O objetivo deste trabalho é a análise das implicações do subdesenvolvimento na precarização do trabalho, por meio de flexibilizações jurídicas segundo a sua estrutura produtiva, visando traçar uma perspectiva de reforma estrutural, especialmente para a criação de empregos, como forma de bem-estar social. Neste período de incertezas e mudanças em que estamos inseridos, devemos pensar sobre a relevância de analisar as particularidades do Brasil, ou seja, sua trajetória econômica e social. O estudo é realizado conforme as barreiras e preocupações relacionadas à Teoria do Subdesenvolvimento no Brasil e seus impactos no mercado de trabalho. A situação de subdesenvolvimento ...
Concorrência e trabalho foram tradicionalmente vistos como mundos à parte, e pouquíssima interdisciplinaridade existia entre essas disciplinas. Contribuía para essa distância a percepção de que representavam valores completamente distintos e a presunção de que mercados de trabalho eram altamente competitivos. Contudo, estudos recentes começaram a colocar em xeque várias premissas tidas até então como verdadeiras: percebeu-se que os mercados de trabalho não são tão competitivos como se imaginava, que os salários não acompanharam o aumento da produtividade nos últimos anos, e que a existência de assimetrias de informação e custos atrelados à busca por um novo emprego tor...
In this rich, eye-opening, and uplifting digital anthology, dozens of esteemed writers, poets, and artists from more than thirty countries send literary dispatches from life during the pandemic. Net proceeds benefit booksellers in need. As our world is transformed by the coronavirus pandemic, writers offer a powerful antidote to the fearful confines of isolation: a window onto lives and corners of the world beyond our own. In Mauritius, a journalist contends with denialism and mourns the last days of summer, lost to the lockdown. In Paris, a writer struggles to protect his young son from fear. In Chile, protesters who prevailed against tear gas and rubber bullets are now halted by a virus. I...
The proportionality test, as proposed in Robert Alexy’s principles theory, is becoming commonplace in comparative constitutional studies. And yet, the question “are courts justified in borrowing proportionality?” has not been expressly put in many countries where judicial borrowings are a reality. This book sheds light on this question and examines the circumstances under which courts are authorized to borrow from alien legal sources to rule on constitutional cases. Taking the Supreme Federal Court of Brazil – and its enthusiastic recourse to proportionality when interpreting the Federal Constitution – as a case study, the book investigates the normative reasons that could justify ...
Scientists have identified southern China as a likely epicenter for viral pandemics, a place where new viruses emerge out of intensively farmed landscapes and human--animal interactions. In Virulent Zones, Lyle Fearnley documents the global plans to stop the next influenza pandemic at its source, accompanying virologists and veterinarians as they track lethal viruses to China's largest freshwater lake, Poyang Lake. Revealing how scientific research and expert agency operate outside the laboratory, he shows that the search for origins is less a linear process of discovery than a constant displacement toward new questions about cause and context. As scientists strive to understand the environm...

Liver Immunology: Principles and Practice, Second Edition begins with important information about the epidemiology and mortality of liver disease worldwide. This information is followed by chapters related to basic immunology, application of liver immunology for diagnosis, and several excellent chapters that provide a solid foundation for understanding immune-mediated liver disease, including those associated with the biliary tree. A chapter on non-hepatic manifestations of immune mediated liver disease helps provide context for how these diseases affect the patient overall. In addition, chapters discuss various discrete immunologically-mediated infectious liver disorders including those rel...
Today's moviegoers and critics generally consider some Hollywood products--even some blockbusters--to be legitimate works of art. But during the first half century of motion pictures very few Americans would have thought to call an American movie "art." Up through the 1950s, American movies were regarded as a form of popular, even lower-class, entertainment. By the 1960s and 1970s, however, viewers were regularly judging Hollywood films by artistic criteria previously applied only to high art forms. In Hollywood Highbrow, Shyon Baumann for the first time tells how social and cultural forces radically changed the public's perceptions of American movies just as those forces were radically chan...
