Estudar as várias formas de negócios jurídicos relacionados as atividades da cadeia de insumos, produção, industrialização, distribuição e logística, atrelados à uma cadeia de produção específica é central ao Direito contemporâneo. Nesta segunda edição revisitamos os temas existentes, os atualizamos segundo a legislação vigente e, respeitando ao dinamismo do mercado e do próprio Direito, trouxemos novos temas de interesse, com o escopo de que o estudo aproxime-se da completude que o setor requer e impõe aos seus aplicadores. Direito Internacional, Direito Agrário, Direito Comercial e o Direito Ambiental são os ramos citados e desenvolvidos nesta segunda edição, em temas atuais e relevantes, tanto para a discussão acadêmica, como para a geração de respostas à prática dos mercados.
A presente obra irá se concentrar na análise de questões atuais e relevantes concernentes ao agronegócio, sob o espeque jurídico, principalmente no que tange aos ramos do Direito Civil, Direito Agrário e Direito Ambiental. Aqui não far-se-á coletânea exauriente, mas, propositalmente, apenas um apanhado de importantes assuntos, que impactam a sistematização de um novo conceito voltado à ordem empresarial, que abraça a atividade agropecuária, a inserindo, de uma vez por todas, no conceito moderno de agronegócio, conhecido, até certo tempo, em sua expressão de língua inglesa “agribusiness”. Agronegócio, em linhas gerais, pode ser caracterizado como toda...
Bertrand Russel nos ensinou que “quando um homem primitivo, nas brumas da pré-história, guardou um naco de carne para o dia seguinte depois de saciar a fome, aí estava nascendo a previdência”; pensar no futuro, no amanhã, e principalmente se precaver para a próxima fase da vida é uma necessidade do ser humano. Com o advento da Revolução Industrial, surgem os contornos atuais do chamado Direito do Trabalho, com a aprovação de Leis regulando as relações entre empregadores e empregados, visando, sobretudo, à proteção dos últimos. Porém, quando o cidadão perdia sua condição de trabalho, não havia quem o protegesse; os Estados, então, passam a desenvolver formas de prot...
Proteins, Pathologies and Politics presents an international and historical approach to dietary change and health, contrasting current concerns with how issues such as diabetes, cancer, vitamins, sugar and fat, and food allergies were perceived in the 19th and 20th centuries. Though what we eat and what we shouldn't eat has become a topic of increased scrutiny in the current century, the link between dietary innovation and health/disease is not a new one. From new fads in foodstuffs, through developments in manufacturing and production processes, to the inclusion of additives and evolving agricultural practices changing diet, changes often promised better health only to become associated wit...
This volume, consisting of papers originally delivered at the Sport and Fashion symposium in 2011, celebrates the connection between sport and the clothes and fashion which are associated with certain sporting activities. Articles include a study of Olympic swimming costumes, women's sport during the inter-war period, the use of sportsmen by clothing industries for brand marketing, and the aesthetic significance of certain items of clothing, specifically the shirt worn by Maradona during the 1986 Argentina-England World Cup quarter final.

A nossa tese ocupa-se da resolução de conflitos desportivos em Portugal, dando-se ênfase à relação que se estabelece entre a jurisdição estadual e a esfera de resolução de conflitos desportivos no seio do associativismo desportivo no domínio do Direito Público, o que nos remete para o fenómeno de entidades privadas que exercem poderes públicos. Estudou-se a autonomia do sistema de resolução de conflitos desportivos face à jurisdição estadual, analisando particularmente a instituição legal da arbitragem necessária do Tribunal Arbitral do Desporto. Desenvolveu-se um trabalho em torno da tese de saber se a existência de uma relação de desigualdade estrutural entre o associativismo desportivo e os agentes desportivos no plano do Direito material pode ter ou não efeitos no plano processual.
On October 1922 Mussolini became head of the Italian government, a situation that would last for twenty years. That power was obtained was largely due to the widespread violence perpetrated by blackshirts throughout Italy (squadristi). Violence however did not end. Old and new blackshirts played a major role in making Italy a fascist country. Contrary to the claims of many scholars that have depicted blackshirts after the March on Rome only as troublemakers for Mussolini, the book shows that they played a crucial role in establishing a full and totalitarian dictatorship. Squadristi carried out processes of fascistisation, crushed opponents and convinced bystanders and dubious people, consoli...
Rereading Travellers to the East aim to offer a new perspective on travel literature, the question of nation-building and the history of orientalism. Rereading Travellers focuses on the rereadings to which early modern travel literature about Asia has been subjected by different actors involved in the political, economic, cultural and intellectual life of post-unification Italy. The authors highlight how this literature has been reinterpreted and reused for political and ideological purposes in the context of the formation and reformation of collective identities, from the Risorgimento to the Fascist regime and the early republic. By showing the potential of the notion of rereading, the volume outlines a history of the political and cultural legacy of travel literature which goes well beyond Italy.
What role has football (and sport in general) played in Hungarian foreign policy? Was there a continuity between the inter-war period and communism? Are foreign politics and sporting diplomacy synonyms? This book tries to provide answers to these questions through a careful examination of documents of the Hungarian Foreign Ministry and Hungarian newspapers, supplemented by documentation from several European countries. Through Hungarian football, the author traces a history of Hungary during the Age of Extremes with a special focus on the period during which sport played a particular role in Hungarian foreign policy: from 1924, the date of the Paris Olympics, the first time the country competed after World War I, to 1960, date of the Olympics of Rome. The result is a study from a particularly original perspective, highlighting, first and foremost, the transnational dimension of Hungarian football.
Focusing on extreme environments, from Umberto Nobile’s expedition to the Arctic to the commercialization of Mt Everest, this volume examines global environmental margins, how they are conceived and how perceptions have changed. Mountaintops and Arctic environments are the settings of social encounters, political strategies, individual enterprises, geopolitical tensions, decolonial practises, and scientific experiments. Concentrating on mountaineering and Arctic exploration between 1880 – 1960, contributors to this volume show how environmental marginalisation has been discursively implemented and materially generated by foreign and local actors. It examines to what extent the status and...
