The Making of Book Pedagogy of the Oppressed
An unanswered question on the making of Pedagogy of the Oppressed is when, where and how this book was written, edited, and published. The Preface of the original Portuguese handwritten manuscript is dated in Chile by 1967. Some scholars imply that the manuscript was finished sometime in March or April 1969. By then, Freire had left Chile and three of his books had been published by the Institute of Research and Training in Agrarian Reform, ICIRA. Freire himself had already committed the English translation, from the original Portuguese manuscript with Herder & Herder in New York, together with the Spanish translation published by Tierra Nueva in Uruguay. This book explores the ways in which...
Dependency, Neoliberalism and Globalization in Latin America
The Marxist Theory of Dependency (TMD) managed to articulate the insertion of peripheral societies into the international market with the capital accumulation processes of each country. It has become an essential theory for the understanding of our societies. Since Ruy Mauro Marini laid out its foundations, many transformations have occurred in global capitalism and in our societies, leaving us the challenge of updating it against a more complex context. The real test of theory is its adequacy as an instrument of understanding contemporary reality. The TMD has been enriched and renewed from this work of Carlos Eduardo Martins. It considers capitalism from the perspective of anti-capitalism, ...
O poder americano
Analisa o contexto histórico dos processos ligados à estrutuação do "Poder Global dos Estados Unidos".

Trata da mundialização do Capital, da expansão do poder americano e a economia política da internacionalização sob liderança dos EUA.
Uma teoria do poder global
Nesta obra, José Luís Fiori apresenta resultados de sua longa pesquisa histórica e teórica no campo das relações internacionais. Fiori parte da "crise do desenvolvimento latino-americano" e da "crise da hegemonia americana" dos anos de 1970, distancia-se das interpretações convencionais e mergulha no estudo do "sistema interestatal capitalista" e de suas raízes e conexões eurasianas milenares, bem como de sua expansão e conquista colonial da América e da África. Na obra de Fiori, "poder" aparece como fio condutor que entrelaça e dissolve as fronteiras acadêmicas tradicionais entre a ciência política, a história, a economia política internacional, a sociologia e a geopolítica. Este livro é uma obra acadêmica essencial, mas é também uma reflexão comprometida com o desafio de pensar o Brasil dentro dessa disputa universal pelo poder.
The Developmental State
The "developmental state" is one in which the government intervenes in industrial affairs. Critics charge that Japan's success in implementing it has not been replicated elsewhere. Here, a team of scholars revisits the notion to assess its continued utility and establish a vocabulary for debate.
Sobre a guerra
"Sobre a Guerra" reúne textos de grandes especialistas que enfocam a guerra através de diferentes perspectivas: geopolítica, econômica, histórica. A dimensão ética da guerra, raramente enfocada, é aqui discutida de forma central. Esses textos tematizam de modo bastante esclarecedor tanto o conceito de "guerra", seus sentidos e suas implicações, quanto analisam a guerra enquanto fenômeno histórico e contemporâneo com que nos defrontamos em nosso dia a dia. E nos desafiam a pensar se é possível imaginar, ou mesmo desejar, um mundo sem guerras.
Cultural Action for Freedom
In this volume, we have chosen to highlight the importance of education to human rights by reprinting two articles written by Paulo Freire (1921-1997) in 1970 for the Harvard Educational Review.
Advanced Introduction to International Political Economy
This book, now in its second edition, provides a comprehensive and up to date survey of the field of International Political Economy. Although the subject’s roots go far back, the modern field has developed along sharply divergent paths followed by different clusters of scholars. Today there are multiple versions of IPE, each with its own distinct personality. This book illuminates the full array of analytical styles and traditions to be found across the globe in this rich field of study.
Neoliberalism or Developmentalism
This book collects essays on the political economy of Brazil, focusing on the federal administrations led by the Workers’ Party (PT), under Presidents Lula and Dilma Rousseff. The essays examine the economic, political, and social aspects of these governments, and a whole spectrum of policies implemented – or not – between 2003 and 2016, with implications for the subsequent period up to, and including, the administration led by Jair Bolsonaro. It is shown that those governments were neoliberal, but in different ways when compared with other administrations in that country. Their similarities and differences are examined in detail. Contributors are: Adalmir Antonio Marquetti, Alessandro...
