The increasing integration of the world economy has demonstrated the critical need to identify industries and associated skill sets that could help regions maintain their competitiveness. Finally, the state of Ceará was more affected by shocks in the southern and southeastern Brazilian than in the Northeast. Furthermore, shocks in industrial activity of major trading partners had positive repercussions in the growth of regional exports of Brazil and the effect of export growth to industrial dynamics depend on the nature of the export sector in each region. Under the same conditions, the Northeast had a negative impact on the Southeast and South of Brazil. The main results indicate that the Southeast region has the largest and most persistent effects on other regions. Brazilian and its largest trading partner data was used to estimate a multivariate dynamic model with parameter constraints. ABSTRACT: This paper analyzes the industrial activity observed between Brazilian regions and their relation with Ceará state, considering inter-intra-regional and international spillovers. Palavras-Chave: Atividade Industrial Interdependência Regional Setor Externo Modelo Dinâmico. Por fim, o estado do Ceará se mostrou mais afetado por choques no Sudeste e Sul brasileiros do que pelo Nordeste. Os resultados indicam que a região Sudeste apresenta as maiores e mais persistentes repercussões sobre as demais regiões, que um aumento na atividade industrial dos principais parceiros comerciais apresenta efeitos positivos no crescimento das exportações regionais do Brasil e que o efeito do crescimento das exportações na dinâmica industrial depende da natureza do setor exportador. Para isso, dados dos estados brasileiros, agregados em regiões, da economia brasileira e dos principais parceiros comerciais internacionais foram utilizados na estimação de um modelo multivariado dinâmico.

RESUMO: O presente artigo analisa a relação dinâmica da atividade industrial entre as regiões brasileiras e destas com o estado do Ceará, considerando a possibilidade de repercussões inter/intrarregionais e internacionais. We encourage organizational communication researchers to take up the 2009 MCQ call for further studies in Brazil. As participants aspired to meaningful work, they experienced dysfunctional and corrupt work cultures, toxic workplace relationships, and shifts in their worldviews that deflated their sense of meaningfulness, resulting in reported psychological distancing, emotional distress, and turnover intentions.

Participants cast meaningful work as tensional processes within and across themes, reflecting characteristics of Brazilian middle classes and globalized discourses. Three themes emerged from interview data: being competent, being an explorer, and being a builder of a better world. Our study explores Brazilian white-collar employees' accounts of meaningful work. However, most studies are quantitative and situated in Western, developed nations with different discourses and materialities based on whether studies focus on economically mainstream or marginal, but symbolically significant, occupations. The search for meaningfulness in work is considered a human need, resulting in growing communication and interdisciplinary scholarship.
