Justice and violence in the Lands of the Assecas (Rio de Janeiro, 1729-1745).
En 24 de septiembre de 1729, la Corona portuguesa determinó que el Oidor Mayor (Ouvidor Mor) de Rio de Janeiro revisase el proceso judicial relativo a las tierras pertenecientes al Vizconde de Asseca, «no solo para administrar justicia a los habitantes de dichos territorios sino para castigar los delitos que se comentan en ellos, de acuerdo a su calidad». En 1731, en un mensaje enviado al secretario de Estado, Diogo de Mendonça Corte Real, los empleados del ayuntamiento y los vecinos de la ciudad de S. Salvador in Paraíba do Sul informaron de que el vizconde había obstruido la justicia. El análisis de la atractiva historia de Diogo Correia de Sá, tercer vizconde de Asseca, durante las primeras décadas del siglo XVIII, constituye el marco para la discusión de los derechos sobre la tierra y los conflictos de intereses de la familia Asseca, la administración colonial y un grupo heterogéneo de residentes que habitaban la tierra en disputa.On September 24, 1729, the Portuguese Crown determined that the Chief Justice (Ouvidor Mor) of Rio de Janeiro should review the judicial procedure (correição) concerning the lands belonging to the Viscount of Asseca, «not only to administer justice to dwellers of these lands, but also to punish the crimes there committed, according to their nature». In 1731, in a message sent to the Secretary of State Diogo de Mendonça Corte Real, the Municipal Council officials and the people of the town of S. Salvador in Paraíba do Sul informed that the Viscount had obstructed justice. An analysis of the compelling story of Diogo Correia de Sá –the 3rd Viscount of Asseca– during the first decades of the 18th century, sets the scene for a discussion of land rights and conflicts of interest involving the Asseca family, the colonial administration and a diverse group of «residents» who lived on the disputed land
A changing role for universities in the periphery
An international research on interactions between universities and firms is an opportunity to investigate this subject beyond the developed countries. This project involves 12 countries from three continents: Africa (South Africa, Nigeria and Uganda), Asia (South Korea, China, India, Thailand and Malaysia) and Latin America (Mexico, Costa Rica, Argentina and Brazil). This paper introduces a theoretical framework to deal with this broad set of countries, their different levels of NSI formation and their different levels of development. This framework may help public policies to understand the role of universities for a country search for an “active insertion in the international division of labor”.interactions between firms and universities, National Innovation Systems, catch up processes.
Break comercial : pequenas histórias do cotidiano : narrativas publicitárias na cultura da mídia

do homem em seu cotidiano, inserido numa cultura da mídia e tendo como suporte teórico-metodológico a narratologia. Procede-se à análise do comercial das sandálias Havaianas para exemplificar como podem ser guiados os gestos de leitura e fruição dessas narrativas, a fusão de horizontes de compreensão do espectador e do produtor da
mensagem. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACTThis paper discusses advertising discourse as one of man’s narratives in everyday life, inserted within media culture.

Antiguidade é posto: a Aldeia de Imbuí, conflitos e memórias (séculos XIX e XXI)
The conflicts concerning the areas belonging to the Federal Government of Brazil in the region known as Forte do Imbuí beach, located in Jurujuba, Rio de Janeiro, are the object of this article. We intend to discuss the unfolding of the justice process about the area, considered a national security zone, as well as analyze the production of “truths” about the region and the memory threads which legitimize the occupation by ancient inhabitants of the region, nowadays facing an accelerated process of eviction. For that purpose, the text revisits the confrontations about the area and presents the main elements to justify the inclusion of the Aldeia, constituted in the 19th century, in the scope of traditional community denomination.Keywords: Imbuí village, history and memory, land conflict, traditional community.As querelas sobre as áreas em tese pertencentes à União na região conhecida como Praia do Forte de Imbuí, Jurujuba, Rio de Janeiro, é o objeto deste artigo. Nele, pretendemos discutir os encaminhamentos da justiça sobre a área considerada de segurança nacional, além de analisar a produção das “verdades” sobre a região e os fios das memórias que legitimam a ocupação dos antigos habitantes da região, hoje em acelerado processo de expulsão. Para tanto, o texto revisita os embates sobre a área e apresenta os principais elementos que justificaram a inscrição da Aldeia no âmbito da denominação de comunidade tradicional, constituída no século XIX.Palavras-chave: Aldeia de Imbuí, história e memória, conflito de terra, comunidade tradicional
História & Direito Colonial: um debate audacioso
O texto a seguir reconstitui as principais questões acerca da querela que envolveu dois grandes modernistas nos anos 2000: o português Antônio Manuel Hespanha e a brasileira Laura de Mello e Souza. O fértil debate entre os dois estava assentado nas discordantes posições sobre o chamado direito colonial na América Portuguesa. Como desdobramento, havia também a pertinência ou não do emprego do conceito de Antigo Regime para a colônia. A partir do diálogo sobre a produção dos dois emblemas da produção historiográfica luso-brasileira, o artigo aponta algumas reflexões sobre o direito proveniente dos exemplares estudos do inglês E. P. Thompon e do sociólogo francês P. Bourdieu
Interactions between firms and universities in an immature system of innovation: a survey of industrial R&D-performers firms in Minas Gerais, Brazil
This paper presents preliminary results from a survey of R&D-performer industrial firms located in the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil. The inspiration for this research comes from the Yale Survey (Klevorick et all, 1995) and from the Carnegie Mellon Survey (Cohen et all, 2002), for these Surveys are groundwork for the study of interactions between universities and firms. The objective of this Minas Gerais Survey (MG Survey, henceforth) is the investigation of specific characteristics of the interaction between universities and firms in an 'immature national system of innovation'. The first section summarizes the theoretical questions putted forward by this investigation, specially the role of universities in immature NSIs. The second section investigates the Brazilian NSI using data from the IBGE’s PINTEC, focusing the R&D performer firms in Brazil and the importance of universities and public research institutes as source of knowledge for industrial innovation. This second section presents data that highlight the position of Minas Gerais in the Brazilian NSI and helps to define the MG Survey research universe. The third section summarizes the issues involved in the adaptation of the Yale and the Carnegie Mellon questionnaires to the Brazilian reality and in the identification of the R&D-performer firms in Minas Gerais. The fourth section presents the MG Survey results. The fifth section concludes the paper.systems of innovations, interactions between science and technologies
