The electoral television debate is configured as an arena for the discursive clash, to the extent that it is a space that promotes dialogue between candidates, functioning as another "platform" of public speaking. Despite its strongly, carefully construction, evidenced in the architecture of this electoral mise-en-scène, it is in the televised debate that candidates expose themselves and more directly speak to voters. Due to the audiovisual apparatus, we cannot dissociate the verb from the body that, in actuality, is essential to politics, especially at the time of electoral campaign; therefore, the presidential election debate is an empowering apparatus for the interlacing of verb and image. For this work, therefore, we will present an analysis of the electoral political subject's constitution along with the mutations of the televised debate genus, taking on the second round debates of presidential elections, from the re-democratization (1989) to the present (2014), and focusing on categories like "the architecture of debate", "the face", "the silhouette" and "the verb". To this end, we will be guided by reflections on the studies of Discourse Analysis, which take into account the syncretic wording in its historical density, as well as the studies on public speech, supporting ourselves by the contributions of J.-J. Courtine and the works of M. Foucault, thus focusing on the importance of discourse studies in conjunction with History, seen in its discontinuities.

This paper aims to analyze the insertion of black professionals in the legal market, with emphasis on private advocacy, in the city of Salvador - Bahia. The interest is to verify, about a decade after the implementation of affirmative action in higher education, as is the professional field of Law, and how is the black presence in this field of training and professional performance. In the scope of formation, two higher education institutions, UFBA (Federal University of Bahia) and UCSAL (Catholic University of Salvador), selected based on their tradition in the teaching of Law, are the two oldest in the state of Bahia, and also due to the high performance of these universities in ENADE and the OAB Exam. Initially, we sought to analyze the enrollment of black students in these two universities, covering the period between 2003 and 2016. We then analyze the insertion of black professionals in the corporate market and large law firms in the city of Salvador, observing the most prestigious offices in the city, Selected based on the magazine Análise Advocacia 500. The theoretical framework that informs the research is the Sociology of Race Relations, anchored in the conception of race as a social construct, as proposed by Guimarães (1999), and in the dialogue with the Sociology of Professions, Based on the theoretical contributions of Eliot Freidson (2001), and Bonelli research (2002, 2008, 2013). In terms of method, we use secondary quantitative data (Inep data) and the generation of primary qualitative data, based on the iconographic analysis of the websites of the largest offices in Salvador, based on the publication Análise Advocacia 500, as well as in the publication itself , As well as semi-structured interviews with UFBA and UCSAL Law Teachers (in the area of education) and black lawyers and attorneys (in the market), seeking to understand their perceptions about racial relations in the market of soteropolitan law. Our main conclusion is that affirmative action policies have promoted the democratization of access to the teaching of law in Salvador, forming a large number of black lawyers, but the absorption of these professionals by the private law market still finds racial barriers, which make it impossible to access them. To the large offices in Salvador.

