What can we say about the word in philosophy? It's a thorny question likely to provoke the intelligence of any philosophical researcher. For it carries with it several facets concerning the meaning we can give to the word from a philosophical angle. In addition to the question listed above, we can only take up this kind of question and ask it a few more questions: what is the role of the word in philosophy? What is the role of philosophy in speech? What are the corollaries of bad conscience in speech? What are the corollaries of bad speech in consciousness? In the first axis, the author embodies the philosophy of Thomas Hobbes in its reflexive unity. It certainly seems highly relevant to him to revisit his philosophy, whose imprint is still evident today in various areas of life, and even more so in the social and political sciences.

A study of 137 first year medical students in Villa Clara was carried out to evaluate the relationship between chronotype, sleep-wake cycle time pattern and levels of physical motor activity in them. The intermediate chronotype predominated. It was also found that the behavioral phenotype is influenced by social obligations and sex. No hourly similarity was found between the actigraphy and the Munich Chronotype Questionnaire but equivalence was demonstrated between its chronotype estimation and that of the Matutinity and Vespertinity Questionnaire.Endogenous control of circadian rhythm does not influence the levels of physical activity displayed.

III Conference of Integration in pediatric academic activities, between two universities that share a formative vision: Universidad Católica del Norte and Universidad de los Andes.

Wood energy remains a major concern in the Dodjé/Tchad forest massif, where its use for cooking and brewing local beers is recurrent. The aim of this research is to assess the area of woody plant cover exploited as fuelwood and to propose strategies for sustainable management. To carry out the study, books, dissertations and articles were consulted in various libraries and institutions. A sample of 164 was surveyed. Floristic inventories were carried out on 18 plots, each 900 m² in size and 1 km apart, crossing several landscape units. Plot density, rarefaction index and LandSat image processing (1980, 2000 and 2020) were carried out. This analysis shows that the majority of households in the Dodjé forest massif use nothing but firewood. Out of 1,753 individuals, 52 woody species and 23 families were inventoried. The Dodjé forest massif has a regressive trend.

Banana growing, an activity of great global importance, is also an exponent in the state of Tocantins, with a major socio-economic impact on the state, since in addition to being one of the food bases, it also generates income and employment, ensuring that people stay in the countryside, especially on small properties. However, despite the aforementioned growth, banana growing still has some obstacles, such as post-harvest losses, inefficient transportation, fluctuating marketing prices and few destinations for production. Another point to note is the small number of studies on the crop in the state, but these are expected to increase due to the growing importance of the crop for Tocantins.

The following text aims to represent the basic characteristics of Crowdfunding, as an alternative form of financing to the classic forms of money supply proposed by financial intermediaries. This journey inside the world of crowdfunding will take us to discover its history, its evolution over time and the success it is accumulating from year to year as a viable alternative for financing innovative or high social impact entrepreneurial projects. The book will analyze and describe the various types of Crowdfunding that exist, highlighting their strengths and limitations based on the category of user who intends to access them. There will also be a mention of the regulatory aspects related to the tool and some tips for starting an effective crowdfunding campaign. Finally, a successful use case will be presented, the one related to the start-up BIOerg, showing its goals and achievements, through the words of the protagonists of this extraordinary initiative.

This project shows the market study of the crane-vehicle, built with the purpose of improving the movement and displacement of patients with difficulty to move or with limitations for their transfer. With the study we intend to know how to solve this human need in an efficient way, besides being accessible, safe, ergonomic, comfortable, durable, allowing diaper changing in this vehicle and that only one person does the work in support of their loved one. The need for transportation and mobility has become a basic need for some of them. Under these conditions, it is our objective to conduct the market study designed to identify the opinion of the population regarding the feasibility of putting on sale a vehicle crane that provides safety and agility in the mobilization of patients and secondly think of savings and accessible cost, in addition to avoiding injuries to people who help the patient, which will be known with the results obtained from the study.

To sum up, my proposal for France's reconquest of Africa is based on strengthening diplomatic relations, investing in economic development, security cooperation, education and training, and promoting regional cooperation. These actions would enable France to play a key role in Africa's development and stability, while strengthening its own economic and geopolitical interests.

