This fascinating history reassesses the consequences of Portugal's flourishing private trade with Asia, including increased tensions between the growing urban merchant class and the still-dominant landed aristocracy. James C. Boyajian shows how Portuguese-Asian commerce formed part of a global trading network that linked not only Europe and Asia but also—for the first time—Asia, West Africa, Brazil, and Spanish America. He also argues that, contrary to previous scholarly opinion, nearly half of the Portuguese-Asian trade was controlled by New Christians—descendants of Iberian Jews forcibly converted to Christianity in the 1490s.
Coastal communities depend on the marine environment for their livelihoods, but the common property nature of marine resources poses major challenges for the governance of such resources. Through detailed cases and consideration of broader global trends, this volume examines how coastal communities are adapting to environmental change, and the attributes of governance that foster deliberate transformations and help to build resilience of social and ecological systems. Governance here reflects how communities, societies and organisations (e.g. fisher cooperatives, government agencies) choose to organise themselves to make decisions about important issues, such as the use and protection of coa...

Como faz bem recordar a primavera vivida naquele tão longínquo ORGANIZADORES 2012, ocasião em que, ladeado pelo imortal Ricardo Aronne, pelo inquieto Pablo Malheiros, pelo incansável Marcos Ehrhardt Júnior e pelo destemido Lucas Abreu Barroso conseguimos arar o campo e nele lançar as sementes que viriam, frutificar sob a forma de interação, diálogo e muita solidariedade. Desde então crescemos e vimos florescer algumas conquistas que nos são muito caras, marcas que nos distanciam de muito daquilo que tem sido naturalizado entremeio aos movimentos que impulsionam o Direito, dentro e fora das salas de aula. Crescemos imersos em um tempo neguentrópico no desvelar do qual foi possíve...
A presente obra se propõe a servir de ferramenta prática aos atores do sistema de justiça que buscam aplicar a abordagem da Justiça Restaurativa na esfera criminal federal. Apesar de o Conselho Nacional de Justiça ter, por meio da Resolução nº 225/2016, estimulado a implantação pelos tribunais brasileiros de programas de Justiça Restaurativa orientados a aprimorar as formas de resposta às demandas sociais relacionadas às questões de conflitos e violências, as especificidades da maioria dos crimes federais, cujas vítimas são indeterminadas e os danos difusos, geram resistência a esse movimento no âmbito federal, visto que o modelo restaurativo de fazer justiça possui enfoq...
