When God Gives Life a Purpose

When God gives life a purpose, everything is transformed, and the sun will always shine, even in the midst of winter! This is the author's personal account of her life journey, where she discovers her faith in God and the resilience to persevere. The book delves deeper than self-help, emphasizing living in Cod while facing life's adversities and triumphing over them. The studies were carried out with exceptional devotion to construct sound biblical solutions. The ideas display an innovative trait and uncover plentiful prospects. Their luminosity, perseverance, and capacity to convey meanings make them authentic spiritual gifts that are available to everyone and signify a condition to be unraveled. In general, the relationship between the Word and the idea promotes the relationship between new concepts, attitudes, and changes. The quality of the text is determined by the complex and enigmatic process of aligning the presented elements with the social-cognitive content. Reading is viewed as an intentional concept, where the participants are active agents who construct themselves and each other through dialogic exchanges.

Social dialogue and the role of the brazilian labour inspection in dealing with the new Coronavirus pandemic

Social dialogue and labour inspection are essential to promote and achieve decent work and are also important in times of crisis. After a brief historical review of social dialogue in Brazil in recent years, the experience of the Brazilian labour inspection in dealing with the crisis caused by the new coronavirus pandemic is described and later compared with the practices adopted by labour inspectorates in other countries. Data collection includes interviews with two social partners and an international survey with the participation of representatives from twelve countries. In the end, guidelines are proposed on how the performance of labour inspection and the use of social dialogue should be in the face of a crisis with negative economic effects in order to overcome it quickly and without major problems, generating beneficial and lasting results in the world of work and helping to recover the economy.

The End of Democracy

Gilberto Lopes, with this profound and provocative study based on an ingenious imaginary dialogue between Alexis de Tocqueville (1805-1859) and Karl Marx (1818-1883) on democracy, presents us with a disturbing work on one of the most important debates in today's political world. This work arises from a practical concern, from a life experience and a political restlessness, but also from a theoretical curiosity to make a journey inspired by the work of these two great thinkers who approached the history of their time with particular acuity and erudition. The relevance of the approaches presented here is evident as we face, day by day, the challenges that the "democracy" of today's world must confront: growing inequality, greater concentration of wealth, absurd wars and ever deeper and more widespread environmental deterioration. Faced with the state of political and economic confusion that reigns everywhere, Gilberto Lopes proposes, in a renewed and necessary debate on democracy and socialism, to glimpse the signs of progress on the road to equality suggested by Tocqueville as the great engine of history. This book aims to help us successfully reach the end of that road.
