In October 2018 Brazilians elected Jair Bolsonaro as their new president. A former army officer who served under the military dictatorship, Bolsonaro has spent his political career campaigning against democracy and human rights. His notoriety comes from his repeated racist, sexist and homophobic statements and his defense of torture, extra-judicial executions and impunity for Brazil´s security forces. Bolsonaro is sometimes described as a “Tropical Trump.” But this wording greatly underestimates the threat that he poses to Brazil´s still young and fragile democratic institutions. In Spite of You brings together voices of the new Brazilian resistance. It includes chapters by Dilma Rouss...

The World Almanac of Islamism 2019

Now in its fourth edition, The World Almanac of Islamism is the first comprehensive reference work to detail the current activities of radical Islamist movements worldwide. The contributions, written by subject expert, provide up-to-date assessments on the contemporary Islamist threat in all countries and regions where it exists. Each country study will include valuable metrics for gauging the advance or decline of Islamism. In places where Islamists are not in power, these include year-on-year comparisons of the number of terrorist attacks that have taken place, the level of popular support being received by radical religious organizations and political parties, and applicable government responses to these trends, if any. In places where they are in power, metrics encompass relevant changes to domestic human rights practices and social conditions, foreign policy rhetoric and action, and the overall stability of the state.

Sugarcane Labor Migration in Brazil

This book examines the experiences of seasonal, migrant sugarcane workers in Brazil, analyzing the deep-seated inequalities pervasive in contemporary Brazil. Education, employment, income, health, and relative political power are forefront in this study of the living and working conditions of the transient population. Based on ten years of qualitative research dominated by in-depth interviews with migrant sugarcane workers, this project argues that the ills of the sugarcane industry are symptomatic of an overarching problem of unequal access to opportunities by all Brazilian citizens. The project is unique in its use of a single industry as an expression of the multifarious problems of socioeconomic, regional, and racial inequality. The author explores details of the labor migration experience with a central premise that the conditions are not a direct outcome of the industry, but rather a manifestation of fundamental inequalities rooted in Brazil’s colonial history.

Brasil

La entrada en prisión de Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva el 7 de abril de 2018 dio la vuelta al mundo y acaparó la atención de los principales medios de comunicación y redes sociales. No era para menos. El que fue uno de los jefes de Estado más populares del planeta, cuyo liderazgo inspiró a numerosos países, terminaba en la cárcel con una condena de 12 años por corrupción. Los seguidores de la escena política brasileña reaccionaron con estupefacción y sorpresa: ¿cómo ha podido una figura como Lula acabar en la cárcel? ¿Cómo, en tan poco tiempo, el “país del futuro”, que crecía a buen ritmo y con políticas que parecían agradar a una gran mayoría, se desplomó con tanta ...

Fundamentos da Lei Anticorrupção da Pessoa Jurídica

  • Categories: Law

O fenômeno da corrupção, utilizando-se das benesses do mundo globalizado, tornou-se um problema mundial. Nesse contexto, as pessoas jurídicas acabam sendo utilizadas como instrumento para prática de condutas ilícitas, principalmente, as corruptas. A legislação brasileira, atenta a isso, concentrou esforços para que essas entidades também fossem responsabilizadas pelos atos praticados por seus prepostos, bem como criou estímulos para que fossem estruturados programas de compliance, com investigações internas para prevenir, identificar e facilitar a punição dos autores de atos corruptos. Nesse primeiro volume da coleção Integritate, estudam-se os fundamentos da Lei Anticorrup...
