Entre miradas y silencios. Metodologías de investigación en la historia indígena contemporánea
La historia indígena contemporánea no es un objeto de estudio inalterable, traslúcido, inmediatamente evidente. Para entender y visibilizar sus modulaciones temporales y regionales es indispensable tomar en cuenta, por un lado, la diversidad de los grupos indígenas, y al mismo tiempo, por el otro, la propia variabilidad de las realidades más amplias con las cuales estas sociedades se definen e interactúan. Confiando en que en esta tarea todavía queda camino por recorrer, este libro reúne una serie de reflexiones historiográficas sobre el uso de las fuentes orales y escritas, los procesos de territorialización y estatización, las transformaciones de las relaciones interétnicas, elementos indispensables a la hora de proponer una lectura realmente interdisciplinaria. Los estudios compilados en este volumen permiten redireccionar la mirada para construir nuevas claves interpretativas en este campo todavía incierto del conocimiento. Abren, así, la posibilidad de buscar acuerdos inexplorados en torno de los recortes temáticos, los conceptos y las metodologías necesarias para comprender en toda su dimensión la historia indígena contemporánea de América Latina.
Primer concurso de ensayo fray Roger Bacon
"Este libro [...] es el bautismo de un sueño que comenzó con Roger Bacon encerrado en su celda y que continúa en la volátil pluma de todos los ensayistas aquí convocados. El Primer concurso de ensayo fray Roger Bacon le rinde un homenaje a la figura de quien fue un buscador abismal. El Doctor mirabilis, como se le suele llamar en los pasillos teológicos, nació muchos años antes de que el gran Michel de Montaigne dijese: 'Yo mismo soy la materia de mi libro', en esos Essais que inaugurarían en la literatura una nueva forma de expresión. Sin embargo, ya en él estaba la semilla de lo que Montaigne haría llegar hasta ensayistas contemporáneos como los que se reúnen aquí: la noció...
Police Writing and Radical Modernisation in the Porfiriato and the Conservative Republic (1870s-1910s)
This book explores the process of modernisation during the Porfiriato and the Conservative republic from the perspective of one of its most erratic agents: the urban police. Taking a pragmalinguistic approach, this book examines police bureaucratic, journalistic, and literary writing practices that flourished in the wake of police professionalisation and in response to the demands of state expansion, urban order, and cultural disciplining. It outlines the precarious state of an institution that had to redefine itself in the face of change, as well as policemen’s attempts to enforce and imagine different modes of doing modern estate, society, and culture. Integrating classical sociological ...

Handbook of Research on the Conservation and Restoration of Tropical Dry Forests
Tropical dry forests are the most exploited and endangered ecosystems in the world. A combination of climatic and human factors often reduce these forests to patches of dry scrubs or savannas. Because these ecosystems experience a more arduous and less anticipated environment, they are more prone to environmental stress as plant communities are developed. Therefore, urgent research is necessary to understand both the detrimental issues and problem-solving approaches to conserving these important forests. The Handbook of Research on the Conservation and Restoration of Tropical Dry Forests is a pivotal reference source that combines theory and practice on the current trends and issues in this ...
Presence of Mind
This excellent book is translated from the original Arabic book by Sheikh Taqiuddin An Nabahani, an Islamic jurist, 'alim, writer and the founder of Hizb ut-Tahrir - the largest Islamic global political party under a single leadership. Intelligence, Thinking, the reality of thinking and the method to think have been subjects of great inquiry and debate among scholars and philosophers globally. However, various academicians have proposed different inconclusive theories, without anything concrete that clearly defines the Human mind, its reality and how it thinks. This book is a must read for all those people who wish to build a clear and decisive way of thinking. It is a must read for those who want to understand how people think and how to influence people and convince them about their viewpoint. It is a subject rarely written or spoken about and Nabahani has gone a far way in trying to explain the subject to the readers.
International Arbitration and the COVID-19 Revolution
International Arbitration and the COVID-19 Revolution Edited by Maxi Scherer, Niuscha Bassiri & Mohamed S. Abdel Wahab The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on all major economic sectors and industries has triggered profound and systemic changes in international arbitration. Moreover, the fact that entire proceedings are now being conducted remotely constitutes so significant a deviation from the norm as to warrant the designation ‘revolution’. This timely book is the first to describe and analyse how the COVID-19 crisis has redefined arbitral practice, with critical appraisal from well-known practitioners of the pandemic’s effects on substantive and procedural aspects from the commencem...
Poverty and Shared Prosperity 2018
The World Bank Group has two overarching goals: End extreme poverty by 2030 and promote shared prosperity by boosting the incomes of the bottom 40 percent of the population in each economy. As this year’s Poverty and Shared Prosperity report documents, the world continues to make progress toward these goals. In 2015, approximately one-tenth of the world’s population lived in extreme poverty, and the incomes of the bottom 40 percent rose in 77 percent of economies studied. But success cannot be taken for granted. Poverty remains high in Sub- Saharan Africa, as well as in fragile and conflict-affected states. At the same time, most of the world’s poor now live in middle-income countries,...
