In Spite of You
In October 2018 Brazilians elected Jair Bolsonaro as their new president. A former army officer who served under the military dictatorship, Bolsonaro has spent his political career campaigning against democracy and human rights. His notoriety comes from his repeated racist, sexist and homophobic statements and his defense of torture, extra-judicial executions and impunity for Brazil´s security forces. Bolsonaro is sometimes described as a “Tropical Trump.” But this wording greatly underestimates the threat that he poses to Brazil´s still young and fragile democratic institutions. In Spite of You brings together voices of the new Brazilian resistance. It includes chapters by Dilma Rouss...
Advances in Bioinformatics and Computational Biology
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Brazilian Symposium on Bioinformatics, BSB 2021, held in November 2021. Due to COVID-19 pandemic the conference was held virtually The 10 revised full papers and 5 short papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 28 submissions.

Migration and Agriculture
In recent years, Mediterranean agriculture has experienced important transformations which have led to new forms of labour and production, and in particular to a surge in the recruitment of migrant labour. The Mediterranean Basin represents a very interesting arena that is able to illustrate labour conditions and mobility, the competition among different farming models, and the consequences in terms of the proletarianization process, food crisis and diet changes. Migration and Agriculture brings together international contributors from across several disciplines to describe and analyse labour conditions and international migrations in relation to agri-food restructuring processes. This uniqu...

Selbst- und Fremdzuschreibungen im Kontext von Europa
Die vorliegende Arbeit geht auf die für die Schulpädagogik relevante Frage nach dem Umgang von Schülerinnen und Schülern mit kultureller Vielfalt und auf dessen Einflussfaktoren ein. Bezug genommen wird - bei sowohl auf die Anforderungen, die die zwischenstaatliche kulturelle Vielfalt – als Folge der europäischen Integration – an die Schülerinnen und Schüler stellt, als auch auf die Anforderungen, die die innergese- schaftliche kulturelle Vielfalt – als Folge der Migration innerhalb von und 1 nach Europa – an die Schülerinnen und Schüler stellt. Auf zwisch- staatlicher Ebene wäre das z. B. die Forderung, Mobilität über die Gr- zen der Nationalstaaten hinweg zu entwickeln,...
Severe Asthma
Severe asthma is a form of asthma that responds poorly to currently available medication, and its patients represent those with greatest unmet needs. In the last 10 years, substantial progress has been made in terms of understanding some of the mechanisms that drive severe asthma; there have also been concomitant advances in the recognition of specific molecular phenotypes. This ERS Monograph covers all aspects of severe asthma – epidemiology, diagnosis, mechanisms, treatment and management – but has a particular focus on recent understanding of mechanistic heterogeneity based on an analytic approach using various ‘omics platforms applied to clinically well-defined asthma cohorts. How these advances have led to improved management targets is also emphasised. This book brings together the clinical and scientific expertise of those from around the world who are collaborating to solve the problem of severe asthma.

Oshun's Daughters
Examines the ways in which the inclusion of African diasporic religious practices serves as a transgressive tool in narrative discourses in the Americas. Oshuns Daughters examines representations of African diasporic religions from novels and poems written by women in the United States, the Spanish Caribbean, and Brazil. In spite of differences in age, language, and nationality, these women writers all turn to variations of traditional Yoruba religion (Santería/Regla de Ocha and Candomblé) as a source of inspiration for creating portraits of womanhood. Within these religious systems, binaries that dominate European thoughtman/woman, mind/body, light/dark, good/evildo not function in ...
