Justice and Democracy in Brazil
This book details the struggle to establish and maintain democracy and justice in Brazil after 2000. From 1964 to 1984, Brazil had a dictatorship, which was followed by democratic elections. Later, from 2003 to 2016, the nation enjoyed a very popular and democratic government under President Lula and President Dilma, who created many social and educational programs that raised 32 million people out of extreme poverty. However, as this book highlights, since 2013, the nation has witnessed the rise of a very conservative movement, which led to the impeachment of President Dilma (2016), to the imprisonment of President Lula (2018) and to the election of a right-wing president, who represented a decline in democracy and rights from 2018 to 2022. In 2022, we had new elections, with the victory of President Lula, who took office on January 1, 2023. This book advocates for a new period in Brazilian politics, with full democracy, respect for the rule of law and social justice.

The Emperor's halo: An essay on art and law in medieval political iconography
The portraits of kings that we present in this book allow us to think about the complex relationship between law, religion and sovereign power in the Middle Ages. We seek to answer the question about how medieval artists saw the relationship between king, law and faith and how these works of art helped to build, on the visual plane, the symbolic legitimacy of sovereign power. Following the historical trail of Peterson, Schmitt, Kantorowicz and Agamben, we can observe today the relationship between the body and the acclamation and glorification of the sovereign inscribed in these works of art. They are paintings, frescos and illuminations that constitute the founding political iconography of the image that we have and make of Law and the State. The chronological organization of the images corresponds to Kantorowicz's thesis, according to which the mystical body of the king had first, a Christocentric, then a legal and, finally, a governmental foundation. First, the king as an image of Christ, then, as an image of Law and Justice, and finally, in the early Middle Ages, the king as a government.

Law and Literature
María José Falcón y Tella invites us on a fascinating journey through the world of law and literature, travelling through the different eras and exploring eternal and as such current issues such as justice, power, resistance, vengeance, rights, and duties. This is an unending conversation, which brings us back to Sophocles and Dickens, Cervantes and Kafka, Dostoyevsky and Melville, among many others. There are many ways to approach the concept of “Law and Literature”. In the classical manner, the author distinguishes three paths: the Law of Literature, involving a technical approach to the literary theme; Law as Literature, a hermeneutical and rhetorical approach to examining legal texts; and finally, Law in Literature, which is undoubtedly the most fertile and documented perspective (the fundamental part of the work focusses on this direction). This timely volume offers an introduction to this enormous field of study, which was born in the United States over a century ago and is currently taking root in the European continent.
Direito e crítica
O livro organizado pelos professores Luis Carlos Cancellier de Olivo, Alexandre Botelho e Sergio Ricardo Ferreira Mota reúne estudos desenvolvidos por professores, alunos e ex-alunos dos cursos do mestrado e do doutorado no Programa de Pós-Graduação em Direito (PPGD) da Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC). A obra é composta de artigos elaborados em razão da pretensão de se homenagear o Professor Antonio Carlos Wolkmer, aposentado na UFSC. Os estudos desenvolvidos no PPGD da UFSC representam importante contribuição para as Ciências Jurídicas no Brasil, motivo pelo qual, há tempos, o PPGD da UFSC mantém o Conceito CAPES 6 perante a Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior (CAPES), o conceito mais alto concedido, ainda hoje, a um programa de pós-graduação em Direito no Brasil.
Social Change, Industrialization, and the Service Economy in São Paulo, 1950-2020
In the 1950s–80s, Brazil built one of the most advanced industrial networks among the "developing" countries, initially concentrated in the state of São Paulo. But from the 1980s, decentralization of industry spread to other states reducing São Paulo's relative importance in the country's industrial product. This volume draws on social, economic, and demographic data to document the accelerated industrialization of the state and its subsequent shift to a service economy amidst worsening social and economic inequality. Through its cultural institutions, universities, banking, and corporate sectors, the municipality of São Paulo would become a world metropolis. At the same time, given its rapid growth from 2 million to 12 million residents in this period, São Paulo dealt with problems of distribution, housing, and governance. This significant volume elucidates these and other trends during the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries, and will be an invaluable reference for scholars of history, policy, and the economy in Latin America.
