Este artigo tem por objetivo promover uma análise crítica acerca dos Planos Nacionais de Reforma Agrária (PNRA) elaborados entre os anos de 1985 e 2003, de maneira a destacar o arcabouço paradigmático responsável pela consolidação das diferentes perspectivas de desenvolvimento para o campo brasileiro (PNRA I, II PNRA-MDA e II PNRA-PLÍNIO). Para tanto, analisamos as principais concepções acerca dos conceitos de camponês e agricultor familiar, além dos contornos e características definidoras de cada Plano, o que fundamenta a qualificação paradigmática aqui proposta. Por fim, procedemos uma análise comparativa entre os diferentes PNRA’s, de modo a revelar variadas perspectivas, interesses e “visões de mundo” que referenciaram a elaboração de cada um dos Planos aqui analisados.

In Antarctica, the severe climatic conditions and the thick ice sheet that covers the largest and most internal part of the continent make it particularly difficult to systematically carry out geophysical and geodetic observations on a continental scale. It prevents the comprehensive understanding of both the onshore and offshore geology as well as the relationship between the inner part of East Antarctica (EA) and the coastal sector of Victoria Land (VL). With the aim to reduce this gap, in this paper multiple geophysical dataset collected since the 1980s in Antarctica by Programma Nazionale di Ricerche in Antartide (PNRA) were integrated with geodetic observations. In particu-lar, the analyzed data includes: (i) Geodetic time series from Trans Antarctic Mountains DEFormation (TAMDEF), and Victoria Land Network for DEFormation control (VLNDEF) GNSS stations installed in Victoria Land; (ii) the integration of on-shore (ground points data and airborne) gravity measurements in Victoria Land and marine gravity surveys performed in the Ross Sea and the nar-row strip of Southern Ocean facing the coasts of northern Victoria Land. Gravity data modelling has improved the knowledge of the Moho depth of VL and surrounding the offshore areas. By the integration of geodetic and gravitational (or gravity) potential results it was possible to better con-strain/identify four geodynamic blocks characterized by homogeneous geophysical signature: the Southern Ocean to the N, the Ross Sea to the E, the Wilkes Basin to the W, and VL in between. The last block is characterized by a small but significant clockwise rotation relative to East Antarctica. The presence of a N-S to NNW-SSE 1-km step in the Moho in correspondence of the Rennick Geo-dynamic Belt confirms the existence of this crustal scale discontinuity, possibly representing the tectonic boundary between East Antarctica and the northern part of VL block, as previously pro-posed by some geological studies.

Sull'evento/conferenza dal titolo “Da Trieste ai Poli: i viaggi che hanno portato la ricerca triestina agli estremi del pianeta”, che si è svolta il 31 ottobre scorso nell’ambito di Trieste e la Scienza - mostra interattiva e multimediale, allestita presso la stazione ferroviaria di Trieste nello spazio gestito dallo SISSA MediaLab dedicato a “Trieste città della conoscenza”

In order to make inferences on the geodynamics of Antarctica, geodetic and gravimetric maps derived from past and new observations can be used. This paper provides new insights into the geodynamics of Antarctica by integrating data at regional and continental scales. In particular, signatures of geodynamic activity at a regional extent have been investigated in Victoria Land (VL, Antarctica) by means of Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) permanent station observations, data from the VLNDEF (Victoria Land Network for Deformation control) discontinuous network, and gravity station measurements. At the continental scale, episodic GNSS observations on VLNDEF sites collected for 20 years, together with continuous data from the International GNSS Service (IGS) and Polar Earth Observing Network (POLENET) sites, were processed, and the Euler pole position assessed with the angular velocity of the Antarctic plate. Both the Bouguer and the free-air gravity anomaly maps were obtained by integrating the available open-access geophysics dataset, and a compilation of 180 gravity measurements collected in the VL within the Italian National Program for Antarctic Research (PNRA) activities. As a result, new evidence has been detected at regional and continental scale. The main absolute motion of VL is towards SE (Ve 9.9 &plusmn, 0.26 mm/yr, Vn &minus, 11.9 &plusmn, 0.27 mm/yr) with a pattern similar to the transforms of the Tasman and Balleny fracture zones produced as consequence of Southern Ocean spreading. Residual velocities of the GNSS stations located in VL confirm the active role of the two main tectonic lineaments of the region, the Rennick&ndash, Aviator and the Lillie&ndash, Tucker faults with right-lateral sense of shear. The resulting VL gravity anomalies show a NW region characterized by small sized Bouguer anomaly with high uplift rates associated and a SE region with low values of Bouguer anomaly and general subsidence phenomena. The East and West Antarctica are characterized by a different thickness of the Earth&rsquo, s crust, and the relative velocities obtained by the observed GNSS data confirm that movements between the two regions are negligible. In East Antarctica, the roots of the main subglacial highlands, Gamburtsev Mts and Dronning Maud Land, are present. The Northern Victoria Land (NVL) is characterized by more scattered anomalies. These confirm the differences between the Glacial Isostatic Adjustment (GIA) modeled and observed uplift rates that could be related to deep-seated, regional scale structures.

Le misure periodiche e permanenti di osservatorio geodetico, in continuita' con una serie più che ventennale di dati, hanno avuto lo scopo di determinare l’infrastruttura geodetica e di rilevare e monitorare la Terra Vittoria settentrionale. Viene presentata una sintesi delle principali attività condotte recentemente nell’ambito del Progetto di Geodesia del PNRA (Programma Nazionale di Ricerche in Antartide) e vengono presentati i risultati raggiunti nelle ultime campagne di misura pubblicati negli ultimi anni
