 70, a economia sustentou-se na expansÃo do mercado interno de bens de consumo durÃvel, identificados à cesta bÃsica de consumo da classe mÃdia e alta, e nos investimentos de base, modelo caracterizado como excludente. Marginalizou parte significativa da populaÃÃo dos benefÃcios do progresso econÃmico. Modelo este criado nÃo pelos interesses da naÃÃo brasileira, mas estimulado pelos organismos internacionais multilaterais, que tÃm interesses econÃmicos no Brasil. A pesquisa realizada permite analisar e concluir que o Programa Reforma AgrÃria SolidÃria apresenta-se como medida de reestruturaÃÃo fundiÃria via mercado de terras, mas nÃo se sustenta como uma polÃtica agrÃria capaz de proporcionar à populaÃÃo beneficiada condiÃÃes de tornar a terra produtiva e rentÃvel, pela omissÃo de polÃticas agrÃcolas, tendo por base a realidade do semi-Ãrido cearense.
The Brazilian Agrarian Reform was and still being the possible dream for workers who needs the mother land for their survival, their live and happiness. On the same way, the Agrarian Reform has been used as a powerful arm from administrators of this country, with the compromise to do it, in their government plans, in the last four decades, as a strategy to attract sympathy of the society compromised with Agrarian Reform and of those who needs the land for their live and to gain their survival. Various land redistribution policies have been adopted along the last three decades; however did not resolve the land concentration problem. According with studies of Professor Rodolfo Huffmann of UNICAMP, based on GINI index, the fundiary structure of Brazil, according on INCRA registers from 1967 to 1988 is one of the greatest in the world. In 1985 was approved a National Plan of Agrarian Reform â PNRA, which has given a north for criteriaâs for Brazilian lands misappropriation, keeping, however, the interest of huge land owners and rural business. In 1987 the state of Cearà starts one policy of loaning for buy land with support of World Bank, already implemented in South Africa, Colombia and Paraguay, under a denomination of Solidary Agrarian Reform, further amplied for the Northeast Region with the name of Land Cellule, Land Bank and today as Fundiario Credit. This program has as a goal reduce and alleviate the rural poverty throughout a fundiaria re-struturation, capable of put the beneficiaries in a sustainable process that ends poverty and promote the social well being of the families. The objective of this work is to investigate sustainability and the Agrarian Reform Program impacts on the mutuarias families lifeâs, considering the original propose. The research was made in three municipalities of different ecosystems, serra, sertao and litoral, and the collected data allows make a analysis and conclusion that the conditions and program norms doesnât guarantee not even his duration for a long period, much less a poverty reduction in the campo. Poverty is a phenomena which results from a development model funded in the economic growth and according to studies of NEAD, particularly from the 70âs, the economy was sustained in a internal market expansion of durable consume goods, identified with a basic consume box of the middle and high classes, model characterized as a excluding. Significant part of the population marginalized from the benefits of the economic progress. This model was created not from the Brazilian nation interests, but stimulated by multilaterals international organisms that have an economic interest in Brazil. The research can make an analysis and conclusion that the Solidary Agrarian Reform Program show itself as fundiaria restructuration through the land market but isnât sustainable as an agrarian policy capable of bring to the benefited classes conditions of turn the land productive and rentable for omission of agrarian policies, having as a basis the reality of the Cearà semi-arid.

