Canciones de lejos
"Las alianzas musicales entre Chile y México tienen una larga trayectoria. Fue esta valiosa correspondencia la que motivó la creación de Canciones de lejos. Complicidades musicales entre Chile y México. En este libro se describe el intercambio de música tradicional como las cuecas chilenas y las rancheras mexicanas, hasta los géneros contemporáneos interpretados por representantes de estos países del norte y el sur de América. Las historias de triunfo en el exilio mexicano de músicos chilenos, como Lucho Gatica, Monna Bell, Palmenia Pizarro, Los Ángeles Negros, La Ley, Los Bunkers, Mon Laferte, y de músicos mexicanos como Jorge Negrete y Café Tacvba en Chile, se reseñan aquí con detalle. Investigadores, cronistas y músicos de ambas naciones desentrañan estas relaciones musicales, a partir de un proyecto que fue consolidándose gracias a la comunicación recíproca de experiencias en eventos como Imesur, Fluvial, Pulsar y Fimpro."
Canciones de lejos
Chile y México son dos naciones separadas por hemisferios y miles de kilómetros de distancia, sin embargo, se encuentran enlazadas por un cúmulo de experiencias, manifestaciones y expresiones a lo largo de más de dos siglos, y es en la música donde este vínculo se materializa. Esta obra revela algunas de las claves de esta alianza fraterna entre la nación del norte y la del sur: del bolero al rock, de la canción romántica a la vanguardia y de la ranchera al pop. Nombres insignes y diversos como Sonia la Única, Café Tacvba, Pedro Infante o Mon Laferte (por mencionar algunos) son revisados a través de crónicas periodísticas, ensayos y testimonios que muestran el valioso intercambio cultural de ambos países.

Spain, a Global History
From the late fifteenth to the nineteenth centuries, the Hispanic Monarchy was one of the largest and most diverse political communities known in history. At its apogee, it stretched from the Castilian plateau to the high peaks of the Andes; from the cosmopolitan cities of Seville, Naples, or Mexico City to Santa Fe and San Francisco; from Brussels to Buenos Aires and from Milan to Manila. During those centuries, Spain left its imprint across vast continents and distant oceans contributing in no minor way to the emergence of our globalised era. This was true not only in an economic sense-the Hispano-American silver peso transported across the Atlantic and the Pacific by the Spanish fleets wa...
International Human Rights Law in a Global Context
The international human rights system remains as dynamic as ever. If at the end of the last century there was a sense that the normative and institutional development of the system had been completed and that the emphasis should shift to issues of implementation, nothing of the sort occurred. Even over the last few years significant changes happened, as this book amply demonstrates. We hope that this Manual makes a contribution to the development of International Human Rights Law and is of interest for those working in the field of promotion and protection of human rights. The book is the result of a joint project under the auspices of HumanitarianNet, a Thematic Network led by the University of Deusto, and the European Inter-University Centre for Human Rights and Democratisation (EIUC, Venice).
