Estos ensayos analizan las representaciones de la violencia política en América Latina y reflexionan sobre sus implicaciones éticas e históricas. El nexo entre memoria y violencia política, los dilemas esteticos que plantea su representacion literaria y visual, el lugar del intelectual y del arte frente a ella, los usos del lenguaje, su incidencia en lo real, la necesidad de analizar los origenes ideologicos, economicos y culturales que han "justificado" la violencia extrema, especialmente estatal, exponen la complejidad y actualidad de las polemicas que dan origen a esta antologia.

Como se señaló en la presentación del primer tomo, este texto es el resultado de la investigación sobre los fundamentos constitucionales del derecho procesal penal. Esta obra ha dado especial importancia al derecho comparado, al analisis jurisprudencial, tanto de decisiones foraneas y de tribunales internacionales como de sentencias internas, especialmente de la Sala Penal de la Corte Suprema de Justicia y de la Corte Constitucional, y a la doctrina especializada nacional y extranjera.Igualmente se examinan los aspectos centrales y estructurales del juicio oral, para lo cual se hace especial enfasis en la acusacion y el juzgamiento. Asi mismo estudiaremos lo relacionado con la terminacion anticipada del proceso penal, el allanamiento a la imputacion, las negociaciones y los preacuerdos. Finalmente, ahondaremos en los mecanismos de control y proteccion de los derechos fundamentales dentro del proceso penal. Por esta razon, necesariamente se estudiara el contenido conceptual del derecho y la garantia fundamental al debido proceso, lo atinente a las nulidades y al sistema de control constitucional en el proceso penal. Rendimos un sincero homenaje al Prof Dr. h. c. multo Fernando Hinestrosa, quien durante su rectoria nos dio su apoyo incondicional en el proceso de elaboracion de esta obra. A el expresamos nuestro sentimiento de gratitud. Jaime Bernal Cuellar, Eduardo Montealegre Lynett

Art and politics are related through repetition. Both realms are structured by practices of repetition and share a common room of sens(e)uality aesthetics in the emphatic sense of the word. It is the aesthetics and practices of repetition that reveal the relation between both realms. This volume proposes to explore aesthetic and cultural phenomena that effect change in the non-aesthetical realm, not so much in spite, but precisely because of their being mere repetitions.Repetition shapes art works through procedures and processes of reproduction, copying, depiction, or reenactment. As representation of the world, mimetic arts relationship to the political and social world can be conceived as repetition. When can mimetic works of art nonetheless become a trigger, participant in or vehicle for political and social transformation? How do mimetic practices as diverse as those of the Research Institute Forensic Architecture, the theater of Milo Rau, video installations with found footage from social media and the fictional NSK State address and change regimes of visibility? How can practices such as performative gender constitution and propaganda, which (ostensibly) affirm regimes of visibility, be understood as processes of change through repetition? How do commemorative cultures and practices of documentation interrelate? How is historical reality produced through mimesis with a view to an imaginary political future?By exploring works of art from a wide range of historical periods, places, media and contexts from the political thought hidden in Hegels Aesthetics through Helene Cixouss practice of writing difference(s), from contemporary applied theater through the Gezi Park Uprising in 2013, and from installations of fictional national museums through to the artistic commemoration of assassinated political activists in Iran all contributions in this volume attempt to show how a concept of change through repetition can help redefine the relationship between art and politics and to enlighten us on the transformative potential of repetition in political art.

Seven years after the Arab uprisings, the social situation has deteriorated across the Middle East and North Africa. Political, economic and personal insecurities have expanded while income from oil declined and tourist revenues have collapsed due to political instability. Against a backdrop of escalating armed conflicts and disintegrating state structures, many have been forced from their homes, creating millions of internally displaced persons and refugees. Young people are often the ones hit hardest by the turmoil. How do they cope with these ongoing uncertainties, and what drives them to pursue their own dreams in spite of these hardships? In this landmark volume, an international interdisciplinary team of researchers assess a survey of 9,000 sixteen- to thirty-year-olds from Bahrain, Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon, Morocco, Palestine, Syria, Tunisia and Yemen, resulting in the most comprehensive, in-depth study of young people in the MENA region to date. Given how rapidly events have moved in the Middle East and North Africa, the findings are in many regards unexpected.

