The phenomenon of land grabbing, or foreign land grabbing, has attracted international
attention due to the contradictions and social reactions that involve the progress of this
process. The phenomenon generally affects traditional communities in poor or developing
countries, however, it has been identified that it is also affecting traditional communities
in developed countries such as the USA, Canada, Australia. Thus, this dissertation seeks
to analyze the foreignization of land in the USA, that is, the USA as a target for land
investments. Starting from the contradictions that involve the acquisition of land by
foreigners, the research has the central objective of understanding why social movements
cooperate against the foreignization of land based on the actions of the US Food
Sovereignty Alliance. In this way, specific objectives were defined to analyze the land
foreignization in the USA, to study the literature on the transnational cooperation of
global civil society and to analyze the social reactions to the land foreignization in the
USA. To achieve the proposed objectives, in the methodological scope, a qualitative
research was developed, using the deductive method of analysis. The analysis techniques
used were bibliographic review, document analysis, in addition to field research for
conducting semi-structured interviews, which also took place in a virtual manner. After
constructing the panorama of land alienation in the USA, identifying the scale of the
phenomenon, the main actors, areas of investment and socioeconomic consequences, we
sought to present the approaches of transnational rural movements, globalization from
below and Transnational Advocacy Networks (TAN) as main approaches to understand
the relationship between the Independent Variable (VI) and the Dependent Variable
(DV). Based on the analysis of the USFSA's performance, we identified that social
movements cooperate against the foreignization of land due to the need to respond
globally to international private actors who tend to limit access to land by traditional
communities. Cooperation, which takes place transnationally, can be considered as the
main action strategy of these movements that seek support, solidarity and sharing
information and experiences at the international level, without neglecting the valorization
of grassroots communities.

This dissertation evaluates air traffic controllers safety culture within Infraero. Safety culture
can be understood as the extent to which individuals priorize and value safety within a
organization. In the context of Air Traffic Management, enhanced safety culture contributes to
prevent aeronautical accidents, as people act according to Safety Management Systems (SMS)
requirements. The theoretical framework followed in this work, starts explaining Infraero's role
within the Brazilian Airspace Control System (SISCEAB). After that, we analyzed safety
culture concepts in different areas, and then we checked the approaches adopted in the
interesting context, aiming to outline the theoretical model of this research and the measurement
scale used. Methodological procedures for adapting and validating a pre-existing scale were
carried out, allowing safety culture assessment within Brazilian context through 22 items scale,
distributed in the following dimensions: Flexible Culture, Informed Culture, Learning and
Reporting Culture, Just Culture and Attitudes of Managers towards safety. The data obtained
from 98 Air Traffic Professionals sample allowed to detect low perception levels for aspects
related to Flexible Culture, where we proposed actions for improvement. Satisfactory results
were verified along Attitudes of Managers related to safety and Just Culture dimensions.

In the current global dynamic, city networks have become important spaces for participation and sharing of policies, successful results of the gains resulting from the evolution and consequent ease of communications between the various actors of the international system. Networks such as the Latin American Federation of Cities, Municipalities and Municipal Associations (FLACMA), MERCOCIDADES and many others have emerged in order to serve as a space for bringing together issues common to the aspirations that involve their participants. Within this current framework, city networks therefore present themselves as an advantageous south-south cooperation mechanism, as they offer a capillarized and horizontal structure, where these spaces have the capacity to provide a dialogue between peers, facilitating processes transfers / dissemination of good practices, which enhances management strategies and the application of resources in a more rational and efficient way. In this work, therefore, the intention is to explore the theme about the MERCOCIDADES Network based on a look at the bank's best practices initiative in order to verify if this Network would indeed correspond to the expectations of studies on policy diffusion.

Show Summary
-
The present study has as main objective to analyze the impact of trust and trustworthiness in the intention of adopting and using electronic government services. To meet this objective, it is proposed to answer the following question: what is the influence of trust and trustworthiness in the intention to adopt and use electronic government services? For this, a distinction was made between the concepts of trust and trustworthiness in the electronic government literature, in addition was made a review of the models of adoption and use of services in general and of electronic government in particular. The study proposed an e-government adoption model applied to the Brazilian context and which considered the concepts of trust and trustworthiness. The equation modeling technique was used and applied through partial least square with the application of a questionnaire composed of 36 items with 11-point Likert scales that were arranged in 10 constructs adapted from the specialized literature on the topic. The questionnaire was applied entirely online. The study confirmed 9 of the 12 hypotheses that were suggested. Among the hypotheses that have been confirmed are 2 hypotheses that address that trust in government and trust in the internet are necessary factors for the creation of trust in electronic government. Hypotheses that stated that ability, integrity and experience are important factors in building trust in government were confirmed by the study, while hypotheses that addressed benevolence and disposition to trust as important factors for trust in government have not been confirmed. This result demonstrates the importance of addressing trust in the process of formulating and implementing public policies. In addition, the study also confirmed the hypothesis that states that trust in e-government mitigates the risk perceived by citizens in relation to e-government services. In addition, the hypotheses also confirmed that e-government and the perceived risk are important for citizens' intention to use in relation to e-government services. Finally, these results demonstrate the necessary factors for the creation of trust and that it, according to the literature consulted at study, is essential for citizens to choose to use these types of government services.

