In "Essays of Woodrow Wilson," the renowned American statesman and 28th President of the United States presents a collection of thought-provoking essays that explore the intricate relationship between governance, democracy, and society. Wilsons literary style is characterized by eloquent prose and a reflective tone, offering readers insight into the political climate of the early 20th century. Through historical analysis and philosophical inquiry, Wilson addresses key themes such as autonomy, civic duty, and the moral imperatives of leadership, all informed by his belief in progressivism and his vision for a more just world. These essays are not merely political treatises; they are a profound exploration of the moral dimensions of politics and the responsibilities of citizenship in a democratic society. Woodrow Wilson, a scholar before he was a politician, served as the president of Princeton University prior to his political career. His scholarly background deeply influenced his perspective on governance, prompting him to articulate complex ideas with clarity and urgency. Wilsons experiences, including his tenure during World War I, undoubtedly shaped the philosophical underpinnings of these essays, as he grappled with the intersection of ethics and international relations. This collection is highly recommended for scholars of political science, history, and philosophy, as it provides essential insights into Wilsons vision of democracy and leadership. Those seeking to understand the foundational principles of modern governance will find Wilsons essays both illuminating and relevant, as they challenge contemporary readers to consider the moral imperatives of political action in an increasingly complex world.

Este libro tiene por objetivo presentar propuestas de política institucional, migratoria y de convergencia del intercambio comercial para la reactivación de la integración multidimensional latinoamericana, en estudios de regionalismo comparado de experiencias de Europa, de Asia, de Africa y de America Latina. Estas propuestas permiten avanzar hacia nuevas acciones prioritarias en la integracion regional latinoamericana, mediante politicas: 1) institucionales, para avanzar en condiciones minimas de operatividad efectiva, evaluacion de objetivos y funciones de los organismos regionales existentes y promocion de la articulacion eficaz de los distintos procesos de integracion que existen en la region, teniendo como referencia las experiencia desarrolladas en distintas regiones del planeta; 2) migratorias, abordando la importancia de los programas de empleo y la regulacion migratoria, asi como los mecanismos de seguridad social y proteccion de los derechos humanos de la poblacion migrante, y 3) de convergencia del intercambio comercial, mediante el analisis del Programa Operador Economico Autorizado con potencial para generar ventajas competitivas a las empresas que hacen vida en los paises latinoamericanos, instrumento de liberacion del intercambio de mercancias a nivel intrarregional y de desarrollo de cadenas globales y regionales de valor.

Forget the adventure stories of James Bond, Kim Philby, Klaus Fuchs and co. espionage is not just a boys game. As long as there has been conflict, there have been female agents behind the scenes. In Belgium and northern France in 191418 there were several thousand women actively working against the Kaisers forces occupying their homelands. In the Second World War, women of many nations opposed the Nazis, risking the firing squad or decapitation by axe or guillotine. Yet, many of those women did not have the right to vote for a government or even open a bank account. So why did they do it?Female Secret Agents explores the lives and the motivations of the women of many races and social classes who have risked their lives as secret agents, and celebrates their intelligence, strength and courage.

