"Por meio da identificação dos sujeitos vulneráveis e dos mecanismos de tutela, por força do comando da isonomia substancial acalentado no desenho solidarista constitucional que marca o atual estágio democrático do Estado brasileiro, vivencia-se um período sem precedentes de humanização do Direito e da concreta percepção de suas novas funções. Um ordenamento jurídico que não tem por fim o reforço e manutenção do sistema de dominação social, racial e de gênero e preservação do status quo do poder estabelecido, mas atento à realidade de desigualdades e voltado ao efetivo enfrentamento das relações assimétricas que permitem a subordinação e a subjugação dos grupos...

The commercialisation of science and technology enabled innovation is a serious topic of interest for a wide range of global audiences who share one common objective: to understand how science and technology based ideas can be turned into commercial value more effectively. Despite the vast number of publications addressing entrepreneurship, innovation and strategy there is relatively little in the literature which systematically addresses the structures, processes and mechanisms involved in turning ideas into commercially valuable propositions: this book is intended to directly address this gap. The approach in Camels, Tigers & Unicorns consists of three fundamental strands: Research insight...
In recent years, there has been a rise in the demand of alternative agricultural commodities, specifically camel milk-based products.

The Handbook of Research on Health and Environmental Benefits of Camel Products is an essential reference source that discusses the nutritional, physical, and chemical factors of camel milk in comp...
In March 2006, the residents of 911 Prestes Maia, a ramshackle tower block in the centre of Sao Paulo, were surprised to learn that they were to be evicted within 28 days. The building, neglected by its landlord and thought to be empty, was actually home to 468 families with 315 children. These residents had driven out the vermin and the drug dealers and cleaned the place up - creating possibly the largest squat in the world. Bittencourt's photos are a powerful record of this diverse community.
