A presente obra apresenta uma visão inovadora e multifacetada sobre Energia, Mineração e a Crise Hídrica. Como fruto das pesquisas de um diversificado numero de professores, com origens e formação em instituições de ensino de ponta, traz a marca da multidisciplinaridade e da cooperação interinstitucional. A preservação, o uso racional e o desenvolvimento sustentável são alguns dos temas se fazem presentes em diversos artigos e contribuem para um sentido de unidade ao trabalho. Com um lastro no novo constitucionalismo e sem perder de vista a ênfase na dimensão continental de algumas das questões centrais sobre meio ambiente, direitos fundamentais e sustentabilidade, reportam-se a suas experiências profissionais e estudos de casos que enriquecem o debate. O leitor terá à sua disposição informações relevantes e análises críticas, que propiciam um panorama completo e atual das matérias apresentadas. Desejo a todos uma excelente leitura!

O Direito ambiental, passou a ser visto como disciplina jurídica autônoma a partir da contribuição da Ecologia, por volta dos anos cinquenta do século passado. Hoje, em pleno século XXI, vivencia-se um mundo interconectado, com relações instantâneas e que a cada dia exige uma visão jurídica comparada, até porque, quando diante de assuntos afetos ao ambiente, o produzido por uma determinada localidade pode afetar outra a quilômetros de distância. Sendo assim, idealizou-se uma obra sob a perspectiva ibero-americana onde cada autor se comprometeu a estudar os principais aspectos e institutos do Direito ambiental de seu país, seguindo um norte traçado pelos diretores e coordenadores desta obra. O objetivo foi propiciar ao leitor a possibilidade de diferenciar e estabelecer as semelhanças entre este ramo do direito em diferentes países. Espera-se que essa obra permita que seu leitor consiga comparar os diferentes regimes jurídicos por elas disciplinados.

Mercury from Gold and Silver Mining

Mercury from Gold and Silver Mining

Due to its inherent characteristics, mercury contamination from gold mining is a major environmental problem compared to past mercury contamination from industrial point sources. The worsening of social-economical conditions and increasing gold prices in the late 1970s resulted in a new rush for gold by individual entrepreneurs for whom Hg amalgamation is a cheap and easily carried out operation. Even after the present-day mining areas are exhausted, the mercury left behind will remain part of the biochemical cycle of the tropical forest. This book reviews the current information on mercury from gold mining, its cycling in the environment and its long-term ecotoxicological impact. The book is illustrated with numerous diagrams and photographs.

Fifty years after the foundation of the OAU and the consolidation of most African states and institutions, the international panorama and Africa’s position in it have changed considerably. The world's geopolitical and economic configuration has evolved, with new actors appearing in a new period of globalization. In tone with ECAS 2013, this volume proposes that the experiences appearing in Africa question dominant paradigms in terms of political practice and academic reflection and thus offer a clear challenge to the academic community. The volume offers clues to answer questions such as: What is the impact of the current processes of globalization for African countries and African citizens? How should African Studies be engaged to gauge African dynamics, both at a local and global level? What interdisciplinary means and tools should be brought in to produce an epistemologically relevant view (or narrative) of the issues under analysis?
