From Conquest to Colony
A new history of Brazil’s eighteenth century that foregrounds debates about wealth, difference, and governance Transformations in Portugal and Brazil followed the discovery of gold in Brazil’s hinterland and the hinterland’s subsequent settlement. Although earlier conquests and evangelizations had incorporated new lands and peoples into the monarchy, royal officials now argued that the extraction of gold and the imperatives of rivalry and commerce demanded new approaches to governance to ensure that Brazil’s wealth flowed to Portugal and into imperial networks of exchange. Using archival records of royal and local administrations, as well as contemporary print culture, Kirsten Schult...
Bioprospection of Co-products and Agro-industrial Wastes
The proposed book titled as “Bioprospection of Coproducts and Agro-industrial Wastes: A Sustainable Biotechnological Approach”, seeks to offer the importance of the recycling, reuse of food residue, byproducts of fruits and agri-wastes to the academic community and industries. In developing countries facing malnutrition and environmental problems, this book would be very useful. The food waste and the residues resulting from this process are now becoming environmental problems. These mainly include leaves, stems, seeds, bark, and roots that have high nutritional value, many times even greater than the part usually consumed. It is a pressing priority to reuse and recycle the waste which is detrimental to the environment. This book would be an essential reading for students, researchers, and people from the food and pharma industry.

REPERCUSSÕES JURÍDICAS DO HOME OFFICE
O momento singular que o Mundo testemunha trouxe consigo desafios de toda ordem. O desencadeamento de medidas uniformes em todos os continentes ante o que se convencionou nominar “pandemia da COVID-19”, impôs o enfrentamento de embaraços imprevisíveis até últimos meses do ano de 2019. Retração econômica, desemprego, redução na arrecadação de tributos, sobrecarga no sistema de saúde e limitação ao direito de ir e vir foram as principais dificuldades. As soluções, das diversas naturezas, mostraram-se satisfatórias, particularmente considerando o exíguo tempo de que se dispunha para executá-las, de forma a minorar os efeitos das medidas restritivas adotadas pelo Poder P...
