Una mirada desde Mesoamérica.
Las migraciones a través del corredor Centroamérica-México-Estados Unidos tienen una larga historia: sin embargo, en años recientes han adquirido nuevos patrones y características que requieren de un diálogo regional para su comprensión. En el escenario actual, destacan: los momentos de alta migración asociados a violencias y la persistencia de condiciones precarias de vida en los lugares de origen, la activación de “in/movilidades” en el tránsito o en el asentamiento en territorio mexicano, una mayor diversidad de países de origen y de perfiles sociodemográficos de las personas en movimiento, junto a la puesta en marcha de planes, programas y acciones coyunturales para el co...
Crisis y Migración Nuevas movilidades ante un mundo convulso
En los siguientes tres años crecerá el debate nacional sobre el futuro de México, sobre la urgencia del cambio en todas sus instituciones, la clase política, la normatividad y los mecanismos de participación democrática que garanticen que la mayoría de la población recupere el control de la soberanía nacional, de su territorio, de su política económica, de su moneda, de las políticas sectoriales y regionales, capaces de la generación masiva de millones de empleos, de bienestar y seguridad humana para toda la población, erradicando la economía de la muerte y las violencias estructurales del sistema y las organizaciones criminales que hoy ahogan a todo el país y subordinan a bu...

Surviving Sudden Environmental Change
Archaeologists have long encountered evidence of natural disasters through excavation and stratigraphy. In Surviving Sudden Environmental Change, case studies examine how eight different past human communities—ranging from Arctic to equatorial regions, from tropical rainforests to desert interiors, and from deep prehistory to living memory—faced, and coped with, such dangers. Many disasters originate from a force of nature, such as an earthquake, cyclone, tsunami, volcanic eruption, drought, or flood. But that is only half of the story; decisions of people and their particular cultural lifeways are the rest. Sociocultural factors are essential in understanding risk, impact, resilience, reactions, and recoveries from massive sudden environmental changes. By using deep-time perspectives provided by interdisciplinary approaches, this book provides a rich temporal background to the human experience of environmental hazards and disasters. In addition, each chapter is followed by an abstract summarizing the important implications for today’s management practices and providing recommendations for policy makers. Publication supported in part by the National Science Foundation.

Hybrid Zones and the Evolutionary Process
Hybrid zones--geographical areas in which the hybrids of two races are found--have attracted the attention of evolutionary biologists for many years, both because they are windows on the evolutionary process and because the patterns of animals and plant variation seen in hybrid zones do notfit the traditional classification schemes of taxonomists. Hybrid zones provide insights into the nature of the species, the way barriers to gene exchange function, the genetic basis of those barriers, the dynamics of the speciation process. Hybrid Zones and the Evolutionary Process synthesizes theextensive research literature in this field and points to new directions in research. It will be read with interest by evolutionary biologists, geneticists, and biogeographers.
Pollution of Water Bodies in Latin America
The indiscriminate use of chemical substances in industrial processes and anthropogenic activities, have resulted in the release of these compounds into aquatic ecosystems through municipal, hospital and industrial discharges, producing various undesired effects on the environment and on species of ecological interest. These compounds, such as metals, pesticides, emerging pollutants and other substances are persistent and susceptible to biotic and/or abiotic transformations, yielding metabolites that can be more toxic than the original compounds. In this book, researchers from diverse environmental science disciplines share their experiences in countries such as Argentina, Brazil, Colombia and Mexico, and critically examine the problem of contaminants in aquatic ecosystems in Latin America, as well as the risks presented by their presence.
