Rebuilding the State Institutions
Contemporary Mexico faces a complex crisis of violence and insecurity with high levels of impunity and the lack of an effective rule of law. These weaknesses in the rule of law are multidimensional and involve elements of institutional design, the specific content of the laws, particularities of political competition and a culture of legality in a country with severe social inequalities. This book discusses necessary institutional and legal reforms to develop the rule of law in a context of democratic, social and economic transformations. The chapters are organized to address: 1) The concept of the ‘rule of law’ and its measurement; 2) The fragility of the ‘rule of law’ in Mexico; 3)...

La epistemología del procedimiento penal acusatorio y oral.
Este libro tiene por objeto de investigación el procedimiento penal acusatorio y oral, desde una perspectiva normativa, analítica y empírica. Normativa, porque parte de las normas fundamentales —derechos, principios, garantías— constitucionales, convencionales y procesales, así como de la interpretación jurisprudencial. Analítica, porque se refiere a la estructura procedimental para culminar con un juicio —sentencia—. Empírica, porque si bien parte de lo teórico y normativo, se complementa con lo que en realidad sucede en la tramitación de un procedimiento penal, tanto de tipo mixto como acusatorio, imprimiendo en todo ello la experiencia obtenida en la larga trayectoria pr...
Derechos humanos. Un camino hacia la pacificación
Desde el punto de vista jurídico, se puede considerar que existe la fractura de un paradigma respecto los derechos humanos. Qué la ha generado: a) la globalización; b) el control de convencionalidad; c) la pérdida de valores que conlleva la modernidad, y d) su incidencia directa en la persona. Esto ha impactado de manera directa en los derechos humanos, ya que, si queremos que funcionen como un primer paso, todos sin distingo tenemos que cambiar de actitud y verlos como algo esencial. La dignidad humana es su columna vertebral. De ella se desprende el respeto, y de él los valores; los mismos que podemos empezar a hacer que funcionen desde el núcleo familiar, como estructura primaria de...

Diccionario de Derecho Procesal Constitucional y Convencional, tercera edición, 1001 voces
Esta obra reúne el esfuerzo conjunto de 390 autoras y autores de 26 nacionalidades alrededor del mundo, lo que permite una visión integral de la ciencia del Derecho Procesal Constitucional, desde distintas latitudes. Está dirigida a las nuevas y futuras generaciones de estudiosos de la materia, a las y los estudiantes, profesores, abogados, jueces y, en general, a los operadores jurídicos que a través de su labor coadyuvan a la eficacia de los derechos humanos y al fortalecimiento de la democracia y el Estado constitucional de derecho. Al encontrarnos en el marco del centenario del Primer Tribunal Constitucional de Austria de 1920, que tuvo una amplía influencia en nuestro continente y que significó un punto de partida científico dentro de la entonces nueva disciplina denominada Derecho Procesal Constitucional, este resulta un momento inmejorable para su publicación, pues nos invita a la discusión progresiva sobre los desafíos que enfrentan actualmente las magistraturas constitucionales especializadas en materia de derechos humanos, así como en su tarea de la defensa de la Constitución, bajo el paradigma del Derecho Internacional de los Derechos Humanos.

Imperial Portugal in the Age of Atlantic Revolutions
As the British, French and Spanish Atlantic empires were torn apart in the Age of Revolutions, Portugal steadily pursued reforms to tie its American, African and European territories more closely together. Eventually, after a period of revival and prosperity, the Luso-Brazilian world also succumbed to revolution, which ultimately resulted in Brazil's independence from Portugal. The first of its kind in the English language to examine the Portuguese Atlantic World in the period from 1750 to 1850, this book reveals that despite formal separation, the links and relationships that survived the demise of empire entwined the historical trajectories of Portugal and Brazil even more tightly than before. From constitutionalism to economic policy to the problem of slavery, Portuguese and Brazilian statesmen and political writers laboured under the long shadow of empire as they sought to begin anew and forge stable post-imperial orders on both sides of the Atlantic.
Animal Lives Worth Living
The main theme of this year's congress is 'Animal lives worth living'. This theme focuses on our responsibility for all animals kept or influenced by humans, to ensure that we can provide a life for them that takes into account all relevant aspects of animal welfare, aided by applied ethology as the key scientific discipline. This not only means avoiding and alleviating suffering but also promoting resilience and positive experiences. By monitoring and interpreting animal behaviour, we gain important insights into each of these aspects of quality of life.
