Global Inequalities
Globalization is characterized by a systemic interconnection in which what hapInequality has been on the rise across the globe and living conditions are vastly unequal between different places in the world. Currently, the richest 1% own 45% of the world’s wealth. The consequence is that some people are able to enjoy healthy, wealthy, happy lives whilst others continue to live in ill-health, poverty and sorrow. Rapid economic growth in Asia (particularly China and India) has lifted many people out of extreme poverty. Nevertheless, the wealth divide is steadily growing. According to Oxfam, between 2009 and 2018, the number of billionaires it took to equal the wealth of the world’s poorest ...
Política social en tiempos de la Cuarta Transformación. Continuidad o cambio de paradigma
En este libro se analizan los desafíos que enfrenta la Nueva Política Social en México en materia de pobreza, desigualdad y movilidad social, en el contexto donde la economía y específicamente los mercados de trabajo se han reestructurado en un sentido donde se reducen las fuentes de empleos y se deterioran las condiciones laborales, limitando las oportunidades, principalmente de la población más vulnerable. En este sentido, se cuestiona el papel de la nueva política social más allá de las evaluaciones, en una perspectiva transformadora del contexto actual de pobreza y desigualdad que prevalece en México, tomando en cuenta las limitaciones que este cambio de paradigma en las políticas públicas enfrentará para alcanzar resultados que contribuyan a impulsar la movilidad social.

Seguridad alimentaria, seguridad nacional
A partir de la posrevolución se aplicaron en México diversas estrategias de desarrollo que si bien tuvieron como prioridad alcanzar la justicia social, la realidad demostró que la brecha de la desigualdad pareciera no tener fin. Al contrario, lejos de tener éxito, dichas estrategias incrementaron la pobreza y el número de afectados en niveles sin precedentes, sometiendo a un estado de vulnerabilidad incluso a las capas medias de la población, que antes fueron ejemplo de movilidad social ascendente para mejorar su nivel de vida.
Capitalismo social
Este libro surge al reconocer que, aunque se habla constantemente de la cultura y el legado del empresariado regiomontano, no se contaba con una obra referencial que lo explicara en retrospectiva. Al abordar el tema desde los propios documentos de los empresarios, se considera que el mayor legado del empresariado mexicano del siglo XX fue un modelo de Capitalismo Social, que buscó al mismo tiempo la prosperidad económica y el bienestar general.
Memoirs of Pancho Villa
“A frequently fascinating and probably fairly accurate insight into the most controversial character of the Mexican Revolution.” —Time Martín Luis Guzmán, eminent historian of Mexico, knew and traveled with Pancho Villa at various times during the Revolution. When many years later some of Villa’s private papers, records, and what was apparently the beginning of an autobiography came into Guzmán’s hands, he was ideally suited to blend all these into an authentic account of the Revolution as Pancho Villa saw it, and of the General’s life as known only to Villa himself. This is Villa’s story, his account of how it all began when as a peasant boy of sixteen he shot a rich landow...
Recommendation on Social Protection Floors
Despite the international community’s recognition of social protection as a human right, the vast majority of the world’s population still has no access to social protection. In a major effort to address this situation, the International Labour Conference unanimously adopted the Social Protection Floors Recommendation 202 of 2012. However, because of the wide variety of possible schemes (and techniques that can be employed to administer them), there is a genuine risk that important values relating to social protection will be overlooked in implementing the Recommendation. This collection of expert essays contains an in-depth clarification and analysis of the Recommendation and sets forth...
