Recuerdos de una alianza
Estamos frente a una obra colectiva muy interesante para generaciones actuales y futuras. Tal vez es una osada síntesis de nuestra ya longeva relación con instituciones francesas, tanto de formación e investigación en ingeniería, como de cooperación diplomática y académica. Es resultado de la clara voluntad de avanzar por parte de una joven Universidad llena de ilusiones y de jóvenes profesores y líderes dispuestos a tomar riesgos: la Universidad de los Andes y su Facultad de Ingeniería de los años sesenta y setenta. La República de Francia, con una visión de mediano y largo plazo, identificó un espacio para que, con base en la construcción de mayores capacidades científicas...
Spanish Books in the Europe of the Enlightenment (Paris and London)
In Spanish Books in the Europe of the Enlightenment (Paris and London) Nicolás Bas examines the image of Spain in eighteenth-century Europe, and in Paris and London in particular. His material has been scoured from an exhaustive interrogation of the records of the book trade. He refers to booksellers’ catalogues, private collections, auctions, and other sources of information in order to reconstruct the country’s cultural image. Rarely have these sources been searched for Spanish books, and never have they been as exhaustively exploited as they are in Bas’ book. Both England and France were conversant with some very negative ideas about Spain. The Black Legend, dating back to the sixteenth century, condemned Spain as repressive and priest-ridden. Bas shows however, that an alternative, more sympathetic, vision ran parallel with these negative views. His bibliographical approach brings to light the Spanish books that were bought, sold and ultimately read. The impression thus obtained is likely to help us understand not only Spain’s past, but also something of its present.
Los principios en el proceso civil
El primer volumen de esta serie, publicado en el año 2018, recoge diversos trabajos en los que distintos estudiosos del derecho procesal describen el modo como los distintos principios procesales son recogidos en diecisiete países de Iberoamérica. En esa ocasión, cada trabajo daba cuenta de cada ordenamiento jurídico procesal. En esta ocasión, y basados en la información de ese primer trabajo, se reúnen doce trabajos (uno de ellos del propio Michele Taruffo) en los que se hace un trabajo analítico de cada uno de los principios procesales. De este modo, mientras en el primer volumen se pueden encontrar los trabajos por país, en este segundo volumen los trabajos están organizados po...
Of Love and Papers
A free open access ebook is available upon publication. Learn more at www.luminosoa.org. Of Love and Papers explores how immigration policies are fundamentally reshaping Latino families. Drawing on two waves of interviews with undocumented young adults, Enriquez investigates how immigration status creeps into the most personal aspects of everyday life, intersecting with gender to constrain family formation. The imprint of illegality remains, even upon obtaining DACA or permanent residency. Interweaving the perspectives of US citizen romantic partners and children, Enriquez illustrates the multigenerational punishment that limits the upward mobility of Latino families. Of Love and Papers sparks an intimate understanding of contemporary US immigration policies and their enduring consequences for immigrant families.
The Rise of Ethnic Politics in Latin America

Narrow But Endlessly Deep
On 11 September 1973, the Chilean Chief of the Armed Forces Augusto Pinochet overthrew the Popular Unity government of Salvador Allende and installed a military dictatorship. Yet this is a book not of parties or ideologies but public history. It focuses on the memorials and memorialisers at seven sites of torture, extermination, and disappearance in Santiago, engaging with worldwide debates about why and how deeds of violence inflicted by the state on its own citizens should be remembered, and by whom. The sites investigated -- including the infamous National Stadium -- are among the most iconic of more than 1,000 such sites throughout the country. The study grants a glimpse of the depth of feeling that survivors and the families of the detained-disappeared and the politically executed bring to each of the sites. The book traces their struggle to memorialise each one, and so unfolds their idealism and hope, courage and frustration, their hatred, excitement, resentment, sadness, fear, division and disillusionment.
