Así como con la actual pandemia se ha revelado de nuevo que la única fórmula de salvación estriba en la solidaridad y el altruismo, también para la consecución de la paz y la convivencia duradera esa fórmula puede servirnos de aliciente y remedio, única manera de rompe...
The World Justice Project (WJP) joins efforts to produce reliable data on rule of law through the WJP Rule of Law Index 2016, the sixth report in an annual series, which measures rule of law based on the experiences and perceptions of the general public and in-country experts worldwide. We hope this annual publication, anchored in actual experiences, will help identify strengths and weaknesses in each country under review and encourage policy choices that strengthen the rule of law. The WJP Rule of Law Index 2016 presents a portrait of the rule of law in each country by providing scores and rankings organized around eights factors: constraints on government powers, absence of corruption, ope...
Drawing upon the empirical scholarship and research expertise of contributors from all settled continents and from diverse life settings and economies, Viral Loads illustrates how the COVID-19 pandemic, and responses to it, lay bare and load onto people’s lived realities in countries around the world. A crosscutting theme pertains to how social unevenness and gross economic disparities are shaping global and local responses to the pandemic, and illustrate the effects of both the virus and efforts to contain it in ways that amplify these inequalities. At the same time, the contributions highlight the nature of contemporary social life, including virtual communication, the nature of communit...

This important reference textbook covers the surgical management of all major orthopaedic and traumatological conditions. The book will act as the major source of education and guidance in surgical practice for surgeons and trainees, especially those preparing for higher surgical examinations and the Board of Orthopaedics and Traumatology examinations within and beyond Europe. The emphasis throughout is on the application of current knowledge and research to technical problems, how to avoid operative problems, and how to salvage complications if they occur. The didactic text is complemented by abundant illustrations that highlight the essentials of each clinical scenario. The authors are all recognized international authorities active at congresses and workshops as well as in universities and hospitals across the world.
La posibilidad de inserción en el campo de los centros de alfabetización y educación básica para jóvenes y adultos constituye una experiencia formadora que permite comprender características específicas de la modalidad, en pos de la profesionalización y especialización docente requerida para la inserción en este contexto. A tal fin es relevante construir acuerdos intercátedra e interinstitucionales que hagan viables la posibilidad de inmersión y avistamiento de un intento, quizás, para inventar una gramática. Entre redes y convergencias: una experiencia de formación sociocultural permite pensar a la educación en clave de derecho humano y educativo. En el recorrido del libro se realiza el abordaje de una gramática, una articulación entre experiencias, existencias, sentires y pensares que cobija singularidades y pluralidades. Rostros, otredades y políticas que circunscriben, en este caso, los modos de enseñar en los CAEBA y los modos de aprender a enseñar en el ISPEL3.
So, the film or television lesbian character dies. It seems to happen frequently. But does it really? If so, is it something new? Surveying the fates of numerous characters over decades, this study shows that killing off the lesbian is not a new trend. It is a form of symbolic annihilation and it has had an impact in real life. When more women are working behind the scenes, what appears on-screen also becomes more diverse--yet unhappily the story lines don't necessarily change. From the Xenaverse to GLAAD to the Lexa Pledge, fans have demanded better. As fan fiction migrates from the computer screen to the printed page, authors reanimate the dead and insist on happy endings.
