As firmas tomaram conta de tudo
A expansão do modelo produtivo do agronegócio tem reconfigurado a questão agrária brasileira e implicado em novas formas de uso, posse e propriedade da terra, de modo a ocasionar e intensificar os conflitos sociais, ambientais e territoriais. Isso ocorre mediante à territorialização de grandes corporações hegemônicas do agronegócio, que dispõem de diversas estratégias para se apropriar de extensas parcelas de terras, exercendo o controle direto sobre os territórios camponeses e agravando os processos de latifundiarização e concentração fundiária. Este livro revela como "as firmas tomaram conta de tudo", o que possibilitou identificar as estratégias de territorialização das corporações do agronegócio voltadas ao controle e à apropriação da terra, resultando num cenário marcado pelo redimensionamento da questão agrária e da dinâmica territorial. Procura-se, assim, desvelar e denunciar os impactos do agronegócio, que tem se apropriado de terras e territórios camponeses à medida que expande a monocultura e o latifúndio.
Coastal Geography in Northeast Brazil
This book studies the transformation of modern maritimity practices in coastal areas (such as swimming, navigation and tourism) and their implications to the development of Brazilian coastal cities, with an emphasis on the Northeast part of the country. It is a reflection on coastal geography in the tropics and the contemporary valorization of coastal cities from a socioeconomic, technological and symbolical point of view. The book highlights local fluxes on a regional and local scale, showing the incorporation of beach zones to spaces which were previously associated with so called traditional coastal practices (fishing activities and as harboring points). This book is dedicated to geography researchers and students.

Naval Advising and Assistance
This original edited volume is the only book on naval advising. Drawing upon the work of scholars and practitioners from all over the world, it takes a comparative and global approach to examining the history, theory and evolution of naval advising and assistance. Starting with a brief history of the evolution of naval advising, the book then moves to late-19th century naval advising efforts. These generally involved individuals such as the American adventurer in China, Philo McGiffin, but also included State-sponsored formal missions such as the first such US effort: Colonel John Lay’s 1870s mission to Egypt. A comparative multi-national examination of the ability of non-European States s...
It’s All True
"This is an extremely rigorous, thorough piece of superior scholarship on one of the most important figures in the history of cinema. Benamou introduces a wealth of material on the production process and the repercussions of this project in Latin America, which have been entirely missing from earlier, auteur-centered accounts; this alone makes it a book of great importance. We can't ask for a more definitive, groundbreaking study than the one Benamou has given us."—Bill Nichols, author of Maya Deren and the American Avant-Garde
