The Regional Impact of National Policies
Brazil is a country of continental proportions whose gross domestic product is unevenly distributed among its various regions. The impact of general domestic economic policies has often been perceived as not being regionally neutral, but as reinforcing the geographic concentration of economic activities. This detailed book examines the regional impact of such general policies as: industrialization, agricultural modernization, privatization, stabilization, science and technology, labor, and foreign direct investment. Written by recognized and respected scholars, this book fills a significant gap in the current literature on regional development in Brazil. Researchers and students in economics, economic history, political science and regional studies, and others interested in the economics of transition to a market system will find this comprehensive collection an invaluable resource.
Cenários e Perspectivas
Publicar um livro que realiza uma síntese das questões trabalhadas nos 30 anos de um Programa de Pós-graduação em Planejamento Urbano e Regional (PPGPLUR) é algo bastante desafiador e um tanto quanto “injusto”, pois a amplitude das discussões certamente não será alcançada neste volume. No entanto, o grupo de professores e alunos do PPGPLUR da Univap, em seu VIII Seminário, realizado em março de 2023, deliberou pelo enfrentamento desse desafio. Sabe-se que, de 1993 a 2023, esse Programa enfrentou um cenário ainda de consolidação democrática, em que a política urbana brasileira foi reconstruída por discussões que envolveram diferentes profissionais: arquitetos e urbanist...

Economic Analysis of Suicide Prevention
This book examines the causes and consequences of suicide from the perspective of economics. The approach here differs from those in medical, psychiatric, epidemiological, and sociological studies of suicide and is thus novel in a way that highlights the importance of economic and institutional settings in the problem of suicide. The authors argue that suicide imposes a tremendous economic cost on contemporary society in a variety of ways, requiring the government to develop an effective prevention strategy. An empirical analysis using data from Japan and other developed countries shows that natural disasters and economic crises increase suicide rates, while liberal government policies favor...

Responsabilidade Civil, Gênero e Sexualidades - 1a Ed - 2024
"A partir da consideração de que a sexualidade é uma característica humana inafastável, evidencia-se a existência de uma enorme gama de situações em que aspectos vinculados ao sexo, gênero, orientação sexual e identidade de gênero estão na base de condutas ensejadoras de responsabilidade civil, razão pela qual tal obra se mostra tão necessária e pertinente, ainda mais nos tempos atuais, sobretudo em razão dos danos sofridos refletirem o espectro de forte discriminação e opressão. Todas as pessoas têm a sua vivência em sociedade tangenciada pelos elementos que lhe são caracterizadores, o que descortina que as dissidências sexuais de forma recorrente suportam diversas s...
