This book offers an application of the transnational model of interpretation of peace into the area of legal studies. By building on the idea that there are various - and many times contradictory - interpretations of peace in history and culture, this book examines how these many forms of peace interplay in legal spheres, shaping legal discourses and practices - concretely those concerning the exercise of rights. By arguing that different perspectives on peace influence different argumentations of rights, the book challenges some of the political and legal discourses framed within the war against terror since 2001 and the resulting militarization of the Colombian society and its rights discourses.

This book covers the heterogeneity of Chilean literary production from the times of the Spanish conquest to the present. It shifts critical focus from national identity and issues to a more multifaceted transnational, hemispheric, and global approach. Its emphasis is on the paradigm transition from the purportedly homogeneous to the heterogeneous.
Todas as linguas que existen no mundo posúen unha característica fundamental, cal é o feito de estaren a mudar constantemente: a adscrición social, o contexto, o espazo, a psicoloxía de cada falante, o tempo, o xénero etc. son factores que determinan diferentes tipoloxías de variacionismo lingüístico. O galego, que tamén coñece eses condicionantes de variación, tiña de contar cunha obra en que fosen estudados, centrándose na situación particular do noso idioma e nomeadamente na dimensión xeográfica. Por este motivo, Laiovento comprácese en dar a lume Lingua galega e variación dialectal, de Xosé Manuel Sánchez Rei, un estudo que cobre unha notábel lacuna ao non haber unha obra teórica destas características pensada para o galego.
