Os artigos reunidos, produzidos pelos discentes que cursaram a referida disciplina e convidados, analisam a aplicação e reconhecimento da complexidade ambiental nas relações jurídicas que tenham por cerne o meio ambiente, desde o fato propriamente dito até seus reflexos e impactos planetários, sociais e judiciários. Importa destacar que durante a disciplina, as análises à complexidade e ao direito ambiental foram recorrentes e debatidos, especificamente, em atenção as decisões da lavra do Ministro Herman Benjamin, proferidas no Superior Tribunal de Justiça, motivo pelo qual a presente obra homenageia-o. Isto decorre de sua escolha e suas ideias enquanto doutrinador, por mais de três décadas, estando presente as referidas temáticas em seus julgados.
O presente livro tem por objetivo analisar o instituto da antecipação de tutela em desfavor do Poder Público. Iniciamos estudando a gênese e os requisitos da técnica antecipatória, bem com o seu fundamento constitucional. Superada essa noção introdutória, passamos a analisar as leis que estipulam hipóteses de vedação à antecipação da tutela, bem como a constitucionalidade de tais normas, levando-se em consideração o direito fundamental à tutela adequada. Por fim, passamos a analisar como o STF tem se manifestado e dado alcance às restrições legais a antecipação de tutela em face do Poder Público. Boa leitura!

Iris Marion Young is known for her ability to connect theory to public policy and practical politics in ways easily understood by a wide range of readers. This collection of essays, which extends her work on feminist theory, explores questions such as the meaning of moral respect and the ways individuals relate to social collectives, together with timely issues like welfare reform, same-sex marriage, and drug treatment for pregnant women.

Kingdon's landmark work on agenda setting and policy formation is drawn from interview conducted with people in and around the U.S. federal government, and from case studies, government documents, party platforms, press coverage, and public opinion surveys. While other works examine how policy issues are decided, Kingdon's book was the first to consider how issues got to be issues. This enduring work attempts to answer the questions: How do subjects come to officials' attention? How are the alternatives from which they choose generated? How is the governmental agenda set? Why does an idea's time come when it does? Longman is proud to announce that Agendas, Alternatives, and Public Policies has been reissued in this Longman Classics edition, featuring a new epilogue: Health Care Reform from Clinton to Obama. Comparing the Clinton administration in 1993 with the Obama administration in 2009 and 2010, Kingdon analyses how agenda setting, actors, and alternatives affect public policy.
