Civil Procedure in Brazil

  • Categories: Law

Derived from the renowned multi-volume International Encyclopaedia of Laws, this convenient volume provides comprehensive analysis of the legislation and rules that determine civil procedure and practice in Brazil. Lawyers who handle transnational matters will appreciate the book’s clear explanation of distinct terminology and application of rules. The structure follows the classical chapters of a handbook on civil procedure: beginning with the judicial organization of the courts, jurisdiction issues, a discussion of the various actions and claims, and then moving to a review of the proceedings as such. These general chapters are followed by a discussion of the incidents during proceedings...

Brazil in the Geopolitics of Amazonia and Antarctica

From a pioneering perspective, the book contributes to the state-of-the-art contemporary Geopolitics by bringing together Amazonia and Antarctica in a single interdisciplinary volume. Three key issues are 1) the interconnectedness between these vital regions, 2) non-linearity, because they may lead to unpredictable effects on the Earth system, and; 3) emergence, which means the varied interactions between Amazonia and Antarctica may lead to unique results.

Audible Geographies in Latin America

Audible Geographies in Latin America examines the audibility of place as a racialized phenomenon. It argues that place is not just a geographical or political notion, but also a sensorial one, shaped by the specific profile of the senses engaged through different media. Through a series of cases, the book examines racialized listening criteria and practices in the formation of ideas about place at exemplary moments between the 1890s and the 1960s. Through a discussion of Louis Moreau Gottschalk’s last concerts in Rio de Janeiro, and a contemporary sound installation involving telegraphs by Otávio Schipper and Sérgio Krakowski, Chapter 1 proposes a link between a sensorial economy and a p...

Elite Perceptions of Poverty and Inequality

The researchers who have written this volume are clear not only that mass poverty is still the leading humanitarian crisis in developing countries, but that, if effective policies are to be put in place, the national elites who control governments and economies need to be convinced of both the reasons why reducing poverty is in their own and the national interest, and that public action can make a difference. Remarkably, in the rapidly growing literature on poverty, this volume is the first to use survey techniques to explore Third World elites' attitudes to poverty. Five cases - intended to be broadly representative of the diversity of situations in developing countries - were chosen: Brazi...

Policing Sport Mega-Events

  • Categories: Law

Security has become one of the most important aspects of sport mega-event organisation. This book explores how Rio de Janeiro was imagined and transformed into a security fortress when the 2014 Men's World Cup and the 2016 Olympics came to the city and how the fortress was nonetheless permeable and porous. Dennis Pauschinger experienced exceptional backstage access at high level in the Brazilian mega-event security architecture as well as at street level with the local public security sphere. His ethnographic account takes us from the hidden world of surveillance and control centres, to the security perimeters around stadiums, and to the mundane routine of police officers during day and nigh...

A inversão do ônus da prova no direito ambiental e o princípio da precaução

  • Categories: Law

A inversão do ônus da prova no Direito Ambiental apresenta algumas particularidades que a diferenciam do tratamento dado em outras áreas do Direito e que permitiriam questionar se os critérios utilizados são adequados para atingir a finalidade da ação processual, ou seja, a efetividade do direito tutelado em matéria ambiental. É nesse sentido que a presente obra busca compreender a forma através da qual a inversão do ônus da prova é aplicada nas ações processuais de caráter ambiental na busca pela efetividade dos direitos jurídico-ambientalmente tutelados no Brasil.

‘‘ Uma beatitude transversaliza o livro de Bruno Vasconcelos de Almeida, de modo que ela vai sofrendo sutis mudanças em sua própria natureza a cada novo encontro, a cada nova máquina e/ou agenciamento. Essa essencial alterabilidade clínica da beatitude vai se distribuindo neste livro através de três grandes linhas de modulação, sejam aquelas advindas de virtuais e atuais, sejam as de conceitos que o autor mobiliza em companhia de Espinosa, Nietzsche, Deleuze e de outros, seja no decurso, na dimensão que se poderia dizer mais linear do trabalho, que levaria ao desfecho em que ela aparece de modo mais explícito no capítulo 5. Ele evidencia o quanto o autor participa de modalidad...
