Análise da eficiência de protocolo de indicadores de funcionalidade ecológica como ferramenta para o monitoramento de áreas de restauração em floresta estacional semi-decidual
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2017-07-12) Andrade, Fabio Augusto Alencar de; Piña-Rodrigues, Fátima Conceição Márquez; https://lattes.cnpq.br/1475369713141675; https://lattes.cnpq.br/5116451530958708
The monitoring of areas in process of restoration is a permanent challenge to be studied. Ecological integrity should assess whether the characteristics of the restored area, its size, its layout in the landscape, floristic composition and structure allow the ecological processes that can persist in the long term to function. Therefore, indicators must contain several measurable parameters such as replicability, sensibility to changes over time and easy to apply and interpret. This work intends to discuss and analyze multicriteria protocol developed with the aim of identifying efficient indicators to evaluate the establishment of ecological processes essential for the self-sustainability of the restoration. In order to do so, we analyzed indicators that reflect the stability and resilience of the area related to diversity (diversity, equitability, richness) and community structure (height, diameter, bifurcation, stratification) and functional diversity (epiphytes, herbaceous and regenerating soil cover, % of species by ecological group, height and % of cover area with litter). The reliability to maintain productivity in the long term was evaluated by: (A) management and protection (presence of termites / ants and vines), (b) anthropic impact (presence of grazing, trails and paths and exotic species), and (c) incidence of light in the soil and 1 m from this. The protocol was applied in two reference areas (fragment of Seasonal Forest at the initial stage of regeneration and one restoration at 6 years) and in 10 restoration models with two years of age, with variation in the proportion of pioneers and non-pioneers and in different densities. The main problem of the protocol of indicators was its application and interpretation in the field, requiring training for its use. The indicators were selected from the analysis of main components and, among them, 61% were redundant or with low sensitivity for the conditions evaluated. The most sensitive indicators for the differences between the areas were soil cover with herbaceous-regenerants and litter, light incidence in the soil and the proportion of non-pioneers. The main characteristic of this protocol used in this work is the ease of its application, but it needs the previous taxonomic knowledge of the species used and their respective ecological functions.
Investigação empírica sobre os elementos para a medição de desempenho em sustentabilidade social
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2017-07-12) Carneiro, Mariana Pereira; Martins, Roberto Antonio; https://lattes.cnpq.br/3518820028045730; https://lattes.cnpq.br/0175024433215094
The implementation of sustainable practices has been driving changes in business performance measurement systems, raising opportunities and challenges. Following the Triple Bottom Line concept, this thesis addresses the social dimension of sustainability. The primary focus is the external social sustainability and the impact measurement of sustainable social practices. Thus, the aim is to propose elements of a structural framework for measuring the sustainable social performance. The theoretical propositions are based on a literature review that grounded the elements proposition. The framework links the elements of social objectives deployed from stakeholder demands identification, short and long-term social goals, social sustainability performance measures for measuring the impact, and measurement of internal and external aspects of social sustainability. The research design was the multiple case studies in companies with different level sustainable social practices. Empirical evidence from case studies support both the theoretical propositions and the proposition of elements for the social sustainability performance measurement. Such elements allow measuring the social impact of sustainable social practices and identifying the stakeholders' role in selecting the sustainable social performance measurement. Those results are the first step in both improving comprehension and proposing the elements to support the social performance measurement.
Coalizão de governo e processo legislativo : controle de agenda e suas consequências na produção legislativa dos deputados
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2017-07-12) Souza, Gustavo Reis Sabbag de; Braga, Maria do Socorro Sousa; https://lattes.cnpq.br/2311094074614215; https://lattes.cnpq.br/1328083157879927
The objective of this work is to investigate the characteristics of the legislative production of the deputies from 1995 to 2010 and to seek indications of association between this and government coalitions. The problem is as follows: what are the characteristics of the legislative production of deputies from 1995 to 2010? Are these characteristics associated with Executive coalition qualities? The argument is that the laws of the deputies are regulatory and of high scope due to the control of the legislative agenda that the Executive Power exercises and that these characteristics does associate with the coalitions. The methodology is mixed, with a qualitative classification, quantitative descriptive analysis and the use of descriptive statistics and statistical inference methods. It was analyzed all the legislation with divided competence proposed by deputies and approved in the period from 1995 to 2010 (Projetos de lei e projetos de lei complementar), and classified according to their subject and scope. Altogether, there are 535 laws that are segregated by legislature to be compared with each other, with government coalitions and with the party of the president so that as hypotheses raised are to be checked. Finally, it is intended, from the data, to elucidate the role reserved to the parliament in the institutional regime in force in Brazil regarding the legislative production, in addition to contribute to a better understanding of the consequences of coalition presidentialism for a relationship among the powers.
O corpo litúrgico do Estado - um ensaio sobre a disputa pela soberania
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2017-07-12) Augusto, Gabriel Luiz; Riscal, Sandra Aparecida; https://lattes.cnpq.br/0328618752218708; https://lattes.cnpq.br/5629561834911404
This thesis aims to investigate the intersection between the theological-political sphere and the subjectivation process in the modern era. Through genealogical procedures, it was intended to inquire the birth/origination of fundamental concepts in the field of contemporary theology-politics, such as sovereignty, State and bare life which are present in the late Middle Age and the beginning of modern era. That was done by analyzing how the modern State machinery and its images are structured and function through subjectivizing discourses. The analysis of the narratives of the concept of “glory”, alongside to the concept of “sovereignty”, are going to be the guiding lights of this thesis, through the perspectives that have helped to detach the concept of “sovereignty” from the traditionally conveyed images in relation to the State and to the modern legal order.
