Politics and Racism Beyond Nations
This book brings together theoretical knowledge from diverse fields as anthropology, biology, neurology, peace studies, political science, psychology, and sociology to address key challenges that transcend borders. It demonstrates how differences are created on many levels to reveal how the “othering project” is evident through national policies of immigration, through aspiring nationalisms, through genocidal inhumanity, and the subsequent effects of such othering evident in racial trauma. It further argues that we cannot limit our understanding of racism to forms of “white nationalism” or “whiteness movements” in the developed world and regions but look to the global formulation of such discrimination in colonial histories. The book introduces each chapter by providing rich ethnographic narratives from informants based upon the author’s research on nationalism, racism, genocide, terrorism, trauma, scientific tolerance, and love and peace as well as some auto-ethnographic narratives from the author’s research on these themes.
De-Commemoration
In the wake of recent protests against police violence and racism, calls to dismantle problematic memorials have reverberated around the globe. This is not a new phenomenon, however, nor is it limited to the Western world. De-Commemoration focuses on the concept of de-commemoration as it relates to remembrance. Drawing on research from experts on memory dynamics across various disciplines, this extensive collection seeks to make sense of the current state of de-commemoration as it transforms contemporary societies around the world.
O que vi dos presidentes
Com seu olhar jornalístico sempre apurado e dedicado, Cristiana Lôbo traçou o perfil dos presidentes brasileiros que permeiam a história do Brasil desde o início do processo de redemocratização. Não como um livro de história ou relatos, mas como uma narrativa do que viu e acompanhou no desenvolvimento da política brasileira através da personalidade de seus presidentes. Para este livro, ela se propôs a reavivar a memória, a remexer nos bloquinhos de anotações e a conversar, conversar muito com todos que pudessem lhe ajudar a resgatar fatos, versões e causos reveladores da personalidade dos presidentes. Estas páginas reúnem os acontecimentos mais relevantes de todos os governos a partir de 1985, focando na política, mas, sobretudo, no que Cristiana observou do comportamento e da personalidade dos mandatários.

Constitutional Erosion in Brazil
This book provides a fascinating analysis of a single jurisdiction, Brazil, and accounts for both the successes and the failures of its most recent constitutional project, inaugurated by the Constitution of 1988. It sets out the following aspects of the constitutional development and erosion: - the different phases of the promised transition from military rule to a 'social-democratic constitutionalism'; - the obstacles to democratisation derived from the absence of true institutional reforms in the judicial branch and in the civil-military relationship; - the legal and social practices which maintained a structure that obstructed the emergence of an effective social-democracy, such as the ne...
