La ambición de este proyecto editorial, es ofrecer un mosaico de perspectivas que, en su conjunto, permiten apreciar la riqueza y complejidad del derecho en su interacción con disciplinas concomitantes. En sus páginas, se tejen finas narrativas que dialogan con la economía, la ética, la política y la tecnología, dibujando un horizonte jurídico que trasciende las barreras de lo puramente normativo para asentarse en el terreno de lo humano y palpable.
La diversidad y profundidad de los tópicos abordados revelan el alcance y la relevancia contemporánea del derecho en un contexto globalizado y en constante cambio. Desde la intersección entre neurociencia y derecho penal hasta el papel de la inteligencia artificial en la lucha contra la criminalidad organizada, estas páginas desvelan la interrelación inextricable entre disciplinas aparentemente dispares, demostrando la imperiosa necesidad de un enfoque interdisciplinario en la resolución de los desafíos legales del siglo XXI.
Recorrer las páginas de la historia penitenciaria de Colombia es desentrañar una compleja maraña donde se entretejen el poder, la ley y la soberanía. Este libro surge como un esfuerzo del autor por explorar las profundidades de la presencia estatal en las colonias penales, esos lugares que, situados en la periferia física y social, reflejan las tensiones y las contradicciones del proyecto nacional.
Roving vigilantes, fear-mongering politicians, hysterical pundits, and the looming shadow of a seven hundred-mile-long fence: the US–Mexican border is one of the most complex and dynamic areas on the planet today. Hyperborder provides the most nuanced portrait yet of this dynamic region. Author Fernando Romero presents a multidisciplinary perspective informed by interviews with numerous academics, researchers, and organizations. Provocatively designed in the style of other kinetic large-scale studies like Rem Koolhaas's Content and Bruce Mau’s Massive Change, Hyperborder is an exhaustively researched report from the front lines of the border debate.
Esta obra presenta una visión amplia y detallada, pero a la vez crítica y propositiva, sobre los retos que enfrenta el Estado colombiano ante la crisis humanitaria de sus centros carcelarios y penitenciarios. También destaca los esfuerzos de la Corte Constitucional para enfrentar ciertos problemas estructurales que han causado graves violaciones a los derechos fundamentales de miles de personas privadas de su libertad. Los textos aquí reunidos, escritos por diversos juristas latinoamericanos, proponen un viraje hacia un modelo integral de organización política, social y jurídica; resaltan las obligaciones de todo el sistema de Estado; y promueven la construcción de una política criminal de corte humanitario y garantista. De este modo, se ofrece una herramienta útil para la implementación de un modelo que disminuya las conductas criminales, que no impacte de forma negativa las condiciones de reclusión, y que reduzca el hacinamiento carcelario.

The definitive account of the disappearance of forty-three Mexican students On September 26, 2014, a party of students from the Ayotzinapa Rural Teachers’ College were en route to a protest when intercepted by local police. A confrontation ensued. Come the morning, the students were nowhere to be found. The crime that had transpired and the resultant cover-up brought the profound depths of corruption in the Mexican government and police force—as well as the vulnerability of ordinary Mexicans—into stark relief.

Margit is at the point in life when things should have cohered. She's married, she's got a degree, she's got friends who throw good parties, and yet she's still adrift, moving from one precarious job to the next. One day, a picture of some Mexican students catches her eye in a newspaper. The group of 43 had been ambushed by police in 2014 while travelling on a bus and disappeared without a trace. And so begins Margit's obsession with the 'desaparecidos'. As she heads off down the rabbit holes and cul-de-sacs of Google Maps, her idiosyncratic quest to uncover the truth of what happened begins to eclipse pretty much everything else. From a sharp and singular new literary voice, this is a novel that captures the texture of life in a frictionless city with drop-pin accuracy, while asking: is it possible to recover what is lost without losing oneself?
