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.
"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."

The right to education has been violated by the extinction of alimony for young people who have reached 21 years of age and are in higher education. So this research is aimed at the problem in order to raise a proposal that makes a solution viable. The research line applied in the realization of this paper is “Challenges, Perspectives and Improvement of Legal Sciences in Ecuador”. The results that are pursued with this investigation is promote good compliance with the constitutional norms of Ecuador and avoid the violation of human rights. For this, the technique known as neutrosophic AHP was applied. This is a variant of the numerical AHP designed by Saaty, which by incorporating the neutrosophic sets, the uncertainty of decision-making is taken into account, in addition to the calculation with linguistic terms and the inclusion of indeterminacy. This technique will be applied to choose between two alternatives: the convenience or not of maintaining alimony in active students over the age of 21. This analysis is complicated due to the variables to be analyzed, which is why the versatility of the chosen mathematical technique is validated.

Mudejarismo and Moorish Revival in Europe examines key aspects related to the reception of Ibero-Islamic architecture in medieval Iberia and 19th-century Europe. It challenges prevalent readings of architecture and interiors whose creation was the result of cultural encounters. As Mudéjar and neo-Moorish architecture are closely connected to the Islamic world, concepts of identity, nationalism, religious and ethnic belonging, as well as Orientalism and Islamoscepticism significantly shaped the way in which they have been perceived over time. This volume offers art historical and socio-cultural analysis of selected case studies from Spain to Russia and opens the door to a better understanding of interconnected cultural and artistic phenomena. Contributors are (in order of appearance) Francine Giese, Ariane Varela Braga, Michael A. Conrad, Katrin Kaufmann, Sarah Keller, Elena Paulino Montero, Luis Araus Ballesteros, Ekaterina Savinova, Christian Schweizer, Alejandro Jiménez Hernández and Laura Álvarez Acosta.
'NDiaye is a hypnotic storyteller with an unflinching understanding of the rock-bottom reality of most people's life.' New York Times ' One of France's most exciting prose stylists.' The Guardian. Obsessed by her encounters with the mysterious green women, and haunted by the Garonne River, a nameless narrator seeks them out in La Roele, Paris, Marseille, and Ouagadougou. Each encounter reveals different aspects of the women; real or imagined, dead or alive, seductive or suicidal, driving the narrator deeper into her obsession, in this unsettling exploration of identity, memory and paranoia. Self Portrait in Green is the multi-prize winning, Marie NDiaye's brilliant subversion of the memoir. Written in diary entries, with lyrical prose and dreamlike imagery, we start with and return to the river, which mirrors the narrative by posing more questions than it answers.