Die Enthullung der Panama Papers im April 2016 machte erneut deutlich, welche globale Wirkmacht Skandale entfalten konnen. Skandale bringen Politiker zu Fall, sturzen Wirtschaftslenker und beenden Sportkarrieren. Sie kommen in jedem gesellschaftlichen Feld vor, fuhren zu enormer medialer Berichterstattung und zu einer lebhaften offentlichen Diskussion uber Werte und Normen sie sind ein soziales Phanomen.Als solches stellen Skandale sehr haufig auch einen Forschungsgegenstand unterschiedlicher Wissenschaften dar: Politikwissenschaftler analysieren zum Beispiel die Funktionsfahigkeit von politischen Regeln und Institutionen, die Kommunikationswissenschaft untersucht mogliche Wirkungen von Skandalberichterstattung und den Verlauf von Affaren in unterschiedlichen Medien, in der Literaturwissenschaft werden Skandalautoren und ihr offentliches Verhalten thematisiert, die Soziologie blickt auf den Geltungsbereich gesellschaftlicher Werte und Normen, die sich durch Skandaldiskurse verandern konnen.Der Band Scandalogy vereint Beitrage internationaler Forscherinnen und Forscher zum Themenfeld Skandal. Er prasentiert sowohl empirische Studien als auch theoretische Erkenntnisse, die 2016 bei der 1st International Conference in Scandalogy an der Universitat Bamberg prasentiert wurden. Die Bandbreite reicht von kommunikationswissenschaftlichen Studien bis hin zu literaturwissenschaftlichen Analysen. Die Vielzahl der Facher, die sich mit dem sozialen Phanomen des Skandals beschaftigen, zeigt, dass Skandalogie ein eigenstandiger Forschungsbereich ist.

Foreword Reviews INDIEFAB Honorable MentionGenuine Compassion, Expert UnderstandingExplore the New Edition of Understanding Gender DysphoriaFew topics spark more debate today than gender identity, fueling intense discussions across social, political, and cultural spheres. Complex issues like gender dysphoria are often oversimplified into slogans and sound bites, overlooking the lived experiences of those affected and making understanding even more difficult in an increasingly divided discourse.Mark Yarhouse, an expert in sexual identity and therapy, challenges the church to rise above the political hostilities and listen to peoples stories. In Understanding Gender Dysphoria, Yarhouse combines Biblical principles and scholarly research to offer a Christian perspective on transgender issues that eschews simplistic answers and appreciates both psychological and theological complexity. The result is a book that engages the latest research while remaining pastorally sensitive to the experiences of each person.In this updated edition, youll find updated sources and references, language that reflects the most recent Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5-TR), and new content on more recent trends, including rising numbers of young people identifying as transgender and non-binary. If you are a pastor, counselor, or someone simply seeking to better understand individuals navigating questions of gender identity, now is the time to act with compassion and courage. Understanding Gender Dysphoria is an essential guide for those who wish to approach this topic with empathy and informed insight. Order your copy today and answer the call to come alongside those on the margins as they resolve their questions and concerns about gender identity.About the SeriesChristian Association for Psychological Studies (CAPS) Books explore how Christianity relates to mental health and behavioral sciences including psychology, counseling, social work, and marriage and family therapy in order to equip Christian clinicians to support the well-being of their clients.

