This book is a summary of the main research results and the presentations given at the final conference of the WAVES Program on June 25-26, 2001 in Fortaleza (Brazil). Global climatic change will most likely affect natural resources and human living conditions in semi-arid regions. The authors present disciplinary as well as integrative methods to assess these impacts considering the interactions between climate variability and change, water availability, land-use systems, and quality of life.
This book includes selecting the articles accepted for presentation and discussion at WCQR2021, held on January 20th to 22nd, 2021 (Virtual Conference). The World Conference on Qualitative Research (WCQR) is an annual event that aims to bring together researchers, academics and professionals, promoting the sharing and discussion of knowledge, new perspectives, experiences and innovations on Qualitative Research.

The book is a valuable resource for everyone interested in qualitative research, emphasizing Computer-Assisted Qualitative Data Analysis Software (CAQDAS).
A obra é toda conduzida conforme os ditames do Novo Código de Processo Civil de 2015. Contém parte teórica (primeiro capítulo) e prática (segundo capítulo). As petições, incluídas na parte prática do livro, são de complexidades elevadas. O autor procurou trazer ao usuário casos que mais convirjam ao cotidiano das lides forenses, sobretudo no aspecto da dificuldade dos temas enfocados. Dentro do possível se buscou uma aproximação às verdadeiras lides convividas no dia a dia do advogado. A obra é atualizada com jurisprudência do ano de 2015. Igualmente é provida de farta doutrina de autores consagrados. Ademais, as teses levadas a efeito na parte prática são, de fato, empregadas nos embates forenses. No capítulo destinado à teoria, o autor, já conhecido por sua maneira de expor suas ideias, em certas passagens justifica seus argumentos com imagens. E isso certamente traz maior facilidade de compreensão do teor explanado. O livro é de autoria do professor Alberto Bezerra, advogado atuante há mais de 25 anos, com vários outros livros publicados na seara da prática forense.
Genre studies and genre approaches to literacy instruction continue to develop in many regions and from a widening variety of approaches. Genre has provided a key to understanding the varying literacy cultures of regions, disciplines, professions, and educational settings. GENRE IN A CHANGING WORLD provides a wide-ranging sampler of the remarkable variety of current work. The twenty-four chapters in this volume, reflecting the work of scholars in Europe, Australasia, and North and South America, were selected from the over 400 presentations at SIGET IV (the Fourth International Symposium on Genre Studies) held on the campus of UNISUL in Tubarão, Santa Catarina, Brazil in August 2007—the l...
Covering more than one hundred years of history, this multidisciplinary collection of essays illuminates the important links between citizenship, national belonging, and popular music in Brazil.
Modernity in Black and White provides a groundbreaking account of modern art and modernism in Brazil. Departing from previous accounts, mostly restricted to the elite arenas of literature, fine art and architecture, the book situates cultural debates within the wider currents of Brazilian life. From the rise of the first favelas, in the 1890s and 1900s, to the creation of samba and modern carnival, over the 1910s and 1920s, and tracking the expansion of mass media and graphic design, into the 1930s and 1940s, it foregrounds aspects of urban popular culture that have been systematically overlooked. Against this backdrop, Cardoso provides a radical re-reading of Antropofagia and other modernist currents, locating them within a broader field of cultural modernization. Combining extensive research with close readings of a range of visual cultural production, the volume brings to light a vast archive of art and images, all but unknown outside Brazil.
