    Valuing immovable cultural heritage as opportunity generator for the revival of local identity.
    2015 - Ivanc, Tjaša; Caramelo-Gomes, José
    Value is the center of heritage protection; it is what justifies legal regulations for protecting the built heritage and financial investments for its maintenance and suggests usefulness and benefits of the heritage as resource for regional growth and sustainability. Classifying (by means of proclamation) immovable property as being a part of monumental heritage has been the central instrument of heritage protection law. The basis of the protection is identifying the (object of) public interest, and this identification ex lege commences legal protection i.e. protection regimes are restored on proclaimed immovable monuments. Even though values are widely understood to be critical to understanding for heritage protection, there is a little knowledge how the whole range of values may be assessed in the context of decision-making and establishing significance of the build heritage in question. The paper seeks to examine the role of the built heritage as property development and its impact to local identity. A critical review of financial management and attitude of state and local government towards built heritage is undertaken.

    Social responsibility and career education: An international case study
    2018 - Costa-Lobo, Cristina; Menezes, José; Campina, Ana; Caramelo-Gomes, José; Morais, Paula; Jesus-Silva, Natacha; Formosinho, Maria das Dores
    Corporate Social Responsibility and career education emerge in a context of a society where the importance of the ability to anticipate change, adapt to new circumstances, and invent new business practices is explicit. Career education has been presented as an effective response to the requirements of adaptability, flexibility, and continuing education. This paper is a report on the findings of a study conducted at an international leading food group. Documentary analysis and discourse analysis techniques were used to examine how corporate social responsibility and career education are valued by this international group. The sample of this investigation is composed by the Director of the development area, by the Coordinator and two Social Assistants of the Social Emergency Fund. The success and effectiveness of this international group are marked by ambition, ability to resist difficulties, sharing of values, spirit of unity and team sense. In addition to internal training, it directs investments for external training by promoting actions such as participation in seminars and congresses worldwide and the creation of partnerships in various areas of management with prestigious teaching entities. Findings indicate the creation of a training school, with initiatives for internal and external training, in partnerships with prestigious teaching entities. Of particular note is the Management Trainees Program, developed for more than 25 years, characterized by building a career by obtaining knowledge and skills acquired in the combination of on-the-job experience and a training program.

    Legal and contractual implications of the e-Work and e-business: Legal research project
    2002 - Caramelo-Gomes, José
    This paper summarizes the results and findings of two consecutive legal research projects and launches a third legal research project. The first, Victori@ was developed under the ADAPT initiative, and the second, the eLPS project (eLegal Problems Survey) is a joint initiative of the Universidade Moderna in Setubal and the University of Salford, in the UK. The first project produced a legal guide for the e- Worker, eEmployer and e-Businessman in Portugal and the second project aims to deepen some of the basic concepts introduced in the Victory@ project and to analyse some of its findings in specific contexts. The findings of both projects are the basis for a new legal research project the eLegal-China, aiming to survey the Chinese legal framework for e- Work and e-Business.

    A auto-regulamentação da actividade seguradora na União Europeia
    2003 - Caramelo-Gomes, José
    O tema que me foi proposto para estas Jornadas é a auto-regulamentação do seguro na União Europeia. Como em tudo na vida, devemos partir do geral para o especial, o que neste caso significa desde já a clarificação do conceito de auto-regulamentação que vou utilizar. Qualquer actividade humana carece de alguma regulamentação por muito incipiente que seja. A prática das últimas décadas no mundo ocidental, motivada por preocupações sociais, económicas e de interesse público, tem sido a de uma crescente regulamentação das actividades por parte dos poderes públicos. O que significa, pelo essencial, que assistimos, durante todo o século XX a um aumento exponencial na produção legislativa reguladora das actividades humanas. [...]

    The case study in learning law
    2018 - Mimoso, Maria João; Caramelo-Gomes, José; Magalhães, Bárbara
    The present study is a reflection on the method of case study in learning law. To achieve this purpose we will discuss the traditional method and its limitations to the challenges of law in the era of globalization. We will emphasize the urgent need to implement the case study method in Portuguese law schools, as an instrument that enhances the active participation of the student, protagonist in the process of learning and knowledge acquisition. It is intended that students develop critical thinking and be able to reflect on their own learning process. A review of the literature will be carried out, which will seek to contextualize, at present, the reflexivity with the pedagogical objective. Use shall be a deductive reasoning, based on the general reality of teaching to learning the law, underlining the importance of the case study method for the development of didactic and pedagogical dimension. At the end of this tour we will be able to discern the extent of the right learning, seeking a methodological model capable of mobilizing students for their new role, participatory and critical.
