Food and Fuel
This book is a contribution of the authors to the food - fuel debate. During 2007 and 2008 several factors led to the food inflation problem: growing population, income distribution, urbanization, biofuel, social programs, production scarcity etc.. Biofuel got most of the blame for food inflation but its responsibility was only limited. There are several possibilities of solving the food inflation problem that are discussed this book. It explores the example of Brazil’s agricultural sector, where a quiet revolution occurred in the last 15 years. This development is leading to Brazil becoming one of the largest food exporters globally. This position will strengthen as an additional 100 mill...
Waste Management Practices in Developing Countries
This book provides insights into waste management practices in developing countries, and the application of research and innovation in finding appropriate solutions to improved waste management.

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.

Agronegócio do Brasil
Com prefácio do Ministro Roberto Rodrigues, o livro é uma coletânea de textos rápidos em agronegócios. Há textos que foram publicados nos jornais O Estado de São Paulo e Valor Econômico, na revista Agroanalysis da Fundação Getúlio Vargas, bem como sínteses de artigos editados em congressos no Brasil e no exterior e em periódicos nacionais e internacionais.
Contratos Agrários
Os contratos agrários são essenciais para a organização dos agronegócios. A cessão temporária da terra, normatizada pelo Estatuto da Terra nas modalidades de arrendamento e de parceria, com exigência de observância de cláusulas obrigatórias, mostra-se, cada vez mais, como alternativa importante de organização dos negócios agrários modernos, em que o investimento da atividade se dissocia do investimento imobiliário. No novo contexto do agronegócio, empresarial, esses contratos ganham contornos que demandam uma nova perspectiva da legislação agrária, adequada aos novos tempos. Na presente obra, as disposições da Lei Agrária se compatibilizam com os interesses legítimos das empresas agrárias a partir do princípio da agrariedade e da função social da propriedade, compatibilizando novas modalidades contratuais com as cláusulas obrigatórias estabelecidas pela legislação.
