MEDIDA CAUTELAR PENAL PROSPECTIVA
A prisão processual no Brasil atinge patamares elevados, que o mantém em posição proeminente no ranking de países com maior percentual de presos provisórios do mundo. Para refrear esse encarceramento provisório em massa, o legislador introduziu rol de alternativas cautelares diversas do cárcere no art. 319 do CPP. Dentre essas alternativas legais, a medida cautelar de comparecimento periódico em juízo é a mais aplicada, sendo incluída dentre as alternativas penais de intervenção em conflitos e violências mediante enfoque restaurativo, pela Resolução CNJ nº 288/2019. A partir dessa explícita previsão normativa, emergiu o problema que orientou este livro: seria possível re...
Criminologia e Efetividade da Justiça - Dialéticas de Brasil e Portugal
A Criminologia tem como principal propósito estudar o crime e o comportamento criminal. No contexto luso-brasileiro, refletir e debater sobre a efetividade da justiça é um imperativo para a Academia, pois é fator-chave de desenvolvimento econômico e social. Nesse sentido, os estudos empíricos criminológicos devem orientar políticas judiciárias, a fim de que a Justiça Criminal seja mais efetiva na redução da criminalidade e na proteção das garantias e direitos dos indivíduos. (Fabrício Lunardi; José Cruz; Pedro Sousa) “Esse livro permitirá ao leitor, ao final, uma compreensão ampla de todos os elementos que integram o crime, o criminoso e a vítima, bem como do atuar da Justiça Penal, com a sugestão de práticas [...] para uma justiça efetiva.” Sebastião Reis Júnior, Ministro do STJ)
Superhumanity
A wide-ranging and challenging exploration of design and how it engages with the self The field of design has radically expanded. As a practice, design is no longer limited to the world of material objects but rather extends from carefully crafted individual styles and online identities to the surrounding galaxies of personal devices, new materials, interfaces, networks, systems, infrastructures, data, chemicals, organisms, and genetic codes. Superhumanity seeks to explore and challenge our understanding of “design” by engaging with and departing from the concept of the “self.” This volume brings together more than fifty essays by leading scientists, artists, architects, designers, p...

Exquisite Mariposa
In the aftermath of a reality TV deal gone wrong, Fiona Alison Duncan asks the question, Can you rewrite your life? The answer, her debut novel Exquisite Mariposa, follows a cast of housemates as they navigate questions of art making and economies, breakups and breakdowns, and the internet and its many obsessions. Given the initials F.A.D. at birth, Fiona Alison Duncan has always had an eye for observing the trends around her. But after years of looking for answers in books and astrological charts and working as a celebrity journalist to make rent, Fiona discovers another way of existing: in the Real, a phenomenological state few humans live in. Fiona’s journey to the Real takes her to Koreatown, Los Angeles, where she sublets a room in La Mariposa. There, in the aftermath of a reality TV deal gone wrong, Fiona asks the question, Can you rewrite your life? The answer, her debut novel, Exquisite Mariposa, follows a cast of friends and lovers as they navigate questions of art making and economies, breakups and breakdowns, and the Internet and its many obsessions.
Labor and Product Market Reforms and External Imbalances: Evidence from Advanced Economies
We explore the impact of major labor and product market reforms on current account dynamics using a new “narrative” database of major changes in employment protection for regular workers and product market regulation for non-manufacturing industries covering 26 advanced economies over the past four decades. Our main finding is that product market deregulation is associated with a weakening of the current account, while labor market deregulation is associated with an improvement. These effects are transitory and driven by both saving and investment responses. Labor and product market reforms both have a more positive impact on the current account balance when implemented under weak macroeconomic conditions. Our results are broadly consistent with predictions from recent DSGE models with endogenous producer entry and labor market frictions.
Monetary Policy Transmission in Emerging Markets and Developing Economies
Central banks in emerging and developing economies (EMDEs) have been modernizing their monetary policy frameworks, often moving toward inflation targeting (IT). However, questions regarding the strength of monetary policy transmission from interest rates to inflation and output have often stalled progress. We conduct a novel empirical analysis using Jordà’s (2005) approach for 40 EMDEs to shed a light on monetary transmission in these countries. We find that interest rate hikes reduce output growth and inflation, once we explicitly account for the behavior of the exchange rate. Having a modern monetary policy framework—adopting IT and independent and transparent central banks—matters more for monetary transmission than financial development.
This Changes Everything: Climate Shocks and Sovereign Bonds
Climate change is already a systemic risk to the global economy. While there is a large body of literature documenting potential economic consequences, there is scarce research on the link between climate change and sovereign risk. This paper therefore investigates the impact of climate change vulnerability and resilience on sovereign bond yields and spreads in 98 advanced and developing countries over the period 1995–2017. We find that the vulnerability and resilience to climate change have a significant impact on the cost government borrowing, after controlling for conventional determinants of sovereign risk. That is, countries that are more resilient to climate change have lower bond yields and spreads relative to countries with greater vulnerability to risks associated with climate change. Furthermore, partitioning the sample into country groups reveals that the magnitude and statistical significance of these effects are much greater in developing countries with weaker capacity to adapt to and mitigate the consequences of climate change.
Bill Bollinger
In his short life, Bollinger created an oeuvre that is complex, radical and intense, and well worth rediscovering. At the same time, the show aims to contribute to the current reappraisal of hitherto neglected art positions. At the height of the space race, he was creating sculptures that explore the gravity, balance and specific properties of a wide variety of materials. The cosmos and water are key elements in the work of Bollinger, who was fascinated by curved space, the vertical and the horizontal, resulting in evanescent, purist, energy-laden works with a radical edge that still have the power to astound us, even today.
