El trabajo, como fuente de riqueza, desarrollo, bienestar social y derecho fundamental, debe estar en primera línea frente a cualquier modificación o adaptación del ordenamiento jurídico de un país. De ahí que, con un enfoque en el derecho laboral, este libro aborde los efectos y los cambios que generó, y sigue generando, la pandemia de covid-19 en Colombia, así como la protección social de nuestros ciudadanos y el fortalecimiento del diálogo social, la negociación colectiva y las instituciones y mecanismos de las relaciones laborales en materia colectiva. Dado lo anterior, cada uno de los capítulos que componen esta obra presentan un problema jurídico específico, con un estilo de investigación y una metodología propia, que, con estadísticas, cifras, derecho comparado y normas administrativas o legales, ofrecen análisis y propuestas diversas, que podrán ser el inicio de muchas reflexiones, incluso en el periodo pospandémico.
This book tells the story of the Peace Community of San José de Apartadó, an emblematic grassroots social movement of peasant farmers, who unusually declared themselves ‘neutral’ to Colombia’s internal armed conflict, in the north-west region of Urabá. It reveals two core narratives in the Community’s collective identity, which Burnyeat calls the ‘radical’ and the ‘organic’ narratives. These refer to the historically-constituted interpretative frameworks according to which they perceive respectively the Colombian state, and their relationship with their natural and social environments. Together, these two narratives form an ‘Alternative Community’ collective identity, ...
Interdisciplinary work between anthropology and history has taken diverse expressions. Yet it has developed with more coherence since the 1980s. Through a critical and contemporary engagement with this wave of scholarship, this challenges readers to think of work at the crossroads of anthropology and history as transdisciplinary and anthrohistorical, moving beyond a partial integration of the disciplines as it critically evaluates their assumptions and trajectories.

Blood Stem Cell Transplantation conveys the excitement that accompanies the newest developments in hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Some of the applications that stand to impact this field most significantly are based on recent advances in the biological sciences, as demonstrated by the chapters on gene therapy, on the detection of minimal residual disease using molecular techniques, and on the use of radioimmunoconjugates targeting lymphoma and leukemia-associated antigens. Others are the results of clinical observations - e.g., the association between graft-versus-host- disease (GVHD) and durable remissions that have led to creative clinical experiments such as donor leukocyte infu...
Something Fantastic is the multifaceted manifesto of three young architects - Julian Schubert, Elena Schütz and Leonard Streich. It is also the name of their new Berlin-based studio; both book and studio derive from a diploma thesis at the University of the Arts, Berlin. Something Fantastic calls for increased consciousness in architectural thought and action, particularly in relation to the environment, energy and contemporary politics. Excerpts from thinkers and theorists - from Thomas Hobbes to Ludwig Mies van der Rohe - and interviews, including with Markus Miessen and Werner Sobek, inform a publication determined to call for change, and offer hope for the future.
