Neighborhood social environment at an open streets initiative
Sunday Streets is an Open Streets initiative where local communities temporarily close streets to traffic, creating car-free space for recreation. This study used a survey of open- and close-ended questions to examine the reciprocal relationship between Sunday Streets and the communities and neighborhoods it serves. Findings suggest Sunday Streets provides participants with a safe (97.2%), vibrant environment (79.4%) where residents can decrease …
Frontiers created by ‘the Others’
This paper highlights the colonized perspective, and aims to reflect on the consequences of a predominant perspective of land control and use for Amazonian indigenous people. The demarcation of indigenous territories has been presented by external public actors, the ‘Others’ to explicitly support indigenous people defend their territories.

Following the Civil War (1861–65) American interest in spreading…

As historian June Hahner observes in her 1990 book Emancipating the Female Sex: The Struggle for Women's Rights in Brazil, 1850–1940, ‘Although women have always comprised an essential element in the evolution of Brazil, their activities have received scant scholarly attention’. Major journals such as Women's History and the International Journal of Women's Studies seldom contain anything having to do with the experiences, much less the achieveme…
Cuidar Muito em Educar as Crianças Segundo a Natureza’! Portuguese Contributions to Eighteenth- and Early Nineteenth-Century Health, Exercise and Educational Reform
The importance of exercise and physical education in relation to the health and development of children and youth has been of recurring interest. During the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries a remarkable number of educators, physicians, philosophers, and even an occasional political leader addressed the topic and/or proposed means by which these would be incorporated into educational programs and reforms. Although the work of Rousseau, Gu…
