"O fator ESG – Environmental/ Social/ Governance – ocupa a ordem do dia e cresce em importância nas discussões acerca das políticas ambientais que visam a sustentabilidade das atividades empresariais do homo economicus. Essa realidade metodológica trabalha com ferramentas exequíveis, perfeitamente objetivas e que produzem resultados efetivos. Não há outro meio, na medida em que a terra não voltará ao seu estado natural. O desenvolvimento é contínuo e, por isso mesmo, deve ser pautado por mecanismos sustentáveis. Não há paliativos. Além da prevenção há que ser consideradas, inquestionavelmente, também as ferramentas de remediação do meio ambiente que é agredido em ra...
Estudar o direito constitucional é aprofundar-se em algumas das questões mais fundamentais sobre a natureza humana, as relações governamentais e sociais. Além de lidar com a organização do Estado e de governo, o Direito Constitucional se preocupa com a relação entre o governo e os cidadãos, mais especificamente com os direitos e privilégios do indivíduo diante do Estado Democrático. A presente obra tem o objetivo de discutir temas mais aprofundados de Direito Constitucional, no Estado Democrático de Direito, além de ser um convite à reflexão sobre a defesa de direitos fundamentais de grupos ainda não protegidos de forma integral pelo Estado. A obra foi escrita por diferentes trabalhos de professores do Centro Universitário Estácio de Sá de Belo Horizonte e juristas convidados.

This book contains the first described species of Centris, even before the description of the genus. Considering this fact, the entire layout and color palette draw inspiration from the books of naturalists of the XVIII and XIX centuries. For the creation of the cover, I used one of the beautiful designs made by the German naturalist and scientific illustrator Maria Sibylla Merian (1647–1717), one of the first women in history who dedicated herself to in situ observation of insects. The drawing corresponds to flowers of Iris latifolia (Mill.) Voss (Iridaceae), Delphinium sp. (Ranunculaceae), and Narcissus sp. (Amaryllidaceae) appearing in the third chapter of her work “Neues Blumenbuch: ...
This book presents a set of recent advances that involve the areas of multimedia, IoT, and web technologies. These advances incorporate aspects of clouds, artificial intelligence, data analysis, user experience, and games. In this context, the work will bring the reader the opportunity to understand new possibilities of use and research in these areas. We think that this book is suitable for students (postgraduates and undergraduates) and lecturers on these specific topics. Professionals can also benefit from the book since some chapters work with practical aspects relevant to the industry.
An exploration of the innovative, quintessentially Brazilian painter who merged modernism with the brilliant energy and culture of her homeland Tarsila do Amaral (1886-1973) was a central figure at the genesis of modern art in her native Brazil, and her influence reverberates throughout 20th- and 21st-century art. Although relatively little-known outside Latin America, her work deserves to be understood and admired by a wide contemporary audience. This publication establishes her rich background in European modernism, which included associations in Paris with artists Fernand Léger and Constantin Brancusi, dealer Ambroise Vollard, and poet Blaise Cendrars. Tarsila (as she is known affectiona...
This book presents the outcomes of recent endeavors that will contribute to significant advances in the areas of communication design, fashion design, interior design and product design, music and musicology, as well as overlapping areas. Gathering the proceedings of the 7th EIMAD conference, held on May 14–15, 2020, and organized by the School of Applied Arts, Campus da Talagueira, in Castelo Branco, Portugal, it proposes new theoretical perspectives and practical research directions in design and music, while also discussing teaching practices and some areas of intersection. It addresses strategies for communication and culture in a global, digital world, that take into account key individual and societal needs.
