O Volume 3 da presente coletânea junta-se aos Volumes I e II, anteriormente publicados, a partir do objetivo maior de apresentar às leitoras e aos leitores um conjunto de textos que contribuam para interpretar e pensar o direito quanto aos seus fundamentos, em sua interação com o Estado, com as pessoas (sobretudo minorias sociais) e frente a questões contemporâneas.
Hemiptera (true bugs, cicadas, leafhoppers, planthoppers, aphids, scale insects, psyllids) are among the most numerous and diverse in morphology, biology, ecology and behavior insect groups, with vital ecosystems. Many of them are important in the base of the food chain. Others have economic significance as pests on fruit trees, vines, greenhouse crops and other agrocoenoses. Invasive alien species are the second most important cause of biodiversity loss in Europe and many of them belong to Hemiptera. This special issue of ZooKeys includes a collection of 26 papers presented during the 6th European Hemiptera Congress, which was held at Blagoevgrad, Bulgaria from 25th to 29th June 2012. Leadi...
At the center of current debates surrounding the social function of museums, questions concerning museum activities and the participation of both inhabitants and the public arise. In 2019, these questions were the subject of many heated debates at the 34th General Assembly of ICOM in Kyoto, which intended to propose a new definition of the museum. As the representations of the tensions between Universalist and Communitarian approaches are not only largely dependent on the historical and socio-political contexts of the various countries concerned, a generational angle must also be considered. It thus seems totally anachronistic to try to defend a dichotomous vision that is far too simplistic....
The crop plants cater not only to our basic F5 (food, feed, fiber, fuel, and furniture) needs but also provide a number of nutraceuticals with potential nutritional, safety and therapeutic properties. Many crop plants provide an array of minerals, vitamins, and antioxidant-rich bioactive phytochemicals. Increasing incidences of chronic diseases such as cancer, diabetes and HIV, and malnutrition necessitate global attention to health and nutrition security with equal emphasis to food security. This compendium compiles results of researches on biochemical, physiological and genetic mechanisms underlying biosynthesis of the health and nutrition related nutraceuticals. It also explores the preci...
O suicídio é uma das principais causas de morte em todo o mundo. A OMS tem-se preocupado em prevenir este fenómeno que é hoje um problema global. Portugal acompanha o panorama internacional neste contexto, com uma taxa que ronda os 10 suicídios por 100 000 habitantes, valor que está abaixo da média europeia. O objetivo geral deste trabalho é o de procurar identificar a realidade nacional neste domínio em termos de distribuição geográfica ao longo da extensão da costa marítima portuguesa, analisando, especificamente, a situação do Domínio Público Marítimo, comparando os resultados com o restante território. São analisados dados do INE por concelho (entre 2000 e 2014) e da...
