Sociology in Brazil
This book provides an overview of the institutional and intellectual development of sociology in Brazil from the early 1900s to the present day; through military coups, dictatorships and democracies. It charts the profound impact of sociology on Brazilian public life and how, in turn, upheavals in the history of the country and its universities affected its scientific agenda. This engaging account highlights the extent of the discipline’s colonial inheritance, its early institutionalization in São Paulo, and its congruent rise and fall during repeated regime changes. The authors’ analysis draws on original research that maps the concentration of research interests, new developments, publications and centers of production in Brazilian sociology, using qualitative and quantitative data. It concludes with a reflection on the potential impact of the recent far-right turn in Brazilian politics on the future of the discipline. This book contributes a valuable country study to the history of sociology and will appeal to a range of social scientists in addition to scholars of disciplinary historiography, intellectual and Brazilian history.
Brazil
Brazil is at crossroads, emerging slowly from a historic recession that was preceded by a huge economic boom. Reasons for the historic bust following a boom are manifold. Policy mistakes were an important contributory factor, and included the pursuit of countercyclical policies, introduced to deal with the effects of the global financial crisis, beyond the point where they were helpful. More fundamentally, it reflects longstanding structural weaknesses plaguing the economy, that also help explain Brazil’s uninspiring growth performance over the past four decades.
Deuslibido
Neri sempre teve uma sensibilidade incrível para a escrita. Tem uma forma peculiar de entender as coisas e é dessa mesma forma que as transforma em arte, em poesias. E eu adoro lê-las e muito mais quando ele recita para mim ou ainda quando ele faz vídeos com imagens e ao fundo podemos ouvir a sua voz macia e objetiva. Com um vocabulário simples, podemos às vezes vê-lo respeitar a fundo, a forma, a métrica e as rimas. Noutras, cria as suas próprias formas e métricas dando corpo e vida aos seus delírios e devaneios. A maioria dos seus poemas fala de desilusões amorosas, de um amor almejado, platônico ou por sorte, correspondido a altura. Sempre solícito, faz poemas a pedidos de a...
Consumer Law and Socioeconomic Development
This book reflects the research output of the Committee on the International Protection of Consumers of the International Law Association (ILA). The Committee was created in 2008, with a mandate to study the role of public and private law to protect consumers, review UN Guidelines, and to model laws, international treaties and national legislations concerning protection and consumer redress. It has been accepted to act as an observer not only when the UNCTAD was updating its guidelines, but also at the Hague Conference on Private International Law. The book includes the contributions of various Committee members in the past few years and is a result of the cooperation between the Committee members and experts from Australia, Brazil, Canada and China. It is divided into three parts: the first part addresses trends and challenges in international protection of consumers, while the second part focuses on financial crises and consumer protection and the third part examines national and regional consumer law issues.

Euro Area Policies
This Selected Issues paper discusses the impact of workforce aging on productivity in the euro area. The euro area population has aged considerably over the past few decades, and the process is expected to accelerate in the years ahead. At the same time, labor productivity growth in the euro area has been sluggish, posing risks to long-term growth prospects. It is estimated that workforce aging could significantly retard total factor productivity (TFP) growth over the medium to long term. Given current demographic projections from the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development, the aging of the workforce in the euro area could lower TFP growth by about 0.2 percentage points each year between 2014 and 2035. Appropriate policies can, however, mitigate the adverse effects of aging.

Celeste Bispo
Celeste, uma remanescente quilombola da comunidade do Garcia, na cidade do Salvador, é também uma convencida espiritualista. Recebe frequentemente a visita da sua desencarnada mãe, que ouve as suas lamurias, as suas queixas e, como sempre fizera em vida, dá-lhe conselhos, muitas vezes através de metáforas, para que ela descubra por si só a melhor saída para solucionar os seus problemas que, na realidade, nem de fato são seus. Cecéu vive preocupando-se em resolver problemas da sua comunidade e dos seus alunos e, sem perceber, esquece dos seus próprios.
