Estudos Práticos sobre o Direito do Trabalho e Previdenciário

  • Categories: Law

A publicação é fruto do esforço coletivo de professores e alunos que compõem o corpo docente e discente da instituição, pelo programa de pós-graduação lato sensu desenvolvido. É possível dizer que o momento (histórico), diante da complexidade dos acontecimentos jurídico-sociais, tem levado e clamado todos que "operam" no campo dos direitos sociais-humanos a empreenderem verdadeira "cruzada" pelos temas sensíveis às relações de produção e vida digna em sociedade. Seja pelo cenário devastador das condições de saúde e segurança do trabalho (tanto no âmbito dos aspectos físicos e mentais); pelos trabalhadores precários terceirizados e/ou uberizados, inclusive os primeiros extensivos à Administração Pública; pelos desafios ainda existentes nas pautas de identidade de gênero, classe, raça, orientação; pelas barreiras do autoempreendedorismo e seus rituais de prazer e sofrimento; pelos obstáculos de efetivação previdenciária em suas variadas formas; ou, ainda, diante dos intermináveis desafios na busca pela efetividade das decisões na justiça do trabalho.

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.

Estudos práticos sobre o Direito do Trabalho e Previdenciário

  • Categories: Law

O Direito do Trabalho e Previdenciário tem enfrentado inúmeros dilemas, sobretudo nos tempos hodiernos. O substrato constitucional, por vezes fragmentado, torna o discurso jurídico ainda mais complexo. A imprescindível reflexão faz-se mister quando se toca no amálgama dos pilares assecuratórios da justiça social, se espraiando pelos ordenamentos jurídicos em comento, nos levando a crer que vale a pena construir uma doutrina crítica permeando os meandros jurídicos vivenciados pelos autores desta obra. Esse é o objetivo do nosso livro, unir mestres e aprendizes numa só atmosfera, despertando nos leitores as inquietações que se ativeram nesta passagem, a partir das provocações aqui lançadas. Perpassando pelos desafios em tempos de pandemia, e os seus reflexos nas relações trabalhistas; até que ponto a proteção de dados da seguridade social foi vilipendiada; análises de natureza internacional, numa perspectiva globalizada; interpretações que convergem todos à busca incessante por garantia de Direitos Fundamentais, na proteção de hipossuficientes nas relações jurídico-trabalhistas e previdenciárias.

The Inter-American System of Human Rights

This book, which can be used as a text for teaching purposes, gives a fascinating, and authoritative treatment both the rights protected by the Inter-American system and of the way in which its institutions work. An important part of the book is a thorough, article by article account of the guarantee in the American Declaration of the Rights and Duties of Man and in the American Convention on Human Rights of civil, political, economic, social and cultural rights in the light of the jurisprudence of the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights and the Inter-American Court of Human Rights, and of the Commission's many country reports on the human rights situation in particular states. There are also chapters on the rights of indigenous peoples, amnesty laws and states of emergencies. The evolution and current methods of work of the Commission and the Court are set out at length and their achievements are critically assessed. The role of non-governmental organisations is also examined in this context. The book will be invaluable to all those interested in the protection of human rights in the Americas and international human rights law generally.

The Last Children of Tokyo

Yoshiro thinks he might never die. A hundred years old and counting, he is one of Japan's many 'old-elderly'; men and women who remember a time before the air and the sea were poisoned, before terrible catastrophe promted Japan to shut itself off from the rest of the world. He may live for decades yet, but he knows his beloved great-grandson - born frail and prone to sickness - might not survive to adulthood. Day after day, it takes all of Yoshiro's sagacity to keep Mumei alive. As hopes for Japan's youngest generation fade, a secretive organisation embarks on an audacious plan to find a cure - might Yoshiro's great-grandson be the key to saving the last children of Tokyo?

Parenting and Couple Relationships Among LGBTQ+ People in Diverse Contexts

This book analyzes how the increasing number of same-sex couples is changing the traditional concepts of family and parenthood, and how these changes affect the psychological studies of family, couple relationships and human development. The majority of chapters included in this contributed volume present results of research conducted with LGBTQ+ people in Brazil, a country where same-sex couples have been recognized by the national legislation since 2011, but is currently facing a conservative wave which threatens much of the victories gained by the LGBTQ+ movement in recent years. That’s why this book aims to provide both updated theoretical and methodological contributions as well as et...

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 ...

Written in three parts, War Trilogy is a dazzling and anarchic exploration of social relations which offers thought-provoking ideas on our perceptions of humanity, history, violence, art and science. The first part follows a writer who travels to the small, uninhabited island of San Simon, where he witnesses events which impel him on a journey across several continents, chasing the phantoms of nameless people devastated by violence. The second book is narrated by Kurt, the fourth astronaut who secretly accompanied Armstrong, Aldrin and Collins on their mythical first voyage to the moon. Now living in Miami, an ageing Kurt revisits the important chapters of his life: from serving in the Vietnam War to his memory of seeing earth from space. In the third part, a woman embarks on a walking tour of the Normandy coast with the goal of re-enacting, step by step, the memory of another trip taken years before. On her journey along the rugged coastline, she comes across a number of locals, but also thousands of refugees newly arrived on Europe's shores, whose stories she follows on the TV in her lodgings.
