Book Description
La obra COVID-19 y su circunstancia. Una visión jurídica plural de la pandemia, volumen IV. Política, derecho y economía, reúne un total de nueve artículos y once autores/as, los cuales abordan temas variados desde aspectos del modelo neoliberal; democracia; geopolítica; gobernanza; sistemas representativos; acuerdos y decretos del Ejecutivo; crisis subsistémicas y bienestar; sector privado y pueblos indígenas. De todos es sabido que el mundo jamás enfrentó una pandemia simultánea a nivel global como la que nos trajo el virus SARS-CoV-2. Y así es, ésta es una de las pautas que más caracteriza la situación creada por la enfermedad de COVID-19, a la cual se le agrega una falta de preparación para afrontar la misma, con efectos económicos, sociales, políticos y, por supuesto, de salud. Precisamente como una mano extendida que ofrece apoyo, presentamos una colección de cinco volúmenes que busca hacer eco de los problemas más acuciantes y solidarizarse con los más desfavorecidos, porque el mundo cambió y no necesariamente para mejor.

The Demographic Dividend
Author: David Bloom
Publisher: Rand Corporation
ISBN: 0833033735
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 127
Book Description
There is long-standing debate on how population growth affects national economies. A new report from Population Matters examines the history of this debate and synthesizes current research on the topic. The authors, led by Harvard economist David Bloom, conclude that population age structure, more than size or growth per se, affects economic development, and that reducing high fertility can create opportunities for economic growth if the right kinds of educational, health, and labor-market policies are in place. The report also examines specific regions of the world and how their differing policy environments have affected the relationship between population change and economic development.

Xenotransplantation
Author: Sheila A. M. McLean
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1351142704
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 495
Book Description
Originally published in 2005. One of the leading causes of death is organ failure, that is, when one or other of the organs that run the machine we call the body gives out. However, whereas with a machine spare parts can usually replace faulty parts, in the case of humans the supply of these is limited as it is dependent on organs being obtained from living or dead donors. Due to the limitations of supply, increasing attention is being paid to alternative schemes for obtaining organs. One of these possibilities is xenotransplantation: using organs from animals. In this book, the authors examine the legal and ethical issues surrounding xenotransplantation and consider the implications for the future. As they point out, xenotransplantation represents a major deviation from standard medical practice and the possibility of transplantation of large segments of tissue, or whole organs, from animals into humans poses an entirely novel set of considerations - ethical, legal and scientific - which it is necessary to evaluate and understand.

Media Activism in the Digital Age
Author: Victor Pickard
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1315393921
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 262
Book Description
Media Activism in the Digital Age captures an exciting moment in the evolution of media activism studies and offers an invaluable guide to this vibrant and evolving field of research. Victor Pickard and Guobin Yang have assembled essays by leading scholars and activists to provide case studies of feminist, technological, and political interventions during different historical periods and at local, national, and global levels. Looking at the underlying theories, histories, politics, ideologies, tactics, strategies, and aesthetics, the book takes an expansive view of media activism. It explores how varieties of activism are mediated through communication technologies, how activists deploy strategies for changing the structures of media systems, and how governments and corporations seek to police media activism. From memes to zines, hacktivism to artivism, this volume considers activist practices involving both older kinds of media and newer digital, social, and network-based forms. Media Activism in the Digital Age provides a useful cross-section of this growing field for both students and researchers.

Visions of Venice in Shakespeare
Author: Laura Tosi
Publisher: Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.
ISBN: 9781409405474
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 282
Book Description
Despite the growing critical relevance of Shakespeare's two Venetian plays and a burgeoning bibliography on both The Merchant of Venice and Othello, few books have dealt extensively with the relationship between Shakespeare and Venice. This timely collection fills a gap in the literature, addressing the new historical, political and economic questions that have been raised in the last few years about early modern globalization, multiculturalism, and multiple social and ethnic identities.
