(Un)arranged Marriage
MANNY WANTS TO BE A FOOTBALLER. OR A POP STAR. OR WRITE A BESTSELLER. HE DOESN'T WANT TO GET MARRIED... 'Harry and Ranjit were waiting for me - waiting to take me to Derby, to a wedding. My wedding. A wedding that I hadn't asked for, that I didn't want. To a girl who I didn't know... If they had bothered to open their eyes, they would have seen me: seventeen, angry, upset but determined - determined to do my own thing, to choose my own path in life...' Set partly in the UK and partly in the Punjab region of India, this is a fresh, bitingly perceptive and totally up-to-the-minute look at one young man's fight to free himself from family expectations and to be himself, free to dance to his own tune.
El municipio ante la crisis del federalismo mexicano
La publicación de este libro coincide con la conmemoración de los 100 años de promulgación de la Constitución Política de los Estados Unidos Mexicanos; máximo ordenamiento jurídico que regula la vida de nuestro país. Entre las instituciones más importantes emanadas de este documento, se encuentra sin duda alguna, el sistema federal, uno de los cuatro que existen en la región, aunque paradójicamente, a pesar de ello, México sea reconocido como uno de los países más centralizados. La Constitución señala las reglas con base en las cuales los gobiernos federal, estatales y municipales trabajan para promover los objetivos más importantes, que de acuerdo con la actual agenda global de desarrollo son la erradicación de la pobreza y la inequidad. Este colosal reto obliga a preguntarse cuáles son los resultados que el modelo federal mexicano ha tenido en la promoción de mejores condiciones de vida para la población y en qué medida es aún útil para impulsar el trabajo coordinado de las tres esferas de gobierno, junto con los sectores privado y social, a fin de procurar el desarrollo integral de la nación.
