Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: História do Direito, além de obrigatória nas Faculdades de Direito no Brasil, é uma disciplina que promove uma visão abrangente e plural do fenômeno jurídico. O normativismo tradicional presente em várias áreas é eclipsado pelo viés humanístico, pautado na capacidade de interpretar sistematicamente as relações humanas. O Manual de História do Direito oferece uma introdução à ciência jurídica como fenômeno histórico, proporcionando instrumentos para reflexão sobre os principais modelos de direito. Seus autores, professores especialistas na matéria, elaboraram o livro com base em sua ampla experiência em sala de aula para imprimir uma metodologia inovadora, de forma a dar luz a questões atinentes ao papel do discurso histórico na compreensão do direito. Em 15 capítulos, a obra abrange todo o conteúdo dos programas dos Cursos de Direito, de maneira didática e objetiva. Inicia-se com uma breve introdução às teorias da história, indo a seguir para as relações jurídicas entre os povos sem escrita, dando sequência com os modelos jurídicos egípcios, hebreus e os povos da Mesopotâmia e abordando ainda os direitos hindu e chinês. Posteriormente, são estudados o direito grego e o direito romano, o direito germânico, as escolásticas, chegando ao sistema do common law e ao direito dos muçulmanos. O direito pátrio é então esmiuçado, analisado desde o Brasil colônia, passando pelo Império e terminando na República. A 9a edição do Manual de História do Direito recebeu expressiva acolhida no meio acadêmico, sendo massivamente adotada nas Faculdades de Direito. Alunos e professores têm sido unânimes em apontar a obra como a melhor sobre a matéria. Contudo, esse sucesso não acomodou os autores, que se desafiaram a uma vez mais revisitar o conteúdo do livro, aperfeiçoando o texto de modo a oferecer uma obra didática e acessível ao estudante que tem seu primeiro contato com a disciplina de História do Direito. O resultado é esta 10a edição, que foi atualizada e ampliada, com destaque para novos itens nos Capítulos 2 e 15, além de apurar conceitos e institutos ao longo de todo o livro.

  • Author : Fernanda Pirie
  • Publisher : Basic Books
  • Release : 2021-11-09
  • ISBN : 1541617959
  • Pages : 565 pages

Download or read book The Rule of Laws written by Fernanda Pirie and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2021-11-09 with total page 565 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From ancient Mesopotamia to today, the epic story of how humans have used laws to forge civilizations Rulers throughout history have used laws to impose order. But laws were not simply instruments of power and social control. They also offered ordinary people a way to express their diverse visions for a better world. In The Rule of Laws, Oxford scholar Fernanda Pirie traces the rise and fall of the sophisticated legal systems underpinning ancient empires and religious traditions, while also showing how common people—tribal assemblies, merchants, farmers—called on laws to define their communities, regulate trade, and build civilizations. Although legal principles originating in Western Europe now seem to dominate the globe, the variety of the world’s laws has long been almost as great as the variety of its societies. What truly unites human beings, Pirie argues, is our very faith that laws can produce justice, combat oppression, and create order from chaos.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ninth installment of Bernard Cornwell’s bestselling series chronicling the epic saga of the making of England, “like Game of Thrones, but real” (The Observer, London)—the basis for The Last Kingdom, the hit television series coming to Netflix in Fall 2016. A fragile peace reigns in Wessex, Mercia and East Anglia. King Alfred’s son Edward and formidable daughter, Aethelflaed, rule the kingdoms. But all around the restless Northmen, eyeing the rich lands and wealthy churches, are mounting raids. Uhtred of Bebbanburg, the kingdoms’ greatest warrior, controls northern Mercia from the strongly fortified city of Chester. But forces are gathering against him. Northmen allied to the Irish, led by the fierce warrior Ragnall Ivarson, are soon joined by the Northumbrians, and their strength could prove overwhelming. Despite the gathering threat, both Edward and Aethelflaed are reluctant to move out of the safety of their fortifications. But with Uhtred’s own daughter married to Ivarson’s brother, who can be trusted? In the struggle between family and loyalty, between personal ambition and political commitment, there will be no easy path. But a man with a warrior’s courage may be able to find it. Such a man is Uhtred, and this may be his finest hour.

Book A Third Path

    Book Details:
  • Author : Melissa Teixeira
  • Publisher : Princeton University Press
  • Release : 2024-03-19
  • ISBN : 0691258155
  • Pages : 384 pages

Download or read book A Third Path written by Melissa Teixeira and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2024-03-19 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How Brazil and Portugal experimented with corporatism as a “third path” between laissez-faire capitalism and communism Following the Great Depression, as the world searched for new economic models, Brazil and Portugal experimented with corporatism as a “third path” between laissez-faire capitalism and communism. In a corporatist society, the government vertically integrates economic and social groups into the state so that it can manage labor and economic production. In the 1930s, the dictatorships of Getúlio Vargas in Brazil and António de Oliveira Salazar in the Portuguese Empire seized upon corporatist ideas to jump-start state-led economic development. In A Third Path, Melissa Teixeira examines these pivotal but still understudied initiatives. What distinguished Portuguese and Brazilian corporatism from other countries’ experiments with the mixed economy was how Vargas and Salazar dismantled liberal democratic institutions, celebrating their efforts to limit individual freedoms and property in pursuit of economic recovery and social peace. By tracing the movement of people and ideas across the South Atlantic, Teixeira vividly shows how two countries not often studied for their economic creativity became major centers for policy experimentation. Portuguese and Brazilian officials created laws and agencies to control pricing and production, which in turn generated new social frictions and economic problems, as individuals and firms tried to evade the rules. And yet, Teixeira argues, despite the failings and frustrations of Brazil’s and Portugal’s corporatist experiments, the ideas and institutions tested in the 1930s and 1940s constituted a new legal and technical tool kit for the rise of economic planning, shaping how governments regulate labor and market relations to the present day.