In aquatic environments, phytoplankton consists mostly of photosynthetic microorganisms that serve as the basis of food chains. However, besides photoautotrophy, it is widely reported in the literature that many microalgae can take up dissolved organic matter present in the environment concomitantly with the photosynthesis, a metabolic pathway known as mixotrophy. Little is known about the ecophysiology of mixotrophy in microalgae, and almost all studies are focused on the use of this metabolic pathway to increase the production of algal biomass and stimulate the production of specific biomolecules. Another important issue, considering the current anthropic activity, is that most of the contaminants eliminated in aquatic environments, such as metals and nanoparticles, affect the phytoplankton. However, so far, no ecotoxicological study involving mixotrophic metabolism was found in the literature. To better understand mixotrophy in microalgae, this work chose the chlorophycean freshwater Chlorella sorokiniana as test organism. We divided the study into two parts: the first focused on the physiological/biotechnological interest through the study of growth, photosynthetic parameters, changes in cellular volume, and production of biomolecules (proteins, carbohydrates and lipids); the second part focused on the ecotoxicological effects of cadmium (Cd) and titanium dioxide nanoparticles (NPs-TiO2). To stimulate mixotrophy, glucose (1.0 g.L-1 or 5 x 10-3 mol.L-1) was used as the organic carbon source. The results showed that during mixotrophy, the microalga C. sorokiniana presented higher population growth and production of biomolecules, such as chlorophyll a and lipids, when compared to photoautotrophic cultures. It was also observed that the photosynthetic parameters were affected by mixotrophy, although they did not interfere in the growth of the microalga, and that the presence of bacteria in the cultures acted as a stimulant factor in the production of algal biomass. Regarding the ecotoxicological effects of contaminants, microalgae in mixotrophy were more resistant to both Cd and NPs-TiO2 than those in photoautotrophy, but with changes in the biochemical composition what can affected the energy transfer in the environment. In general, we can conclude that mixotrophy should be considered in studies with phytoplankton, since aquatic environments present a myriad of organic carbon that can be used by these microorganisms. As general conclusions, we can mention that organic carbon acted as an extra source of structural carbon and energy for microalgae, not necessarily relying solely on photosynthesis to survive, so stimulating the growth and production of biomolecules of biotechnological interest, and increased cellular viability in environments contaminated with metals and nanoparticles. This study is a contribution to the understanding of mixotrophy and photoautotrophy metabolisms in a freshwater Chlorophyta with biotechnological potential.

Aims: To investigate factors related to physical exercise intolerance in T2D comparing similarities and differences between type 2 diabetes (T2D) and healthy adjustments of cardiorespiratory system and cerebral and peripheral muscle oxygentation during an incremental cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPET).Methods:Twenty-two men with T2D (T2DG) and 18 apparently healthy controls (CG) performed incremental cycling exercises. Pulmonary oxygen uptake, cerebral and muscle oxygenation were measured using a computerized metabolic cart, a near-infrared spectrophotometer (NIRS), system, respectively. Results:The groups were similar for age (CG: 53.6 ± 3.8 vsT2DMG: 54.9 ± 5.6) and body mass index (BMI) (CG: 27.8 ± 2.4 vsT2DMG: 27.51.9). T2DMG presented lower aerobic capacity (VO2peak: 20.0 ± 4.2 vs23.2 ± 4.7) and workload (134.5 ± 27.5 vs158.8 ± 35.7) compared to CG. Cerebral [HHb] presentedan inverse responsebetween groups, CG increased during exercise, while T2DG reduced. The [HHb] responseof the VL was similar between the groups.Conclusions:Individuals with T2D presented reducedcardiopulmonary performance and abnormalbehavior of cerebral deoxygenation(compared with health). The data suggest that microvascular changes can affect tissues with a high sensitivity to oxygen depletion, such as the brain region, affecting cerebral auto-regulation which could be related with reduced exercise tolerance in diabetic patients.

Supply chains (SC) are becoming increasingly dynamic, globalized and complex. This reality increases the vulnerability of such chains to unwanted events that may compromise the performance of companies and chains as a whole, called Supply Chain Risks (SCR). Thus, by employing Supply Chain Management (SGM) tools to seek competitive advantage, companies become more susceptible to situations such as supply disruption, quality mismatches and unexpected price swings, among others. Thus, knowing the risks that affect supply chains and identifying actions to mitigate these risks becomes fundamental to reduce their impact on organizations and CS. In this context, this research aimed to identify the main risks that affect Agri-food Supply Chains (AFSC) and how these risks impact on the level of vertical coordination of these chains. Aiming to meet the research objectives, a systematic review of the literature, interviews with agents and a survey type survey with cold storage companies from all over the country were carried out. Factorial Analysis (FA) and Multiple Regression Analysis (MRA) were used to analyze the data collected. The results indicate that the supplier's raw material and low technology risks lead the slaughterhouses to integrate vertically the production of animal for slaughter, while the risks of climate and sanitary inadequacy lead companies to give preference to older suppliers. The ease of creating collaborative actions, the exchange of information and the differential treatment were efficient in creating a stable relationship. With regard to transaction costs, it was evidenced that agents seek to reduce ex-post costs and create a trust relationship. With regard to socio-environmental risks, it has been observed that there is pressure from slaughterhouses to exclude suppliers who employ ethically unacceptable production techniques.

