Competition
The proliferation of economic agents with market power, especially those operating in the digital economy and which add unprecedented dynamic and complexity to it, has sparked heated discussions among academics, professionals, and competition authorities around the world regarding the effects of their actions on the market and consumers. Unlike classic cartels – a conduct that has been treated as per se unlawful in Brazil, regardless of the production of effects under Brazilian competition law – unilateral conduct falls into a gray area, encompassing different practices with different effects on the market. In this sense, examples of unilateral conduct that may be considered anticompetit...

On the Limits of Constitutional Adjudication
Juliano Z. Benvindo investigates the current movement of constitutional courts towards political activism, especially by focusing on the increasing use of the balancing method as a “rational” justification for this process. From the critical perception of the serious risks of this movement to democracy, the book takes as examples two constitutional realities, Germany and Brazil, in order to discuss the rationality, correctness, and legitimacy of constitutional decisions within this context. Through a dialogue between Jacques Derrida’s deconstruction and Jürgen Habermas’s proceduralism, the author confronts Robert Alexy’s defense of the balancing method as well as those two constitutional realities. This confrontation leads to the introduction of the concept of limited rationality applied to constitutional democracy and constitutional adjudication, which affirms the double bind of history and justice as a condition for a practice of decision-making committed to the principle of separation of powers.
Women in Antitrust
This is the first international book of the Women in Antitrust Network and we could not be more grateful for the opportunity to carry out this project and happier with the result. The ambition to organize a book written by women from different countries and nationalities rose from the success of the national book "Mulheres no Antitruste", which is already in its 6th edition, as well as from the WIA's dream of expanding the reach of its projects and introducing them to women from antitrust academic community outside Brazil. Aiming to understand and pursue the most recent discussions on Antitrust Law in different jurisdictions, we invited brilliant authors to contribute with unpublished articl...

Responsabilidade Civil, Gênero e Sexualidades - 1a Ed - 2024
"A partir da consideração de que a sexualidade é uma característica humana inafastável, evidencia-se a existência de uma enorme gama de situações em que aspectos vinculados ao sexo, gênero, orientação sexual e identidade de gênero estão na base de condutas ensejadoras de responsabilidade civil, razão pela qual tal obra se mostra tão necessária e pertinente, ainda mais nos tempos atuais, sobretudo em razão dos danos sofridos refletirem o espectro de forte discriminação e opressão. Todas as pessoas têm a sua vivência em sociedade tangenciada pelos elementos que lhe são caracterizadores, o que descortina que as dissidências sexuais de forma recorrente suportam diversas s...
Discriminação Algorítmica na Tomada de Decisões Automatizadas
O presente livro busca analisar qual a melhor forma de reparar os danos causados pela ocorrência de discriminação algorítmica em tomada de decisões automatizadas por sistemas de Inteligência Artificial no âmbito privado, como nos setores de seguro e no recrutamento de emprego. O problema surge em função da caraterística de autonomia da Inteligência Artificial, bem como pelo fato dessa tecnologia ser cada vez mais utilizada. Para essa abordagem, o livro busca analisar os aspectos gerais a respeito das decisões automatizadas, com destaque para as características da Inteligência Artificial e as formas de se evitar a ocorrência de vieses algorítmicos – analisando-se aqui os aspectos relacionados à Inteligência Artificial que estão inseridos na Lei Geral de Proteção de Dados. Além disso, são examinadas as melhores formas de se reparar os danos causados pelo uso de sistemas de Inteligência Artificial, com enfoque no risco da atividade algorítmica e nas soluções discutidas pela doutrina para resolver essa problemática, através de seguros obrigatórios e fundos de compensação e da criação de uma personalidade jurídica.
A teoria do órgão de fato e sua aplicação ao Direito brasileiro
O livro analisa a "teoria do órgão de fato", utilizada para caracterizar e responsabilizar os chamados "membros orgânicos de fato", ou seja, aquelas pessoas que exercem materialmente um conjunto de atribuições orgânicas ou influenciam os órgãos sociais de um dado ente coletivo (incluindo-se as sociedades), sem ter assumido formalmente a posição orgânica. Exemplos importantes verificados no direito brasileiro são: administrador, sócio e controlador de fato. A primeira parte faz uma análise sistematizada a respeito da teoria orgânica. A segunda parte examina a teoria do órgão de fato. A terceira, sua aplicação ao Direito brasileiro.
