Los desafíos que se han planteado durante la segunda década del siglo XXI no son los mismos que los de finales del siglo pasado y, por ello, el trabajo a favor de la paz necesita una revisión a fondo. En este libro, que tiene una intención didáctica, Vicenç Fisas intenta sintetizar una agenda temática en forma de decálogo, agrupando y seleccionando los grandes temas que, desde su punto de vista, constituyen los ejes centrales de un trabajo por la paz para la época actual, mirados desde un prisma holístico. Más allá de evitar las guerras, el trabajo por la paz ha de incluir componentes que son propios de varios movimientos sociales y políticos, en una suma de esfuerzos multidimensionales, donde la justicia social, la salud del planeta y la satisfacción de las necesidades humanas básicas juegan un papel decisivo. Nunca habíamos tenido problemas tan globales como en el presente, y el cambio climático es una muestra de ello, por lo que cualquier agenda de actuación, con su análisis previo, ha de tener esa mirada sobre el conjunto del planeta. Toca pensar más allá de nuestras fronteras y, por consiguiente, trazar líneas de actuación que puedan compartirse desde cualquier lugar del planeta. Establecer los pasos a seguir para este proceso, de forma realista, pero ambiciosa al mismo tiempo, puede ser un buen comienzo, pero para ello habrá que hacer propuestas concretas y someterlas a debate..
Since the formation of the United Nations in 1945 the world has changed dramatically. The intention of the original signatories was to protect future generations from the scourge of war, to reaffirm the faith in human rights and the dignity of the individual and to promote social progress. How has the UN matched up to these expectations? Is there a good argument that now, in the 1990s, the UN should undergo radical reform?
This artist's book accompanies the exhibition of a collaborative project by Swiss artist Ursula Biemann and Brazilian architect Paulo Tavares, presented at the Eli and Edythe Broad Art Museum, MSU in August 2014. Forest Law is a dynamic visual-textual engagement with the legal, ecological, cosmological and scientific dimensions of the tropical forest in the Ecuadorian Amazon. A trajectory through a transforming landscape, the book illuminates a series of legal cases and indigenous struggles for the rights of nature, incorporating text fragments, video stills and newly designed maps as well as a selection from legal documents, historical archives and other research material. This publication is coupled with the exhibition catalogue The Land Grant: Forest Law.
Examining women writers from Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Peru, and Colombia, this book traces the contradictions inherent in revolutionary movements that, while arguing for the rights of all, remained ambivalent, at best, about the place of women. It reveals the complex role of women in shaping the vexed ideologies of independence.
From the Holocaust in Europe to the military dictatorships of Latin America to the enduring violence of settler colonialism around the world, genocide has been a defining experience of far too many societies. In many cases, the damaging legacies of genocide lead to continued violence and social divisions for decades. In others, however, creative responses to this identity-based violence emerge from the grassroots, contributing to widespread social and political transformation. Resonant Violence explores both the enduring impacts of genocidal violence and the varied ways in which states and grassroots collectives respond to and transform this violence through memory practices and grassroots activism. By calling upon lessons from Germany, Poland, Argentina, and the Indigenous United States, Resonant Violence demonstrates how ordinary individuals come together to engage with a violent past to pave the way for a less violent future.
The account of Fidel Castro's rise to power is not complete without mention of the failed atacks of July 26, 1953, on the Cuban army garrisons at Moncada and Bayamo. This text views this initial overthrow attempt as a propaganda victory that marked the start of Castro's ascent to national power.
Latin America has historically been a fertile ground where utopian projects, movements, and experiments could take root and thrive. Each of the thirteen authors in this collective volume address a particular case or specific aspect of Latin American utopianism from colonial times to the present day. The America that the Spanish and Portuguese discovered became, from the sixteenth century onwards, a space in which it was possible to imagine the widest variety of forms of human coexistence. Utopias in Latin America reconsiders the sense and understanding of utopias in various historical frames: the discovery of indigenous cultures and their natural environments; the foundation of new towns and cities in a vast colonial territory; the experimental communities of nineteenth-century utopian socialists and European exiled intellectuals; and the innovative formulae that attempts to get beyond twentieth-century capitalism.
