"O trabalho transforma o mundo e faz o homem. Não existe objeto jurídico mais relevante para o homem livre do que a sua aptidão para o trabalho, porque é pelo trabalho que se realizam os projetos de vida pessoal, que se conquista uma existência com dignidade e que se constrói uma Nação. O respeito aos valores sociais do trabalho forma a base do nosso projeto de sociedade (CF, art. 1º, IV). Esses valores demarcam a relevância do Direito do Trabalho nas sociedades democráticas e justificam as melhores atenções legislativas na construção de um aparato normativo que sirva ao equilíbrio entre as suas fragilidades e a sua importância. O estudo do Direito do Trabalho requer tempo e...
'NDiaye is a hypnotic storyteller with an unflinching understanding of the rock-bottom reality of most people's life.' New York Times ' One of France's most exciting prose stylists.' The Guardian. Obsessed by her encounters with the mysterious green women, and haunted by the Garonne River, a nameless narrator seeks them out in La Roele, Paris, Marseille, and Ouagadougou. Each encounter reveals different aspects of the women; real or imagined, dead or alive, seductive or suicidal, driving the narrator deeper into her obsession, in this unsettling exploration of identity, memory and paranoia. Self Portrait in Green is the multi-prize winning, Marie NDiaye's brilliant subversion of the memoir. Written in diary entries, with lyrical prose and dreamlike imagery, we start with and return to the river, which mirrors the narrative by posing more questions than it answers.
A group of Koreans are making their way across a disease-ravaged landscape—but to what end? To the Warm Horizon shows how in a post-apocalyptic world, humans will still seek purpose, kinship, and even intimacy. Focusing on two young women, Jina and Dori, who find love against all odds, Choi Jin-young creates a dystopia where people are trying to find direction after having their worlds turned upside down. Lucidly translated from the Korean by Soje, this thoughtful yet gripping novel takes the reader on a journey through how people adjust, or fail to adjust, to catastrophe.
This book highlights the sustainability aspects of products and processes in forest science. The forest products sector supplies raw materials to several industrial sectors worldwide. These products can be classified as timber or non-timber products. Wood products are those that originate from the woody fraction and can include pulp, charcoal, firewood, and others.

Desde 2020, quando nosso primeiro livro sobre Employer Branding foi publicado, o assunto avançou em literatura, pesquisa e prática. Ainda que jovem, especialmente no mercado brasileiro, ganhou espaço em cargos nas empresas, em orçamento para projetos e em interesse acadêmico, pela ideia de trabalhar a marca de uma organização com foco específico no talento. Os desafios que se apresentaram de lá para cá, incluindo a pandemia da Covid-19 e todos os seus impactos no mundo do trabalho, obrigaram o Employer Branding a amadurecer. Isso aconteceu em parte porque as lacunas entre o discurso e a prática das organizações em relação às pessoas ficaram ainda mais evidentes e, em parte, p...

Once a quiet town known for its lush gardens and swimming pools, the “City of Eternal Spring” is now plagued by robberies, kidnappings, and the other myriad ...
