International Income Inequality
What causes inequality? This book features an international discussion on the economic causes of inequality between nations and addresses the causes and effects of world inequality and its possible remedies. Inequality has acquired the iconic status once accorded to Full Employment, Growth, and Inflation. It is not a new issue being a major preoccupation of welfare state literature and the development debates of the 1950s and intersects with debates among economic historians on The Great Divergence. The revivals of these two intersecting controversies go beyond a minor dispute on the margins of economics, to the heart of the question ‘how far can we trust the market?’ The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of The Japanese Political Economy.
State and Nation Making in Latin America and Spain: Volume 3
Neoliberalism is often studied as a political ideology, a government program, and even as a pattern of cultural identities. However, less attention is paid to the specific institutional resources employed by neoliberal administrations, which have resulted in the configuration of a neoliberal state model. This accessible volume compiles original essays on the neoliberal era in Latin America and Spain, exploring subjects such as neoliberal public policies, power strategies, institutional resources, popular support, and social protest. The book focuses on neoliberalism as a state model: a configuration of public power designed to implement radical policy proposals. This is the third volume in the State and Nation Making in Latin America and Spain series, which aims to complete and advance research and knowledge about national states in Latin America and Spain.
Daniel Verbis
La exposición nos aproxima al complejo universo creativo de Verbis e incide en varios aspectos de su trabajo, como la deconstrucción del lenguaje pictórico, la experimentación con materiales extrapictóricos y el cuestionamiento del soporte: una gran instalación invita al espectador a sumergirse en una atmósfera cargada de estímulos, con dibujos sobre muro, esculturas, cajas de luz, cuadros y fotografías, sumergiéndolo en una dialéctica formal y conceptual entre el ojo del espectador y la imagen pintada que le devuelve la mirada.
The Old Ways
The Old Ways is the stunning new book by acclaimed nature writer Robert Macfarlane.Shortlisted for the Samuel Johnson prize 2012In The Old Ways Robert Macfarlane sets off from his Cambridge home to follow the ancient tracks, holloways, drove-roads and sea paths that form part of a vast network of routes criss-crossing the British landscape and its waters, and connecting them to the continents beyond. The result is an immersive, enthralling exploration of the ghosts and voices that haunt old paths, of the stories our tracks keep and tell, of pilgrimage and ritual, and of songlines and their singers. Above all this is a book about people and place: about walking as a reconnoitre inwards, and t...

De oude wegen
In De oude wegen onderzoekt Robert Macfarlane het verband tussen paden, wandelen en de verbeelding. Veel van het denkwerk ervoor verzette hij lopend. Het vertelt het verhaal van ruim duizend mijl wandelen over oude wegen, op zoek naar een route naar het verleden – met als resultaat dat hij telkens weer bij het heden uitkomt. Het is een onderzoek naar de geesten en de stemmen die op oude paden rondwaren, naar de verhalen die ze in zich dragen en vertellen, naar pelgrimages en erfvredebreuk, naar gezongen routes en degenen die ze zingen en naar de vreemde continenten die er binnen landen bestaan. Bovenal is het een boek over de mens en zijn omgeving: over lopen als een verkenning van het innerlijk en over de subtiele manier waarop we zijn gevormd door de landschappen waar we ons doorheen begeven.

No más mentiras
El autor enhebra con habilidad hechos artísticos de muy diversa naturaleza para proponer una sugerente idea: en el arte de las últimas décadas se percibe una marcada tendencia a la "verdad", en respuesta a la imposibilidad de continuar produciendo ficción, contando "mentiras".
