This paper addresses the study of the ethics of responsibility in the legislative function of the Chamber of Deputies of the H. Congress of the Union, from the perspective of evaluating the work of federal deputies, and seeks to answer the following question: Is the work of the Federal Deputies in the Chamber of Deputies efficient? The purpose is how to measure and evaluate the performance in the legislative function of the Federal Deputies? and with that, to approach to identify if is the work performed by these public representatives efficient and ethical? The work is integrated in three parts. The first is the concept of the ethics of responsibility and the legislative function. In the second section, the proposal of an indicator to measure legislative efficiency is presented and the case of the federal deputies of the LXI Legislature representing the State of Veracruz of Ignacio de la Llave is analyzed. Finally, the third part presents a proposal for citizen action based on information on legislative efficiency and the need to demand compliance with ethical responsibility in the legislative function. As important conclusions of the evaluation of the legislative efficiency of the federal deputies of the LXI Legislature, it shows at least two important results: i) The legislative effectiveness index (IEL) shows very low levels, both at the plenary level of the Chamber of Deputies, as at the level of the study group of federal deputies representing the State of Veracruz. ii) In both cases, they show a very high legislative lag index. An alternative is the citizen's demand for ethical compliance with responsibility in the legislative function when knowing the evaluation of results, which serves as a reference to identify scenarios of political choice based on results.

The Social

This article aims to discuss the dismantling that the neoliberal proposals have been making in relation to social policies, which the State, in fulfillment of its duty, should provide for the wellbeing of the population, in a democratic way. It was sought to clarify that the public-private relationship is nothing more than a major strategy of capital to create and expand new market niches to overcome the cyclical crisis of capitalism, always presented with new clothes in the mutations that are processed, to reduce the effects of the inevitable in the social asphyxiation that eventually generated great revolutions recorded in its historical process. This article is of bibliographic character, where information was sought in doctrines, periodicals, specialized magazines, official websites and others. Finally, it was a brief diagnosis of the current situation of the Brazilian public education that, from the third way, has been incorporating new forms of action based on the logic of the market.

The Relationship

Chapter 15 summarizes the chapters which addressed the third sphere, the relationship of labor to the political community. It reiterates that since Israel was established, the labor market’s borders have become ever more porous, while the borders of the national (Jewish) political community have remained firm: the Jewish nationalism which guides government policy is as strong as ever. NGOs, drawing on a discourse of human rights, are able to assist some non-citizens but this discourse also resonates with the idea of individual responsibility: the State is no longer willing to support “non-productive” populations, who are now being shoehorned into a labor market which offers few opportunities for meaningful employment, and is saturated by cheaper labor intentionally imported by the State in response to powerful employer lobbies. These trends suggest a partial reorientation of organized labor’s “battlefront”, from a face-off with capital to an appeal to the public and state.

Decisional Authority

In political theory the state has been enjoying a conceptual rebirth even while some of its activities have been receding. The state, however, remains conceptually ambiguous and is thus molded into many different conceptual forms. Three of those forms are discussed in this article: the decision-making state, the production state, and the intermediary state. The first relates to the organization and architecture of decisional authority; the second to the public and distributive goods supplied by the state; and the third to the interconnections between state organization and the organizations of civil society. Although the state lacks unique definition as a concept, its value lies in bringing together the most important macro-level connections of the polity, the society, and the economy that cannot otherwise be adequately analyzed in isolation from one another. In particular, the state provides a focus for the study of statecraft within a given constellation of institutional and interest formations and public cultures. And yet statecraft itself cannot be detached from an analytic focus on the role of incentives, which must be effectively manipulated in order to preserve the fundamental functions of the state.

Abstract This article addresses the issue of realism in relationship to contemporary serial fiction. Drawing on The Bureau (Canal+, 2015–2020), it argues that spy TV series are “realistic” not because they correspond to reality but because of their impact on reality. It begins by giving an overview of the many ways in which “realism,” in the ordinary sense of a resemblance with reality, served as the working framework for The Bureau’s team. It then identifies three distinct types of realisms in the series. The first is a “fictional realism,” namely the ability of The Bureau to conform to the aesthetic and narrative conventions of realistic fictions. The second type of realism, which I qualify as “ordinary,” refers to the possibilities offered by the show’s aesthetics and the enmeshment of The Bureau with viewers’ ordinary experience. The third type of “performative realism” refers to the series’ impact on shared representations and reality. By providing a common language about the secret activities of the state, The Bureau has gone from being a framed version of reality to being one of the defining frameworks through which state secrecy is experienced both individually and collectively, by insiders and the public at large.

