Impacto De Mídia Internacional IMPACTO DE MÍDIA INTERNACIONAL FGV SOCIAL - INTERNACIONAL O escopo de atuação da FGV Social vai além do território brasileiro. Constantemente participamos de palestras, seminários e congressos em diversos países, além de atendermos demandas de projetos de pesquisa e análise de políticas públicas para governos, organizações não governamentais e organismos multilaterais. Proferimos palestras e keynote speeches em lugares como Princeton, Columbia, MIT, Harvard, Chicago, Brown, Oxford, Cambridge, LSE, PSE, OECD e Davos. Ao lado de organismos internacionais tradicionais como ONU e suas agências, Banco Mundial, entre outros, procuramos desenvolver trabalhos complementares. Avaliamos projetos sociais em mais de duas dezenas de países. Uma publicação nossa nesta linha é “Microcredit Diaries: assessing microcredit impacts on grassroots development in Peru, Nicaragua and Mexico”. Desde 2006, a comunidade internacional demonstrou vasto interesse nas pesquisas divulgadas. Temas como pobreza, desigualdade e políticas associadas ocupam um lugar de destaque desde o início. A criação do knowledge hub World Without Poverty (WWP) e o prêmio que recebemos da Global Development Network, em 2005, por um modelo de proposta que vincula políticas sociais locais às Metas de Desenvolvimento do Milênio são fruto desta demanda externa. As pesquisas sobre a ascensão da nova classe média também ganharam importância, incorporando a demanda de um público mais empresarial. Visitamos, por exemplo, neste processo, todos os países dos BRICS, além de participar em eventos da OCDE e do Forum Econômico Mundial (WEF) para debater este tema. Neste processo fortalecemos a presença da FGV no âmbito internacional. Isso ocorre de forma mais expressiva através da divulgação de pesquisas voltadas ao público externo, incluindo acadêmicos, formadores de opinião, gestores de políticas. Nessas pesquisas fornecemos insumos adicionais mais qualificados, como bancos de dados interativos em inglês. Mas o nosso principal objetivo é chegar ao cidadão comum de outras partes, através da mídia estrangeira, nosso principal canal de comunicação. Sucessivas matérias foram publicadas nos principais veículos internacionais: The Economist, Financial Times, NY Times, The Washington Post, The Wall Streeet Journal, BBC, CNN, El País, La Nacion, Le Monde, Le Figaro, entre outros. A vantagem desta estratégia mais horizontal de difusão é que atingimos de uma só vez a todos os segmentos do público- alvo em diversos países simultaneamente. + DE 1.136 MATÉRIAS INTERNACIONAIS IMPACTO NOS PRINCIPAIS JORNAIS E REVISTAS INTERNACIONAIS 19 07 23 18 08 04 09 08 04 03 04 17 MATÉRIAS EM + DE 64 PAÍSES IMPACTO NOS PAÍSES Países África do Sul Colômbia Holanda Omã Alemanha Coreia Honduras Paraguai Angola Costa Rica Hungria Peru Arábia Saudita Cuba Índia Porto Rico Argélia Chipre Indonésia Portugal Argentina Dinamarca Inglaterra Reino Unido Austrália El Salvador Irã Rep.

  • Muslim Persecution of Christians
    MUSLIM PERSECUTION OF CHRISTIANS By Robert Spencer 1 Muslim Persecution of Christians Copyright 2008 David Horowitz Freedom Center PO Box 55089 “Get out your weapons,” commanded Jaffar Umar Thalib, Sherman Oaks, CA 91423 a 40-year-old Muslim cleric, over Indonesian radio in May (800) 752-6562 2002. “Fight to the last drop of blood.”1 [email protected] The target of this jihad was Indonesian Christians. Christians, Jaffar explained, were “belligerent infidels” www.TerrorismAwareness.org (kafir harbi) and entitled to no mercy. This designation was ISBN # 1-886442-36-3 not merely a stylistic flourish on Jaffar’s part. On the contrary, Printed in the United States of America kafir harbi is a category of infidel that is clearly delineated in Islamic theology. By using this term, Jaffar was not only inciting his followers to violence, but telling them that their actions were theologically sanctioned. Jaffar’s words had consequences. The death toll among Indonesian Christians in the chaos that followed was estimated to be as high as 10,000, with countless thousands more left homeless.2 Journalist Rod Dreher reported in 2002 that Jaffar Umar Thalib’s jihadist group, Laskar Jihad, had also “forcibly converted thousands more, and demolished hundreds of churches.”3 What happened in Indonesia was treated by the international press as an isolated incident. In fact, however, the violent jihad there was part of the ongoing persecution of Christians by Muslims throughout the Islamic world. This violence, reminiscent of barbarous religious conflicts of seven 2 3 hundred years ago, is the dirty little secret of contemporary Boulos’ parish had to denounce the mildly critical remarks religion.

