Diálogos em Ciência da Informação: Mediação e Organização do Conhecimento A Ciência da Informação é um campo de conhecimento entrelaçado por elementos que congregam a produção, organização, representação e uso da informação nos mais diversos contextos. Tais elementos, direta ou indiretamente, estabelecem uma relação de mediação com as pessoas, considerando sua diversidade cultural e os regimes de informação específicos em que estão inseridas. Atento a essa diversidade, este livro apresenta abordagens que congregam uma multiplicidade de olhares sobre os fenômenos informacionais, desde a visibilidade informacional, perpassando por discussões sobre cultura, gênero e identidades étnico-raciais, além de trazer debates em torno da Organização e Representação do Conhecimento. A leitura dos capítulos do presente livro, assinados por autores de diferentes partes do país, permitirá a leitoras e leitores conhecerem os múltiplos diálogos e possibilidades de investigação científica em Mediação e Organização da Informação e do Conhecimento. Dra. Luciane de Fátima Beckman Cavalcante (UFRJ)

Breathing is not a common subject in feminist studies. Breathing Matters introduces this phenomenon as a forceful potentiality for feminist intersec-tional theories, politics, and social and environmental justice. By analyzing the material and discursive as well as the natural and cultural enactments of breath in black lung disease, phone sex work, and anxieties and panic attacks, Breathing Matters proposes a nonuniver salizing and politicized understanding of embodiment. In this approach, human bodies are conceptualized as agential actors of intersectional poli-tics. Magdalena Górska argues that struggles for breath and for breathable lives are matters of differential forms of political pr...

Climate change has been a central concern over recent years, with visible and highly publicized consequences such as melting Arctic ice and mountain glaciers, rising sea levels, and the submersion of low-lying coastal areas during mid-latitude and tropical cyclones. This book presents a review of the spatial impacts of contemporary climate change, with a focus on a systematic, multi-scalar approach. Beyond the facts – rises in temperature, changes in the spatial distribution of precipitation, melting of the marine and terrestrial cryosphere, changes in hydrological regimes at high and medium latitudes, etc. – it also analyzes the geopolitical consequences in the Arctic and Central Asia, changes to Mediterranean culture and to viticulture on a global scale, as well as impacts on the distribution of life, for example, in the Amazon rainforest, in large biomes on a global scale, and for birds.
