Pensão alimentícia internacional
Descubra os segredos da pensão alimentícia internacional. Nessa obra, o autor Sidney Marcos de Melo nos convida a uma imersão nas profundas águas do Direito de Família e do Direito Internacional, revelando as características, desafios e mistérios envolvendo os alimentos internacionais, sem deixar de percorrer as bases teóricas, legislativas e jurisprudenciais que permeiam a obrigação alimentar, a execução de alimentos e a famigerada prisão civil do devedor de alimentos. Aprenda de forma simples (e por vezes sarcástica) as nuances acerca dos mecanismos de cooperação jurídica internacional, voltados para o processamento das ações de alimentos no exterior, bem como acerca dos diplomas internacionais sobre a prestação alimentar: a Convenção Interamericana Sobre Obrigação Alimentar; a Convenção Sobre a Prestação de Alimentos no Estrangeiro - Convenção de Nova Iorque; a Convenção Sobre a Cobrança Internacional de Alimentos para Crianças e Outros Membros da Família - nova Convenção de Haia Sobre Alimentos e muito mais. Uma imperdível e memorável jornada do conhecimento pelos lagos secretos da pensão alimentícia. Mergulhe agora.
From Itinerant Trade to Moneylending in the Era of Financial Inclusion
This book analyses how Calon Gypsies in Brazil have responded to global financial transformations and shifted their economic practices from itinerant trade to moneylending. It also explores their role as ethnic credit providers, offering rare insight into the financial lives of poor and lower-middle-class Brazilians. More broadly, this volume examines how ethnic difference is created in a context where fixed and collective structures supporting ethnic identity are missing. It is important reading for economic anthropologists, cultural economists and all those interested in processes of financialisation from a local perspective, as well as those fascinated by informal economies, how exchange and debt relate to social and political marginality, and how financial credit becomes 'domesticated' by communities.
Socio-Environmental Research in Latin America
This contributed volume presents relevant examples of socio-environmental research that highlight the challenges and opportunities of using geotechnologies in interdisciplinary settings across the vast, culturally, and environmentally mega-diverse region known as Latin America. While remote sensing has been mostly used for mapping and monitoring physical features, geographic information systems open up opportunities for the integration of socio-economic and environmental data collected through individual and community-based surveys, in-situ measurements, and other participatory research techniques to offer additional analytically grounded power when evaluating socio-environmental processes t...
Violence in the City of Women
Brazil's innovative all-female police stations, installed as part of the return to civilian rule in the 1980s, mark the country's first effort to police domestic violence against women. Sarah J. Hautzinger's vividly detailed, accessibly written study explores this phenomenon as a window onto the shifting relationship between violence and gendered power struggles in the city of Salvador da Bahia. Hautzinger brings together distinct voices—unexpectedly macho policewomen, the battered women they are charged with defending, indomitable Bahian women who disdain female victims, and men who grapple with changing pressures related to masculinity and honor. What emerges is a view of Brazil's policing experiment as a pioneering, and potentially radical, response to demands of the women's movement to build feminism into the state in a society fundamentally shaped by gender.

Political Struggle, Ideology, and State Building
The collapse of the Portuguese empire in the Americas in the early nineteenth century did not immediately or easily translate into the formation of the independent nation-state of Brazil. While "Brazil" had geographic meaning, it did not constitute a cohesive political identity that could draw on basic loyalties. The tumultuous struggle to nationhood in Brazil was marked by the interplay of differing social groups, political parties, and regions. A series of violent revolts in Pernambuco, a large slaveholding, sugar-producing province in northeastern Brazil, exposed the tensions accompanying state and nation building. Political Struggle, Ideology, and State Building delves into the complex a...
Epitope Discovery and Synthetic Vaccine Design
Since variolation, conventional approaches to vaccine development are based on live-attenuated, inactivated or purified pathogen-derived components. However, effective vaccines against global health threats such as HIV, parasite infections and tumors are difficult to achieve. On the other hand, synthetic vaccines based on immunogenic epitopes offer advantages over traditional vaccines since they are chemically defined antigens free from deleterious effects. Additionally, in contrast to live-attenuated vaccines, they do not revert to virulence in immunocompromised subjects, and different from genetic vaccines, they do not involve ethical questions. Traditional vaccines contain PAMPs and induc...
