Este livro é resultado do I Fórum de Estudos Leituras de Paulo Freire: Educação Popular em Debate, realizado em Manaus no mês de abril de 2016. Com financiamento da CAPES e UEA, o fórum deu continuidade ao trabalho de várias instituições de ensino superior no Brasil, tendo a obra de Paulo Freire como fonte inspiradora. Desde a sua criação em 1999, os fóruns buscam articular os saberes acadêmicos com os saberes oriundos de diferentes práticas sociais. Para além das instituições universitárias, o fórum se articula com escolas, movimentos sociais, ONGs, associações populares e entidades que, de alguma forma, comungam com a utopia de uma sociedade mais justa para todas as pessoas.
A vida tem ‘por objetivo principal, salientando que a verdade jurídica não poderá salientar-se à ética e ao direito, assim como o progresso científico não poderá acobertar crimes contra a dignidade humana, nem traçar sem limites jurídicos, os destinos da humanidade’. 1 Nas palavras de Diogo Garcia, 2 ‘biodireito é a regulamentação jurídica da problemática da bioética, no sentido em que formula as relações peculiares entre ética e direito que se inter-relacionam reciprocamente: ética como instância prática do direito e direito como expressão positiva da ética’. O art. 5°, IX, da Constituição Federal estabelece que ‘é livre a expressão da atividade intele...
Tecemos o livro Colonialidade e resistências no contexto do tenso processo de mudanças políticas, econômicas, sociais, culturais e étnico-raciais que vivemos no Brasil em 2013-2018, pressionados por setores políticos aderentes a interesses antipopulares do capital multinacional. Como pós-graduandos em Educação da Unirio, entrelaçamos nossas pesquisas para entender as respostas e as propostas urdidas pelas múltiplas lutas que nos atravessam. Como um "tear", tramamos teias de resistência, pela união, por respeito, partilha e construção coletiva. Deparamo-nos com as nossas experiências e nos demos as mãos. Por meio de re-des-encontros, de entrecruzamento de ideias, criamos tess...
DIVAnalyzes Latin American and Caribbean folk art from a feminist perspective, considering the issue of gender in the production and circulation of popular art produced by women./div
The aim of this book is to engender Mexican folk art and locate women at its centre by studying the processes of creation, distribution, and consumption, as well as examining iconographic aspects, and elements of class and ethnicity, from the perspective of gender. The author will demonstrate that the topic provides unique insights into Mexican culture, and has enormous relevance within and without the country, given the fact that much folk art is made for the United States and Europe, either in terms of the tourists who buy it on coming to Mexico, or that which is exported.
Joy Manne brings her experience as a psychotherapist, her years of Vipassanna meditation, and her knowledge of Buddhism to a blend of East and West called "Soul Therapy". Her book is based on the premise that true and lasting healing comes from the Soul Quest, or spiritual development.
This book is a mosaic or quilt of folk art around the world, from polychrome clay figures made in Izúcar de Matamoros, Puebla (Mexico) to the baskets Maori women create in New Zealand, from Japanese lacquer work and decorated paddles to black dolls in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The creative impulse found in three continents, four countries, and four geographical regions are juxtaposed to make up a harmonious whole. The book carries out a detailed dissection of a variety of ethnic, racialized, and gender representations in their contemporary forms.

Agroforestry systems have been touted as sustainable production systems that alleviate many of the environmental problems associated with modern production systems. Are they indeed ecologically and economically sustainable? Using case studies from around the globe, this book highlights the potential of agroforestry systems to produce a broad range of commodities. In addition to addressing the biophysical and socioeconomic dimensions of producing traditional food, fodder and fiber crops, this volume examines the potential to integrate biomass crops, botanicals and ornamental plants into agroforestry practices. The book should be particularly useful to students, professionals, researchers and policy makers involved in natural resource management, agroforestry, and environmental management.
