Análise dos índices dos efeitos multiplicadores e das ligações para trás e para frente da renda, do produto e do emprego: uma abordagem a partir da matriz de contabilidade social do Brasil
(Universidade Salvador, 2018-08) CARVALHO, André Cutrim; CARVALHO, David Ferreira
The main objective of this paper is to analyze the multiplier effects of income, output and employment, as well as the inter-sectorial backward and forward linkages of income, output and employment of the key industries of the Brazilian economy in the years 2000, 2005 and 2010, based on Social Accouting Matrix (SAM) of Brazil. The research sought to analyze the interactive impacts caused by the transformation industry in its own internal sectors and sectors of other industries that form the Brazilian industrial system. The chain indices of dispersion power and dispersion sensitivity of the manufacturing industry over all sectors of the industrial system of the Brazilian economy based on SAM were also analyze. The article found that income that exceeds the portion of the purchase of inputs was spending by households, using the channels that result in extra demand on the products of the agricultural sector, through the liquid circular effect of Stone. Therefore, it strengthened demand links, which, in turn, catalyzed the process that led to the spread of national GDP growth. The role of the manufacturing industry is thus perceive as a key industry for the country's economy, especially as the back bond index and the forward index are high and their coefficients of variation low.

A ausência eloquente: ciência política brasileira, povos indígenas e o debate acadêmico canadense contemporâneo
(Universidade de Brasília, 2020-12) SOARES, Leonardo Barros
An empirical analysis of the Catálogo de Teses e Dissertações of the CAPES and of seven important Brazilian political science journals over the last twenty years shows a significative lack of interest in researching Indigenous issues. This paper uses bibliometric analysis and carries out an extensive literature review of 2,621 papers and 47 Master’s theses and doctoral dissertations to prove this claim and to present to Brazilian readers political science research on Indigenous peoples in Canada, highlighting topics of interest. We then present some critical views of Indigenous policy and studies on this topic in that country. We conclude by calling for the Brazilian political science community, both scholars and students, to establish a research agenda on this important segment of the country’s population.

Entre as terras do Rio Branco e a Guiana Inglesa: relatos de viajantes sobre povos indígenas (1835-1899)
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2023-05-12) LAPOLA, Daniel Montenegro; SANJAD, Nelson Rodrigues; http://lattes.cnpq.br/9110037947248805; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-6372-1185
The thesis is based on Peter Burke's historiographical approach on the cultural history of representations and on indigenous history to analyze travelers’ reports about the indigenous people in the region between the extreme north of Brazil and British Guiana in the 19th century. We worked on the reports of the Prussian explorer Robert Hermann Schomburgk (1804-1865), the Canadian geologist Charles Barrington Brown (1839-1917), both at the service of the Royal Geographical Society of the British crown; next, we analyze the French traveler Henri Anatole Coudreau (1859-1899), on a mission for the Ministry of the Navy and the French Colonies and the government of the state of Pará. As a central objective, I analyze the relationship between travelers and indigenous peoples, the alliances and strategies used through scientific research to serve the demarcation and land occupation interests of the country sponsoring the enterprise on the border of Brazil and British Guiana between 1835 and 1899.

Frontiers and economic institutions in Brazil: an approach focused on the new institutional economics
(Associação Nacional de Pós-Graduação e Pesquisa em Planejamento Urbano e Regional, 2017-04) CARVALHO, André Cutrim
The present article seeks to discuss the meaning (s) of frontiers in Brazil and the role of institutions in the process of economic development through the new institutional economics. Any pattern of collective behavior characterizes an institution, and as such determines the “rules of the game”. The frontier represents a socio-economic relationship of production because the structure of society in building a frontier is dominated (in)directly by capital. In Brazil, the movement to occupy land on the frontier does not usually occur through contingent smallholders, but rather through a mixture of different social segments, such as: migrants, “landless” males, farmers and entrepreneurs, all seeking land to occupy, to produce and to speculate. The main conclusion is that a developed institutional system may help to promote economic development by structuring the surrounding environment and stimulating the process of cooperation, innovation and learning in the frontier regions of Brazil.

Governamentalidade liberal em alguns saberes educacionais e escolares brasileiros
(Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul, 2017) LEMOS, Flávia Cristina Silveira; BRÍCIO, Vilma Nonato de; GALINDO, Dolores Cristina Gomes; FRANCO, Ana Carolina Farias
This paper presents some thoughts on governance practices in the Brazilian liberal education and the organization of the school system from the perspective of governmentality in Foucault, during the twentieth century. Thus, the theoretical framework used to undertake the analysis includes some authors / the educational area, as well as attempts to link them to the discussion with some concepts developed by Foucault on liberalism, governmentality, power knowledge, subjectivity and education. Education, in this perspective becomes one governamentality apparatus that builds speeches and visibilities that subjectify subjects in different ways. In Brazil, the liberal education combined with the desire to modernize bodies and another company, engendering forms of government to operate on the social spheres, cultural, political, ethical and economically in the lives and bodies.

Hydroelectric projects and territorial governance in regions of The State of Pará, Brazilian Amazon
(Entrepreneurship and Sustainability Center, 2018-06) ROCHA, Gilberto de Miranda; NEVES, Marjorie Barros
The public and private institutional dynamics in the process of developing territories impacted by large hydroelectric projects have faced challenges over time in different aspects. The challenge is not only how to build participatory governance at different levels, but how to promote democratic and responsible vertical conceptions among actors at each level, considering the sharing of irreversible socioeconomic impacts caused by this enterprises in the Amazon. The construction of new relations between ordinary people and institutions - government, companies, society - forces the constant search for the establishment of strategies to establish social relations for the construction of models of territorial governance still in initial experiences in the state of Pará. To identify impacts, conflicts and territorial governance in areas of major projects: what has literature shown of experiences in the Amazon?

