Esta obra tiene como objetivo presentar un panorama integral y abarcador sobre el estado de la protección jurídico-política de los animales en Colombia. El Estado colombiano atraviesa por un periodo de transformación institucional y sociojurídica. El otrora difundido modelo de relación entre el ordenamiento jurídico y los animales como cosas o simples elementos del medio ambiente está siendo reevaluado y surge así todo un conjunto de problemáticas que han de ser abordadas a partir de nuevos enfoques y perspectivas. Este libro se centra en temas como el de delitos y contravenciones, el uso de animales para el consumo humano, la investigación y experimentación con animales, el uso de animales con fines securitarios, el desarrollo de políticas públicas y su interrelación con movimientos de la sociedad civil, primero desde un plano analítico y después contextualizado en distintas ciudades de Colombia.

This intriguing study of Mexico's participation in world's fairs from 1889 to 1929 explores Mexico's self-presentation at these fairs as a reflection of the country's drive toward nationalization and a modernized image. Mauricio Tenorio-Trillo contrasts Mexico's presence at the 1889 Paris fair—where its display was the largest and most expensive Mexico has ever mounted—with Mexico's presence after the 1910 Mexican Revolution at fairs in Rio de Janeiro in 1922 and Seville in 1929. Rather than seeing the revolution as a sharp break, Tenorio-Trillo points to important continuities between the pre- and post-revolution periods.
