Populism and Postcolonialism
This book investigates the interconnections between populism and neoliberalism through the lens of postcolonialism. Its primary focus is to build a distinct understanding of the concept of populism as a political movement in the twenty-first century, interwoven with the lasting effects of colonialism. This volume particularly aims to fill the gap in the current literature by establishing a clear-cut connection between populism and postcolonialism. It sees populism as a contemporary and collective political response to the international crisis of the nation-state's limited capacity to deal with the burst of global capitalism into everyday life. Writings on Ecuador, Colombia, Chile, Brazil, Italy, France and Argentina offer regional perspectives which, in turn, provide the reader with a deepened global view of the main features of the multiple and complex relations between postcoloniality and populism. This book will be of interest to sociologists, anthropologists and political scientists as well as postgraduate students who are interested in the problem of populism in the days of postcolonialism.
Historia rural de Chile central. TOMO II
En este segundo tomo analizamos el modo cómo los campesinos rompen las relaciones de subordinación, que aparecían como relaciones de lealtad con sus patrones. Una larga historia de humillaciones y ofensas explota. Por cierto, era el Estado quien imprimía el ritmo de reforma, pero esta se produjo en medio de un inimaginable proceso de movilizaciones. Fueron, sin duda, los cinco años de mayor gravitación y profundidad en la historia moderna del país. El golpe de Estado del 1973 es incomprensible sin la Reforma Agraria y la revuelta campesina que la acompañó y que la hizo posible. Nada fue igual en el campo. El sistema de haciendas se hizo pedazos, la propiedad se pulverizó, los inquilinos dejaron de serlo, miles de miles de campesinos salieron de los fundos y haciendas donde habían vivido por generaciones y generaciones.
Historia de la Iglesia en Chile
Presentamos el Tomo V y final de la Colección Historia de la Iglesia en Chile, dirigida por el historiador Marcial Sánchez Gaete. Un trabajo de largo aliento que agrupa diferentes miradas y estudios de historiadores, académicos y especialistas en el tema eclesiástico. ¿Por qué una obra como esta? El director de la Colección, comparte las razones que lo llevaron a emprender una tarea de esta envergadura: “…nace del aburrimiento de leer siempre lo mismo en la historia nacional dejando de lado a actores más que relevantes, a instituciones más que importantes; nace de la convicción que la historia es dinámica como el hombre y, por tanto, puedo verla a través del tiempo con los oj...

Advances in Credit Risk Modeling and Management
Credit risk remains one of the major risks faced by most financial and credit institutions. It is deeply connected to the real economy due to the systemic nature of some banks, but also because well-managed lending facilities are key for wealth creation and technological innovation. This book is a collection of innovative papers in the field of credit risk management. Besides the probability of default (PD), the major driver of credit risk is the loss given default (LGD). In spite of its central importance, LGD modeling remains largely unexplored in the academic literature. This book proposes three contributions in the field. Ye & Bellotti exploit a large private dataset featuring non-perfor...
Adaptive Radiation Therapy
Modern medical imaging and radiation therapy technologies are so complex and computer driven that it is difficult for physicians and technologists to know exactly what is happening at the point-of-care. Medical physicists responsible for filling this gap in knowledge must stay abreast of the latest advances at the intersection of medical imaging an
Marvels and Miracles
Marvels and Miracles is one of the last works written by Maria Woodworth-Etter in her long ministry as an evangelist in the Pentecostal movement. This story recounts many events during her lifetime, from holding tent revival meetings at her own expense, to persecution and violent attacks from local townspeople in attempts to silence her ministry. Contributors such as Stanley Frodsham, F.F. Bosworth, and many others recount the miracles and healings they received through Jesus Christ. With testimonies of healing from doctors, sinners, and saints; there is an overwhelming cloud of witnesses that these miraculous events did in fact take place. This proving what she taught so adamantly, that God is the same yesterday, today, and forever, and His power to heal has not diminished. It is the same as on the day of Pentecost, in 1924, and today.
