The trend of measuring performances is global and pervasive. We all live in quantified societies, in which performances in an ever-growing array of fields–from education to health, work to credit, justice to consumption–are assessed and governed through quantitative techniques. While the disruption brought by the quantitative turn has been widely studied by social scientists, legal research on the issue is minimal. This book aims to fill the gap. The essays herein collected explore how performance measurements interact with the law in different regions and sectors, which legal effects they produce, and for whose benefit.
The debate on “sustainable development”, ecosocialism, agroecology and the production of healthy food is increasing in Europe and in the world. This book depicts peasants' struggles for the resistance to the advance of destructive production. It also socializes the results of research, which shows us the pressage of alternative forms of labour, which are based upon agroecology, in cooperation and corporativism besides the emergence of agroecology schools of one of the main social movements of the present time: the Landless Movement.
Sobre a obra Dano Moral Coletivo - 1a Ed - 2018 "Não há dúvidas de que a responsabilidade civil, no quadro geral da civilística clássica, está dentre as disciplinas do direito privado que, nas últimas décadas, sofreu as mais profundas revisões estruturais. Tal bem se percebe quando se atenta para o fato de que, partindo do binômio dano patrimonial-culpa, ao qual se reduzia o instituto, em termos gerais, a partir da sua conformação moderna codificada, foi necessário um repensamento não apenas do seu funcionamento, mas da própria concepção desenvolvida para cada um dos seus elementos nucleares.Nessa linha é que a revolução já apregoada por Josserand, ainda na primeira metade do século passado, atingiu todos os seus pressupostos, de maneira a não permitir que até mesmo a própria noção de dano, que se encontra no seu cerne, demandasse intentos de profunda revisão.
Despite often taken as a simple procedure, techniques on tracheostomy have evolved considerably on the last few years. Consequently, new technical variations and indications for different purposes are being developed and proposed. The current book is proposed to serve as a comprehensive guide exclusively devoted to tracheostomy, discussing its most important details, variations and indications. Here the reader will find a broad discussion ranging from the most basic pre-clinical aspects to post-surgical procedures and complications. Great emphasis is placed on key topics such as the oncologic patient, variations of the technique, and tracheostomy in the intensive care unit, among others. Additionally, some issues that are not commonly discussed in regular textbooks, like tracheostomy in child and in great obese, are also included. With a wealth of photos, illustrations and tables, Tracheostomy – A Surgical Guide provides the material necessary to support a safe and effective surgical intervention in different populations and surgical contexts, with the hope that it will result in improved care for patients who underwent tracheostomy.

A obra destaca a eleição do enriquecimento sem causa ao nível de instituto jurídico, com a sua previsão legal expressa como fonte autônoma de vínculo jurídico obrigacional, ao lado da responsabilidade civil e dos contratos. Faz referência à função primária do instituto: a tutela restitutória. Ocupa-se de uma preocupação central, a saber, a aptidão dessa nova "fonte" do direito obrigacional para promover a restituição do chamado lucro da intervenção, uma das manifestações do ilícito lucrativo. Para tanto, analisa o enquadramento jurídico do lucro da intervenção, sua quantificação, bem assim aspectos como a subsidiariedade do enriquecimento sem causa e a cumulação com a responsabilidade civil.
