André Azevedo Alves: "O PSD e o bailinho da Madeira"

Os acontecimentos recentes na Madeira que conduziram à queda do executivo liderado por Miguel Albuquerque chegam na pior altura possível para o PSD. Aquilo que seria sempre um caso com implicações nefastas para o PSD nacional assume, a poucas semanas das eleições legislativas, uma dimensão ainda mais grave pela forma como a liderança nacional do partido não soube reagir adequadamente.

Como bem explicou Miguel Morgado na SIC N pouco depois de serem conhecidos os desenvolvimentos da investigação, a saída de Miguel Albuquerque era inevitável. Luís Montenegro, que poderia e deveria ter tomado a iniciativa num momento que seria sempre muito difícil para o PSD, falhou na reacção e perdeu ainda mais terreno neste tema, que como é sabido é central na estratégia eleitoral do Chega.

Galeria Fundação Amélia de Mello | UCP | Lisboa - Sede


Curated by Luísa Santos, the exhibition "Uncanny River (The Crossing)", by João Biscainho, opens the GN (Generation Next) programming cycle, at the Amélia de Mello Foundation Gallery, dedicated to artistic and research projects. 

"When we enter - in fact, when we immerse ourselves - in the space of the Gallery made sculpture-installation, we are immediately drawn to the abyss that receives us. A moving image projected on a glass structure, to which its reflection in a mirror is associated at ninety degrees, portrays an impossible watercourse that goes back and forth simultaneously", indicates Luísa Santos, curator of this exhibition.

Inauguration: May 23rd, at 6:30 pm, at the Amélia de Mello Foundation Gallery | Catholic University of Lisbon.

Start and End Date: The exhibition runs from May 23 to October 2019.

Pedro Celeste: "A era do Marketing 6.0"

E hoje, por força da evolução digital, das alterações do comportamento dos consumidores, da necessidade em compreender cada momento de jornada do cliente e pelas alterações do contexto externo com extrema rapidez, o marketing tem necessidade de evoluir para uma nova era.

Assim, contempla uma tripla dimensão que vive de forma integrada e imersiva e cujos vértices são representados pela tecnologia, humanização e pela envolvente. Vejamos o seguinte exemplo: o crescimento do metaverso e da inteligência artificial permitem a simulação da experiência de condução de um determinado automóvel, na cor que elegemos, com o modelo que pretendemos, circulando pelas ruas que escolhemos. Estão presentes nesta história a tecnologia, a customização e a envolvente, todas elas contribuindo para moldar a experiência do cliente e eventualmente, ser partilhada.

«Estamos num momento profundamente difícil para as democracias», afirma reitora da Católica

A Reitora da Universidade Católica Portuguesa (UCP) afirmou que há uma “crise de confiança nas instituições”, o discurso público “está completamente contaminado” e considera que as democracias vivem um momento “profundamente difícil”.

“No contexto europeu estamos num momento profundamente difícil para as democracias”, disse Isabel Capeloa Gil em entrevista à Agência ECCLESIA.

A Reitora da UCP alertou para a “crise de confiança nas instituições” que se vive na sociedade europeia, referindo que “o ressentimento e o desencanto das pessoas com as condições de vida provoca um esboroar das instituições que muitas vezes não estão à altura daquilo que delas se exige”.

Filipe Santos: "O centro político pode ganhar facilmente, é só querer"

Vem este artigo a propósito de como a teoria económica pode salvar Portugal da delicada situação política em que nos encontramos, garantindo que não só sairá um governo estável das eleições mas também que esse governo estará alinhado com os valores fundamentais da nossa sociedade e comprometido com o programa de governo que apresentou aos eleitores.

A teoria de jogos é o ramo da Economia que estuda processos de decisão entre vários agentes que têm que tomar decisões cujo resultado depende das decisões dos outros. Neste campo, existem problemas tipicamente denominados de "Dilema do Prisioneiro" em que dois agentes económicos ganhariam muito em colaborar, mas a falta de informação e desconfiança no outro agente levam a um resultado pior para ambos. Um objetivo importante da teoria económica é conseguir desenhar modelos de governança e soluções para que a cooperação aconteça e todos ganhem.
