Four organisations from the state of Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil, which won the fair trade seal, were analysed. Primary data collection occurred through semi-structured interviews and simultaneous annotations and, later, secondary data were collected from official documents, articles, academic works and websites. The results show that the experiences of organisations with Fair Trade International have numerous properties of the dimensions of social innovation. There was the emergence of an emerging development model with the opportunity to work collaboratively and collectively. These changes required adaptation and new practices, as producers underwent a period of changes in their working and production. The formation of cooperatives and fair trade certification had the mobilisation and participation of various actors, who also provided collective learning, both in technical terms and in terms of civic and interpersonal management, especially for rural producers.

Foi realizado um estudo de casos multiplos em duas das sete cadeias de suprimento de biodiesel localizadas no estado. Para a coleta de dados foram utilizadas diferentes fontes de evidencia: revisao bibliografica, conversas informais com os atores das cadeias, participacao em reunioes juntamente com alguns representantes dos elos das cadeias; relatorios do governo; entrevistas nao-estruturadas com representantes dos grupos de fornecimento, de consumo e alguns membros de suporte da cadeia e entrevistas semi-estruturadas com representantes das usinas produtores de biodiesel. Observou-se que os atributos da transacao e os pressupostos comportamentais impactaram na estrutura da Cadeia de Suprimento do Biodiesel localizadas no Rio Grande do Sul, algumas das descobertas relevantes sao: a presenca de oportunismo e incertezas nas transacoes entre os produtores familiares e usinas, a falta de fidelidade nas relacoes entre produtores familiares/cooperativas, produtores familiares/usinas e cooperativas/usinas faz com que as usinas tenham muitas trocas de fornecedores de graos, e a reducao do oportunismo e incerteza a partir de uma maior frequencia das transacoes e dos contratos assinados sob o Selo Combustivel Social.

TRANSACTION AS A STRUCTURING FACTOR OF BIODIESEL SUPPLY CHAIN IN RIO GRANDE DO SUL ABSTRACT The present article intend to analyze the transaction influence that occur between members of biodiesel supply chain in Rio Grande do Sul on these structure. A multiple cases study was performed in two of the six biodiesel supply chain localized in Rio Grande do Sul, for date collection were used different sources of evidence, such as: literature review, informal conversation with the actors of the chain, participation in meeting with same representatives of the chain links, government reports, non-structured interviews with representatives of supply, consumption and support group, and semi-structured interviews with representatives of biodiesel plants. It was identified that attributes of transaction and behavioral assumption have impact on the structure of the biodiesel supply chain in Rio Grande do Sul, some relevant findings are: the presence of opportunism and uncertainty in transactions between family farmers and biodiesel mills, the lack of fidelity in the relation between family farmers/cooperatives, family farmers/biodiesel mills and cooperatives/biodiesel mills resulted in constant change in the grain supply base of the biodiesel plants, and also was observed a reduction of opportunism and uncertainty due a greater transactions frequency, and in consequence of the contracts signed under Social Fuel Seal. Keywords Biodiesel; Supply Chain ; Rio Grande do Sul; National Program of Biodeisel Production and Use (PNPB); Transaction.

The present study aims to identify the effectiveness of TT processes as a measure of the performance of Brazilians Science and Technology Institutions (STIs) TTOs considering their technology, innovation promotion policies and intellectual property protection. It regards qualitative, exploratory-descriptive research with a multiple-study method. The data was collected through documentary research and semi-structured interviews with three groups of actors already participating in TT processes: researchers, TTO managers, and company managers.

Foi enredado como seu objeto de pesquisa o contexto de desenvolvimento de cenários para o desenvolvimento do Hidrogênio Verde no estado do Ceará, que envolvem sua produção, uso, transporte, armazenamento, bem como o comércio no mercado nacional e sua exportação.

The focus of the analysis is the local dimension of learning mechanisms, cooperation and innovation in local productive arrangements, considering the systemic and interactive nature of these processes, particularly the analysis of their specificities and innovative capacity. These arguments are applied to the empirical study performed in the productive arrangement of furniture in the city of Marco, in the state of Ceará, where one can see that learning and innovation depend mainly on sources of information that are external to the arrangement. The capacity for innovation is incremental and of low complexity, based on imitation, and there is still little interaction of the institutions with their surroundings.
