Infâncias, adolescências e juventudes na perspectiva dos direitos humanos: onde estamos? Para onde vamos?
A perspectiva dos Direitos Humanos não oferece só uma chave de leitura dos conflitos existentes no país como também descortina uma estratégia – discursiva e prática – para traduzir tais conflitos em demandas que podem ser legitimadas e levadas ao espaço público. No Brasil de hoje, uma perversa conjugação de interesses econômicos e políticos resultou em retrocessos em termos de reconhecimento e efetivação de direitos historicamente consagrados, causando, inclusive, descontinuidade de polí¬ticas sociais voltadas para crianças, adolescentes e jovens. A contribuição desta obra reside na sua diversidade de finalidades e de olhares, ampliando circuitos de interlocutores e qualificando o necessário e urgente debate. Os textos aqui publicados serão úteis para diferentes públicos interessa¬dos em reconstituição histórica, em reflexões teóricas, em fontes de pesquisa, no balanço de iniciativas em curso e em metodologias voltadas para a ação social. Os aportes disciplinares também são diversificados, pois vêm da área da Educação, do Direito e do Serviço Social. Regina Novaes
Climate Change Adaptation in Latin America
This book showcases experiences from research, field projects and best practice in climate change adaptation in countries in the Latin American region, focusing on managing vulnerability and fostering resilience. It includes a selection of papers presented at a specialist symposium on climate change adaptation held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil in November 2016.Consistent with the need for more cross-sectoral interaction among the various stakeholders working in the field of climate change adaptation in Latin America, the book documents and disseminates the wealth of experiences in the region.

Integrating Social Responsibility and Sustainable Development

ESG nas relações de consumo
"(...) Cada vez mais os consumidores se preocupam em adquirir produtos e serviços éticos, ou seja, que foram produzidos, anunciados e comercializados a partir dos princípios expostos no Pacto Global. Os produtos e serviços, na nova percepção dos consumidores, levam junto o contexto da sua linha de produção e comercialização. O livro, agora apresentado, enfrenta estes diversos problemas complexos, com análises fundamentadas e, muitas vezes, com sugestões para aprimoramento do próprio sistema. É a ciência cumprindo seu papel de trazer reflexões no intuito de melhorar as relações humanas. São 17 artigos que dão um destaque ao ESG no contexto do Direito das Relações de Consumo. Por óbvio, pela própria formação dos diversos autores – componentes do Comitê de Relações de Consumo do IBRAC (Instituto Brasileiro de Estudos de Concorrência, Consumo e Comércio Internacional) – os artigos enfrentam o universo das responsabilidades empresariais no contexto de uma sociedade de consumo.

Souto de Moura
"I look beyond solution; I look for an expression."--Eduardo Souto de Moura The architect Eduardo Souto de Moura (b. 1952) has won many accolades, including the 2011 Pritzker Architecture Prize. Based in Porto, Souto de Moura studied under Fernando Távora and worked under fellow Portuguese architect Álvaro Siza, with whom he continues to collaborate. Souto de Moura established his own practice in 1980, and his wide-ranging influences, including Mies van der Rohe and Donald Judd, can be seen in the stunning variety of his work, from his acclaimed private houses, to the striking Paula Rego Museum in Cascais and the Braga Municipal Stadium, to his work in historical contexts such as the Convento das Bernardas in Tavira. This beautifully illustrated retrospective provides the most comprehensive account of Souto de Moura's career to date. Drawings, notes and sketches from his archive, and newly commissioned photographs complement essays by scholars and prominent architects that trace Souto de Moura's career, contextualize his work within the larger trends of contemporary international architectural culture, and highlight the originality of his design strategy.
