The city of Makassar, once named Ujung Pandang, in South Sulawesi, underwent tremendous transformation in the 20th century. This transformation significantly changed the image of the city from a cosmopolitan town to a provincial and "ethnic" city. This article shows that the changes of the city's image did not happen by itself. There were changing structural conditions, namely demographic and political conditions, which allowed the changes to happen.Since early 20th century the population of the city has grown exponentially. First, in-migrants from the surrounding regions in the eastern part of Indonesia flocked into the city until early 1950s. Second, due to the rebellion and unrest in the countryside of South Sulawesi since 1950 inmigrants, mostly refugees, from Bugis-speaking areas in even larger number swarmed Makassar. Parallel with the demographical changes, the political scene in the city (and the province) was increasingly dominated by politicians and bureaucrats of South-Sulawesi origins. The Permesta rebellion in late-1950s triggered the departure of mostly non-South Sulawesi politicians away from the region leaving the political stage fully in the hands of local politicians. The "ethnic-ization" of the city was made possible by these demographical and political changes.

O artigo analisa a política de autonomia do Banco Central praticada no primeiro mandato do governo Lula. A análise justifica-se pela importância da instituição na formulação de políticas econômicas no governo, e pela necessidade de legitimação da instituição pelos empresários financeiros, em especial pelos bancos. Pretendese observar o posicionamento dos banqueiros nesse "jogo de barganha" que se estabelece no sistema bancário brasileiro. As fontes serão as manifestações de banqueiros na grande imprensa escrita, especificamente nos jornais "Folha de São Paulo" e "Valor Econômico". Dois temas serão discutidos no artigo: Henrique Meirelles como presidente do Banco Central; e a reformulação do artigo 192 da Constituição de 1988. Percebe-se que a pauta reivindicativa dos banqueiros não foi integralmente cumprida (institucionalização da autonomia), mas isso não implicou em uma crítica à política governamental.

This paper addresses the relations between migrants, mobility, tactics, negotiation, and the contemporary definition of borders in the aftermath of 9/11.The empirical focus of this paper is how Brazilians from Alto Paranaiba journey through airports located in the Schengen area and in the British territory to London. As a main research orientation, I use the notion of journey as approached by mobility studies, where actions and skills remain an important link between the wayfarer and the social space in which s/he moves through, the embodied practice to how we grasp the world. Migrants deal and struggle against border regime, but they are not powerless social actors. They rather produce creative resistance to reinvent their journey through the surveillance apparatus, which manage and delimit places with targets and threats. In this process, I explore the notion of border crossing movement as a tactical mobility developed by migrants to overcome the border control imposed by governments in airports. The article was drawn through fieldwork conducted initially in London, between 2009 and 2013, and afterwards in Alto Paranaiba, during 2013. The ethnographic study consisted in semi-structured interviews, participant observation through snowball technique, which enabled me to access a considerable number of participants in these two regions explored. The argument that I develop is that migrants as social actors are part important in the dialogue produced between border crossing and border reinforcement.

Resumo:Este artigo tem por objetivo apresentar dezoito textos sobre Nietzsche publicados na imprensa brasileira no período de 1893 a 1945. Tais trabalhos mostram que dois fatores da cultura brasileira desse período orientam a leitura da obra do filósofo: a renovação estético-cultural e a reação político-religiosa. Os textos transcritos na sequência seguem a ordem cronológica de suas publicações.

This article examines the ways in which the processes of collecting, ordering and governing were imbricated both in the metropole and in the colony. Focused on the ethnographic missions carried out by the Musée d'Ethnographie du Trocadéro(MET) and by the École Française d'Extrême Orient from 1900 to the 1930s, the paper explores the network of local collectors, the methodological protocols and standards, the collecting practices, and how objects were gathered in the field for displays at the MET in Paris and at the forthcoming ethnological museum at Dalat in French Indochina (what is now Vietnam). The article argues that the circulation of objects, and the information related to those objects, conceives both the metropole and the colony as sites for the production of ethnological knowledge. It also seeks to demonstrate that collecting practices entailed distinct government effects both in metropolitan France and in colonial Indochina.

