A cultura do litígio e a hiperjudicialização dos conflitos possuem uma relação intrínseca com o modelo de justiça contenciosa, constatável no Brasil atualmente. Com isso, há uma sobrecarga no sistema de justiça, que resulta em morosidade na resolução das disputas e comprometimento do sentimento de efetividade no sistema judicial pelas partes envolvidas. Dados do Conselho Nacional de Justiça apontam no Relatório Justiça em Números publicado no ano de 2023 um total de 81,4 milhões de process...

One of the only ethnographic studies of Dalit women, this book gives a rich account of individual Dalit women’s lives and documents a rise in patriarchy in the community. The author argues that as Dalits’ economic and political position improves, ‘honour’ becomes crucial to social status. One of the ways Dalits accrue honour is by altering patterns of women’s work, education and marriage, and by adopting dominant-caste gender practices. But Dalits are not simply becoming like upper castes;...

She also found therein that men have died from love, and women have languished in torments when it was unrequited.Even though she was filled with apprehension as she read, she did not wish to eschew love, but was glad she was suffering from ...

But the term also refers to the diffuse spheres of crime, business, and politics operating within a shadow world that is popularly referred to as the rule of the mafia, or "Mafia Raj."Through intimate stories of the lives of powerful and aspiring bosses i...
