Diversos y múltiples han sido los sucesos que han cambiado la forma de concebir y aplicar el Derecho, sobre todo, las experimentadas al encuentro de la segunda década del siglo XXI. Así, en sus albores, vale recapitular la manera en la que se enseña, se aprende y se investiga la ciencia jurídica, porque es imposible seguir practicándola, en contra de su propio dinamismo.Sobre esto último se justifica el por qué y para qué de la obra que se introduce y los términos en los se realizó.Los PI, en sentido amplio, se refieren a la implementación de «acciones», que necesariamente involucran análisis concretos de situaciones específicas para el diseño, aplicación, monitoreo y evalu...
En el mundo actual resulta difícil sustraerse a la idea de que la globalización económica, política y jurídica ha marcado el devenir de las actuales crisis de las constituciones nacionales; no obstante, la monografía que les presentamos visibiliza una realidad en muchas ocasiones ignorada: el auge de un constitucionalismo universal que tiene preocupaciones comunes como los problemas que presenta el cambio climático y la protección del medio ambiente, la cibercriminalidad, el auge del populismo y los partidos políticos extremistas o la financiación transnacional de los partidos políticos. La égida también de un constitucionalismo que hoy más que nunca es técnica de la libertad e instrumento de igualdad e integración de mayorías preteridas como las mujeres o de minorías por siempre vejadas como los indígenas. Esta es una obra que relata las principales preocupaciones del constitucionalismo mexicano y español de nuestros días, que como podrá corroborar el lector atento son las de todos.

More than just an expression of religious authority or an instrument of social control, the Inquisition was an arena where cultures met and clashed on both shores of the Atlantic. This pioneering volume examines how cultural identities were maintained despite oppression.

These investigations of social resistance and cultural persistence will reinforce the cultural significance of the Inquisition. Contributors: Jaime Contreras, Anne J. Cruz, Jesús M.

From World War II until the 1980s, the United States reigned supreme as both the economic and the military leader of the world. The major shifts in global politics that came about with the dismantling of the Eastern Bloc have left the United States unchallenged as the pre-eminent military power, but American economic might has declined drastically in the face of competition, first from Germany and Japan and more recently from the newly prosperous countries elsewhere. In this book, Noam Chomsky points to the potentially catastrophic consequences of this imbalance. He reveals a world in which the United States exploits its advantage ruthlessly to enforce its national interests - and in the process destroys weaker nations. Deterring Democracy offers a devastating analysis of American Imperialism, drawing alarming connections between its repression of information inside the US and its aggressive empire-building abroad.

Transitions from authoritarian to democratic governments can provide ripe scenarios for the emergence of new, insurgent political actors and causes. During peaceful transitions, such movements may become influential political players and gain representation for previously neglected interests and sectors of the population. But for this to happen, insurgent social movements need opportunities for mobilization, success, and survival. This book looks at Mexico's Zapatista movement, and why the movement was able to mobilize sympathy and support for the indigenous agenda inside and outside of the country, yet failed to achieve their goals vis-à-vis the Mexican state.