This study aimed to analyze the context and the social learning process of judicial analysts in the notary management of the Paraíba Court of Justice (TJ-PB). The crisis of inefficiency in the Judiciary requires results-oriented action, especially in terms of administrative management and prioritization of the First Degree of Jurisdiction (Resolution CNJ n. 194/2014). Based on understanding the relevance of judicial registries as key pieces in the search for a faster and more effective Justice system, to understand the social learning process of notary administrators appears as a relevant contribution to training and development of managerial skills in the TJ- PB, in line with the National People Management Policy within the Judiciary Branch (Resolution CNJ n. 240/2016). The theoretical framework addressed the Social Theory of Learning, the social context of managerial learning and the Administration of Justice. The research was guided by a qualitative and exploratory approach, in an interpretive perspective, and used the Thematic Oral History method with the application of semi-structured interviews. Eight analysts working in different notary offices across the state participated in the survey. The analysis process gave rise to three themes, and each revealed categories of meanings, analyzed in a comprehensive and interpretive way. The results made it possible to characterize the context with several unfavorable factors to a qualified and efficient performance of notary administrators, noting, above all, a gap in technical and professional training and the development of managerial skills related to notary management. However, in view of this conjuncture that a tendency to help each other was revealed, so that the interviewees themselves realized that it is within a context of social participation and practice that learning occurs, configuring a social process, and not simply cognitive. The relationships and social interaction pointed to implications on the notary management, so that the engagement and active social participation of the members enables effective learning and ensures a good performance of the judicial unit. From a culture of collaboration, two strategies emerged from the learning process, with social interaction as an essential element: the contact between beginners and veterans within the notary office, as well as networks of information and collective experiences shared with managers from other offices, including the existence of communities of practice. Thus, assimilating the organizational environment as a learning space, the panorama presented allowed us to conclude by the need to encourage actions that assist in the learning processes and development of managerial competencies of the judicial analysts, so that the area of People Management and the Superior School of the Judiciary become fundamental in the conduction of this purpose, including the development and implementation of a Management Learning Program at TJ-PB.

Issues related to social well-being are gaining more and more notoriety in society and behavior change is configured as a key aspect for improvements to occur in this sense. Food waste is configured as a Wicked Problem, as it presents several damages, environmental, economic and social, its causes are not well structured and its effects are difficult to identify. The present study seeks to analyze the factors that influence food waste at the domestic level from a social marketing perspective. To this end, a theoretical framework was built addressing social marketing and its application in health and food, in addition to a topic dealing with food waste in the supply chain and aspects of food practices. The questionnaire was used as a research instrument composed of six constructs, the application occurred through social networks and 423 responses were obtained. It was observed that the culture of abundant food is present in the lives of the individuals surveyed, but families do not have a strong aversion to reheated food, individuals have an awareness of price from intermediate to high and understand that food waste significantly impacts the family budget . In addition, they consider the time insufficient to carry out their daily activities and eating habits are in agreement with aspects of food planning. Individuals consider wasting little food, despite the culture of abundance and insufficient time, this can be explained mainly by the adoption of food planning habits. In view of this, the results of the research bring relevant contributions for providing information for the elaboration of social marketing campaigns and public policies that aim to reduce domestic food waste.

