Agents of Orthodoxy
The Portuguese Inquisition is often portrayed as a tyrannical institution that imposed itself on an unsuspecting and impotent society. The men who ran it are depicted as unprincipled bandits and ruthless spies who gleefully dragged their neighbors away to rot in dark, pestilential prisons. In this new study, based on extensive archival research, James E.

Core-periphery Relations in the European Union
Successive Enlargements to the European Union membership have transformed it into an economically, politically and culturally heterogeneous body with distinct vulnerabilities in its multi-level governance. This book analyses core-periphery relations to highlight the growing cleavage, and potential conflict, between the core and peripheral member-states of the Union in the face of the devastating consequences of Eurozone crisis. Taking a comparative and theoretical approach and using a variety of case studies, it examines how the crisis has both exacerbated tensions in centre-periphery relations within and outside the Eurozone, and how the European Union’s economic and political status is declining globally. This text will be of key interest to students and scholars of European Union studies, European integration, political economy, public policy, and comparative politics.

As mílicias dEl Rey: tropas militares e poder no Ceará setecentista
Este livro analisa a formação, organização e atuação dos diferentes tipos de tropas militares no Ceará setecentista. Tema pouco estudado na historiografia brasileira, o serviço das armas exerceu papel fundamental no pacto político estabelecido entre a Coroa lusitana e os poderes locais no Império ultramarino português. José Eudes Gomes inova ao considerar a pluralidade de adaptações, as irregularidades e a intensa participação das populações locais, indígenas ou não europeias, na conquista e colonização do Ceará. Comandadas pelos poderosos do sertão, as milícias Del Rey foram decisivas na definição dos estatutos e hierarquias sociais da região.
