El Centro de Estudios para el Desarrollo Humano Integral (Cedhin) de la Universidad de La Sabana viene estudiando los desafíos del desarrollo global y la necesidad de un compromiso universal con el futuro del planeta. En este caso, ha reunido expertos en distintas áreas para proponer proyectos sociales, políticos, económicos y culturales, orientados a mejorar el modo de vida de muchas personas. En medio de la pandemia de la covid-19, vimos conveniente aportar ideas para la nueva sociedad que estamos llamados a construir entre todos después de la compleja situación que afrontamos. De ahí la convocatoria a esta reflexión interdisciplinaria, resultado de las investigaciones de los profesores invitados desde diversas áreas geográficas y epistemológicas. Esperamos que este libro, fruto de un trabajo mancomunado como aporte a la regeneración que exige la pandemia de la covid-19, estimule el compromiso generoso y solidario para promover un verdadero desarrollo humano integral.

Women, Business and the Law 2021 is the seventh in a series of annual studies measuring the laws and regulations that affect women’s economic opportunity in 190 economies. The project presents eight indicators structured around women’s interactions with the law as they move through their lives and careers: Mobility, Workplace, Pay, Marriage, Parenthood, Entrepreneurship, Assets, and Pension. This year’s report updates all indicators as of October 1, 2020 and builds evidence of the links between legal gender equality and women’s economic inclusion. By examining the economic decisions women make throughout their working lives, as well as the pace of reform over the past 50 years, Women, Business and the Law 2021 makes an important contribution to research and policy discussions about the state of women’s economic empowerment. Prepared during a global pandemic that threatens progress toward gender equality, this edition also includes important findings on government responses to COVID-19 and pilot research related to childcare and women’s access to justice.
Roving vigilantes, fear-mongering politicians, hysterical pundits, and the looming shadow of a seven hundred-mile-long fence: the US–Mexican border is one of the most complex and dynamic areas on the planet today. Hyperborder provides the most nuanced portrait yet of this dynamic region. Author Fernando Romero presents a multidisciplinary perspective informed by interviews with numerous academics, researchers, and organizations. Provocatively designed in the style of other kinetic large-scale studies like Rem Koolhaas's Content and Bruce Mau’s Massive Change, Hyperborder is an exhaustively researched report from the front lines of the border debate.