The similarity of the wetlands system with natural landscape, scenic beauty confirmed, attributes to it a unique characteristic, which allows the usage of the surrounding area for leisure activities, sports practice, environmental education, tourism, among others. This paper aims to evaluate the potential benefits and the challenges of implanting a wetlands system consorted to an urban park, as post-treatment of effluent treated in a lagoon system, in a sugar-ethanol sector company located in Barra Bonita, Brazil, SP. The methodology used is based on the information gathering and compilation in bibliography and primary data collected through the collection and laboratory analysis. The final product presented the real and necessary dimensions for the implementation of a wetlands system associated to an urban park and indicated the best location for the implementation of the project considering the physical, urban and legal aspects, through the association of the proposed areas with the guidelines of the Integrated Master Plan of the municipality, but also demonstrated that connecting a wetlands treatment system to an urban park can be an effective alternative to develop social, environmental and urban aspects to the municipality and its population

The object of this thesis is the work of the collector of recyclable materials, in the context of the institutional changes that had as a milestone the approval of the Solid Waste Law (12.305/2010). The experiences of collective organization of the collectors, inserted in the broader movement of the Solidary Economy, were covered by public policies that aimed at its consolidation, as a strategy of creation of work and income. Within the framework of these public policies, the CATAFORTE program aimed to materially structure and professionally train collectors organized in cooperatives and production networks to be included in the Municipal Plans for Integrated Solid Waste Management, as provided for in the National Policy on Solid Waste. We follow the action of CATAFORTE, observing two networks of cooperatives, one in Maceió and another in Campinas, in a comparative perspective. The intention was to verify if, in this process, the insertion of the collectors would take place in the configuration of precarious work or if the objectives of the Solidary Economy would be fulfilled, of positive insertion in work regimes capable of providing income and dignified conditions. We focus attention on income, access to rights linked to the world of work and management of enterprises. The impact of CATAFORTE was different in the cases observed, resulting in the consolidation of economic sustainability and access to labor rights in one case, and in the absence of these elements, in another. Successful experience points to the possibility that collector cooperatives may be able to generate sufficient income to remove its co-workers from the poverty situation. Regarding management, both experiences demonstrate hybridity between elements of hetero-management and self-management, with hierarchical organization based on consensus. Another aspect that distinguishes them from typical capitalist enterprises is their participation in the municipal political sphere, with expression of the demands in the field of labor.

Considering the tourism policies and their effects in touristic routes, it is important to consider the context in which those routes formed during the development of these itineraries and to take into account similar characteristics of locations and municipalities. In this view, the touristic routes could encourage the discovery of new tourism regions to benefit the local communities, visitors and all organizations directly involved in touristic activity. In this work, we propose a new method based on mathematical programming to support the elaboration and formatting of touristic itineraries considering variables such as profile of visitors, planning of the trip, visitor preferences and nature attractive. Other parameters are also considered such as costs, distances, equipment valuation (museums, churches, fairs and others), services provided to tourists. We also regard several regions available for visits, the various segments of tourism, the various tourists profile and the variation cost/time throughout the seasons/periods of the year. In this proposed method, we apply mathematical models and optimization techniques to maximize the customer´s satisfaction and minimize the costs involved on the touristic routes. To evaluate the potential of the proposed method in practice, it applied in a case study to build routes in the touristic sights of the City of Belém, State of Pará. For the problems modelling and optimization, we used approaches based on the Prize-Collecting Traveling Salesman Problem (PCTSP) and the Traveling Salesman Problem with Priority Prizes (TSPPP) in order to represent appropriately the problem. We are not aware of other works in literature that studied and proposed optimization methods of touristic routes in this research line. In this study, we applied some statistical techniques for the preparation and analysis of data, such as correspondence analysis type and other important techniques to definition and evaluation of the problem and preparation of parameters required by the optimization models. The results showed how the routes could be optimized highlighting the potential of the proposed method to reduce operating costs as well as to maximize the level of the valuation of services offered to tourists. They also contribute to the strengthening of the regional identity and can help to consolidate more satisfactory and competitive tourist itineraries in the tourism market, as well as the expansion and diversification of tourism.

