• Winner of the 1997 ARNOVA Award for Distinguished Book in Nonprofit and Voluntary Action Research The private third sector has largely displaced public universities and bureaucracies as Latin America's leaders in social science and related policy activities.

Levy deals broadly with regional developments, yet systematically identifies and analyzes the crucial subpatterns. He integrates impressive empirical data with conceptual perspectives on nonprofit organizations, comparative politics, and comparative education as well as Latin American studies.

Está muy bien definir la dignidad formalmente, como hace Kant cuando afirma que las personas tienen dignidad y no precio, puesto que poseen un valor absoluto al ser fines en sí mismos (cf. Fundamentación, Ak. IV 434-435), pero es evidente que tal definición resulta insuficiente y que la dignidad requiere ciertas condiciones para merecer ese nombre, un mínimo bienestar material que sirva de dique a la menesterosidad y al sufrimiento. Ésa es la razón de que los trabajos reunidos aquí aborden cuestiones tales como la eutanasia, el impacto de las nuevas tecnologías en la salud, la reflexión bioética, el significativo incremento de la longevidad, las claves del Estado de bienestar en E...
