O podre neoliberalismo que dominou a Lei Rouanet. O mundo explode em conflitos urbanos, ataques com apedrejamentos a instituições financeiras exigindo transformações profundas nas relações entre capital e trabalho. Investidores e grandes corporações financeiras mergulharam num ensandecido financismo e levaram o planeta à banca rota, a uma crise que ainda não se sabe a exata extensão e, muito menos, os estragos que ela proporcionará à população global. O financismo repousa em um paradoxo lógico emanado dos pressupostos básicos da livre-iniciativa. O que, na realidade se revela é a manipulação de agências de avaliações de risco de investimento e, agora, em caixas de pesadas instituições de investimentos vazias e quebra generalizada da confiança, enfim, um quadro de calamidade e perplexidade no mundo.

No entanto, a história mostra que, através de desequilíbrios, são criadas as condições para o acúmulo de capital em mãos de grupos mais dinâmicos – que passam a comandar o ciclo seguinte que é hoje anunciado como o terceiro setor. Artigos. Hito Steyerl: The language of things. Who does the lamp communicate with? The mountain? The fox? Walter Benjamin What if things could speak? What would they tell us? Or are they speaking already andwe just don’t hear them? And who is going to translate them? Ask Walter Benjamin. But, you may ask: what is the point of this eccentric plot? But Benjamin’s idea of translation – at least in this text – boldly ignores this obvious and perhaps banal feature of translation. Since Benjamin was perfectly aware of the romantic translation theories, which focussed on concepts like the national spirit, his feigned ignorance has to be seen as more then a bold political statement.

Instead of a politics of the original content – like the nation state, the culture, the Volksgeist or national language – Benjamin argues for a politics of form. Potestas and Potentia But what exactly are the political processes involved in this type of translation? While this may still sound completely unpractical for anybody, the contrary is the case.

Histórico - Comtudo. Our Mission. To really understand the world, we need to hear from different people with different perspectives. Unfortunately, though, conventional media sources in the West often fail to provide an array of diverse viewpoints. Women, minorities, and other marginalized groups in particular continue to be underrepresented in bylines across the industry. In the process, those seeking credible, reliable, quality information are being short-changed. Muftah is dedicated to transforming this situation by producing original content from diverse individuals about global events. In recent years, no other part of the world has been as negatively affected by the lack of diversity in Western journalism as the Middle East and North Africa (MENA). Wars have been encouraged and prejudices have been inflamed thanks, in part, to mainstream media outlets that have failed to include diverse voices and opinions.

But, it is not just coverage of the Middle East and North Africa that often lacks diverse perspectives. Sobre as Licenças. Our public copyright licenses incorporate a unique and innovative “three-layer” design. Each license begins as a traditional legal tool, in the kind of language and text formats that most lawyers know and love. We call this the Legal Code layer of each license. But since most creators, educators, and scientists are not in fact lawyers, we also make the licenses available in a format that normal people can read — the Commons Deed (also known as the “human readable” version of the license).

The Commons Deed is a handy reference for licensors and licensees, summarizing and expressing some of the most important terms and conditions. Think of the Commons Deed as a user-friendly interface to the Legal Code beneath, although the Deed itself is not a license, and its contents are not part of the Legal Code itself. Searching for open content is an important function enabled by our approach. “Decretem nossa extinção e nos enterrem aqui” #CAUSABRASIL.