Regression models for binary response variables are very common in several areas of knowledge. The most used model in these situations is the logistic regression model, which assumes that the logit of the probability of a certain event is a linear function of the predictors variables. When this assumption is not reasonable, it is common to make some changes in the model, such as: transformation of predictor variables and/or add quadratic or cubic terms to the model. The problem with this approach is that it hinders parameter interpretation, and in some areas it is fundamental to interpret the parameters. Thus, a common approach is to categorize the quantitative covariates. This work aims to propose two new classes of categorization methods for continuous variables in binary regression models. The first class of methods is univariate and seeks to maximize the association between the response variable and the categorized covariate using measures of association for qualitative variables. The second class of methods is multivariate and incorporates the predictor variables correlation structure through the joint categorization of all covariates. To evaluate the performance, we applied the proposed methods and four existing categorization methods in 3 credit scoring databases and in two simulated cenarios. The results in the real databases suggest that the proposed univariate class of categorization methods performs better than the existing methods when we compare the predictive power of the logistic regression model. The results in the simulated databases suggest that both proposed classes perform better than the existing methods. Regarding computational performance, the multivariate method is inferior and the univariate method is superior to the existing methods.

The present dissertation work aims to analyze aspects of the pedagogical proposal of the Toca do Futuro, school of application of the Toca Institute. Toca Institute is a non-profit organization that develops actions and research focused on sustainability education. The headquarters of the Toca Institute and the Toca do Futuro school are located at Fazenda da Toca, a rural property that produces organic food, located in the city of Itirapina, in the interior of the State of São Paulo. As a methodological strategy, we analyze some topics of the pedagogical proposal, as a way of delineating the modes of subjectivation that this school intends to engender. By subjectivation modes are understood the subjectivities, the ways of being, the lifestyles, the forms of existence that are produced from discourses, statements, laws, norms, institutions and practices, linked to the relations of knowledge and power that They cross bodies. Among the main theoretical references used in the research are the studies of Nietzsche, Spinoza, Michel Foucault, Gilles Deleuze and Felix Guattari.

For the first time, in the year of 2015, public opinion chose, in a DataFolha survey, corruption as the main Brazilian problem. Given this fact, the present work set out to investigate the media and governmental agenda of anti-corruption policies in the Federal Government during the two mandates of Dilma Rousseff (2011-2016), to recognize critical events in both agendas and to analyze their convergent and divergent points. In order to do so, it was used Baumgartner and Jones' (2006) Punctuated Equilibrium model to demonstrate the variations of the corruption issue within the agendas addressed. This dissertation found critical events such as Operation Lava Jato, which gives meaning to the process of building agendas in this period and explains the variation of agendas in the year of 2014, but it is not possible only in a six-year period identify a significant rupture in the governmental agenda anti-corruption policies, but only a few incremental innovations. Whereas in the media agenda the ruptures of the balance are clearer, since a corruption scandal is enough to generate impact in the volume of the news content and to increase the incidence of the subject in the agenda of the media.

