International Law as Constructive Resistance towards Peace and Justice
Professor Toshiki Mogami, the featured figure of this memorial edition, has developed his academic career in international law and politics. Professor Mogami’s original normative and analytical framework is characterized by himself as Jus Contra Anarchism et Oligarchism: international law against interstate and institutionalised violence. The editors extract the very essence of his teachings from Professor Mogami’s masterpieces, specifically, International Law as Constructive Resistance towards Peace and Justice.
Race and Democracy in the Americas
Race and Democracy in the Americas examines dimensions of the comparative dynamics of race and ethnicity, with a directed focus on the Americas, most particularly Brazil and the United States. Brazil and the United States are two countries in the Americas that have been major hosts for the African diaspora. Both countries experienced prolonged enslavement of Africans and both now claim to be beacons of democracy for much of the developing world. Both Afro-Brazilians and African Americans have fielded major liberation movements against racism and oppression yet both groups continue to experience considerable residual racial discrimination and displacement. Brazil and the U.S. remain racialize...
Foundations, US Foreign Policy and Anti-Racism in Brazil
This book connects the work of US private foundations, the US government, and Brazilian intellectuals to explore how they worked collaboratively to address racial disparities in Brazil during the Cold War. It reveals not only how anti-racism was promoted during this period, shaping the political and academic agenda, but also the importance of American foundations, especially the Rockefeller and Ford Foundations, in the process. Drawing on a vast array of archival and published sources from Brazil, the United States, and around the world, the book investigates the making of transnational connections and networks that sought to respond to the "race problem", seen as an increasingly dangerous threat to the liberal international order. This book is especially relevant to the areas of Race Studies, Social Sciences, Latin-American Studies, Political Science and History, particularly the History of Sociology and Anthropology, as well as to studies about the role of American foundations in the Cold War period. It will also be of interest to activists, social scientists, economists, historians, journalists, NGOs, and INGOs.
Brazilian Evangelicalism in the Twenty-First Century
Over the past fifty years Brazil’s evangelical community has increased from five to twenty-five percent of the population. This volume’s authors use statistical overview, historical narrative, personal anecdote, social-scientific analysis, and theological inquiry to map out this emerging landscape. The book’s thematic center pivots on the question of how Brazilian evangelicals are exerting their presence and effecting change in the public life of the nation. Rather than fixing its focus on the interior life of Brazilian evangelicals and their congregations, the book’s attention is directed toward social expression: the ways in which Brazilian evangelicals are present and active in the common life of the nation.
The International Legal Order's Colour Line
Prior to the twentieth century, international law was predominantly written by and for the 'civilised nations' of the white Global North. It justified doctrines of racial inequality and effectively drew a colour line that excluded citizens of the Global South and persons of African descent from participating in international law-making while subjecting them to colonialism and the slave trade. The International Legal Order's Colour Line narrates this divide and charts the development of regulation on racism and racial discrimination at the international level, principally within the United Nations. Most notably, it outlines how these themes gained traction once the Global South gained more pa...
Segurança pública
O que é segurança pública? Mais importante, o que deve ser? Como a segurança pública se insere e relaciona no âmbito dos direitos humanos? O que se pode esperar de uma política pública de segurança? Como se pode controlar a atividade executiva e legislativa nesta seara? Quais são os direitos de segurança? É viável existir um direito à segurança pública? Qual é a realidade brasileira e como está sendo a evolução do cenário nacional? É possível comparar resultados de políticas públicas de segurança de Estados brasileiros com os de outros países ao longo do tempo? O que legitima, valida, fundamenta e deve dirigir a segurança pública? Como o tema foi enfrentado na história constitucional brasileira e o que se pode aperfeiçoar? Pensar e repensar temas relevantes para a vida, torna-se cada vez mais necessário nas sociedades complexas e de rápidas mudanças que formam a aldeia global. Este é o desafio do presente trabalho. Buscar respostas a estas e outras indagações e contribuir para o bem-estar de todos.
O que resta da ditadura
Bem lembrada na frase que serve de epígrafe ao livro, a importância do passado no processo histórico que determinará o porvir de uma nação é justamente o que torna fundamental esta obra. Organizada por Edson Teles e Vladimir Safatle, O que resta da ditadura reúne uma série de ensaios que esquadrinham o legado deixado pelo regime militar na estrutura jurídica, nas práticas políticas, na literatura, na violência institucionalizada e em outras esferas da vida social brasileira. Fruto de um seminário realizado na Universidade de São Paulo (USP), em 2008, o livro reúne textos de escritores e intelectuais como Maria Rita Kehl, Jaime Ginzburg, Paulo Arantes, Ricardo Lísias e Jeanne...
