Honor Killings
In "Honor Killings: Cultural Traditions and the Fight for Women's Rights," Maria Santos delves into the complex and deeply rooted practice of honor killings, examining the historical context, cultural perspectives, ethical dilemmas, and societal impact of this horrific violence against women. She evaluates the role of culture and tradition in perpetuating honor killings, explores the fight for women's rights through international human rights frameworks, activism, and legal reforms, and presents compelling case studies from Pakistan, India, and Western countries. Santos also offers prevention and intervention strategies, emphasizing the importance of education, support services, and empowering women towards a future free from honor killings. This thought-provoking book sheds light on a critical issue and calls for collective action towards sustainable change.
Elise
Após se conhecerem na escola, Maria e Elise vivem um romance em alto mar. Atravessando o tempo e o espaço, Maria registra histórias desse amor em seu diário. O livro experimenta as sensações que a paixão é capaz de provocar e exigir, as violências e consequências do Eros. A narrativa foge dos meios tradicionais e lança-se pela acronicidade e pela intensa poética. As propostas sintáticas embaralham o jogo do texto. Ao longo do convívio e dos apertos da relação, Elise começa a congelar, parando completamente de se mexer: torna-se um piano. A história é dividida em três partes, a primeira introduz o tempo narrativo, a segunda escreve o diário dos dias vividos ao mar e a terceira é a dramaturgia dessa viagem// desse amor.
Causatives in Minimalism
This monograph studies issues of current minimalist concern, such as whether differences in the expression of argument and syntactic structure can all be attributed to the parameterization of specific functional heads. In particular, this book studies in-depth the extent to which variation in the expression of causation, available both intra- and crosslinguistically, can be accounted for by appealing only to the microparameterization of the causative head, Cause, as previously argued for by linguists such as Pylkkanen. It concludes that the microparameterization of Cause may explain some major characteristics associated with causatives, but it cannot be regarded as the only explanation behind variation in these structures. The book includes relevant discussion on argument structure and looks in detail at languages, such as the Uto-Aztecan Hiaki, that have not received much attention before. It is mostly intended for an audience interested in theoretical approaches to argument structure and variation."

Integrating Ecohydraulics in River Restoration
Rivers have been intensively degraded due to increasing anthropogenic impacts from a growing population in a continuously developing world. Accordingly, most rivers suffer from pressures as a result of increasing dam and weir construction, habitat degradation, flow regulation, water pollution/abstraction, and the spread of invasive species. Science-based knowledge regarding solutions to counteract the effects of river degradation, and melding principles of aquatic ecology and engineering hydraulics, is thus urgently needed to guide present and future river restoration actions. This Special Issue gathers a coherent set of studies from different geographic contexts, on fundamental and applied ...