Many recently graduated language teachers complain about the lack of proficiency in the foreign language and the sense of pedagogical unpreparedness for the teaching practice, which produces a kind of "teacher malaise" (ESTEVE, 1999). Thus, the present research discusses the concept of professional identity of Spanish teachers, seeking to understand some aspects of its constitution in a specific context of initial university education. Based on the assumption that the constitution of professional identities is developed in a social and historical process, we sought to understand, along with a group of undergraduates of the Spanish-language teacher training course of the Federal University of São Carlos (UFSCar), which aspects of their initial academic education contributed to the configuration of their identities. From the perceptions of the undergraduates expressed in a semistructured questionnaire, our analyzes point out some of the aspects related to the constitution of their professional identities and contrast these aspects with the curricular proposal of the Pedagogical Project of the course - in order to reflect on the implications that such structuring can have on the constitution of the identities of the Spanish teachers who graduated in UFSCar - and with results of other researches developed in Brazil that study the same theme. The research is characterized as a case study, of exploratory and qualitative nature, whose analyzes are based on the Content Analysis methodology (BARDIN, 1977). The research is based theoretically in the field of Applied Linguistics, more specifically in authors that study the training of teachers as critical professionals (ALMEIDA FILHO, 1999; CASTRO, 1999) and who deal with the theory-practice relationship in language teacher training (VIEIRA-ABRAHÃO, 2001, 2004; ALMEIDA FILHO, 1999; GIMENEZ, 2004, EL-KADRI, 2010). As results, our analysis points to a change in El Kadri's (2010) perspective that the professional identity of Brazilian Spanish teachers is strongly marked by a sense of "lack of linguistic proficiency", since the aspects perceived by the undergraduates of the course researched relates mainly to the "feeling of pedagogical unpreparedness" and, therefore, to aspects related to pedagogical knowledge. Thus, PIBID's proposal as an institutionalized teacher-initiation program that may make it possible for future teachers to build their knowledge about being a teacher in practice and from their own experiences (GIMENEZ, 2004) is relevant, as it may lead to a possible overcoming of the severance that has long been established between theory and practice in teacher-training courses.

Bamboo is a graminaceous plant with diverse possibilities of use that go from feeding to replacement of wood due to its physical and mechanical proprieties. Since such plant is perennial, its cultivation and handling, if performed correctly, can be an opportunity of exploring commercially the material. Since the sixties, the Brazilian government has encouraged silviculture through credit and funding programs to rural producers and in 2011 it was sanctioned the National Politics of Sustainable Handling and to the Cultivation of Bamboo (PNMCB, in Portuguese), stimulating the cultivation of the graminaceous plant by family farmers. Family Farm was created with the purpose of stimulating the cultivation of food by people who were given land rights by Brazilian Agrarian Reform to supply cities and PNMCB may be an alternative to stimulate the diversification of products. Solidary Economy can be a way of organization, generation of earnings, and decrease of poverty to family agriculturists, for it presents a self-managing, horizontal, cooperative, and solidary management structure, in which everyone involved display the same rights and duties, composing a collective enterprise. As an enterprise, it is possible to explore more deeply the marketplace through the sale of differentiated products, thus the concept of Sustainable Territorial Development can assist in competitiveness, earnings increase, besides stimulating the bamboo culture by means of the relations among the actors involved in the same productive chain. Therefore, the general objective of this research is to propose a management model to Solidary Economy Enterprises that are based on Family Farm to promote Sustainable Territorial Development in the confection of bamboo products. To develop the External Dimension that influence the enterprise was used the authors: Buarque (1999), Silva and Batalha (2011), Aaker (2012), and to the Internal Dimensions, was used the authors: GEPAI (2004), Aaker (2012) and the Solidary Economy concepts. The methodology of this research consists of using data collection instruments, such as document reading, searches in data, patents, and government agencies bases, interviews to verify the proposed management model. Also as subsidy to the elaboration of the model it was performed an Organizational Diagnosis to analyze the strong and weak points of the enterprise, based on the involved Internal and External Dimensions and the Organizational Planning to analyze opportunities for the development of the enterprise and identify competitive advantages by means of studying scenarios. The analysis of the External Dimensions allowed recognizing the external influences to the enterprise and its forms of access that allow the development, considering from the economic scenario to public, environmental, social, and technological politics. The analysis of the Internal Dimensions presented in the form of management modules granted the reflection on the formalization of existent information in the enterprise together with the recognition of points to be explored competitively and point to be revalued. With the accomplishment of the study of scenarios through crossing the proposed Dimensions, it was possible to visualize probable future situations that can assist as information for a Strategical Planning, leading a better positioning in marketplace. With this research, we concluded that is possible to identify the deficiencies of a family farm enterprise and, with the proposed model, the knowledge can be gained by farmers, making possible a better organization, management, and especially the identification of competitive advantages for the sector of bamboo.