INSTITUTIONAL DIMENSIONS ASSOCIATED WITH GOVERNMENT DATA OPPENNES: A CROSS-NATIONAL ANALYSIS

Show Summary
-
In order to meet global demands for greater transparency, citizen participation and collaboration, the Open Government Partnership (OGP) was formed in 2011. Following this and other events, governments around the world have, gradually, adopted a new information model generated by the public sector. This new model is known as Open Government Data (OGD) and determines the availability of data without legal or technical restrictions, enabling the information to be reused with the purpose of creating new products and services. With the gradual adoption of the OGD in the national public administrations, the Academy has mobilized to investigate which are the benefits and barriers in the process for opening government data. However, despite considerable contributions in the literature, its possible to affirm that there is a lack of analyses that take in consideration the influence of institutional factors on the OGD. Given this scenario, the goal of this study is to investigate the relationship between the institutional dimensions and the levels of government data openness in different countries. To reach that goal, the research follows a quantitative approach, from the standpoint of a cross-sectional study design research. In regards to the operationalization of the variables, we have used secondary data referring to 2016 and made available in sources such as the Web Foundation, the UN statistical division, the OGP and the V-Dem Institute. Furthermore, the analysis took place in two stages, a descriptive analysis and a multivariate analysis, with the application of a multiple linear regression model. The results found that, up to the date of this analysis, most countries were in the initial stages of their OGD initiatives and that institutional dimensions such as the degree of existence of a OGD-specific policy, the development of e- government programs, the participation of the country in the OGP and the administrative quality of government are factors directly related to the level of data openness in each country. With these results, therefore, its possible to conclude that institutional dimensions matter when it comes to explaining the performance of governments to opening their data, and that together with the technical and management challenges, the OGD initiatives also imply great institutional challenges for national public organizations.

This dissertation analyzes Sino-Brazilian cooperation from a national perspective, as an extension of the Grand Strategy of emerging powers, in the International System. The study considers that this cooperation, in the space sector, appears as an opportunity for both countries to approach and formulate compatible solutions, between their similarities and their challenges; however, it gradually evolves asymmetrically among the actors, based on domestic dynamics. In this context, it is evident the distinction in the performance between Brazil and China, throughout the cooperation, in favor of their objectives, as the asymmetries materialized. This allows the evaluation of cooperation, as an act of interest to the res publica, pointing out its errors and successes and possible improvements, in the Brazilian performance. Since, CBERS was the first technically successful international cooperation program, in the space area, between emerging countries. To this end, this dissertation interacts with the perspectives of the primary agents of Public Policy, the executing institutions and the State, as the coordinator of the actions of domestic actors. Which allows to underline, in Brazil, strictly personal performances, domestic institutional disputes and economic contingencies, as important extrinsic factors, in this cooperation. Thus, it is possible to verify the intricacies of this cooperation and the performance of the actors involved. Therefore, the case of the China Brazil Earth Resources Satellite Program is analyzed, in the context of the war-peace continuum, from the perspective of medium and long-term state planning.

Studies on human milk donation associated with the knowledge of social marketing theory and action enrich the field of study, making it possible for the institutions involved to progress through the information obtained. Thus, the general objective of this work is to analyze how the Human Milk Banks act in favor of the donation of human milk from the perspective of the agents involved. For this, the research had a qualitative and exploratory approach, being divided into field research and documentary research. The interviewed subjects were human milk donors, those responsible for recipients, non-donor mothers and professionals from the HMB, totaling 22 interviews. In general, it was identified that the main actions taken by the professionals of the HMB suffer structural difficulties, such as partnerships with primary care and financial and material resources, interfering in the dissemination of information about the donation. This all causes disparities between the numbers of donors and recipients, guided by the lack of knowledge about the milk donation process. These circumstances indicate that it is essential to reformulate the information system on human milk donation, starting with the implementation of the topic on the women's health and family health agenda, considering that the results point to the need to disseminate information even in the pre -natural, so that women can absorb information properly, generating awareness and facilitating adherence.

This research sought to analyze the projects financed by the World Bank in the state of Paraíba from the concept of Institutional Capacity. Its objective is to investigate how this concept is approached in the current project, the Sustainable Rural PB, in what way it is perceived by the project's implementers and how it comes to alter the bureaucratic apparatus of the organs of the State of Paraíba. For this reason, we base ourselves on the hypothesis that the introjection of this concept is capable of altering the bureaucratic structure and the organs and institutions of the state. In this sense, through qualitative research, an exploratory type study was carried out through documentary research and interviews. The method used made it possible to analyze through the perceptions of the project implementers from the conceptual dimensions, implementation and institutional arrangements, measurement and challenges of Institutional Capacity. This study sought to broaden the agenda of capacity research in institutions and focused on the analysis of implementing bureaucracies, especially to understand how concepts are absorbed, incorporated and practiced within these institutions. The results found can be highlighted the recognition by the actors of the importance of strengthening Institutional Capacity in projects. Another aspect that deserves to be highlighted are the institutional arrangements and partnerships created to execute and implement the project, as a determining factor to achieve the objectives. As a result, the challenge to achieve Institutional Capacity is the institutional awareness that would become the shared and incorporated responsibility of the actors involved. The study revealed and confirmed the hypothesis that for the attainment of Institutional Capacity the bureaucratic apparatus of the state will not only have to be modified to meet the bank's requirements, but it will also be necessary to create new structures, new arrangements and appropriation of the bank's methodology as a routine work methodology of the institutions and agencies of the State of Paraíba.

