El libro, liderado por el Grupo Interdisciplinario de Investigación en Desarrollo, Estructuras Económicas, Políticas Públicas y Gestión (GIDEP), se convierte en la tercera publicación de la colección que, desde el año 2008, trabaja desde la interdisciplinariedad por la excelencia investigativa, a partir de la reflexión y aportes relevantes sobre problemas sociales complejos. En esta publicación los lectores encontrarán diferentes abordajes, reflexiones, discusiones, metodologías y conclusiones que les permitirán comprender que desde la interdisciplinariedad es posible aproximarse a la comprensión del problema del desarrollo. El texto analiza las crisis económicas y su impacto en el desarrollo, así como el capital social y el comportamiento de los agentes en diferentes contextos. Se observa que el “desarrollo” exige un pensamiento abierto, con capacidad de adaptación, que permita dejar de ver los problemas de manera individual, ya que sus elementos son dinámicos.
Since its U.S. debut a quarter-century ago, this brilliant text has set a new standard for historical scholarship of Latin America. It is also an outstanding political economy, a social and cultural narrative of the highest quality, and perhaps the finest description of primitive capital accumulation since Marx. Rather than chronology, geography, or political successions, Eduardo Galeano has organized the various facets of Latin American history according to the patterns of five centuries of exploitation. Thus he is concerned with gold and silver, cacao and cotton, rubber and coffee, fruit, hides and wool, petroleum, iron, nickel, manganese, copper, aluminum ore, nitrates, and tin. These are...
How nations can promote peace, prosperity, and stability through cohesive political institutions "Little else is required to carry a state to the highest degree of opulence from the lowest barbarism, but peace, easy taxes, and a tolerable administration of justice; all the rest being brought about by the natural course of things." So wrote Adam Smith a quarter of a millennium ago. Using the tools of modern political economics and combining economic theory with a bird's-eye view of the data, this book reinterprets Smith's pillars of prosperity to explain the existence of development clusters—places that tend to combine effective state institutions, the absence of political violence, and hig...
This book contains the summaries of the "Innovation in Pharmacy: Advances and Perspectives" that took place in Salamanca (Spain) in September 2018. The early science of chemistry and microbiology were the source of most drugs until the revolution of genetic engineering in the mid 1970s. Then biotechnology made available novel protein agents such as interferons, blood factors and monoclonal antibodies that have changed the modern pharmacy. Over the past year, a new pharmacy of oligonucleotides has emerged from the science of gene expression such as RNA splicing and RNA interference. The ability to design therapeutic agents from genomic sequences will transform treatment for many diseases. The...
