The rural settlements are managed through institutional organizations and established through laws, statute, projects, and forming an Ideal Brazil. Primarily, five elementary aspects need support from the government to develop socio-economically from those rural segments: Health service, school education, traffic conditions, qualification courses, and release of subsidies. On the other hand, there is a real Brazil lived by families farmers that face daily difficulties and the bureaucratic barriers. Research made by the ethnographic method, data collected by the technique of participant observation with 70 settlers. Records in a field diary analyzed the five aspects mentioned with the quantitative and qualitative result. This duality of views between Ideal Brazil and Real Brazil evidenced two Brazils "way Brazilian", demonstrating when theory and practice do not harmonize they compromise the socioeconomic aspects of rural settlements in your essence. Which is family agriculture. The INCRA represents the diagram of the power exerted upon the settlers, while those explore “Brazilian way" [jeitinho brasiliero] making an antagonistic duality instead of complementary. Assentamentos Rurais e Dois Brasis Bem Brasileiros Os assentamentos rurais são geridos por órgãos institucionais, com aspectos fiscalizadores, norteadores, financeiros, ofertando terras e capacitações, disponibilizando subsídios, coordenando instruções normativas através de leis, decretos, projetos, formando o Brasil Ideal. Por outro viés, há o Brasil Real, no seu cotidiano, analisando em cinco aspectos elementares: saúde pública, educação escolar, condições de trafegabilidade, cursos capacitatórios, liberação de subsídios. Pesquisa pelo método etnográfico, coleta de dados pela técnica da observação participante, registros em Diário de Campo, analisados nos aspectos quanti e qualitativos. Essa dualidade de olhares evidenciou dois brasis bem brasileiros, demonstrando que quando teoria e prática não se harmonizam, comprometem os aspectos socioeconômicos dos assentamentos rurais em sua essência, que é a agricultura familiar. O INCRA representa o diagrama do poder exercido sobre os assentados, enquanto esses se utilizam de “jeitinho brasileiro”, formando uma dualidade antagônica, ao invés de complementares.

<div><i>Background</i>: the creative capacities and the knowledge of the employees are components of the intellectual capital of the company; hence, their training is a key activity to achieve the objectives and business growth. <i>Objective</i>: To understand the meaning of learning in the hospital from the experiences of its participants through the inquiry of meanings. <i>Method</i>: Qualitative design with an ethnographic approach, which forms part of a wider research, on organizational culture; carried out mainly in 2 public hospitals of the Community of Madrid. The data has been collected for thirteen months. A total of 23 in-depth interviews and 69 field sessions have been conducted through the participant observation technique. <i>Results</i>: the worker and the student learn from what they see and hear. The great hospital offers an unregulated education, dependent on the professional, emphasizing that they learn everything. Some transmit the best and others, even the humiliating ones, use them for dirty jobs, focusing on the task and nullifying the possibility of thinking. They show a reluctant attitude to teach the newcomer, even if they do, they do not have to oppose their practice. In short, a learning in the variability, which produces a rupture between theory and practice; staying with what most convinces them, including negligence, which affects the patient's safety. In the small hospital, it is a teaching based on a practice based on scientific evidence and personalized attention, on knowing the other. Clearly taught from the reception, to treat with caring patience and co-responsibility in the care. The protagonists of both scenarios agree that teaching and helping new people establish lasting and important personal relationships to feel happy and want to be in that service or hospital. <i>Conclusion</i>: There are substantial differences related to the size of the center, as to what and how the student and the novel professional are formed. At the same time that the meaning of value that these health organizations transmit to their workers is inferred through the training, one orienting to the task and the other to the person, either patient, professional or pupil and therefore seeking the common benefit.</div>

Following the council and municipal elections of 2003 in Benin, the government engaged on a decentralization policy. In the drinking water sector, the reform has enhanced the redefining of the roles and responsibilities of different agents and institutions. Based on this observation, a qualitative study has been undertaken to analyze and describe the new process of public drinking water supply. This research collected data from sixty respondents. It involved the use of investigative techniques such as documentation, participant observation and interviewing. According to the study, certain skills and resources had been transferred and are administered by the council of Ouinhi, as well as the other councils of Benin. However, the resources are not often delivered on time. As a result, the municipality is faced with several financial, technical, organizational and material drawbacks.