This dissertation aimed to map the allocation of resources and the degree of efficiency of their use to public expenditure, in the period from 2015 to 2018, occurred in the management of the Federal University of Paraíba (UFPB), comparing the expenditure with active personnel (teachers and administrative technicians) in the sixteen Teaching Centers, to measure allocation and evaluate the efficiency of spending. The research carried out was quantitative and classified as a case study, having as subjects of the research the data collected in the organ's Rectory, in the Accounting System of the Union (SIAFI) and in the Teaching Centers themselves. The data were analyzed and interpreted by means of data envelopment analysis (DEA), which aimed to evaluate the efficiency related to the remuneration of civil servants and the performance coefficient of graduate students in graduation, in the face-to-face modality. At the institutional level, our analysis resulted in the possibility of a broad understanding of how to invest the resource in personnel and what would be the return for the entity. However, through the results achieved, it was possible to determine trends and indicators that could be used as aid tools for decision making. Finally, we conclude that there was a decrease in the capital resources available in most of the Centers, with an asymmetric distribution of resources among the Centers, without taking into account individual efficiency (final product - graduate student), since the transfer of resources it is due more to the specifics of the courses than to the planning factors. Furthermore, we also concluded that: although the scenario was an economic crisis, UFPB managed, as far as possible, to successfully execute capital expenditures, continuing the equipment (constant and necessary) that public assets need to offer decent, free and quality education.

Show Summary

This research had as general goal to make an analysis of the public security policy implemented and based on the community police philosophy, from the residents of the Altiplano, Bancários and Mandacaru neighborhoods, in João Pessoa/PB. The theme is notorious for having turned its philosophy into a strategy adopted by police institutions worldwide; in Brazil it started to be acted on more effectively, since the end of the last century, for contemplating changes in the concept of public security and institutional transformation. Its study is relevant, as it presents the results of the perceptions regarding the philosophy used by the community police in three communities with diverse characteristics in terms of economic and social level, in terms of their demographic locations and their history of crime and violence. Its importance is reinforced in the evidence presented in the literature, which portrays the non-participation of the residents of the neighborhoods served due to different public factors. Relevance and opportunity are characterized by the need to expand the debate in the search for a solution to public security problems and, in particular, the necessary involvement of the scientific community. To understand the residents' perceptions regarding the practice of community policing adopted in the neighborhoods of this exploratory research, a survey was carried out to describe the phenomenon in a sample of 93 residents. The questionnaire structured in 4 parts, composed of 35 questions formatted in frequency scales of fixed response, was applied between March and July 2020. The choice of neighborhoods was made by the researcher's convenience. The tested hypotheses were limited to: i) analyzing the distance between discourse and practice around this public security philosophy; ii) identify the degree of effective participation of residents in community policing; and iii) assess how they perceive integration with the Community Police. The results revealed that there is a relative distance between discourse and practice, being just a continuation of the traditional form of policing; that there is no necessary citizen participation at any stage of the project; and that the respondents do not perceive as positive the interaction between Community Police and citizens of the surveyed neighborhoods. Due to its exploratory essence, this research did not seek to generalize its results because it only reflects the vision of the residents of the surveyed neighborhoods. In addition to the present limitations, beside to the exploratory methodology and instruments limited to the sample size, the non-inclusion of security agents is added as an obstacle to the study, due to institutional restrictions, which would provide a broader discussion on the theme and knowledge of perceptions of these other Community Police participants. It is recommended to expand the study to the other neighborhoods of João Pessoa/PB and to raise awareness of higher security agencies to participate in this effort for knowledge.

PARTICIPATION OF BRAZILIAN SOCIAL ORGANIZATIONS IN THE PRODUCTION OF GENDER GUIDELINES IN REAF-MERCOSUR
-
Date: Sep 4, 2020

