Temas de Direito Tributário - Volume 2
Gilberto Ulhôa Canto Presidente da Associação Brasileira de Direito Financeiro - ABDF por 28 anos, Ulhôa Canto sempretratou o Direito como verdadeiro artesanato e, por essa razão, deixou enorme e fundamental legado para a formação profissional de incontáveis seguidores pertencentes às mais diversas gerações. Um dos maiores juristas que este país já teve, Ulhôa Canto participou de forma decisiva na elaboração e solidificação do ordenamento jurídico em que se ampara o Sistema Tributário Nacional há 55 anos. De fato, Ulhôa Canto foi um dos autores dos projetos de que resultaram a única efetiva reforma constitucional tributária até hoje vivenciada na história nacional – a Emenda Constitucional 18/65 – e o próprio Código tributário Nacional, que, desde quando editado, em 25/10/1966, jamais teve qualquer dos seus dispositivos declarado inconstitucional.

State Capitalism under Neoliberalism
State Capitalism under Neoliberalism analyzes State capitalism in agri-food under neoliberalism and investigates State-sponsored actions designed to counter the negative consequences of the implementation of free-market policies and strategies. In particular, it probes efforts of the Brazilian State to respond to the neoliberalization and corporatization of agriculture and food. Between 2003 and 2016, the left leaning Workers’ Party (Partido dos Trabalhadores) governed Brazil, which claimed to support landless peasants, family farming, food sovereignty, and State regulation of the unwanted consequences of the evolution of free market capitalism. The contributors analyze these actions of the Brazilian State, stressing its accomplishments and limits, and argue that the emancipatory actions of the Brazilian State engendered a complex and contradictory set of results which show that State capitalism is a problematic solution to the problems generated by the global neoliberal regime.
Giacomo Puccini
Opera recordings have been with us since the creation of the first wax cylinders. Now at a time when the 25-year reign of the compact disc appears to be coming to an end is the moment to take stock of the history of recordings of arguably the most popular composer of operas, Giacomo Puccini. In Giacomo Puccini: A Discography, librarian and music historian Roger Flury looks at each opera chronologically from Le Villi to Turandot, followed by sections on Puccini's instrumental, chamber, orchestral, and solo vocal works. Details of each complete opera are listed by recording date, followed by excerpts in the order in which they occur in the opera. Recordings of each aria are listed alphabetical...
Novels in Three Lines
A NEW YORK REVIEW BOOKS ORIGINAL Novels in Three Lines collects more than a thousand items that appeared anonymously in the French newspaper Le Matin in 1906—true stories of murder, mayhem, and everyday life presented with a ruthless economy that provokes laughter even as it shocks. This extraordinary trove, undiscovered until the 1940s and here translated for the first time into English, is the work of the mysterious Félix Fénéon. Dandy, anarchist, and critic of genius, the discoverer of Georges Seurat and the first French publisher of James Joyce, Fénéon carefully maintained his own anonymity, toiling for years as an obscure clerk in the French War Department. Novels in Three Lines is his secret chef-d’oeuvre, a work of strange and singular art that brings back the long-ago year of 1906 with the haunting immediacy of a photograph while looking forward to such disparate works as Walter Benjamin’s Arcades Project and the Death and Disaster series of Andy Warhol.
