INTRODUCTION ENVIRONMENT AND CITIZENSHIP The environmental issues in the contemporary world are no longer limited to the private sector or public sector. Industry, commerce and governments are no longer the only agents interacting within the environment discussion. The current laws are not based on protection and essential attention on environmental issues and require the participation of an agent of paramount importance: the citizen. According to the dictionary, citizen is a person who is a member of a country and has rights or any performance of their duties to a state. The environmental problems that lead every day on our street, neighborhood, city, state, country, world and finally in ou...
APRESENTAÇÃO MEIO AMBIENTE E CIDADANIA As questões ambientais no mundo contemporâneo já não mais dizem respeito somente ao setor produtivo ou ao setor público. A indústria, o comércio e os governos já não podem mais, serem os únicos agentes a interagir dentro do cenário de discussão sobre o meio ambiente. As leis existentes por si só não sustentam a proteção e atenção indispensável sobre as questões ambientais o que demanda a participação de um agente de suma importância: o cidadão. Segundo o dicionário Aurélio cidadão é o indivíduo no gozo dos direitos civis e políticos de um Estado, ou no desempenho de seus deveres para com este. Os problemas ambientais que ...

This clinical casebook is comprised of surgical cases involving the most important cardiovascular diseases in a concise, easy-to-read format (5x8 in trim size, like other titles in this burgeoning, informal product line in the Springer clinical medicine program). Each chapter is a case that opens with a unique clinical presentation, followed by a description of the diagnosis, assessment and management techniques used to treat it, as well as questions and answers (between 8 and 10) about relevant aspects related to the diagnosis and treatment of the addressed disease. The Q&A section will broaden discussion and increase the title's pedagogical value. The casebook features 40 surgical cases in...
The World Justice Project (WJP) joins efforts to produce reliable data on rule of law through the WJP Rule of Law Index 2016, the sixth report in an annual series, which measures rule of law based on the experiences and perceptions of the general public and in-country experts worldwide. We hope this annual publication, anchored in actual experiences, will help identify strengths and weaknesses in each country under review and encourage policy choices that strengthen the rule of law. The WJP Rule of Law Index 2016 presents a portrait of the rule of law in each country by providing scores and rankings organized around eights factors: constraints on government powers, absence of corruption, ope...
Givon's new book re-casts pragmatics, and most conspicuously the pragmatics of sociality and communication, in neuro-cognitive, bio-adaptive, evolutionary terms. The fact that context, the core notion of pragmatics, is a framing operation undertaken on the fly through judgements of relevance, has been well known since Aristotle, Kant and Peirce. But the context that is relevant to the pragmatics of sociality and communication is a highly specific mental operation the mental modeling of the interlocutor's current, rapidly shifting belief-and-intention states. The construed context of social interaction and communication is thus a mental representation of other minds. Following a condensed ...
O livro está organizado em quatro blocos que reagrupam dezesseis capítulos, elaborados com a participação de mais de meia centena de autores para, de uma forma sequencial, olhar a temática da avaliação em saúde de diferentes ângulos e pontos de vista – os aspectos conceituais que constroem e sustentam a articulação entre os temas; os usos desses conceitos nas pesquisas avaliativas em saúde; a relação entre esses temas e gestão de projetos em saúde; e experiências de estudos avaliativos e as redes sociotécnicas, realçando a relevância da interligação da avaliação em saúde às redes sociotécnicas e à transferência de conhecimentos, como desafios para a construção participativa da Saúde Global. O livro se afigura de interesse tanto para os estudiosos da área acadêmica e técnicos da avaliação em saúde quanto para o fortalecimento dos sujeitos dos processos de saúde, com ênfase para a compreensão dos processos e mecanismos de transferência de conhecimento que informam a tomada de decisão. — António Pedro Delgado Médico, mestre em Saúde Pública e doutor em Saúde Internacional Professor na Universidade de Cabo Verde
