Oiapoque Riverside
The border between Brazil and France on this Amazonian breaking point mixes some elements that we can understand in the sphere of International Relations, such as border, diplomatic and intergovernmental cooperation. Politically speaking, the bases of a territory or nation tend to be constituted by the powers of the State. However, from the point of view of certain ethnic-racial groups not contemplated by the state logic – through their laws and rules – in many cases, they tend to diverge from an imposed national project.
Los mundos del trabajo
Este libro reflexiona sobre las especificidades y multiplicidades de las experiencias del trabajo y de los trabajadores y trabajadoras en América Latina y el Caribe en clave histórica. Sus páginas se presentan como parte de un legado historiográfico que en las últimas décadas permitió ampliar los modos de entender los mundos del trabajo a partir de la incorporación de nuevas variables, métodos y fuentes. Durante este tiempo, la historia social del trabajo se ha esforzado por colocar en el centro de la narrativa a los trabajadores, sean estos esclavizados o asalariados, obreros de las fábricas o trabajadores del mar.

Civic Engagement and Politics
Creating transparency between government and citizens through outreach and engagement initiatives is critical to promoting community development and is also an essential part of a democratic society. This can be achieved through a number of methods including public policy, urban development, artistic endeavors, and digital platforms. Civic Engagement and Politics: Concepts, Methodologies, Tools, and Applications is a vital reference source that examines civic engagement practices in social, political, and non-political contexts. As the world is now undergoing a transformation, interdisciplinary collaboration, participation, community-based participatory research, partnerships, and co-creation have become more common than focused domains. Highlighting a range of topics such as social media and politics, civic activism, and public administration, this multi-volume book is geared toward government officials, leaders, practitioners, policymakers, academicians, and researchers interested in active citizen participation and politics.
Freedom by a Thread
Freedom by a Thread: The History of Quilombos in Brazil brings together some of the best scholars in the world working on the history of quilombos (maroon societies) in Brazil from a variety of perspectives and approaches. Over 40 percent of the total volume of captive Africans arrived in Brazil during a 400-year period of legal and contraband transatlantic slaving. If slavery penetrated every aspect of Brazilian life, so did resistance—and co-existence with it—in the form of small to large-scale quilombos. Palmares and the other quilombos built an exciting history of freedom. Yet, it is a history filled with traps and surprises, advances and setbacks, conflict and commitments, while advancing their immediate interests and more ambitious projects of liberty. These events and many others are part of the history told in this book.

Apellido Y Otros Poemas
Poetry. Bilingual Edition. Translated from the Spanish by Roberto Marquez. In this collection, Guillen's vision of life as a widespread and diverse menagerie remains as potent today as when it was first published.
