Crise, documentário e representação: uma análise do filme “Capitalismo: uma história de amor”, de Michael Moore
No full textTCC (Graduação) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina. Centro Socioeconômico. Curso de Administração.Crises econômicas não se limitam aos aspectos financeiros, afetam a vida de muitos cidadãos despertando nestes o questionamento acerca do próprio sistema econômico. Neste sentido Michael Moore procura fazer uma análise do sistema capitalista em seu filme: “Capitalismo: Uma História de Amor” (2009), tendo como âncora a crise americana de 2008. Filmes documentários possuem certa intenção de verossimilhança com o real, informando e despertando seus espectadores para a reflexão acerca do tema. Desta forma, constituem-se como uma forma de representação da realidade social do sujeito que o produz. Este trabalho, de caráter descritivo, busca identificar uma “visão de mundo” do diretor Michael Moore a partir de seu filme, fazendo aporte a teoria das representações sociais de Moscovici. Desta forma, foram levantadas 4 categorias de análise, a saber: capitalismo, crise de 2008, comportamento das organizações (casos de fraudes, escândalos) e Wall Street. Ao final, há indícios uma “visão de mundo” de Moore, que seria perpassada por elementos que fogem as categorizações da pesquisa, estando presentes em todas elas. Como sua a ideia de igualdade e justiça; a face inescrupulosa das organizações e de certos conglomerados como Wall Street

UKMARC AMC: Draft Rev 4.0: UK MARC format for archives and manuscripts control (UK MARC AMC)
No full textThis draft is the first attempt to establish a UK MARC specifically for Archives and Manuscripts Control since the British Library indicated that it would countenance such extensions to the national UK MARC format. In order to keep consistency with the general UK MARC format, standard UK MARC subject fields are not included in this document, since they should be taken from the latest version of the UK MARC manual. {A note of them should perhaps be included in UK MARC AMC.} {NB Text in braces is intended to be explanatory material for readers of this draft}. Certain other fields have not been included that might occasionally be used in the cataloguing of archival materials but would generally only be used for such materials in organizations which were combining archive
databases with library databases. This MARC version is intended for use with descriptions of archive or anuscript material that follow, or fit, the traditional style of cataloguing: we assume that these will normally relate
to paper or parchment originals. It is not intended for use with descriptions of other kinds of material. For these, fields may be drawn from the appropriate UK MARC document. MARC versions for use with archives in special formats should be developed, in order to complete the full range of facilities available to archivists and curators

Towards the synthesis of marine natural products and their analogues by exploiting the Moore rearrangement
No full textSince its development in the 1980s, the Moore rearrangement has become a powerful and versatile tool in synthetic chemistry.1 Mainly exploited in the synthesis of quinones, it can be used to access complex structures by careful manipulation of the reaction conditions. Herein is discussed its application in the synthesis of analogues of the natural product cribrostatin 6, as well as towards the first total synthesis of the pyrroloacridine alpkinidine. Cribrostatin 6, isolated in 2003, has been shown to be active against seven cancer cell lines.2 Following the procedure developed by Harrowven et al.,3 cribrostatin 6 along with ten analogues were prepared for screening against the cancer cell line MCF-7. The results have shown the quinone unit to be amenable to change, with trends apparent in the cytotoxicity of these related compounds with respect to the nature of the substituents at position 8 and 9 on the cribrostatin 6 skeleton, their steric bulk and electronic properties. Further work is required to confirm these preliminary results in conjunction with exploring the effects of modifying the imidazopyridine unit. With alpkinidine, synthetic work has looked to exploit this ring expansion in order to generate part of the fused pentacyclic ring system of this target natural product. Despite setbacks encountered along the way, the assembly of three of the five rings was achieved. Unfortunately, an inability to initiate the cascade of reactions required to furnish the last two rings of this acridine system halted progress towards alpkinidine. Although the target system could not be reached with the initial route developed, the Moore rearrangement still represents an interesting means of establishing part of this pyrroloacridine system.Should this prove not feasible, an alternative route based around an isoquinoline core has also been proposed