Previous issue date: 2010-08-20Trata da reforma do Regime Próprio de Previdência Social dos servidores civis da União, enquanto parte da reforma do Estado Brasileiro na busca de sua inserção na nova realidade, onde o capital financeiro é o centro das relações econômicas e sociais do capitalismo contemporâneo. O estudo tem por objetivo analisar as mudanças ocorridas no sistema de proteção previdenciária dos servidores civis da União no período de 1998 a 2005, refletindo como esse processo repercute no conjunto dos direitos previdenciários e qual direção sinaliza para a previdência da categoria. Apresenta considerações sobre o contexto econômico mundial que estimulou a expansão do capital financeiro e sobre e os reflexos destes nas economias dos países da América Latina. O Brasil, constrangido pela crise da dívida da década de 1980, adere ao conjunto de proposições de cunho liberal definidas no Consenso de Washington, que estabeleceu as linhas gerais da política econômica que passaria a ser implantada no País a partir da década de 1990. Sob o domínio da ideologia neoliberal, o Estado intervencionista é tido como ineficiente e protecionista, e por isso deve ser reformado, diminuído nas suas funções, as quais devem ser conduzidas ao mercado. As reformas da Previdência Social, tanto do regime dos trabalhadores do setor privado quanto do regime próprio dos servidores públicos, são expressões particulares do projeto de reforma do Estado. Constata-se que a reforma no sistema de previdência dos servidores públicos resultou em uma brutal diminuição de diretos para a categoria, aproximou os dois regimes de previdência, nivelando-os de acordo com os de direitos reduzidos, e ampliou espaço ao capital financeiro, deixando para o mercado a promoção da previdência complementar que será viabilizada por meio dos fundos de pensão, transferindo aos servidores os riscos e custos de suas aposentadorias integrais , uma vez que será instituída amodalidade de contribuição definida
The research concerns itself with the reform of the social security plan for the federal government s civil servants. This reform was pursued as part of the Brazilian State s attempt to adapt to the new reality where financial capital is the centre of economic and social relations within contemporary capitalism. The study analyses the changes implemented in the security system for the federal government s civil servants between 1998 and 2005, reflecting on how the process impacted on security rights and which direction it signals for workers. It presents considerations about the global economic context that motivated the expansion of the financial capital and how that affected Latin American countries. Constrained by the debt crisis of the 1980s, Brazil adhered to the Washington Consensus liberal set of rules, which defined the general direction of the economic policies that would be implemented in the country from the 1990s onwards. According to the tenet of the neoliberal ideology, the interventionist state is deemed inefficient and protectionist, thus it must be reformed and play a smaller role, focused on the market. The social security reform, both for private and public workers, is a particular expression of the State s reform. In the case of civil servants, its outcome was a brutal erosion of rights and brought closer the two security regimes, which were levelled off with weaker rights. Besides, it broadened the space for financial capital, leaving to the market the task to promote complimentary insurance to be financed with pension funds. The shift transferred to workers the risks and costs of their full retirement pensions because a defined contribution scheme was adopted

Resumo: Atualmente, a parcela de idosos no total da população tem aumentado em todo o mundo. Proporcionalmente, cresceram as reivindicações por sistemas públicos de pensão, gastos com saúde e orçamentos governamentais. Como resultado, países que implementam apenas pensões "(pay-as-you-go) se deparam com déficits fiscais. Minha tese se foca particularmente no esquema financiado denominado multi-pilar ou multi-camada ou projeto de pensão de três camadas avaliando maneiras de melhorá-lo. A tese fornece um panorama geral da economia e atividade econômica de Gana, e a discussão teórica sobre combinação entre prestação de previdência privada e pública na forma de pensão de Gana, preparando um sistema de pensão de três camadas completado em 2008. O novo sistema de três camadas apresenta uma primeira camada de pensão pública do tipo "pay-as-you-go" que consiste em diferentes partes, incluindo uma parte relativa a contribuições, uma pensão obrigatória de gestão pública e privada de segunda camada e uma terceira camada de poupança de pensões voluntária. A análise desta tese se foca na escolha de seguro de renda, retornos de investimentos e a viabilidade de futuras reformas. Também traz à tona alguns problemas irresolutos e aponta possíveis problemas que podem surgir em decorrência do novo sistema de pensões e analisa se o sistema será capaz de atingir os objetivos estabelecidos a principio. Ainda que a implementação em 2010 do novo regime de pensões tenha sido bem sucedida, é possível que alguns grupos tenham sido deixados de fora
