Brazil stands as the largest exporter of beef, and Goiás stands out as the second largest exporter state, third in beef production and quarter in effective herd, according to 2008 data (SEPIN, 2009a). Because of the importance of this activity to the State economy and the currency and relevance of the theme, we chose to comparatively analyze the competitiveness of agro-industrial exporting chains of beef in the State of Goiás. We started from the assumption that export food chains (formed from the slaughtering units) of beef in Goiás present settings, actors, resources and different transactions, which facilitates the design of differentiated chains. In addition, we started with the assumption that the slaughterhouses are the dynamizing actors and that the beef exporting chains in Goiás realize competitive advantages. We analyzed the areas of production (beef cattle), slaughter and processing (refrigerators), and distribution and consumption. Competitive analysis has been developed by drivers and sub-factors of competitiveness, which included 20 drivers and 146 sub-factors, considering the three segments. Their assessment was conducted from the perspective of slaughter and processing segment (refrigerators). In addition, we used secondary data and interviews with key actors. Through the data collected...

The aim of this study is to understand how were the territorial occupation of agribusiness in Goiás and the participation of state tax incentives in this process. Therefore, it was adopted as a hypothesis that, the dynamic agribusiness developed in a heterogeneous formation, both in the occupation of the agroindustrial complex, as in the granting of state tax incentives. To achieve the proposed objective, data from the Municipal Agricultural Research (PAM) and the Agricultural Census for 1970 until 2006, from the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE) were used to understand the phenomenon of farming dynamics in Goiás, and data from Sefaz-GO to understand state tax incentives as well. After the processing of such data in tables, maps were built in the Arcviews 10 program which had as their goal show the spatialization of the production on the territorial space of Goiás. What we realized was that, in the case of the Midwest, since the decade of 70, the state (Federal Government) has taken a strong role, creating the attractive access to this area of the agricultural frontier, fostering changes in the technological base. This action of the Federal Government created conditions incurred in the frontier region preview...

Le principal objectif de cette thèse est d’analyser le processus de construction de la lèpre dans l’Etat de Goiás, au Brésil. Pour ce faire, on a cherché, par l’analyse des discours médicaux et politiques produits pendant la période comprise entre 1830 et 1962, à observer les transformations de la façon de penser et d’exprimer le problème, et les éléments relatifs au pouvoir et au savoir qui construisent la maladie comme problème médico-politique. Les principaux documents utilisés dans cette analyse se composent de rapports médicaux, de revues médicales de Goiás, de rapports gouvernementaux des Provinces/Etats, et de journaux locaux. L’hypothèse défendue est que la manière de concevoir la maladie analysée s’est transformée à Goiás dans les années 1920. La morphée, qui était vue, au XIXe siècle, comme possiblement curable et dont les malades coexistaient avec les sains dans les espaces urbains, a donné place à la lèpre, maladie contagieuse qui se propage sur les espaces pauvres et “sans civilisation” de l’Etat, et qui exigeait que des actions soient entreprises pour la contenir. Cette transformation a lieu dans un contexte de croissance de l’intérêt porté à l’espace de l’intérieur du Brésil et à un moment de dispute discursive au sujet du transfert de la capitale fédérale de Rio de Janeiro à Goiás. Les discours construits autour de cette question présentaient un espace et une population caractérisés par la maladie et par l’absence du pouvoir public. Ainsi...

The purpose of this study is to understand to what extent the phenomenon of structural heterogeneity existing in Goiás industrial economy has affected the structure of earnings and employment in the state of Goiás in the interregnum from 2000 to 2010 . The hypothesis put forward is that, in Goiás, the process of growth of industrial production and the number of companies has developed so as to increase productivity gap and labor income among different segments of the manufacturing industry in the period 2000-2010. To perform the proposed work goal, we used the technical resources of literature and documents and adopted the descriptive analytical method. The first analysis is a comparison between the structure of the transformation of Goiás and São Paulo industry and the results indicated a reduction in structural heterogeneity, both indicators of labor productivity as in the structure of earnings and employment. The second test checks the industrial conformation as the level of technology embodied in the production process. At this point, the segments of low technological intensity remained the largest share of the value added by the manufacturing industry, indicating that driving the dynamic axis of Goiás economy facing the external sector...

The city of Goiás, the old Vila Boa, was one of the first urban center of the Brazilian midwest, due to gold mining exploration in the eighteenth century and also the capital of Goiás state until 1937. It is an example of Portuguese occupation in the Brazilian backlands, its vernacular architecture of baroque inspiration it is today globally recognized by the title of Cultural Heritage of Humanity by Unesco in 2001. The international importance of its historical collection made it dynamic with the increase in tourism activity.

The research presented here - "Valparaíso de Goiás-GO: the place of identity, the identities of the place - 1995/2010" - aims to understand the identity and symbolic relations between the residents of Valparaiso de Goiás and the Federal District. More: expresses the uniqueness of a city whose residents, in a condition of "ubiquity", aims to establish residence in the Federal District. Valparaiso de Goiás has its genesis in the migratory movement to the construction of Brasilia. The capital of the country continues to attract people that want to live there, but cannot settle. The fate of these people is the cities of Brasilia‟s Metropolitan Area - BMA, including Valparaiso de Goiás. Though they fix residence in another city is in Brasilia or in its Administrative Regions - ARs that significant numbers of people search of work and for public equipment of health, education and leisure. It is common for these people to leave the city housing too early and only return at night. Observed the condition of Valparaíso de Goiás, about the supply of labor to the Federal District, notice the position of centrality of this city in relation that district. This peculiarity was named "inverted Centrality." The city, by this logic, is essential to relieve the district space of housing search and labor. The relationships pointed promote an apparent difficulty to establishment between city dwellers of a sense of belonging to it. The problem that led to these reflections was: how to structure the social identity of these people who live in a state of ubiquity? We consider the triangulation of methods as being the one that best meets the objectives of the research. For this we use the Qualitative and Quantitative research plus the Participant Research. At this methodology was added various types of sources and resources that enriched the data collection...

The narrowing between humans, domestic and wild animals has increased the dissemination of infectious agents for new hosts. The result of this interaction has lead to zoonosis. Among these animals are birds, which are natural reservoirs, carriers and disseminators of several infectious agents, potentially transmissible to humans. This dissemination can occur through direct and indirect contact with migratory birds originated from smuggling of wild animals. The objective was to detect viral, bacterial and fungal agents with zoonotic potential in wild birds in the county of Goiânia, Goiás. It was carried out a systematic review to assess the State of Goiás in relation to the performance of wild birds as carries of infectious agents to humans. Blood samples and cloacal swabs were collected from 88 different species of birds, as most of them were originated from smuggling and sent to CETAS-IBAMA in Goiânia in the first semester of 2010. The collects were analyzed in the Laboratory of Animal Virology at Federal University of Goiás (UFG) and the bacteriological and fungal analyses were done in the Laboratory of Microbiology at National Service of Industrial Education (SENAI) in Anápolis, Goiás. The blood was stored in tubes without anticoagulant in order to obtain serum and it was carried out a research with Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent to search for the antibody of influenza virus and the cause of Newcastle disease. In order to isolate and identify filamentous fungus...
