En los últimos años, el Derecho y el sistema legal han sido puestos a prueba debido a los diversos desequilibrios y crisis que han tenido que enfrentar, como el proceso de globalización acelerado, las crisis financieras, la afectación grave al medio ambiente en forma de cambio climático y, recientemente, una pandemia. El objetivo de este libro es analizar el futuro del derecho en sociedades en transformación. En cuanto a la metodología, se utiliza un enfoque cualitativo, descriptivo, basado en investigación documental y estudios de casos. Se analizan diferentes ejemplos que evalúan aspectos considerados prioritarios en el Derecho, con el fin de extrapolar patrones que puedan ser afines al objetivo de generar una teoría que dé cuenta de este devenir, en relación con lo político, lo económico y lo social. Un Derecho que vuelva a ser considerado desde una variedad de disciplinas, con una multiplicidad de perspectivas y análisis y, sobre todo, que esté al servicio de las personas, la sociedad y la vida en el planeta.
Building on the groundbreaking 2012 exhibition “Byzantium and Islam: Age of Transition,” which explored the transformations and continuities in the Byzantine Empire from the seventh to the ninth century, the present volume extends the exhibition catalogue’s innovative investigation of cultural interaction between Christian and Jewish communities and the world of Islam. Eleven essays by internationally distinguished scholars address such topics as the transmission of Christian imagery to the Mediterranean, icons preserved in The Holy Monastery of Saint Catherine at Sinai, interaction between Jewish communities and the Muslim world, the purposeful mutilation of figurative floor mosaics in places of worship, the evolution of classical and Byzantine motifs in a new cosmology for Muslim rulers, and interconnections in the realm of music. Each essay provides compelling evidence that the era of transition from Byzantine to Islamic rule in the eastern Mediterranean and North Africa resulted in unprecedented cultural cross-fertilization and significantly affected the development of the Mediterranean world for centuries to come.
Num mundo tão complexo, envolto em graves crises geopolíticas, guerras, crise climática, miséria e fome, o Brasil também não está a salvo. A divisão política em nosso país acirra ódios e paixões. Talvez a única unanimidade que possamos identificar no Brasil seja a insatisfação geral com os serviços da Justiça: morosos, caros, incertos, sem falar no excessivo protagonismo voluntarista de magistrados, o que também mina a credibilidade do Poder Judiciário junto aos cidadãos comuns.
