Democratic Brazil

After 21 years of military rule, Brazil returned to democracy in 1985. Over the past decade and a half, Brazilians in the Nova Repœblica (New Republic) have struggled with a range of diverse challenges that have tested the durability and quality of the young democracy. How well have they succeeded? To what extent can we say that Brazilian democracy has consolidated? What actors, institutions, and processes have emerged as most salient over the past 15 years? Although Brazil is Latin America's largest country, the world's third largest democracy, and a country with a population and GNP larger than Yeltsin's Russia, more than a decade has passed since the last collaborative effort to examine ...

Vocação e missão de catequista
  • Language: pt-BR
  • Pages: 137

Vocação e missão de catequista

O ministério é um serviço oficial que a Igreja entrega a catequistas bem-preparados tanto no conhecimento como no testemunho de vida que são chamados a oferecer. Isto requer a preparação e a compreensão de que se trata de um caminho permanente de crescimento, de participação, de vivência tanto dentro quanto fora do espaço da comunidade, de comunhão fraterna, de testemunho comunicativo da fé. Cada capítulo desta obra aborda um aspecto dessa missão propondo uma reflexão para ajudar o catequista a crescer no conhecimento, mas também para olhar melhor a própria vida, percebendo que, ao ser catequista, educa outros na fé, mas, igualmente, cresce na caminhada com Jesus e na capacidade de contribuir para colocar em ação os valores do Reino de Deus.

Health and Development

Health and Development

Health and development require one another: there can be no development without a critical mass of people who are sufficiently healthy to do whatever it takes for development to occur, and people cannot be healthy without societal developments that enable standards of health to be maintained or improved. However, the ways in which health and development interact are complex and contested. This volume unites eleven case studies from nine countries in three continents and two international organizations since the late-nineteenth century. Collectively, they show how different actors have struggled to reconcile the sometimes contradictory nature of health and development policies, and the subordination of these policies to a range of political objectives.

Pastoral Urbana - Práticas e Desafios

O presente livro recolhe reflexões de especialistas que se debruçam sobre os desafios da pastoral urbana. Agrupamos os textos visando uma progressão de assuntos: dos teóricos, conceituais, para os mais práticos e propositivos. Mesmo com a consciência de que tal ordenamento dos capítulos, muitas vezes, não atende a rigidez imaginável entre teoria e prática, buscamos, primeiro, enfatizar os fundamentos bíblicos e teológicos da pastoral urbana e, no segundo momento, os caminhos possíveis de uma pastoral urbana à luz de situações concretas.

David Tombs offers an accessible introduction to the theological challenges raised by Latin American Liberation and a new contribution to how these challenges might be understood as a chronological sequence. Liberation theology emerged in the 1960s in Latin America and thrived until it reached a crisis in the 1990s. This work traces the distinct developments in thought through the decades, thus presenting a contextual theology. The book is divided into five main sections: the historical role of the church from Columbus’s arrival in 1492 until the Cuban revolution of 1959; the reform and renewal decade of the 1960s; the transitional decade of the 1970s; the revision and redirection of liberation theology in the 1980s; and a crisis of relevance in the 1990s. This book offers insights into liberation theology’s profound contributions for any socially engaged theology of the future and is crucial to understanding liberation theology and its legacies. This publication has also been published in paperback, please click here for details.

Religious studies and research have gained a lot of interest and attention from researchers, policy makers, and practitioners over the last few years, but the socio-economic impacts have not been explored. Taking into account the profound economic impact the tourism and hospitality industries can have on regions and cities around the world, further research in this area is critical to analyze the extent of such impact and the ramifications that are associated with it. The Handbook of Research on Socio-Economic Impacts of Religious Tourism and Pilgrimage is a pivotal reference source that provides vital research on the social and economic factors in faith-based journeys. While highlighting topics such as tourist spending, spiritual tourism, and local development, this publication explores religious tourism in the middle age, as well as the methods of modern religious tourism. This book is ideally designed for business managers, cultural preservationists, academicians, business professionals, entrepreneurs, and upper-level students seeking current research on religious tourism and its socio-economic impacts.
