O Elogio da Teoria

  • Categories: Law

Nesta obra, os autores realizam uma ampla discussão do paradigma juspositivista dominante, dialogando fartamente com o discurso filosófico, literário, político e econômico, de modo que o impacto dessa leitura para além das fronteiras acadêmicas, sem delas se desgarrar, preservando um sólido fundamento teórico. Procuram, por meio do estudo de teoria e filosofia do direito, buscando uma resposta correta no direito, o que se revela viável dada a ausência de previsibilidade das decisões judiciais no Brasil, que impactam invariavelmente a sociedade, a política e a economia do país. O livro leva o leitor a compreender o fenômeno complexo do direito e o âmbito de sua efetividade a partir dos efeitos e impactos da decisão judicial num cenário em que o juspositivismo tradicional do século XX não parece manter sustentação.

Desafios da Justiça Restaurativa na Violência Doméstica

  • Categories: Law

Nesta obra, a autora demonstra se a Justiça Restaurativa é adequada à resolução de conflitos familiares originários de violência doméstica. A violência, analisada sob seus aspectos sociológicos e psicológicos, permite constatar duas consequências decorrentes dela: o trauma e a vergonha. Todos esses temas profundamente considerados são apreciados sob marcos normativos pertinentes, a fim de verificar a adequação da Justiça Restaurativa também sob o plano prático, na medida em que a pesquisa empírica analisa as experiências brasileiras principalmente em Minas Gerais. Por fim, são apresentados de forma descritiva os limites e as possibilidades de atuação da Justiça Restaurativa em casos relacionados à violência doméstica, com a formulação de propostas para seu aprimoramento.

The Quality of Democracy

In 1996, Guillermo O’Donnell taught a seminar at the University of Notre Dame on democratic theory. One of the questions explored in this class was whether it is possible to define and determine the “quality” of democracy. Jorge Vargas Cullell, a student in this course, returned to his native country of Costa Rica, formed a small research team, and secured funding for undertaking a “citizen audit” of the quality of democracy in Costa Rica. This pathbreaking volume contains O’Donnell’s qualitative theoretical study of the quality of democracy and Vargas Cullell’s description and analysis of the empirical data he gathered on the quality of democracy in Costa Rica. It also inclu...

Capital Corruption

This work is a quality analysis of the problems posed by Political Action Committees in American life. As the author notes in his new introduction: "Political corruption, as measured by campaign contributions of special interests to elected officials, increased significantly in the few years since the first publication of Capital Corruption. The number of PACs rose from 2,551 in 1980 to 4,175 by 1986. The percentage of PAC contribution of total campaign costs increased from 31.4 percent in 1980 to 41.9 percent (House) and 24.5 percent to 27.0 percent (Senate) in 1986." Such data only begin to tell the story of a book which has grown in stature during the decade. Etzioni characterizes Washing...

The Atlantic Forest

The Atlantic Forest is one of the 36 hotspots for biodiversity conservation worldwide. It is a unique, large biome (more than 3000 km in latitude; 2500 in longitude), marked by high biodiversity, high degree of endemic species and, at the same time, extremely threatened. Approximately 70% of the Brazilian population lives in the area of this biome, which makes the conflict between biodiversity conservation and the sustainability of the human population a relevant issue. This book aims to cover: 1) the historical characterization and geographic variation of the biome; 2) the distribution of the diversity of some relevant taxa; 3) the main threats to biodiversity, and 4) possible opportunities to ensure the biodiversity conservation, and the economic and social sustainability. Also, it is hoped that this book can be useful for those involved in the development of public policies aimed at the conservation of this important global biome.
