O presente livro jurídico tem por escopo analisar as principais transformações que aconteceram no âmbito do Direito de Família a partir do advento da Constituição de 1988, visto que, enquanto norma suprema do ordenamento jurídico, toda a legislação hierarquicamente inferior deve ser lida sob o filtro interpretativo do piso normativo constitucional, impactando sobremaneira na regulamentação das relações familiares. Neste contexto, percebe-se que, em razão da evolução histórica da sociedade, a família, outrora vinculada exclusivamente ao matrimônio, passou a ser reconhecida juridicamente pela formação de laços afetivos entre os seus membros, dando-se primazia ao afeto em...
One of the revelations with photography is that monochrome images often enable us to see the world and people in new, and often deeper, ways. Colour is such a dominant part of our vision that we often overlook more subtle variations in tones and textures.This book is a companion volume to the colour book "Rewilding the Human Spirit", but instead of repeating the contemporary narrative contained in that book, this work includes a range of directly relevant quotations which show and help to explain humans' deep and intrinsic connection to our natural world.The importance of landscape, nature and our natural world is shown both through these quotations and through just over 130 monochrome fine art nude images, involving 15 different women aged 24 to 43. The works have been shot in a range of natural locations around Europe.
The opening of the Amazon to colonization in the 1970s brought cattle, land conflict, and widespread deforestation. In the remote state of Acre, Brazil, rubber tappers fought against migrant ranchers to preserve the forest they relied on, and in the process, these "forest guardians" showed the world that it was possible to unite forest livelihoods and environmental preservation. Nowadays, many rubber tappers and their children are turning away from the forest-based lifestyle they once sought to protect and are becoming cattle-raisers or even caubois (cowboys). Rainforest Cowboys is the first book to examine the social and cultural forces driving the expansion of Amazonian cattle raising in a...

Music Genres and Corporate Cultures explores the seemingly haphazard workings of the music industry, tracing the uneasy relationship between economics and culture; `entertainment corporations' and the artists they sign. Keith Negus examines the contrasting strategies of major labels like Sony and Polygram in managing different genres, artists and staff. How do takeovers affect the treatment of artists? Why has Polygram been perceived as too European to attract US artists? And how did Warner's wooden floors help them sign Green Day? Through in-depth case studies of three major genres; rap, country, and salsa, Negus explores the way in which the music industry recognises and rewards certain so...
