La buena voluntad : el vínculo de jóvenes argentinxs con la política, entre dos paradigmas de Estado
Desde la pulverización de una generación revolucionaria, pasando por Malvinas y Cromañón, así como la cotidianeidad de persecución, hostigamiento y asesinato por la bala policial, la muerte ha recorrido y recorre la experiencia de las juventudes argentinas. También la recorre la vida. Estas páginas se suben a ese vuelo de tantas y tantos jóvenes que día tras día sueñan y construyen un país Eros. Entonces, la investigación y la escritura coral se vuelven potencia e invitan a seguir creando.Es posible que cuando pasen los años y miremos y nos miremos en retrospectiva nos parezca imposible asumir que pudimos hacer tanto aún en la excepcionalidad pandémica. Este proyecto colectivo es, entonces, la muestra de que somos capaces de tejer luz aún en tiempos oscuros, probándonos que el aislamiento social preventivo que soportamos por varios meses del 2020 no confinó nuestros deseos y pasiones. Del Prólogo de Andrea Bonvillani.
Martin Waldseemüller’s 'Carta marina' of 1516
This open access book presents the first detailed study of one of the most important masterpieces of Renaissance cartography, Martin Waldseemüller’s Carta marina of 1516. By transcribing, translating into English, and detailing the sources of all of the descriptive texts on the map, as well as the sources of many of the images, the book makes the map available to scholars in a wholly unprecedented way. In addition, the book provides revealing insights into how Waldseemüller went about making the map -- information that can’t be found in any other source. The Carta marina is the result of Waldseemüller’s radical re-evaluation of what a world map should be; he essentially started from scratch when he created it, rejecting the Ptolemaic model and other sources he had used in creating his 1507 map, and added more descriptive texts and a wealth of illustrations. Given its content, the book offers an essential reference work not only on this map, but also for anyone working in sixteenth-century European cartography.
A imprensa confiscada pelo DEOPS, 1924-1954
Muitos jornais de militância política foram proibidos de circular pelo extinto Departamento de Ordem Política e Social de São Paulo. Neste livro, estão reunidas as publicações confiscadas por esse órgão entre 1924 e 1954. Esses registros, agora públicos, mostram de que maneira cada governo do período vigiou e reprimiu a livre expressão de ideias. Os documentos revelam, assim, as estratégias de censura adotadas pelas autoridades políticas para construir sua própria versão da história.

Method in Social Science
Widely praised on its first publication, this second edition directly reflects new developments in the areas of philosophy and method.
The Macroeconomics of Populism in Latin America
Again and again, Latin America has seen the populist scenario played to an unfortunate end. Upon gaining power, populist governments attempt to revive the economy through massive spending. After an initial recovery, inflation reemerges and the government responds with wage an price controls. Shortages, overvaluation, burgeoning deficits, and capital flight soon precipitate economic crisis, with a subsequent collapse of the populist regime. The lessons of this experience are especially valuable for countries in Eastern Europe, as they face major political and economic decisions. Economists and political scientists from the United States and Latin America detail in this volume how and why such...
Encyclopedia of Law and Economics
Law and Economics deals with the economic analysis of legal relations, legal provisions, laws and regulations and is a research field which has a long tradition in economics. It was lost after the expulsion of some of the leading economists from Germany during 1933 to 1938, but then revived in Chicago. Both the subject of Law of Economics and the need for a concise Encyclopedia is particularly relevant in Europe today. Currently in the European Union there are several different legal cultures: the Anglo-Saxon legal framework, the German legal framework, which for example also includes Greece, and the Roman legal family—three jurisdictions which have to be covered with one and the same theo...
Trade Flows, Multilateral Resistance, and Firm Heterogeneity
We present a gravity model that accounts for multilateral resistance, firm heterogeneity and country-selection into trade, while accommodating asymmetries in trade flows. A new equation for the proportion of exporting firms takes a gravity form, such that the extensive margin is also affected by multilateral resistance. We develop Taylor approximated multilateral resistance terms with which to capture the comparative static effects of changes in trade costs. For isolated bilateral changes in trade frictions, multilateral resistance effects are small for most countries. However, if all countries reduce their trade frictions, the impact of multilateral resistance is so strong that bilateral trade falls in most cases, despite the larger trade elasticities implied by firm heterogeneity. As a consequence, the world-wide trade response, though positive, is much lower.
Poverty Reduction for Inclusive Sustainable Growth in Developing Asia
This book provides practical policy recommendations that are useful for developing Asia and for accelerating poverty reduction plans in the rest of the world. Poverty reduction in all its forms remains one of the greatest challenges facing humanity. In developing Asia, rapid growth in countries and sub-regions such as China, India, and Southeast Asia has lifted millions out of poverty, but progress has been uneven. On the other hand, the current coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic and the global economic recession that it has caused are pushing millions of people back into poverty. Poverty reduction, inclusive growth, and sustainable development are inseparable, and poverty reduction is the prem...
Recreation in the Renaissance
In Renaissance Europe, when 'leisure classes' used social gathering to define civility and the commercialization of leisure was beginning, the human need for recreation became a cultural topos. The book explores the vocabulary of play and games; the spectrum of leisure activities, often gender-specific or appropriate to particular social groups; the medical discourse on the preservation of health, where amusements were assessed as physical exercise; the moral approach to play; legal treatises on gambling; and the visual representation of leisure.
