Aciertos y desaciertos en la protección de los derechos económicos sociales y culturales en la pandemia e insumos claves para su reformulación en la pospandemia
La pandemia retó a la humanidad en todos los sentidos, pues influyó directamente en el entorno social, político y económico, al tener tantas vertientes como la estructura social misma. La pandemia nos puso en estado de conflicto, pues el mundo se ha paralizó para hacer frente a una problemática común, el coronavirus, covid-19. Partiendo de ese escenario ciertamente hostil, sobre la marcha se ha tenido que adaptar los sistemas existentes para sobrevivir, trabajando para fortalecerlos y creando lo necesario para reconstruir, pues las condiciones de países como Colombia, ya precarias, se han visto aún más disminuidas en lo que respecta a garantizar los derechos.

Beekeeping is a sixteen-billion-dollar-a-year business.

Kritsky guides us through the prog...

Unleashing Growth and Strengthening Resilience in the Caribbean
This book provides a diagnosis of the central economic and financial challenges facing Caribbean policymakers and offers broad policy recommendations for promoting a sustained and inclusive increase in economic well-being. The analysis highlights the need for Caribbean economies to make a concerted effort to break the feedback loops between weak macroeconomic fundamentals, notably pertaining to fiscal positions and financial sector strains, and structural impediments, such as high electricity costs, limited financial deepening, violent crime, and brain drain, which have depressed private investment and growth. A recurring theme in the book is the need for greater regional coordination in fin...
