Floresta urbana viva
A população mundial mais que triplicou entre os anos de 1950 e 2020, a expectativa de vida dos indivíduos aumentou, e o oitavo bilionésimo habitante da Terra deverá nascer em novembro de 2022, segundo a Organização das Nações Unidas (ONU). Atualmente, mais da metade dos habitantes da terra, cerca de 4,4 bilhões de pessoas, residem em áreas urbanas, e o número deve crescer ainda mais, chegando a quase 70% em 2050. Com o crescimento da população nas cidades, cresce também a preocupação com o bem-estar e a saúde dos habitantes. Diante desses números, a Sociedade Brasileira de Arborização Urbana (SBAU), através do Anais do XXIV Congresso Brasileiro e III Ibero-Americano de Arborização Urbana, convidou interessados da comunidade acadêmica, e dos setores privado, público e demais interessados, a submeter propostas de trabalho no tema “Floresta Urbana Viva”, discutindo assuntos em cinco diferentes eixos PPGS-UFMG.

Cancer Epidemiology
According to the World Health Organization's 2008 GLOBOCAN report, 64% of global cancer deaths -- and 56% of cancer cases -- were registered in countries in Africa, Asia, or Latin America. So while cancer is unquestionably a global burden, its reach in the developing world points to the need for specialized study on cancer in these countries. Cancer Epidemiology: Low- and Middle-Income Countries and Special Populations reviews the current status of cancer epidemiologic research and training -- rationale, requisite infrastructure, methodologic principles, and illustrative examples in low- and middle-income countries -- in order to facilitate future advances by trained health professionals. The result is a valuable resource for both program leaders and graduate and post-graduate students pursuing careers in international cancer epidemiologic research.
Transforming Modernity
Is popular culture merely a process of creating, marketing, and consuming a final product, or is it an expression of the artist's surroundings and an attempt to alter them? Noted Argentine/Mexican anthropologist Néstor García Canclini addresses these questions and more in Transforming Modernity, a translation of Las culturas populares en el capitalismo. Based on fieldwork among the Purépecha of Michoacán, Mexico, some of the most talented artisans of the New World, the book is not so much a work of ethnography as of philosophy—a cultural critique of modernism. García Canclini delineates three interpretations of popular culture: spontaneous creation, which posits that artistic expressi...
Genre in a Changing World
Genre studies and genre approaches to literacy instruction continue to develop in many regions and from a widening variety of approaches. Genre has provided a key to understanding the varying literacy cultures of regions, disciplines, professions, and educational settings.

The twenty-four chapters in this volume, reflecting the work of scholars in Europe, Australasia, and North and South America, were selected from the over 400 presentations at SIGET IV (the Fourth International Symposium on Genre Studies) held on the campus of UNISUL in Tubarão, Santa Catarina, Brazil in August 2007—the l...
Cybernetic Revolutionaries
A historical study of Chile's twin experiments with cybernetics and socialism, and what they tell us about the relationship of technology and politics. In Cybernetic Revolutionaries, Eden Medina tells the history of two intersecting utopian visions, one political and one technological. The first was Chile's experiment with peaceful socialist change under Salvador Allende; the second was the simultaneous attempt to build a computer system that would manage Chile's economy. Neither vision was fully realized—Allende's government ended with a violent military coup; the system, known as Project Cybersyn, was never completely implemented—but they hold lessons for today about the relationship b...
