"Por séculos, milênios talvez, tentaram calar as vozes e paralisar as ações de quem se costuma designar como "minorias", entre elas, as mulheres, sem atentar para o fato de que, essas "minorias" juntas somos a imensa maioria, e as mulheres, por si só, somos a maioria em qualquer sociedade. Aí está a esperança: não nos calaremos mais! Capazes de pensar e agir com grande competência em qualquer campo das ciências, artes, técnicas, sempre fomos, mas caladas, silenciadas, confinadas pela força bruta. O livro de Sandra é um interessante "catálogo" dessa "HERstory". - Maria Valéria Rezende, em novembro de 2020 (Escritora, freira, militante e uma das idealizadoras do coletivo literário feminino Mulherio das Letras)"

Aproximações evangélicas e neoliberais

Através de uma perspectiva histórica, analisa o fenômeno da expansão evangélica no Brasil, observada no início do século XXI, e as estratégias utilizadas no proselitismo, buscando compreender se a expansão dos segmentos evangélicos produz efeitos na relação dos alunos religiosos com os saberes escolares. As teorias de Fernández Enguita (1989) e de Apple e King (1983) permitiram compreender a educação como campo de disputa, por grupos sociais, em busca de poder. Com a contribuição de Apple (2003), compreendeu-se os interesses dos grupos dominantes envolvidos nessa disputa e o alinhamento entre eles formando uma direita política, com destaque para o grupo dos religiosos evang...

A groundbreaking look at marriage, one of the most basic and universal of all human institutions, which reveals the emotional, physical, economic, and sexual benefits that marriage brings to individuals and society as a whole. The Case for Marriage is a critically important intervention in the national debate about the future of family. Based on the authoritative research of family sociologist Linda J. Waite, journalist Maggie Gallagher, and a number of other scholars, this book’s findings dramatically contradict the anti-marriage myths that have become the common sense of most Americans. Today a broad consensus holds that marriage is a bad deal for women, that divorce is better for childr...

This timely book is the first to describe and analyse how the COVID-19 crisis has redefined arbitral practice, with critical appraisal from well-known practitioners of the pandemic’s effects on substantive and procedural aspects from the commencem...
