Analisou-se as relações familiares, as conexões entre estruturas de poder político, partidos políticos e estruturas de parentesco, formas de nepotismo, a reprodução familiar dos principais atores. Pesquisou-se a lógica familiar, as genealogias, as práticas sociais, políticas e o ethos familiar dentro das instituições políticas para entender de que maneira as origens sociais e familiares dos atores burocráticos, jurídicos e políticos formam um certo "habitus de classe", certa mentalidade política, uma cultura administrativa, uma visão social de mundo, padrões de carreiras e de atuações políticas relativamente homogêneos. As origens sociais, a formação escolar, acadêmica, as práticas profissionais, os cargos estatais, os privilégios e os estilos de vida, as ideologias e os valores políticos apresentam muitos elementos em comum nas biografias, e nas trajetórias sociais e políticas desses atores.

  • Rio Olympics Artical Name : Can Brazil Overcome Internal
    Artical Name : Rio Olympics Artical Subject : Can Brazil Overcome Internal Challenges? Publish Date: 03/08/2016 Auther Name: Dr. Sudfa Mohammed Mahmud Subject : Brazil has witnessed various major developments between 2009, the year Rio de Janeiro was chosen to stage the 2016 Summer Olympics, and 2016, the year the games are taking place. These developments cast a shadow on the country¶s political, economic and social situation, as well as Brazil¶s credibility as a rising global power.When Rio de Janeiro won the bid to host the 2016 Olympics, seven years ago, the Brazilian President then, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, said, ³the world has recognized that the time has come for Brazil. Today, more than ever, I am proud to be Brazilian. Brazil has gained a global citizenship and international respect.´Indeed, the success of Rio¶s bid over Madrid¶s was a reflection of Brazil¶s rise as a key economic, political and cultural player on the international scene. It is the first South American country to host the Olympic Games.Fast forward to 2016, the eyes of millions of people, from around the world, are focused on the South American nation from August 5th until the 21st. While Brazil is struggling to overcome its internal challenges, it is attempting to take the leverage it needs from this major sports event to improve its status, and global image.Internal challengesBrazil is facing economic and political challenges, as well as security and health- related threats. These challenges will have implications on political stability, and social cohesion.1. Economic crisisBrazil is suffering from a major economic crisis, with slow growth rates.

  • Antonio Rel V3
    Writer / Director Antonio Padovan PRESS RELEASE For Immediate Release Contact: Steve Thompson Thompson Communications 856-942-4434 [email protected] PRINCIPAL PHOTOGRAPHY COMPLETE ON AWARD-WINNING WEST VILLAGE BASED DIRECTOR’S FILM “TILLMAN” SHOT IN IN HUNTINGTON AND JAMAICA-QUEENS LONG ISLAND New York, NY – July, 2011 – Principal photograpy has been completed on writer / director Antonio Padovan’s current film Tillman, shot in Huntington and Jamaica- Queens, Long Island. Padovan selected Huntington and Jamaica-Queens NY because “We wanted the film to have a genuine ‘suburban’ feeling. While we were searching for a house and a neighborhood for the ‘Tillmans’ we visited several places in the NY area but all of the potential locations we visited had a city feeling that wasn't quite fitting the story. Then we found a wonderful residential neighborhood in Huntington, with quiet streets and beautiful homes. The dealership where ‘Richard Tillman’ works is located in Jamaica-Queens, halfway between Manhattan and Huntington, so everything worked out very well.” While a relative newcomer to filmmaking, Antonio Padovan’s films have been accepted by fifteen film festivals, and so far he has earned four awards and one honorable mention. Tillman is the story of Richard Tillman, a father who has continued to procrastinate regarding his important life decisions, and now regrets the life – and family – he has ended up with. About the film Antonio comments: “Most films portray ordinary people dealing with extraordinary situations, facing extraordinary choices. This film does not. The characters in it don’t have the privilege to deal with anything special. They are trapped in their ordinary life.
