The Transformation of Environmental Law and Governance
This cutting-edge book considers the functional inseparability of risk and innovation within the context of environmental law and governance. Analysing both ‘hard’ and ‘soft’ innovation, the book argues that approaches to socio-ecological risk require innovation in order for society and the environment to become more resilient.
Universalização do acesso à água potável e redução da fragmentação normativa por meio das normas de referência
Este livro analisa a água pela perspectiva do direito à vida por meio da universalização do acesso à água potável como direito fundamental que deve ser assegurado a todos. Aborda-se o saneamento básico no tocante ao serviço de abastecimento de água e a promulgação, em 2020, do novo marco do saneamento básico em um cenário de pandemia do Covid-19 e no qual 35 milhões de brasileiros não têm acesso a esse bem essencial. Após a análise da relevância de um sistema regulatório padrão, claro e bem definido, superando alguns dos desafios que restringem o crescimento do saneamento básico, é apresentada, em especial, a avaliação do quadro regulatório estadual quanto à redução progressiva e/ou controle de perdas de água, que possui uma taxa elevada (mais de 38% de perda), sendo um dos, se não o maior, desafios do setor a ser superado. O resultado encontrado demonstra que 73% das agências estaduais não possuem nenhum ato regulatório quanto às perdas de água apresentando um cenário normativo deficiente ou mesmo ausente e que 69% das agências demonstraram, formalmente, estar receptivas a essas normas padrões.
The Transformation of Environmental Law and Governance
This cutting-edge book considers the functional inseparability of risk and innovation within the context of environmental law and governance. Analysing both 'hard' and 'soft' innovation, the book argues that approaches to socio-ecological risk require innovation in order for society and the environment to become more resilient. In addition to risk and innovation, this book also highlights the need for resilience thinking in environmental law and governance, questioning whether these three factors are mutually supportive. Featuring wide geographical coverage of environmental law issues in both developing and developed nations, contributions posit that environmental law and governance is in a ...

Revolt on the Right
Winner of the Political Book of the Year Award 2015 The UK Independence Party (UKIP) is the most significant new party in British politics for a generation. In recent years UKIP and their charismatic leader Nigel Farage have captivated British politics, media and voters. Yet both the party and the roots of its support remain poorly understood. Where has this political revolt come from? Who is supporting them, and why? How are UKIP attempting to win over voters? And how far can their insurgency against the main parties go? Drawing on a wealth of new data – from surveys of UKIP voters to extensive interviews with party insiders – in this book prominent political scientists Robert Ford and Matthew Goodwin put UKIP's revolt under the microscope and show how many conventional wisdoms about the party and the radical right are wrong. Along the way they provide unprecedented insight into this new revolt, and deliver some crucial messages for those with an interest in the state of British politics, the radical right in Europe and political behaviour more generally.

Fake News
New perspectives on the misinformation ecosystem that is the production and circulation of fake news. What is fake news? Is it an item on Breitbart, an article in The Onion, an outright falsehood disseminated via Russian bot, or a catchphrase used by a politician to discredit a story he doesn't like? This book examines the real fake news: the constant flow of purposefully crafted, sensational, emotionally charged, misleading or totally fabricated information that mimics the form of mainstream news. Rather than viewing fake news through a single lens, the book maps the various kinds of misinformation through several different disciplinary perspectives, taking into account the overlapping cont...
