A Semana Nacional de Ciência e Tecnologia (SNCT), instituída em 2004, completou sua maioridade em 2021.

Fronteiras do Desenvolvimento na Amazônia: Agroculturas, Histórias Contestadas, Novas Alteridades
A floresta amazônica chegou ao ano de 2020 marcada pela tragédia. Desde o malfadado "dia do fogo" (10 de agosto de 2019), apresentado de forma bizarra como manifestação de apoio a um presidente descompromissado com a preservação desse bioma, milhares de hectares de mata queimaram continuamente, dia após dia. As consequências ainda estão se fazendo sentir. As perdas em biodiversidade são difíceis de calcular, mas certamente afetam os ecossistemas e os meios de vida das populações rurais e ribeirinhas. Os impactos sociais e ambientais são denunciados diuturnamente em todo o mundo, de maneira inútil. A sociedade brasileira manteve-se (não apenas sobre esse tema) estranhamente im...
Our Lady of the Nile
Friendship, deceit, fear, and persecution at an elite boarding school for young women in Rwanda, fifteen years before the 1994 genocide of the Tutsi . . . “Mukasonga’s masterpiece” (Julian Lucas, NYRB) Scholastique Mukasonga drops us into an elite Catholic boarding school for young women perched on the edge of the Nile. Parents send their daughters to Our Lady of the Nile to be molded into respectable citizens and to escape the dangers of the outside world. Fifteen years prior to the 1994 Rwandan genocide, we watch as these girls try on their parents’ preconceptions and attitudes, transforming the lycée into a microcosm of the country’s mounting racial tensions and violence. In the midst of the interminable rainy season, everything unfolds behind the closed doors of the school: friendship, curiosity, fear, deceit, prejudice, and persecution. With masterful prose that is at once subtle and penetrating, Mukasonga captures a society hurtling towards horror.

Food and Gender
This volume examines, among other things, the significance of food-centered activities to gender relations and the construction of gendered identities across cultures. It considers how each gender's relationship to food may facilitate mutual respect or produce gender hierarchy. This relationship is considered through two central questions: How does control of food production, distribution, and consumption contribute to men's and women's power and social position? and How does food symbolically connote maleness and femaleness and establish the social value of men and women? Other issues discussed include men's and women's attitudes towards their bodies and the legitimacy of their appetites.

Useful Plants of Neotropical Origin
This book deals with useful plants of neotropical origin, i.e., plants which have been cultivated in Southern and Central America as well as their wild relatives. Quite a number of these trees and bushes have "conquerred" the world as early as 400 years ago and are nowadays of utmost importance for feeding the increasing world population (e.g., potatoes). It has been estimated that about 150 such useful plants stem from the "New World." This book does not only describe the current theories about their domestication, cultivation, and evolution; it also discusses biotechnological methods for improving their productivity. About the German edition: ..". One of the most interesting and recurring themes of this book concerns some little-known species of potential value which may well become important to a future which is certain to present us with serious problems, at least as far as alimentation is considered.
