Manual de derecho urbano
Desde 1997, cuando fuera aprobada la Ley de desarrollo territorial, el país ha acumulado muchas experiencias sobre las reglas que rigen el espacio urbano, sus finalidades y posibilidades. Hoy, el derecho urbano es una realidad, tal como lo muestra una década de formación de especialistas en la Universidad del Rosario y los múltiples debates judiciales en torno a la problemática urbana y su marco regulatorio. A veinte años del nuevo marco jurídico y diez de formación continua de especialistas en el país, la Especialización de Derecho Urbano y su cuerpo docente se propuso materializar la experiencia acumulada en este Manual de derecho urbano con el fin de contribuir a la formación d...

Housing Policy in Latin American Cities
After the 1960s, rapid urbanization in developing regions in Latin America, Africa, and Asia was marked by the expansion of low-income "irregular" settlements that developed informally and which, by the 2000s, often constituted between 20-60 percent of the built-up area of metropolitan areas and other large cities. There has been a variety of research directed at the housing policies involved with these informal settlements, yet apart from the activities of Latin American Housing Network (LAHN), there has been minimal attention directed at the earliest portion of settlements that formed some 25-40 years ago that now form a large part of the intermediate ring of the cities. This volume breaks...
The Shaman's Apprentice
In a Tirio village deep in the heart of the Amazon rain forest, the shaman Nahtahlah has a place of honor in his tribe. Young Kamanya wants to learn the healing secrets of the forest plants--he hopes that he, too, will become the tribe’s shaman, so that he can cure his people. When the villagers fall sick with an illness that Nahtahlah cannot cure, many lose faith in the shaman’s wisdom--until a foreign woman helps them understand its value while giving Kamanya an opportunity to realize his dream. Lynne Cherry returns to the rain forest with ethnobotanist Mark J. Plotkin to tell an important story about the healing plants of the earth-and why we must protect them.
