A obra "Território e Educação: Sujeitos do Campo da Microrregião de Pará de Minas" é resultado da leitura de mundo da autora a partir de suas vivências na Educação do Campo na microrregião de Pará de Minas no Estado de Minas Gerais/Brasil. A obra nos convida, com sensibilidade de uma historiadora e educadora humanista, a compreender que os processos educativos acontecem para além dos muros da escola, mas por meio do território, do trabalho, da luta pela terra, pelas ausências e pelas resistências que a vida cotidiana exige dos cidadãos e cidadãs do campo. Ao iluminar aspectos das comunidades do campo da microrregião de Pará de Minas, Lóren Graziela Carneiro Lima nos provo...
This deeply personal account of emotion and vulnerability draws upon anecdotes related to individual works of art to present a chronicle of how people have shown emotion before works of art in the past.
Providing a distillation of knowledge in the various disciplines of arts education (dance, drama, music, literature and poetry and visual arts), this essential handbook synthesizes existing research literature, reflects on the past, and contributes to shaping the future of the respective and integrated disciplines of arts education. While research can at times seem distant from practice, the Handbook aims to maintain connection with the live practice of art and of education, capturing the vibrancy and best thinking in the field of theory and practice. The Handbook is organized into 13 sections, each focusing on a major area or issue in arts education research.

This remarkable story begins in the years following the Civil War, when reformers—emboldened by the egalitarian rhetoric of the post–Civil War era—pressed New York City's oldest institution of higher learning to admit women in the 1870s. Their effort failed, but within twenty years Barnard College was founded, creating a refuge for women scholars at Columbia, as well as an academic beachhead "from which women would make incursions into the larger university." By 1950, Columbia was granting more advanced degrees to women and hiring more female faculty than any other university in the country. In Changing the Subject, Rosalind Rosenberg shows how this century-long struggle transcended it...
The Almanac of Women and Minorities in World Politics is a reference book that provides political and biographical details on the achievements of women and minorities in the executive, legislative, and judicial branches of every nation (and most dependent territories) in the world. The "Executive" section on a particular country might include information on that country's first woman president, or its first minority prime minister, for example. It also includes information on the first female cabinet member, and first female ambassador. Likewise, the "Legislative" section provides details on the first women and minority members of the national parliament. And, the "Judicial" section might give data on the country's first women and minority judges. The book also features a number of shorter, politically-oriented biographical sketches that chronicle all the women--and certain minority individuals--who have influenced the political environment of their nation, either locally or internationally, both adversely and constructively, since 1900.

This book provides a comprehensive exploration into the identification and development of sustainable business models as well as their implementation, management and evaluation. With ever-increasing pressure on organisations to respond to societal change and improve competition through sustainable business model innovation (SBMI), this book aims to contribute to the knowledge of their design and management. The chapters explore the role of partnerships, the Internet of Things and the circular economy, among other factors, in developing SBM and how SBMI is facilitated through ideation and in entrepreneurial settings. Providing new typologies, patterns and a framework to evaluate the level of sustainability of business models, this book critically reviews existing literature on the topic to examine the potential of SBMI in research and in practice. The contributing authors employ a number of case studies and case examples to illustrate the integration of sustainable business models throughout the value chain, and their influence on wider social, environmental and business activities.
