Download or read book Direito concorrencial as estruturas written by Calixto Salomão Filho and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Um livro sobre Direito Concorrencial deve cumprir um dúplice objetivo. De um lado, compilar criticamente a ainda incipiente evolução doutrinária, legal e jurisprudencial da matéria, fornecendo material útil para a aplicação prática do Direito. De outro, sistematizar, tornando o Direito Concorrencial uma estrutura coerente e orgânica. Parte deste trabalho é, também, indicar problemas e sugerir soluções. Nesse ponto, o auxílio do Direito Comparado é fundamental, em face da insuficiência da doutrina e jurisprudência brasileiras sobre a matéria. Ambos os aspectos estão presentes neste livro. O próprio título demonstra a preocupação em sistematizar o objeto da análise - as concentrações e cooperações entre empresas. Com a ajuda do estudo da doutrina e casuística estrangeiras - especialmente a americana e europeia - e de uma profunda análise dos fundamentos econômicos do Direito Concorrencial, criam-se as condições para a análise crítica que se faz a seguir da doutrina e jurisprudência brasileiras. O interesse da obra é destacado ainda pela atualidade de tópicos como as relações entre Direito Concorrencial e privatizações ou concessões de serviço público e a aplicação desse ramo do Direito às áreas como telecomunicações e energia elétrica.

Download or read book Legacies Logics Logistics written by Jane I. Guyer and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2016-05-27 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Legacies, Logics, Logistics brings together a set of essays, written both before and after the financial crisis of 2007–08, by eminent Africanist and economic anthropologist Jane I. Guyer. Each was written initially for a conference on a defined theme. When they are brought together and interpreted as a whole by Guyer, these varied essays show how an anthropological and socio-historical approach to economic practices—both in the West and elsewhere—can illuminate deep facets of economic life that the big theories and models may fail to capture. Focusing on economic actors—whether ordinary consumers or financial experts—Guyer traces how people and institutions hold together past experiences (legacies), imagined scenarios and models (logics), and situational challenges (logistics) in a way that makes the performance of economic life (on platforms made of these legacies, logics, and logistics) work in practice. Individual essays explore a number of topics—including time frames and the future, the use of percentages in observations and judgments, the explanation of prices, the coexistence of different world currencies, the reapplication of longtime economic theories in new settings, and, crucially, how we talk about the economy, how we use stable terms to describe a turbulent system. Valuable as standalone pieces, the essays build into a cogent method of economic anthropology.
Download or read book Advertising The Uneasy Persuasion RLE Advertising written by Michael Schudson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-06-26 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What does advertising do? Is it the faith of a secular society? If so, why does it inspire so little devotion? Advertising, the Uneasy Persuasion is a clear-eyed account of advertising as both business and social institution. Instead of fuelling the moral indignation surrounding the industry, or feeding fantasies of powerful manipulators, Michael Schudson presents a clear assessment of advertising in its wider sociological and historical framework, persuasively concluding that advertising is not nearly as important, effective, or scientifically founded as either its advocates or its critics imagine. ‘Dispassionate, open-minded and balanced ... he conveys better than any other recent author a sense of advertising as its practitioners understand it.’ Stephen Fox, New York Times Book Review First published in 1984.

Download or read book The Laws of Robots written by Ugo Pagallo and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-05-16 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores how the design, construction, and use of robotics technology may affect today’s legal systems and, more particularly, matters of responsibility and agency in criminal law, contractual obligations, and torts. By distinguishing between the behaviour of robots as tools of human interaction, and robots as proper agents in the legal arena, jurists will have to address a new generation of “hard cases.” General disagreement may concern immunity in criminal law (e.g., the employment of robot soldiers in battle), personal accountability for certain robots in contracts (e.g., robo-traders), much as clauses of strict liability and negligence-based responsibility in extra-contractual obligations (e.g., service robots in tort law). Since robots are here to stay, the aim of the law should be to wisely govern our mutual relationships.

Download or read book Antitrust and the Multivalued Function of Competition written by Luiz Felipe Rosa Ramos and published by . This book was released on 2021-07-23 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book offers a renewed approach to the debate on antitrust goals. Based on a legal-sociological perspective, it conceives competition as a form with social functions. Thus, competition is not a mere derivation of efficiency or consumer welfare, but an autonomous goal of antitrust which pervades cartel, unilateral conduct and merger cases. According to Tobias Werron, this is a great piece of scholarship (...) that suggests an openness of mind and independence of thought. Celso Campilongo writes: the publication of this work ought to be celebrated. It is far from trivial or usual to reconstruct (...) a sociology of antitrust law.

Download or read book The Human Face of War written by Jim Storr and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2011-10-27 with total page 399 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Warfare is hugely important. The fates of nations, and even continents, often rests on the outcome of war and thus on how its practitioners consider war. The Human Face of War is a new exploration of military thought. It starts with the observation that much military thought is poorly developed - often incoherent and riddled with paradox. The author contends that what is missing from British and American writing on warfare is any underpinning mental approach or philosophy. Why are some tank commanders, snipers, fighter pilots or submarine commanders far more effective than others? Why are many generals sacked at the outbreak of war? The Human Face of War examines such phenomena and seeks to explain them. The author argues that military thought should be based on an approach which reflects the nature of combat. Combat - fighting - is primarily a human phenomenon dominated by human behaviour. The book explores some of those human issues and their practical consequences. The Human Face of War calls for, and suggests, a new way of considering war and warfare.
