FLEEING PERSECUTION
In a world that still persecutes, marginalises and discriminates LGBTQI+ individuals, and where asylum seekers and refugees are denied rights and have their basic humanity violated, this publication intends to understand the asylum policies the German government develops specifically tailored to the needs of LGBTQI+ asylum seekers and refugees and whether the literature has addressed the implementation of such policies across the European continent. LGBTQI+ asylum is a rather new field of research. Among the European states, Germany has been more open to asylum than other states in the continent and has received the world's highest number of asylum seekers between 2010 and 2019, which justif...
The Role of Primary Motor Cortex as a Marker for and Modulator of Pain Control and Emotional-Affective Processing
The sensory and motor cortical homunculi proposed by Walter Penfield were a major landmark for the anatomical mapping of the brain. More than 60 years after, the development of new tools to investigate brain function non-invasively has increased our knowledge about the structure and functions of the primary motor Cortex (M1) beyond motor control in both humans and animals. This book highlights the role of the motor cortex that goes way beyond motor functioning. We were interested in both theoretical and empirical contributions related to electrophysiological, pharmacological, neuroimaging, and neuromodulatory studies exploring the role of M1 on non-motor functions, such as pain, abnormal neuroplasticity that may lead to chronic pain conditions; or the relationship between M1 and mental imagery or emotion. This book is comprised of 15 articles published in this edited volume as a research topic collection in Frontiers in Human Neuroscience titled “The Role of Primary Motor Cortex as a Marker and Modulator of Pain Control and Emotional-Affective Processing.”
Maldives
Maldives is a tourist dependent economy with a small financial sector dominated by state-owned banks. Protracted fiscal and external deficits have raised concerns about debt sustainability and the level of international reserves. Large government funding needs have resulted in a strong sovereign-bank nexus, and rationing of foreign exchange by the Maldives Monetary Authority (MMA) has fueled a parallel foreign exchange market.
The Pain Epidemic
Internationally-recognized pain expert Don Goldenberg helps readers better understand the intricacies of chronic pain through the lens of personal stories, including his own. One out of three Americans lives with chronic pain. Pain is the number one reason we seek medical care and accounts for 40% of doctor visits. Chronic pain is the most common cause of work loss world-wide. The yearly cost of chronic pain in the United States is between $560-$630 billion, higher than that of heart disease, diabetes and cancer combined. Despite this, physicians and the public are woefully ill-informed about chronic pain. The litany of self-help books available to the public are largely misleading, quick-fi...
Palavra e ação
A linguagem é peculiar. Ela é interpretável, espontânea e cultural. Capaz de descrever, expressar preferências e, até mesmo, transformar realidades. Ela marca presença nas negociações acaloradas em uma partida de esporte e, ao mesmo tempo, está nas deliberações solenes nos Tribunais. Nesse sentido, as decisões proferidas pelos magistrados são mais do que simples declarações. Elas podem constituir, desconstituir ou alterar uma realidade jurídica, conforme a interpretação dada à norma por cada um dos juízes. O que desperta a atenção da sociedade, especialmente em meio à democracia deliberativa. Por isso, este livro explora esse fenômeno tão cotidiano e, simultaneament...
Consumer Research Methods in Food Science
This volume details a wide range of consumer research methods from different disciplines with an application to food and beverages. Each chapter is written by well-known researchers in the field that guides the reader on a specific method in applied consumer research. Chapters are separated by disciplines, detail brief theoretical background, provide a clear examples of the methodology, anthropology, history, linguistics, and visual arts, culinary arts, design, and user experience are also approached. The separation of methods through disciplines gives a better structure to the reader when trying to apply each method. Authoritative and cutting-edge, Consumer Research Methods in Food Science detail clear steps and a framework to reproduce consumer research methods in different applications.
CRIME ORGANIZADO E INFILTRAÇÃO POLICIAL EM MEIO ECONÔMICO
O autor aborda aspectos sobre a criminalidade organizada, evidenciando a sua contínua evolução, a busca pelo acúmulo de riqueza e de poder e o emprego de variados métodos para blindar os lucros ilícitos e proteger lideranças. A partir daí, o pesquisador discorre sobre desafios à persecução criminal estatal derivados dessa problemática inicial e aponta para a necessidade do emprego criativo e inovador das técnicas e dos meios de obtenção de provas durante a fase de investigação criminal do processo penal. A obra culmina com uma análise acurada sobre a (in)aplicabilidade da infiltração de agente policial em meio econômico, como técnica de obtenção de prova adequada, legal e legítima para a eficácia da repressão – e prevenção – a organizações criminosas.
CRIMES OMISSIVOS IMPRÓPRIOS E DOLO EVENTUAL
Omissão imprópria e dolo eventual são dois assuntos que, há muito, suscitam calorosos debates acadêmicos e práticos. Atualmente, considerando o grande desafio que o Direito Penal enfrenta na análise de condutas desempenhadas em meio às complexas estruturas empresariais, as quais geram problemas de imputação objetiva e subjetiva, observa-se que as controvérsias a respeito desses temas se apresentam de forma ainda mais intensa. É nesse contexto que esta obra está inserida, propondo-se a investigar uma possível incompatibilidade entre omissão imprópria e dolo eventual. A relevância desse assunto para a prática jurídica atual pode ser observada, por exemplo, a partir de dois recentes casos de rompimento de barragens de mineração no Brasil – casos de Mariana e Brumadinho, em Minas Gerais –, nos quais a pretensão punitiva estatal para responsabilização penal das pessoas físicas supostamente implicadas nos fatos é ancorada, justamente, nos conceitos de omissão imprópria e dolo eventual.
