The Killing Consensus
We hold many assumptions about police workÑthat it is the responsibility of the state, or that police officers are given the right to kill in the name of public safety or self-defense. But in The Killing Consensus, Graham Denyer Willis shows how in S‹o Paulo, Brazil, killing and the arbitration of ÒnormalÓ killing in the name of social order are actually conducted by two groupsÑthe police and organized crimeÑboth operating according to parallel logics of murder. Based on three years of ethnographic fieldwork, Willis's book traces how homicide detectives categorize two types of killing: the first resulting from ÒresistanceÓ to police arrest (which is often broadly defined) and the se...

Peixe-elétrico Plataforma da nova geração
Peixe-elétrico – Plataforma da nova geração é um convite ao pensamento aberto, crítico e inconformista. Vinte intelectuais da nova geração enfrentam a difícil tarefa de pensar o Brasil contemporâneo. Inspirados no famoso livro Plataforma da nova geração de 1945, que teve entre seus convidados Antonio Candido e Paulo Emílio Sales Gomes, Peixe-elétrico enviou as seguintes questões, com o intuito de fornecer alguns caminhos para os textos de nossos convidados: Como entende o lugar do Brasil no mundo hoje? O que pensa das chamadas Jornadas de Junho de 2013? Como define o governo Bolsonaro? Acredita haver uma marca geracional que atravessa a sua produção? Qual seria? Como você definiria a sua geração? É possível identificar um sentimento principal que atravessa as suas reflexões? Diferente do livro original, por geração nos aproximamos do conceito de outsider – intelectuais que começam agora, independente da idade, a ganhar voz no meio acadêmico ou a encontrar seu espaço nas mídias. E no lugar de uma plataforma bem organizada, buscamos a contradição entre os textos aqui apresentados.

Greening Brazil
Greening Brazil challenges the claim that environmentalism came to Brazil from abroad. Two political scientists, Kathryn Hochstetler and Margaret E. Keck, retell the story of environmentalism in Brazil from the inside out, analyzing the extensive efforts within the country to save its natural environment, and the interplay of those efforts with transnational environmentalism. The authors trace Brazil’s complex environmental politics as they have unfolded over time, from their mid-twentieth-century conservationist beginnings to the contemporary development of a distinctive socio-environmentalism meant to address ecological destruction and social injustice simultaneously. Hochstetler and Kec...

Projeto Athos
A presente obra realizou um Estudo de Caso sobre a ferramenta de Inteligência Artificial denominada Athos, no âmbito do Superior Tribunal de Justiça. Apresentada em 2019, essa solução de IA utiliza sua principal vertente no Núcleo de Gerenciamento de Precedentes e de Ações Coletivas (NUGEPNAC), e consiste no monitoramento e agrupamento de processos, com vistas à criação de novos Temas Repetitivos daquela Corte. Fundamentada em vasta pesquisa bibliográfica, o estudo iniciou com a coleta de dados na base de temas repetitivos do Tribunal e em dados de indicadores estratégicos disponibilizados pela equipe do NUGEPNAC e da Assessoria de Inteligência Artificial (AIA). Posteriormente, efetuou-se a análise dos dados com o apoio de ferramentas de Business Intelligence (BI) e a apresentação dos respectivos resultados.
Forensic Pathology Reviews Vol 3
A collection of cutting-edge accounts of special topics from various fields of forensic pathology and death scene investigation. The authors offer critical insight into the medicolegal investigation of bodies found in water, the forensic aspects of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-1 infection of the central nervous system, deaths in a head-down position, and forensic bitemark analysis. Additional chapters address taphonomic changes in human bodies during the early postmortem interval, arrhythmogenic ventricular dysplaisia that produces sudden death in young people, the postmortem diagnosis of death in anaphylaxis, and iatrogenici deaths. The forensic aspects of suicide, murder-suicide, and suicide trends in the United States are also discussed, along with the evaluation of fatal pulmonary thromboembolism and the use of radiology in medicolegal investigations.
Food Hygiene, Microbiology and HACCP
Food microbiology is a fascinating and challenging science. It is also very demanding with a constantly changing sea of guidelines, regulations and equip ment. Public concerns over food safety issues can overemphasize certain risks and detract from the normal hygienic practice of food manufacturers. This new edition aims to update anyone concerned with the hygienic production of food on key issues of HACCP, food microbiology and the methods of microbe detection. I have taken a 'crystal ball' approach to certain topics. The use of rapid techniques such as lux gene technology and polymerase chain reaction (DNA probes) are progressing so rapidly in the research laboratory that when this book is...
What Can I Do When Everything's On Fire?: A Novel
A soaring, symphonic epic by the Portuguese master novelist, considered to be the "heir to Conrad and Faulkner" (George Steiner). The razor-thin line between reality and madness is transgressed in this Faulknerian masterpiece, António Lobo Antunes's first novel to appear in English in five years. What Can I Do When Everything's On Fire?, set in the steamy world of Lisbon's demimonde—a nightclub milieu of scorching intensity and kaleidoscopic beauty, a baleful planet populated by drag queens, clowns, and drug addicts—is narrated by Paolo, the son of Lisbon's most legendary transvestite, who searches for his own identity as he recalls the harrowing death of his father, Carlos; the life of Carlos's lover, Rui, a heroin addict and suicide; as well as the other denizens of this hallucinatory world. Psychologically penetrating, pregnant with literary symbolism, and deeply sympathetic in its depiction of society's dregs, Lobo Antunes's novel ventriloquizes the voices of the damned in a poetic masterwork that recalls Joyce's Ulysses with a dizzying farrago of urban images few readers will forget.
