The Subject

Under emergency conditions in the Brazilian educational system, since the turn of the 21st century, the National Curriculum Parameters consist of guidelines elaborated by the Federal Government with the purpose of guiding education, being separated by discipline. It is understood that reflective practice and critical involvement, in the context of extracting recreations in teaching, support debates and the development of teachers' productions and educational projects at the school, encourage reflection not only on pedagogical practice, but also about the planning of classes. Therefore, the objective of this work is to re-discuss, under the spectacles of the dialogic approach, some national parameters of education that govern Brazilian education, considering the expansion and potentializing of studies already carried out on the subject.

Subject Indexing

There remain theoretical and practical difficulties in the subject analysis of visual arts documents and the assignment of appropriate index terms. Visual arts indexing would be aided by an internationally agreed, controlled vocabulary with rules of usage. In devising such a language, subject knowledge and experience of the literature are as necessary as an understanding of indexing theory. Examples of current indexing practice are cited, notably PRECIS, Library of Congress, RILA, and the Répertoire d’Art et d’Archéologie.

The Republic

On December 12, 1948, the Committee of Good Offices submitted a special report on the direct talks between the representatives of the governments of the Netherlands and the Republic of Indonesia which, together with its appendices, made available previously confidential documentation that had been the subject of Security Council discussion. Of special interest were the so-called Crichtley-DuBois Memorandum of June 10, 1948, and the Cochran Memorandum of November 10, 1948. In the former, the Australian and United States' representatives had submitted to both parties a working paper for the resolution of differences containing the following suggestions: 1) that the extent of the Republic's representation in the Provisional Federal Government be determined on the basis that Republican territory would include all those portions of Java, Sumatra and Madura in which, through a plebiscite, the population expressed a desire to be incorporated into the Republic; 2) that it would be possible to create a fairly representative Provisional Federal Government through machinery which would consist of a Joint Commission of Technical Experts to delineate boundaries of states; a Constituent Assembly elected upon the basis of one delegate for each 500,000 inhabitants and given power to accept the report of the Technical Commission making changes in proposed state boundaries only by majorities of both the Assembly and the delegates from the areas affected by changes; and a Provisional Parliament. The memorandum proposed that the powers of the Lieutenant Governor-General be limited, in the provisional period, to a veto over acts of the Provisional Federal Government which were contrary to the Charter of the United Nations or to the Union Statute and to the direction, after consultation with the provisional authorities, of the employment of federal armed forces in cases of civil conflicts which the provisional authorities were unable to control.

The Subject

During the past twenty-five years, the Canadian federal government has introduced capital cost allowance measures eight times in order to change the direction or level of investment expenditures. Although the effectiveness of these measures has been the subject of a good deal of recent public controversy, no econometric studies exist which measure their impact. In this paper we examine the change in net machinery and equipment investment in the manufacturing sector of the Canadian economy caused by the capital cost allowance measures. We discover the timing and size of the impacts of the measures to be quite different from that which fiscal policy authorities currently believe.

PST is a public educational sport policy of the Brazilian Federal Government for the promotion of educational sports by the Ministry of Sport (2003-2018) with the support of the Collaborating Teams. The purpose of this article is to describe who these teams were, how educational sport was thought of by them, and how these Collaborating Teams approached teachers of Physical Education who worked in educational sport centers (Core Coordinators). For description and analysis, we used the literature review with the subject of professional training, educational sport and Programa Segundo Tempo [Second Time Program] and we count on documental analysis by Bardin (2011). We have conclude that the Collaborating Teams show the possibility of intervening in the training of Core Coordinators throughout the country, and for that, these Teams were formed by trainers (university professors) who worked in the search for dialogue with the Coordinators of Sports Core. This dialogue has the potential to reinvent sport, from a traditional sport to an educational sport aiming to ensure the rights of children and adolescents to access sport and leisure in Brazil.

Subject Indexing

Deals mainly with the subject indexing of law books which are produced primarily for the use of the legal profession and law students. Vocabulary is specially important to lawyers, for whom definitions of words are vital. Lawyers′ own terms, many of which are phrasal, must be used in indexes, although different works may require different approaches. The use of the words law and legal is examined, as are the order of words in headings, the use of prepositions and singular or plural forms. Specific rather than classified indexing is normally preferred. Advice is offered in relation to the indexing of references to legal matters in general books and in books on particular aspects of law for the layman.

The religious tourism management has been the subject of much attention in academic literature and has made a significant contribution in creating soft image in tourists' behavior. Pakistan has one of the best archaeological and religious historical sites in the world. Buddhist civilization at Taxila, Islamabad, Swat, and Takht Bai are of great interest for tourists from Japan, Korea, Thailand, and other countries. The aim of this chapter is to determine the promotion of religious tourism management for creating soft image in Pakistan. In this regard, initiatives of religious tourism by federal government are analyzed while incorporating input from easing immigration services, establishment of national tourism coordination board, infrastructure development, and pollution free environment, which leads to the soft image. An exploration of the nature of soft image requires examining the two key drivers: cognitive approach and the more recent cognitive-affective approach. Using quantitative method, various analysis techniques will be applied.

Federal Jurisdiction

This chapter describes the constitutional aspects of commercial law and focuses on division-of-powers issues relating to banking, bankruptcy, corporate, and securities law. The chapter makes two important observations. First, the broader jurisdictional lines in commercial law areas are mostly settled. Banking and bankruptcy are areas of federal jurisdiction, for example, whereas the provincial and federal governments have overlapping jurisdiction over corporate law. Securities law is an exception. Although securities law has historically been under provincial control, the appropriate role of the federal government has been the subject of recent controversy and litigation. Second, the chapter explains that although the provincial and federal governments have separate constitutionally protected roles in various areas of commercial law, the role is rarely exclusively assumed (or the field occupied) by one level of government. That is, provincial legislation in one area of law impacts what is otherwise federal constitutional jurisdiction, and vice versa.

International Instruments

Nigeria has ratified several international instruments that protect the rights of, and guarantee freedom from discrimination of persons with disabilities (PWD). Despite the above, the country is yet to fully implement the appropriate measures required to achieve the objective of protecting PWD. Successive administrations since the return to civil administration in the country in 1999 have not fulfilled the mandate in the 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria (as amended) dealing with disability rights. While the passing into law in January 2019 of the Discrimination Against Persons with Disabilities (Prohibition) Act 2018 is commendable, it only reflects the pressure on the Federal Government of Nigeria by disability rights advocates and PWD. This article aims to, among others, highlight the plight of PWD in Nigeria, the need to protect their rights and guarantee their freedom from discriminatory practices. To achieve this aim, a review of international and domestic instruments, as well as literature on the subject, is undertaken. The article proposes that the Nigerian government should aim towards inclusivity and accommodation of PWD. For example, instead of merely establishing special schools for PWD, there should be a design to allow for the training of teachers to meet the needs of special children in regular schools.
