Actores sociales, acciones colectivas y transformación social.
En esta obra se analizan varios procesos de educación, acción colectiva, inclusión social, territorio, memoria e identidad, como resultado de los proyectos de investigación- intervención desarrollados por docentes y estudiantes de la Facultad de Sociología de la Universidad Santo Tomás. Gracias a la articulación con diferentes sectores sociales y comunidades, principalmente madres, lideresas comunitarias, adultos mayores, campesinos, niños, niñas y jóvenes, los autores exploran herramientas teóricas y metodológicas que implementan en organizaciones sociales, instituciones educativas y entidades públicas y privadas, con el propósito de mitigar o transformar diversas problemáticas locales.
Nuevo Chile, acción colectiva y tejido social.
A mediados de los años cincuenta se empieza a observar la proliferación de las llamadas urbanizaciones piratas y las invasiones de terrenos en Bogotá. En un primer momento, la respuesta desde el Estado se centró en su erradicación, pero luego dio paso a los programas de legalización y regularización de asentamientos informales. Una de las organizaciones más importantes en materia de apoyo a la población “destechada” en Colombia ha sido la Central Nacional Provivienda (Cenaprov), un referente nacional en materia de lucha por la vivienda. A partir del trabajo realizado entre 2015 y 2018 por líderes comunitarios y la Facultad de Sociología de la Universidad Santo Tomás, en esta obra se reconstruye la memoria del proceso de urbanización y consolidación del barrio Nuevo Chile, que se encuentra localizado al sur de la ciudad de Bogotá, y en cuyo surgimiento fue vital el papel de Cenaprov. Por lo anterior, es esta una contribución invaluable para la formación de profesionales comprometidos con las comunidades y el fortalecimiento del vínculo universidad-sociedad.
War
This book provides an accessible and engaging account of the contemporary laws of war. It highlights how, even though war has been outlawed and should be finished as an institution, states continue to claim that they can wage necessary wars of self-defence, engage in lawful killings in war, and imprison law-of-war detainees.
Negotiating Survival
Two decades on from 9/11, the Taliban now control more than half of Afghanistan. Few would have foreseen such an outcome, and there is little understanding of how Afghans living in Taliban territory have navigated life under insurgent rule. Based on over 400 interviews with Taliban and civilians, this book tells the story of how civilians have not only bargained with the Taliban for their survival, but also ultimately influenced the course of the war in Afghanistan. While the Taliban have the power of violence on their side, they nonetheless need civilians to comply with their authority. Both strategically and by necessity, civilians have leveraged this reliance on their obedience in order t...
Towards a Regime of Responsibility of Armed Groups in International Law
"Armed groups have played a predominant role in the violations of international humanitarian law and international human rights law committed in conflict settings. The increase in the number of non-international armed conflicts during the past decades has emphasised the need to address the multiple legal challenges posed by the actions of armed groups. In particular, there is considerable uncertainty regarding the framework of responsibility for armed groups in international law. While much has been written regarding their international (primary) obligations, the possibility of developing a responsibility framework for armed groups under international law has been underexplored. Consequently...

Covid-19 en un país de alto riesgo. Primer semestre 2020 (Análisis Plural)
Nadie duda de que los primeros seis meses de este 2020 han sido diciles, no solo para México sino para el mundo entero. La inesperada pandemia de covid–19 ha puesto en jaque a todas las economías del mundo y ha afectado a todas las esferas de la vida. Que hay países que han aplicado mejores medidas de contención contra el coronavirus es cierto, y que otros aún se debaten entre la ineptitud y la desesperación ante la cantidad de muertes y el desplome de sus economías, pero ninguno ha dejado de desear que esta pesadilla pase cuanto antes. En este contexto, los contenidos de esta edición responden a preguntas urgentes: ¿cómo podrá recuperarse la economía? ¿se han vulnerado los de...
Self Portrait in Green
'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.
The Accountability of Armed Groups Under Human Rights Law
Today the majority of the armed conflicts around the world are fought between States and armed groups, rather than between States. This changed conflict landscape creates an imperative to clarify the obligations of armed groups under international law. While it is generally accepted that armed groups are bound by international humanitarian law, the question of whether they are also bound by human rights law is controversial. This book brings significant new understanding to the question of whether and when armed groups might be bound by human rights law. Its conclusions will benefit international law academics, legal practitioners and political scientists and anthropologists working on issue...