The groundwater is a resource of which many countries are dependent for the water supply of the population, being the maintenance of these reserves necessary. The anthropic activities can cause the commitment of the water supply. These activities result in changes on the landscape natural patterns, altering the land use. In this regard, there is the need to evaluate if the kind of land use in a region affects the groundwater recharge, and which activities can compromise in the future the aquifers supply. As such, the objective of this study was analyze the changes in land use on the recharge zone of the Botucatu Aquifer and how these changes affects the potential capacity of water infiltration in the ground and increase the local contamination potential. To this end, for the accomplishment of this research, the Chibarro and Ribeirão do Feijão watersheds were selected, located in the São Carlos municipality. First of all, a bibliographic review about this subject was made, followed by a multitemporal analysis of the land use, using the years of 1985, 2000 and 2015, using the Land Change Modeler of IDRISI software. Thus, the land cover scenarios for 2030 were projected, and it was made aquifer vulnerability maps using the DRASTIC methodology and the Susceptibility Index. The next step was the elaboration of maps of the infiltration potential capacity, trough the connection between the local geological materials and land cover. The results showed that both watersheds report trends of urban growth. In Chibarro watershed there was an increase of natural vegetation, while in Ribeirão do Feijão watershed there was a decrease. The vulnerability maps showed that the land use in both areas exercising pressure upon the aquifer may cause contamination. The infiltration potential capacity maps showed that in both watersheds is possible to happen the decrease of this capacity, risking the aquifer recharge.

This research is a feminine writing that seeks to map the path of an educator and researcher involved in the search for an understanding of the politics of subjectivation that cross us, relating them to the education's territory. From a perspective of the chronogenetics (ROLNIK, 1993), memories were recovered that contained in themselves elements representative of the restlessness that moved the research and the composition of its intentions. The methodological question was constructed from the dialogue between the concepts of rhizome (DELEUZE & GUATARRI, 1995), plurality of reasons (PETERS, 2000) and cartography (KASTRUP, STEPS, SCOTLAND, 2012; ROLNIK, 2013). We sought to make the research an experience of the thought exercise, acceptance "feeling" and creation of ways and lines of escape in favor of expanding the potency of life in the territory of education and in the construction of other ways of being in the world that contemplate our needs and affections.

The educational field is the vehicle responsible for the development of the secondary habitus and institutionalized cultural capital of individuals, promoting systematized and formal knowledge, fostering the resources of individuals in social mobility, with schools being responsible for the operationalization of the teaching process and the actions of the teacher, the figure of the agent responsible for enabling the development of students' skills and abilities, through systematized and formalized knowledge and through their teaching practices. However, all the areas of knowledge evaluated in the Enem (INEP, 2014a, 2015) presented very low results, with most averages below 600 points, with the worst rates concentrated in Mathematics: 473.5 in 2014 and 467, 9 in 2015. Situation motivated the search for successful teaching practices of Mathematics teachers, whose objective is to propose an effort to improve Mathematics teaching. Research began from the exploration of the field to find the reference schools and make the description of teaching practices within a qualitative approach, the procedures of data collection were i) the survey of secondary data to identify the reference schools, That is, schools that have the best means among their peers; Ii) the study of multicasos to better understand the teaching practices of teachers, as well as their secondary habitus and institutionalized cultural capital, besides the field in which they are inserted. At the end, it found the existence of agencies (schools) with different teaching models - full-time education, with an average of 8 to 10 hours of classes per day, with full-time teachers. Regular teaching, with average working hours of 4 to 5 hours of classes per day. As for the specialization of these teachers, there is a great disparity, since about 14% of the teachers of the full-time schools and 68% of the regular schools have only a graduation, while the other professionals have some type of specialization. The results show that the teaching practices are similar in the two working regimes, which basically use six teaching strategies: expository classes dialogues; reading and interpretation of mathematical questions; resolution of activities; laboratory experiments; process, systematic and continuous evaluations; and development of projects and participation in olympics that stimulate the competitiveness among students. At the end, it considers as the next challenge to find ways to bring these experiences to teachers, especially in the State of Pará, in order to include in the proposals of public policies.

