Download or read book For-get written by Claudia Bucciferro and published by University Press of America. This book was released on 2012 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The election of Michelle Bachelet, the first female president of Chile, brought to the public sphere topics such as gender, inequality, and the legacy of seventeen years of military rule. Former dictator Augusto Pinochet instructed Chileans to "for-get" and move on, but this is complicated because individual and collective identities are anchored in memory and articulated through discourse. What happens to a nation and its people when the obliged referent of their recent history is one that hardly anyone wants to address? This book reveals the incongruity between what current media say about Chilean identity and what most people experience, showing the tensions that prevail within a society that is also quickly changing due to globalization. The author engages with the old dichotomy between agency and structure, proposing a new model for understanding identity from an intercultural perspective.

Book Synopsis Beyond Geopolitics by : Alan McPherson
Download or read book Beyond Geopolitics written by Alan McPherson and published by UNM Press. This book was released on 2015-11-15 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Even though it failed to prevent World War II, the League of Nations left a lasting legacy. This precedent-setting international organization created important institutions and initiatives in labor, economics, culture, science, and more, from the International Labor Organization to initiatives targeting education, taxation, nutrition, and other issues. Otherwise marginalized in global diplomacy, Latin Americans were involved, and often acted as leaders, in many League-related activities and made a number of positive contributions to the League. In this book foremost scholars from Europe and the Americas consider Latin American leadership and experiences in the League of Nations. Using research in frequently overlooked collections, Beyond Geopolitics makes groundbreaking contributions to the study of Latin American international relations, the history of the League of Nations, and the broader story of cooperation across borders.

Book Synopsis United States and Chile by : David R. Mares
Download or read book United States and Chile written by David R. Mares and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-10-23 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The United States and Chile is the ideal introduction to U.S.- Chilean relations. From our strained Cold War relations and the Allende assassination to current democratic and economic development, senior scholars Mares and Aravena deftly trace the path of the relationship from early partners, through tense Cold War stand-offs, to the slowly warming relations of the present. The authors include information on General Augusto Pinochet's human rights violations, his current prosecution for them, and the United State's complicity in bringing him to power. Chile is only just now recovering from decades of political instability and government abuses, and this volume provides a thorough look back, and an informed vision of the future.
Book Synopsis ¿QUOD EST, SUMMUS? ¿EN QUE QUEDAMOS, SUPREMO? by : VIII QUORUM VIII
Download or read book ¿QUOD EST, SUMMUS? ¿EN QUE QUEDAMOS, SUPREMO? written by VIII QUORUM VIII and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2014-08-20 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ¿En que quedamos Supremo? La balanza de la justicia se inclina a favor o en contra, según se lo arrogue la ley y el derecho. La gente acude a los tribunales estatales y federales a resolver sus querellas y anhelan obtener justicia como una legitima aspiración consagrada en la Constitución y en la Carta de Derechos Civiles. Las sentencias que se dictan en los tribunales fundamentales, sea un fallo a favor o en contra, sera probidad para conformar una ulterior jurisprudencia. Así se ha construido el camino de la equidad y la justicia por siglos. En muchas ocasiones la balanza de la justicia se ha inclinado en contra de los derechos, sometiendo la justicia a intereses particulares, preferencias filosóficas y politicas, aun cuando el canon legal sea claro y evidente. ¿Cómo puede la ley ir en contra de la justicia? ¿Acaso la ley no invoca la justicia misma? ¿Adónde van a morir las demandas cuando los tribunales menores no interpretan acertadamente la ley? Al Tribunal Supremo de Justicia... Y siendo este el final del camino en busca de equilibrar la balanza. ¿En qué quedamos Supremo?

Book Synopsis The Performance of 16th-Century Music by : Anne Smith
Download or read book The Performance of 16th-Century Music written by Anne Smith and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2011-03-30 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most modern performers, trained on the performance practices of the Classical and Romantic periods, come to the music of the Renaissance with well-honed but anachronistic ideas. Fundamental differences between 16th-century repertoire and that of later epochs thus tend to be overlooked-yet it is just these differences which can make a performance truly stunning. The Performance of 16th-Century Music will enable the performer to better understand this music and advance their technical and expressive abilities. Early music specialist Anne Smith outlines several major areas of technical knowledge and skill needed to perform the music of this period. She takes readers through the significance of part-book notation; solmization; rhythmic flexibility; and elements of structure in relation to rhetoric of the time; while familiarizing them with contemporary criteria and standards of excellence for performance. Through The Performance of 16th-Century Music, today's musicians will gain fundamental insight into how 16th-century polyphony functions, and the tools necessary to perform this repertoire to its fullest, most glorious potential.

