A petição inicial é um dos componentes mais importantes de um processo civil, de modo que a automatização da análise desses documentos pode diminuir o tempo necessário para que se cumpra a fase postulatória. O corpo de qualificação das partes, por sua vez, é a seção nesse documento onde são expostas as informações a respeito das entidades envolvidas no processo. Este artigo propõe o uso de técnicas de extração de entidades nomeadas no problema de identificação e extração de informações em petições iniciais. Para tal, foi produzida uma base de dados composta por corpos de qualificação das partes de petições iniciais extraídas de processos advindos de tribunais brasileiros. Foram treinados, avaliados e comparados sete modelos BiLSTM-CRF com combinações distintas de representações vetoriais de palavras, a fim de se investigar seus efeitos na performance de um algoritmo com essa arquitetura e, dessa forma, aprimorar o reconhecimento de entidades jurídicas em textos legais. Ao contrário de outros trabalhos baseados em BiLSTM-CRF para tarefas de NER no domínio jurídico, esta pesquisa dá ênfase não às arquiteturas empregadas, mas sim aos métodos de representação de texto usados. Os experimentos executados com o corpus desenvolvido mostram que o empilhamento de incorporações de caracteres, palavras e pooled FLAIR embeddings é a combinação preferível para extrair-se o melhor desempenho possível de modelos híbridos BiLSTM-CRF.

This article is dedicated to one of the most interesting aspects of International Procedural Law – litigation with the participation of foreign persons. Authors focused on a comparative analysis of Russian and Belarus legislation concerning the regulation of international procedural relations. Article includes two parts: the first one considers international jurisdiction of Russian arbitrazh courts and Belarus economic courts on commercial matters; the second one examines the recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments in commercial matters on the territory of Russia and Belarus. Authors deeply scrutinized a wide range of legal documents including domestic legislation, bilateral and multilateral international treaties of regional character in order to show the convergences and divergences in Russian and Belarus procedural law concerning participation of foreign persons in international commercial litigation

Although the literature contains reports of very high accuracy figures for the recognition of named entities in text, there are still some named entity phenomena that remain problematic for existing text processing systems. One of these is the ambiguity of conjunctions in candidate named entity strings, an all-too-prevalent problem in corporate and legal documents. In this paper, we distinguish four uses of the conjunction in these strings, and explore the use of a supervised machine learning approach to conjunction disambiguation trained on a very limited set of ‘name internal’ features that avoids the need for expensive lexical or semantic resources. We achieve 84% correctly classified examples using k-fold evaluation on a data set of 600 instances. We argue that further improvements are likely to require the use of wider domain knowledge and name external features.

Este artigo tem como objetivo analisar comparativamente o signo linguístico, tendo em vista duas perspectivas: de um lado, a de Ferdinand de Saussure, do outro, a de Émile Benveniste. Trata-se de um artigo de revisão de literatura a partir de fontes da historiografia linguística. A base teórica centra-se no exame de duas obras: Curso de Linguística Geral, de Saussure (2016) e Problemas de Linguística Geral, de Benveniste (1976). Além dessas, outras fontes foram consultadas, entre as quais, destacam-se: Bakhtin (2009), Fiorin (2002) e Câmara Jr. (2011). Estes estudos discutem a noção do que é o signo linguístico, bem como abordam os problemas entorno desse conceito. Neste artigo, tentou-se extrair dessas fontes a possibilidade de se chegar a uma conclusão do que de fato é o signo, observando a dualidade nas concepções propostas pelos dois pensadores. Os resultados deste estudo apontam que o signo é a entidade abstrata que está no cerne do sistema e por tal razão, torna-se o elemento que constitui a própria estrutura. A língua, como objeto de estudo dessa nova ciência constituída no início do século XX, apresenta fatores que necessitam de uma interpelação acentuada sobre os aspectos que condicionam o seu uso. Dentre esses pontos, pode-se destacar o signo linguístico e suas ramificações que a tornam complexas, tanto na sua estrutura, quanto na sua utilização.

Resumo São analisados os obstáculos à formulação de políticas nacionais de arquivos no Brasil e na Espanha. O método comparativo é utilizado como recurso, considerando-se suas possibilidades para análises comparadas de políticas públicas de informação em níveis nacionais. Além de se avaliar o alcance das políticas executadas, mostram-se também relevantes os elementos que impedem a formulação de políticas arquivísticas. A produção de conhecimento sobre o tema mostra-se fundamental para a emergência de novas discussões no espaço acadêmico e, se possível, na configuração de uma agenda política com diversos atores sociais.Palavras-chave políticas nacionais de arquivos; políticas públicas de informação; análise comparada; arquivos públicos; sistemas de arquivosAbstract In this study we investigate the obstacles to the formulation of national archival policies in Brazil and Spain. The comparative method is used as a resource for a comparative analysis of information public policies at the national levels. It is important to evaluate public policies already implemented, but also to analyze the obstacles to archival policy formulation. The production of knowledge about archival policies is crucial for further discussion in the academic sphere and, if possible, to build a political agenda with various social actors.Keywords national archival policies; information public policies; comparative analysis; public archives; archival systems

