Light alkanes tend to be resistant to many forms of activation. The horizontal approach of the present book covers homogeneous, heterogeneous and biological catalysis, thus allowing readers to gain an awareness of progress and ideas in research areas different from their own. The book contains both general chapters, giving an overview of the subject, and specialised contributions that deal with the details and state of the art. A specialist report is also included which gives a critical insight into current progress and discusses future prospects and major challenges. Audience: Newcomers and senior researchers in the field of alkane activation. The mixed theoretical and practical approach will be of interest to researchers and industrialists alike.
Pese embora a prova por reconhecimento sustente, com frequência, a convicção do julgador em relação à autoria dos delitos, nem sempre conduz a resultados credíveis, quer em razão da vulnerabilidade da memória a múltiplas influências externas, quer em virtude de uma certa permeabilidade deste meio probatório ao incumprimento do esquema procedimental a que o legislador sujeitou a sua produção. Foi a constatação destes problemas, associada ao advento da inteligência artificial, que despertou o interesse na procura de modernas diligências identificativas. Nesta senda, no presente estudo, equacionámos a utilização da tecnologia de reconhecimento facial como ferramenta destinada a esclarecer, no processo-crime, a identidade do autor da infração penal.
Todos os dias surgem casos de demonstração de delitos com base em elementos trazidos por privados, sejam fotografias, vídeos, ficheiros informáticos, entre muitos outros. A lei portuguesa não dá solução genérica à questão de saber se tais elementos são admissíveis como prova de crime. A resposta obtém-se examinando se as regras probatórias vinculam os privados, e em que termos, sendo fundamental apurar o sentido e o regime das proibições de prova. É também imperioso compreender que interferência tem na questão o juízo sobre a ilicitude penal substantiva, e se a conclusão pela justificação de um acto típico implica a aceitação num processo da prova que por ele se haja obtido. O presente trabalho dá resposta a estas questões oferecendo aos práticos critérios de decisão de casos da vida.
A gestão de negócios tem uma acentuada relevância prática, no domínio dos tribunais e dos patrocínios judiciários. O enriquecimento sem causa acompanha as diversas deslocações patrimoniais que não devam subsistir. A responsabilidade civil é um instituto transversal a todo o Direito. Protege o património e a esfera moral das pessoas singulares e coletivas e previne a ocorrência de danos. Tem desenvolvimentos decisivos, nas áreas dos direitos de personalidade, da responsabilidade do Estado, dos acidentes de viação, dos produtos defeituosos e dos danos ambientais. Estes três institutos, com natural relevo para a responsabilidade civil, conhecem desenvolvimentos jurisprudenciais...
This monograph is the first to identify an important theoretical overlap between Anglo-Saxon and Lusophone postcolonial theories: the systematic neglect of gender and sexual variables in the analysis of the marketing of cultural difference in the post colonial era. Drawing on the theoretical work of Graham Huggan and Boaventura de Sousa Santos, the author of this study discusses the political significance of this neglect by focusing on the asymmetrical positions occupied by two widely acclaimed Lusophone women writers, Paulina Chiziane of Mozambique and Lídia Jorge of Portugal. The book asks how these two contemporary writers deal with master narratives such as Lusofonia, exoticism, capitalism and post colonialism in their novels, and examines the implications of placing gender and sexual difference at the heart of the 'post colonial exotic'.
