Regulação das relações de consumo
A proteção dos consumidores é uma temática da maior importância devido ao amplo reconhecimento dos direitos dos consumidores e da necessidade da sua afirmação por todo o mundo. O trabalho desenvolvido pela UNCTAD - Conferência das Nações Unidas sobre o Comércio e Desenvolvimento, guardiã das Linhas Diretrizes das Nações Unidas sobre a Proteção dos Consumidores (1985), o único instrumento plenamente global neste domínio, assim o confirma. A crescente digitalização da economia tem vindo a proporcionar o acesso dos consumidores a novos produtos e serviços, envolvendo, todavia, muitos desafios em matéria de dados pessoais, práticas enganosas e fraudulentas, resolução de ...
Compliance e relações de consumo
Esta obra, construída a muitas mãos, é o resultado da evidente necessidade de aproximação entre teoria e prática para resposta aos desafios do mercado de consumo nos dias que seguem. É objeto de repetidas considerações a qualidade da legislação brasileira em matéria de defesa do consumidor. De fato, em poucos sistemas jurídicos o direito do consumidor conta com uma disciplina normativa como no Brasil, com assento constitucional e uma codificação cuja influência dogmática ultrapassa os limites da relação de consumo em si, avançando sobre os domínios do direito privado em geral e sobre o processo civil. Por outro lado, são conhecidos os reclamos pela falta de efetividade ...

Monopolies and Underdevelopment
This ambitious analysis is centered on the evolution of economic structures in colonized economies, showing the effects of these structures on today’s global reality for all economies, whether they are considered ‘developed’ or ‘underdeveloped.’ With a comprehensive scope encompassing economic structures and their influence on the growth of nations from past to present, Calixto Salomão Filho delves into issues of development, economic structures, social problems, monopolies, globalization, and poverty. This book features a unique combination of economic and legal analysis of development, including the examination of underdevelopment trends based on monopoly growth and the triple drain effects of monopolies on national economies. The result is an illuminating study of historical restriction and exploitation and its impact on present day markets around the world. Monopolies and Underdevelopment will capture the interest of scholars and readers of the economic theory of development, economic history of underdeveloped countries, and law and development; as well as those involved in Latin American and South Asian studies, international comparative law, and legal history.
The First Christian Historian
As the first historian of Christianity, Luke's reliability is vigorously disputed among scholars. The author of the Acts is often accused of being a biased, imprecise, and anti-Jewish historian who created a distorted portrait of Paul. Daniel Marguerat tries to avoid being caught in this true/false quagmire when examining Luke's interpretation of history. Instead he combines different tools - reflection upon historiography, the rules of ancient historians and narrative criticism - to analyse the Acts and gauge the historiographical aims of their author. Marguerat examines the construction of the narrative, the framing of the plot and the characterization, and places his evaluation firmly in the framework of ancient historiography, where history reflects tradition and not documentation. This is a fresh and original approach to the classic themes of Lucan theology: Christianity between Jerusalem and Rome, the image of God, the work of the Spirit, the unity of Luke and the Acts.

El estrecho dudoso is a masterful and compelling poetic account of early colonial Central America, and the translation is likewise masterful." --Colonial Latin American Historical Review In this book-length poem, Nicaraguan priest and revolutionary Ernesto Cardenal tells the story of the Spanish conquest of Central America from the "discovery" of the American continent to recent historical events.

The Oxford Handbook of Cinematic Listening
The Oxford Handbook of Cinematic Listening explores the place of cinema in the history of listening. It looks at the ways in which listening to film is situated in textual, spatial, and social practices, and also studies how cinematic modes of listening have extended into other media and everyday experiences.

Part II ("Locations and Relocations") focuses on specific venues and presentational practices from roadshow movi...
