Com a presente obra coletiva visa-se a partilha de experiências, de soluções e de perspectivas de futuro de três sistemas ligados por questões económicas e jurídicas, mas também sociais e culturais. Esta inegável proximidade é contrabalançada por importantes diferenças não apenas regulatórias, mas também ao nível da maturidade dos respetivos sistemas financeiros. Em Angola, a tão antecipada e desejada abertura do mercado de capitais ao investimento privado globalizado será em breve uma realidade. O Direito brasileiro, marcado pela dinâmica bolsa de São Paulo e influenciado pela doutrina estadunidense, assume-se como um inegável contraponto, prático e teórico, das conceções jurídicas e regulatórias que moldam o Velho Continente. Por fim, o Direito português, fortemente influenciado pelo Direito da União Europeia, consubstancia um importante tubo de ensaio para possíveis reformas dos demais países lusófonos.
'NDiaye is a hypnotic storyteller with an unflinching understanding of the rock-bottom reality of most people's life.' New York Times ' One of France's most exciting prose stylists.' The Guardian. Obsessed by her encounters with the mysterious green women, and haunted by the Garonne River, a nameless narrator seeks them out in La Roele, Paris, Marseille, and Ouagadougou. Each encounter reveals different aspects of the women; real or imagined, dead or alive, seductive or suicidal, driving the narrator deeper into her obsession, in this unsettling exploration of identity, memory and paranoia. Self Portrait in Green is the multi-prize winning, Marie NDiaye's brilliant subversion of the memoir. Written in diary entries, with lyrical prose and dreamlike imagery, we start with and return to the river, which mirrors the narrative by posing more questions than it answers.

A previously untranslated classic of Portuguese feminist literature originally published in 1978, Carvalho's Empty Wardrobes introduces English-speaking readers to a forgotten and underappreciated woman writer a la recent publishing sensations Lucia Berlin, Natalia Ginzburg, Ingeborg Bachmann, Silvina Ocampo, and Armonia Somers. Empty Wardrobes is a tightly plotted, highly entertaining read, that, thanks to an ingenious detached narrative technique (one that makes the plot all the more fun to revisit and rethink), is both darkly humorous and devastatingly true.
