América Latina
Entre 2015 y 2020, América Latina ha tenido que lidiar con la desaceleración económica de los modelos neoextractivistas, el estancamiento de la reducción de la pobreza y de la desigualdad, la creciente rivalidad entre Estados Unidos y China, además de la cada vez mayor insatisfacción de la sociedad civil con las promesas de las democracias -con frecuentes derivas autocráticas-, que han sido minadas por la corrupción o por la violencia. Con este pasado reciente en mente, este libro ofrece los aportes de veintitrés académicos de varios rincones del continente que identifican ciclos y entreciclos socioeconómicos y políticos, para entender los resultados y los desafíos de una modernización regional inacabada. El primer cuarto del siglo xxI finaliza con el agotamiento de la ola rosa, el descrédito de las promesas de las nuevas derechas o las vías intermedias y, principalmente, con una pandemia que fuerza a reformular el lugar de América Latina en el mundo y viceversa, mediante la puesta a prueba de herencias y proyectos compartidos
Aging Research - Methodological Issues
This book reviews classical epidemiological and clinical research studies, with a focus on aging. Chapters cover methodological topics like the scientific method, ethics, and the consequences of certain exclusion criteria, and the work includes a look at clinical concepts like multimorbidity, frailty and functionality.

Area-wide Integrated Pest Management
Over 98% of sprayed insecticides and 95% of herbicides reach a destination other than their target species, including non-target species, air, water and soil. The extensive reliance on insecticide use reduces biodiversity, contributes to pollinator decline, destroys habitat, and threatens endangered species. This book offers a more effective application of the Integrated Pest Management (IPM) approach, on an area-wide (AW) or population-wide (AW-IPM) basis, which aims at the management of the total population of a pest, involving a coordinated effort over often larger areas. For major livestock pests, vectors of human diseases and pests of high-value crops with low pest tolerance, there are ...

Of Love and Papers
A free open access ebook is available upon publication. Learn more at www.luminosoa.org. Of Love and Papers explores how immigration policies are fundamentally reshaping Latino families. Drawing on two waves of interviews with undocumented young adults, Enriquez investigates how immigration status creeps into the most personal aspects of everyday life, intersecting with gender to constrain family formation. The imprint of illegality remains, even upon obtaining DACA or permanent residency. Interweaving the perspectives of US citizen romantic partners and children, Enriquez illustrates the multigenerational punishment that limits the upward mobility of Latino families. Of Love and Papers sparks an intimate understanding of contemporary US immigration policies and their enduring consequences for immigrant families.
