Direito e Democracia
Em "Direito e Democracia: Jurisdição Constitucional Agressiva", uma coletânea provocativa, pesquisadores exploram as nuances da jurisdição constitucional na atualidade. Inspirados pela obra de Lenio Streck, os autores discutem a fragilização dos direitos dos trabalhadores nas gig economies, os dilemas da discricionariedade judicial e os desafios da nova hermenêutica, abrangendo temas como direitos dos animais e retrocessos em direitos humanos. Com um olhar crítico sobre o protagonismo judicial e suas implicações na democracia brasileira, a obra oferece uma reflexão essencial sobre a necessidade de critérios objetivos nas decisões judiciais, promovendo um diálogo profundo entre o direito, a sociedade e os direitos fundamentais. Uma leitura indispensável para quem busca entender os desafios contemporâneos do sistema jurídico brasileiro.

Home Reading Service
In this poignant novel, a man guilty of a minor offense finds purpose unexpectedly by way of his punishment—reading to others. After an accident—or “the misfortune,” as his cancer-ridden father’s caretaker, Celeste, calls it—Eduardo is sentenced to a year of community service reading to the elderly and disabled. Stripped of his driver’s license and feeling impotent as he nears thirty-five, he leads a dull, lonely life, chatting occasionally with the waitresses of a local restaurant or walking the streets of Cuernavaca. Once a quiet town known for its lush gardens and swimming pools, the “City of Eternal Spring” is now plagued by robberies, kidnappings, and the other myriad ...

Empty Wardrobes
A previously untranslated classic of Portuguese feminist literature originally published in 1978, Carvalho's Empty Wardrobes introduces English-speaking readers to a forgotten and underappreciated woman writer a la recent publishing sensations Lucia Berlin, Natalia Ginzburg, Ingeborg Bachmann, Silvina Ocampo, and Armonia Somers. Empty Wardrobes is a tightly plotted, highly entertaining read, that, thanks to an ingenious detached narrative technique (one that makes the plot all the more fun to revisit and rethink), is both darkly humorous and devastatingly true.

Inclusion Matters
This report tries to put boundaries around the abstraction that is "social inclusion". It is intended for policy makers, academics, activists and development partners - indeed anyone who is curious about how to address inclusion in a world that is witness to intense demographic, spatial, economic and technological transitions. Placing the discussion of social inclusion within such global transitions and transformations, it argues that social inclusion is an evolving agenda. While it does not purport to provide definitive answers as to how to achieve social inclusion in any given context, the report offers an easy-to-use definition and a framework to assist practitioners in asking, outlining ...
