Controversies about History, Development and Revolution in Brazil
Controversies about History, Development and Revolution in Brazil is a critical exploration of the history of Brazilian economic thought in the light of the country’s own historical and political development. Editors Maria Malta, Jaime León, Carla Curty and Bruno Borja present an analytical interpretation of the facts, which reveals the power of debates constructing a genuinely Brazilian contribution to world economic thought on development, democracy, history, dependency, and revolution. Resulting from 10 years of collective research, this book incorporates a new methodological proposal stemming from the strength and resilience of public research financed by the Brazilian people in quest of their own formative interpretation. Contributors are: Bruno Borja, Carla Curty, Filipe Leite, Jaime León, Maria Malta, Larissa Mazolli, Alfredo Saad-Filho, and Wilson Vieira.

Seed Was Planted
"Argues that rural land and labor activism extend back to 1920s, at least in Säao Paulo state. Details interaction of rural workers with Vargas state, the Partido Comunista Brasileiro, Catholic Church, and other actors, and workers' responses to repression after 1964.

The Red International of Labour Unions (RILU) 1920 - 1937
The 'Red International of Labour Unions' (RILU, Russian abbreviation Profintern) was a central instrument for the spreading of international communism during the inter-war period. This comprehensive and scholarly history of the organisation, based on extensive research in the former communist archives in Moscow and East Berlin, sheds significant light on the international trade union movement of the period. Tosstorff shows how the RILU began as a revolutionary alliance of syndicalists and communists in defiance of the social democratic International Federation of Trade Unions. His text presents a full account of the organisation’s main stages: the decline of the revolutionary wave after World War One, after which many syndicalists left, and others were integrated into the communist parties; the continuation of the RILU as an international communist apparatus; and its dissolution in 1936–7 as part of communism's popular front policy. First published in German as Profintern: Die Rote Gewerkschaftsinternationale 1920-1937 by Ferdinand Schöningh, Paderborn, in 2004.
Brazil and the Soviet Challenge, 1917–1947
This study sheds new light on the Brazilian communist movement and how the specter of the USSR influenced mid-twentieth century Brazilian foreign policy. Between 1918 and 1961, Brazil and the USSR maintained formal diplomatic ties for only thirty-one months, at the end of World War II. Yet, despite the official distance, the USSR is the only external actor whose behavior, real or imagined, influenced the structure of the Brazilian state in the twentieth century. In Brazil and the Soviet Challenge, 1917–1947, Stanley Hilton examines Brazilian policy toward the Soviet Union during this period. Drawing on American, British, and German diplomatic archives and unprecedented access to official a...

Um Pé de História: estudos sobre aprendizagem histórica
É com grande alegria e satisfação que apresentamos este nosso novo livro, Um Pé de Histórias. Ele é resultado da terceira edição do Simpósio Eletrônico Internacional de Ensino de História [www.simpohis2017.blogspot.com.br], e traz as comunicações apresentadas nas mesas de Ensino de História e História do Ensino. No momento crucial que o campo da História vem passando em nosso país, as investigações sobre a arte de ensinar história, bem como seu desenvolvimento ao longo dos anos, nos trazem subsídios fundamentais para pensarmos o que erramos, o que acertamos, o que podemos e precisamos melhorar. Tanto a escola quanto a academia estão imersos em um profundo momento de reflexão, buscando resignificar a dimensão de seu trabalho histórico. Nesse sentido, o que pode ser feito? Junto com Canteiro de Histórias e Jardim de Histórias [outros dois livros dessa série] esse nosso volume visa dar uma pequena contribuição a essas questões. Seja bem vindo!