Time: 10:00

Show Summary
-
REAF was created in 2004 with the aim of raising a dialogue for proposing public policies for family farming in Mercosur countries. It was the result of the articulation of rural movements in South America, represented by the Confederação de Organizações de Produtores Familiares do Mercosul Ampliado (COPROFAM) and also a favorable political moment in the region, from the elections of progressive governments in the early 2000s. The bloc began to attach greater importance to the social, structural and democratic deficit, opening spaces for dialogue with civil society, including REAF, which demonstrated, until 2014, a positive example of social participation for the region. The constitution of the Gender work group (GT) was proposed by the Brazilian government, which demonstrated a major role in developing the agenda for rural South American women. Thus, this dissertation seeks to analyze the scope of the participation of Brazilian social organizations in the production of REAF's gender policy guidelines, between 2004 and 2018. With this objective, we seek to analyze the ways in which these groups have taken their demands to the regional sphere and dialogued with governments and other organizations, to draw attention to gender issues in rural areas, in addition to understanding how conjunctural changes have affected the participation of these groups. The analysis of the Brazilian case is carried out based on the participation of the Movimento Interestadual das Quebradeiras de Coco Babaçu (MIQCB), Movimento da Mulher Trabalhadora Rural do Nordeste (MMTR-NE), Confederação Nacional dos Trabalhadores Agricultores e Agricultoras Familiares (CONTAG) and Conselho Nacional das Populações Extrativistas (CNS), organizations most often over the years in regional meetings. The methodology used is of a qualitative nature. This is a case study of social participation in a regional government organization. We work with the theoretical perspective of Social Participation in Regional Integration, with some contributions from feminist literature on the political subject and rural social movements. Procedural methods were document analysis, especially minutes of meetings and other official publications; semi-structured interviews directed to mixed and rural women's organizations that have a gender agenda and representatives of the Brazilian government under the Ministry of Agrarian Development (MDA) and Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock and Supply (MAPA); and observation, from the fieldwork developed at the national (in Brazil) and regional meetings of the XXX REAF, in May and June 2019, respectively. We used the Content Analysis technique and the textual analysis software IRaMuTeQ, which made it possible to infer that Brazilian organizations played a crucial role in the construction of the agenda, especially between 2004-2014, mainly because they were already presente in spaces of social participation at the national level, and already articulated with other movements in Latin America. The scope of participation is related to the proposition of public policies for rural women and Family Farming as a whole, denouncing acts, discussing and surveying a unified agenda for organizations, articulating networks and obtaining visibility, which have even influenced participants from other countries, both formally and informally. On the other hand, from 2015, regional political crises have negatively influenced the development of actions and social participation, especially with the emergence of conservative governments, which has reduced the incidence of Brazilian movements on the actions of the GT, mainly because the participation was significantly reduced.

WHAT DOES A FEDERAL LEVEL ADVICE DO? Analysis of decision making by the National Council of Social Assistance (CNAS) - 2003-2018

Show Summary

This dissertation aims to analyze the decision-making production of the National Council of
Social Assistance (CNAS), exploring the decisions produced over the period of 2003-2018. It
was also proposed to discuss the construction of the social assistance sector and how CNAS
inserts yourself in this construction, to classify decisions by types of decisions, to identify
decision patterns and to draw explanatory hypotheses considering endogenous and exogenous
factors to the council. This issue is part of the debate of participatory institutions (PIs) and is
part of the study agenda that deals with the effectiveness of PIs. The agenda has advanced to
answer questions of co-variations between IPs and outcomes (outcomes) on public policies. In
order to contribute to the debate, we opted for a different strategy, to analyze decisions
(outputs) as a research limit and as a necessary condition for the occurrence of effects
(outcomes). We used the exploratory and descriptive methodology, with a quantitative and
qualitative approach, and a case study. For the analysis, we consider the decisions produced
by CNAS that are expressed in the form of homologated resolutions, collected through the
public and official platform of the council, and classified by the typology based on the public
policy cycle model, in the version adapted by Gurza Lavalle, Guicheney, Vello and Rodrigues
(2018). We note that in the period 2003-2018, CNAS published 550 normative resolutions.
The results revealed that the majority (38.7%) gathers the decisions that self-regulate the
board, which deal with management, definition of rules and internal themes to CNAS itself,
followed by decisions that affect the moments of planning and definition of general criteria in
the social assistance policy, with 36.2%; these two predominant types of decisions make up
the board's decision-making pattern. We observed that when acquiring institutional maturity,
with more age in its life cycle, CNAS has more active moments focused on the definition of
general policy criteria. Throughout the 16 years of analytical analysis, CNAS maintained
regularity of decisions and the years 2006 (59 resolutions) and 2007 (48 resolutions) were the
moments when the council appears most, with high production of decisions. Almost ten years
after the peak of production, there was a marked variation in the number of decisions taken (14 resolutions in 2015), as well as the year 2017, with 22 resolutions. The work inquired
about the incidence of CNAS in public social assistance policy and the case highlights that
even though the council spends more of its energies on self-regulation and self-management
decisions, the proximity in percentage terms to the policy definition decisions shows that this
does not it prevented substantive public policy issues from being discussed and decided,
which shows that the CNAS played a fundamental role in structuring the social assistance
system and public policy.

