It is a dissertation that deals with the issue of Constitutional Change in order to analyze the integration of Law and Economics and; the divergence which has emerged from this kind of integration explained by the different times of evolution between Law and Economics. Bringing a review about the Constitutional changes since the appearance of the problems involving disparity between social reality and the Law, established by Ferdinand Lassalle, until the integrative theories of the Constitution, those bring into themselves the social divergence accepting by that a constant mutability, so they are, necessarily, political stuff. Finally, it proposes the existence of an active Constitutional Change, different of the others classic cases of Constitutional changes, manipulated according to the wishes of the Economic Power.

The objective of this research was to verify the disclosure level of the financial instruments (IRFS 7/CPC 40) of Brazilian public companies during the period of 2014. For that, qualitative and quantitative methods were used, descriptive as to its objectives, and documental - content analysis. The population is composed by the 172 largest non financial companies registered at CVM, which resulted in a sample of 70 companies. The data was obtained at the CVM website and in the Economatica’s data base. A disclosure index based on regulatory CPC 40’s requiriments was used to determine the disclosure levels. To analyse the influence of each characteristic in the level of disclosure, the sample was divided in two groups, the average of disclosure for each group and its pattern deviation were calculated, and tests of averages were applied to verify the certainty of the results. The main results suggest that characteristics relating to the size and ADR influence the level of disclosure of the companies. The characteristics related to regulated industries, indebtedness, performance and profitability are not relevant to the level of disclosure. Considering the obligatority of the standard, it would be expected the full disclosure - disclosure levels of 100% - but in reality it does not occur once the overall average of disclosure is 70.45%. This fact may infer lack of investment in staff competence and operational of most companies - only 3 of the analised companies reached the level of disclosure of 100% - and, on the other hand, complacency of the audit firms to accept this situation without clarifying the explanatory notes.

This project presents the steps developed by Metalquip to analyze, plan, develop and application an innovative solution for preventive / predictive maintenance of agricultural machinery and equipment, as well as the process of creating a corporate spin-off to take advantage of the identified opportunity. The work follows the technological report protocol proposed by Marcondes, Miguel, Franklin and Perez (2017), starting from the generation of the idea, pre-validation of the solution with clients, followed by procedures for internal approval with the board, approval of the budget for the pilot project development, patenting of the solution: as a utility model - BR 10 2018 010513 2, creation of the spin-off company and an action plan (in execution) for project implementation. The project's contributions include the development and application of an innovative technological solution for the Brazilian market, providing productivity gains for sugar and alcohol plants, with potential for expansion in other sectors of industry such as mining, construction, oil and gas and aviation. The solution encompasses not only results in terms of technology and business development, but also brings environmental benefits, by reducing oil leaks in the field. It is also understood that the project portrays a peculiar but potentially replicable reality for other industries of industrial components, adding important learning that can serve as a reference for entrepreneurs and academics.

Cellular automata are discrete dynamic systems that by local action rules, even very simple, can present arbitrarily complex global processing. The reversibility is a property that a few rules have and guarantees the existence of an inverse rule capable of reversing the temporal evolution of the original rule. For a rule be reversible all possible configurations of lattices must have only one predecessor, i.e., only one pre-image. In this context, it had been proposed in the literature the concept of rules may be characterized by its relative partial reversibility, that is, rules can be more or less reversible than others. This notion is represented by the rule pre-image pattern, which is composed of the quantities ordered pre-images of all the possible configurations of lattices up to a maximum size. To sort the rules of the reversible for less reversible, or group them if they had the same reversibility was made lexicographical ordering patterns of pre-images. This paper reviewed the original definition, based on elementary cellular automata, although the results are applicable to any other one-dimensional family rules. Thus, proposed it was a measure of the reversibility level of a rule, also based on its default pre-image, but now from the probability of correctly reverse each possible configurations of lattices up to a given maximum size. This measure allows us to analyze the degree of reversibility of a rule in absolute terms and not relative to other rules. Thus, it becomes possible to individually analyze the reversibility levels of rules, making it possible to infer the degree of rules reversible for lattices arbitrarily larger than calculated, in particular, identifying rules that tend to be reversible when the size of the lattices tends to infinity. It was also possible to define an operation that, from their own state transitions rule, allows to obtain partially rules that have the same level of reversibility without the need of standard calculating preview image, which is extremely expensive computationally.

O presente trabalho desenvolve uma reflexão crítica acerca da relação entre o sistema capitalista e as violações de Direitos Humanos das mulheres, culminando em sua mercantilização máxima que se materializa no tráfico internacional de mulheres A partir de uma análise da sistematização interna do processo produtivo capitalista na opressão de gênero, procurou-se determinar as opressões e desigualdades que contribuem como instrumento de perpetuação desse sistema. Foi realizada análise da mercantilização do corpo e da vida das mulheres por três ângulos diferentes, estes sendo as publicidades, a prostituição e o tráfico de pessoas. Por meio do estudo do desenvolvimento do tráfico de pessoas e de sua legislação internacional, assim como da evolução do ordenamento jurídico brasileiro acerca do tema procurou-se identificar as causas e formas de enfrentamento ao tráfico de seres humanos. A partir da análise da jurisprudência com matérias reiteradas no Judiciário, mostra-se a concretização dos dados e perfis estabelecidos acerca do tráfico de pessoas, assim como as limitações do enfrentamento ao tráfico até aquele momento. Por fim, é feita uma análise da recente Lei 13.344 de outubro de 2016, que altera consideravelmente a legislação nacional até então existente acerca do tema.