With a thoughtful approach to the new challenges of inclusive education, the volume "Inclusive Education: itineraries in Special Pedagogy and Didactics" is a useful resource for those involved in Special Pedagogy and Didactics. Through an in-depth survey of methodologies, strategies and best practices, the volume promotes inclusive educational itineraries. The "itineraries" proposed here are, therefore, designed for educators, teachers and practitioners in order to respond to the different needs of each student, promoting inclusive learning.

On March 31, 2023, Burkina Faso's six humanitarian regions, including Boucle de Mouhoun, Centre Nord, Centre Est, Plateau Central, Est and Sahel, face a major crisis. More than two million displaced people are receiving food aid. This research publication reveals gaps in the legality, effectiveness and legitimacy of interventions. 72% of structures are not coordinated, 64% do not collaborate with the government. In terms of management efficiency, 95% have no contingency plan, and 87% have difficulty mobilizing funds. In terms of legitimacy, 50% are aware of aid sales, but 50% feel that food supplies comply with customs. In terms of coordination, 44% prefer civil society, 54% clusters and state structures. As for the legality of management, 50% have no head office in the intervention zone, and 73% have no agreement with the local authorities. Strategic responses are needed, with an emphasis on accountability. Coordinated action between humanitarian, governmental and civil society actors is urgently needed to ensure a response that respects the legal and cultural norms of the displaced.

This book is the product of three articles published in different countries Metamorfosis y características en tiempo de pandemia published in the Reincisol magazine of Ecuador, Rol desempeñado por los padres en época de pandemia, published in the Journal of Microbiology & Health Education, vol. 5, No. 2. 2023.

Our project is based on the "Implementation of a Data Mart database for the granting of bank loans at the Caisse d'Epargne Congolaise, (CADECO in acronym)", the objective pursued in this project is the implementation of a decision-making system application to meet the needs of the latter. Our contribution to the study was to produce a Data Mart on the granting of loans, and from this we built a decision tree which we interpreted at the end, and finally this tool enables the decision-maker to have a central vision of all the staff, enabling him to take a strategic decision. This new system we have just set up consists of automatic management of customers, with the said system, we hope that the management of decision-making at CADECO will become easy and pleasant, since it will enable certain difficulties to be resolved.

This text is dedicated to Professors, professionals of Electromedicine and all the innovators of this branch who with so much effort and dedication find dissimilar solutions to each technical failure. It is intended for technicians and engineers working in this area of scientific and technical knowledge and students of Electromedicine. Human activity is the main source of creation and development of the individual. Cognitive, evaluative, communicative and practical activity has allowed people to penetrate into the essence of objects, phenomena and processes, therefore, the source of knowledge is the external world that surrounds man, acts on him and provokes sensations, perceptions, representations, concepts, ideas. Only in the development of human activity does man acquire and develop his knowledge.

Our work can be considered as a contribution to the geotechnical and mineralogical study of the Oxfordian clays of the Frenda and Takhemaret regions (wilaya of Tiaret), which form part of north-western Algeria, given the lack of information and the fact that previous studies in this field and in this region are rare. Clays are of great economic importance, and are exploited as a raw material for brickworks (Frenda brickworks), the sectors exploited being those of Kef Lazreg (Frenda) and Oued el Abd (Takhemaret), The present study will focus first on field work, which involves taking samples, and then on laboratory work, where these samples will be subjected to X-ray diffractometry (XRD) analyses (mineralogical) and physico-chemical tests (geotechnical).This study could later be the starting point for other mineralogical and geotechnical characterization studies of the large clay formation of which ours is a part, which will undoubtedly help to classify the clays of this formation with a view to possible economic exploitation.

The legal system is a normative system of rules and principles. Rules and principles, therefore, are different kinds of norms (ALEXY, 2008). Understanding the differences between these two types of norms in terms of their content, normative structure and forms of application is fundamental to resolving conflicts. Robert Alexy's theory of principles, also with special reference to Ronal Dworkin's theory of principles (DWORKIN, 2012), guided this research in order to answer the question of what the normative structure of Article 5 (LVII) of the Constitution is, namely whether this constitutional provision is a rule or a principle. The normative distinction implies key developments for resolving the conflict faced by the Federal Supreme Court in the judgement of Habbeas Corpus 126.292-SP, deciding in the specific case whether it is possible to serve a sentence in advance of a final and unappealable criminal sentence.