Book Synopsis Reconciliation, Nations and Churches in Latin America by : Revd Dr Iain S Maclean
Download or read book Reconciliation, Nations and Churches in Latin America written by Revd Dr Iain S Maclean and published by Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.. This book was released on 2013-05-28 with total page 472 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the recent phenomenon in Latin America of national Truth and Reconciliation commissions. Few studies have examined the role of Churches or religion in political processes that proclaim valued theological terms as their agenda – truth, forgiveness, and reconciliation. This book questions the role of religion, specifically of established Churches. The impact of such reconciliation commissions on Indigenous Native Americans is also examined, as is the role of women and how both commissions and Churches or religions were challenged by their experiences. The contributors offer differing perspectives on one or more national truth and reconciliation processes and thus offer a collection that serves as valuable source for the disciplines of Religious Studies, Ethics, Theology, Political Science, Social Sciences and Women's Studies.

Book Synopsis Empowering Labor by : Juan A. Bogliaccini
Download or read book Empowering Labor written by Juan A. Bogliaccini and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2024-03-21 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Empowering Labor uses a comparative study of Chile, Portugal, and Uruguay to analyze the underlying political dynamics that shape the use of wage policy as a pre-distributive instrument of leftist parties in power in unequal democracies. The book theorizes that the unity of the Left and labor's political legitimacy are two main drivers for relating on wage policy as a pre-distributive instrument for promoting inclusion. These factors are shaped by elite long-term strategies towards labor. Such strategies, when dominant for long-enough periods, create path dependency, shaping differential opportunities for further options down the road. The book integrates large-scale historical processes with frequently analyzed short-term and agency-based factors to elucidate variation in the crafting of wage policies and reshapes the debate on the politics of pre-distribution in unequal democracies by situating the cases in a longer historical arc.
Book Synopsis Routledge Handbook of the Influence Industry by : Emma L. Briant
Download or read book Routledge Handbook of the Influence Industry written by Emma L. Briant and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-10-14 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Handbook provides the first comprehensive examination of the influence industry and how it operates worldwide across different domains. The rapid evolution of emerging technologies and data-driven persuasive practices has been linked to the spread of misleading content in domestic and foreign influence campaigns. This has prompted worldwide public and policy discussions about disinformation and how to curb its spread. However, less attention has been paid to the increasingly data-driven commercial industry taking advantage of the opportunities these new technologies afford. The handbook uses the term ‘influence’ here to include not only messaging and public relations (PR), which fell within the traditional focus of propaganda studies, but to consider the infrastructure and actors behind an advanced array of capabilities that can be used in a coordinated way to affect an audience’s emotions, ideas and behaviors in order to advance a state or non-state actor’s objectives – increasingly based on data-driven profiling. The volume fills a gap in scholarship exploring the recent technical, political and economic development of this industry, surveying the extent of different technologies and services offered to clients worldwide across multiple domains (commercial, political, national security and government). The chapters are divided into three thematic sections and evaluate Influence Industry practices, aims and effectiveness across audiences; business practices and economics; and democratic structures and human rights. They also offer advice for researchers and consider key ethical issues and new regulatory approaches. This volume will be of much interest to students of political science, propaganda studies, sociology, communication studies and journalism.
Book Synopsis Fighting for Abortion Rights in Latin America by : Cora Fernández Anderson
Download or read book Fighting for Abortion Rights in Latin America written by Cora Fernández Anderson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-05-13 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although they share similar socio-economic and cultural characteristics as well as their recent political histories, Argentina, Chile and Uruguay differ radically in their abortion policies. In this book, Cora Fernández Anderson examines the role social movements play in abortion reform to show how different interaction patterns with state actors have led to three different policy outcomes: comprehensive abortion reform in Uruguay; moderate abortion reform in Chile; and no legal abortion reform in Argentina. Synthesizing a broad range of literature and drawing on in-depth field and archival research, she analyzes the strength of the campaigns for abortion reform, their relationships with leftist parties in power and the context of Church–state relations to explain this diverging trajectory in policy reform. A masterly analysis of how social movements, the power of institutions and Executive preferences have strong explanatory power, Fighting for Abortion Rights in Latin America is a perfect supplement for classes on gender and global politics.
