En esta edición el lector encontrará una serie de breves relatos para niños que Leonora Carrington dejó plasmados en una libreta de apuntes. Acompañados de dibujos, a veces de esbozos, de trazos sueltos, estas mini ficciones reunen el humor e imaginario que encontramos en otros textos de Carrington. Leche del sueño, libreta de apuntes, es una invitacion a visitar escenarios que la autora imagino para un publico infantil, en una escritura que hace contrapunto con su talento plastico y que nos muestra la intencion de esta autora por unir los vinculos de su literatura con su trabajo plastico. Leche del sueño es una obra viva, una invitacion a adentrarse en la imaginacion de Leonora Carrington con el mismo asombro que los niños que escucharon y leyeron sus cuentos por primera vez.

Lejos del aislamiento propio de décadas pasadas, las relaciones internacionales comienzan a suscitar una creciente curiosidad en nuestro país. De ahí el interés de la publicación en castellano de esta monumental obra de Charles Zorgbibe, que traza un panorama completo de los ultimos cien años de Historia de las Relaciones Internacionales. Dividida para esta edicion en dos volumenes, el primero parte De la Europa de Bismarck hasta el final de la Segunda Guerra Mundial, mientras que este segundo tomo, Del sistema de Yalta hasta nuestros dias, resume y analiza los acontecimientos internacionales mas destacados ocurridos desde 1945: como el desarrollo de la Guerra Fria, los conflictos de Vietnam y Corea, la crisis de los misiles en Cuba, las confrontaciones de Oriente Proximo, las descolonizaciones de Asia y Africa, la epoca de las dictaduras en Latinoamerica, el fin de la Guerra Fria, la guerra del Golfo y la implantacion de un nuevo sistema de relaciones entre paises. El traductor de la obra, Miguel Angel Vecino Quintana, ha llevado a cabo una intensa busqueda bibliografica, seleccionando para la ocasion una serie de documentos que ilustran los numerosos acontecimientos historicos descritos. Ademas, cada volumen incorpora un apendice con las biografias de los personajes mas relevantes del periodo y un indice onomastico.

El presente libro es el material básico para la preparación de la asignatura del mismo nombre, optativa del cuarto curso del Grado de Criminología impartido en la UNED. Siendo el terrorismo un metodo utilizado por actores no estatales para, a traves del uso de la violencia, alcanzar sus objetivos politicos, en la obra se estudian aspectos relevantes del mismo. Desde su aparicion en Europa en la segunda mitad del siglo XIX, hasta su expansion por todo el mundo durante el siglo XX y su perduracion en el XXI, el terrorismo es estudiado en diversas dimensiones. La primera permite aclarar como y por que no hay una definicion internacionalmente aceptada del mismo. A continuacion se profundiza en las diversas etapas marcadas por multiples actores, actuando en escenarios geograficos varios que, desde distintas aproximaciones ideologicas, van llevando dicho metodo a la practica hasta la actualidad. Finalmente se estudian las respuestas que Estados y Organizaciones Internacionales vienen dando.

Espejo de diplomáticos, Bruno García-Dobarco Liber Amicorum. Su carrera profesional breve pero sobresaliente. Biblioteca Diplomática Española.

Si en la mayor parte de las memorias a las que he tenido acceso el autor se empeña en mostrar los momentos cruciales de su vida y su profesión, insinuando a la chita callando que su papel fue decisivo en el curso de la historia, en estos relatos se han intentado enfocar las pequeñas cosas, las anecdotas mas amables, procurando el autor evitar apuntarse el merito de los i...

Paul Krugman, uno de los economistas más famosos del momento actual, nos ofrece en este libro, escrito para el gran público, la crítica de una serie de ideas erróneas que están siendo difundidas con el apoyo y el aval de muchos gobiernos: la competitividad que los politicos esgrimen para justificar lo injustificable, la cinica advertencia de que el desarrollo economico del tercer mundo amenaza la prosperidad de los paises desarrollados, o la gran mentira de que la prosperidad general esta garantizada con la simple combinacion de un mercado libre y una moneda solida. Krugman nos invita aqui a rechazar los sombrios dictamenes de un saber convencional sin fundamento cientifico, que nos condenaria a la pasividad y a la resignacion, y a darnos cuenta de que nuestro futuro economico puede ser mucho mejor si nos enfrentamos a el sin topicos ni falacias.
