Esta es la primera reedición completa del Museo, tras 154 años de su publicación. Para la presente obra se reconstruyó la edición príncipe de 1866 (Imprenta de Foción Mantilla), que reposa en la Biblioteca Nacional de Colombia. La Biblioteca del Banco Popular hizo una edición del Museo en 1973 en cuatro tomos, retitulándola Museo de cuadros de costumbres, variedades y viajes. A pesar de ser un esfuerzo encomiable, la edición excluyó textos que inicialmente estaban en el Museo y se dio libertades que desdibujaron el original. Por ejemplo, sacó los cuadros de Ricardo Silva y de Emiro Kastos, así como los textos de Manuel Ancízar, con el fin de editar volúmenes separados para est...
This paper reviews the literature on financial crises focusing on three specific aspects. First, what are the main factors explaining financial crises? Since many theories on the sources of financial crises highlight the importance of sharp fluctuations in asset and credit markets, the paper briefly reviews theoretical and empirical studies on developments in these markets around financial crises. Second, what are the major types of financial crises? The paper focuses on the main theoretical and empirical explanations of four types of financial crises—currency crises, sudden stops, debt crises, and banking crises—and presents a survey of the literature that attempts to identify these episodes. Third, what are the real and financial sector implications of crises? The paper briefly reviews the short- and medium-run implications of crises for the real economy and financial sector. It concludes with a summary of the main lessons from the literature and future research directions.

(abridged and revised) This reference grammar offers intermediate and advanced students a reason ably comprehensive guide to the morphology and syntax of educated speech and plain prose in Spain and Latin America at the end of the twentieth century. Spanish is the main, usually the sole official language of twenty-one countries,} and it is set fair to overtake English by the year 2000 in numbers 2 of native speakers. This vast geographical and political diversity ensures that Spanish is a good deal less unified than French, German or even English, the latter more or less internationally standardized according to either American or British norms. Until the 1960s, the criteria of international...
