Ana Luísa Janeira: de viagem pela interdisciplinaridade
Este livro, organizado por Judite Maria Zamith Cruz, Ana Maria Haddad Baptista e Associação EntreSéculos (AES), reúne textos que abordam a trajetória e o reconhecido trabalho interdisciplinar de Ana Luísa Janeira, doutora em filosofia pela Sorbonne. "Nessa medida, Ana Luísa Janeira, sob nossa perspectiva, se destaca não somente por ser, academicamente, uma doutora em filosofia pela Sorbonne. Temos que ter, essencialmente, clareza: não basta ter títulos acadêmicos. Não basta, jamais, ser formado em Filosofia para ser filósofo. Não basta ser um bacharel em História para ser um historiador. Assim como ganhar prêmios e condecorações, que por diversas vezes, não traduzem os rea...

Negotiations of Migration
At a time when migration is mostly discussed in terms of “conflict” and “crisis”, it is decidedly important to acknowledge the discursive traditions, narrative patterns, and conceptual categories that continue to inform how migration is represented, analyzed and theorized in contemporary Europe. This volume focuses on the potential of artistic and critical practices to challenge hegemonic framings of migration and embrace the ambivalence inherent in migration as a conflictual, often violent, yet also liberating uprooting. By placing special emphasis on “peripheral” perspectives and subject positions, the volume provides new insights into topics such as belonging and exclusion, the “migrant crisis”, and memory. By bringing into dialogue creative practices and academic discourses, it explores how new modes of seeing and theorizing may emerge through experiences and representations of migration. Situated within the field of literary and cultural studies, it complements historical and social analyses in the emerging interdisciplinary field of migration studies.
ADMINISTRAÇÃO Coletânea de escritos científicos
Encontram-se atualmente na literatura sobre gestão de pessoas alguns trabalhos, desenvolvidos por diferentes autores, que buscam retratar problemas e desconfortos presentes no cotidiano das pessoas que podem reduzir sua produtividade e gerar conflitos e aborrecimentos. Por conseguinte, este trabalho busca abordar as consequências que os ruídos acima do normal, ou seja, 50 dB, acarretam ao ser humano. Observam-se na cidade de Manaus, em áreas residenciais, muitas edificações que se destinam ao lazer, diversão, alimentação e outros. Conquanto seja da natureza humana e pertinente ao cidadão o direito ao lazer, tais usos deverão respeitar a vizinhança, garantindo níveis de pressão sonora confortáveis, que expressem a normalidade dessas comunidades.
The Great Escape That Changed Africa's Future
This is the story of the dramatic clandestine escape, in June of 1961, of sixty African students from Portugal across Spain and into France. Most were Angolan intellectuals. Some were from Mozambique and others from Guinea-Bissau, the Cape Verde Islands, and São Tomé-and-Principe. Soon after the first anti-colonial armed rebellions broke out in Angola (March 1961), the student community in Portugal suffered increasing harassment by the Portuguese political police. Passports were confiscated and some arrests of suspected student leaders occurred. Many students - men and women - decided to flee Portugal illegally. It was risky business. False passports from friendly African countries had to ...
Migrant Marginality
This edited book uses migrant marginality to problematize several different aspects of global migration. It examines how many different societies have defined their national identities, cultural values and terms of political membership through (and in opposition to) constructions of migrants and migration. The book includes case studies from Western and Eastern Europe, North America and the Caribbean. It is organized into thematic sections that illustrate how different aspects of migrant marginality have unfolded across several national contexts. The first section of the book examines the limitations of multicultural policies that have been used to incorporate migrants into the host society....
Modernity in Black and White
Modernity in Black and White provides a groundbreaking account of modern art and modernism in Brazil. Departing from previous accounts, mostly restricted to the elite arenas of literature, fine art and architecture, the book situates cultural debates within the wider currents of Brazilian life. From the rise of the first favelas, in the 1890s and 1900s, to the creation of samba and modern carnival, over the 1910s and 1920s, and tracking the expansion of mass media and graphic design, into the 1930s and 1940s, it foregrounds aspects of urban popular culture that have been systematically overlooked. Against this backdrop, Cardoso provides a radical re-reading of Antropofagia and other modernist currents, locating them within a broader field of cultural modernization. Combining extensive research with close readings of a range of visual cultural production, the volume brings to light a vast archive of art and images, all but unknown outside Brazil.