  • International Media Impact Fgv Social - International
    INTERNATIONAL MEDIA IMPACT FGV SOCIAL - INTERNATIONAL The scope of action of FGV Social goes beyond Brazilian territory. We constantly participate in lectures and seminars in several countries, in addition to meeting specific demands for research projects and analysis of public policies for governments, non-governmental organizations and multilateral organizations. We give lectures and keynote speeches in places like Princeton, Columbia, MIT, Harvard, Chicago, Brown, Oxford, Cambridge, LSE, PSE, OECD and Davos. Alongside traditional international organizations such as the UN and its agencies, the World Bank, among others, we seek to develop complementary works. We evaluated social projects in more than two dozen countries. One publication in this line is “Microcredit Diaries: assessing microcredit impacts on grassroots development in Peru, Nicaragua and Mexico”. Since 2006, international community has shown widespread interest in our researches. Issues such as poverty, inequality and associated policies are prominent from the outset. The creation of the World Without Poverty (WWP) knowledge hub and the award we received from the Global Development Network in 2005 for a model proposal linking local social policies to the Millennium Development Goals are fruits of this external demand. Our research on the rise of the new middle class has also gained significant importance, incorporating the demand of a more business- oriented audience. For example, we visited all BRICS countries in this process, as well as participating in OECD events and the World Economic Forum (WEF) to discuss this theme. In this process we have strengthen the presence of FGV in the international arena. This occurs most significantly through the dissemination of research aimed at the external public, including academics, opinion makers and policy makers.

  • Guangxi – Catholics – House Churches - Vatican
    Refugee Review Tribunal AUSTRALIA RRT RESEARCH RESPONSE Research Response Number: CHN32603 Country: China Date: 3 December 2007 Keywords: CHN32603 - China – Guangxi – Catholics – House Churches - Vatican This response was prepared by the Research & Information Services Section of the Refugee Review Tribunal (RRT) after researching publicly accessible information currently available to the RRT within time constraints. This response is not, and does not purport to be, conclusive as to the merit of any particular claim to refugee status or asylum. This research response may not, under any circumstance, be cited in a decision or any other document. Anyone wishing to use this information may only cite the primary source material contained herein. Questions 1. How are Catholics treated in Guangxi? Please provide information on Catholic house churches. 2. I understand progress has been made in terms of relations between the Chinese government and the Vatican. Could you please provide an overview and update on that? RESPONSE 1. How are Catholics treated in Guangxi? Please provide information on Catholic house churches. Limited information was found regarding the treatment of Catholics in the Guangxi province. In October 2007 China Aid reported that Catholics priests who publicly distributed a letter from the Pope in Nanning, the capital of Guangxi, were forced to attend political propaganda sessions. A 2003 article by Agence-France Presse reports on a police crackdown on “illegal religious organisations” in Xilin, a south eastern town in Guangxi and the detention of three individuals with Bibles without trial. However, no further recent information was found in the sources consulted regarding the situation for Catholics in Guangxi.

  • Executive Pay: Over the Top?
    Executive Pay: Over the Top? ZENIT News Agency – Rome, Italy May 7, 2005 Debate Continues over Lavish Salaries NEW YORK, MAY 7, 2005 (Zenit.org).- Salary levels for chief executives at many large companies continue to raise question marks over the correct way to determine compensation. In the United States, firms have been filing their data for 2004. At 179 large companies that did not change their chief executive last year, salaries for the chief executive officer rose an average of 12% on the previous year, the New York Times reported April 3. The Times commented that the issue of remuneration for company leaders has become more sensitive in recent times given that shareholders are still trying to recover losses following the stock market drop after 2000. In the face of criticism, companies are limiting some aspects of salaries, and there are increasing efforts to link salaries to company performance. For example, John Alm, who took over as chief executive at Coca-Cola in January 2004, will receive shares in the company, but it is conditional on targets set for an increase in the firm's stock prices. Questions persist over matters such as payments for retiring CEOs. The New York Times gave the example of Lockheed Martin chief executive Vance Coffman, who retired last August with a lump-sum payment of $31.5 million. Other executives will receive lavish pensions for as long as they live. For example, Henry McKinnell Jr., chairman and chief executive of Pfizer, will be paid about $6.5 million a year after he retires, and Lee Raymond, Exxon Mobil's chief executive, will receive $5.9 million a year.

He couldn't have killed six million [Jews]. It couldn't have been more than four million. Opus Dei is also accused of elitism , of targeting "the intellectual elite, the well-to-do, and the socially prominent. Sociologists Peter Berger and Samuel Huntington suggest that Opus Dei is involved in "a deliberate attempt to construct an alternative modernity," one that engages modern culture while at the same time is resolutely loyal to Catholic traditions. In her book on Opus Dei, Maggy Whitehouse , a non-Catholic journalist, argues that the relative autonomy of each director and center has resulted in mistakes at the local level. She recommends greater consistency and transparency for Opus Dei, which she sees as having learned the lesson of greater openness when it faced the issues raised by The Da Vinci Code and other critics.
