Diversidade cultural
Este livro reúne textos que tratam da importância de se promover e proteger a Diversidade Cultural, entendida aqui em sua complexidade a partir de análises que a articulam com a educação, a cultura, as artes e o desenvolvimento humano. Os autores, importantes nomes da Educação, da Antropologia, da Arte-Educação e das Ciências Sociais em geral, mostram as discussões atuais sobre o assunto, sinalizam para onde parece caminhar o Brasil, o governo federal e nossa educação quando o assunto é Diversidade Cultural e tratam, ainda, de educação indígena, da diversidade étnico-racial e da Convenção Sobre a Proteção e Promoção da Diversidade das Expressões Culturais, promovida pela Unesco. O que diz essa Convenção? O que se pretende com ela? Essas são algumas das questões elucidadas neste livro que se empenha, principalmente, em responder - como promover e proteger nossa diversidade cultural?
The Solidarity Economy of Culture and Cultural Citizenship in the ABC Region of São Paulo, Brazil
How can artists in a developing country be able to dedicate themselves to the laborious task of creating art when there are few resources? How can the government and intellectuals support artists without imposing a centralized idea of national culture? This book explores these questions and others, focusing on lived experience in the ABC region of São Paulo, Brazil. Beginning with two lectures by two renowned professors and activists of the Brazilian solidarity movement, Ladislau Dowbor and Célio Turino de Almeida, the book then opens up space for artists from diverse areas to speak about their experience in real life and real time. This work functions partly as a testimonial narrative and...
Social Exclusion and Mobility in Brazil
Brazil is a country of sharp disparities. The gap between the richest and the poorest citizens is one of the largest in the world. Inequality in Brazil is well-known, but its low mobility is not. Until now, few studies have sought to investigate how forms of social exclusion constrain socioeconomic mobility. Why do particular groups remain excluded and trapped in poverty for generations? What do Brazilians themselves think about income inequality and social mobility? This study explores these issues, provides a set of options to redress them, and promotes a national dialogue for action. In addi.

Desenvolvimento
Chaffee (government, Saint Mary's College) uses a theoretical approach to investigate the connection between politics and economics in Brazil. He offers statistics and detailed case studies of the country's regimes in support of his hypothesis that economic growth in Brazil leads to changes that support the governmental regime. Topics include the country's perpetually high inflation, the New Republic's strategy of growth based on import substitution, Jose Sarney's efforts to restructure politics with a new constitution, and the Real Plan.

Reforming the Labor Market in a Liberalized Economy
In addition, countries must produce a transparent atmosphere that depoliticizes contract disputes and negotiations. Finally, they must reform and strengthen institutions responsible for labor policies.
Crafting Labor Policy
Despite success in other areas of economic reform over the past ten years, Argentina, Brazil, and Chile continue to face significant labour policy issues. This volume contains a number of papers which discuss these regional issues with a focus on the period 1995-98. Many of the papers have been co-authored by leading labour economists and are based on work sponsored by the World Bank. The book also includes an introductory chapter which summarises labour market reforms in Latin America since the late 1980's, as well as a concluding chapter which analyses the main results and policy implications for the region.
City of Walls
"This is an extraordinary treatment of a difficult problem. . . . Much more than a conventional comparative study, City of Walls is a genuinely transcultural, transnational work—the first of its kind that I have read."—George E. Marcus, author of Ethnography Through Thick & Thin "Caldeira's work is wonderfully ambitious-theoretically bold, ethnographically rich, historically specific. Anyone who cares about the condition and future of cities, of democracy, of human rights should read this book."—Thomas Bender, Director of the Project on Cities and Urban Knowledges "City of Walls is a brilliant analysis of the dynamics of urban fear. The sophistication of Caldeira's arguments should sti...
