A Incapacidade Eleitoral Ativa das Pessoas com Deficiência Mental à Luz da Constituição
O sufrágio é, hoje, universal. Assim o diz a Constituição. Mas é também a própria Constituição que lhe admite restrições. Estribadas, justamente, nessa habilitação constitucional, as nossas Leis Eleitorais estabelecem, uma vez cumpridos certos requisitos, a incapacidade eleitoral ativa das pessoas com deficiência mental. Ora, atendendo ao que resulta da Convenção sobre os Direitos das Pessoas com Deficiência - Tratado Internacional de que Portugal é signatário – será mesmo de restringir o direito de voto das pessoas com deficiência mental? E caso se assuma essa restrição, em que termos e com que limites? Estarão as nossas Leis Eleitorais em consonância, nesta matéria, com os princípios fundamentais plasmados na Constituição? São algumas das perguntas a que aqui se procura dar resposta.
Chronic Kidney Disease - Novel Insights into Pathophysiology and Treatment
In clinical practice, all physicians have to deal with patients suffering from chronic kidney disease. Large numbers of these patients suffer from mild conditions, but nevertheless, they deserve special attention because inappropriate management may accelerate kidney function deterioration. On the other side, patients affected by end-stage renal disease require replacement therapies and often represent a challenge for clinicians due to their complex pathophysiology. Therefore, an adequate knowledge of the most important clinical and therapeutic aspects of renal failure is an essential requirement for every doctor, especially if we consider the increasing incidence and prevalence of this cond...
From Life Molecules to Global Health
Health care demands more and more cooperation and the convergence of all health related sciences, from Life Molecules to Global Health, as was most recently shown by the challenge of the COVID pandemic.

BIOgrafias: Vidas de quem estuda a vida
As scientists we are often unprepared and unwilling to communicate our passion for what we do to those outside our professional circles. Scientific literature can also be difficult or unattractive to those without a professional interest in research. Storytelling can be a successful approach to enable readers to engage with the challenges faced by scientists. In an effort to convey to the public what it means to be a field biologist, 18 Portuguese biologists came together to write a book titled “BIOgraphies: The lives of those who study life”, in the original Portuguese “BIOgrafias: Vidas de quem estuda a vida”. This book is a collection of 35 field stories that became career landmarks for those who lived them. We discuss the obstacles and opportunities of the publishing process and reflect on the lessons learned for future outreach efforts.
Doing Business 2008
Regulations affecting 10 areas of everyday business are measured: starting a business, dealing with licenses, employing workers, registering property, getting credit, protecting investors, paying taxes, trading across borders, enforcing contracts, and closing a business. 'Doing Business 2008' updates all 10 sets of indicators, ranks countries on their overall ease of doing business, and analyzes reforms to business regulation - identifying which countries are improving their business environment the most and which ones slipped. The indicators are used to analyze economic outcomes and identify what reforms have worked, where and why. 'Doing Business 2008' focuses on how complex business regulations dampen investment, growth and job creation in all businesses, and especially opportunities for women entrepreneurs.
Jesuit Art
In Jesuit Art, Mia Mochizuki considers the artistic production of the pre-suppression Society of Jesus (1540–1773) from a global perspective. Geographic and medial expansion of the standard corpus changes not only the objects under analysis, it also affects the kinds of queries that arise. Mochizuki draws upon masterpieces and material culture from around the world to assess the signature structural innovations pioneered by Jesuits in the history of the image. When the question of a ‘Jesuit style’ is rehabilitated as an inquiry into sources for a spectrum of works, the Society’s investment in the functional potential of illustrated books reveals the traits that would come to define the modern image as internally networked, technologically defined, and innately subjective.
Improving Quality of Life
The authors of this volume provide a window into what influences the quality of life, why people live longer, and why we are relatively better off compared to decades ago. While the potential ways of measuring life quality are abundant, understanding what causes improvement requires careful study and consideration. This volume provides useful insight into these challenges and helps to highlight a clear and important separation between wellbeing and standard of living, both relevant to assessing the quality of life. Standard of living refers to the material welfare of a group. Wellbeing, on the other hand, encapsulates harder-to-measure subjective preferences. Together they help us to understand the quality of life of certain groups at specific times, and in specific communities.

Literaturas de Língua Inglesa: leituras interdisciplinares Vol. I
De 2003 a 2015, com a regularidade de um clockwork, a equipe docente da especialidade Literaturas de Língua Inglesa, do Programa de Pós-Graduação em Letras da UERJ, editou os 13 volumes da série Feminismos, identidades, comparativismos: vertentes nas literaturas de língua inglesa. Durante esse extenso lapso de tempo, a proposta da série correspondeu plenamente à agenda de pesquisas da área, ao eleger certa ramificação dos estudos culturais, a chamada crítica feminista, como sua referência principal. Induziu assim a produção de ensaios situados a meio caminho entre a reivindicação política e a investigação estética, que certamente cumpriram seu papel nas cenas acadêmica ...
