Os Doze Mandamentos da Auto-Publicação Independente
Caro leitor, este livro é uma continuação de "SIM, EU QUERO. SIM, EU POSSO. Como escrever seu primeiro livro e publicá-lo em linha", mas ele pode ser lido independentemente sem nenhum problema. A idéia deste livro surgiu de minha experiência no Twitter (#12mandamentosdaautopublicaçãoindependente) e no Facebook. Na primeira dessas redes sociais conheci muitos autores que haviam escrito apenas um livro, ou alguns deles, e estavam dedicando todas as suas ilusões e esforços para promovê-los em um lugar totalmente errado: uma rede social de escritores. Ninguém vai comprar ou ler seu livro em uma rede social formada por pessoas cujo objetivo principal é fazer com que outros (você) le...
SERÁ QUE VALE A PENA PUBLICAR UM LIVRO DE FORMA INDEPENDENTE?
Nesse livro vou mostrar os pontos positivos e negativos da publicação independente e sobre o mercado literário nacional e internacional. Minha história na caminhada pelo mundo literário será usada como exemplo e falarei sobre minha carreira de escritor, o começo com publicação por editora e minha decisão de me tornar um autor independente e dono do meu próprio negócio. Mostrarei os erros e acertos desde quando publiquei meu primeiro livro e com isso você, que pretende seguir a mesma carreira ou que já é um autor publicado, terá condições de avaliar o que pode ser aplicado à sua realidade, possibilitando ter resultados mais significativos. Isso se você achar, depois que te...
The Spectre of Defeat in Post-War British and US Literature
It is a commonplace belief that history is written by the victorious. However, less recognised but equally common is the idea that the defeated also write history, even if their particular account is rather different. This collection looks at these matters from a novel and distinct perspective. It essentially presents the idea that victors often perceive themselves as defeated, by examining the ways in which the idea of defeat comes to dominate the victors’ own sense of superiority and achievement, thereby undermining the certainties that victory is conventionally thought to create. The contributions here discuss fiction (mostly UK and US) published since the First World War. Through the frameworks of experience, memory and post-memory, they examine this subliminal defeat, basically as seen in conflict itself, in the societies that it affects, and in the individual lives of those who it destroys. The result is an innovative literary account of the victorious-yet-somehow-defeated.
Media and Politics in Post-Authoritarian Mexico
This volume presents an analytical and empirical overview of the array of issues that the Mexican media faces in the post-authoritarian age, which jointly explains how a partially accomplished democracy, its authoritarian inertias, and its unintended consequences hinder the democratic performance of the media. This is analyzed from three points of view: the stalemate Mexican media system and ineffective regulations, the conditions of risk and insecurity of the journalists on the field, and the limits of freedom of expression, political substance, and inclusiveness of media content. A binational effort, with research from US and Mexican authors, a wide analytic perspective is provided on the macro, meso, and micro levels, allowing for a deep conceptual richness and a comprehensive understanding of the Mexican case. With leading researchers in the field, the volume revolves around the problems of the media in post-authoritarian democracies. By answering the questions of how and why the Mexican media has not fully democratized, the works encompassed here can resonate with and are relevant to other post-authoritarian countries and academic disciplines.
Credit, Money and Crises in Post-Keynesian Economics
In this volume, Louis-Philippe Rochon and Hassan Bougrine bring together key post-Keynesian voices in an effort to push the boundaries of our understanding of banks, central banking, monetary policy and endogenous money. Issues such as interest rates, income distribution, stagnation and crises – both theoretical and empirical – are woven together and analysed by the many contributors to shed new light on them. The result is an alternative analysis of contemporary monetary economies, and the policies that are so needed to address the problems of today.
Digital and Sustainable Transformations in a Post-COVID World
Current social, economic, and environmental challenges presented by the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals may be partially attained by digitalization and sustainable practices diffusion. The antecedents, occurrences, and consequences of this process are currently under investigation, but the big challenge is to get a systemic view. This book attempts to bring such a view into focus. Digital and Sustainable Transformations in a Post-COVID World is dedicated to studying the consequences of the global crisis caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and the new needs and practices inherent in developing and disseminating digital and clean technologies.
Military Ethos and Visual Culture in Post-conquest Mexico
Bringing to bear her extensive knowledge of the cultures of Renaissance Europe and sixteenth-century Mexico, Mónica Domínguez Torres here investigates the significance of military images and symbols in post-Conquest Mexico. She shows how the 'conquest' in fact involved dynamic exchanges between cultures; and that certain interconnections between martial, social and religious elements resonated with similar intensity among Mesoamericans and Europeans, creating indeed cultural bridges between these diverse communities. Multidisciplinary in approach, this study builds on scholarship in the fields of visual, literary and cultural studies to analyse the European and Mesoamerican content of the martial imagery fostered within the indigenous settlements of central Mexico, as well as the ways in which local communities and leaders appropriated, manipulated, modified and reinterpreted foreign visual codes. Military Ethos and Visual Culture in Post-Conquest Mexico draws on post-structuralist and post-colonial approaches to analyse the complex dynamics of identity formation in colonial communities.
Post Treatments of Anaerobically Treated Effluents
The anaerobic process is considered to be a sustainable technology for organic waste treatment mainly due to its lower energy consumption and production of residual solids coupled with the prospect of energy recovery from the biogas generated. However, the anaerobic process cannot be seen as providing the ‘complete’ solution as its treated effluents would typically not meet the desired discharge limits in terms of residual carbon, nutrients and pathogens. This has given impetus to subsequent post treatment in order to meet the environmental legislations and protect the receiving water bodies and environment. This book discusses anaerobic treatment from the perspective of organic wastes a...
Government-Business Relations and Regional Development in Post-Reform Mexico
This book explores the political economy of subnational development in Mexico. Like much of Latin America, Mexico underwent market reforms and democratization in the late 20th century. In addition to transforming national institutions, these changes led to sharp political and economic divergence among Mexican states. The author offers a novel explanation for these uneven results, showing how relations between local governments and organized business gave rise to distinct subnational institutions for managing the economy. The argument is developed through a paired comparison of two states in central Mexico, Puebla and Querétaro. This work will be of interest to students of Latin American and Mexican politics, regional development, and government-business relations.
