Educação em evolução
Este livro, apesar de ter sido composto em um momento tardio da pandemia de covid-19 que nos atinge desde 2020, ainda apresenta sua influência. Entendemos que a educação e seus métodos não são estáticos, basta voltar nossos olhos às teorias de ensino e aprendizagem ao longo do tempo. Sendo assim, e tendo em mente a reviravolta pandêmica que todos experienciamos, a mudança e evolução contínua não param e são representadas nos escritos aqui dispostos.
Language Policies in Higher Education
Higher education institutions (HEIs) are increasingly affected by globalization and internationalization, with implications for language use, teaching and learning in their academic communities. As a consequence, HEIs may change their approach to multilingualism on campus, taking into account language needs as well as opportunities and challenges associated with language diversity. The book aims at discussing aspects for the design of language policies, which could support internationalization and promote multilingualism and participation of different stakeholders. By presenting a language policy model, the book provides an alternative for those engaged in language diversity in HEIs.
Singularidades da formação e do desenvolvimento profissional docente: contextos emergentes na educação
Esta obra problematiza os contextos emergentes, a singularidade das docências e do desenvolvimento profissional com base em seus diversos cenários. A docência possui muitas interfaces, o que exige ações reflexivas e transformadoras sobre as práticas educativas perante os novos cenários, que emergem como desafios e enfrentamentos à Educação do século XXI. Almejamos produzir um espaço de reflexão e resistência, capaz de qualificar práticas educativas, com ações cada vez mais conscientes, críticas e politizadas, favorecendo assim a tomada de decisões competentes em suas múltiplas áreas e seus campos de conhecimento. Logo, é imprescindível assumir uma perspectiva intercultural contextualizada e abrangente dos processos educacionais, apostando em movimentos emancipatórios e mais humanizados para a Educação deste milênio.
The Case for Marriage
A groundbreaking look at marriage, one of the most basic and universal of all human institutions, which reveals the emotional, physical, economic, and sexual benefits that marriage brings to individuals and society as a whole. The Case for Marriage is a critically important intervention in the national debate about the future of family. Based on the authoritative research of family sociologist Linda J. Waite, journalist Maggie Gallagher, and a number of other scholars, this book’s findings dramatically contradict the anti-marriage myths that have become the common sense of most Americans. Today a broad consensus holds that marriage is a bad deal for women, that divorce is better for childr...
Higher Education in Turmoil
Internationalization is a pervasive force shaping and challenging higher education as it faces the new realities and turbulence of globalization. In a thoughtful and provocative way, this book provides a critical perspective on the rationales, benefits, risks, strategies, and outcomes of internationalization.
The Object of the Atlantic
The Object of the Atlantic is a wide-ranging study of the transition from a concern with sovereignty to a concern with things in Iberian Atlantic literature and art produced between 1868 and 1968. Rachel Price uncovers the surprising ways that concrete aesthetics from Cuba, Brazil, and Spain drew not only on global forms of constructivism but also on a history of empire, slavery, and media technologies from the Atlantic world. Analyzing Jose Marti’s notebooks, Joaquim de Sousandrade’s poetry, Ramiro de Maeztu’s essays on things and on slavery, 1920s Cuban literature on economic restructuring, Ferreira Gullar’s theory of the “non-object,” and neoconcrete art, Price shows that the turn to objects—and from these to new media networks—was rooted in the very philosophies of history that helped form the Atlantic world itself.
Assigning Responsibility for Children’s Health When Parents and Authorities Disagree: Whose Child?
This book provides a multidisciplinary analysis of the potential conflict between a government’s duty to protect children and a parent(s)’ right to raise children in a manner they see fit. Using philosophical, bioethical, and legal analysis, the author engages with key scholars in pediatric decision-making and individual and religious rights theory. Going beyond the parent-child dyad, the author is deeply concerned both with the inteests of the broader society and with the appropriate limits of government interference in the private sphere. The text offers a balance of individual and population interests, maximizing liberty but safeguarding against harm. Bioethics and law professors will...
Comparative Labor Law
Economic pressure, as well as transnational and domestic corporate policies, has placed labor law under severe stress. National responses are so deeply embedded in institutions reflecting local traditions that meaningful comparison is daunting. This bo
Media Laboratories
Media Laboratories explores a pivotal time for South American literature of the 1930s and ’40s. Cinema, radio, and the typewriter, once seen as promising catalysts for new kinds of writing, began to be challenged by authors, workers, and the public. What happens when media no longer seem novel and potentially democratic but rather consolidated and dominant? Moving among authors from Brazil, Argentina, and Uruguay, and among the genres of fiction, the essay, popular journalism, and experimental little magazines, Sarah Ann Wells shows how writers on the periphery of global modernity were fashioning alternative approaches to these media. Analyzing authors such as Clarice Lispector, Jorge Luis...
