Published in 2008 and winner of the 2011 Thomas E. Skidmore Prize, Paulo Fontes's Migration and the Making of Industrial São Paulo is a detailed social history of São Paulo's extraordinary urban and industrial expansion. Fontes focuses on those migrants who settled in the suburb of São Miguel Paulista, which grew from 7,000 residents in the 1940s to over 140,000 two decades later. Reconstructing these migrants' everyday lives within a broad social context, Fontes examines the economic conditions that prompted their migration, their creation of an integrated identity and community, and their efforts to gain worker rights. Fontes challenges the stereotypes of Northeasterners as culturally backward, uneducated, violent, and unreliable, instead seeing them as a resourceful population with considerable social and political resolve. Fontes's investigations into Northeastern life in São Miguel Paulista yield a fresh understanding of São Paulo's incredible and difficult growth while outlining how a marginalized population exercised its political agency.

La investigación enfoca la cuestión de la filosofía jurídica. Tiene como designio señalar algunos aspectos del Iuspositivismo de Kelsen. Habrá de verificarse que posicionamiento llamado dualista moderado habla de cómo el Tratado ingresa en el derecho brasileño. Apunta que el Brasil adopta el monismo moderado en caso de conflictos entre tratado y normas internas. En Brasil la Suprema Corte se ha afirmado en bases filosóficas del iuspositivismo para garantizar el Estado de juridicidad. Esto trabajo de investigación procura responder cómo El Iuspositivismo de Kelsen aún está presente en el ordenamiento jurídico brasileño y en las decisiones de Supremo Tribunal Federal do Brasil. A pesar de haber sufrido severas críticas, entre ellas de Carlos Cossio, Miguel Reale e Norberto Bobbio, aún Hans Kelsen es el jusfilósofo más debatido de la historia y contribuyó para muchos éxitos en el área del derecho público e internacional.

Throughout, the contributors make clear that education is more valuable to understanding--and p...
The global reception of Samuel Beckett raises numerous questions: in which areas of the world was Beckett first translated? Why were Beckett texts sometimes slow to penetrate certain cultures? How were national literatures impacted by Beckett's oeuvre? Translating Samuel Beckett around the World brings together leading researchers in Beckett studies to discuss these questions and explore the fate of Beckett in their own societies and national languages. The current text provides ample coverage of the presence of Beckett in geographical contexts normally ignored by literary criticism, and reveals unknown aspects of the 1969 Nobel Prize winner interacting with translators of his work in a number of different countries.