Abstract: In recent time the share of old in the total population has been increasing around the world. Proportionally growing are claims on public pension systems, health care expenditures, and government budgets. As a result, countries which implement only pay-as-you-go pensions face fiscal deficits. My thesis focuses in particular on the funded scheme referred to as the multi-pillar or multi-tier or three tier pension schemes and appraises ways to improve it. The thesis gives an overview of Ghana's economy and economic activity, then the theoretical discussion on combining public and private pension provision in the form of three-tier pension scheme, followed by a description and analysis of the Ghanaian pension reform, setting up a three tier pension system completed in 2008. The new three tier system features a first tier of public P.A.Y.G pension consisting of different parts including a contribution related part, a mandatory second tier privately and publicly managed funded pension and a third tier of voluntary pension savings. This thesis analysis focuses on the choice of income security, investment returns, and the feasibility of further reforms. It also brings up a number of unsettled issues then points to potential problems that may arise from the new pension system and looks at whether the system will be able to achieve the goals stated at the outset. Even though the new pension scheme has been successfully implemented in 2010, it is possible that some groups could be left out

O objetivo principal dessa dissertação foi analisar o processo de formação do JUMAFI (Jovens Unidos para a Mobilização da Fazenda Ipanema), grupo de jovens do assentamento rural da Fazenda Ipanema, localizada no município paulista de Iperó, motivados pela busca a alternativas de geração de renda ambiental e socialmente sustentável, sob a luz da Educação Ambiental. Deste modo, concluí ser necessário construir uma análise a partir de uma visão de complementaridade de ações, da compreensão da lógica da ação coletiva dos grupos sociais existentes na comunidade e de uma análise comportamental sobre as iniciativas e a história de formação dos grupos locais, das experiências coletivas vividas pelos agricultores, e, principalmente, através da experiência vivida pelos jovens na organização do JUMAFI. Centrei minha análise na noção de participação e organização social, analisando a formação dos grupos e os aspectos da vida cotidiana. Utilizando elementos da pesquisa social qualitativa, e outros procedimentos da pesquisa participante, realizei o acompanhamento no desenvolvimento destes grupos, a fim de apreender os elementos que favorecem ou impedem a ação coletiva em grupos de jovens, buscando perceber as fortalezas e oportunidades vistas por eles no trabalho coletivo.Esta pesquisa esteve dividida em dois momentos: Tempo 1- que se refere ao momento da observação participante e de entrevistas, em que se deu o contato com os jovens do assentamento, o início do envolvimento, a formação do grupo JUMAFI e, também, todo o planejamento das ações do grupo; e Tempo 2 - momento de acompanhamento do desenvolvimento do grupo JUMAFI, momento da ação dos jovens, da gestão das idéias, a fim de colocar em prática as atividades planejadas. No momento 1 da pesquisa, o grupo grande (JUMAFI) demonstrou grande dificuldade em lidar com o trabalho coletivo, em colocar em prática o planejamento da atividades previstas para o grupo, assim como em manter a convivência e a freqüência nos encontros entre os membros do grupo. Aspectos como confiança, afetividade, afinidade e respeito foram elementos identificados por eles como fundamentais para o êxito de um trabalho dessa natureza. No segundo momento da pesquisa, embora o grupo JUMAFI tenha optado por continuar o trabalho para a busca de alternativas de geração de renda, foi dada ênfase a um novo formato, através de grupos pequenos de afinidade e convivencialidade. Concluindo, foi possível perceber que o tamanho do grupo e os aspectos de convivencialidade têm uma forte influência nos aspectos de formação, organização e gestão do espaço coletivo, bem como a forma com que os indivíduos percebem a natureza e estabelecem seus vínculos de respeito e afeto. O trabalho com jovens e o formato pequeno de grupos favorece a participação em grupo, proporciona um senso de responsabilidade maior pelo trabalho, favorece a organização voluntária, os laços afetivos e de troca, havendo espaço para uma participação mais democrática, favorecendo a autonomia dos participantes e a formação de novas lideranças na comunidade. Os grupos se organizam para a auto-expressão, possibilitando maior troca entre os integrantes e maior franqueza