“One of the definite merits of this book is to cleverly mix a theoretical breakthrough with a meticulous historical and empirical account of the transformations of some key Latin American countries. First, it is at the frontier of a research agenda initiated back to the end of the 1970s, second it clearly distinguishes between an ideal-type approach and the complexity of any specific national configuration and its transformation in history. Furthermore, the author provides decisive arguments against a pure economic determinism too frequently supposed to govern institutions building and reforms. Last but not least, the book culminates by an impressive analysis of the crises that quite any L...
Despite the fact that in the digital domain, designers can take full benefits of IPs and design automation tools to synthesize and design very complex systems, the analog designers’ task is still considered as a ‘handcraft’, cumbersome and very time consuming process. Thus, tremendous efforts are being deployed to develop new design methodologies in the analog/RF and mixed-signal domains. This book collects 16 state-of-the-art contributions devoted to the topic of systematic design of analog, RF and mixed signal circuits. Divided in the two parts Methodologies and Techniques recent theories, synthesis techniques and design methodologies, as well as new sizing approaches in the field of robust analog and mixed signal design automation are presented for researchers and R/D engineers.
El ejemplar que el lector tiene en sus manos es un esfuerzo colectivo para ofrecer un diagnóstico de los riesgos de ser víctimas de violencia que enfrentan las mujeres al transitar cotidianamente en una metrópoli como la Ciudad de México. El libro resulta relevante para el debate actual sobre la urgencia de implementar políticas públicas que contribuyan a erradicar la violencia sistemática presente en los espacios públicos y particularmente en el transporte, así como para examinar los retos que enfrentan las mujeres para acceder al espacio público de manera segura y equitativa, desde la salida del hogar hasta llegar al destino deseado. Esta obra ofrece un panorama general de la situación de movilidad de las mujeres e incluye datos estadísticos respecto a zonas de riesgo en el espacio público; explora las percepciones y testimonios de las propias usuarias respecto a las causas de la violencia y a situaciones concretas y, finalmente, ofrece una orientación respecto a las acciones que pueden abordar las políticas públicas con el objetivo de garantizar el acceso de las mujeres a una vida libre de violencia.

The first comprehensive review of the current and future effects of climate change on the world’s fisheries and aquaculture operations The first book of its kind, Climate Change Impacts on Fisheries and Aquaculture explores the impacts of climate change on global fisheries resources and on marine aquaculture. It also offers expert suggestions on possible adaptations to reduce those impacts. The world's climate is changing more rapidly than scientists had envisioned just a few years ago, and the potential impact of climate change on world food production is quite alarming. Nowhere is the sense of alarm more keenly felt than among those who study the warming of the world's oceans. Evidence o...
Roving vigilantes, fear-mongering politicians, hysterical pundits, and the looming shadow of a seven hundred-mile-long fence: the US–Mexican border is one of the most complex and dynamic areas on the planet today. Hyperborder provides the most nuanced portrait yet of this dynamic region. Author Fernando Romero presents a multidisciplinary perspective informed by interviews with numerous academics, researchers, and organizations. Provocatively designed in the style of other kinetic large-scale studies like Rem Koolhaas's Content and Bruce Mau’s Massive Change, Hyperborder is an exhaustively researched report from the front lines of the border debate.
En mars 2000, l'Association nationale des institutions financières colombienne, publie un rapport révélant que la narco-économie (toutes drogues confondues) représentait en 1999 un chiffre d'affaires de 300 milliards de francs français soit 56 % du PIB de ce pays : 'L'économie de la cocaïne, une clef pour comprendre la Colombie". Principaux bénéficiaires de cette "manne" colossale, les cartels. En février 2000, le chef de la police de l'importante ville-frontière mexicaine qu'est Tijuana est abattu en pleine rue par des hommes surgis de trois voitures, les coupables sont des tueurs à gages d'un cartel mexicain. Industrie lourde (464 tonnes de cocaïne exportées de Colombie en 1999, 135 000 hectares plantés en coca, pavot et cannabis dans ce pays) milliards de dollars et incroyable sauvagerie : les cartels de la drogue sont célèbres mais peu connus. Deux experts étudient et analysent la forme criminelle du cartel de la drogue latino-américain : organisation, évolutions, chiffres-clés ... Texte de couverture