This paper attempts to locate the genesis of free education in Nigeria and to trace its development. Besides, a philosophical critique of the theory and practice of free education in the country is also attempted with the facts and fallacies highlighted. The paper is a descriptive study and applies philosophical analysis. In the concluding part, it is suggested among other things that government at all levels in Nigeria should state more clearly their stance on free education,  publicize this, together with  the most important aspects of the policy statements on free education so that the citizenry can know the limit of their expectation from the government.

Character education is a vital instrument in determining the progress of a nation. Therefore the government needs to build educational institutions in order to produce good human resources that are ready to oversee and deliver the nation at a progressive level. It’s just that in reality, national education is not in line with the ideals of national education because the output is not in tune with moral values on the one hand and the potential for individuals to compete in world intellectual order on the other hand. Therefore, as a solution to these problems is the need for the applicationof character education from an early age.

The literature annotated here is from a subset of literature in cultural anthropology that deals with ethnographic fieldwork: the basic research exercise of cultural immersion. This bibliography is meant to offer a representative sample of literature in anthropology that deals with the fieldwork experiences of researchers. Cultural anthropology is devoted to the concept of “discovering the other.” Its method of inquiry is often referred to as participant/observation: the researcher lives the culture while observing it. Since so much of the fieldwork experience deals with personal adjustments to living in different cultures, the literature is charged with the problems of adjustment and understanding so common to study abroad experiences. This literature is particularly relevant to those interested in cross-cultural learning and issues in cultural adjustment.

Much is written about how criminal suspects, defendants, and undercover targets use ambiguous language in their interactions with police, prosecutors, and undercover agents. This book examines the other side of the coin, describing fifteen criminal investigations demonstrating how police, prosecutors, undercover agents, and complainants use deceptive ambiguity with their subjects, which leads to misrepresentations of the speech events, schemas, agendas, speech acts, lexicon, and grammar. These misrepresentations affect the perceptions of judges and juries about the subjects’ motives, predispositions, intentions, and voluntariness. Deception is commonly considered intentional while ambiguity is often excused as unintentional performance errors. Although perhaps overreliance on Grice’s maxim of sincerity leads some to believe this, interactions of suspects, defendants, and targets with representatives of law are adversarial, non-cooperative events that enable participants to ignore or violate the cooperative principle. One effective way the government does this is to use ambiguity deceptively. Later listeners to the recordings of such conversations may not recognize this ambiguity and react in ways that the subjects may not have intended. Deceptive ambiguity is clearly intentional in undercover operations and the case examples illustrate that the practice also is alive and well in police interviews and prosecutorial questioning. The book concludes with a summary of how the deceptive ambiguity used by representatives of the government affected the perception of the subjects’ predisposition, intentionality and voluntariness, followed by a comparison of the relative frequency of deceptive ambiguity used by the government in its representations of speech events, schemas, agendas, speech acts, lexicon, and grammar.

Native American dancers in the 1890s rebelling against the U.S. government’s failure to uphold treaties protecting land rights and rations were accused of fomenting a dancing ‘craze’. Their dancing—which hoped for a renewal of Native life—was subject to intense government scrutiny and panic. The government anthropologist James Mooney, in participant observation and fieldwork, described it as a religious ecstasy like St. Vitus’s dance. The Ghost Dance movement escalated with the proliferation of reports, telegraphs, and letters circulating via Washington, DC. Although romantically described as ‘geognosic’—nearly mineral—ancestors of the whites, Native rebels in the Plains were told to stop dancing so they could work and thus modernize; their dancing was deemed excessive, wasteful, and unproductive. The government’s belligerently declared state of exception—effectively cultural war—was countered by one that they performed ecstatically. ‘Wasted’ energy, dancers maintained, trumped dollarization—the hollow ‘use value’ of capitalist biopower.

During the civil war, Liberia’s forestry sector rose to prominence as Charles Taylor traded timber for arms. When the war ended, the UN’s timber sanctions remained in effect, reinforced by the Forestry Development Authority’s (FDA) domestic ban on logging. As Liberians waited for UN timber sanctions to be lifted, a burgeoning domestic timber market developed. This demand was met by artisanal loggers, more commonly referred to as pit sawyers. Out of this illicit economy emerged the Nezoun Group to provide local dispute resolution between the FDA’s tax collectors and ex-combatant pit sawyers. The Nezoun Group posed a dilemma for the government. On the one hand, the regulatory efforts of the Nezoun Group helped the FDA to tax an activity that it had banned. On the other hand, the state’s inability to contain the operations of the Nezoun Group—in open contravention of Liberian laws—highlighted the government’s capacity problems.