This work aims to analyse the possibility of greater realisation of animal rights being analysed from an ecofeminist perspective in Brazilian law, in order to identify how it would be possible to achieve this fact, exposing the origin of the domination of animals by man, putting on the agenda how animals are treated and what would be the benefits for humanity in establishing animals as subjects of rights. In this vein, this research analyses the possibility of a paradigm shift from anthropocentrism to ecocentrism, as well as understanding the interaction and influence of ecofeminism to help implement animal rights effectively in Brazil, enabling a reflection for a future change in ethical stance, thus concluding that ecofeminism brings with it a new possibility of harmonisation in the lives of animals, making the defence of animals more discussed and seen from another angle than the traditional one because women in ecofeminism bring such a possibility.

The work is composed of two parts, the first, earlier, when the misogynist ultra-right movement studied, bolsonarismo, reached its peak in the process of fanaticism in Brazilian society after years of charlatan content freely disseminated under the guise of freedom of expression in the cyber universe; and the second, more recent - and not yet fully completed, since the ultra-right-wing hate pages with bolsonarist sexist content are still being monitored - seeks to identify pockets of extremist groups on the networks, their methods of action and the consequent real-life practices that lead to the incentive in such phallocentric niches to various forms of violence against women and / or their bodies.

The removal of Smear Layer (SL) after chemical-mechanical preparation of root canals is advocated in the literature, since its permanence is deleterious and can increase bacterial viability within dentinal tubules, isthmuses and accessory canals, preventing disinfection of this region, preventing effective contact of irrigating substances, penetration of intracanal medication and correct sealing by endodontic cements. The aim of this literature review was to discuss the effect of SL on the antibacterial capacity of disinfectant solutions, the efficacy of substances proposed in the literature and auxiliary devices for removing SL, as well as to verify the quality of root canal obturation in the presence or absence of SL. It can be seen that: SL reduces the bactericidal effect of irrigating solutions; various substances are effective for cleaning SL, however, EDTA 17% remains the gold standard in research. As for the protocols for agitating the irrigating solutions, the techniques for activating the solutions are superior to conventional needle irrigation.

The problem of this manuscript is to understand the role of the state in the (re)configuration of education policies, when the trend towards change, from a state-educator to a state-regulator, is based on the neoliberal discourse that with 'less' state but greater accountability, better results will be obtained. This process has led to a redefinition of the role and functions of the state in the social and economic spheres, causing constraints and power conflicts with regard to its political control. In this context, the market functions as a class strategy, creating mechanisms aimed at parents and families, reproducing social and economic inequalities. It is in this nebula of interests that education policies come to be conceived, that is, according to the desire for decentralisation and the hybrid materialisation of centralisation and openness to the market, depending on whether political decision-makers embark on the reforms offered to them by comparative studies, which feed preconditions and legitimise systems.

In the educational and methodological manual for the first time on the basis of psychological and criminological retrospective analysis of foreign and domestic studies, presented the dynamics of women's criminality over the past 100 years, characterized the main types of criminal behavior of female killers and female thieves, highlighted the main types of women criminals, based on criminal-anthropological, sociological and psychological scientific concepts, theories and paradigms.

The aim of this book is to analyse the crime of Corruption of Minors, provided for in the Brazilian Penal Code, from its origins as a crime of sexual dignity until the advent of the new wording brought in by Law 12015/2009, which also modified the Statute of the Child and Adolescent. The book also aims to carry out a criminological and psychological critique, mainly based on psychoanalysis, of both the old and current criminal offences of corruption.

When it comes to the study of Gramsci's work in Brazil, the Prison Notebooks still enjoy unsurpassed prominence in the eyes of researchers. The ways in which Gramsci relates to philosophical idealism, his first approximations to Leninist thought and his concerns about what the nature of a party of the proletariat should be have, already there, unavoidable formulations so that an understanding of the entirety of the Sardinian's thought can be made with a greater degree of rigour. What the author of this book sets out to do is to shed light on an earlier, but no less important, phase of Gramsci's production: the so-called "political writings", in particular the period she delimits between 1911 and 1921. Many of the concepts that will become enshrined in the prison writings have their genesis there. Marília Machado's book is a very valuable contribution to the studies and research that are still very much needed in our country on this very fruitful period in the life and thought of Antonio Gramsci. Leandro Galastri is a professor of Political Science at Unesp in Marília and the author of Gramsci, Marxism and Revisionism (2015).