Book Tolstoy

Download or read book Tolstoy written by Rosamund Bartlett and published by HMH. This book was released on 2011-11-08 with total page 581 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This biography of the brilliant author of War and Peace and Anna Karenina “should become the first resort for everyone drawn to its titanic subject” (Booklist, starred review). In November 1910, Count Lev Tolstoy died at a remote Russian railway station. At the time of his death, he was the most famous man in Russia, more revered than the tsar, with a growing international following. Born into an aristocratic family, Tolstoy spent his existence rebelling against not only conventional ideas about literature and art but also traditional education, family life, organized religion, and the state. In “an epic biography that does justice to an epic figure,” Rosamund Bartlett draws extensively on key Russian sources, including fascinating material that has only become available since the collapse of the Soviet Union (Library Journal, starred review). She sheds light on Tolstoy’s remarkable journey from callow youth to writer to prophet; discusses his troubled relationship with his wife, Sonya; and vividly evokes the Russian landscapes Tolstoy so loved and the turbulent times in which he lived.

Book Professional Historians in Public

Download or read book Professional Historians in Public written by Berber Bevernage and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2023-07-24 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The past decades public interest in history is booming. This creates new opportunities but also challenges for professional historians. This book asks how historians deal with changing public demands for history and how these affect their professional practices, values and identities. The volume offers a great variety of detailed studies of cases where historians have applied their expertise outside the academic sphere. With contributions focusing on Latin America, Africa, Asia, the Pacific and Europe the book has a broad geographical scope. Subdivided in five sections, the book starts with a critical look back on some historians who broke with mainstream academic positions by combining their professional activities with an explicit political partisanship or social engagement. The second section focusses on the challenges historians are confronted with when entering the court room or more generally exposing their expertise to legal frameworks. The third section focuses on the effects of policy driven demands as well as direct political interventions and regulations on the historical profession. A fourth section looks at the challenges and opportunities related to the rise of new digital media. Finally several authors offer their view on normative standards that may help to better respond to new demands and to define role models for publicly engaged historians. This book aims at historians and other academics interested in public uses of history.

Book In the Penal Colony

    Book Details:
  • Author : Franz Kafka
  • Publisher : Sheba Blake Publishing
  • Release : 2017-04-19
  • ISBN : 3961893489
  • Pages : 37 pages

Download or read book In the Penal Colony written by Franz Kafka and published by Sheba Blake Publishing. This book was released on 2017-04-19 with total page 37 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the Penal Colony is a short story by Franz Kafka written in German in October 1914, revised in November 1918, and first published in October 1919. The story is set in an unnamed penal colony. Internal clues and the setting on an island suggest Octave Mirbeau's The Torture Garden as an influence. As in some of Kafka's other writings, the narrator in this story seems detached from, or perhaps numbed by, events that one would normally expect to be registered with horror. "In the Penal Colony" describes the last use of an elaborate torture and execution device that carves the sentence of the condemned prisoner on his skin before letting him die, all in the course of twelve hours. As the plot unfolds, the reader learns more and more about the machine, including its origin and original justification. The story focuses on the Explorer, who is encountering the brutal machine for the first time. Everything about the machine and its purpose is told to him by the Officer. The Soldier and the Condemned (who is unaware that he has been sentenced to die) placidly watch from nearby. The Officer tells of the religious epiphany the executed experience in their last six hours in the machine. Eventually, it becomes clear that the use of the machine and its associated process of justice – the accused is always instantly found guilty, and the law he has broken is inscribed on his body as he slowly dies over a period of 12 hours – has fallen out of favor with the current Commandant. The Officer is nostalgic regarding the torture machine and the values that were initially associated with it. As the last proponent of the machine, he strongly believes in its form of justice and the infallibility of the previous Commandant, who designed and built the device. In fact, the Officer carries its blueprints with him and is the only person who can properly decipher them; no one else is allowed to handle these documents.

Download or read book Great Granny Webster written by Caroline Blackwood and published by New York Review of Books. This book was released on 2012-04-18 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shortlisted for the Booker Prize The real-life Guinness heiress offers an inside look at the lives of eccentric aristocrats in this “masterful . . . macabre fairy-tale and blackly humorous family portrait” (Literary Hub). This macabre, mordantly funny, partly auto-biographical novel reveals the gothic craziness behind the scenes in the great houses of the aristocracy, as witnessed through the unsparing eyes of an orphaned teenage girl. Great Granny Webster herself is a fabulous monster, the chilliest of matriarchs, presiding with steely self-regard over a landscape of ruined lives. Great Granny Webster is Caroline Blackwood’s masterpiece. Heiress to the Guinness fortune, Blackwood was celebrated as a great beauty and dazzling raconteur long before she made her name as a strikingly original writer.
