Women, Business and the Law 2021
Women, Business and the Law 2021 is the seventh in a series of annual studies measuring the laws and regulations that affect women’s economic opportunity in 190 economies. The project presents eight indicators structured around women’s interactions with the law as they move through their lives and careers: Mobility, Workplace, Pay, Marriage, Parenthood, Entrepreneurship, Assets, and Pension. This year’s report updates all indicators as of October 1, 2020 and builds evidence of the links between legal gender equality and women’s economic inclusion. By examining the economic decisions women make throughout their working lives, as well as the pace of reform over the past 50 years, Women, Business and the Law 2021 makes an important contribution to research and policy discussions about the state of women’s economic empowerment. Prepared during a global pandemic that threatens progress toward gender equality, this edition also includes important findings on government responses to COVID-19 and pilot research related to childcare and women’s access to justice.

Digital Era and Fuzzy Applications in Management and Economy
This book aims to contribute to the discussion about the implications of fuzzy logic, neural networks, digital era, and other intelligent techniques on organizations. This book will be very useful for academic researchers and postgraduate students aiming to introduce themselves to the field of quantitative techniques for overcoming uncertain environments and developing models to make decisions. Developments in other theories and socioeconomic and computational changes have shed light on the importance of fuzzy applications in social sciences. The treatment of uncertainty in the economic and business analysis is fundamental and requires instruments compatible with the uncertain environment of economics and business, because most of the traditional models have been overtaken by this reality when trying to make decisions with uncertain information. In the face of information technology, digitization, and uncertainty, organizations confront new opportunities and challenges. In order to take advantage of these opportunities and overcome current and future challenges, it is needed to understand the evolution of these phenomenon.

Community Series in Resident Memory T Cells: Guardians of the Balance of Local Immunity and Pathology, Volume II
As we learn more about the intricacies of immune interactions, the goalposts of ideal vaccination strategies change. It has become apparent that for many pathogens, immunizations should seek to optimize lymphocyte-mediated protection at their portals of entry, which is not likely to be accomplished with current intramuscular jabs. However, there are increased reports suggesting resident memory CD4 and CD8 T cells may, or indeed do, cause pathologies in the lung, gut, skin, pancreas, CNS, and adipose tissue. This is following chronic infection, immunization, or sensitization and it is becoming clearer that protective immunity ought to be finely balanced with the pathogenic capacity of the res...

Paying the Price of Freedom
Christine Hünefeldt documents in impressive, moving detail the striving and ingenuity, the hard-won triumphs and bitter defeats of slaves who sought liberation in nineteenth-century urban Peru. Drawing on judicial, ecclesiastical, and notarial records—including the testimony of the slaves themselves—she uncovers the various strategies slaves invented to gain their freedom. Hünefeldt pays particular attention to marriage relations and family life. Slaves used their family solidarity as a strategy, while slaveowners used the conflicts within families to prevent manumission. The author's focus on gender relations between slaveowners and slaves, as well as between slaves, is particularly o...