A presente pesquisa de dissertação tem como objetivo mapear as decisões produzidas pelo Conselho das Cidades, no período de 2004 a 2017, publicadas através de suas resoluções; classificá-las de acordo com a Tipologia de Análise de Padrões Decisórios desenvolvida por Gurza Lavalle, Voigt e Serafim (2016), atualizada e adaptada por Gurza Lavalle, Guicheney, Vello e Rodrigues (2018); e verificar a existência e variação de padrões decisórios nesta instituição participativa, explorando fatores explicativos (endógenos e exógenos) para a existência e mudança de tais padrões. Na metodologia utilizou-se a modalidade de estudo de caso, de caráter descritivo e exploratório, e as abordagens: qualitativa, com uso de técnicas bibliográficas, documental, e a aplicação da Tipologia de Análise de Padrões Decisórios; e quantitativa, com uso das técnicas estatísticas para auxiliar a análise dos dados. A análise voltou-se a produção decisória do Conselho das Cidades, no período de 2004 a 2017, no sentido de explorar o que de fato os conselhos fazem: tomar decisões (saídas), a partir da análise das resoluções emitidas pelo conselho. Assim, verificou-se no ConCidades por meio do mapeamento realizado a produção de 179 resoluções aprovadas em Plenário e publicadas em Diário Oficial no período analisado. Mediante aplicação da Tipologia de Padrões Decisórios identificou-se que no ConCidades há predominância do tipo de decisões de Definição Geral da Política - DEF (53,63% das decisões produzidas), este considerado o padrão decisório presente em todos os períodos do conselho que há a produção de decisões aprovadas e publicadas. Além disso, pode ser confirmada que há variação na produção decisória do ConCidades em relação à quantidade de decisões produzidas ao longo dos anos, e que os fatores explicativos endógenos e exógenos ajudam a explorar a variação dessa produção. Contudo, em relação à variação do padrão decisório não se confirma no caso do ConCidades, porque verificou-se que o padrão decisório do conselho (DEF) é constante ao longo dos anos, e que mesmo havendo a presença de outros tipos de decisões estes se mostraram de forma secundária se comparado às decisões do tipo DEF, além de oscilarem durante o período analisado.

Show Summary

Based on the theory of agri-food regimes, we investigated the materialization process of food in the current corporate agri-food regime, coordinated by the spirit of financialization. In this sense, in the first part of the research, we developed a review of the state-of-the-art literature on agri-food regimes, as well as highlighting, mainly, two phenomena: flex crops and ultraprocessed foods. We understand that through the articulation between these phenomena it becomes possible to map structural elements of the materialization process of food in the 21st century. In the second stage of the research, we propose a case study on the Agro-industrial Complex of Açaí (Euterpe Oleracea Mart.), based on a case study method. The construct starts from the characteristics that an agricultural crop must contain in order to become a financialized commodity. Among several natural, historical and cultural elements that the culture of Açaí is immersed in, we highlight a main contradiction: why Açaí is consumed as a minimally processed food with high nutritional values in the Northern region of Brazil and, in other regions of Brazil and of the world, is it consumed as an ultra-processed food (Mix of Açaí)? To justify the elements of a financialized agricultural commodity, the following structures were analyzed: the agro-industrial complexes, the future market, flex crops, land markets and land grabbing, ultra-processed foods, and public policies. Therefore, we point out that there is a direct interaction between the corporate agri-food regime, the financialization and flexibilization of agricultural crops, the production of ultra-processed foods and the expansion of Chronic Non-Communicable Diseases (NCDs), such relations are incentive or constrained by public policies. This research is positioned in the field of Food Sovereignty and Security.

Show Summary

The academic management of Federal Institutions of Higher Education is characterized by the professor acting as manager, in which he becomes responsible for the academic and managerial activities of a course, and often the professor-manager takes over the academic management without having developed the necessary competencies for the position. The main objective of this research is to understand the competences developed by professors as Course Coordinators of the Graduation Course at Campus I of the Federal University of Paraíba (UFPB). For this, it was a qualitative research of descriptive approach, in which a bibliographical, documental and field research was carried out. A semi-structured interview script was used with twenty course coordinators and the procedures adopted to treat and interpret the research data were carried out by means of content analysis. The competences elucidated by the undergraduate course coordinators were divided into six categories: Academic Competencies (Pedagogical); Management Competencies (Administrative); Institutional Competencies; Political Competencies; Technical/Technological Competencies; Socio-emotional Competencies. The findings indicate that the process of developing the competencies of course coordinators occurs through daily practice; by the influence of personal characteristics of those interviewed; through observation and exchange of experiences with colleagues who have been course coordinators and with the technicaladministrative staff who work in the secretariats of the coordinators; by reading the legislation of the UFPB; by the realization of courses offered by the university that help them in the use of electronic systems, among other processes. The results also demonstrate that academic management is complex and involves facing many challenges, in which the course coordinator seeks to develop competencies that enable it possible to fulfill his functions and managerial activities, since there are many duties of the professor-manager.

