O Direito do Agronegócio Transnacional
A presente obra centra esforços na possibilidade de o agronegócio nacional ser a mola propulsora para a eficácia dos direitos humanos através de uma heurística empresarial sistêmica para as próximas décadas, desde que o Brasil implemente uma série de diretrizes e recomendações normativas impostas pelo Conselho Nacional de Direitos Humanos e pela própria OCDE nos próximos anos, principalmente porque, recentemente, inúmeras acusações de violação de direitos humanos estão atreladas ao setor agrícola nacional. Por meio de uma análise pragmático-sistêmica que marca a metodologia empregada nesta pesquisa, busca-se analisar as dificuldades de controle e responsabilização do...
Brickmakers
Author of International Booker Finalist Not a River Two young men, Pájaro Tamai and Marciano Miranda, are dying in a deserted amusement park. The story begins almost at its end, just after the two main characters have faced off in a knife fight: the culmination of a rivalry that has pitted them against one another since childhood. The present in Brickmakers is a state of impending death, at moments marked by dream-like visions: Marciano is visited by the ghost of his father, who was murdered when he was a teenager, a father he had sworn to avenge, in a promise he could not keep. Pájaro is also visited, in a recurring nightmare, by his abusive father who disappeared years earlier. Narrated with fury and passion, reminiscent of William Faulkner or Katherine Anne Porter, Brickmakers is a rural tragedy in the great American tradition, a story of love, honour and violence where everything is at stake. Reprising the powerful imagery and the filmic landscape of The Wind That Lays Waste, and the threatening atmosphere of Dead Girls, Brickmakers is yet another proof of Almada’s extraordinary talent.
The Independence of East Timor
This book is a history of the struggle for independence after East Timor was invaded by Indonesia in 1975. The occupation, which lasted 24 years, was immediately resisted through guerrilla warfare and clandestine resistance. A continuum of effort between the armed freedom fighters in the mountains, the resilience of urban supporters, and international activism and support eventually brought about liberation in September 1999. Given that the Timor rebels did not have a land border with a friendly state, had no external supplier of weapons and no liberated area in which to recover between guerrilla operations, their successful resistance is unique in the history of guerrilla warfare and indepe...
The Night Bus Hero
What does it take to turn a bully into a hero? Empathy and the power of forgiveness take center stage in this poignant novel by the award-winning author of The Boy at the Back of the Class. Getting in trouble is what Hector does best. He knows that not much is expected of him. In fact, he gets some of his most brilliant prank ideas while sitting in detention. But how far is too far? When Hector plays a prank on a homeless man and is seen and shamed by a schoolmate, he reaches a turning point. He wants to be viewed differently and decides to do something that will change his fate for the better. But will anyone take him seriously? This moving story told with humor and heart presents readers with some recognizable characters, like a bully and a teacher’s pet, and introduces them to some they may not be so familiar with— like those who are homeless, who live on the street, and whose stories are equally meaningful and important. Readers will feel motivated to see the best in others and hopeful that bad things can be overcome with effort.

Female Entrepreneurs in the Long Nineteenth Century
"This volume challenges those who see gender inequalities invariably defining and constraining the lives of women. But it also broadens the conversation about the degree to which business is a gender-blind institution, owned and managed by entrepreneurs whose gender identities shape and reflect economic and cultural change." – Mary A. Yeager, Professor Emerita, University of California, Los Angeles This is the first book to consider nineteenth-century businesswomen from a global perspective, moving beyond European and trans-Atlantic frameworks to include many other corners of the world. The women in these pages, who made money and business decisions for themselves rather than as employees,...
The Creole Elite and the Rise of Angolan Protonationalism
This book is about Angolan literature and culture. It investigates a segment of Angolan history and literature, with which even Portuguese-speaking readers are generally not familiar. Its main purpose is to define the features and the literary production of the so-called 'creole elite', as well as its contribution to the early manifestations of dissatisfaction towards colonial rule patent during a period of renewed Portuguese commitment to its African colonies, but also of unrealised ambitions, economic crisis, and socio-political upheaval in Angola and in Portugal itself. Nineteenth-century Angolan society was characterised by the presence of a semi-urbanised commercial and administrative e...

Fragmentos Criptomonetários
O livro utiliza a teoria do constitucionalismo social de Gunther Teubner para observar as interações entre o direito e a economia a partir do desenvolvimento tecnológico. Discute-se a criptonatureza do dinheiro e problematiza-se a natureza jurídica das criptomoedas destacando que, na sociedade atual, a regulamentação estatal dessa nova forma de dinheiro é um desafio. O Constitucionalismo Social de Teubner tenta demonstrar que a contenção desses sistemas, na sociedade mundial, assume a forma de autocontenção do próprio sistema e de seu meio.
