Género y deporte: el régimen jurídico de la mujer deportista

  • Categories: Law

La lucha constante contra la discriminación de género, y por alcanzar una igualdad real y efectiva entre mujeres y hombres en las diferentes esferas de la sociedad, se concibe como una de las principales y más urgentes demandas sociales de nuestro tiempo. Sin embargo, perviven sectores de actividad, como es el caso del deporte, en los que el hecho de materializar tal objetivo se ve limitado, sobre todo, por el mantenimiento de unas estructuras y de una filosofía más propia de épocas ya superadas, en las que aquellos escenarios discriminatorios, principalmente hacia las mujeres, parecían encontrar una justificación de tipo social y/o cultural. En consecuencia, y aun en el contexto de ...

Cuestiones jurídico-deportivas

  • Categories: Law

Las facetas del deporte son innumerables y, por ello, también las diversas cuestiones jurídicas que pueden ser objeto de estudio. En esta obra se ofrecen las reflexiones sobre cinco de esas cuestiones: la problemática de los concursos de acreedores de las entidades deportivas y en especial de las sociedades anónimas deportivas; las normas de buen gobierno de las entidades deportivas; el ejercicio de la potestad disciplinaria sobre los menores de edad; los fondos de inversión, o si se prefiere, los controvertidos TPO; y la financiación de las federaciones deportivas estatales.

Cuba

In Cuba, internationally renowned artists, philosophers, and writers reflect on the idea of a nation displaced. Featuring contributions from Isabel Alvarez Borland, Antonio Benítez-Rojo, María Cristina García, William Navarrete, Eliana Rivero, Rafael Rojas, and Carlos Victoria, as well as many others, Cuba is a rich collection of essays, testimonials, and interviews that reveal the complex, often antagonistic cultural and political debates coexisting within the Cuban exile population. As a multivoiced text, Cuba formulates a deeper understanding of diasporic identity, and broadens the discussion of the manner in which Cuban cultural identity and nationhood have been constructed, negotiated, and transformed by physical and cultural displacement.

Enforced disappearance is one of the most serious human rights violations. It constitutes an autonomous offence and a crime under international law on account of its multiple and continuing character. It is not a phenomenon of the past, nor is it geographically limited to Latin America: such scourge is widespread today and on the increase in other continents. For more than twenty-five years, relatives of disappeared people worldwide have insisted on the pressing need for an international legally binding instrument against enforced disappearances. 2006 is the year of the adoption of the International Convention on the Protection of All Persons from Enforced Disappearances, which represents the result of several legislative and jurisprudential developments that are duly analyzed in this book. The Convention has been opened for signature in February 2007.

Projects that bring the ‘hard’ sciences into art are increasingly being exhibited in galleries and museums across the world. In a surge of publications on the subject, few focus on regions beyond Europe and the Anglophone world. Decolonizing Science in Latin American Art assembles a new corpus of art-science projects by Latin American artists, ranging from big-budget collaborations with NASA and MIT to homegrown experiments in artists’ kitchens. While they draw on recent scientific research, these art projects also ‘decolonize’ science. If increasing knowledge of the natural world has often gone hand-in-hand with our objectification and exploitation of it, the artists studied here ...