No contexto das universidades públicas federais, os cargos de natureza administrativa, a exemplo da coordenação de cursos, costumam ser ocupados por professores da própria instituição, revelando o papel do professor-gestor no ensino superior. Todavia, as atividades gerenciais não demandam do professor as mesmas competências referentes ao exercício de pesquisa, de extensão e de ensino, o que requer a mobilização de diferentes competências frente as atividades desempenhadas. Pelo exposto, este estudo teve como objetivo geral compreender o desenvolvimento de competências gerenciais do professor-gestor no contexto da pós-graduação na Universidade Federal da Paraíba (UFPB), norteando-se na perspectiva de que esses profissionais exercem atividades com elevada responsabilidade. Assim, o caminho percorrido envolve etapas de pesquisa de natureza qualitativa e caráter exploratório, mediante a utilização do método da história oral e aplicação de entrevistas narrativas com quinze coordenadores de cursos da pós-graduação stricto sensu do Campus I da UFPB. O tratamento dos dados e a análise se deram a partir da análise narrativa, possibilitando a identificação de dimensões e categorias, algumas já preestabelecidas, outras emergidas dos dados, com isso, foi possível apontar elementos que impulsionam o desenvolvimento de competências gerenciais no professor-gestor da pós-graduação. Os resultados revelaram que os professoresgestores, em sua maioria, assumiram a gestão sem interesse, não tiveram um preparo prévio e sentem limitações no desenvolvimento das atividades gerenciais em decorrência de não terem formação na área de gestão, como consequência, a aprendizagem ocorre no cotidiano das atividades. Os achados mostraram que os professores-gestores mobilizam competências cognitivas, funcionais, comportamentais e políticas, sendo a repercussão maior em torno das capacidades políticas. De modo geral, os coordenadores alegaram um acúmulo de atribuições que transcende a carga horária destinada ao trabalho, alegaram um ambiente de pressão, devido as exigências das instâncias superiores, em destaque a CAPES, frente as avaliações que determinam a manutenção do programa nesse sistema, evidenciaram, também, dificuldades relacionais, principalmente com docentes, diante dos egos e de conflitos existentes no ambiente e demonstraram, ainda, insatisfação frente aos desafios provenientes de limitações de recursos financeiros e bolsas, bem como a carência de infraestrutura. Desse modo, o panorama apresentado permitiu esboçar a necessidade de intervenções por parte da UFPB em relação a investimentos que possam preparar melhor os docentes, tanto no que se refere a atividade gerencial, como para enfrentamento de diferentes questões que revelaram um ambiente instável em que o professor-gestor atua.

This work was linked to the PGPCI Public Policies line. This dissertation consisted of analyzing how the social enterprise of Che Guevara settlement correlated incidences of sociotechnical management, socio-political responsibility and income production in the period from 2008 to 2018. The settlement was created in November 2007 and the association was founded in January 2008, reason for choosing the referred time frame. The three approaches mentioned above are suggested as components of trichotomy of social enterprises and make it possible to oxygenate the associative and economic vitality of those entities. Social enterprises are distinguished in formal and informal ways. The formal ones such as associations, cooperatives, rural warehouses, among others; and the informal ones are the productive groups of women, youth groups, groups of handicrafts. This distinction avoids being restricted to bureaucratic-juridical-legal aspects and, at the same time, expands the scope of the definition of social enterprises, to varied initiatives of people structured in groups, collectives and semi-collectives. Admitting as socioeconomic organizations based on the singularities existing in each location, whether in the camp, settlement or even in urban spaces. This work was guided by six concomitant and sequential steps: definition of the object of study, establishment of the general and specific objectives, methodology definition, structuring the justification arguments, delineation of the key concepts of readings and notes in the final considerations. The theoretical-methodological scope established was characterized by the following aspects: interpellation as a qualitative research, of an applied nature, with exploratory purposes and interspersed for a retrospective period. The tools used for data collection were based on bibliographic research, audio recording via whatsapp6, participant observation document analysis and secondary sources consultation. There is a range of academic-scientific investigations in the literature on the subject addressed. This work is added to an empirical perspective, regarding the activities performed by the Association and the Che Guevara Settlement, which is contemporary with the proposal of the management model aimed at MST (Landless Workers' Movement) social companies. As a result, it was presented on socio-technical management that the work of the partners was concentrated in four aspects: plot of land around the residence, plot of productive unit, seed bank and in the social enterprise Socio-political responsibility pervades two arenas: CMDRS and Regional and State Seeds Commission and the income came from three axes: collective gardening, animal management and the production of fruit cakes and pulps. Without illative presumption, the triad was considered: socio-technical management, socio-political responsibility and income production, corresponding to a relevant analytical matrix to measure the associative and economic vitality in social enterprises.