MIST2015 for Modelling Innovation Sustainability and Technologies, this year held in Oeiras ‐ Cascais region. Academia, scholars, business and industrial actors, government as well as nongovernmental organisations (NGOs), and civil participants from over 20 countries have expressed their interest in participating at the MIST Conference. The scientific programme was carefully designed and many distinguished presenters have submitted their contributions to present to discuss interesting achievements and effective recommendations for modelling innovation and sustainability policies through modern technologies. Highly competent scientists from four different European countries will provide a state‐of‐art and overview of fundamental and applied aspects of spatial economics, innovation ecosystems, regional development, and technologies. The Conference is open to educators, students, industry and business actors, NGO's, policy‐makers and civil participants, to get informed by experts in about a series of innovative measures for regional development. Many of us will tackle issues that relate to five different areas (Innovation Economics and Policy Perspectives, Environmental, Energetic and Economic Sustainability, Innovation Management & Entrepreneurship, Advanced Tourism Economics and Management Information Systems). I would like to express my sincere thanks to Mário Abreu, Paulo Varão and Carlos Rangel, and to all members of the organizing committee and reviewers who helped to organise this great event. This Organising Committee is sure that all presentations, discussions and interventions will generate innovative ideas to tackle "Strategies and Policies for Modelling Innovation" more efficiently and effectively.

This paper traces the ways in which rice, as a global commodity, has been produced and sold in various regions in Southeast Asia from the colonial era to the present days. This paper employs a food regime analysis first introduced by Harriet Friedmann (1982) and later developed together with Philip McMichael (1989) to look at the global political economy of rice. In this paper, it will be shown how various colonial and post colonial states in Southeast Asia (including Thailand who was never formally colonized) through their policies have practically divided the region where Burma (now Myanmar), Thailand and Vietnam in the mainland have become major rice producer and exporter, while Indonesia, Malaya (now Malaysia), and the Philippines in the archipelagic Southeast Asia have become major rice importers although at the same time producers and exporters of other agro-commodities (coffee, sugar, rubber).Keywords: rice history, food regime, Southeast Asia Artikel ini menelusuri cara di mana padi sebagai komoditas dunia diproduksi dan dijual di beberapa daerah di Asia Tenggara mulai zaman kolonial sampai sekarang. Artikel ini menggunakan analisis "food regime" yang pertama kali diperkenalkan oleh Harrier Friedman (1982) dan kemudian dikembangkan bersama oleh Philip (1989) untuk mengetahui politik ekonomi global dari padi. Dalam artikel ini, akan dilihat mengenai bagaimana negara kolonial dan pasca-kolonial yanb berbeda di Asia Tenggara (termasuk Thailand yang tidak pernah dijajah sebelumnya) melalui kebiakannya, yang hampir membagi wilayahnya, di mana Burma (Myanmar), Thailand, dan Vietnam telah menjadi produsen dan eksportir utama terbesar, sedangkan Indonesia dan Malaya (Malaysia) dan Filipina di Asia Tenggara telah menjadi produsen dan eksportir komoditas pertanian lain (kopi, gula, karet) dalam waktu yang bersamaan.Kata kunci: sejarah beras, food regime, Asia Tenggara.

Os textos transcritos na sequência seguem a ordem cronológica de suas publicações. Alguns deles tematizam o contexto brasileiro, outros procuram entender a construção do pensamento do filósofo, outros ainda tratam de suas inclinações culturais pela França ou de suas desconfianças ideológicas pela Alemanha.

This article seeks to explain how economic and local political structures shaped the ways in which public officials articulated ideas of race and labor in the nineteenth century Brazil. Employing a comparative historical method, this work advances the literature in two ways. First, it suggests that what we have come to view as a positive valuation of blackness has roots in the economic development prior to the centralized nation-building processes. Second, the findings of this study point to the effects of intra-national factors, such as economic structures and patterns of labor incorporation, in shaping how regional public officials articulated notions of "race," labor, and progress.