Este relatório descreve o processo de realização de um documentário que investiga o que significa ser ator no Brasil, país com elevado grau de desvalorização da arte e da cultura. Tem como objetivo entender como este contexto se traduz no dia a dia do artista, ainda mais potencializado por uma sociedade pautada em altas demandas e expectativas. Através da produção de um documentário participativo e poético, acompanha o processo artístico de quatro atores e sua diretora/atriz em busca da compreensão de suas motivações na profissão. Com a utilização de quatro fontes, de origens e personalidades diferentes, expõe de forma subjetiva as distintas visões e reações de cada personagem, proporcionando como resultado um panorama amplo das dificuldades e também atrativos da profissão. Alguns autores essenciais para o embasamento deste projeto foram: Byung-Chul Han e Catherine Love para desenvolvimento do tema; Patricio Guzmán e Bill Nichols para desenvolvimento da peça. Os documentários Elena (2012) e Moscou (2009) também foram de crucial importância. A profissão do ator é cercada de dualidades. Ao mesmo tempo que acolhe, também é ambiente catalisador de frustrações e ansiedade. Está diretamente relacionada com o ego do indivíduo e com o sentimento de inconformismo e deslocamento, fazendo-o buscar refúgio no caótico mundo artístico. O resultado deste projeto é um documentário criativo e inovador, que permite percebermos o pulsar das ansiedades das personagens e suas expectativas quanto aos enfrentamentos de sua profissão.

The primary function of the on-screen study is to evaluate the performance of political power understood as the cause of the existence of a state and consequently responsible for the main positive and negative effects that the components of this state may suffer. The scenario of institutional crisis in Brazilian society may turn out to be a result of resistance to the inherent and necessary changes in the cultural scene of national politics while it suffers the most diverse side effects of a power struggle and utopian autonomy of those who represent us. Aware of the perplexed system introduced, the content of the political reform currently discussed can be seen as an advance in the sense of restraining - or at least attempting - nebulous articulations that are of no benefit to the well-being of the Brazilian citizen, while, on the other hand, absolute frankness, its real intentions, and may be an instrument of maneuver, which will enable a greater concentration of political power, rooted in economic power, expressly disregarding the democratic regime already so mitigated in our present society. Believing that the political scenario has undergone considerable changes and that the immediate effects will be drastically felt by the society that submits to it is concluded by the study on screen that will be directed in the intention to evaluate the content approved for electoral reform considering all time the evaluation of some basic and indispensable concepts that revolve around the theme addressed, stating when possible the possible positive and negative effects generated by the imposition of a new systematic policy, always seeking the preservation of social welfare and maintenance of effective representativeness of the minority, protecting the democratic State of law.

The objective of this research is to shed a light over how the Cultural Environment composed by several occupation scenarios of cultural landscapes of the Brazilian Amazon river channels was formed. The environment, which is formed by a group of physical and cultural manifestations, reflects the result of intangible assets, such as traditional knowledge and practices of the communities that live or have once lived there, leaving behind edifications, objects, utensils, archeological sites, etc. The culture of native dwellers, as many other societies in the national territory, results from a long-term process of Amazon occupation by a diversitiy of cultural identities. However, recent transformations affecting the Brazilian Amazon, due to a globalized and more competitive economy, consider the implantation of major projects that entail social and political contradictions emerging from the relationship between State and society. Facing this scenario, it is imperative that this landscape be analysed in an integrated manner, taking into account the social diversity and not just the existing traditional societies, as well as the organized civil society, the landowners communitary leaderships, local state governments, companies and their different onlooks regarding the subject, thus enabling and promoting the Territory Management. As for the premisses mentioned above, we face a methodological challenge, especially regarding the application of concepts of Territory Management and Resilience to the traditional communities envolved, aiming at obtaining results that will leverage sustentainable actions, not only from the social and cultural point of view, but also from the economical and political standpoint. In the light of this challenge we will highlight research carried out by Brazilian research programs in the cultural environment of some communities living along the Brazilian Amazon rivers. Mapping of their built, historical and cultural heritage, the sum of testimonies and involvement of local communities, including their way of life and traditional knowledge, technical and specialized analyses that will eventually lead to the interpretation of the cultural landscape the Applied Science.

The Plastisol is a fluid bulk based on PVC, mineral fillers, plasticizers, stabilizers and depending of its final application, a pigment and resins for adhesion providing. It can be produced by using two different types of mixers: The sigma and the cowles. This work studied what was the best mixer for producing the Plastisol and also evaluated the adhesion, viscosity and thixotropic properties gotten using these two producing processes. For a better understanding of adhesion, viscosity and thixotropic phenomenon, it was produced in the laboratory four different samples, each one with different producing process. It was prepared specimens of Plastisol for each producing process used, where the tensile strength was measured in a dynamometer for taking the force intensity and a rheometer for viscosity and thixotropic studies. This way was possible to evaluate what was the best producing process adopted.
