A partir da década de 1990, vem ganhando vulto a questão dos conflitos internos que ocorrem em diversos países e de suas consequências nefastas quanto às condições de sobrevivência de suas populações, o que nos conduz a uma reflexão sobre até que ponto o Estado, em nome de sua soberania, tem o direito de infligir sofrimento e, em muitos casos, chegando ao extremo de matar sua própria população. Em 2001, a Organização das Nações Unidas (ONU) lança a doutrina da "Responsabilidade de Proteger", segundo a qual compete ao Estado dar proteção e assistência a sua população e se, de algum modo, aquele não cumprir com esta obrigação ou não tiver condições de fazê-lo, a...

In this book, we propose some approaches about interrelationships between vaccine strategies and microbial epidemiology, taking into account as reference the whooping cough, an endemic disease with significant morbidity and mortality and of indisputable importance in public health.
The influenza virus poses a threat to human health and is responsible for global epidemics every year. In addition to seasonal infections, influenza can cause occasional pandemics of great consequence when novel viruses are introduced into humans. Despite the implementation of comprehensive vaccination programs, influenza viruses continue to pose an important and unpredictable global public health threat. They are one of the most significant causes of morbidity and mortality each year and have a significant economic impact. In recent years, research has been conducted to find alternative approaches to influenza vaccine development, including the generation of universal vaccines. Notably, sig...
A former Deputy Attorney General of the United States argues that we must preserve our civil liberties and democratic values while fighting terrorism. On September 11, 2001, the United States began to consider the terrorist threat in a new light. Terrorism was no longer something that happened in other countries on other continents but became a pressing domestic concern for the US government and American citizens. The nation suddenly faced a protracted struggle. In Terrorism, Freedom, and Security, Philip Heymann continues the discussion of responses to terrorism that he began in his widely read Terrorism and America. He argues that diplomacy, intelligence, and international law should play ...

Lukáš Jasanský and Martin Polák are among the best known and respected Czech photographers. They express themselves through extensive series of photographs that until now have only been documented separately, in small publications; a larger overview and assessment of their work has thus been missing.The photographic duo have, since the late 1980s, been documenting in detail the changes occurring in both urban landscapes (for example the Pragensia series) as well as rural ones (the Czech Landscape and Czech Villages series) which mark an evolution from the 'Communist past' to the 'Capitalist future'.This publication is the first book to comprehensively document the history of all the series of this photographer-duo. Published within the context of the series Tranzit, edited by Vít Havránek, focusing on Central and Eastern European artists.English and Czech text.
