Book Description
The chapters of this book explore, from different disciplinary perspectives, the relationship between transitional justice, distributive justice, and economic efficiency in the settlement of internal armed conflicts. They specifically discuss the role of land reform as an instrument of these goals, and examine how the balance between different perspectives has been attempted (or not) in selected cases of internal armed conflicts, and how it should be attempted in principle. Although most chapters closely examine the Colombian case, some provide a comparative perspective that includes countries in Latin America, Africa, and Eastern Europe, while others examine some of the more general, theoretical issues involved.

Book Description
Alexander III was one of the most important popes of the Middle Ages and his papacy (1159-81) marked a significant watershed in the history of the Western Church and society. This book provides a long overdue reassessment of his papacy and his achievements, bringing together thirteen essays which review existing scholarship and present the latest research and new perspectives. Individual chapters cover topics such as Alexander's many contributions to the law of the Church, which had a major impact upon Western society, notably on marriage, his relations with Byzantium, and the extension of papal authority at the peripheries of the West, in Spain, Northern Europe and the Holy Land. But dominant are the major clashes between secular and spiritual authority: the confrontation between Henry II of England and Thomas Becket after which Alexander eventually secured the king's co-operation and the pope's eighteen-year conflict with the German emperor, Frederick I. Both the papacy and the Western Church emerged as stronger institutions from this struggle, largely owing to Alexander's leadership and resilience: he truly mastered the art of survival.

Book Description
Until now scholars in Hispanic, Russian, and comparative literature have not had the bibliographical basis that would make it possible to investigate the diffusion of Russian literature in the Spanish and Spanish-American world. This computerized annotated bibliography of translations and criticism provides that basis. The bibliography is preceded by an introductory study, in Spanish and English of a literary relationship between Russia and the Spanish-American countries that has never before been seriously investigated. Using information he has collected in more than a dozen countries over some twenty years, the author examines the influence of Russian authors in the Spanish world, and examines Soviet claims this relationship was political. His conclusions indicate that Russian literature appeared in the Hispanic world much earlier than has been assumed by scholars thus far. They also throw interesting light on the preferences among Russian authors and literary genres in the Hispanic world, and on the intermediaries between the two cultures and the centres of distribution of Russian letters. The bibliography is divided into anthologies and compilations, general criticism, literary works (by authors, with criticisms), pseudo-Russian writings, and semi-literary works. Twelve indexes make access to the material especially convenient. This multilingual bibliography is the product of considerable international cooperation. It will be of great interest to those working in the areas of Hispanic, Slavic, and comparative literatures, and will be an indispensable reference work for bibliographers.

Book Description
Insightful and accessible, A Social History of Modern Spain is the first comprehensive social history of modern Spain in any language. Adrian Shubert analyzes the social development of Spain since 1800. He explores the social conflicts at the root of the Spanish Civil War and how that war and the subsequent changes from democracy to Franco and back again have shaped the social relations of the country. Paying equal attention to the rural and urban worlds and respecting the great regional diversity within Spain, Shubert draws a sophisticated picture of a country struggling with the problems posed by political, economic, and social change. He begins with an overview of the rural economy and the relationship of the people to the land, then moves on to an analysis of the work and social lives of the urban population. He then discusses the changing roles of the clergy, the military, and the various local government, community, and law enforcement officials. A Social History of Modern Spain concludes with an analysis of the dramatic political, economic, and social changes during the Franco regime and during the subsequent return to democracy.
