Administração de Sociedades Anónimas e Responsabilidade dos Administradores
Neste livro estuda-se o regime da administração das sociedades anónimas, percorrendo um conjunto muito variado de problemas relacionados com o estatuto dos administradores. É dada especial atenção aos deveres e responsabilidade dos membros do órgão de administração daquelas sociedades, complementando o que o autor anteriormente escreveu sobre representação e fiscalização das sociedades anónimas. São temas que têm surgido enquadrados no que é designado por governação das sociedades (Corporate Governance) e que voltam a assumir um lugar de destaque quando a ameaça de nova crise paira sobre o país e o Mundo. O texto procurou já trazer para a discussão algumas soluções que o legislador nacional avançou para enfrentar a pandemia que nos ameaça e dá relevo ao risco de insolvência com que muitos administradores têm de lidar
China-US Rivalry and Regional Reordering in Latin America and the Caribbean
This book provides a comprehensive, conceptual and analytical framework for understanding the reordering process in the Latin American and Caribbean (LAC) region, driven and shaped by China–US rivalry. It demonstrates the differences between China–US, China–LAC and US–LAC relations and questions to what extent the LAC region can be considered a unified actor. Exploring broad perspectives such as global governance, international institutions, trade, security policy, climate change, multilateralism and regional and global peace and stability, the contributors also consider China’s Belt and Road Initiative, the Community of Latin American and Caribbean States (CELAC) and “minilateral” cooperation, sustainable development and business and the role of soft power, such as tourism and education in China–LAC relations. This timely and important contribution analyzing the changing regional order in the LAC region brought about by China’s global rise and increasing hegemonic competition with the US will appeal to scholars and student of international relations, international political economy, and security studies.
Representations of China in Latin American Literature (1987-2016)
An Open Access edition of this book is available on the Liverpool University Press website and the OAPEN library as part of the Opening the Future project with COPIM. Representations of China in Latin American Literature (1987-2016) analyses contemporary Latin American novels in which China is the main theme. Using ‘China’ as a multidimensional term, it explores how the novels both highlight and undermine assumptions about China that have shaped Latin America’s understanding of ‘China’ and shows ‘China’ to be a kind of literary/imaginary ‘third’ term which reframes Latin American discourses of alterity. On one level, it argues that these texts play with the way that ‘Chin...
Direito das Sociedades
O presente estudo centra-se nos problemas fundamentais do ciclo de vida das sociedades, dialogando jurídico-normativamente com a regulação da Parte Geral do Código das Sociedades Comerciais. A esta linha condutora que vai desde a constituição da sociedade comercial e civil em forma comercial até ao encerramento da liquidação acrescenta-se, ainda, o capítulo dedicado às relações de coligação entre sociedades. Certamente que este é um tema que não é regulado na Parte Geral do Código das Sociedades e, além disso, é dotado de natureza especial ou mesmo excecional. Justifica-se a inclusão deste capítulo no presente estudo porque verdadeiramente não se conhece uma economia de mercado e os seus agentes se não se perceber como funcionam as diversas relações de coligação intersocietária.
New Models of Financing and Financial Reporting for European SMEs
This book looks at the 23 million registered Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) that make up 98 per cent of the EU economy. Addressing the high end of SMEs in terms of new models for SME funding and financial reporting, this merged way of looking at SMEs reveals a ‘myopic’ thinking in terms of net present value and (future) cash flows generating short-termism and low risk appetite for business. This is not an accounting issue, but rather a preference toward certain financial tools. A segment of SMEs, the ones that seek new ways of funding possibilities, as well as modern technologies (MTFs listing, blockchain, ICOs, etc.) do require, even without knowing, IFRS for SMEs. This book reveal...

The Cartels
An up-to-date examination of Mexico's version of the "War on Drugs" that exposes the evolution of major cartels and their corruption of politicians, law-enforcement agencies, and the Army. What can President Enrique Peña Nieto do to curb the narcotics-induced mayhem in Mexico, and what would be the consequences to the United States if he fails? This book analyzes Mexico's transition from a relatively peaceful kleptocracy controlled by the Tammany-Hall style Institutional Revolutionary Party/PRI (19292000) to a country plagued by rural and urban enclaves of grotesque violence. The author examines the major drug cartels and their success in infiltrating American and Mexican businesses; details the response from the Obama administration; assesses the threat that the continuing bloodshed represents for the United States; and emphasizes the constraints on America's ability to solve Mexico's crisis, despite U.S. contributions of intelligence, military equipment, training, and diplomatic support.
Hyperborder
Roving vigilantes, fear-mongering politicians, hysterical pundits, and the looming shadow of a seven hundred-mile-long fence: the US–Mexican border is one of the most complex and dynamic areas on the planet today. Hyperborder provides the most nuanced portrait yet of this dynamic region. Author Fernando Romero presents a multidisciplinary perspective informed by interviews with numerous academics, researchers, and organizations. Provocatively designed in the style of other kinetic large-scale studies like Rem Koolhaas's Content and Bruce Mau’s Massive Change, Hyperborder is an exhaustively researched report from the front lines of the border debate.
