O sistema de defesa da mulher é eficaz para promover uma sociedade mais livre, justa e inclusiva? É preciso compreender os fenômenos históricos e culturais da violência de gênero, o alcance da Lei no 11.340 e a atuação do Poder Judiciário. As barreiras são estruturais, institucionais e culturais. A obra apresenta as inquietações da autora, enquanto operadora do direito, de que não tem o Direito Penal atingido os fins para promoção de uma sociedade mais justa e solidária, quando tardiamente descortina o crime, não mais restabelecendo dignidade à vítima ou aos filhos que a tudo assistem; quando a aplicação da sanção penal não faz o autor do delito entender o processo no qual está inserido e o reinsere na sociedade com velhas práticas e modos de proceder, atingindo, mais uma vez, a mulher com quem habita e, nesse ciclo vicioso, planos éticos são perdidos. É urgente a eficácia das pretensões políticas previstas na Lei Maria da Penha.

Em um contexto de grandes disfuncionalidades relativas ao problema da criminalidade, esta obra indagou: quais são os critérios racionais para o Ministério Público estabelecer o objeto do acordo de não persecução penal? Tais critérios se encontram em consonância com o paradigma global da negociação do direito penal? Partiu-se da hipótese inicial de que a discricionariedade persecutória no acordo de não persecução penal deve utilizar critérios racionais de discricionariedade em sentido fraco, bem como de que a limitação legal do objeto do acordo à equivalente funcional de pena mostra-se insuficiente para atender à racionalidade do paradigma global da justiça penal negocial. No intuito de desvelar a resposta correta a tais aporias, utilizou-se, como marco teórico, a teoria do Direito como Integridade de Ronald Dworkin, produzindo, como resultado, uma obra calcada tanto na experiência prática da autora como Promotora de Justiça no Ministério Público do Estado do Espírito Santo, quanto na intensa vivência acadêmica junto ao PPGD da Faculdade de Direito de Vitória ?

Galaxies are vast ensembles of stars, gas and dust, embedded in dark matter halos. They are the basic building blocks of the Universe, gathered in groups, clusters and super-clusters. They exist in many forms, either as spheroids or disks. Classifications, such as the Hubble sequence (based on mass concentration and gas fraction) and the colormagnitude diagram (which separates a blue cloud from a red sequence) help to understand their formation and evolution. Galaxies spend a large part of their lives in the blue cloud, forming stars as spiral or dwarf galaxies. Then, via a mechanism that is still unclear, they stop forming stars and quietly end in the red sequence, as spheroids. This transf...

This book emphasizes the significance of affects, feelings and emotions in how we think about politics, gender and sexuality in Latin America. Considering the complex and even contradictory social processes that the region is experiencing today, many Latin American authors are turning to affect to find a key to understand our present situation, to revisit our history, and to imagine new possibilities for the future. This tendency has shown such a specificity and sometimes departure from northern productions that it compels us to focus more deeply on its own arguments, methods, and critical contributions. This volume features essays that explore the particularities of Latin American ways of thinking about affect and how they can shed new light into our understanding of, gender, sexuality and politics.
How do the islands and archipelagos of the New World figure in Latin American cinema?

Outside the chicken coop that is their home, his father wails in pain from the unbearable cramps brought on by sunstroke after working in the hot fields.
