Esse artigo apresenta reflexões de um estudo de caso que contou com a participação de 225 estudantes de Ensino Médio de uma escola pública do interior do Paraná, com os quais foram desenvolvidas sequências didáticas com a plataforma Google My Maps. Através delas analisamos as potencialidades didáticas do mapeamento colaborativo no que diz respeito à mobilização de conhecimento geográfico poderoso na escola, por meio do balizamento teórico-metodológico oferecido na tipologia de Alaric Maude. Nessa perspectiva, o conhecimento geográfico é visto como um conjunto de referências capazes aprofundar as formas pelas quais os estudantes veem o mundo e a si mesmos e de oferecer condições para a promoção de uma maior consciência para a ação social. Concluiu-se que as técnicas de mapeamento colaborativo mobilizadas e estudadas ao longo da investigação contribuíram para a construção das diferentes dimensões do conhecimento geográfico poderoso, evidenciando o seu potencial para a promoção de diferentes saberes ligados ao pensamento geográfico na educação básica.

“I had become a cow”: Kimura Yūsuke’s Sacred Cesium Ground and Robert Moore’s Figuring Ground. This paper shows how Kimura Yūsuke’s Sacred Cesium Ground (2016; translated 2019) and Robert Moore’s Figuring Ground (2009) expose the biopolitical manipulation of humans and animals thereby demonstrating the possibility of transcending narrow species boundaries. These authors both employ literary techniques such as humorous absurdism, embracing madness, and cultivating activism, while at the same time engaging with the ethical questions raised by critical animal studies. Of particular importance for the comparative discussions of Kimura and Moore’s texts will be Donna Haraway’s identification of herself as a philosopher of the “mud” and her derision of the philosophy of the “sky” or the abstraction employed by Deleuze and Guattari. This paper likewise employs Carol J. Adams’s ideas of the shared absent referent in meat eating and pornography and the development on this thought in Nicole Shukin’s theory of rendering. This paper moreover draws attention to the rupture created through the violence of the slaughterhouse and the slaughter of cattle following 3/11 in Japan to show the suffering of animals and the necessity of acknowledging the shared experience of species. Robert Moore’s Figuring Ground and Kimura Yūsuke’s Sacred Cesium Ground thus allow for the movement from the historical capitalist preoccupation with cattle as commodity to an understanding of cows as part of a trans-species community.

REZUMAT. „Devenisem o vacă”: Sacred Cesium Ground de Kimura Yūsuke și Figuring Ground de Robert Moore. Articolul de față urmărește modul în care Sacred Cesium Ground de Kimura Yūsuke (2016; trad. 2019) și Figuring Ground de Robert Moore (2009) dezvăluie manipularea biopolitică a oamenilor și animalelor, demonstrând astfel posibilitatea de a transcende limitele înguste dintre specii. Autorii utilizează amândoi tropi literari cum ar fi absurdul umoristic, adoptarea nebuniei și cultivarea activismului, abordând totodată probleme etice semnalate de studiile critice despre animale. De o importanță specială pentru discutarea comparată a textelor lui Kimura și Moore este modul în care Donna Haraway se auto-identifică drept filozof al „glodului” și luarea în derâdere a filozofiei „cerului” sau abstracției utilizate de Deleuze și Guattari. De asemenea, lucrarea cooptează ideile lui Carol J. Adams despre referentul comun absent în consumul de carne și în pornografie, și dezvoltările acestei concepții în teoria redării a Nicolei Shukin. Lucrarea mai atrage atenția asupra rupturii create prin violența abatoarelor și masacrarea vitelor după dezastrul din 3/11 din Japonia pentru a evidenția suferința animalelor și necesitatea de a accepta experiența comună a speciilor. Cele două cărți facilitează trecerea de la preocuparea capitalistă istorică față de șeptel ca marfă spre o înțelegere a bovinelor ca parte a unei comunități trans-specie.

The objective of this study is to identify the influence of accreditation on management control systems (MCS) before and after implementation. A survey was performed, with a sample of 92 respondents (professionals responsible for implementing accreditation) and a t-test was used to evaluate the difference between the two samples (before and after accreditation). The results show that after accreditation, management control systems (beliefs, boundary, diagnostic, and interactive control systems) had seen significant improvements, leading to better management and quality of the health services provided. In the face of growing demands from the health sector, analyzing the balanced use of management techniques that improve organizational control in companies is expected to contribute to better service delivery and maximization of generally scarce resources.

Israel is a multi-cultural migration country and its education system face the challenges of equality and inclusion. This is comparative qualitative research based on a model that evaluates the development of intercultural competence. The purpose of the study is to examine the perceptions and attitudes of inter-cultural competence development in two groups of students, in which only one of them was involved in extra-curricular learning. The findings show differences between the two groups. Group A, had gained new knowledge in broader cultural contexts and had a deeper insight on creating a pluralistic professional identity, cultural-emotional commitment and strengthens the relationship between teaching and culture than the Group B. Moreover, the students in group A were more practical and dynamic and created a link between the content of the lesson and the children's origin culture. They allow discussion of controversial issues and encourage the children to share personal stories.