The War in Our Backyard is a novel study of the German press textual and visual coverage of the wars in Bosnia (19921995) and Kosovo (19981999). Key moments from both wars have been selected and analysed using a broad range of publications reaching from far-right to far-left and including broadsheets, a tabloid and a news magazine. Two sections with parallel chapters form the core of the book: the first part dealing with the war in Bosnia and the second with Kosovo. Each section contains one chapter on the initial phase of the conflict, one chapter on an important atrocity namely the Srebrenica Massacre in Bosnia and the Raak incident in Kosovo and, lastly, a chapter each on the international involvement which ended the immediate violence. The book examines how the various events were covered, what sources were used and what insights these examples of the German press conveyed.Special attention has been paid to four key themes, which emerged from the research. Firstly, the changing perceptions of the Serbian President Slobodan Miloevic and the issue of who was to blame for the conflicts; secondly, how various armed forces, including the Yugoslav Peoples Army and the Kosovo Liberation Army were presented in the German press; thirdly, the persistent presence of the Second World War and the Holocaust in the coverage of the wars in Bosnia and Kosovo and how they shaped the press interpretation of the violence; and lastly, how Germanys role in the Balkans both in the realms of diplomacy and military intervention was evaluated by the national press. Pictures and cartoons accompanying the textual coverage have been included to present a more rounded picture of press coverage.

Is there one visual culture or are there multiple visual cultures? On the one hand, it is obvious that images do not exist and cannot be understood independently. Rather, they are embedded in institutions and cultural contexts. This common ground suggests an understanding of visual culture as a singular phenomenon. On the other hand the plurality of pictorial representations - from Sitcoms to illustrations in childrens books, from cartoons to satellite photos, from high art to everyday life - suggests the conception of visual culture as a singular phenomenon to be misleading. The visual world is a field of conflict and tension between self and other, mainstream and counterculture.The articles in this book include both theoretical reflections on the dialectics of visual culture(s) as well as case studies. The focus lies on examples from the U.S. American context - from the focusing on Native Americans as the Vanishing Race in the 19th-century Photography to the TV coverage of the Columbia Space Shuttle Disaster in February, 2003. This book is therefore highly recommendable to both students and scholars of American Studies als well as those interested in the interdisciplinary debate on visual culture(s).

Christianity Today 2019 Book of the Year Award, Politics and Public LifeAcross the globe, acts of violence against women produce more deaths, disability, and mutilation than cancer, malaria, and traffic accidents combined.The truth is that violence on such a scale could not exist were it not structured in some way into the very fabric of societies and cultures themselves. It could not continue if it were not somehow supported by deep assumptions about the value of women, or some justification of the use of power. In many cultures such assumptions are reiterated every day in the absence of legal protection for women, or indifference toward issues of human rights.In Scars Across Humanity, Elaine Storkey offers a rigorously researched overview of this global pandemic. From female infanticide and child brides to domestic abuse, prostitution, rape, and honor killings, violence against women occurs at all stages of life, and in all cultures and societies. How and why has this violence become so prevalent? It seems ambitious to hope that we can find an answer to this question, but if violence to women is ever to be eliminated, we need to know what we are up against.

El presente libro ofrece una aproximación a los estudios sobre la Ciudad de México a partir de las subjetividades que en esta se producen. Los textos ponen en evidencia cómo el diseño y las políticas de desarrollo urbano de la Ciudad de Mexico han producido, condicionado y reproducido la estratificacion y la desigualdad social, asi como las formas de organizacion, solidaridad, participacion y accion tanto individual como colectiva. Asimismo, lo largo de las reflexiones vemos como emergen constantemente subjetividades y acciones que resisten, subvierten y transforman dicha (infra)estructura y politicas; por ello, la relevancia de los sujetos y las subjetividades megaurbanas su experiencia, agencia, resiliencia, etcetera se tornan centrales para vislumbrar verdaderamente la complejidad de la Ciudad de Mexico. Derivado de lo anterior, el presente libro esta organizado a partir de tres ejes de analisis de las subjetividades megaurbanas articulaciones esteticas, experiencia y resiliencia, y participacion politica, a traves de los cuales diecinueve investigadores de diversas universidades exploran algunas rutas de compresion.

