The Ultra Vires Doctrine in Corporate Law
This book offers a comparative review of the ultra vires doctrine in corporate law. Divided into three main sections, it first provides a brief overview of the historical background and the scope of the ultra vires doctrine. It then analyses the essential features of the doctrine in the common law and civil law traditions across the Western world. Lastly, the book examines the objects clause, procedural aspects, and the mechanism of ratification of such ultra vires acts. The book's comparative approach and global contextualization of the subject matter will be of interest to readers from around the globe, familiarizing them with legal provisions, case law, and recent literature. Although it is primarily intended for scholars in the area of corporate law, it is also a valuable resource for professionals in the field of commercial law who deal with issues related to the capacity of firms and the powers of their directors.
Hyperborder
Roving vigilantes, fear-mongering politicians, hysterical pundits, and the looming shadow of a seven hundred-mile-long fence: the US–Mexican border is one of the most complex and dynamic areas on the planet today. Hyperborder provides the most nuanced portrait yet of this dynamic region. Author Fernando Romero presents a multidisciplinary perspective informed by interviews with numerous academics, researchers, and organizations. Provocatively designed in the style of other kinetic large-scale studies like Rem Koolhaas's Content and Bruce Mau’s Massive Change, Hyperborder is an exhaustively researched report from the front lines of the border debate.
Balance y desafíos del estado regulador, supervisor, promotor y empresario. Tomo III
Pese al dictado de la teoría económica clásica, que caracteriza la intervención del Estado en la economía como puramente correctiva, la experiencia nos muestra que el gran objetivo del bienestar común precisa de acciones públicas más allá de su foco en las fallas del mercado. En no pocas ocasiones, por diversas razones, la acción directa de la Administración en los mercados como un agente económico más cobra una importancia inusitada. La Administración Pública se despoja en estos eventos de su manto de autoridad y de su tradicional papel de regulador y supervisor del mercado para asumir un papel activo en el circuito económico. El presente tomo estudia esta realidad. En él s...
Urban Policy in the Framework of the 2030 Agenda
The book provides comparative information about the materialization of the 2030 Agenda in urban policy in ten countries located in Europe and Latin America. The Declaration of Quito is the starting point for the implementation of SDGs into public policies in urban areas. However, there are fewer efforts to understand the impact that the 2030 Agenda and, specifically, the instruments developed for its application in cities. The information of each country is presented in relation to two aspects: the construction of a public policy style in each country and the results and impacts on urban public policies implemented in specific cities within the national frameworks. The first means the emerge...
Javier Sicila: Las víctimas reclaman paz (Magis 423)
En la portada de este número aparece el poeta Javier Sicilia, un símbolo de un movimiento social que ha puesto a las víctimas de la guerra contra el crimen organizado en el centro del debate. Presentamos una crónica de Daniela Pastrana que caminó con el colectivo y nos cuenta quince momentos clave del Movimiento por la Paz con Justicia y Dignidad, así como dos opiniones contrastadas sobre la decisión de Sicilia de dialogar con el gobierno federal. Además, publicamos una entrevista con la escritora Lolita Bosch, impulsora del portal de internet Nuestra Aparente Rendición, un espacio de reflexión ciudadana sobre la violencia. Lo que empezó como un sencillo ejercicio entre escritores se ha convertido en un espacio ciudadano en el que confluyen numerosas iniciativas que van tejiendo, poco a poco, alternativas de visibilización de las víctimas de la guerra. Magis se propone como un espacio para la reflexión, la crítica y el debate sobre la responsabilidad que tenemos los profesionales con esta realidad. Esperamos que este número contribuya a este desafío.
Compañeros
Telling the affecting stories of eighty gay, bisexual, and transgender (GBT) Latino activists and volunteers living in Chicago and San Francisco, Compañeros: Latino Activists in the Face of AIDS closely details how these individuals have been touched or transformed by the AIDS epidemic. Weaving together activists' responses to oppression and stigma, their encounters with AIDS, and their experiences as GBTs and Latinos in North America and Latin America, Jesus Ramirez-Valles explores the intersection of civic involvement with ethnic and sexual identity. Even as activists battle multiple sources of oppression, they are able to restore their sense of family connection and self-esteem through the creation of an alternative space in which community members find value in their relationships with one another. In demonstrating the transformative effects of a nurturing community environment for GBT Latinos affected by the AIDS epidemic, Ramirez-Valles illustrates that members find support in one another, as compañeros, in their struggles with homophobia, gender discrimination, racism, poverty, and forced migration.
