Voces -30. Nueva narrativa chilena
"Las generaciones literarias son incómodas como respuestas pero inevitables como preguntas. Esta antología plantea la pregunta por una nueva generación literaria con avidez. Una pregunta que se respondió demasiado pronto, y acaso precipitadamente, en el Chile post-dictadura de los '90. Una pregunta que permanece abierta, todavía sin cuajar, respecto de los narradores que empezaron a publicar en esa década. Una pregunta que se abre nuevamente, en estos extendidos prolegómenos del siglo XXI, a través de un conjunto pujante de nuevos escritores de los cuales se quiere dar una muestra sucinta en este volumen. Desde luego no es claro que los una nada. Pero los temas del desamparo, la dificultad de establecer relaciones duraderas, la banalidad de los medios de comunicación y una cierta desconfianza en la literatura, sobre todo la pomposa y engolada, son algunos de los rasgos que parecen recorrer el conjunto de los relatos. Antes de que el tiempo de su respuesta definitiva, será el lector el encargado de elegir qué caminos le interesa recorrer, a qué autores acompañar, y por qué. Pablo Torche, escritor
New Horizons in Spanish Colonial Law
http://dx.doi.org/10.12946/gplh3 http://www.epubli.de/shop/buch/48746 "Spanish colonial law, derecho indiano, has since the early 20th century been a vigorous subdiscipline of legal history. One of great figures in the field, the Argentinian legal historian Víctor Tau Anzoátegui, published in 1997 his Nuevos horizontes en el estudio histórico del derecho indiano. The book, in which Tau addressed seminal methodological questions setting tone for the discipline’s future orientation, proved to be the starting point for an important renewal of the discipline. Tau drew on the writings of legal historians, such as Paolo Grossi, Antonio Manuel Hespanha, and Bartolomé Clavero. Tau emphasized t...

Human Security
During his lifetime, W.E. Blatz was so much occupied with the development of the University of Toronto’s Institute of Child Study that he was able to devote little time to writing. This is his first book to appear in twenty-one years, and his first complete exposition of his famous Theory of Security. The Theory of Security is radically different from the theories promulgated by Freudian psychologists. Whereas Freudian personality theory is based on the notion of “unconscious,” an entity that is only indirectly observable, the Theory of Security derives from the observation of the conscious state in all its manifestations. Dr. Blatz thus makes use of both empirical observations and the...
Koch + Partner 1970-2000
Koch + Partner recently made the headlines when they won the competition to design the new Terminal 2 at Munich Airport -- nevertheless the architectural community has long been aware of this office. Their architecture does not consist of singular, extravagant constructions but is characterised by buildings which harmonise with the townscape, expertly serving their purpose. Their forms are clear and calm, blending with the existing structures and simultaneously enhancing them. The present book documents the work of this interdisciplinary team over the previous three decades. The full range of their work is considered -- from extensive urban planning projects to the realisation of multi-storey buildings. It also reveal how a sense of team spirit and partnership can be used to the advantage of not only private and public clients but also the user.
