La presente obra reúne una selección de ponencias presentadas, tanto por alumnos, investigadores, especialistas y profesores de derecho, en los III, IV, V y VI Congresos Estudiantiles de Derecho de la Judicatura, iniciativa de los estudiantes de Derecho de la Pontificia Universidad Católica de Valparaíso, en la cual se procura cultivar el estudio y reflexión de esta particular e incipiente disciplina jurídica.
El Congreso Estudiantil de Derecho de la Judicatura nace en el año 2011 como una iniciativa de estudiantes de la Escuela de Derecho de la Pontificia Universidad Católica de Valparaíso frente a la necesidad de estudiar los tópicos relevantes de la judicatura, entendida ésta en un sentido amplio, comprensivo tanto del ámbito de materias relativas a la organización de los tribunales y al estatus del juez y demás operadores judiciales, como del campo temático concerniente a la actividad de juzgar y su entorno institucional. Durante 2011 y 2012 tuvieron lugar la primera y segunda versión del Congreso, organizadas por un grupo de estudiantes de la antedicha Escuela, con el copatrocinio de la Academia Judicial de Chile y el Centro de Estudios Ius Novum, y el auspicio de un selecto grupo de estudios jurídicos de la región de Valparaíso. La presente obra colectiva reúne los trabajos más destacados de los estudiantes que participaron en ambas versiones y, a la vez, contiene algunas de las exposiciones de los profesores, jueces y funcionarios judiciales que enriquecieron el debate estudiantil con sus valiosos aportes.
En medio del reciente debate sobre el cambio de la Constitución de nuestro país, que ha cobrado especial intensidad con la reforma constitucional habilitante de un procedimiento para elaborar una nueva Constitución a fines de 2019, vuelve a surgir con fuerza la noción de tradición constitucional chilena como parámetro de evaluación del proceso constituyente. En el primer volumen de esta investigación, el destacado constitucionalista José Francisco García desarrolló el marco conceptual para estudiar la idea de tradición constitucional, el caso chileno y, de manera específica, el aporte de la tradición constitucional de la Facultad de Derecho de la Pontificia Universidad Católic...
A new and urgently needed guide to making the American economy more competitive at a time when tech giants have amassed vast market power. The U.S. economy is growing less competitive. Large businesses increasingly profit by taking advantage of their customers and suppliers. These firms can also use sophisticated pricing algorithms and customer data to secure substantial and persistent advantages over smaller players. In our new Gilded Age, the likes of Google and Amazon fill the roles of Standard Oil and U.S. Steel. Jonathan Baker shows how business practices harming competition manage to go unchecked. The law has fallen behind technology, but that is not the only problem. Inspired by Rober...
This volume explores the converging properties of "Generation X" through the fields of literature, media studies, youth culture, popular culture, sociology, philosophy, feminism, and political science. It broadens critics' engagement with the "Generation X" label, tracing the global and local flows that determine the identity of each country's youth from the 1970s well into the twenty-first century.
In this study on democracy and democratic systems, two scholars offer an expansive view of democratic systems and explain why democracy has succeeded in some countries and has failed in others.

Many reports over the last few years have analysed the potential use of games, videogames, 3D environments and virtual reality for educational purposes. Numerous emerging technological devices have also appeared that will play important roles in the development of teaching and learning processes. In the context of these developments, learning rather than teaching becomes the main axis in the organisation of the educational process. This process has now gone beyond the analogue world and face-toface education to enter the digital world, where new learning environments are being produced with ever greater doses of realism. Teaching and Learning in Digital Worlds examines the teaching and learning process in 3D virtual environments from both the theoretical and practical points of view.
This book is a descriptive grammar of Aguaruna, known to its speakers as Iiniá Chicham, a Jivaroan language spoken by some 55,000 people in the northwest Peruvian Amazon. Aguaruna is typologically and historically significant because of its location in the eastern foothills of the Andes, right between the Andean and Amazonian linguistic areas. Some typologically unusual syntactic phenomena, for example in the areas of grammatical relations and case marking, make this description relevant beyond the areal context. This is the first full grammar of a Jivaroan language, covering phonology, morphology and syntax as well as addressing some issues in discourse structure. It is an important work for specialists in South American languages as well as for linguists working in more general typological fields.
Traditionally, the study of internal combustion engines operation has focused on the steady-state performance. However, the daily driving schedule of automotive and truck engines is inherently related to unsteady conditions. In fact, only a very small portion of a vehicle’s operating pattern is true steady-state, e. g. , when cruising on a motorway. Moreover, the most critical conditions encountered by industrial or marine engines are met during transients too. Unfortunately, the transient operation of turbocharged diesel engines has been associated with slow acceleration rate, hence poor driveability, and overshoot in particulate, gaseous and noise emissions. Despite the relatively large ...
