A financeirização da Educação Superior brasileira
Em 2024, das 8.987 mil matrículas registradas no Ensino Superior brasileiro, 6.908 mil estão em instituições privadas, segundo o Mapa do Ensino Superior. Depois de uma queda de 5,8% no total de instituições de ensino superior no país em 2020, em virtude do impacto da pandemia da Covid-19, o setor voltou a crescer em 2021 com um aumento de 4,8% no total de IES. Com 87,8% das IES brasileiras, a rede privada cresceu 5,0%, contra de 3,0% de aumento na rede pública. A classe trabalhadora em busca de qualificação para inserção no mercado de trabalho é formada majoritariamente pelo Ensino Superior privado, oferecido em grande medida pela maior empresa de educação com operações no Brasil e capital aberto na Bolsa de Valores: o Grupo Kroton – Cogna Educacional. Com lógica de dominância financeira em que se produz cada vez mais mercadorias com o mínimo de custos e de investimentos no setor produtivo, o negócio da educação compromete as bases da emancipação humana e consolida a subserviência da classe trabalhadora às demandas do poder econômico. Neste livro discuto como esse fenômeno se torna possível e quais as suas repercussões mais preocupantes.
Mecanismos para combate do trabalho análogo ao escravo no Brasil
A presente dissertação trata do trabalho análogo ao da escravidão como contrariedade da dignidade da pessoa humana, levando em conta os critérios de sua erradicação com a análise das políticas internas de contenção. Analisam-se todos os meios utilizados para o combate a esse tipo de trabalho. Realiza-se estudo do Termo de Ajustamento de Conduta (TAC) que as vinícolas Aurora, Salton e Garibaldi celebraram com o Ministério Público do Trabalho (MPT) após terem sido flagradas beneficiando-se de trabalho análogo ao de escravo. Utiliza-se o método hipotético-dedutivo, com revisão bibliográfica, indicação da legislação e jurisprudência pertinentes. Os resultados atingidos com a pesquisa foram demonstrar que os mecanismos jurídicos existentes no ordenamento jurídico brasileiro não são completamente eficazes para combater o trabalho análogo ao da escravidão, embora, em algumas circunstâncias, como aquela verificada na Serra Gaúcha, tenha obtido êxito em pôr fim àquela forma de exploração.
The Atlantic Forest
The Atlantic Forest is one of the 36 hotspots for biodiversity conservation worldwide. It is a unique, large biome (more than 3000 km in latitude; 2500 in longitude), marked by high biodiversity, high degree of endemic species and, at the same time, extremely threatened. Approximately 70% of the Brazilian population lives in the area of this biome, which makes the conflict between biodiversity conservation and the sustainability of the human population a relevant issue. This book aims to cover: 1) the historical characterization and geographic variation of the biome; 2) the distribution of the diversity of some relevant taxa; 3) the main threats to biodiversity, and 4) possible opportunities to ensure the biodiversity conservation, and the economic and social sustainability. Also, it is hoped that this book can be useful for those involved in the development of public policies aimed at the conservation of this important global biome.
Bariatric and Metabolic Surgery
Bariatric and Metabolic Surgery is recognized to be an important and effective option for the treatment of severe obesity and the various associated conditions and diseases. This book presents state of the art knowledge on such surgery with the aim of facilitating the sharing and exchange of knowledge, documenting effective techniques, and enhancing safety and outcomes. All technical aspects are covered in detail, and the text is complemented by many helpful illustrations. A further key feature is the provision of accompanying surgical videos, which will be of value to both novice and experienced surgeons. This textbook will be a great asset in clinical practice for all who are involved or interested in bariatric and metabolic surgery.
Ecology and Conservation of the Maned Wolf
Wolves are controversial figures worldwide and much effort has focused on how to conserve them while addressing public concerns. With its solitary habits and fruit-eating diet, the endangered maned wolf roams the South American grasslands and swamps, playing a vital part in maintaining biodiversity hotspots. Compared to the grey wolf, little is known about its relationship with local people and the environment and the reasons for its decline, making research about this unique species an urgent concern. Ecology and Conservation of the Maned Wolf: Multidisciplinary Perspectives gathers the work of leading researchers from diverse disciplines and countries, covering up-to-date research on the b...
World Congress on Communication For Development
"Communication for Development is a multidisciplinary area of study and work that is based on two-way models of communication, going beyond diffusion and dissemination of information. Its functions range from engaging stakeholders in problem analysis and risk assessment to supporting behavior and social change. The experiences recounted here are drawn from the various sessions of the Congress and emphasize the value of using Communication for Development to engage stakeholders in a professional and systematic manner for more effective and sustainable project design and implementation."--BOOK JACKET.
Safety and Quality Issues in Fish Processing
The processing and supply of fish products is a huge global business. Like other sectors of the food industry it depends on providing products which are both safe and which meet consumers' increasingly demanding requirements for quality. With its distinguished editor and international team of contributors, Safety and quality issues in fish processing addresses these two central questions.Part one looks at ways of ensuring safe products. There are 3 chapters on the key issue of applying HACCP systems in an increasingly international supply chain. These are complemented by chapters on identifying and controlling key hazards from pathogens and allergens to heavy metals, parasites and toxins. Pa...
Coevolution of Animals and Plants
It has long been recognized that plants and animals profoundly affect one another’s characteristics during the course of evolution. However, the importance of coevolution as a dynamic process involving such diverse factors as chemical communication, population structure and dynamics, energetics, and the evolution, structure, and functioning of ecosystems has been widely recognized for a comparatively short time. Coevolution represents a point of view about the structure of nature that only began to be fully explored in the late twentieth century. The papers presented here herald its emergence as an important and promising field of biological research. Coevolution of Animals and Plants is t...
The Governance of Privacy
This book was published in 2003.This book offers a broad and incisive analysis of the governance of privacy protection with regard to personal information in contemporary advanced industrial states. Based on research across many countries, it discusses the goals of privacy protection policy and the changing discourse surrounding the privacy issue, concerning risk, trust and social values. It analyzes at length the contemporary policy instruments that together comprise the inventory of possible solutions to the problem of privacy protection. It argues that privacy protection depends upon an integration of these instruments, but that any country's efforts are inescapably linked with the actions of others that operate outside its borders. The book concludes that, in a ’globalizing’ world, this regulatory interdependence could lead either to a search for the highest possible standard of privacy protection, or to competitive deregulation, or to a more complex outcome reflecting the nature of the issue and its policy responses.
