A Political Psychology Approach to Militancy and Prefigurative Activism
This book frames a series of protests occurred in Brazil from 2013 to 2016 as exemplary cases of global trends in contentious politics to analyze the tension between two forms of collective action: the militant (militante) and the prefigurative activist (ativista). Building on sociology, political science, and psychology, it explores the relationship between protestors' activities and conceptions of political participation with their subjectivity and agency. The protest cycle triggered by the June 2013 events in Brazil gave strength and popularity to repertoires and strategies of collective action uncommon and innovative. Those praxes defied political parties' conventions, highlighted the li...
Medicinal and Aromatic Plants of South America
This volume in the series deals with the major Medicinal and Aromatic Plants MAPs of South America, providing information on major aspects of this specific group of plants on that continent (botany, traditional usage, chemistry, production/collection practices, trade and utilization). Brazil, in particular, offers an immense amount of biodiversity, including plants with great pharmacological interest and medicinal importance. The Amazon Basin, in northern Brazil has a highly diverse biota and still harbours a variety of unknown and unstudied plant species for medicinal values. Contributions are from internationally recognized professionals, specialists of the Medicinal and Aromatic Plant domain and have been invited mostly from the members of the International Society for Horticultural Science and International Council for Medicinal and Aromatic Plants.
Ao homem comum
Não devemos mais ser tratados como gados, abatidos dia a dia nas ruas e até dentro do lar. A educação deve ser iniciada no âmbito familiar, complementada pelas escolas, aperfeiçoada por Universidades, mas como homem comum, em processo de humanização natural, livre para saber entender e escolher sempre a liberdade, a paz e a prosperidade. Homem nasce homem (e seus derivados) e pode ser humanizado ou não. A burocracia estatal não mais necessita dos cargos de presidente nem de governador; são como capatazes das manadas dentro da burocracia, e trazem consigo os perigos de renascerem as tiranias, após ajustar a Constituição, Contrato Social, civilizado. Com Leis perfeitas e perenes,...
Constructing Early Modern Empires
The role of proprietorships or ‘private’ colonies in imperial development has not received the attention it deserves, notwithstanding recent scholarly emphasis on ‘state-building’. The continued use of these ‘private’ devices, even as early modern European nation-states grew more potent, is not only interesting, but is indeed normative though invariably missing from modern studies of empire. This collection provides in-depth analyses of the workings of the proprietorships themselves (rather than proprietary colonies) and in studies ranging from South Carolina to Nieuw Nederland to French West Africa to Brasil, broadens this discussion beyond British North America. Contributors include: Mickaël Augeron, Kenneth Banks, Sarah Barber, Philip Boucher, Olivier Caporossi, Leslie Choquette, David Dewar, Jaap Jacobs, Maxine N. Lurie, Debra A. Meyers, L.H. Roper, James O’Neil Spady, Bertrand Van Ruymbeke, Cécile Vidal, and Laurent Vidal.
Effectiveness of Tax and Price Policies for Tobacco Control
This new volume of the IARC Handbooks of Cancer Prevention in Tobacco Control presents a critical review and evaluation of the evidence by 25 international experts from twelve countries on the economics, epidemiology, public policy and tobacco control aspects of tax and price policies. The working group draws conclusions about the effectiveness of tax and price measures to control tobacco use in the population. The Handbook covers an overview of tobacco taxation; industry pricing strategies and other industry initiatives diluting the effects of taxes on consumption; tax, price and aggregated demand for tobacco, as well as demand at the individual level in adults, young people and the economically disadvantaged; tax avoidance and tax evasion and the economic and health impacts of tobacco taxation. This body of evidence and the consensus evaluation of 18 concluding statements on the impact of interventions to increase the price of tobacco products, can assist policy makers, government officials, evaluators and researchers working in tobacco control and disease prevention, to base their decisions on the latest scientific evidence.
Perguntas e Respostas sobre a Lei da Reforma Trabalhista
Cerca de 200 (duzentas) personalidades do Direito do Trabalho e de reconhecida competência que aceitaram a missão de elaborar uma pergunta e uma resposta de algum dos temas atingidos pela reforma e minirreforma trabalhistas. A divisão da obra se deu, aliás, de acordo com o tipo de questionamento enfrentado, ou seja, se referente ao direito individual, coletivo ou processual do trabalho.A novidades trazidas pela Lei da Reforma, assim como na Minirreforma Trabalhista, não são pacíficas. Ao revés, conforme se poderá notar ao longo desta obra, alguns dos coautores são mais entusiasmados com a nova legislação, ao passo que outros, nem tanto. E, assim, longe de tentar elogiar ou critic...