The article is devoted to the study of the main forms of interaction between Torgsin (trade with foreigners) trading institutions and the population of Ivanovo Industrial Region in 1933–1935. The question of the evolution of Torgsin's own money issued to customers in exchange for surrendered values was investigated. The stages of replacement of trade orders with commodity books are indicated. Data on prices for basic food and industrial goods in Torgsin stores are presented, the dynamics of sales, factors that influenced the policy of lowering and raising prices. Legal documents were considered that contributed to improving the supply of goods to the population, as well as the issue of the ratio of Torgsin sales prices and Soviet industry selling prices. An assortment of domestic and imported goods is presented. Special attention is paid to the prices of collective farm markets of the largest towns of Ivanovo Industrial Region. The ratio of market and official rates of the gold and Soviet rouble was considered. The study allowed to consider the advantages and disadvantages in Torgsin's work with the population of the region. The direction of consumer demand has been studied. Based on a comparative analysis of Torgsin prices and the free market of the region, an idea of the level of accessibility of various groups of goods for buyers is made.

ResumoEste trabalho foi motivado pela expectativa de diagnosticar, a partir dos documentos vigentes, a atual forma de organização e de funcionamento do Conselho de Classe no IFMT- campus Cuiabá Cel. Octayde Jorge da Silva. Foi usada uma abordagem qualitativa com característica exploratória, por meio da Técnica da Documentação Indireta: pesquisa bibliográfica e pesquisa documental. Para tanto, buscou-se um embasamento teórico por meio de bibliografias referentes ao Conselho de Classe e em documentos legais como: a LDB/96; o Projeto Pedagógico Institucional do IFMT/2019 e a Organização Didática do IFMT/2014. Com base nos documentos legais se concluiu que o Conselho de Classe deve ser instituído nas escolas de forma participativa e colegiada, e que essa instância possui uma função importante no tocante ao acompanhamento do processo de ensino e aprendizagem. Todavia, não foram encontrados, no âmbito da Instituição, documentos com orientações para a prática da organização e do funcionamento do Conselho de Classe. Assim, identificou-se a necessidade de se construírem tais instrumentos, com vistas a ações mais efetivas para a execução, o acompanhamento e a avaliação do processo pedagógico nos cursos Técnicos Integrados ao Ensino Médio. Palavras-chave: Projeto Pedagógico Institucional. Organização Didática. Ensino-Aprendizagem. Avaliação Escolar. Ensino Médio Integrado. AbstractThis work was motivated by the expectation of diagnosing, based on the current documents, the current form of organization and functioning of the Class Council at the IFMT-campus Cuiabá Cel. Octayde Jorge da Silva. A qualitative approach with an exploratory characteristic was used, through the Indirect Documentation Technique: bibliographic research and documentary research. To this end, a theoretical basis was sought through bibliographies regarding the Class Council and in legal documents such as: LDB / 96; the Institutional Pedagogical Project of IFMT / 2019 and the Didactic Organization of IFMT / 2014. Based on the legal documents, it was concluded that the Class Council should be instituted in schools in a participatory and collegial way, and that this instance has an important role regarding the teaching-learning process monitoring. However, no documents were found, within the institution, with guidelines for the organization practice and the Class Council functioning. Thus, the need to build such instruments was identified, with a view to more effective actions for the execution, monitoring and evaluation of the pedagogical process in the Technical courses integrated to High School. Keywords: Institutional Pedagogical Project. Didactic Organization. Teaching-Learning. School Evaluation. Integrated High School.

Abstract: As a news story topic, climate change has potential narrative elements that include the oil industry and the earth’s climatic balance. With the world’s leading scientists now insisting that the story should be shifting from whether climate change is happening to “What are we going to do about it?” this article offers a critical comparative analysis of how American, Canadian, and international newspapers are framing this key issue. Based on Herman and Chomsky’s (1988) media propaganda model, the findings indicate that while newspapers in the United States might be avoiding the issue, all three “regions” show a hesitancy to frame climate change with either extreme weather consequences or oil reduction solutions.Résumé: Comme sujet d’actualité, le changement climatique a des éléments arratifs attirants, y compris l’industrie pétrolière et l’équilibre climatique de la planète. Maintenant que les savants chefs de file du monde entier, au lieu de se demander si le changement climatique existe vraiment, insistent plutôt qu’il faut mettre l’accent sur ce qu’on va faire à son sujet, cet article offre une analyse comparative critique de la manière dont les quotidiens américains, canadiens et internationaux traitent de ce sujet vital. Cette analyse, qui se fonde sur le modèle de propagande de Herman et Chomsky (1988), indique que les journaux américains évitent de traiter de la question et que les trois « régions » susmentionnées hésitent encore à associer des conséquences extrêmes au changement climatique ou à recommander une réduction dans la consommation du pétrole.
