A PRIMEIRA BIOGRAFIA UM DOS NOMES MAIS IMPORTANTES NA HISTÓRIA DOS MOVIMENTOS POLÍTICOS BRASILEIROS Considerado por seus adversários como simples agitador social, incendiário, revolucionário, e por seus aliados de esquerda um visionário, Julião foi responsável por importantes conquistas sociais para o campesinato brasileiro. Nos primeiros anos da década de 1960, ele organizou a maior greve camponesa no Brasil, com fortes reflexos no Nordeste, ocasião em que forçou o governo a reconhecer, pela primeira vez, o piso salarial para o trabalhador rural da zona canavieira pernambucana e, a seguir, assegurar à mesma categoria o direito à sindicalização.

We present empirical evidence to assess the relative magnitudes of these three effects as they apply to further trade liberalization in Mexico.

We find for two pollutants (sulphur dioxide and 'smoke') that concentrations increase with per capita GDP at low levels of national income, but decrea...
"Cutting, burning, branding, and bone-breaking are all types of self-injury, of the deliberate, non-suicidal destruction of one's own body tissue, a practice that emerged from obscurity in the 1990s and spread dramatically as a typical behavior among adolescents. Long considered a suicidal gesture, The Tender Cut argues instead that self-injury is often a coping mechanism, a form of teenage angst, and expression of group membership, and a type of rebellion, converting unbearable emotional pain into manageable physical pain. An important portrait of a troubling behavior, The Tender Cut illuminates the meaning of self-injury in the 21st century, its effects on current and former users, and its future as a practice for self-discovery or a cry for help."--P.