Purpose: This study aimed to analyze the inclusion of corporate governance in the explanation of Fama and French’s (1993, 2015) three and five-factor asset pricing models. Originality/value: This research differs from other works by inserting corporate governance as an explanatory factor in the pricing model of financial assets. Thus, it is intended to contribute to the research area by trying to identify previously unexplored characteristics, as the proposed method, that helps and adds explanation to the pricing models of financial assets, thus helping investors and professionals in the financial area. Design/methodology/approach: The research sample consists of 387 companies listed in B3, in the period between 2012 and 2016. For data analysis, panel data regressions were used according to the methodology of Fama and French studies (1993, 2015) through the Stata software. Findings: The results indicate that corporate governance has a negative impact on the return of the actions of small companies with lower levels of corporate governance and that the reverse is true for large companies with high levels of governance. Other variables were also found to be impacting on stock returns, such as market value, book-to-market, profitability, and investments. / Objetivo: Este estudo teve como objetivo analisar a inclusão da governança corporativa na explicação dos modelos de precificação de ativos de três e cinco fatores de Fama e French (1993, 2015). Originalidade/valor: A presente investigação se diferencia dos demais trabalhos por inserir a governança corporativa como fator explicativo nos modelos de precificação de ativos financeiros. Pretende-se, assim, contribuir para a área de pesquisa ao tentar identificar características antes não exploradas, quanto ao método proposto, que agreguem explicação aos modelos de precificação de ativos financeiros, de modo a ajudar os investidores e profissionais da área financeira. Design/metodologia/abordagem: A amostra de pesquisa é composta por 387 empresas listadas na B3, no período entre 2012 e 2016. Para análise dos dados, utilizaram-se regressões de dados em painel, de acordo com metodologia dos estudos de Fama e French (1993, 2015), por meio do software Stata. Resultados: Os resultados indicam que a governança corporativa impacta negativamente o retorno das ações das pequenas empresas com menores níveis de governança corporativa e que o inverso acontece em relação às grandes empresas, com altos níveis de governança. Outras variáveis também foram encontradas como impactantes no retorno das ações, como valor de mercado, book-to-market, rentabilidade e investimentos.

resumo A proposta deste texto é mostrar a mudança na dinâmica do mercado de trabalho brasileiro no primeiro semestre de 2015, com aumento do desemprego, informalidade, precarização das condições de trabalho e queda da renda, movimentos opostos aos observados na última década. Também indica políticas e medidas a serem tomadas visando reverter esse quadro, considerando a necessidade de articular uma trajetória de transição para o crescimento econômico, orientada pelo fortalecimento do mercado interno de consumo, pelo investimento e incremento e partilha da produtividade.

Canada and Japan share a history of industrial contamination that has resulted in mercury poisoning; the inhabitants of both Minamata, Japan and the Indigenous community of Grassy Narrows, Ontario have suffered from what would come to be known as Minamata disease. Environmental activists, proponents of industrial progress, individuals in the affected communities, and novelists Michiko Ishimure and Thomas King discuss and weigh the possibilities of economic and material progress against the problems of environmental degradation and industrial contamination leading to disease and death for humans and ecosystems. This paper will show how Ishimure and King discuss the possibility of hope and renewal through the tourist industry, but will also question the efficacy of “dark tourism.” Is it possible to balance an ethics of care and respect for those whose lives have been destroyed by industrial contamination with the need of those who remain to make a living through tourism? This paper will explore the fictional possibility offered by King alongside the actual recovery and tourist industry generated in the aftermath of the Minamata poisoning and subsequent clean up efforts. Is it possible to reimagine and reclaim industrial wreckage as sites of pleasure and recreation? Do these regenerated sites of industrial destruction promote the common good or further victimize the individuals and communities destroyed in the name of progress?

ABSTRACTThe period for the germination test of Surinam grass seeds established by the Rules for Seeds Testing is 28 days, considered too lengthy by producers, venders, and seed analysis laboratories. So, the objective of this research was to evaluate the possibility of reducing the time for the germination test of Surinam grass seeds and to establish a method for dormancy breaking and the ideal temperature. Ten seed lots were submitted to the following treatments to overcome seed dormancy: control; substrate moistening with 0.2% KNO3; and scarification with sulfuric acid (98% 36 N) for 15 minutes. After the treatments, the lots were submitted to seed water content, germination and tetrazolium tests. During the germination test, conducted with four replicates of 100 seeds per treatment for 28 days, two conditions of alternating temperatures (20-35 °C and 15-35 °C) with 8 hours of light were tested. Attempting to determine the test end date, daily counts of the number of normal seedlings were made and for each lot, treatment, and temperature, a growth curve for the evaluation of germination was adjusted. The segmented regression model parameter estimations were calculated for each treatment. The germination test of Braquiaria decumbensseeds may be evaluated in 12 days after sowing using alternating temperatures of 20-35 °C and without any treatment to overcome dormancy.
