Getting to know Brazilian Justice (2015)
Full democratic exercise is only possible through an understanding of rights and duties on the part of ordinary citizens. However, the complexity of the structure of Brazilian justice sometimes makes it difficult for those without legal training to access it. This book aims to bring citizens closer to the State, presenting, in a clear and didactic way, in accessible language, the functioning of the various legal bodies in the country. Based on extensive research involving judges, lawyers, and attorneys, the book is the first in a series dedicated to Brazilian institutions. << LEARN MORE >>
