Onze entre pesquisadoras e pesquisadores em diferentes áreas das Ciências Humanas e de várias Universidades na América e na Europa estão aqui reunidos para aprofundar distintas formas de entrevista feitas entre Argentina, Brasil e Itália e, partindo de um específico caso de estudo, apontam ou elaboram, de maneira pormenorizada, as implicações metodológicas da produção e da análise da entrevista. Não só: alguns autores e autoras, no interior da narração, tecem uma escrita de si mesmos. A ocasião do encontro foi um seminário sobre as novas metodologias para o estudo da história oral, celebrado na Universidade Ca? Foscari de Veneza, em fevereiro de 2020, justo no momento do surto da pandemia que, na Europa, golpeou por primeiro o Norte da Itália. A leitura deste livro demonstra que, não obstante as dificuldades que infelizmente todos conhecemos, os autores e autoras constituíram-se como um verdadeiro grupo de trabalho e as interconexões, dentro de temas aparentemente tão diferentes entre si, são indícios evidentes de um debate que a distância e o isolamento não apagaram.

The book addresses contemporary challenges related to chronicity in the context of life and health. The book is structured across 11 core axes to aid healthcare professionals in understanding the topic. The axes address issues such as health promotion and quality of life, the transition from ephemerality to chronicity throughout life, the presence of chronicity in childhood and adolescence, violence against transgender people, the coexistence of communicable and non-communicable chronic diseases in the community, work-related chronic diseases, chronicity in the elderly, and strategies for sustainable development in this context. It discusses the importance of palliative care for patients facing finitude and explores the role of spirituality in coping with chronicity. In summary, the book aims to present a comprehensive and multidimensional perspective on chronicity, providing valuable insights for the teaching, research, extension, and care sectors.
This book presents a practical, holistic research framework to help us both understand our past and build an appealing human future.
This book examines the meat provision system of Rio de Janeiro from the 1850s to the 1930s. Until the 1920s, Rio was Brazil’s economic hub, main industrial city, and prime consumer market. Meat consumption was an indicator of living standards and a matter of public concern. The work unveils that in the second half of the nineteenth century, the city was well supplied with red meat. Initially, dwellers relied mostly on salted meat; then, in the latter decades of the 1800s, two sets of changes upgraded fresh meat deliveries. First, ranching expansion and transportation innovation in southeast and central-west Brazil guaranteed a continuous flow of cattle to Rio. Second, the municipal centralization of meat processing and distribution made its provision regular and predictable. By the early twentieth century, fresh meat replaced salted meat in the urban marketplace. This study examines these developments in light of national and global developments in the livestock and meat industries.

The book is divided into two volumes, and it covers the areas of technology in tourism and the tourist experience, generations and technology in tourism, digital marketing applied to tourism and travel, mobile technologies applied to sustainable tourism, information technologies in tourism, digital transformation of tourism business, e-tourism and tourism 2.0, big data and management for travel and tourism, geotagging and tourist mobility, smart destinations, robotics in tourism, and information systems and technologies.
This edited book discusses lean production as a suitable platform for global development by developing systems and products in a quicker, costless and sustainable way and educate people for a lean consumption. Lean thinking principles are totally and synergistically aligned with a lot of disciplines and current issues such as logistic, supply chain, construction, healthcare, ergonomics, education, project management, leadership, coaching, startup, product development, farming and sustainable development. Lean-Green is particularly related to this last issue, sustainable development, the first global challenge for humanity that are totally connected to all remaining 14 global challenges because they are interdependent. Attaining these challenges could bring solutions for the 17 Sustainable Development Goals. Lean Production and Consumption have an important role in providing these solutions, by systematically reducing wastes in all activities performed, and at the same time, instruct people in having a lean consumption. The target audience primarily comprises research experts in lean management, but the book may also be beneficial for practitioners alike.
Estudo da sociedade brasileira do fim do século XIX e começo do século XX, delineado a partir das evidências de como os escritores interagiam e da maneira como retratavam os mecanismos das relações cotidianas. O autor debate as vivências de fraternidade, como reflexo dos valores da época, observando os paradigmas de inclusão (ou exclusão) racial, social ou sexual. Como base para essa análise, aponta episódios que marcaram a trajetória de literatos como Raul Pompeia, Adolfo Caminha, Cruz e Souza, Nestor Vitor, José Lins do Rego, Gilberto Freyre, entre outros.