This study deals with the concept of an expanded curriculum in Physical Education and Davidov and Leontiev's teaching theory as a possibility for objectifying human formation from an omnilateral perspective. We argue that the treatment of knowledge, school systematisation and the standardisation of school practices need to be based on a concept of an expanded curriculum. In this endeavour, Physical Education is included, understanding body culture as its object of study, in other words, as historical human production. The expanded curriculum is a possibility for the theoretical-methodological development of Davidian teaching theory in the school environment. Students will be engaged in study activities, which will allow them to develop their potential, which is not given a priori. Potentialities for appropriating the totality of man's productive capacities and, at the same time, access to the totality of capacities for consumption and satisfaction, above all enjoying spiritual goods as well as material ones, from which he is excluded as a result of the technical division of labour.

The purpose of this book is to provide the reader with a link between fundamental themes of justice and security that make it a special book, as it brings the debate on the management of public justice and security policies closer to the process of municipalisation of political decision-making, allowing us to think of alternatives to the obstacles of the current management model. The starting point arises from the importance and need to question the old and think of more effective alternatives for controlling public policies that involve the interface of the justice and security systems. The indispensable issue that articulates the texts, beyond the field of theoretical analysis, is the need to deepen legal research. The authors strive to show that, in the construction of consistent understandings of public justice and security policies, the scientific approach plays an important role in understanding the processes that culminate in the rational and collective choice of priorities for defining the public interests recognised in the Democratic State of Law.

The perception that there is no dialogue between language professionals and the documents that regulate the teaching of Portuguese is very enlightening and explains why there has been fragmentation in terms of working with reading, text production and grammatical reflection and, even more so, why students, for their part, also experience classroom situations in which different conceptual and methodological visions come into conflict. Added to this is the fact that most students don't like the subject of Portuguese because it is often restricted to the rigid teaching of "traditional" grammar. This book brings together some analyses of how students in a 3rd year secondary school class at a public technical school conceive of the study of language grammar, and how they behave when studying grammatical content during lessons. Our research is qualitative-interpretativist, ethnographic in nature, and for the elaboration of its corpus, it relied on field notes collected from class observations and questionnaires applied to students aged between 15 and 18 years old from a federal public school.

A member of the Pernambuco Academy of Letters, Gilvan Lemos was a very important writer for Brazilian Literature, and his texts deserve to be on the shelves of all readers who love powerful prose full of originality. A novelist who was silent in spoken words, but thunderous in his writing, he left a legacy that will live on for endless generations. Due to his shyness, he was not among the influential literary circles of his time; he preferred to be alone in his flat in Recife (where he was found dead in August 2015), but he nevertheless had many admirers throughout Brazil. He recognised his work as very good; he said that his books didn't even seem to be his own, because they were so good, but he didn't have the courage to go looking for publishers to publish them. Encouraged by friends, he gradually sent in his writings and they were immediately accepted and published. He never thought he would be a writer, but he was, and with mastery, perhaps because he wrote what he liked and what he owned, he wrote only for himself. But whether he wanted to or not, he managed to captivate many readers around the world and eternalised his literature.

This book provides an overview of the general aspects of Burnout Syndrome in nursing work, based on research and scientific articles on the subject.

Happy reading!

The female body has always been at the centre of representations made by Western metaphysics. These attributions of meaning had an essentialised view of the sex-desire-gender relationship and were responsible for underpinning religious, scientific and biological discourses. The naturalisation of gender discourse as a direct consequence of the discursive construct of sex remained unquestioned and distanced from power relations until critical gender studies. In this context, the representations of women in the novel Memorial de Maria Moura (1992) by Rachel de Queiroz (1910-2003) are pertinent, as they allow us to think about the construction of gender within power relations. Since the 1990s, gender studies have been interested in the writer Rachel de Queiroz. The female character in the novel Memorial de Maria Moura (1992) is represented by the signs of paternal and maternal orphanhood and loneliness. Maria Moura breaks away from the traditional gender roles of mother and wife and enters the public sphere of war and the quest for power.

The methodology of big data and information mining has had an impact on scenarios in which records are systematic and in that sense anticipate future power and influence relations between governing and governed actors. In this sense, the objective of this paper is to open the discussion on the construction of public policies based on theories and methodologies that, due to their historical record and volume, can be analyzed in such a way as to contribute to public decision making.
