Resisting Brazil's Military Regime
Praised by his many admirers as a "courageous and fearless" defender of human rights, Heráclito Fontoura Sobral Pinto (1893-1991) was the most consistently forceful opponent of the regime of Brazilian dictator Getúlio Vargas. John W. F. Dulles chronicled Sobral's battles with the Vargas government in Sobral Pinto, "The Conscience of Brazil": Leading the Attack against Vargas (1930-1945), which History: Reviews of New Books called "a must-read for anyone wanting to understand twentieth-century Brazil." In this second and final volume of his biography of Sobral Pinto, Professor Dulles completes the story of the fiery crusader's fight for democracy, morality, and justice, particularly for the...
Estatuto da Ordem dos Advogados - Anotado e Comentado - 16a Edição
A preocupação em manter a obra actualizada constitui, na verdade, o factor fundamental que justifica a presente edição, já que se reconhece a sua natureza necessariamente transitória em função da anunciada entrada em vigor, mas em data incerta, de uma nova lei das associações públicas profissionais, potenciando a introdução de alguns contornos inovadores na actual legislação com reflexos na Advocacia e, forçosamente, no actual Estatuto da Ordem dos Advogados.

Sobral Pinto, "The Conscience of Brazil"
Praised by his admirers as "one of those rare heroic figures out of Plutarch" and as "an intrepid Don Quixote," Brazilian lawyer Heráclito Fontoura Sobral Pinto (1893-1991) was the most consistently forceful opponent of dictator Getúlio Vargas. Through legal cases, activism in Catholic and lawyers' associations, newspaper polemics, and a voluminous correspondence, Sobral Pinto fought for democracy, morality, and justice, particularly for the downtrodden. This book is the first of a projected two-volume biography of Sobral Pinto. Drawing on Sobral's vast correspondence, which was not previously available to researchers, John W. F. Dulles confirms that Sobral Pinto was a true reformer, who h...

Processo Ético-Disciplinar na OAB
Dando continuidade ao nosso sonho de lançar uma coleção de livros envolvendo todo o procedimento dos processos ético-disciplinares no sistema OAB, esta obra é a concretização deste sonho, que se iniciou com o Livro I – Fase de Conhecimento. Neste volume, abordaremos os recursos possíveis em todas as Seccionais do país, trazendo críticas construtivas e tentando elucidar tão complicada sistemática. A legislação afeta os procedimentos disciplinares no sistema OAB e permite que cada Seccional disponha, através de seus Regimentos Internos, cada um dos recursos e o seu tramitar processual, o que causa profunda incerteza e insegurança ao operador do direito que milita na área ou ...
State and Opposition in Military Brazil
Based on extensive research into opposition and government documents, including the previously unavailable Manual Básico da Escola de Guerra, Maria Helena Moreira Alves provides a rich description of the long and tortuous attempt by the Brazilian military government to create a workable “national security state” in the face of determined and resilient opposition. She interviewed more than one hundred key figures in government, the military, business, professional associations, the Catholic church, grassroots organizations, and trade unions in order to analyze politically and historically the relationship between civil society and government structures in Brazil during the years 1964–1983. Her study charts the rise and subsequent decline of the military government’s power, concluding with a discussion of the abertura policy instituted under General João Batista Figueiredo.
