O presente livro reúne 15 estudos que versam sobre perspectivas inter, trans e multidisciplinares sobre questões indígenas. Estudos linguísticos sobre linguagens e línguas indígenas brasileiras. Estudos sociológicos, biológicos/ecológicos, políticos e antropológicos sobre culturas/sociedades/comunidades, identidades, tradições, vivências e outras perspectivas de povos indígenas brasileiros. Estudos sobre as representações dos indígenas na literatura brasileira. Estudos sobre análises de produções literárias/acadêmicas de escritores/pesquisadores indígenas. Estudos que relacionam os povos indígenas à educação no Brasil. Estudos descritivos sobre os direitos específicos dos povos indígenas atuais, bem como sobre processos históricos, pretéritos e contemporâneos, de luta por tais direitos e pela sua efetivação. A obra conta com autores de diversas regiões do Brasil e, embora por focos diferenciados de cada autor(a), tem uma essência una, que é, por meio da escrita e da denúncia acadêmica, a luta por uma maior valorização e um maior respeito das/às culturas indígenas brasileiras, as quais representam nossas origens.

O presente livro reúne 10 estudos que abordam perspectivas diversas sobre questões indígenas. São reflexões de pesquisadores de várias regiões do país e de diferentes universidades, que estão se voltando para a temática indígena, a fim de dar voz e visibilidade a esses sujeitos. Os estudos reunidos nesta coletânea apresentam ainda um profundo rio de possibilidades de pesquisa, reflexões e análises. Portanto, o objetivo, ao reunir essas diferentes visões em torno da temática indígena, é promover a reflexão e o respeito aos mais de 305 povos indígenas, falantes de mais de 274 línguas existentes no Brasil. Cabe destacar que todos os estudos presentes nesta coletânea estão diretamente ligados com a temática indígena e juntos reafirmam a necessidade de dar voz e espaço para essas sociedades se reafirmarem.
The oceans harbor the majority of the Earth ́s biodiversity. Marine organisms/microorganisms provide a diverse array of natural products, which are important sources of biologically active agents with unique chemical structures and a broad range of medical and biotechnological applications. The XVI MaNaPro and XI ECMNP conferences aim to present advances and future perspectives on marine natural product research to the scientific community by gathering scientists who work in marine chemistry and related scientific fields from all over the world and at different seniority levels. This Special Issue was organized on the occasion of the 2nd joint XVI MaNaPro and XI ECMNP meeting (http://wmnp2019.ipleiria.pt/) held in Peniche, Portugal, in 2019. It comprises 12 original research articles that exemplify research performed in the scope of the conference topics.
This book presents the proceedings of the 21st Congress of the International Ergonomics Association (IEA 2021), held online on June 13-18, 2021. By highlighting the latest theories and models, as well as cutting-edge technologies and applications, and by combining findings from a range of disciplines including engineering, design, robotics, healthcare, management, computer science, human biology and behavioral science, it provides researchers and practitioners alike with a comprehensive, timely guide on human factors and ergonomics. It also offers an excellent source of innovative ideas to stimulate future discussions and developments aimed at applying knowledge and techniques to optimize sy...
This book presents the complete formulation of a new advanced discretization meshless technique: the Natural Neighbour Radial Point Interpolation Method (NNRPIM). In addition, two of the most popular meshless methods, the EFGM and the RPIM, are fully presented. Being a truly meshless method, the major advantages of the NNRPIM over the FEM and other meshless methods, are the remeshing flexibility and the higher accuracy of the obtained variable field. Using the natural neighbour concept, the NNRPIM permits to determine organically the influence-domain, resembling the cellulae natural behaviour. This innovation permits the analysis of convex boundaries and extremely irregular meshes, which is an advantage in the biomechanical analysis, with no extra computational effort associated. This volume shows how to extend the NNRPIM to the bone tissue remodelling analysis, expecting to contribute with new numerical tools and strategies in order to permit a more efficient numerical biomechanical analysis.
Fifty years after the foundation of the OAU and the consolidation of most African states and institutions, the international panorama and Africa’s position in it have changed considerably. The world's geopolitical and economic configuration has evolved, with new actors appearing in a new period of globalization. In tone with ECAS 2013, this volume proposes that the experiences appearing in Africa question dominant paradigms in terms of political practice and academic reflection and thus offer a clear challenge to the academic community. The volume offers clues to answer questions such as: What is the impact of the current processes of globalization for African countries and African citizens? How should African Studies be engaged to gauge African dynamics, both at a local and global level? What interdisciplinary means and tools should be brought in to produce an epistemologically relevant view (or narrative) of the issues under analysis?
Innovation and Entrepreneurship 3rd Edition is an accessible text on innovation and entrepreneurship aimed specifically at undergraduate students studying business and management studies, but also those on engineering and science degrees with management courses. The text applies key theories and research on innovation and entrepreneurship and then reviews and synthesises those theories and research to apply them in a much broader and contemporary context, including the corporate and public services, emerging technologies and economies, and sustainability and development and creating and capturing value from innovation and entrepreneurship. In this third edition the authors continue to adopt an explicit process model to help organise the material with clear links between innovation and entrepreneurship. This text has been designed to be fully integrated with the Innovation Portal at www.innovation-portal.info, which contains an extensive collection of additional resources for both lecturers and students, including teaching resources, case studies, media clips, innovation tools, seminar and assessment activities and test questions.