Esta pesquisa tem por escopo analisar o discurso da sustentabilidade manifestado por uma instituição pública dedicada ao ensino superior localizada na região nordeste do Brasil, a Universidade Federal da Paraíba (UFPB), durante o intervalo de tempo entre os anos de 2009 e 2020. Enquadrando-se como pesquisa qualitativa exploratória e estudo de caso, faz uso da Análise
Sociológica do Discurso (ASD) como metodologia para observação dos dados colhidos: buscase
com ela expor contextos, ideologias e silêncios que se camuflam em meio ao discurso organizacional mas contribuem para moldá-lo. Utiliza como fonte de dados a documentação produzida pela instituição durante o período delimitado, em particular seus Planos de Desenvolvimento Institucional e Relatórios de Gestão, assim como o conteúdo midiático produzido e veiculado
por seu canal de televisão e sua revista. A pesquisa se vale também de conversas mantidas
com servidores ligados à gestão organizacional e de observações registradas por meio de
fotografias. Aos dados coletados foram feitas perguntas do tipo: Quem fala? De que posição
fala? Do que se fala? O que está em jogo? Como se organiza a fala? Tais questionamentos
levaram à descoberta de posições discursivas, configurações narrativas e espaços semânticos
que revelaram o discurso de uma instituição voltada à sua função social e que se vale do ensino,
pesquisa e atividades de extensão para ser ativa no contato com a sociedade, mas que coloca
seus desafios internos em segundo plano. Depreende-se que, apesar de compreender a importância da sustentabilidade, ações internas no sentido de transformar a UFPB em um laboratório vivo para pesquisa e experimentação neste sentido são desaceleradas em virtude de deficiências na comunicação interna, da falta de organismos com autonomia para gerir o assunto e da priorização de ações voltadas ao combate a problemas socioeconômicos históricos. Ao final do
estudo, são feitas sugestões para a aceleração do processo de conversão da UFPB em uma universidade sustentável, bem como recomendações para futuros pesquisadores que pretendam se valer da ASD em estudos organizacionais.

Study of environmental sustainability at the Public Ministry of Paraíba under the view of the environmental agenda for Public Administration - A3P

Show Summary

Sustainability and environmental responsibility are ubiquitous terms in the debates of modern
society. The concern about changes in behavior on the part of citizens and institutions, given
the scarcity of natural resources, highlights the concern of public organizations with the future
of the planet, in the performance of their social role. This research evaluated the main
environmental problems within the scope of the Public Ministry of Paraíba (MPPB) taking as
a parameter the six thematic axes of the Environmental Agenda of Public Administration
(A3P). A3P is a Program of the Ministry of the Environment (MMA), of voluntary adhesion,
which aims to implement socio-environmental responsibility in the administrative and
operational activities of the public administration. It is characterized as an exploratorydescriptive research, with a qualitative approach, covering the administrative headquarters
and other annexes of MPPB, located in João Pessoa / PB. The methodology comprises
bibliographic research, document collection, applied interviews and field research. The
speeches obtained with the application of the interviews were categorized in the light of the
content analysis of Bardin (2007). It was found that MPPB does not institute its
Environmental Policy, nor does it have a Sustainable Management Plan (PGS). The results
demonstrate that the MPPB has started its path towards sustainability through isolated
socioenvironmental practices, with low adherence to the A3P axes. The main obstacles
presented were: the reality of each sector, which implies the punctual adoption of sustainable
practices at the manager's discretion, the absence of a socio-environmental management
program or even of a commission or body responsible for this articulation; the lack of
knowledge of sustainable practices already implemented in the institution; lack of training and
awareness of its members regarding the environmental issue, in addition to the scarcity of
financial resources. However, there are high expectations regarding the implementation of a
PGS in the MPPB, mainly within the policies implemented by the institution's Strategic
Planning, which has been replicating projects carried out in the A3P standard. In view of these
findings and the concerns pointed out by the interviewees, we suggest: prioritizing the
definition of an institutional Environmental Policy, constituting a Management Committee,
for the purpose of developing and implementing a PGS that meets the environmental
management program instituted for A3P adherence and the conducting an organizational
diagnosis, collecting data on the socio-environmental situation MPPB, to establish, according
to the institution's need, sustainability practices and rationalization of expenditures and
processes in the Public Ministry of Paraíba.
