O presente livro busca oferecer uma resposta ao tratamento ético e jurídico dos animais no sistema legal brasileiro. Para tanto, efetua-se uma busca semântica pelo conceito de animal, suscitando a multiplicidade de interpretações que a temática possui. Posteriormente, o trabalho analisa as respostas tradicionais à questão do tratamento dos animais, em especial as respostas abolicionistas e "bem-estaristas", além do viés kantiano. Por fim, é apresentada ao leitor uma alternativa inovadora para o tratamento dos animais: a consideração emergentista/funcionalista de animais inseridos no contexto de ecologia da vida.
Acachapante. Talvez seja a melhor qualificação que se pode dar à quantidade de material didático e paradidático em Direito no Brasil. O resultado desse volume de produção é pasmoso. Deixa profissionais do Direito e, sobretudo estudantes de Direito, aturdidos. Uma área do conhecimento que ainda usa termos como dogmática e doutrina – sendo que se referem a ideias não passivas de refutação – gera, inclusive, perda de credibilidade. A Ciência Jurídica há́ muito não é mais protagonista ante a áreas afins. Há espaço para a produção de literatura científica, na maioria das vezes interdisciplinar, dialogando com novas tecnologias, no Direito hoje? Pensamos que sim. A Col...
Sexo, gênero e sexualidade atravessam o Direito contemporâneo a partir das reivindicações por reconhecimento de uma diversidade de sujeitos e movimentos sociais. Diante das indagações e denúncias formuladas por essas mobilizações, o Direito Privado não pode se furtar de refletir criticamente sobre seus pressupostos teóricos e suas práticas. A presente obra tem por tarefa interpelar a Teoria Geral do Direito Privado com os debates sobre direitos suscitados por mulheres e pessoas transexuais, travestis, homossexuais, lésbicas, bissexuais, intersexuais e outros dissidentes da cisheteronormatividade. A investigação parte fundamentalmente dos aportes queer e feministas, transversai...

This book presents the bold and original proposal to replace the general appellation of 'world cinema' with the more substantive concept of 'realist cinema'. Veering away from the usual focus on modes of reception and spectatorship, it locates instead cinematic realism in the way films are made. The volume is structured across three innovative categories of realist modes of production: 'non-cinema', or a cinema that aspires to be life itself; 'intermedial passages', or films that incorporate other artforms as a channel to historical and political reality; and 'total cinema', or films moved by a totalising impulse, be it towards the total artwork, total history or universalising landscapes. Though mostly devoted to recent productions, each part starts with the analysis of foundational classics, which have paved the way for future realist endeavours, proving that realism is timeless and inherent in cinema from its origin.
