Dom Hélder Câmara
Ao lembrar de Dom Hélder Câmara, é impossível não pensar na figura carismática, bondosa, miúda e sólida desse homem que de um jeito substantivamente manso, foi adjetivamente irado. Irado de uma ira santa, pois fincou suas orações e práticas pacíficas no território comum aos bons profetas, que se limitam à denúncia e são capazes de exercer o anúncio. Esse livro caminha pelas razões históricas, políticas e teológicas que colaboraram para que Dom Hélder se fizesse com se fez. O autor destaca o homem, o religioso, suas circunstâncias, sua trajetória, os dramas e os enredos que conduziram esse ícone na direção de uma atividade pastoral progressista, revolucionária, humanista e, por isso mesmo, profundamente cristã. Temos, assim, a possibilidade de conhecer um pouco mais o caminho de esperança percorrido por Dom Hélder ao longo de sua vida. A sua lembrança nos ajudará a manter acesa a chama da esperança para lutarmos constantemente na construção de um mundo mais justo e fraterno para toda a humanidade.
Brazilian Authoritarianism
"This book, written in the aftermath of the 2018 election of the right-wing populist politician Jair Bolsonaro, is a historically-grounded analysis of authoritarianism in Brazil. In the tradition of Zola's J'accuse, Lilia Schwarcz takes up and debunks the popular and cherished national myth of Brazil as a tolerant, open, peaceful, and racially-harmonious society. In that country's history textbooks even Brazil's centuries of slavery have been described as an ultimately benign, paternalistic order in which the races freely mixed and the cruelty of the U.S. slave experience was absent. This, Schwarcz argues, papers over centuries of racially-motivated violence, cruelty, and exploitation. These...
The Human Tradition in Modern Brazil
The Human Tradition in Modern Brazil makes the last two centuries of Brazilian history come alive through the stories of mostly non-elite individuals. The pieces in this lively collection address how people experienced historical continuities and changes by exploring how they related to the rise of Brazilian national identity and the emergence of a national state. By including a broad array of historical actors from different regions, ethnicities, occupations, races, genders, and eras, The Human Tradition in Modern Brazil brings a human dimension to major economic, political, cultural, and social transitions. Because these perspectives do not always fit with the generalizations made about the predominant attitudes, values, and beliefs of different groups, they bring a welcome complexity to the understanding of Brazilian society and history.

Brazilian Science Fiction
Science fiction, because of its links to science and technology, is the consummate literary vehicle for examining the perception and cultural impact of the modernization process in Brazil. Because of the centrality of the role played by the military dictatorship (1964-85) in imposing industrialization and economic development policies on Brazil, this book examines the genre in the periods before, during, and after the dictatorship, encompassing the years 1960-2000. The analysis shows that a reading of Brazilian science fiction based on its use of paradigms of Anglo-American science fiction and myths of Brazilian nationhood provides a unique look into Brazil's modern metamorphosis as it finds itself on the periphery of the globalized world.

Why are They Poor?
"When I feed the poor, they call me a saint; when I ask why they are poor, they call me a communist." ** This quotation given by the protagonist Dom Helder Camara is also the motto of this book. The book shows Camara's life from his childhood over the first pastoral steps up to him as the educationalist, bureaucrat and politician. As an archbishop for twenty years in Olinda and Recife Helder Camara is therefore referred to as "Man of the people in Recife". The "brother of the poor" criticised the political system in his motherland Brasil openly and by this risked his life more than once. His international reputation is still actual: moving theology of liberation, Camara provoces effects in Church and society life all over the world.

Superendividamento dos Consumidores de Boa-Fé
O severo desequilíbrio econômico de aproximadamente 30 milhões de brasileiros ensejou a edição da Lei Federal n.o 14.181/2021, pois o nosso País não mais poderia continuar ignorando a necessidade de disciplinar a prevenção e o tratamento de tão sério e lastimável problema. Torna-se importante compreender, de modo crítico, o superendividamento e, neste livro, constam observações sobre o seu conceito, as suas características, espécies e causas. Os novos princípios, direitos básicos, práticas e cláusulas abusivas, inseridos no microssistema consumerista pela novel legislação, também são objeto de análise. O diferencial desta obra pode ser constatado sob quatro fundamen...
