This publication has four objectives which are pursued in three chapters. First, it synthesizes and describes the emergence of the right to die with dignity in Colombia, analyzing how it was born, how it has evolved, and how it has been consolidated in recent decades, proposing a genealogy of the process that allows us to understand and communicate it. Second, it reflects on the law as an instrument of social change: it uses the path of the emergence and evolution of the right to die with dignity as a successful case—despite its difficulties and limitations. These two objectives are developed in the first chapter. Third, the publication examines Colombia's current state of the right to die...
As a result of the methodological route traced and followed, this document systematizes nine technical guidelines that will guarantee the right to a dignified death, to legal capacity and make operational the principle of the best interpretation of persons’ will and preferences. These guidelines address the following matters: (1) the significance of making the best interpretation of the person’s will and preferences; (2) the need to assess the impossibility of giving consent of those for whom MAiD is requested; (3) the composition of the support network; (4) addressing and ruling out conflicts of interest; (5) verifying that the health system has offered palliative care and the adequacy of the therapeutic effort ; (6) the role that both the medical records and previous conversations with care practitioners can play in the process; (7) the assessment of suffering in terms of the person’s life experience; (8) constructing the life narrative and the best interpretation of the will and preferences through interviews with the support network and; (9) the necessary consensus in the interpretation of the will and preferences.
Esta publicación se propone cuatro objetivos que se logran en tres capítulos. En primer lugar, sintetiza y describe el proceso de surgimiento del derecho a morir dignamente en Colombia. Analiza cómo nació, cómo ha evolucionado y cómo se ha consolidado en las últimas décadas y propone así una genealogía del proceso que permite entenderlo y comunicarlo. En segundo lugar, hace una reflexión sobre el derecho como una herramienta de cambio social usando el proceso de surgimiento y evolución del derecho a morir dignamente como un caso exitoso y, por supuesto, lleno de límites y dificultades. Estos dos objetivos se desarrollan en el primer capítulo. En tercer lugar, la publicación ab...
El informe Escapar de la Exclusión desarrolla los avances y los retos que tiene Bogotá (Colombia) para avanzar en la garantía del derecho a la educación inclusiva de las personas con discapacidad. Para ello, en primer lugar, se presenta un panorama cuantitativo detallado del acceso de las personas con discapacidad a la educación. En segundo lugar, presentan once retos que tiene la sociedad civil y la administración local para avanzar en la garantía del derecho
Producto de la ruta metodológica trazada y recorrida, el presente documento sistematiza nueve lineamientos técnicos los cuales permitirán garantizar el derecho a la muerte digna, a la capacidad jurídica y volver operativo el principio de la mejor interpretación de la voluntad y de las preferencias de las personas en casos en que las personas no pueden manifestar su voluntad y no lo hicieron anticipadamente. Los lineamientos abordan: (1) el significado de hacer la mejor interpretación de la voluntad y las preferencias de la persona; (2) la necesidad de evaluar la imposibilidad de manifestar la voluntad por parte de la persona en nombre de quien se hace la solicitud; (3) la composición ...
This book deals with modern Computer-Aided Design (CAD) software tools and platforms implemented in ship design, the integration of techno-economic databases, the use of optimisation and simulation software tools, which are integrated in these platforms, and the virtual modelling of ships and their operation by using a Virtual Vessel Framework (VVF). It contains a series of application case studies related to the developed holistic approach to ship design and operation. Nine case studies are described, referring to the design and operation of various ship types, namely RoPax, cruise ship, double-ended ferry, bulk carrier, containership, offshore support vessel, ocean surveillance ship and research vessel and one offshore structure. All case studies are driven by leading representatives of the European Maritime Industry. This book complements A Holistic Approach to Ship Design, volume 1, which covers methods and tools for the life cycle optimisation and assessment of ship design and operation.
El informe #EscuelaParaTodos aborda el panorama y los retos que tiene Colombia para avanzar en la garantía del derecho a la educación inclusiva de las personas con discapacidad. Para ello, en primer lugar, se presenta un panorama cuantitativo detallado del acceso de las personas con discapacidad a la educación. En segundo lugar, se analiza de manera crítica las normas que han regulado y regulan este derecho, para lo cual se reconstruye el camino que ha seguido el derecho a la educación inclusiva. Finalmente, el texto cierra con la profundización en algunos retos que tienen el Estado y la sociedad civil en el avance certero de la implementación del artículo 24 de la Convención de Naciones Unidas sobre los Derechos de las Personas con Discapacidad
Genetic and Evolutionary Computing This volume of Advances in Intelligent Systems and Computing contains accepted papers presented at ICGEC 2013, the 7th International Conference on Genetic and Evolutionary Computing. The conference this year was technically co-sponsored by The Waseda University in Japan, Kaohsiung University of Applied Science in Taiwan, and VSB-Technical University of Ostrava. ICGEC 2013 was held in Prague, Czech Republic. Prague is one of the most beautiful cities in the world whose magical atmosphere has been shaped over ten centuries. Places of the greatest tourist interest are on the Royal Route running from the Powder Tower through Celetna Street to Old Town Square, t...
Considering aspects of symmetry rules in chemistry, one is faced with con tradictory terms as for example, "90 % concertedness" sometimes being used in literature. To accept conservation of orbital symmetry to be as controlled as inversion by alternative principles seems far more promising. The intention of this book is aimed at introducing a qualitative understanding of phase rela tions in electromagnetic interactions. Avoiding one-sided dogmatism we tried to demonstrate the importance of alternative principles as guidelines to the evolution of alternative order in chemical systems. Passing through the jungle of information it became extremly important to control again and again our insight...