Desde la difusión de miles de cables secretos entre Washington y las embajadas estadounidenses hasta los recientes audios del "coimagate" argentino, las filtraciones son el último refugio de la verdad, en un mundo en el que la informacion fue reemplazada por opiniones, propaganda y fake news.La primera megafiltracion masiva difundio papeles del Pentagono con la novedad del momento: una fotocopiadora. Hoy la tecnologia permite publicar miles de archivos para que las audiencias conozcan su contenido sin intermediaciones. La historia de esos hallazgos muestra por que esta forma de revelar los secretos del poder es, con sus virtudes y defectos, heroes y villanos, una herramienta vital para el acceso a la informacion y para el futuro de la democracia. El filtrador puede ser un funcionario poderoso, un empresario estafado, un empleado enojado, un espia, un loco, un idealista. La filtracion puede llegar en forma de documentos, fotos, videos, audios. Puede ser una cantidad de datos tan grande que se mide en terabytes o una grabacion de unos pocos minutos. Lo importante es lo que se revela: corrupcion, crimenes de Estado, evasiones millonarias de impuestos, espionaje masivo de ciudadanos o doping. En un mundo en el que casi todo lo que se vende como noticia son declaraciones, propaganda o fake news, las filtraciones -vengan de donde vengan- descubren hechos. Para el autor de este libro, son el ultimo refugio del periodismo. Un periodismo que no se limita a reproducir anuncios y opiniones. Un periodismo que echa luz sobre los manejos mas opacos de gobiernos y corporaciones.Santiago ODonnell publico tres exitosos libros sobre el tema -ArgenLeaks. Los cables de Wikileaks sobre la Argentina, de la A a la Z; PolitiLeaks. Todo lo que la politica argentina quiso esconder. Sus secretos en Wikileaks de la A a la Z y ArgenPapers. Los secretos de la Argentina offshore en los Panama Papers- y dirige Filtraleaks, el primer sitio web dedicado exclusivamente a seguir casos de filtracion en la Argentina y el mundo.

President Trump threatens North Korea with fire and fury like the world has never seen, whilst fellow Republican John McCain warns that the country risks extinction. But what does the regime in North Korea actually want? Is Kim Jong-un truly the mad cartoon villain that the media love to portray?Without being an apologist for the oppressive North Korean government, T. J. Coles exposes the propaganda war waged against it, revealing the truth behind the simplistic news headlines. North Korea has made multiple offers to the international community to end its nuclear programme in exchange for assurances that it wont be attacked by the US. It has even committed to a no-first-use policy for nuclear weapons something the US itself will not do.Far from being a state in self-imposed hermitage, North Korea has diplomatic relations with over one hundred countries. It is the US, argues Coles, that deliberately seeks to isolate the regime as part of its wider geostrategic goals in the Asia Pacific. The USs real target, and ultimately its biggest challenge, is China. Coles debunks myths regarding North Koreas military and demonstrates that in actual fact it has limited capabilities. In building up its own armed forces in the region (the so-called Asia Pivot), the US is playing a dangerous game of nuclear brinkmanship.Fire and Fury provides a sharp, succinct briefing for anyone seeking a broader, less distorted and more balanced understanding of current events, whilst offering solutions for ordinary citizens who wish to further the cause of peace.

Foreign Policy, Most Anticipated Books of 2024 A stunning investigation and indictment of the elements in United States foreign lobbying industry and the threat they pose to democracy. For years, one group of Americans has worked as foot-soldiers for the most authoritarian regimes around the planet. In the process, theyve not only entrenched dictatorships and spread kleptocratic networks, but theyve secretly guided U.S. policy without the rest of America even being aware. And now, journalist Casey Michel contends some of them have begun turning their sights on American democracy itself. These Americans are known as foreign lobbyists, and many of them spent years ushering dictatorships directly into the halls of Washington, all while laundering the reputations of the most heinous, repressive regimes in the process. These lobbyists include figures like Ivy Lee, the inventor of the public relations industry - a man who whitewashed Mussolini, opened doors to the Soviets, and advised the Nazis on how to sway American audiences. They include people like Paul Manafort, who invented lobbying as we know it - and who then took his talents to autocrats from Ukraine to the Philippines, and then back to the White House. And they now include an increasing number of Americans elsewhere: in law firms and consultancies, among PR specialists and former lawmakers, and even within think tanks and universities. Many of these lobbyists have transformed into proxies for dictators and strongmen wherever they can be found. And for years, theyve escaped scrutiny. In Foreign Agents, Casey Michel shines a light on these foreign lobbyists, and all the damage and devastation they have caused in Washington and elsewhere. From Moscow to Beijing, from far-right nationalists to far-left communists, from anti-American autocrats to pro-Western authoritarians, these foreign lobbyists have helped any illiberal, anti-democratic government they can find. And after decades of success in installing dictator after dictator, and in tilting American policy in the process, some of these lobbyists have now begun trying to end Americas democratic experiment, once and for all.

