[Call for sessions] WINIR Conference on "Institutions & Inclusive Societies: Global & Comparative Perspectives", Lund University, Sweden, 19-22 Sept 2019


CALL FOR SESSIONS


The rise of new growth poles and the emergence of new global institutional dynamics are challenging the old divide between the developed and developing world. Although the majority of the world population has experienced improved living standards, there seems to be rising popular discontent with globalization as economic inequalities between and within nations are rising across the world.

As many now question whether globalization is compatible with inclusive societies, we must ask what lessons may be drawn from previous waves of globalization. What can be learned from the institutional changes involved in terms of both economic development and the distribution of the effects of globalization on the standards of living and capabilities of people? We must also ask if inclusive institutional strategies such as a renewed role of the welfare state can play an active role in contemporary societies. 

Organised in collaboration with Lund University’s Department of Economic History in Lund, Sweden, the Sixth WINIR Conference will explore these and other related issues. Contributions from any discipline, theoretical approach or methodology that address the challenges and dynamics of the economic, political, legal and social institutions of our time are welcome.

Ciência e Tecnologia aprova reforço de 600 milhões de reais ao Orçamento do próximo ano

19/10/2018
A Comissão de Ciência e Tecnologia da Câmara dos Deputados aprovou, em reunião nesta quarta-feira (17), quatro emendas no valor total de R$ 600 milhões para reforço de dotações no Orçamento de 2019 (PLN 27/18). Os projetos contemplam o programa espacial brasileiro, inclusão digital,  fomento à Pesquisa e Desenvolvimento no programa Brasil 2021 e projetos de pesquisa científica na Antártica.
A primeira emenda destina recursos de R$ 200 milhões ao programa de inclusão digital. A ideia, segundo o deputado André Figueiredo (PDT-CE), é propiciar ao serviço público, às escolas públicas e à população em geral, o acesso à banda larga. "É um conceito mundial que a cada ano vai crescendo. Bem como intensificar o nosso plano nacional de IoT (Internet das Coisas)", disse.
O segundo projeto estratégico contemplado, também com recursos de R$ 200 milhões, é o que fomenta o desenvolvimento de satélites pelo País. Outros R$ 100 milhões constam na emenda que destina recursos para a promoção da Pesquisa, do Desenvolvimento e da Inovação em Tecnologias Digitais, Componentes e Dispositivos Eletrônicos e Gestão das Obrigações de Contrapartida Relacionadas a Incentivos Fiscais, por meio do Programa 2021, que é desenvolvido na região amazônica. A quarta emenda destina recursos de R$ 100 milhões para o apoio à pesquisa na Antártica.
Essas emendas serão analisadas agora pela Comissão Mista de Orçamento. No processo orçamentário, existem as emendas de comissão, as individuais e as de bancadas estaduais. A Comissão de Ciência e Tecnologia também aprovou a realização de uma audiência pública para discutir a crise nas universidades federais.

Brasil cai em ranking de competitividade mundial

Genebra – O próximo presidente da República assume um país pouco competitivo e avaliado como tendo a pior carga de regulações do setor público em todo o mundo. O resultado desse cenário foi, uma vez mais, a queda do Brasil no ranking internacional de competitividade, afetada ainda pela falta de abertura da economia nacional, um mercado laboral pouco flexível, crime e falta de qualidade na educação.

A classificação foi divulgada pelo Fórum Econômico Mundial, que, neste ano, apresentou o Brasil na 72ª posição. No ano passado, a economia brasileira era a 69ª mais competitiva do mundo.

Call for Submissions - ISPIM Florence


Deadline: 25 January 2019

Florence is considered to be the cradle of the Italian Renaissance and has a reputation as one of the most beautiful, creative and innovative cities in the world. Arts, crafts, buildings and methodologies were developed by innovators such as Dante, Giotto, Brunelleschi, Verrocchio and Da Vinci. And it is to the genius of Da Vinci, and his timeless innovations and inventions, that this ISPIM Conference is dedicated during this, the 500th year since his death. 

Over the centuries Florence and its surroundings have gained a reputation in fashion, food & wine, rail, the life sciences, nautical industries, design, oil & gas and tourism. Local companies successfully balance globalization and glocalization, both surviving and often thriving on the global market. The common ground for this bright and fecund innovative environmental crucible is that local innovation players actively engage within the innovation ecosystem, cooperating and sharing their different competences in a quadruple helix of innovation. And of course, attending the 2019 ISPIM Innovation Conference!
