¿Aplaudir o cuestionar a los poderosos? El corazón de las ciencias sociales late al ritmo de ese enigma todavía irresuelto. Las corrientes que se dedican a legitimar las injusticias "normales", aceptan solo una agenda de problemas, un repertorio limitado de categorías y una lista estricta de fuentes confiables. Con arrogancia, pretenden monopolizar el "pensamiento contemporáneo". Quienes no acepten trabajar para las grandes fundaciones y ONGs que inundan con dineros sucios nuestro campo cultural y político, quedan automáticamente fuera de "lo contemporáneo". La cooptación parece ineluctable. El mundo del trabajo y sus organizaciones deben agachar la cabeza. ¿Será cierto? Para resp...
The steroid scaffold continues to be the structural basis of new drugs for a variety of targets and diseases. Indeed, steroids interact with enzymes and receptors in a strikingly specific manner. Chemistry and Biological Activity of Steroids aims to provide an updated overview of recent advances in the medicinal chemistry of steroids. Novel synthetic methods in the steroids field, including steroid biotransformations, new steroids able to tackle steroid receptors, and steroid enzymes with clinical relevance, are critically reviewed in this book. Furthermore, the diverse physiopathological roles of oxysterols and their therapeutic value are also discussed.
This book provides an overview of newly gathered material focusing on the opening and closure of The Neuquén Basin. The Neuquén Basin contains the most important hydrocarbon reservoirs in Argentina and therefore is characterized by a profound knowledge of the sedimentation mechanisms and closure times. During the last 10 years a considerable amount of new information has been produced that illustrates a complex evolution that involves more than one synrift stage during its evolution, an aborted sag phase associated with the inception of a first foreland basin in late Early Cretaceous times, two extensional destabilizations in the Late Cretaceous-Paleocene and late Oligocene times and a Neogene magmatic expansion coetaneous to a last mountain building. These processes have produced a polyphasic complex structure that exhumed the rich sedimentary record that characterizes the basin.

El cine español contemporáneo (1990-2005) dedica mucha atención a la rememoración del pasado (Segunda República, la Guerra Civil, el período franquista,¿) y la realidad social (el paro, la violencia doméstica, inmigración, eutanasia,¿). Directores renombrados como Pedro Almodóvar, Alejandro Amenábar, Fernando León de Aranoa, Icíar Bollaín, o Isabel Coixet, muestran este interés dentro de sus miradas cinematográficas. La gran popularidad de este cine ha estimulado su migración en pantallas ajenas y dentro de contextos universitarios nacionales e internacionales. Este libro reúne unos veinte artículos, de investigadores americanos y europeos, que ilustran las múltiples tradiciones culturales en vigor dentro de los estudios cinematográficos, y que se enfocan al mismo tiempo en el tema central del libro: ¿Cómo se puede leer, la mirada de los autores españoles, sobre el pasado y el presente, dentro del contexto de su cine nacional?
Detailed attention to compliance with labour and employment laws is crucial for success in setting up business in a foreign country. This book – one of a series derived from Kluwer’s matchless publication International Labour and Employment Compliance Handbook – focuses on the relevant laws and regulations in Argentina. It is thoroughly practical in orientation. Employers and their counsel can be assured that it fulfills the need for accurate and detailed knowledge of laws in Argentina on all aspects of employment, from recruiting to termination, working conditions, compensation and benefits to collective bargaining. The volume proceeds in a logical sequence through such topics as the ...
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 4th International Workshop on Ambient Assisted Living, IWAAL 2012, held in Vitoria-Gasteiz, Spain, in December 2012. The 58 research papers were carefully reviewed and selected from various submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections such as intelligent healthcare and home-care environments, AAL environments, sensing and monitoring, human-computer interaction at assistive environments, semantic modeling for realizing AAL, and application domains.