Las Reflexiones basadas en Género son una compilación de repertorios de resistencia, incidencia y movilización social en clave feminista. Desde las artes, los saberes y la investigación, textos e ilustraciones comparten experiencias academicas, comunitarias, militantes y politicas. En este libro se discuten determinaciones economicas, ideologicas y culturales dominantes que naturalizan lugares de opresion, explotacion y discriminacion a traves de la apropiacion de los cuerpos, los territorios, las identidades y los lugares de enunciacion.Algunas Reflexiones interrogan el Genero como categoria binaria que sostiene mandatos machistas y misoginos desde una posicion epistemica que reproduce el discurso de la normalizacion de la sexualidad; otras comparten experiencias sanadoras y de reparacion, que si bien no se configuran como terapeuticas, posibilitan nombrar, transitar y resignificar violencias desde la escritura y la literatura; finalmente, otras comparten la experiencia de incorporar una perspectiva de genero en las organizaciones politicas mixtas, reivindicando las luchas de las mujeres, diversidades sexuales y disidencias del genero por sus derechos en estos espacios.Este libro es un ejercicio colectivo que articula a activistas, organizaciones politicas y feministas de la region con la Universidad del Valle seccional Buga. Invita a compartir e intercambiar apuestas de movilizacion social en defensa de los derechos humanos.

Numerosos investigadores han analizado los artículos y los productos occidentales llegados a Japón en diversas épocas. No obstante, tales investigaciones atañen básicamente a los textiles y específicamente a la seda en crudo.Esta obra aporta un examen a los productos lujosos llevados a Japon durante los siglos XVI y XVII gracias a los nanban (españoles y portugueses) y a los holandeses. Azucar y tabaco, por ejemplo.El extraordinario impacto del comercio de estos bienes en la economia mundial es tal que podria afirmarse que durante los siglos pasados su comercializacion cambio la historia del mundo y su economia. A la luz de esta influencia, este ensayo analiza el comercio de dichos rubros y de otros articulos de lujo llegados a la ciudad de Nagasaki en manos de comerciantes occidentales.

Este provocativo libro de ensayos, escrito por varios autores, se sumerge en un profundo análisis de la ineficacia y la inmoralidad del Estado moderno. Tomando como punto de partida la famosa serie "Peaky Blinders", los autores argumentan audazmente que, en algunos aspectos, la mafia puede ofrecer una gestion mas efectiva y etica que el propio Estado.A traves de una serie de ensayos meticulosamente investigados, los autores exploran como la burocracia estatal a menudo se convierte en un obstaculo para el progreso y la justicia. Comparando las estructuras organizativas de los Peaky Blinders con las del gobierno, se cuestiona si la delincuencia organizada podria proporcionar soluciones mas rapidas y equitativas en ciertas circunstancias.Este libro desafia las percepciones convencionales y abre un debate incisivo sobre el papel y la responsabilidad del Estado en la sociedad contemporanea. "Peaky Blinders: La mafia es 1000 veces mejor que el Estado" es una obra valiente que busca desencadenar una conversacion en torno a la necesidad de una reforma profunda en la administracion gubernamental.

Descubre toda la verdad desde dentro. Las infiltraciones más temerarias de Antonio SalasAntonio Salas. El infiltrado incluye Diario de un skin, El año que trafiqué con mujeres y El Palestino.Diario de un skin, libro de no ficcion mas vendido en 2003, ha recibido tanto elogios como amenazas de muerte, ya que dicho libro sirvio como base documental, aportando informacion clave, en el macrojuicio contra la organizacion neonazi Hammerskin España. A este titulo le siguio otro igualmente polemico, El año que trafique con mujeres, donde se centraba en las redes de trata de blancas y cuya publicacion desencadeno la investigacion sobre los amos de la prostitucion española, asi como la llevada a cabo por el Gobierno mexicano acerca de la trata de niñas chiapanecas. Pero sin duda, en El palestino (2010) vivimos su investigacion mas arriesgada y ambiciosa hasta la fecha: una infiltracion en las redes del terrorismo internacional. La cara mas cruda del miedo, documentada con el rigor y la peculiar ironia de una de las voces mas autorizadas del escenario periodistico.
