Living Anarchism
"Magnificent."—Paul Preston, author of The Spanish Holocaust Brick maker by trade, revolutionary anarchist and historian by default; this is a study of the life of José Peirats (1908–1989) and the labor union that gave him life, the CNT. It is the biography of an individual but also of a collective agent—the working class Peirats was born into—and the affective ties of kinship, friendship, and community that cemented into a movement, the most powerful of its type in the world. Chris Ealham is the author of Anarchism and the City: Revolution and Counter-revolution in Barcelona, 1898–1937.
Manual de historia del derecho. Tomo II
Esta obra, dividida en seis tomos, desarrolla la historia del derecho en Guatemala desde una visión analítica del jurista, es decir, a través de una lectura crítica de las normas jurídicas decretadas en el país en relación con el contexto histórico (estructuras sociales, políticas y económicas) y los procesos específicos circundantes al momento de su emisión. Este segundo tomo abarca el derecho castellano hasta el origen y la formación de los reinos españoles; así como el derecho castellano en América; los antecedentes del derecho indiano; el derecho precolombino y sus bases jurídicas hasta llegar al régimen liberal guatemalteco.

Defending the Land of the Jaguar
Mexican conservationists have sometimes observed that it is difficult to find a country less interested in the conservation of its natural resources than is Mexico. Yet, despite a long history dedicated to the pursuit of development regardless of its environmental consequences, Mexico has an equally long, though much less developed and appreciated, tradition of environmental conservation. Lane Simonian here offers the first panoramic history of conservation in Mexico from pre-contact times to the current Mexican environmental movement. He explores the origins of conservation and environmental concerns in Mexico, the philosophies and endeavors of Mexican conservationists, and the enactment of important conservation laws and programs. This heretofore untold story, drawn from interviews with leading Mexican conservationists as well as archival research, will be important reading throughout the international community of activists, researchers, and concerned citizens interested in the intertwined issues of conservation and development.
