Global Private International Law
Providing a unique and clearly structured tool, this book presents an authoritative collection of carefully selected global case studies. Some of these are considered global due to their internationally relevant subject matter, whilst others demonstrate the blurring of traditional legal categories in an age of accelerated cross-border movement. The study of the selected cases in their political, cultural, social and economic contexts sheds light on the contemporary transformation of law through its encounter with conflicting forms of normativity and the multiplication of potential fora.
Imposto Sobre Grandes Fortunas
O Imposto sobre Grandes Fortunas – IGF – é um tributo carregado de ideologia e finalidade sociológica desde sua criação na Assembleia Nacional Constituinte. Foi criado para funcionar como instrumento de promoção da equidade tributária e justiça social. É o único imposto da Constituição de 1988 que não foi implementado e esta inércia do legislador se dá por questões políticas. Esta obra explica a importância de a matriz tributária brasileira, hoje apoiada na tributação sobre o consumo, passar a tributar mais patrimônio e renda e menos consumo. Analisa os 43 projetos de lei complementar que têm por escopo disciplinar o IGF em tramitação no Congresso Nacional, detal...

Postwar
WITH A NEW FOREWORD BY TIMOTHY GARTON-ASH A magisterial and acclaimed history of post-war Europe, from Germany to Poland, from Western Europe to Eastern Europe, selected as one of New York Times Ten Best Books of the Year Europe in 1945 was drained. Much of the continent was devastated by war, mass slaughter, bombing and chaos. Large areas of Eastern Europe were falling under Soviet control, exchanging one despotism for another. Today, the Soviet Union is no more and the democracies of the European Union reach as far as the borders of Russia itself. Postwar tells the rich and complex story of how we got from there to here, demystifying Europe's recent history and identity, of what the contin...
A Geração de Ouro - Viagem ao processo que revolucionou o futebol Português
Portugal foi duas vezes campeão do mundo de futebol de sub 20 em 1989 e 1991. A coragem mas sobretudo a visão do professor Carlos Queiroz contribuíram extraordinariamente para o sucesso, inspirando uma geração de jovens futebolistas a acreditarem no seu talento. Pode-se afirmar, sem forçar a nota, que Carlos Queiroz agitou, transformou e revolucionou o futebol português na questão da metodologia do treino, mas também na própria estrutura organizativa da Federação Portuguesa de Futebol. Convidamos, pois, os leitores a embarcar nesta viagem única pelo futebol português, num trabalho incisivo e de exaustiva pesquisa, e sustentado com relatos surpreendentes e em discurso directo de quem escreveu a história - Carlos Queiroz e Nelo Vingada, João Pinto e Paulo Sousa, Jorge Costa, Abel Xavier e Peixe entre outros.

Villa-Lobos and Modernism
Villa-Lobos and Modernism: The Apotheosis of Cannibal Music provides a new assessment of the Brazilian composer Heitor Villa-Lobos in terms of his contributions to the Modernist Movement of the twentieth century. In this profound study, Ricardo Averbach elevates Cultural Cannibalism as a major manifestation of the Modernist aesthetics and Villa-Lobos as its top exponent in the music field. Villa-Lobos’s anthropophagic appetite for multiple opposing aesthetics enlightens through the juxtaposition of contradictory elements, leaving a legacy of unmatched originality, a glittering kaleidoscope of sounds that draw from the radical power of Josephine Baker to the outrageous extravagance of Carme...
