TL;DR: The modelos cappellettiano and dworkiniano, partindo-se da relacao entre o modelo de jurisdicação e de magistrado, buscar-se a chegar a novo modelo of jurisdicião e, sobremodo, de juiz, which deve estar blindada contra todo o tipo de decisionismos e arbitrariedades judiciais as mentioned in this paper.
Abstract: Com a chegada do Estado Social e a necessidade da implementacao de varios direitos antes negligenciados pelo Estado, o judiciario ve-se desafiado a participar de tal processo de implementacao da chamada questao social. No entanto, quando se adentra o paradigma Estado Democratico de Direito, esta situacao desafiadora aumenta em complexidade e, em quantidade. Desta forma, exige-se um novo perfil de jurisdicao e de magistrado. Assim sendo, partindo-se da relacao entre os modelos cappellettiano e dworkiniano, buscar-se-a chegar a um novo modelo de jurisdicao e, sobremodo, de juiz. Jurisdicao esta, que deve estar blindada contra todo o tipo de decisionismos e arbitrariedades judiciais. Diante disso, o juiz, embora tenha discricionariedade – nao no sentido forte –, deve ser responsavel social e constitucionalmente e, capaz de concretizar e garantir os direitos oriundos do novo paradigma juridico-estatal, bem como do novo constitucionalismo que o forjou.

TL;DR: In this paper, a tematica da protecao de dados pessoais no atual contexto brasileiro, in which a privacidade como a direito fundamental a ser protegido, entretanto, no que se refere aos dado pessois inseridos na Internet, o pais ainda apresenta-se pautado na autorregulacao, pois no presente ha um Anteprojeto de Lei for tanto.
Abstract: Este artigo expoe a tematica da protecao de dados pessoais no atual contexto brasileiro, que em sua Constituicao preve a privacidade como direito fundamental a ser protegido, entretanto, no que se refere aos dados pessoais inseridos na Internet, o pais ainda apresenta-se pautado na autorregulacao, pois no presente ha um Anteprojeto de Lei para tanto. Em decorrencia dessa situacao da sociedade informacional brasileira, que se discute o nivel de protecao do internauta, que oscila entre autorregulacao – empresas – e perspectiva de regulacao – Lei. Utilizando-se dos metodos dialetico e comparativo, observaram-se ambos os contextos referidos, quanto a consideracao da informacao do internauta, ora tratada como insumo do lucrativo mercado digital, ora como elementar do direito fundamental a privacidade, devendo, em ambos os casos, ser protegido.

TL;DR: A livro de Leonardo Boff, lancado poucos meses antes da Conferencia das Nacoes Unidas sobre Meio Ambiente, a Rio+20, que aconteceu em 2012, traz uma discussao sobre o uso indevido do term "sustainabilidade" pelos governos, empresas, pela diplomacia e pelos meios de comunicacao as discussed by the authors.
Abstract: Em tres paginas, esta resenha sintetiza o livro de Leonardo Boff, lancado poucos meses antes da Conferencia das Nacoes Unidas sobre Meio Ambiente, a Rio+20, que aconteceu em 2012. A obra traz uma discussao sobre o uso indevido do termo pelos governos, pelas empresas, pela diplomacia e pelos meios de comunicacao. Segundo este livro, a sustentabilidade e questao de vida ou morte pois somente com ela o futuro da especie humana no Planeta Terra estara assegurado. Portanto, faz-se necessario que se distinga verdadeiramente o que e e o que nao e sustentabilidade.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined how and with what effects the Movement of People Threatened by Dams (MOAB) in the Ribeira Valley, Brazil, works at various scales simultaneously.
Abstract: This contribution examines how and with what effects the Movement of People Threatened by Dams (MOAB) in the Ribeira Valley, Brazil, works at various scales simultaneously. It is argued that MOAB was kicked off by mobilising Afro-descendants around livelihood issues, and that one of the first anti-dam strategies was to claim quilombola recognition and land rights at the state level. MOAB soon expanded its network and broadened its agenda to include procedural justice, targeting federal and international agencies for recourse. The paper concludes that MOAB has successfully used different scales for framing, mobilisation and action, which has contributed to the dam project being put on hold for almost three decades.

TL;DR: The knowledge and practices of local residents in Sao Francisco do Conde, Bahia regarding the use of medicinal and mystical plants are investigated with the aim of proposing strategies for the incorporation of phytotherapies into the local Unified Health System through local Basic Health Clinics.
Abstract: We investigated the knowledge and practices of local residents in Sao Francisco do Conde, Bahia, regarding the use of medicinal and mystical plants with the aim of proposing strategies for the incorporation of phytotherapies into the local Unified Health System through local Basic Health Clinics. This municipality was founded during the early colonization of Brazil, introducing the monoculture of sugarcane and slave labor to the region, resulting in a currently largely Afro-Brazilian population. Key informants and local specialists were interviewed and workshops were undertaken at the Basic Health Clinics to collect data and information. The interviewees made 254 references to 126 plant species distributed among 107 genera and 50 families. Among the species cited with medicinal or mystical uses, 51.6% were considered autochtonous, and 42.8% were cited in at least one document of the Brazilian Health Ministry; of these, 11.1% were mentioned in four to eight documents, indicating potential for introduction to the local Unified Health System. The valorization of local knowledge and practices concerning the use of medicinal plants represents an important approach to public health efforts.

TL;DR: The authors assesses the impacts of occupation and resource use by beiradeiros (forest peasants) on the forests of a strictly designated nature reserve in the Iriri River basin (Brazilian Amazon).
Abstract: Legislation governing strict-protection nature reserves in Brazil in principle precludes human habitation, but virtually all Amazon reserves are nonetheless inhabited. Historical ecology research reported herein assesses the impacts of occupation and resource use by beiradeiros (forest peasants) on the forests of a strictly designated nature reserve in the Iriri River basin (Brazilian Amazon). The hypothesis is that traditional beiradeiros activities are congruent with the aims of conservation of the reserve because their impacts are either neutral or enhance diversity of forest landscapes and biota. We designed the methodology underlying data collection to integrate forest inventory with archaeological techniques in two contrasting forest types (terra firme and seasonally inundated forest), faunal surveys, freelisting of tree terms by beiradeiros, and participant observation, in order to determine biological diversity indices, forest age and the parameters of traditional knowledge that encode such diversity in local vocabulary. Our research results lead us to reject the premise that traditional peasant activities lead to ecological degradation or impoverishment, and suggest that the rationale underpinning strictly protected nature reserves should be re-examined.
