El hecho de que la industria de la construcción en la ciudad de Pasto y, en general, en el departamento de Nariño, haya sido considerada poco estructurada en todos sus eslabones, ha llevado a que sea un sector con algunas desventajas, sobre todo en las Pequeñas y Medianas Empresas (PYME), siendo estas organizaciones, parte importante y representativa de la economía regional, con gran potencial dinamizador desde la generación de empleo y el crecimiento industrial. El libro relata la industria de la construcción de vivienda y da una mirada desde la administración y la contaduría; recoge las opiniones de los constructores y gerentes de las PYME de construcción en la ciudad de Pasto, específicamente sobre aspectos del proceso administrativo y de la dinámica de las áreas funcionales de una organización, incluyendo actividades de mercadeo, tecnología e innovación, además de dar una visión general de la situación financiera de las empresas y el retorno de las inversiones a sus accionistas; por último, recopila aspectos tributarios de índole nacional y local. Por lo tanto, es un tema de interés para conocer la dinámica de este sector.

Drug Trafficking, Corruption and States is cutting edge research. Garay Salamanca and Salcedo-Albarán, along with their contributing authors help document the transition from economic to political imperatives within transnational drug cartels. The break from the Zetas by La Familia Michoacana is one example contained in their empirical survey. Social Network Analysis is their tool for illuminating the varying dynamics of cartel-state inter-penetration and reconfiguration. In doing so they clearly discern between State Capture (StC) and Co-opted State Reconfiguration (CStR). As the drug wars and criminal insurgencies rage in the Americas and beyond, this seminal framework will facilitate efforts by scholars, law enforcement officials, intelligence analysts and policymakers to understand shifts in sovereignty, and to illuminate the mechanisms of transnational illicit networks and their interaction with the state.

The city is more than demography and architecture, it is a state of mind. Various groups, scenes and subcultures, widely known as "man in the street", shape and are shaped by urban space and its history according to imaginations, nightmares and dreams. Urban anthropologists get immersed in this closely knit fabric of urban culture and conduct field research with all their senses. The reader provides a compact introduction into urban anthropology, which has become the key discipline in exploring cities and city live as sites of encounter, conflict and sensation. It introduces the most influential writers in the field as well as young and upcoming field researchers.With essays by PeterJackson, LesBack, RuthBehar, MoritzEge, RolfLindner, Mirko Zardini, Margarethe Kusenbach, Loic Wacquant.
