Educação e tecnologias: práticas em cenários disruptivos

Muito além de aspectos teórico-metodológicos, o tempo de pandemia tem desvelado a importância de artefatos tecnológicos, na maioria das vezes, concebidos apenas como ferramentas destinadas à comunicação instantânea ou simples entretenimento. Assistindo aos baixos resultados das avaliações externas e, principalmente, à desvalorização de nosso lugar de fala como educadores, ainda, buscamos, com afinco, a condução de práticas pedagógicas que envolvam, docentes e discentes, em um processo significativo. Assim, reunir esses textos, frutos de pesquisa, experiências e estudos intensos de alguns educadores, alunos do Programa de Pós-Graduação em Educação da UNESP, Campus de Marília, é sinônimo de reconhecimento e concretude de que a educação, como instrumento social, reflete as necessidades, bem como as demandas de uma época sem precedentes.

Arquetípica v.1

Não dar a voz, porque “voz já temos”, mas lutar pelo lugar de fala. Nossa apresentação será bem sucinta, e de relevância sentimental, ao falar do primeiro volume da Arquetípica Revista. Nesse projeto emaranhado por sonhos literários e concretizações de outros projetos, a conversa junto à entrevistada, Júlia de Carvalho Hansen; a publicação do livro de antologias “Mulheres”, em abril de 2018; fatores que nos fizeram nadar por esse tema, que nos sufocaram, pouco a pouco, pois as dores não paravam de serem sentidas. A conversa e convite feito a psicóloga Natália Rodrigues trouxe um resgate, analítico, sobre o quanto todos os nossos arquétipos não se encaixam nem mesm...

Brazil after Bolsonaro

Brazil after Bolsonaro captures and presents the voices of a wide range of stakeholders including academics and journalists in Brazil and abroad to produce the first systematic engagement with Lula’s latest presidency. Providing fair and balanced perspectives on Lula, the authors examine the legacy of Lula’s previous presidency; what happened in the interim in the eras of Rousseff, Temer, and Bolsonaro; and what are the challenges facing a new Lula administration. This book is divided into three main sections (Background to change, Context and issues, and Foreign policy) and chapters detail the political, social, and economic dimensions of change in Brazil and its wider repercussions. A fourth section sees Luís Guillermo Solís Rivera, President of Costa Rica from 2014 to 2018, offer reflections on Lula from the perspective of a fellow president. Assuming no prior knowledge and written in an accessible style, this book is ideal for those seeking to further their understanding of contemporary politics in Brazil and to learn the context and consequences of the transfer of power from Jair Bolsonaro to Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva.

Wildlife Conservation Society Birds of Brazil

Brazil is the fifth largest country in the world and is one of the planet's richest places for bird diversity, especially when it comes to the number of endemic species. Brazil's Atlantic Forest region is one of the most dazzling of all. Immediately surrounding São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro, this area of Brazil is also a relatively accessible area to birders from around the world. In the Birds of Brazil Field Guides, the Wildlife Conservation Society brings together a top international team to do justice to the incredible diversity of Brazilian birds. This second guide presents 927 bird species, 863 illustrated, that occur in just the southeastern Atlantic Forest biome (Mata Atlântica in Portuguese). Of these species, 140 are endemic and 105 near endemic to just this region; 83 of these are threatened. Modern and compact, this field guide provides illustrations of unparalleled quality, key field marks, and regional range maps to facilitate easy recognition of all species normally occurring in this vibrant and critically important area of Brazil.

Directory of World Cinema: Brazil

Best known to international audiences for its carnivalesque irreverence and recent gangster blockbusters, Brazilian cinema is gaining prominence with critics, at global film festivals and on DVD shelves. This volume seeks to introduce newcomers to Brazilian cinema and to offer valuable insights to those already well versed in the topic. It brings into sharp focus some of the most important movements, genres and themes from across the eras of Brazilian cinema, from cinema novo to musical chanchada, the road movie to cinema de bordas, avant-garde to pornochanchada. Delving deep beyond the surface of cinema, the volume also addresses key themes such as gender, indigenous and diasporic communities and Afro-Brazilian identity. Situating Brazilian cinema within the country's changing position in the global capitalist system, the essays consider uneven modernization, class division, dictatorship, liberation struggles and globalization alongside questions of entertainment and artistic innovation.

Economic Sociology

The sociological study of economic activity has witnessed a significant resurgence. Recent texts have chronicled economic sociology's nineteenth-century origins while pointing to the importance of context and power in economic life, yet the field lacks a clear understanding of the role that concepts at different levels of abstraction play in its organization. Economic Sociology fills this critical gap by surveying the current state of the field while advancing a framework for further theoretical development. Alejandro Portes examines economic sociology's principal assumptions, key explanatory concepts, and selected research sites. He argues that economic activity is embedded in social and cu...

Science Since Babylon

Professor Price has enlarged his widely known and influential study of science and the humanities to include much new material, extraordinarily broad in its range: from ancient automata, talismans and symbols, to the differences of modern science and technology. Science since Babylon is now more fascinating and useful than ever to anyone concerned with the humanistic understanding of science. Originating in a series of five public lectures delivered under the auspices of the history department at Yale University in 1959, this book is an investigation of the circumstances and consequences of certain vital decisions relating to scientific crises which have the world to its present state of sci...
