TL;DR: In this paper, content analysis was applied to 7,857 articles published in 35 journals from six South American countries from 2006 to 2014 in order to discover what the predominant theories, methods and research areas in this field are, how scholars tend to combine them in their research designs, and what the profiles of regional journals are, regarding their epistemological, methodological and subject preferences.

TL;DR: In this article, the main vectors and actors that influence renewable energy policy adoption and identify differences between developed and developing countries are analyzed by a mixed method analysis: quali and quantitatively.

TL;DR: The authors reviewed Brazil's pursuit for international insertion by: discussing its search for new partners; presenting an overview of the historical, cultural, and political features that render it the most Western of the emerging nations; and analyzing its participation in the management of two major international crises, the Honduran constitutional crisis and the Iranian nuclear crisis.

TL;DR: In this article, a sample of 255 Brazilian males from Rio Grande do Sul (RS), the Brazilian southernmost state, was typed for 17 Y-STR loci (DYS19, DYS389I, DDYS389II, DDY-19, YGATA_H4.1 and DYS385ab) and a total of 247 haplotypes were identified, of which 239 were unique and eight were found in two individuals each.

TL;DR: Pairwise haplotype distances showed that the RS population is not significantly different from Brazil, Rio de Janeiro, and Argentina, is different from São Paulo, Italy, and North Portugal, and is very distant from Spain, the Amazon region, Germany, and South Amerindians.
