Leur vie est quelquefois marquée par tel ou tel événement ou situation qu'il convient d'accompagner au mieux pour permettre un discernement de qualité qui respecte la liberté de ...
El concepto de la “corredención mariana” ha pasado de quedarse a las puertas de ser proclamado como el quinto dogma sobre la Virgen en la Iglesia latina, a ser hoy sin discusión uno de los fundamentos más cuestionados desde todos los ámbitos de la teología, desconcertando a toda una generación de pastores, teólogos y creyentes católicos que han crecido con la convicción de este rol diferenciado de María en la historia de la salvación, y que ahora se encuentran confundidos ante ambientes que relacionan este término con percepciones exageradas del pasado envueltas en el sentimentalismo. Y es que asumiendo buena parte de las críticas resulta muy complicado para otras tradicione...

This work by two New Testament scholars is the first comprehensive social history of the earliest churches. Integrating the historical and social data, they locate the ancient Galileans, Judeans, and the Jesus movement in their respective matrices. The Stegemanns deal with such issues as conflict between the messianic communities and the rest of Judaism, religious pluralism, social stratification, group composition, gender division, ancient economics, and urban/rurual distinctions.
Colombia is the least understood of Latin American countries. Its human tragedy, which features terrifying levels of kidnapping, homicide and extortion, is generally ignored or exploited. In this urgent new work Forrest Hylton, who has extensive first-hand experience of living and working in Colombia, explores its history of 150 years of political conflict, characterized by radical-popular mobilization and reactionary repression. Evil Hour in Colombia shows how patterns of political conflict, from the mid-nineteenth century to today's guerilla narco-traffickers and paramilitaries, explain the wear currently destroying Colombian lives, property, communities and territory. In doing so, it traces how Colombia's "coffee capitalism" gave way to the cattle and cocaine republic of the 1980s, and how land, wealth and power have been steadily accumulated by the light-skinned top of the social pyramid through a brutal combination of terror, expropriation and economic depression.

According to recent estimates, around 6,000 people – mostly children under five – die every day from diseases caused by inappropriate water and sanitation (WS) services. Much of the academic and political debate surrounding this issue has focused on private sector participation. By shifting the attention towards the influence of governance, Krause examines the political and sectoral institutions that are essential for the provision of WS services. Utilizing data from sixty-nine developing countries, Matthias Krause demonstrates that the level of democracy has a statistically significant positive impact on access to WS services and that low-quality governance of sub-national governments compromises the internal efficiency of providers and the widespread access to services. This book makes a critical contribution to the water and sanitation research and will help academics and policy-makers to rethink the way in which they deal with water issues.
