Rastros do neoliberalismo no campo da Educação

O livro é fruto de um conjunto de pesquisas e reflexões que têm sido produzidas, nos anos recentes, sobre os rastros do neoliberalismo no campo da Educação.

  • Categories: Art

L'artiste native de Cuba Carmen Herrera (née en 1915) peint depuis plus de sept décennies, mais ce n'est que ces dernières années que la reconnaissance pour son travail a projeté l'artiste vers la notoriété internationale.

Puis l'ouvrage situe son travail dans le contexte d'un art d'avant-garde latino-améric...

The Rocky Horror Show

Rock Musical Characters: 7 males, 3 females Scenery: Interior That sweet transvestite and his motley crew did the time warp on Broadway in a 25th anniversary revival.

"A socko wacko weirdo rock concert."-WNBC TV. "A musical that deals with mutating identity and time warps becomes one of the most mutated, time warped phenomena in show business."-N.Y. Times. "Campy trash."-Time.
