Book Description
Not everybody can find a meaning for life in the middle of a moment of unimaginable pain. But Roseli Tardelli did. In the death of her HIV-infected brother, Sérgio, she found a cause worth fighting for. But a glance at Agência AIDS suffices to see all the work that has been done to bring more rights of the HIV-infected and promote information about AIDS to the population. The path is tortuous, the hurdles are enormous and countless, but Roseli and her team of collaborators manage to channel such powerful energy that barriers are crossed nearly every day. With this publication, Senac São Paulo presents more than a story about a fight, it also brings up relevant discussions and information – through the glossary and the timeline – for the reader to reflect upon the journey of the disease in Brazil and in the world and, at the same time, it pays tribute to the people who fight for a more humane treatment of those infected with HIV.

Contemporary Carioca
Author: Frederick Moehn
Publisher: Duke University Press
ISBN: 0822351552
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 318
Book Description
The ethnomusicologist Frederick Moehn introduces a generation of Rio-based musicians who build on the música popular brasileira (MPB) of previous decades, but who have yet to receive scholarly attention. This generation, the "children of the dictatorship," reinvigorated Brazilian genres such as samba and maracatu through juxtaposition with international influences, including rock, techno, and funk. Moehn offers vivid depictions of Rio musicians as they creatively combine and reconcile local realities with global trends and exigencies.

Greening Brazil
Author: Kathryn Hochstetler
Publisher: Duke University Press
ISBN: 0822390590
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 303
Book Description
Greening Brazil challenges the claim that environmentalism came to Brazil from abroad. Two political scientists, Kathryn Hochstetler and Margaret E. Keck, retell the story of environmentalism in Brazil from the inside out, analyzing the extensive efforts within the country to save its natural environment, and the interplay of those efforts with transnational environmentalism. The authors trace Brazil’s complex environmental politics as they have unfolded over time, from their mid-twentieth-century conservationist beginnings to the contemporary development of a distinctive socio-environmentalism meant to address ecological destruction and social injustice simultaneously. Hochstetler and Keck argue that explanations of Brazilian environmentalism—and environmentalism in the global South generally—must take into account the way that domestic political processes shape environmental reform efforts. The authors present a multilevel analysis encompassing institutions and individuals within the government—at national, state, and local levels—as well as the activists, interest groups, and nongovernmental organizations that operate outside formal political channels. They emphasize the importance of networks linking committed actors in the government bureaucracy with activists in civil society. Portraying a gradual process marked by periods of rapid advance, Hochstetler and Keck show how political opportunities have arisen from major political transformations such as the transition to democracy and from critical events, including the well-publicized murders of environmental activists in 1988 and 2004. Rather than view foreign governments and organizations as the instigators of environmental policy change in Brazil, the authors point to their importance at key moments as sources of leverage and support.
