Writing about Troilo over a century after his birth and nearly fifty years after his death implies a certainty: the artist, who performed with him, in all but a few cases, no longer exist. That vast absence compels us to seek Troilo where he never left: the music. “Troilo: Biography of Argentina” is a music book, but also a precise and rigorous painting of a mobilized, vigorous and encompassing country where culture –and tango– were in the spotlight. It might well be read as a text that uncovers the keys of growth and decline of Argentina
This latest Fifth Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) will again form the standard reference for all those concerned with climate change and its consequences, including students, researchers and policy makers in environmental science, meteorology, climatology, biology, ecology, atmospheric chemistry and environmental policy.
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) is the leading international body for assessing the science related to climate change. It provides policymakers with regular assessments of the scientific basis of human-induced climate change, its impacts and future risks, and options for adaptation and mitigation. This IPCC Special Report on Climate Change and Land (SRCCL) is the most comprehensive and up-to-date scientific assessment of the multiple interactions between climate change and land, assessing climate change, desertification, land degradation, sustainable land management, food security, and greenhouse gas fluxes in terrestrial ecosystems. It assesses the options for governance and decision-making across multiple scales. It serves policymakers, decision makers, stakeholders, and all interested parties with unbiased, up-to-date, policy-relevant information. This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.

“This timely volume chronicles and analyses the intersection of rice policies and the pandemic through case studies of a diverse range of Southeast Asian countries: rice exporters, rice importers and city-states. There is no group of eminent researchers better suited to carrying out this work, and they conduct the analysis by illuminating the historical context that is essential to an understanding of rice policies in the region. This volume is a must-read for anyone interested in rice policies and politics in contemporary Southeast Asia.”--David Dawe, Former Senior Economist with the International Rice Research Institute and the Food and Agricultural Organization. “This is highly reco...
El nombre de Aníbal Troilo representa el canon y la gramática de la estética del tango. Se escribe y se toca desde, en relación o contra su paradigma. Desde su figura también es posible trazar un relato mayor, que trasciende a la música, y que dialoga con el ascenso y declive de la Argentina. Los periodistas Mariano Suárez y Miguel Ángel Taboada asumen ese desafío en “Troilo. Una teoría del todo”. Mil Campanas edita “Troilo. Una teoría del todo” eludiendo especialmente la tentación del aniversario. Sin esperar ninguna fecha redonda ni agotar su proyecto en ella. Con la expectativa de ofrecer un texto riguroso en el plano musical pero que a la vez aporte a la comprensión ...

La agencia Télam quedó en el centro del ojo público cuando, en 2018, el gobierno nacional –en pleno campeonato mundial de fútbol- se propuso despedir a casi la mitad de su planta y suprimir su estructura federal. Fue el detonante de un conflicto gremial que cobró trascendencia pública y despertó adhesiones inimaginables. Fue –además- uno de los primeros conflictos político-sindicales que le torció el brazo al gobierno de Mauricio Macri. Detrás de esa historia, hay otra historia mayor. Télam es uno de los medios más antiguos de la Argentina. Estuvo bajo la dirección del Poder Ejecutivo durante la mayor parte de su existencia. Fue la herramienta de operaciones de propaganda durante dictaduras y democracias. Un instrumento a mano de las necesidades de los servicios de inteligencia. Pero, también, un espacio donde se reconocen actos de resistencia de sus trabajadores y numerosos hitos periodísticos.
