This book is devoted to the 25th anniversary of the United Nations Declaration on the Right to Development. It contains a collection of analytical studies of various aspects of the right to development, which include the rule of law and good governance, aid, trade, debt, technology transfer, intellectual property, access to medicines and climate change in the context of an enabling environment at the local, regional and international levels. It also explores the issues of poverty, women and indigenous peoples within the theme of social justice and equity. The book considers the strides that have been made over the years in measuring progress in implementing the right to development and possible ways forward to make the right to development a reality for all in an increasingly fragile, interdependent and ever-changing world.

Este trabajo pretende y tiene la legitima ambición de hacer un diagnostico y análisis de la sociedad actual. En esta introducción haremos una descripción general de los temas que pretendemos abordar a lo largo del trabajo. El libro se divide en dos partes: en la primera: el diagnostico, descripción, estadísticas y elementos cualitativos que nos sirvan para demostrar las contradicciones y crisis de la sociedad contemporánea. En la segunda parte, pretendemos el análisis mas profundo, la revisión teórica y filosófica, que nos permita adentrarnos en temas centrales de la realidad actual: sociedad, hombre, humanidad, cultural, político, económico, trabajo, familia, ciencias, conocimiento, comunicación, ambiental, entre otros.