nos sentimentos ligados à participação coletiva. Além disso, esse tipo de organização pode, futuramente, favorecer a ação articulada junto à comunidade, permitindo uma atuação em rede. O arranjo metodológico, utilizando elementos da pesquisa participante e da pesquisa qualitativa, favoreceu a participação dos jovens, possibilitando maior expressão dos participantes em relação à pesquisa. Tendo em vista estes resultados, refleti ainda sobre o papel da intervenção social em trabalhos de Educação Ambiental, concluindo que estas intervenções devem estar apoiadas em um referencial teórico elaborado com base nas necessidades sentidas em campo, podendo ser o caminho para a implementação de um processo educativo continuado e não apenas uma.The main aim of this dissertation was analyzing the process of formation of the JUMAFI (Teenagers United for the Mobilization of the Ipanema Farm), group of teenagers from the rural sitting on the Ipanema Farm, located in the city of Iperó, in São Paulo state, motivated by the search for alternatives of environmentally and socially sustainable income generation, under the light of the Environmental Education. Thus, I concluded that there is a necessity of building an analysis from a starting view of complementing of actions, from the comprehension of the logics of collective actions from social groups in the community and from a behavioral analysis about the initiatives and the history of the local groups' formation, the collective experiences and, mainly, through the experience gathered by the teenagers in the organization of the JUMAFI. I centered my analysis in the notion of social> participation and organization, analyzing the groups' formation and the aspects of daily life. Using elements from the qualitative social research, and other procedures of participative research, I performed the attendance in the development of these groups, for collecting the elements that favor or prevent the collective action in groups of teenagers, seeking to realize the strength and opportunities seen by them in the collective work. This research is divided in two parts: Part 1 referred to the participative observation moment and interviews, when there was a contact with the teenagers from the sitting, the beginning of the involvement, the formation of JUMAFI and, also, all the groups action planning; and Part 2 moment of attendance of the JUMAFI development, moment of the teenagers action, of the ideas management, for putting into practice the planned activities. On the first part, the large group (JUMAFI) showed great difficulty in dealing with the collective work, in putting into practice the planned activities for the group, likewise keeping the living together and the frequency on the meetings between the members of the group. Some aspects like confidence, affectivity, affinity and respect were the elements identified by them as fundamental for the success of a work like that. On the second part of the research, though JUMAFI group has decided to keep the search for income generation activities, there was an emphasis to a new format, through small groups of affinity and living together. Concluding, it was possible to notice that the group size and the living together aspects have a strong influence on the formation, organization and collective space management aspects, like the way the individuals notice the nature and establish their ties of respect and affection. The work with groups of teenagers and the small groups format favor the group participation, provide a stronger sense of responsibility at work, favor the voluntary organization, the affective ties and changing, making room for a more democratic participation, favoring the participants autonomy and the formation of new leaderships in the community. The groups organize themselves for the self-expression, allowing a greater changing among the participants and a higher level of frankness about the feelings connected to the collective participation. Besides, this kind of organization can favor the articulate action at the community level, allowing a network action. The methodological arrangement, using elements of the participative and qualitative research, favored the teenagers' participation, allowing a bigger commitment of the participants to the research. Having in mind these results, I reflected about the role of social intervention in Environmental Education works, concluding that these interventions must be supported by a theoretical referential, elaborated based on the field necessities, being the way for the implementation of an educational process and not only a punctual intervention in field. Finally, I conclude that the Environmental Education, based on a practical and theoretical basis, can be the area of knowledge able to contribute effectively for the process of autonomy and management for groups of teenagers in search of opportunities on the rural, social and environmental sustainable field.
