"El pensamiento jurídico moderno, al adentrarse en las ideas del llamado Derecho Público, no puede trascender a la interpretación iurispublicística, ya sea en clave liberal o en clave democrática, de la recepción de las instituciones, ideas y legislaciones que la determinan y expresan. Dentro de estas concepciones hay que destacar aquellas que sostienen, desde el romanismo, que entre los principios de una república democrática perfectible, está la participación ciudadana en la formación de la voluntad estatal. Esta obra monográfica se centra en la argumentación de una adecuada construcción teórica de la recepción de los principios del Derecho Público Romano en Cuba, para con...
"Los principios jurídicos: un estudio crítico y propositivo, es un libro que responde a un cuidadoso plan metodológico que viene a señalar, acertadamente, el camino para desplegar los contenidos esenciales que abarca, apoyado en un buen conocimiento de la teoría y la filosofía del Derecho y de la práctica jurídica que ha tenido González Monzón como juez cubano, posición más que idónea para pulsar la realidad de las cosas que estudia. La estructura del texto se traza en dos grandes segmentos, ambos con sustancia y sentido propios, pero que deben verse articulados indisolublemente si se quiere comprender a cabalidad todo el estudio que nos propone su autor, en particular el lienzo...

The early days when digital games were new, harmless, and a niche are long gone. Today's games can simulate battlefields, predict disaster, and crash markets. We are faced with a diversity of play and the ubiquity of games, making them not only a popular medium, but the leading medium of our contemporary society. Based on the keynote lectures held at DiGRA2015, "Diversity of Play" provides a critical view on the current stage of digital games from a theoretic, artistic, and practical perspective by pointing towards the uncanny, the power of "unnatural" narratives, and the exceptions and uncertainties of digital ludic environments. With an interview with Karen Palmer and essays by Astrid Ensslin, Mathias Fuchs, Tanya Krzywinska, and Markus Rautzenberg.

In recent years, the study of unnatural narratives has become an exciting new but still disparate research program in narrative theory. For the first time, this collection of essays presents and discusses the new analytical tools that have so far been developed on the basis of unnatural novels, short stories, and plays and extends these findings through analyses of testimonies, comics, graphic novels, films, and oral narratives. Many narratives do not only mimetically reproduce the world as we know it but confront us with strange narrative worlds which rely on principles that have very little to do with the actual world around us. The essays in this collection develop new narratological tools and modeling systems which are designed to capture the strangeness and extravagance of such anti-realist narratives. Taken together, the essays offer a systematic investigation of anti-mimetic techniques and strategies that relate to different narrative parameters, different media, and different periods within literary history.
