Los conceptos que se presentan en lo esencial, ajustados al tratamiento que les da la Nueva gramática de la lengua española, aprobada por las Academias en 2011, que ha servido como material básico de consulta dado su carácter razonado y la actualidad de su enfoque van generalmente acompañados de abundantes y oportunos comentarios y de múltiples ejemplos ilustrativos, de manera que la relativa densidad teórica y aun los puntos de vista que pudieran resultar novedosos se sientan equilibrados por la claridad expositiva que se ha perseguido, por la asequibilidad del lenguaje en su redacción y por la agilidad y dinamismo en el estilo.
In what follows can be found the doors to a house of words and stories. This house of words and stories is the Archive of New Mexico and the doors are each of the documents contained within it. Like any house, New Mexico's archive has a tale of its own origin and a complex history. Although its walls have changed many times, its doors and the encounters with those doors hold stories known and told and others not yet revealed. In the Archives, there are thousands of doors (4,481) that open to a time of kings and popes, of inquisition and revolution. "These archives," writes Ralph Emerson Twitchell, "are by far the most valuable and interesting of any in the Southwest." Many of these documents...
Transitions from authoritarian to democratic governments can provide ripe scenarios for the emergence of new, insurgent political actors and causes. During peaceful transitions, such movements may become influential political players and gain representation for previously neglected interests and sectors of the population. But for this to happen, insurgent social movements need opportunities for mobilization, success, and survival. This book looks at Mexico's Zapatista movement, and why the movement was able to mobilize sympathy and support for the indigenous agenda inside and outside of the country, yet failed to achieve their goals vis-à-vis the Mexican state.
Who shapes the European Union's policy towards Latin America? How has this EU policy modified individual member states' relations with the region? This book provides a comparative account of seven member states' bilateral links with Latin America since 1945, in the context of their EU membership and based on the concept of 'Europeanization'. It illustrates how and why the main architects of this EU policy have been Spain and Germany. In contrast, Poland, Sweden and Ireland, which had little previous interaction with Latin America, have developed their current relations with that region virtually as a result of their EU membership. The United Kingdom and France lie in the middle: they have been influential in certain policy-areas and key periods in history, while they have adapted to what is done at the EU level in others. Practitioners, established academic experts as well emerging scholars in the field bring to be bear a novel combination of pioneering research and cutting edge conceptual analysis on this important but neglected area of the EU's foreign relations.
This is the first text to focus on the comparative value of species, examining the relative consequences of individual extinctions. It attempts to provide ecologically based guidance to conservationists struggling with limited resources and compelled to set priorities for their work.
The book Autoimmune Rheumatic Disease (second edition) is a new fully revised edition of the award winning title. It fills the gap in the literature in that no other book bridges the divide between the clinical characterisation and treatment of autoimmune rheumatic diseases on the one hand and an understanding of laboratory-based research and disease pathogenesis on the other. This second edition is especially important because it describes and explains the advances in molecular biological techniques that have brought about major changes in understanding and also covers the new therapies which have been developed for many autoimmune rheumatic diseases.
Explores how people of faith and goodwill might mark the midwinter season and the Christmas festival with integrity and simplicity.
The seventh in a series of annual reports investigating the regulations that enhance business activity and those that constrain it, 'Doing Business' presents quantitative indicators on business regulations and the protection of property rights that can be compared across 183 economies--from Afghanistan to Zimbabwe--and over time. Regulations affecting 10 stages of a business's life are measured: starting a business, dealing with construction permits, employing workers, registering property, getting credit, protecting investors, paying taxes, trading across borders, enforcing contracts and closing a business. Data in 'Doing Business 2010' are current as of June 1, 2009. The indicators are used to analyze economic outcomes and identify what reforms have worked, where and why.