The present work aims to analyze how female teachers from the first years of elementary school approach on gender, race-ethnicity and religion in the classroom, with a view to discussing the concepts of equality, difference and inequality. It is conceived that the universes of culture and education are connected, being it necessary that the school and its professionals are sensitive to cultures (in plural) present in this space, observing the building of bridges, the stimulus to equal dialogue and the view that the cultural differences are part of democracy, and not a problem to be overcome in the search of homogeneity. For this purpose, the question posed is: “How do teachers from the first years of elementary school approach cultural differences of gender, race-ethnicity and religion in the classroom?” The qualitative methodological approach was used, and semi-structured interviews were performed, as a means of collecting data. Additionally, interculturality was chosen as the theoretical perspective. In this study, ten elementary school teachers from a municipal school in the state of São Paulo were selected. From the analysis of data, it was possible to observe that discriminations in the school space are hardly noticed by the interviewees, and, even when they are, those teachers tend to omit themselves and/or to offer the equality discourse as a democratic principle. From this perspective, it is understood that it is common for the children to be deemed innocent and devoid of prejudice, which makes it unnecessary to promote debates on diversity issues. Such analyses show the necessity that initial and continuing education address cultural diversity issues, in order to raise awareness in those professionals, which often includes admitting one’s own prejudice in order to learn how to handle it. The present work intends to defend that this will be a possible way to face the undeniable conflicts in school, with a view to supporting the constitution of a fairer, more democratic society.

In recent years, the Pará state plywood industry, which had the most important in the country, has been undergone large changes. The main raw material of the activity, that is, the wood, has been no more obtained by means of the exploitation of native forest, but has been gradually replaced by planted forest of paricá, a region native species. In addition to possess the desirable technological characteristics for plywood production, the paricá has fast growth and high yield, which contribute to its use as an input into the analyzed productive chain. In order to better understand that scenario, this paper aimed analyzing the production chain paricá plywood in the state of Pará as a way of proposing policies that could increase its competitiveness in a sustainable manner. Therefore, a theoretical model based on competitiveness drivers was applied, after its adequate adjust to specificities of the investigated area. The following drivers were examined: institutional environment; market structure; governance structure; input and infrastructure; management; technology and environmental sustainability. About the links of the chain, these were: the production of paricá and its transformation into plywood. In the first, that is, in the wood production, the governance structure driver was the one that received better assessments, whereas the technology proved to be the main bottleneck. In the industrialization of plywood by its turn, three drivers presented positive assessment, with emphasis on the availability of inputs at the concerned locale. By other side, the management of factory unit configured as an obstacle to the activity, and was considered inadequate for, usual patterns. In general, the governance structure was the only driver that presented good assessments for both analyzed links, while institutional environment, management and technology constituted in the main sources of inefficiency. Therefore, these three drivers are the main bottlenecks against improving the competitiveness of the paricá plywood production chain in Para. Among the improvements that could be implemented in, public policies, stood out: debureaucratization of access to credit; creation of the State Fund for Forests to encourage research and investments. Among private policies, it was suggested that industries organize themselves by representations and invest in the people qualification and the reform of the technological park.

In face of the changes in the financing parameters of the Open University of Brazil System (UAB) over the course of ten years of its implementation, we established a diagnosis along with the UAB System in the Federal University of São Carlos (UFSCar) – which is composed of five undergraduate courses, two specialization courses and improvement courses in the Distance Education modality – comparing the percentage of resources for the financing of UAB-UFSCar and the percentages of resources destined to the UAB System and the total resource for the same period, destined to the Ministry of Education (MEC) for Higher Education. The objective is to indicate to what extent, in the last 10 years, the resources destined to UAB-UFSCar are proportional to the resources received to finance the UAB and the MEC, making it possible to minimize gaps and to promote a greater vision for the use and planning of the resources destined to Distant Education. For this purpose, data collection was done from information available on government websites and official documents. Subsequently statistical tests were applied to compare the volume and progress of values of the institutions. A change in the volume of resources allocated to UAB-UFSCar in relation to the UAB System and to MEC was noted in the analyzed period, a downward trend was identified over the last two years and the same drop was presented in the amount of MEC's investment resources for the UAB System since the year 2012.
