Latin American Unification
This book investigates efforts to promote the political and economic unification of Latin America. Every generation in the region has known some effort toward these goals. There were four major stages. The first endeavors were undertaken by diplomats, the second by idealists, the third by technocrats and the fourth stage is now dominated by pro-unification political leaders. Efforts toward integration promote the economies and political stability of these countries—Latin Americans were among the first of the old “third world” people to advance such programs. The political unification of Latin America has been stymied by the political class but this trend is currently being reversed with the Common Market of the South (MERCOSUR). The recent accession of Venezuela after a grueling political-ideological struggle (examined in the book) has spurred other countries to seek full membership in the group. It is now the third largest trade bloc in the world and is continuing to grow. Instructors considering this book for use in a course may request an examination copy here.
Los mercados de gas y su regulación en Iberoamérica
Tanto en las actuales circunstancias de los sistemas energéticos como en el futuro, el gas natural tiene una importancia decisiva, en paises productores y en aquellos paises que no tienen gas o que necesitan mayor diversificación gasista. En el caso de La-tinoamérica parece conveniente que los paises saquen toda el rendimiento a sus reservas de gas natural. La política energética descansa sobre tres pilares: seguridad del suministro, eficiencia económica y sustentabilidad. Y el gas natural satisface, en mayor o menor grado, esas tres exigencias. En este contexto, este libro trata de analizar el equilibrio existente entre la liberalización y el mercado, por un lado, y la regulación y la intervención gubema-mental, por otro, para la consecución de los objetivos de política energéticas en su proyección sobre el gas natural. El libro aborda la regulación de los mercados de gas en Argentina, Bolivia, Brasil, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, México, Paraguay, Perú, Uruguay y Venezuela, y dada la importando de la integración de los mercados, se examina el modelo sopapeo y las procesos de in-tegración en Latinoamérica.

This new and updated reference, the ABA Guide to Foreign Law Firms, Fifth Edition, is designed to help both U.S. and non U.S. lawyers in identifying qualified legal counsel in the many foreign jurisdictions with which such lawyers are likely to come into contact, particularly those in countries emerging as significant factors in international commercial transactions.
Enforcing Privacy
This book is about enforcing privacy and data protection. It demonstrates different approaches – regulatory, legal and technological – to enforcing privacy. If regulators do not enforce laws or regulations or codes or do not have the resources, political support or wherewithal to enforce them, they effectively eviscerate and make meaningless such laws or regulations or codes, no matter how laudable or well-intentioned. In some cases, however, the mere existence of such laws or regulations, combined with a credible threat to invoke them, is sufficient for regulatory purposes. But the threat has to be credible. As some of the authors in this book make clear – it is a theme that runs thro...
La Contratación Pública en América Latina
La contratación pública en América Latina, no obstante su indiscutible relevancia, ha escapado, como objeto de análisis, a la creciente producción de investigaciones que buscan identificar, con una perspectiva comparada, las distinciones y las similitudes de cada ordenamiento jurídico de la región. Con el apoyo de la Universidad Externado de Colombia y de la Fondation pour le Droit Continental, La contratación pública en América Latina entra a colmar este vacío mediante la compilación de trece informes nacionales que contienen la respuesta a un cuestionario común por parte de estudiosos de Argentina, Bolivia, Brasil, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Panamá, Perú, República Dominicana, Uruguay y Venezuela. A estos informes nacionales se suma un capítulo con perspectiva teórico-comparada que aborda algunos aspectos metodológicos de la investigación (1), un capítulo que captura varias de las tendencias generales de la contratación pública en América Latina (II) y un Apéndice relativo a la actualidad europea en materia de contratación pública.
