PRÓLOGO La defensa legítima de los derechos es fundamento de cualquier sociedad: nadie puede ser obligado a soportar la disminución injusta de sus derechos sin la opción de defenderlos1. Uno de los temas más apasionantes en la dogmática penal es el estudio y aplicación de la legítima defensa, que en términos generales ha sido entendida como el reconocimiento por el ordenamiento jurídico de la afectación de un derecho de un tercero, ante una agresión injusta, actual o inminente, que hace necesaria la acción defensiva. Este es el tema objeto de estudio del presente libro colectivo, en el que los autores desarrollan, a partir del análisis de casos, los más relevantes problemas do...
La legítima defensa constituye una de las instituciones irrenunciables de cualquier orden jurídico de libertades, por lo que ha sido estudiada en profundidad en los sistemas de los que se ha nutrido históricamente el derecho penal colombiano. En nuestro ámbito, sin embargo, son escasos los trabajos que se ocupan de los fundamentos teóricos y de los criterios y límites de aplicación de la legítima defensa, lo que ha repercutido de manera negativa en una praxis judicial poco profunda y no pocas veces confusa. El denominador común de los textos que componen este volumen consiste precisamente en analizar, a la luz del ordenamiento penal colombiano, una serie de recientes casos práctico...
This book offers a descriptive and practical analysis of prosody in dubbed speech, examining the most distinctive traits that typify dubbed dialogue at the prosodic level. The author's unique perspective - as both a translation studies researcher and a voice-over professional - helps to bring these two aspects of the dubbing process together into a coherent study for the first time. Supported by corpus analysis of English and Spanish episodes of US TV show How I Met Your Mother, she examines aspects of prosody in source and target languages, including features such as intonation, loudness, tempo, rhythm and tension. This book will be of interest to students and scholars of translation and interpreting, media studies, television and film production, as well as dubbing professionals.

The Internet of Things (IoT) has attracted much attention from society, industry and academia as a promising technology that can enhance day to day activities, and the creation of new business models, products and services, and serve as a broad source of research topics and ideas. A future digital society is envisioned, composed of numerous wireless connected sensors and devices. Driven by huge demand, the massive IoT (mIoT) or massive machine type communication (mMTC) has been identified as one of the three main communication scenarios for 5G. In addition to connectivity, computing and storage and data management are also long-standing issues for low-cost devices and sensors. The book is a collection of outstanding technical research and industrial papers covering new research results, with a wide range of features within the 5G-and-beyond framework. It provides a range of discussions of the major research challenges and achievements within this topic.

The book approaches the African presence in the Iberian Peninsula by identifying and documenting the traces of these population groups in Spain and Portugal. Cultural Studies, Anthropology and Sociology are some of t...
