  • EBAP and ISEB in Search of a Brazilian Administration
    EBAP e ISEB na busca por uma administração brasileira: uma imersão nos anos 1950 para iluminar o século XXI Sergio Wanderley Universidade do Grande Rio (UNIGRANRIO), Rio de Janeiro – RJ, Brasil Ana Celano Instituto Brasileiro de Mercado de Capitais (IBMEC), Rio de Janeiro – RJ, Brasil Fátima Bayma Oliveira Fundação Getulio Vargas / Escola Brasileira de Administração Pública e de Empresas, Rio de Janeiro – RJ, Brasil Resumo O curso de administração se tornou o maior do Brasil e forma hoje um em cada cinco concluintes de curso superior. Dessa maneira, aumenta nossa responsabilidade como educadores em refletir sobre o conteúdo que ministramos. Nossa proposta de reflexão é um mergulho nos anos 1950 − momento da criação das primeiras escolas de graduação −, com base num diálogo entre documentos daquele período e três fontes de depoimentos de ex-alunos e ex-professores da Escola Brasileira de Administração Pública (EBAP): em periódicos da época, depoimentos para o livro comemorativo dos 50 anos da Escola Brasileira de Administração Pública e de Empresas (EBAPE) e entrevistas atuais com alunos e professores da época. A ciência da administração que se construía na década de 1950 era vinculada ao desenvolvimento, rejeitava o apriorismo da gerência científica recebida dos EUA e buscava, a partir das ciências sociais, promover de maneira crítica conteúdo que propiciasse a adaptação das técnicas importadas à nossa realidade. Nessa busca por representar o contexto local, a EBAP se aproximou das proposições do Instituto Superior de Estudos Brasileiros (ISEB) e da Comissão Econômica para a América Latina e o Caribe (CEPAL). A apreensão do contexto local é fundamental para a formação de bons profissionais.

The takeover by the Czechoslovak Communist Party in 1948 and the rising tensions of the Cold War isolated the Czechoslovak manufacturer from the other European producers. This resulted in a redirection of Škoda exports towards the Soviet Union and the CMEA countries. The paper argues that the technical and commercial relationships maintained by Škoda with its dealers in the neutral countries - in particular Finland, Switzerland, Austria and Sweden - during the First and Second Five-Year Plans, played an important role in stimulating and orienting the modernization of the Czechoslovak automobile production.

  • Immigrant Representation in the Swedish Parliament: Towards Homogeneity Or United Diversity?
    Immigrant Representation in the Swedish Parliament: Towards Homogeneity or United Diversity? Gunnhildur Lily Magnusdottir ¹ ∗∗∗ ¹ Malmö University, Department of Global Political Studies, 205 06 Malmö, Sweden. K EYWORDS A BSTRACT The current study explores how immigrants are represented within the two largest political parties in Sweden, the Social Democratic Party and the Moderate Party. Apart from exploring the descriptive representation of immigrants in the Swedish parliament, this article explores whether immigrant representation in the two parties in question results in visible diversity in views on immigration and in particular asylum politics. We are predominantly interested in exploring whether Immigration immigrant parliamentarians, who might have identities Intersectionality and experiences differing from the majority of the Institutionalism parliamentarians, represent views departing from the Descriptive and general party lines. The theoretical underpinnings of the article are based on an intersectionality approach and substantive historical and feminist institutionalism, specifically the representation politics of presence, which explores the link between a critical mass in politics and critical acts or substantive representation. The first findings of the study, which have been reached primarily through a qualitative comparative analysis of survey material, are mixed. The number of Social Democratic and Moderate immigrant parliamentarians does not reach the level of foreign-born citizens in Sweden. Nevertheless, there appears to be room for diverse views on immigration and asylum politics that depart from the general party lines in both parties. ∗ Contact address: [email protected] (G.L.

  • A Case Study of Barriers to Entry That Swedish Companies Face in the Brazilian Market
    A Case Study of Barriers to Entry that Swedish companies face in the Brazilian market Mattias Davidsson Jakob Tilhon Handledare: Stefan Lagrosen Examinator: Jonas Nilsson Kandidatuppsats i företagsekonomi 15 hp Institutionen för ekonomi och informatik Högskolan Väst Vårterminen 2011 ABSTRACT Background: Through globalization, the world has changed a lot the latest decades and given people more freedom. Free trade is part of globalization and spreads prosperity and wealth. Sweden is a small and international economy and Brazil is a large and growing economy. More establishments of Swedish companies in the Brazilian market would benefit both Brazil and Sweden in many ways. Purpose: The purpose of this study is to create an understanding of the barriers to entry that Swedish companies can face when they choose to establish themselves in the Brazilian market. Method: This case study is deductive with a qualitative approach. We have conducted interviews on site in Brazil, with representatives from Swedish companies and organizations. The data from these interviews form the basis of our analysis. We chose to supplement the analysis with secondary data in the form of reports from the Swedish Embassy and Swedish organizations. Results: In our case study we have found that the biggest barriers to entry the Brazilian market for Swedish companies are high import duties, bureaucracy, expensive labor force, criminality, high tax burden, lack of knowledge in the English language, a complex tax system, and basic cultural differences. Key words: Brazilian market, Swedish companies, barriers to entry, cultural differences ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS There are several people that have contributed to complete this study, some more than others, but all of significance.

