Peace, Justice and International Order discusses this question in the light of John Rawls' The Law of Peoples, offers a new approach to Rawls' international theory and contributes to the discourse on international peace and justice.
A Cátedra Jean Monnet FECAP lança esta obra, capaz de compilar alguns debates e discussões em torno dos Estudos Europeus (desde uma realidade e contornos do Sul Global) em dois eixos centrais e complementares: uma parte primeira, dedicada a abordar as Políticas Europeias para Direitos Humanos e Democracia: contrabalanceamentos do déficit democrático?; e a segunda parte, voltada à abordagem da Vulnerabilidade em múltiplas dimensões: experiências europeias e perspectivas comparadas. Contando com autores de diversos backgrounds e inserções acadêmicas, a obra não só se debruça sobre os debates que a Cátedra em questão colaborou para construir em torno das políticas europeias para democracia e direitos humanos desde o Brasil, sobretudo, como também lança luz sobre o contexto global contemporâneo e que desafia de muitas formas, em um espectro local-global, os distintos modos pelos quais algumas políticas europeias são disseminadas enquanto outras são obstaculizadas de forma muito contundente.
Este Dicionário Feminista Brasileiro reúne 68 verbetes, escritos por mais de 50 mulheres de diferentes áreas profissionais e localidades do país, que desenvolvem importantes conceitos para a compreensão dos feminismos. Com isso, essa obra objetiva propor reflexões e contribuir para o debate feminista no Brasil, buscando uma discussão interdisciplinar e crítica, que repense as hierarquias de gênero e contribua para um pensamento crítico que vise à emancipação e igualdade das mulheres, sem desconsiderar as interseccionalidades das opressões que as atravessam.
This book considers the environmental policies that the EU employs outside its borders. Using a systematic and coherent approach to cover a range of EU activities, environmental issues, and geographical areas, it charts the EU’s attempts to shape environmental governance beyond its borders. Key questions addressed include: What environmental norms, rules and policies does the EU seek to promote outside its territory? What types of activities does the EU engage in to pursue these objectives? How successful is the EU in achieving its external environmental policy objectives? What factors explain the degree to which the EU attains its goals? The book will be of interest to students and academics as well as practitioners in governments (both inside and outside of the EU), the EU institutions, think tanks, and research institutes.

This groundbreaking book collects contributions from many of the world's leading climate and energy law scholars and provides the first major study of national Climate Change Acts. This cutting-edge type of legislation originated with the first Climate Change Act framework which was passed in the United Kingdom in 2008, and is intended to enable the law to grapple effectively with one of the great problems of our times, anthropogenic climate change. Since 2008, national framework climate legislation has been slowly but steadily emerging in countries across the world. This trailblazing collection employs a comparative analytical legal methodology and offers the first comprehensive study of th...
Comparative case studies and analyses of the influence of domestic politics on countries' climate change policies and Kyoto ratification decisions. Climate change represents a “tragedy of the commons” on a global scale, requiring the cooperation of nations that do not necessarily put the Earth's well-being above their own national interests. And yet international efforts to address global warming have met with some success; the Kyoto Protocol, in which industrialized countries committed to reducing their collective emissions, took effect in 2005 (although without the participation of the United States). Reversing the lens used by previous scholarship on the topic, Global Commons, Domesti...