La importancia de la educación y del capital humano como dinamizador del desarrollo en Brasil
(Servicios Académicos Intercontinentales S.L., 2018-04) CARVALHO, André Cutrim
The main objective of this article is to bring to the dance the debate on education and development in Brazil, especially in the current context of economic, social and, mainly, institutional crisis. Education, generally and broadly, is and always was considered an important factor in the socioeconomic development of a country and, in a certain way, an indicator linked to the quality of life. In this context, the relationships that involve education and development, evidently refer to multiple and complex social, economic and cultural dimensions. As the objective is to characterize the role of each one in the process of economic development of the region, this research can be defined as exploratory. In addition, the article in question will seek as many information as possible to understand this important, but difficult connection movement involving education and development in Brazil using the qualitative research technique. As a most important conclusive aspect, it is necessary to emphasize that the development of Brazil was deeply compromised in the course of its formation due to the absence of educational establishments. In addition, the inefficient education system contributed to the low intellectual level of the population, a fact that interfered directly with the country's economy. Then, to deprive the Brazilian population today of a more elaborate education is to opt for the subordination of the country internationally. In addition, nothing can be more devastating and disastrous for a country than an uncultivated and uncivilized population, taking into account that the true national development, be it in the cultural, scientific and technological areas, goes through a political choice that prioritizes the intellectual elevation of its town. If these principles are not contemplated, our public schools will continue to embitter with their low qualitative indexes and a process of economic development increasingly distant and unenforceable.

Panorama e importância econômica do café no mercado internacional de commodities agrícolas: uma análise espectral
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2017) CARVALHO, André Cutrim; CARVALHO, David Ferreira; FILGUEIRAS, Gisalda Carvalho; ARAÚJO, Ana Cláudia de Sousa; CARVALHO, Abner Vilhena de
This paper aims to discuss the panorama and importance of coffee for Brazil, especially in economic terms, by making use of the empirical and analytical instruments of the spectral analysis, based on the time series of coffee prices in the international agricultural commodities market. New York (USA). In fact, coffee is an important component of total exports from several countries, including Brazil. Over time, coffee has become an economically important product of many families around the world. From the methodological point of view,the research used the statistical-econometric framework derived from the spectral analysis of time series. The results of this analysis show that climate shocks on coffee prices may have longer effects and those agricultural policies that directly affect the coffee production chain may have longer lasting effects. Moreover, the results indicate that the coffee price trend is in a combination of deterministic and stochastic trends.

Seasonal variation in the copepod community structure from a tropical Amazon estuary, Northern Brazil
(Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2009-06) MAGALHÃES, André Luiz Perez; LEITE, Natália da Rocha; SILVA, João Gabriel Souza; PEREIRA, Luci Cajueiro Carneiro; COSTA, Rauquírio André Albuquerque Marinho da
The main purpose of this study was to investigate the seasonal variation of copepod community structure during the months of July, September and November 2003 (dry season) and January, March and May 2004 (rainy season) in the Curuçá estuary, northern Brazil. Samples were collected during neap tides via gentle 200µm mesh net tows from a small powerboat. Measurements of surface water conductivity were accomplished in situ using an electronic conductivimeter and salinity was later obtained through the transformation of the conductivity values. Salinity varied seasonally from 7.2 ± 0.1 to 39.2 ± 1.8 (mean ± standard deviation) and was influenced mainly by differences in the amount of rainfall between the studied sampling seasons. In total, 30 Copepoda taxa were identified and Acartia tonsa comprised the most representative species throughout the entire studied period followed by Acartia lilljeborgii, Subeucalanus pileatus and Paracalanus quasimodo. In the present study, the density values, ecological indexes and copepod species dominance presented a clear seasonal pattern, showing that the studied area may be considered seasonally heterogeneous in relation to the investigated parameters.

Spatial and temporal distribution in density and biomass of two Pseudodiaptomus species (Copepoda: Calanoida) in the Caeté river estuary (Amazon region - North of Brazil)
(Instituto Internacional de Ecologia, 2006-05) MAGALHÃES, André Luiz Perez; COSTA, Rauquírio André Albuquerque Marinho da; PEREIRA, Luci Cajueiro Carneiro; RIBEIRO, Marcilenia de Jesus da Silva; LIANG, Tsui Hua
Spatial and temporal density and biomass distribution of the planktonic copepods Pseudodiaptomus richardi and P. acutus along a salinity gradient were investigated in the Caeté River Estuary (North-Brazil) in June and December, 1998 (dry season) and in February and May, 1999 (rainy season). Copepod biomass was estimated using regression parameters based on the relation of dry weight and body length (prosome) of adult organisms. The Caeté River Estuary was characterized by high spatial and temporal variations in salinity (0.8-37.2). Exponential length-weight relationships were observed for both Pseudodiaptomus species. Density and biomass values oscillated between 0.28-46.18 ind. m-3 and 0.0022-0.3507 mg DW. m-3 for P. richardi; and between 0.01-17.02 ind. m-3 and 0.0005-0.7181 mg DW. m-3 for P. acutus. The results showed that the contribution of P. richardi for the secondary production in the Caeté River Estuary is more important in the limnetic zone than in other zones where euhaline-polyhaline regimes were predominant. However, it was not possible to observe a clear pattern of spatial and temporal distribution for P. acutus.