Slavery, the State, and Islam is Fagan’s English rendering of Mohammed Ennaji’s2007 work Le Sujet et le Mamelouk: Esclavage, Pouvoir et Religion dansle Monde Arab, a historical study of the economics of power in the relationshipamong slavery, Islam, and monarchy. Ennaji investigates the structure and natureof the “bond of authority” as it manifests itself in servitude between theking and subject, master and slave, God and believers. The bulk of his primaryhistorical material belongs to the first few centuries of Islam. However his intention,as he notes in the introduction, is to also make sense of contemporarymodes of power that govern the scene of authority in the individuals’ proximityto the state and, in some instances, to one another.The opening chapter tells an anecdote of a nineteenth-century Moroccanofficial who was stripped of his title as Local Governor (in Arabic, Qaid), declareddead to the public, and kept as a slave in the sultan’s palace. Ennajichallenges the official narrative and weaves novel threads of the story to showthe degree to which the bond of authority between the sultan and his servantsdepends upon uninterrupted flat obedience.The second chapter questions the issue of slavery during Islam’s earlyyears. The author claims that the new religion made little practical changes tothis institution and, in certain cases, made slaves even more abjectly submissiveto their masters. Ennaji particularly details Islam’s termination of the statusesof sa’b (a sā’ib is a slave who has attained full unconditional freedom) andṭalq (repudiation) and its admission of mawlā (freed slaves must remain loyalto their ex-master). He also elaborates on the non-provision of part of the publicfunds to free more slaves, as well as the practice of depriving freed slaves ofthe spoils of war and discouraging people from marrying them.In the third chapter, Ennaji undertakes the king-subject relation in lightof the notion of servitude. He probes the sociolinguistic roots of several conceptualizations,including ‘ibādah, ra’īyah, and ṭā‘ah (translated successivelyas adoration, people, and obedience). He also examines the semiotics of variousexpressions of servitude and presents a prolonged discussion of the differentuses of the hand in this context. Ennaji contends that the transition toIslam barely changed anything in the structure of authority and the masterslaverelationship. As he puts it, with the advent of Islam there was “a reorganizationof the authoritarian space that reshuffled the division of powerbetween the king and the divine authority” (p. 82). This redistribution of poweris elaborated in the fourth chapter, where the author draws on concepts used ...

The purpose of national education is to develop the potential of learners to become human beings who believe and cautious to God Almighty, have noble character, healthy, knowledgeable, capable, creative, independent, and become citizens of a democratic and responsible. In fact, although the number of educated people is increasing, there is still a lot of criminality, immorality, violation of law and other issues as if eliminating the identity of a nation that berpencasila. This is where the importance of morals, the role of morals in life is often beyond the role of science, for science without morality encourages people to the kebiadapan ". So it becomes a necessity for all educators, the public as well as the state to focus on matters of morality, by realizing that children's time is the right time to instill morals. An effective method is needed to instill morals to the children, and in this case we are referring to Abdullah Nasih Ulwan who has made the formula for the education of morals for children in accordance with the rules of the current education. Departing from the background mentioned above, In order for research to have direction, base and meaning, it is necessary writer to formulate the purpose of this research, namely: first, to know urgency of moral education in children according to Abdullah Nasih Ulwan, second to know the method and application of moral education on according to Abdullah Nasih Ulwan, the third to know its relevance to the current conditions.

The used method is a normative legal research with secondary data sources through primary legal materials, secondary and tertiary. The results show that leasing the land that the object is a public land constitutes an action against the law, because the state is in fact not the owner of the land. The state only has the right to control the public land and the only the owner has the right to lease the land. Therefore, there is a smuggling law in case of leasing the public land through enacting the regional regulations that contain the permit to use the public land, that the third parties can use public land but the third party must pay a sum of money.</em>

This text presents partial data from our master's research whose objective is to map the academic productions, since 1998, on the partnerships established between the public and private sectors in the field of pre-school education, specifically in the nursery, where children from 0 to 3 years. We will then present the results of a bibliographic survey of studies whose theme is the partnership between the public and private sectors, published in periodicals in the area of education. The results show that this practice has become commonplace in cities in Brazil, since the municipalities run counter to the fiscal responsibility law, and can not exceed the public spending ceiling. We conclude that it has been a plausible solution for municipalities. However, the transfer of resources to the third sector ends up generating very high expenses for the public coffers.

Symbolic construction of the state identity is analysed, along with the symbolic politics of the state toward the past. The great systemic change is conceived as a symbolic transformation where the growth of semiotic behaviour is clearly noticeable. The analysis deals with the changes in the public holidays calendar in Poland: the communist symbolic strategies, symbolic politics of the Solidarity movement and the anti-politics of symbolization in the third Republic of Poland. It discusses problems of the symbolic control of historicity.
