El libro "Fundamentos de Derecho Disciplinario" se presenta como un esfuerzo comprensivo para llenar los vacíos existentes en la literatura sobre el derecho disciplinario, un área crucial para la administración de justicia y la gobernanza dentro del Estado.

A través de diversos capítulos, los autores exploran temas como el control de convencionalidad, los principios disciplinarios ...
Friedensvertrage mussen zum einen Anreize fur die Tater enthalten, damit diese bereit sind, den bewaffneten Konflikt zu beenden, und zum anderen die Grundlagen fur die Versohnung der zerstrittenen Gesellschaft und eine friedvolle Zukunft legen. Im jungsten kolumbianischen Friedensprozess wurde ein Prazedenzfall geschaffen, mit dem verfassungsrechtliche Anforderungen an die Regelung der Bestrafung von Verbrechen und die Wiedergutmachung fur die Opfer formuliert wurden. Niklas Eckhardt untersucht dieses Spannungsverhaltnis zwischen rechtsstaatlichen Anforderungen und den Herausforderungen des Friedensprozesses. Er entwickelt ein zur Rechtsprechung des kolumbianischen Verfassungsgerichts alternatives Modell, das anhand rechtlicher Massstabe offenlegt, dass ungerechtfertigte Amnestien fur Militars gewahrt werden. Dabei erlautert er, inwiefern Amnestien und Straffreistellungen mit dem geltenden Volkerrecht vereinbar sind.
The Juan Fernández Archipelago is located in the Pacific Ocean west of Chile at 33° S latitude. Robinson Crusoe Island is 667 km from the continent and approximately four million years old; Alejandro Selkirk Island is an additional 181 km west and only one million years old. The natural impacts of subsidence and erosion have shaped the landscapes of these islands, resulting in progressive changes to their subtropical vegetation. The older island has undergone more substantial changes, due to both natural causes and human impacts. After the discovery of Robinson Crusoe Island in 1574, people began cutting down forests for lumber to construct boats and homes, for firewood, and to make room for pastures. Domesticated plants and animals were introduced, some of which have since become feral or invasive, causing damage to the local vegetation. The wealth of historical records on these activities provides a detailed chronicle of how human beings use their environment for survival in a new ecosystem. This book offers an excellent case study on the impacts that people can have on the resources of an oceanic island.
For people and governments around the world, the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic seemed to place the preservation of human life at odds with the pursuit of economic and social life. Yet this simple alternative belies the complexity of the entanglements the crisis has created and revealed, not just between health and wealth but also around morality, knowledge, governance, culture, and everyday subsistence. Didier Fassin and Marion Fourcade have assembled an eminent team of scholars from across the social sciences, conducting research on six continents, to reflect on the multiple ways the coronavirus has entered, reshaped, or exacerbated existing trends and structures in every part of the globe. The contributors show how the disruptions caused by the pandemic have both hastened the rise of new social divisions and hardened old inequalities and dilemmas. An indispensable volume, Pandemic Exposures provides an illuminating analysis of this watershed moment and its possible aftermath.

“La universidad humanista en un mundo globalizado es un libro escrito con la intención de reivindicar la necesidad de recuperar la universidad humanista. La universidad en su verdad esencial. Aquella que surgió para enseñar a pensar y a trasladar lo pensado de la forma mejor, más bella y más clara. Aquella universidad en la que la retórica era una asignatura esencial al igual que la música y las artes. Aquella universidad cuya misión era formar y no sólo informar. Mucho tiempo ha pasado desde ese momento y la universidad se ha diversificado para adaptarse a los tiempos modernos y a los conocimientos que precisan ser analizados y enseñados. Esta adaptación es sin duda necesaria p...
The late antique and the early medieval periods witnessed the flourishing of bishops in the West as the main articulators of social life. This influential position exposed them to several threats, both political and religious. Researchers have generally addressed violence, rebellions or conflicts to study the dynamics related to secular powers during these periods. They haven’t paid similar attention, however, to those analogous contexts that had bishops as protagonists. This book proposes an approach to bishops as threatened subjects in the late antique and early medieval West. In particular, the volume pursues three main goals. Firstly, it aims to identify the different types of threats ...
