Pensiones y personas en condición de discapacidad en Colombia

  • Categories: Law

Ante el precario panorama de inclusión social de las personas con discapacidad la discusión sobre una pensión de discapacidad resulta no solo relevante sino apremiante. Una pensión de discapacidad debe entenderse como un mecanismo de protección social que asegura el hecho de ser una persona con discapacidad, sea porque se nazca con dicha condición o porque se adquiera en algún momento de la vida. Dicha pensión debe proteger a las personas con discapacidad y a sus familias del riesgo de caer en la pobreza y encontrarse sin ingreso alguno y con las cargas enormes de tener que atender los cuidados que ella demanda. Esta es una necesidad que, como se plantea en el libro, deriva de los estándares internacionales sobre el Derecho a la Seguridad Social y que no ha sido abordada de manera responsable por el legislador configurando una omisión de constitucionalidad. De. esta manera la presente publicación constituye un importante insumo en esa discusión, fundamentarla jurídica y técnicamente y avanzar así en la protección del derecho a la seguridad social de las personas con discapacidad en Colombia.

Women and Guerrilla Movements

The revolutionary movements that emerged frequently in Latin America over the past century promoted goals that included overturning dictatorships, confronting economic inequalities, and creating what Cuban revolutionary hero Che Guevara called the "new man." But, in fact, many of the "new men" who participated in these movements were not men. Thousands of them were women. This book aims to show why a full understanding of revolutions needs to take account of gender. Karen Kampwirth writes here about the women who joined the revolutionary movements in Nicaragua, El Salvador, and the Mexican state of Chiapas, about how they became guerrillas, and how that experience changed their lives. In the...

Derecho procesal contemporáneo

  • Categories: Law

En la mayoría de los Estados del mundo, el derecho procesal contiene como medio de defensa la generalidad de la impugnación y la especialidad de los recursos como parte integral del instituto de la impugnación para control general de las decisiones de los jueces que por alguna circunstancia se desvían del sendero propio de la pronta, cumplida y eficaz justicia al momento de proferir las providencias dentro de los procesos que vienen rituando por el ruego de quienes están insatisfechos con sus derechos constitucionales y legales1. En el procesalismo judicial, como lo advierte la jurisprudencia adoctrinada, estos medios de control son necesarios para poner fin al desvío de los principios...

A creative and comprehensive exploration of the institutional forces undermining the management of environments critical to public health. For almost two decades, the citizens of Western Mexico have called for a cleanup of the Santiago River, a water source so polluted it emanates an overwhelming acidic stench. Toxic clouds of foam lift off the river in a strong wind. In Sewer of Progress, Cindy McCulligh examines why industrial dumping continues in the Santiago despite the corporate embrace of social responsibility and regulatory frameworks intended to mitigate environmental damage. The fault, she finds, lies in a disingenuous discourse of progress and development that privileges capitalist...

'NDiaye is a hypnotic storyteller with an unflinching understanding of the rock-bottom reality of most people's life.' New York Times ' One of France's most exciting prose stylists.' The Guardian. Obsessed by her encounters with the mysterious green women, and haunted by the Garonne River, a nameless narrator seeks them out in La Roele, Paris, Marseille, and Ouagadougou. Each encounter reveals different aspects of the women; real or imagined, dead or alive, seductive or suicidal, driving the narrator deeper into her obsession, in this unsettling exploration of identity, memory and paranoia. Self Portrait in Green is the multi-prize winning, Marie NDiaye's brilliant subversion of the memoir. Written in diary entries, with lyrical prose and dreamlike imagery, we start with and return to the river, which mirrors the narrative by posing more questions than it answers.
