This volume provides a series of new perspectives on the political, military, and religious history of the reign of Fernando III, king of Castile-León, from 1217-1252.

Assembling an international group of eleven leading scholars on this period of Iberian history, this volume combines military and religious history with a variety of novel approaches and methodologies to ask new and exciting questions about the reign of Fernando III and his place in medieval European history.

Guardians of the Brazilian Amazon Rainforest: Environmental Organizations and Development

The Amazon region is the focus of intense conflict between conservationists concerned with deforestation and advocates of agro-industrial development. This book focuses on the contributions of environmental organizations to the preservation of Brazilian Amazonia. It reveals how environmental organizations such as Greenpeace, Friends of the Earth, WWF and others have fought fiercely to stop deforestation in the region. It documents how the history of frontier expansion and environmental struggle in the region is linked to Brazil’s position in an evolving capitalist world-economy. It is shown how Brazil’s effort to become a developed country has led successive Brazilian governments to devise development projects for Amazonia. The author analyses how globalization has led to the expansion of international commodity chains in the region, particularly for mineral ores, soybeans and beef. He shows how environmental organizations have politicized these commodity chains as weapons of conservation, through boycotting certain products, while other pro-development groups within Brazil claim that such organizations threaten Brazil's sovereignty over its own resources.

O presente trabalho corresponde à segunda parte expandida da tese de doutorado do autor, defendida em 29/09/2017 no âmbito da Faculdade de Direito da Universidade Federal do Paraná, sob a orientação dos professores Luiz Edson Fachin e Carlos Eduardo Pianovski Ruzyk. Na obra, o autor busca promover uma investigação minuciosa sobre os planos da existência, da validade e da eficácia do pacto antenupcial segundo uma perspectiva dogmática crítica, oferecendo-se, com isso, a base teórica necessária para colocar em debate seus limites e possibilidades, em especial no tocante ao direito sucessório brasileiro e à possibilidade de se dispor a respeito da concorrência sucessória no pacto antenupcial.

Oral History in Latin America

This field guide to oral history in Latin America addresses methodological, ethical, and interpretive issues arising from the region’s unique milieu. With careful consideration of the challenges of working in Latin America – including those of language, culture, performance, translation, and political instability – David Carey Jr. provides guidance for those conducting oral history research in the postcolonial world. In regions such as Latin America, where nations that have been subjected to violent colonial and neocolonial forces continue to strive for just and peaceful societies, decolonizing research and analysis is imperative. Carey deploys case studies and examples in ways that will resonate with anyone who is interested in oral history.

O direito à própria imagem na era digital

  • Categories: Law

A questão central desta obra é a imputação da responsabilidade civil pelos danos causados em face do uso indevido da imagem humana nos meios virtuais digitais.

Contrato de Namoro

  • Categories: Law

Fruto da dissertação com a qual a autora obteve título de Mestre em Direito pela Universidade Estadual de Londrina, esta obra trata de tema atual e muito instigante: o contrato de namoro. Com as mudanças ocasionadas nos relacionamentos interpessoais, o namoro se aproximou do que se entende como união estável, uma vez que os requisitos caracterizadores da união estável se tornaram perceptíveis no namoro. Essa situação ocasiona inquietudes quanto à insegurança jurídica latente de um eventual reconhecimento da união estável em um relacionamento de namoro. É nesse contexto que se insere o objeto da pesquisa, o contrato de namoro, o qual consiste em um negócio jurídico, sendo a exteriorização de um negócio jurídico contemporâneo. O contrato de namoro é um instrumento pelo qual as partes pactuam sobre o relacionamento que mantêm, bem como traçam aspectos patrimoniais e extrapatrimoniais que entendem como relevantes, principalmente exteriorizam que não pretendem e não se consideram uma família. Trata-se de uma alternativa ao reconhecimento de uma união estável.
