O idoso como cidadão: Enfrentando o abandono familiar da pessoa idosa
Este estudo tem como objetivo apresentar e analisar o envelhecimento populacional, suas políticas, a responsabilidade da família para os cuidados com seu parente idoso e a atuação do profissional de Serviço Social na garantia dos direitos da pessoa idosa. Considerar o envelhecimento como uma conquista significa garantir políticas públicas direcionadas aos idosos que lhes assegure viver uma velhice com dignidade. Iremos citar também a redução do papel protetor do Estado no que concerne à garantia de direitos e de condições dignas de vida para essa população com a passagem de suas responsabilidades para o terceiro setor e sociedade civil. A legislação brasileira assegura uma melhor qualidade de vida para o idoso, sendo conhecida como a Constituição Cidadã, mas veremos que não condiz com a realidade vivenciada pelos idosos brasileiros. Veremos na verdade um abandono estatal e a culpabilização à família.This study aims to present and analyze the aging population, its policies, the family's responsibility to care for their elderly relative and the performance of professional social work in ensuring the rights of the elderly. Consider it aging as an achievement means ensuring public policies for the elderly to ensure they live a dignified old age. We will also mention the reduction in state protective role regarding the guarantee of rights and decent living conditions for this population with the passage of their responsibilities to the third sector and civil society. Brazilian law ensures a better quality of life for the elderly, being known as the Citizen Constitution, but we will see that not reflect the real situation of the elderly in Brazil. We will see in fact a state abandonment and blame the famil
Diet of the clupeid fish Platanichthys platana (Regan, 1917) in two different Brazilian coastal lagoons
Platanichthys platana is considered a constant species in both Cabiúnas and Imboassica lagoons that are characterised by different marine and freshwater inputs, and anthropogenic influences. The stomach content analysis of P. platana captured between July 1991 and July 1993 revealed filamentous algae, detritus, eggs of benthic invertebrates, larvae of chironomids and bivalves as the main food sources in Imboassica lagoon. Small-sized cladocerans, copepods and shrimp larvae were the prevailing items in Cabiúnas lagoon. Seasonal food variations were noted for the fishes of Imboassica lagoon. Diet differences were highlighted within specimens lesser than 40 mm standard length in Imboassica lagoon, and were related to the increase of marine influence due to artificial sand barrier openings. Dissimilarities among size classes in relation to invertebrate larvae consumption were observed in fishes from Cabiúnas lagoon
