The Socio-Economic Impacts of Artisanal and Small-Scale Mining in Developing Countries
The purpose of this book is to examine both the positive and negative socioeconomic impacts of artisanal and small-scale mining in developing countries. In recent years, a number of governments have attempted to formalize this rudimentary sector of industry, recognizing its socioeconomic importance. However, the industry continues to be plagued by
The Nazi Party and the German Communities Abroad
The Nazi Party and the German Communities Abroad examines the German Nazi Party’s actions around the world in the 1930s and 1940s. The book particularly focuses in on the formation and development of the Auslandsorganization der NSDAP (AO) (Nazi Party/Foreign Organization), the party branch charged with the task of connecting with foreign fascist movements and, especially with Germans living abroad. The authors follow the creation of the AO and its development in Germany, along with its actions throughout the world, including Europe, Asia, Africa and North America, before finally focusing on Latin America. The Latin American case is then presented in both general and particular aspects, including countries such as Argentina, Chile, Brazil, Mexico and Colombia. The study draws on many primary sources and is extensively referenced; an index with 700 references related to the action of Nazism in the American continent is presented, including the American and Canadian cases. This volume will be of interest to researchers of the history of Nazism and Latin America.

Uma história das leishmanioses no novo mundo
Do ponto de vista historiográfico e metodológico, a maior contribuição do livro é a capacidade dos autores de concatenar diferentes sujeitos e territórios na longa duração, estabelecendo fluxos geracionais, identificando influências intelectuais, mapeando genealogias e trajetórias, conectando diferentes tempos e espaços em torno de uma doença – a leishmaniose –, fazendo confluir múltiplos e independentes canais de energia criativa, digamos assim, para uma espécie de ponto de fuga. Ao mesmo tempo em que caracterizam uma comunidade epistêmica, tecem narrativas paralelas, tal como um argumento que se desenvolve em camadas. Por exemplo, esmiuçam as controvérsias científicas...
Emerging Powers in a Comparative Perspective
The book examines the rising influence of emerging powers in global politics, with a special focus on the BRIC countries (Brazil, Russia, India, China). Chapters contributed by international scholars first look at the changing status of the US in the 21st century and at the EU as both an emerging and innovative power. China's rising power status, India's regional and global influence, Russia's re-emergence, and Brazil's growing regional and international role are then analyzed comparatively to explain how the BRIC states are poised to become vital players not only in politics and economy, but also in key international concerns such as terrorism, globalization, and climate change. The book provides a detailed analysis of political, economic, security, and foreign policy trends in the BRIC countries to address such questions as to whether they will seek to revise the international order or work within it and how they will deal with transnational global problems. Using a unique comparative approach, the text will appeal to undergraduate students in world politics, international relations, and foreign policy.