  • The Effects of Birth Weight Over the Life Cycle
    The Effects of Birth Weight over the Life Cycle Prashant Bharadwaj, Petter Lundborg and Dan-Olof Rooth∗ August 2013 Abstract This paper provides evidence on the role of birth weight in determining income, so- cial benefits take up and mortality at each point over the life cycle. A unique dataset on nearly all Swedish male twins born between 1926-1958 containing information on birth weight is linked with administrative records spanning nearly entire life time la- bor market participation. We find that birth weight and income are positively linked for large parts of the life cycle, although there is some evidence of a fade out after age 50. Our results indicate that lower birth weight children are more likely to avail of social benefit programs such as unemployment insurance and welfare. Finally, our point estimates suggest that birth weight might matter for adult mortality; however, these estimates are not always statistically significant. ∗Bharadwaj: UC San Diego ([email protected]), Lundborg: Lund University, Rooth: Linneaus University. Much thanks to Julie Cullen and participants at the NBER Cohort Studies Meeting for comments and to Matt Gibson for superb research assistance. 1 1 Introduction Economic research in the last decade has shown considerable consensus on the importance of early childhood health in determining various short and long term outcomes (Almond and Currie 2011, Heckman 2007). Birth outcomes, and in particular birth weight has been shown to matter for educational achievement in school, completed years of education,

  • Histories of Knowledge in Postwar Scandinavia; Actors, Arenas, and Aspirations
    Scandinavia A corporatist model of knowledge? Johan Strang This book gathers twelve fascinating stories about the history of knowledge in postwar Scandinavia. It presents us with a broad range of source materials, questions, and focal points, from government information on nuclear fallout to left-wing oppositional book cafés. In this epilogue, I reflect upon the find- ings of the book from the perspective of an intellectual historian of 20th- century Norden.1 I start by making some general outsider reflections on the emerging field of the history of knowledge, before discussing what the book contributes with regarding the role of Scandinavia in the global circulation of knowledge, the relations between the Scandinavian countries, and knowledge in the welfare state and the particular period in focus in this book, the 1960s and 1970s. As an intellectual historian, there is undoubtedly much I can symphatize with in the history of knowledge. Crucial is the focus on the historiocity and chang- ing nature of knowledge, on the transformations and interpretations of knowl- edge when it travels from one context to another, and on questions regarding social and cultural authority. Trained as a philosopher, however, I cannot help that my initial reflex when confronted with the term “history of knowledge” is that of a slight concern with the unnecessary epistemological commitment that seems to follow from professing to study “knowledge” rather than “ideas”. The theoretical literature on the history of knowledge has pursued this issue in a variety of ways, ranging from Philipp Sarasin’s and Simone Lässig’s emphasis on rationality, reason, and evidence to Peter Burke’s more pragmatic approach, according to which historians of knowledge study whatever the historical actors themselves considered knowledge.2 Only a few chapters in the book at hand dwell on these kinds of theoretical reflections.

  • Variation by Sample Type in the Cross-National Analysis of Occupational Prestige Structures
    INFORMATION TO USERS This was produced from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or “target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is “Missing Page(s)”. If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure you of complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark it is an indication that the film inspector noticed either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, or duplicate copy. Unless we meant to delete copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed, you will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photo­ graphed the photographer has followed a definite method in “sectioning” the material. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand comer of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again-beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. For any illustrations that cannot be reproduced satisfactorily by xerography, photographic prints can be purchased at additional cost and tipped into your xerographic copy.

  • Occupation and Risk of Primary Fallopian Tube Carcinoma in Nordic Countries

International Journal of Cancer Page 2 of 21 Abstract The aetiology of primary Fallopian tube carcinoma (PFTC) is poorly understood. Occupational exposures may contribute to PFTC risk. We studied incidence of PFTC in occupational categories in the Nordic female population aged 30-64 years during the 1960, 1970, 1980/1981 and/or 1990 censuses in Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden. Standardized incidence ratios (SIRs) for the years following inclusion in the study up to 2005 were calculated for 53 occupations; the expected numbers of cases were based on PFTC incidence in the national populations. Altogether 2206 PFTC cases were detected during follow up via data linkages with the Nordic cancer registries. Significantly increased risks of PFTC were observed for smelting workers (SIR 3.99, 95% confidence interval 1.46- 8.68,Obs=6), artistic workers (2.64, 1.44-4.43,Obs=14), hairdressers (2.18, 1.41-3.22,Obs=25), packers (1.62, 1.11-2.29,Obs=32), nurses (1.49, 1.14- 1.92,Obs=60), shop workers (1.25, 1.07-1.46,Obs=159) and clerical workers (1.20, 1.07-1.35,Obs=271) and these sustained over times and different Nordic countries.
