Getalisio Vargas, The Fourteenth President Of Brazil. (1882-1954)

During the early 1960s, Brazil entered a period of unrest caused by the military’s concern over the direction of government policies. The military’s concern rose toward the end of the 1950s due to the president’s perceived connection to communist world leaders. Prior to the Military Coup, the American government demanded that Brazil either move away from leftist policies or be forcefully changed. When Brazil did not comply, the United States, concerned that Brazil would join the communist block in South America, provided money and weapons to help the military overthrow the government. Although the Brazilian Military Coup of 1964 stimulated the Brazilian economy by investing more money into national growth, it was ultimately unsuccessful because

The geographical proximity and history of political ties between Brazil and Argentina lend a hand to the fruition of ideologically parallel presidential regimes during the 1940s and 1950s. Brazil’s economy found itself in trouble after coffee and agricultural exports, on which much of the economy depended, sharply declined during the Great Depression. Getulio Vargas, who was the acting president from 1930 to 1945 and for a second term in 1951 until his death, helped to reform and support the Brazilian people under a populist regime. In 1954, Vargas committed suicide after a lackluster three years back in office, leaving a note that spoke to his constituency’s deep-seeded admiration for Vargas’ charismatic leadership. In Argentina, a fear of

“How is dignity upheld? The dignity of every person, independent of ethnicity, creed, gender, sexuality, age or ability, is the foundation of CST. No human being should have their dignity or freedom compromised. Poverty, hunger, oppression and injustice make it impossible to live a life commensurate with this dignity. At Caritas Australia, all our programs are people-centred with empowerment at their heart. People are never treated as commodities nor as mere recipients of aid.” (Caritas.org.au, 2015)

In society, there are groups that interact with each other. They may be families, churches, government agencies, or anything in between. Those groups can be defined as systems, and in the systems perspective that is what they are referred to (Hutchison, 2017). In the 1960s, Ludwig von Bertalanffy developed the general systems theory in relation to biology, but it was widely publicized and used for various subjects (Hutchison, 2017). Hutchison (2017) summarized Bertalanffy’s theory by saying, “any element is best understood by considering its interactions with its constituent parts as well as its interactions with larger systems of which it is a part.” (p.

“The law of unintended consequences is what happens when a simple system tries to regulate a complex system. The political system is simple; it operates with limited information (rational ignorance), short time horizons, low feedback, and poor and misaligned incentives. Society in contrast is a complex, evolving, high-feedback, incentive-driven system. When a simple system tries to regulate a complex system you often get unintended consequences.” (1)

“..the System includes the Situation, but it is more enduring, more widespread, involving extensive networks of people, their expectations, norms, policies, and, perhaps, laws. Over time, Systems come to have a historical foundation and sometimes also a political and economic power structure that governs and directs the behavior of many people within its sphere of influence. Systems are the engines that run situations that create behavioral contexts that influence the human action of those under their control. At some point, the System may become an autonomous entity, independent of those who initially started it or even those in apparent authority within its power structure. Each System

Ideally, this ascertains the equality of power. A cyclic system where the law changes with the people and adjusts itself accordingly as the essence of man itself changes; where any change in the attitudes of the people is reflected in a change in the law. Equilibrium is, therefore, maintained and this allows elasticity and exposes duality in the expression of power.

Category 1 Some understandings of human dignity are based in the belief that it is something all humans already have, these are called “Attributed Dignity” (Weisstub and Díaz Pintos, 2008, p 27)

“Dignity is a state of physical, emotional and spiritual comfort, with each individual valued for his or her uniqueness and his or her individuality celebrated. Dignity is promoted when individuals are enabled to do the best within their capabilities, exercise control, make choices and feel involved in the decision-making that underpins their care.”

The General Systems Theory (GST) came about as an effort to describe the systems approach, born from the biological concept of the organism developed in the first part of the 20th century (Von Bertalanffy, 1972). In contrast to the mechanistic systems which are closed and have a direct relationship between a cause and its effect, a biological or social system is open, operating on a principle of equifinality, where regardless of the starting point, the objective can be achieved (Kast & Rosenzweig, 1972). Any system will achieve equilibrium, but an open system can reach a steady state by accessing resources from outside itself (Kast & Rosenzweig, 1972). The underlying assumptions of GST rely on the organization of a company resembling the inner workings of an organism. However, subgroups within organizations can act independently of the the whole, in
