Pese a que la posición de Chile en el mundo mejoró radicalmente en los últimos treinta años, el proyecto internacional post-dictatorial está agotado. Hoy es necesario avanzar hacia un nuevo ciclo de la política exterior. En Nuevas voces de política exterior: Chile y el mundo en la era post-consensual, un elenco paritario de una nueva generación de internacionalistas ofrece, con creatividad y rigurosidad, una audaz agenda progresista para las próximas décadas. A partir de una diplomacia eprendedora, se propone una política exterior feminista, plurinacional, más democrática y descentralizada. En esta nueva etapa de su historia, el país necesita recuperar su vocación multilateral y latinoamericana, posicionar a los Derechos Humanos como un sello distintivo de su presencia internacional, y apostar a convertirse en una potencia turquesa en el contexto de la crisis climática. Nuevas voces de política exterior realiza una contribución sustantiva al creciente debate público sobre el lugar de Chile en el mundo y a la reducción de las brechas generacionales, de conocimiento y de género de la política exterior.
This book provides a comprehensive, conceptual and analytical framework for understanding the reordering process in the Latin American and Caribbean (LAC) region, driven and shaped by China–US rivalry. It demonstrates the differences between China–US, China–LAC and US–LAC relations and questions to what extent the LAC region can be considered a unified actor. Exploring broad perspectives such as global governance, international institutions, trade, security policy, climate change, multilateralism and regional and global peace and stability, the contributors also consider China’s Belt and Road Initiative, the Community of Latin American and Caribbean States (CELAC) and “minilateral” cooperation, sustainable development and business and the role of soft power, such as tourism and education in China–LAC relations. This timely and important contribution analyzing the changing regional order in the LAC region brought about by China’s global rise and increasing hegemonic competition with the US will appeal to scholars and student of international relations, international political economy, and security studies.
Tis book originated as a small reference manual that I created to serve as an educational supplement for the dermatology residents a-t Loui siana State University Health Sciences Center. Deeming the compiled information to be useful for all dermatologists, I decided to expand the text and publish it. Every major category of the patient evaluation, from the chief complaint to the diagnosis, is addressed with regard to the dermatological diferential diagnosis. Te establishment of a precise diferential diagnosis for a gi- ven cu taneous problem is the fundamental challenge that the dermatologist faces with every patient. Tis unique exercise is very intellectual; in a short period of time the cl...

Future Matters concerns contemporary approaches to the future – how the future is known, created and minded. In a social world whose pace continues to accelerate the future becomes an increasingly difficult terrain. While the focus of social life is narrowing down to the present, the futures we create on a daily basis cast ever longer shadows. Future Matters addresses this paradox and its deep ethical implications. It locates contemporary approaches to the future in a wider sociological and historical framework of practices, traces differences and continuities, and shows how contemporary practices of futures-construction make taking responsibility for futures all but impossible.
This catalogue accompanied the first American museum retrospective of the English artist Francis Bacon. In his essay, Senior Curator Lawrence Alloway explores the essence of Bacon's painting beyond the usual associations with the grotesque. Instead, he offers a different argument: Bacon was a realist painter of his time, closely tied into the Grand Manner and painters such as Manet, Van Gogh, Velasquez, and Titian. Bacon continued and evolved the central tradition of European figure painting at a time when abstraction was dominating the art world. Also included are an exhibition checklist, 64 color and black-and-white reproductions, and a bibliography.
