Film and Democracy in Paraguay
This book is dedicated to the study of Paraguayan film, particularly small cinemas and movies which represent a socio-politically charged perspective that has until now been overlooked in Latin American Studies. Romero demonstrates that these films are critical to understanding the dynamics of politics and cultural identity in Latin America as a whole. An in-depth exploration of the Latin American post-dictatorial transition of power Romero investigates this contemporary crisis through the dynamics of race, class, gender, and sexuality. Each chapter takes a film or films as its jumping off point, then zooms out to encompass elements of the national political, economic, social, and historical context. Romero analyzes some of the most pressing social issues in Paraguay while reflecting on the power of cultural discourse through film.

IDENTIFICAÇÃO DOS PRECEDENTES JUDICIAIS
As principais dificuldades na aplicação dos Precedentes Judiciais, tais como sua força vinculante, forma de composição e modalidades de flexibilização, vão além do que previa o projeto inicial do Código de Processo Civil brasileiro. Muitas obras tratam do tema de forma exemplar, em especial quanto sua vinculatividade.

Antes de longas discussões sobre a forma de atuar a superação de precedentes, muitas outras formas de flexibili...

Estado e ideologia
O Estado normalmente aparece na figura do Presidente da República, dos Ministros, das Forças Armadas, da polícia, dos deputados, do poder judiciário, das repartições públicas etc. Porém o Estado não são esses elementos empiricamente concretos e separados. Sua essência e unidade, na verdade, são invisíveis aos sentidos do corpo. O que é o Estado, então?
