After a long era of military rule, the South American nations have been working on the construction of a new democratic order. This book provides a long-term historical assessment of the main features of civil-military relations in this region, from independence in the early nineteenth century to the current process of democratic consolidation, with special attention to the cases of Argentina, Brazil, Chile, and Peru.

From a Foucaultean view of power, this work analyzes the violence, corruption and disciplinary power inscribed in the trilogy of the tremendousness of Felipe Cazals. To do this, I have structured the article in four sections plus a final conclusion. In the first, I develope a brief historical approach to the new Mexican cinema of the sixties and seventies. In the second section I analyze the film Canoa, paying attention to the political implications of conservative Catholicism and the dominance it exercises over the inhabitants of the town. In the third section, I examine the film El apanado and reflect on the sociocultural implications of confinement and punishment, and how they are put at the service of a disciplinary power that is exercised from the opacity of prison institutionality. In the fourth section, the film Las poquianchis is studied focusing on violence and institutionalized corruption, that makes prostitution and the female body, a submitted territory and subjected to physical and psychological violence. Finally, the conclusions provide a general reflection, encompassing the political and sociocultural aspects that are transverse to the three ribbons. ; Desde una mirada foucaulteana del poder, este trabajo analiza la violencia, la corrupción y el poder disciplinario inscrito en la trilogía del tremendismo de Felipe Cazals. Para ello, he estructurado el artículo en cuatro apartados más una conclusión final. En la primera se desarrolla una breve aproximación histórica al nuevo cine mexicano de los años sesenta y setenta. En el segundo apartado analizo la película Canoa, poniendo atención a las implicancias políticas del catolicismo conservador y el dominio que ejerce sobre los habitantes del pueblo. En el tercer apartado examino la cinta El apanado y reflexiono acerca de las implicancias socioculturales del encierro y el castigo, y cómo éstos se ponen al servicio de un poder disciplinario que se ejerce desde la opacidad de la institucionalidad carcelaria. En el cuarto apartado se estudia la película ...

The need for the world to follow a more carbon-neutral path is clear, with growing evidence highlighting the existential threat posed by unregulated GHG emissions. Responsibility for achieving this does not only lie with policy makers but is shared with all stakeholders including governments, private sectors, charities and civil society as a whole. Several methodological approaches have been developed to set emission reduction targets, including the Science-Based Targets Initiative (SBTi). However, it is yet to be widely adopted, and as thought leaders in the field, universities must take a lead in its interpretation and application. This study is reported from the perspective of a UK university, which is adopting climate change considerations to facilitate achieving Czero by 2030 and will act as an exemplar case. We calculate baseline emissions, science-based reduction targets for different carbon emission reduction methods and options in terms of financing emission reduction pathways at present and in the future. The study outcomes show that incorporating a SBTi methodology can serve as insight into other medium-sized organisations and universities wishing to develop a net-zero pathway. These results have been summarised into a series of recommendations.

<p>Ligas monotéticas apresentam aplicações promissoras em componentes automotivos resistentes ao desgaste. Muitos estudos têm sido realizados a fim de melhor compreender a reação monotética. Algumas pesquisas assumem que a evolução do espaçamento interfásico nas ligas monotéticas obedece à clássica relação utilizada para eutéticos, ou ainda a relação de crescimento dendrítico. No presente trabalho foram analisados os resultados desses experimentos de solidificação unidirecional em regime não estacionário, com as ligas hipomonotéticas Al-0,9%Pb e Al-5,5%In, com a liga monotética Al-1,2%Pb e com as ligas hipermonotéticas Al-5,0%Bi, Al-7,0%Bi e Al-2,1%Pb em configurações de extração de calor ascendente e descendente, a fim de propor nova lei de crescimento unicamente para sistemas monotéticos. Pôde-se estabelecer uma lei para crescimento de monotéticos em função da posição a partir da interface metal/molde.</p>

The National Museum of the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro (NM-UFRJ), Brazil, suffered a serious fire in 2018, resulting in the loss or severe damage of many collections. The human osteological collection, also affected, was one of the largest and oldest in the country, holding over two thousand entries from prehistoric to historic sites, including some international donations. The oldest remains were those of "Luzia", dating to 11.5 thousand years. While part of the collection was recovered from the debris, the bones were mostly warped and damaged by the fire, making the possibility of identification uncertain. Therefore, this collection is now inadequate for regular forensic and bioarchaeological studies. Considering the need for the construction of a new human osteological collection, especially with forensic perspectives, we conducted a survey of Brazilian national and local (capitals of the Southeast region) legislation, regarding donation and institutionalization of human remains for scientific collections and ossuaries, considering the potential ethics and logistics aspects. Results suggest that legislation generally treats human remains studies and collections as an issue of lesser importance Thus, private donations may become the simplest way to receive human remains, even though they are generally age biased. We conclude that it is necessary to broaden legal and ethical discussions in order to build contemporary human bone collections with proper scientific potential for the needs of society.

ABSTRACT Purpose: Analyze if the commonality in liquidity is priced and its relation with the stock return in the Brazilian stock market. Originality/value: Due to the shortage of papers about the effects of commonality in liquidity in the Brazilian financial literature, this paper provides knowledge development about commonality in liquidity effect for the investor, investigating whether an investment strategy in the most sensitive assets to systematic variations of liquidity is attractive for investors, consistent with the risk-return trade off. Design/methodology/approach: In order to identify the effect of commonality to investors, we opted to use portfolios. Using companies listed on B3 as a sample, we estimated regressions developed in the time series from January 2007 to December 2015. Findings: We found that the commonality is a phenomenon present in the Brazilian stock market and their highest values were concentrated in periods of international financial crises. In addition, using portfolios, we observed a premium of 4.165% per month for the commonality in liquidity, although not statistically significant. Finally, we found that the commonality in liquidity is a priced risk factor and when we exposed it to other risk factors we found that the liquidity risk factor was able to partly capture it.

Este artigo identifica os motivos que levaram a Sociedade Algodoeira do Nordeste Brasileiro, S. A. (Sanbra), subsidiária da Bunge Brasil, a se tornar um grupo econômico. Será analisada sua história de mais de 70 anos, de 1923 até 1994, quando a firma foi incorporada na reestruturação da Bunge. O artigo baseia-se em fontes primárias consultadas no Centro de Memória Bunge, em São Paulo, sobretudo os Relatórios de Diretoria e Balanços Anuais e a revista Atualidades Sanbra. Teoricamente seguirá os autores que tratam da formação de business groups em economias periféricas. Como conclusão prévia pode-se afirmar que alguns fatores contribuíram para a transformação da Sanbra em grupo econômico, principalmente o reinvestimento do capital próprio, o lançamento de novos produtos, a atuação em diversos setores, relacionamento com fontes creditícias do Estado, assim como a ocupação do território nacional.