Detail worthy of a John le Carre novel. Telegraph The history of modern Russia traditionally has Communism at its centre: Lenin defines its rise, Gorbachev its fall, and Putin its aftermath. In this radical new history, Yuri Felshtinsky and Vladimir Popov, however, introduce a new historical axis: the Chekathe Bolsheviks nebulous revolutionary intelligence service. Wrapped around the Party in a fight to the death from 1918 under its first head Felix Dzerzhinsky, only Stalin was able to resist its stranglehold at the cost of enormous bloodshed. Luring Russia into submission over less than a century, its murder-plots and unrivalled scheming culminated in the capture of the Kremlin in 2000. Drawing on Popovs secret documents of over two decades as a senior officer in one of the KGBs key covert sections, and on Felshtinskys encyclopedic knowledge of Russian state archives open in the 1990s, little-known sources, and access to leading oligarchs, a new Russian history emerges. The story they tell is often unexpected while introducing a new cast of characters still of great influencepotentially surpassing Lenins roleon our world today. From Red Terror to Terrorist State is the first complete history of the Cheka. Written from the inside, it fundamentally transforms our understanding of Russia and rethinks the way todays Kremlin views itself and the rest of the world. Animated by lifelong study, this authoritative narrative by two exceptional Russian-intelligence experts presents ground-breaking new insights based on an unrivalled wealth of new factual details.

Gaza, tierra palestina cercada y pueblo encarcelado, es uno de los epicentros del conflicto general que sacude a los países de Oriente Medio desde hace casi un siglo. Agustín Remesal cruzó decenas de veces el paso militar de Eretz durante los años en que ejercio de corresponsal de TVE en Oriente Medio. Asistio en Gaza a la batalla desigual de los palestinos, a pedradas, contra los blindados israelies; presencio el desgarro del dolor y de la muerte cuando los misiles certeros mataban a decenas de palestinos. Desde el escenario de los acontecimientos conto la misteriosa muerte de Arafat, la desaparicion inmortal de Ariel Sharon, la retirada de los colonos judios de Gaza y el ascenso de los islamistas al poder. En este libro narra el trasfondo y los pormenores de esos hechos, que a veces no caben en una cronica para la television. Con la pasion del testigo y la distancia del periodista, describe la violencia y se conmueve con el odio que la misma engendra. No cabe, segun el, mas crueldad en esa franja de tierra, habitada por un millon y medio de prisioneros al sol. Enero de 2011. Rafah, Gaza: centenares de miles de palestinos cruzan la frontera y entran en Egipto pisando la valla de hierro derribada por las bombas de Hamas. Se ha abierto la puerta del sur. Es el sindrome de la jaula, el sindrome de Gaza.

Geoffrey Prime was a Soviet spy throughout the most intense years of the Cold War. The linguist served his paymasters for almost fourteen years and became the most important Russian mole in British signals intelligence since German Enigma decryptions were leaked from Bletchley Park during World War Two. Recruited while serving in Berlin with the Royal Air Force, he became uniquely placed to betray his countrys innermost secrets when he later obtained employment at the nerve-centre of government communications, GCHQ. By various clandestine methods of transcription and meetings overseas with his controllers, Prime divulged information on a massive scale until shortly before his arrest. His eventual downfall lay in an inability to control his lust for pre-pubescent girls and the conscience of a wife unable to live with the knowledge that her husband was not only a child molester but also an espionage agent. This is an involved story of debased morality and dishonour, siezed upon by an unscrupulous regime to its own advantage, and unearthed by unsuspecting provincial detectives in a tale of a police investigation on an unprecedented scale.
