Laicidad y libertad religiosa del servidor público: expresión de restricciones reforzadas
Esta obra analiza si la condición de servidor público genera mayores limitaciones al ejercicio de la libertad religiosa de los sujetos que ostentan esa responsabilidad, en comparación con los ciudadanos en general; y si esa limitación es superior, qué la justifica y hasta dónde llega. Se trata de un problema de investigación que exige un doble abordaje. El primen), desde una perspectiva objetiva sobre los deberes del Estado laico y del ciudadano que se incorpora en él en calidad de servidor público. El seguido. desde un enfoque subjetivo sobre la libertad religiosa corno un derecho del que ese mismo servidor es titulan. Al conjugar las dos ópticas se desarrolla una reflexión sobre...
El silencio de los contratos civiles
El silencio es una figura enigmática rodeada del misterio que ofrece su ausencia de expresión y las múltiples explicaciones que subyacen tras él, entre lo que se supone que significa y lo que en realidad es. Por haber sido concebido de manera escasa, dubitativa e inconsistente, es necesario que se precise una valoración cierta sobre criterios objetivos en la experiencia dominicana y en la de muchas otras latitudes que comparten la misma incertidumbre. Ante la carencia de un concepto claro y de parámetros para definirlo, el recorrido de este libro de investigación iniciará con las formas en que el silencio se ha concebido tradicionalmente, para culminar con las que se proponen, por en...
Nutrition and an Active Life
This publication contains thirteen papers written by leading international public health professionals on a range of topics including the role of research into early childhood nutrition and the formulation of infant feeding policies; the control of iodine and vitamin A deficiencies; folic acid fortification of wheat flour; breast-feeding practices; nutrition recommendations within the context of local urban market realities; promoting active lifestyles and health urban spaces; and the importance of urban planning and public transport to public health objectives.
El principio del mérito incluyente una reformulación del sistema de ingreso al empleo público en Colombia
Dos grandes deudas tiene el Estado colombiano frente al derecho funda-mental de acceso igualitario a los cargos públicos: una por acción y otra por omisión. La primera, al existir una desconexión entre el ser y el deber ser de los concursos de méritos, y la segunda, por carecer de una política pública que garantice el aspecto material del derecho a la igualdad. El concepto tradicional de meritocracia produce un déficit constitucional que no refleja la sustancia de un Estado social de derecho cuyos pilares son la justicia distributiva y la igualdad material. Se puede afirmar que el empleo público en Colombia se encuentra en un estado de cosas inconstitucionales. Para supe-rar esta crisis, se considera necesario formular y ensayar nuevas alternativas a fin de mitigar los efectos del modelo tradicional de meritocracia. Se propone el principio del mérito incluyente como un aporte para saldar las deudas del Estado en materia de ingreso al servicio público en clave del nuevo pacto social.
Evolution and Palaeobiology of Pterosaurs
Pterosaurs were a peculiar group of Mesozoic vertebrates, which acquired the ability to fly in an original way, using a membrane attached to a single finger of the hand. Ever since the first description of a pterosaur skeleton in 1784, these remarkable animals have elicited much discussion and controversy among palaeontologists, and many basic questions about their origin, evolution and biology remain disputed. In the last few years, interest in pterosaurs has been revived by numerous discoveries of new and sometimes remarkably preserved specimens, which have enlarged and changed our picture of this group. The volume begins with descriptions of several new pterosaurs from the Triassic, Juras...
Paleogene Fossil Birds
In the present book the Paleogene fossil record of birds is detailed for the first time on a worldwide scale. I have developed the idea for such a project for several years, and think that it is an appropriate moment to present a summary of our c- rent knowledge of the early evolution of modern birds. Meanwhile not only is there a confusing diversity of fossil taxa, but also significant progress has been made concerning an understanding of the higher-level phylogeny of extant birds. Hypotheses which were not considered even a decade ago are now well supported by independent analyses of different data. In several cases these group together morphologically very different avian groups and allow a better understanding of the mosaic character distribution found in Paleogene fossil birds. The book aims at bringing some of this information together, and many of the following data are based on first-hand examination of fossil specimens.
The Pequot War
This book offers the first full-scale analysis of the Pequot War (1636-37), a pivotal event in New England colonial history. Through an innovative rereading of the Puritan sources, Alfred A. Cave refutes claims that settlers acted defensively to counter a Pequot conspiracy to exterminate Europeans. Drawing on archaeological, linguistic, and anthropological evidences to trace the evolution of the conflict, he sheds new light on the motivations of the Pequots and their Indian allies, the fur trade, and the cultural values and attitudes in New England. He also provides a reappraisal of the interaction of ideology and self- interest as motivating factors in the Puritan attack on the Pequots.
A Fighting Chance
Seventeen-year-old Miguel Angel spends every minute after school at the Packing Shed, working out with the Alisal Boxing Club. He dreams of becoming a champion so he can get his mother and five siblings out of their cramped one-bedroom apartment in one of Salinas' poorest barrios. But suddenly his life gets more complicated. The city is threatening to take the Packing Shed away from Coach, and without a place to train he won't be able to avoid the gangbangers in his neighborhood. His childhood friend, Beto, has succumbed to the wiles of easy money and expensive cars, and Miguel Angel wonders if he'll be able to resist his friend. Meanwhile, beautiful blonde Britney from Pebble Beach has ente...
Boolean Functions
Written by prominent experts in the field, this monograph provides the first comprehensive, unified presentation of the structural, algorithmic and applied aspects of the theory of Boolean functions. The book focuses on algebraic representations of Boolean functions, especially disjunctive and conjunctive normal form representations. This framework looks at the fundamental elements of the theory (Boolean equations and satisfiability problems, prime implicants and associated short representations, dualization), an in-depth study of special classes of Boolean functions (quadratic, Horn, shellable, regular, threshold, read-once functions and their characterization by functional equations) and two fruitful generalizations of the concept of Boolean functions (partially defined functions and pseudo-Boolean functions). Several topics are presented here in book form for the first time. Because of the depth and breadth and its emphasis on algorithms and applications, this monograph will have special appeal for researchers and graduate students in discrete mathematics, operations research, computer science, engineering and economics.
Operations Management
Global competition has caused fundamental changes in the competitive environment of the manufacturing and service industries. Firms should develop strategic objectives that, upon achievement, result in a competitive advantage in the market place. The forces of globalization on one hand and rapidly growing marketing opportunities overseas, especially in emerging economies on the other, have led to the expansion of operations on a global scale. The book aims to cover the main topics characterizing operations management including both strategic issues and practical applications. A global environmental business including both manufacturing and services is analyzed. The book contains original research and application chapters from different perspectives. It is enriched through the analyses of case studies.
