Do discurso retórico da legalidade à legalidade como construção societária
"A legalidade, então, proporciona segurança e previsibilidade já que, de antemão, sabemos quais são os conteúdos normativos que regulam as condutas e permitem a classificação segura dos fatos e condutas. Em profusão, repontam os discursos que projetam a imagem de uma ordem totalmente voltada à proteção de todos. Para conseguir operar todos os efeitos faz-se mister expungir, esconjurar toda ambivalência, todos os "ruídos" que possam ameaçar o pomposo e imponente edifício da legalidade e da unidade. Uma sociedade materialmente heterogênea e crispada por contradições necessita de mitos e ficções que a projetem numa imagem ideal de ordem em que todas as discrepâncias sejam desarmadas, escondendo e negando os conflitos em que se debate. A legalidade sociomórfica é, pois, um mito operante. De um lado, uma univocidade propalada como imagem da aplicação do direito; de outro, a conjuração dos ruídos que se embutem na criação jurisprudencial do direito onde se oculta o voluntarismo irracionalista."

Death Is a Festival
This award-winning social history of death and funeral rites during the early decades of Brazil's independence from Portugal focuses on the Cemiterada movement in Salvador, capital of the province of Bahia. The book opens with a lively account of the popular riot that ensued when, in 1836, the government condemned the traditional burial of bodies inside Catholic church buildings and granted a private company a monopoly over burials. This episode is used by Reis to examine the customs of death and burial in Bahian society, explore the economic and religious conflicts behind the move for funerary reforms and the maintenance of traditional rituals of dying, and understand how people dealt with new concerns sparked by modernization and science. Viewing culture within its social context, he illuminates the commonalities and differences that shaped death and its rituals for rich and poor, men and women, slaves and masters, adults and children, foreigners and Brazilians. This translation makes the book, originally published in Brazil in 1993, available in English for the first time.
The Ocean and Cryosphere in a Changing Climate
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) is the leading international body for assessing the science related to climate change. It provides policymakers with regular assessments of the scientific basis of human-induced climate change, its impacts and future risks, and options for adaptation and mitigation. This IPCC Special Report on the Ocean and Cryosphere in a Changing Climate is the most comprehensive and up-to-date assessment of the observed and projected changes to the ocean and cryosphere and their associated impacts and risks, with a focus on resilience, risk management response options, and adaptation measures, considering both their potential and limitations. It brings together knowledge on physical and biogeochemical changes, the interplay with ecosystem changes, and the implications for human communities. It serves policymakers, decision makers, stakeholders, and all interested parties with unbiased, up-to-date, policy-relevant information.

Specificity of Proteolysis
Specificity of Proteolysis presents a survey and conclusions on the action or proteinases - enzymes which are cleaving proteins or peptides. The specificity of proteinases which is determined as the sequence of amino acids at the cleavage site of a substrate, is an important criteria to choose an enzyme as tool in protein research. Whenever one is looking for an enzyme to act at a defined site or to give defined cleavage products one will find comprehensive information in this work. Comprehensive information about more than 280 endopeptidases which are based on the database LYSIS including a calculation program to determine cleavage sites, is given in the book.
The Iran-United States Claims Tribunal
The Iran-United States Claims Tribunal is arguably the most significant arbitral institution of the twentieth century. Although the completion of its last few cases could take a long time, the Tribunal's impressive work must be made available now as a guide to the resolution of ongoing disputes and for future tribunals. The Tribunal has, by this point, disposed of well over 98 percent of its caseload. Little more remains for its participants to learn, but the Tribunal shows no signs of fading away. Both of the two States Parties, for different reasons, see greater advantage in the Tribunal's prolongation than in its elimination. The authors have succeeded in dealing with all of the most deserving Tribunal subjects. Moreover, their intimate involvement in and knowledge of the Tribunal ensure that their book is a fascinating, important, and indispensable contribution to the literature of International Law. This is a definitive book on a monumental event in the law and in history at the close of a century. "The Iran-United States Claims Tribunal" was awarded the ASIL Certificate of Merit.
