Imprensa Amazonense
Neste meu novo projeto, uma série especial intitulada “Imprensa Amazonense”, trago a você alguns temas que movimentaram a cidade, ocorridos entre as décadas de 1950 e 1980, e que estiveram presentes praticamente todos os dias na vida dos manauaras, porque foram publicados nos principais jornais impressos do Estado e também pela grande repercussão no radiojornalismo amazonense. O livro que estará em suas mãos, o primeiro desta série, possui o subtítulo “Chantagem, Politicagem e Lama”, e começou, a priori, de uma simples ideia de transcrever a disputa entre o jornal A Notícia e o jornal A Crítica ocorrida em 1980. Entretanto, conforme as pesquisas foram sendo aprofundadas, ...
A Sétima Arte em Manaus
“A Sétima Arte em Manaus” é uma versão revisada, atualizada e ampliada do capítulo sobre cinemas que, originalmente, faz parte do livro “Manaus, entre o passado e o presente”, também de autoria do empresário, publicitário e pesquisador Durango Martins Duarte lançado em 2009. Ele traz a história do cinema na capital amazonense, desde as primeiras salas criadas no final do século XIX, passando pelas chegadas das empresas e das grandes redes, até os festivais realizados na cidade. Esta é a 10ª obra lançada por Durango Duarte e a primeira a ser produzida exclusivamente em formato digital.
José Osterne de Figueiredo
Nas décadas de 1950 e 1960, a cidade de Manaus foi aterrorizada por uma série de assassinatos que tinham sempre como denominador comum a presença de um personagem: o comerciante cearense José Osterne de Figueiredo. O primeiro caso foi a morte do biscateiro Anacleto Gama, ocorrido em 1953, seguido pelo assassínio do merceeiro Antônio Dias, em 1954, e finalizando com o estrangulamento do engraxate Walderglace Grangeiro, de 13 anos de idade, em 1968. Todos apresentavam características idênticas no modus operandi do(s) assassino(s), com requintes de sadismo e agressões sexuais, o que levou a se acreditar que existia um serial killer na cidade. A narrativa permite ainda ao leitor acompan...
The Cambridge Handbook of Immunities and International Law
Few topics of international law speak to the imagination as much as international immunities. Questions pertaining to immunity from jurisdiction or execution under international law surface on a frequent basis before national courts, including at the highest levels of the judicial branch and before international courts or tribunals. Nevertheless, international immunity law is and remains a challenging field for practitioners and scholars alike. Challenges stem in part from the uncertainty pertaining to the customary content of some immunity regimes said to be in a 'state of flux', the divergent – and at times directly conflicting - approaches to immunity in different national and international jurisdictions, or the increasing intolerance towards impunity that has accompanied the advance of international criminal law and human rights law. Composed of thirty-four expertly written contributions, the present volume uniquely provides a comprehensive tour d'horizon of international immunity law, traversing a wealth of national and international practice.
Handbook of Research on Digital Violence and Discrimination Studies
Digital violence continues to increase, especially during times of crisis. Racism, bullying, ageism, sexism, child pornography, cybercrime, and digital tracking raise critical social and digital security issues that have lasting effects. Digital violence can cause children to be dragged into crime, create social isolation for the elderly, generate inter-communal conflicts, and increase cyber warfare. A closer study of digital violence and its effects is necessary to develop lasting solutions. The Handbook of Research on Digital Violence and Discrimination Studies introduces the current best practices, laboratory methods, policies, and protocols surrounding international digital violence and discrimination. Covering a range of topics such as abuse and harassment, this major reference work is ideal for researchers, academicians, policymakers, practitioners, professionals, instructors, and students.

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.
