Este libro aborda el sector público desde las políticas públicas, la nueva gestión pública, la ciencia de la administración pública y la gobernanza. El libro propone una reforma y mejora del ámbito público, denunciando cómo el sector privado ha tenido la intención de apropiárselo para convertirlo en un gran negocio mediante la privatización de los servicios públicos. Además, señala cómo la falta de innovación y de generación de herramientas al servicio de los gobernantes, del administrador y del ciudadano, es una tarea pendiente en estos tiempos de crisis mundial, en la cual el Estado ahora es la organización social donde se condensan las diferentes relaciones de fuerza, bajo la supervisión y control ciudadano.
The print edition is available as a set of two volumes (9789004218635).

Enforced disappearance is one of the most serious human rights violations. It constitutes an autonomous offence and a crime under international law on account of its multiple and continuing character. It is not a phenomenon of the past, nor is it geographically limited to Latin America: such scourge is widespread today and on the increase in other continents. For more than twenty-five years, relatives of disappeared people worldwide have insisted on the pressing need for an international legally binding instrument against enforced disappearances. 2006 is the year of the adoption of the International Convention on the Protection of All Persons from Enforced Disappearances, which represents the result of several legislative and jurisprudential developments that are duly analyzed in this book. The Convention has been opened for signature in February 2007.

Few would list Mexico as an ally of the US during the Second World War. Sadly, Mexico s aid to the US has been largely ignored by historians and is mostly absent from American history books. When Mexican aviators had the opportunity to show their courage in battle, they did so with valour. General Douglas MacArthur commended the pilots and 150 support personnel. The thirty-one pilots of Mexican Expeditionary Force 201st Fighter Squadron flew missions supporting troops in the Philippines and sorties over Formosa. The Aztec Eagles helped the Allies defeat Japan, end the isolationism of Mexico and paved the way for important agreements between the United States and Mexico. They helped modernise the Mexican Air Force and demonstrated that Mexico could mount a successful expeditionary force. Significant as these achievements were, perhaps the unit s most important legacy is that the Aztec Eagles fought for dignity, creating pride throughout their homeland. That pride endures and is evident today as the story of the Aztec Eagles can be heard across the nation.
