Download or read book Urbicide written by Fernando Carrión Mena and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-03-23 with total page 930 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book uses the reflection of academics specialized in the urban area of Latin America, Europe and the United States, to initiate a comparative debate of the different dynamics in which Urbicidio expresses itself. The field or focal point of analysis that this publication approaches is the city, but under a new critical perspective of inverse methodology to that has been traditional used. It is about understanding the structural causes of self-destruction to finally thinking better and then going from pessimism to optimism. It is a deep look at the city from an unconventional entrance, because it is about knowing and analyzing what the city loses by the action deployed by own urbanites, both in the field of its production and in the field of its consumption. This suppose that the city does not have an ascending linear sequential evolution in its development but neither in each of its parts in the improvement process, showing the face that commonly not seen but others live. The category used for this purpose is that of Urbicidio or the death of the city, which contributes theoretically and methodologically to the knowledge of the city, as well as to the design of urban policies that neutralize it. In addition, it is worth mentioning that the book has an inclusive view of the authors. For this reason, gender parity, territorial representation and the presence of age groups have been sought.

Download or read book The Cuba Interviews written by T. K. Hernández and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-08-12 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a collection of meticulously gathered interviews with government officials, ambassadors, and executives involved in foreign investment and economic development in Cuba. The interviews, many for the first time with a foreign journalist, are valuable from a historical perspective and as a story of development. It offers an “open window” on Cuba into a crucial segment of the country’s economy, erroneously perceived by some as “shuttered” to the outside world. This work is structured by the contextual history of Obama’s opening with Cuba, the bleak days of Trump, the Havana Syndrome, the onset of the pandemic, the election of Biden, and his “unmet promises”, through to economic recovery of the island under the post-pandemic normal. It highlights the work of the ones who lead and invest, create opportunities for themselves and others, initiate change, trigger sustainable development, build infrastructure, improve lives, strengthen the economy, lessen suffering, and create hope. They stimulate forward progress. These are the visionaries with plans seeking to realize the full potential of Cuba, driving a new era of sustainable development and growth. By filling those gaps, this work is an important supplement for any future analysis seeking to examine the country’s potential. The book is divided into parts: government, economy, foreign investment, industrial zones, banking, law, and business, followed by interviews with top executives from Cuba’s primary sectors. This “open window” on Cuba is a compelling fresh take that shows that Cuba is open for serious business.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sixteenth in a series of annual reports comparing business regulation in 190 economies, Doing Business 2019 measures aspects of regulation affecting 10 areas of everyday business activity: • Starting a business • Dealing with construction permits • Getting electricity • Registering property • Getting credit • Protecting minority investors • Paying taxes • Trading across borders • Enforcing contracts • Resolving insolvency These areas are included in the distance to frontier score and ease of doing business ranking. Doing Business also measures features of labor market regulation, which is not included in these two measures.

The report updates all indicators as of May 1, 2018, ranks economies on their overall 'ease of doing business', and analyzes reforms to business regulation -- identifying which economies are strengthening their business environment the most. Doing Business illustrates how reforms in business regulations are being used to analyze economic outcomes for domestic entrepreneurs and for the wider economy. It is a flagship product produced in partnership by the World Bank Group that garners worldwide attention on regulatory barriers to entrepreneurship. Almost 140 economies have used the Doing Business indicators to shape reform agendas and monitor improvements on the ground.
Download or read book Deinstitutionalizing Art of the Nomadic Museum written by Eva Marxen and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-04-23 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Deinstitutionalizing Art of the Nomadic Museum explores the possibility of the "nomadic museum" to facilitate social and political resistance through engagement with critical art practices and imagery. Grounded in a decade-long art therapy project in a contemporary art museum setting, this book offers a theoretically rich conceptualization of this experience. The text establishes an institutional critique of both the dominant psychopathology discourse and the instrumentalizations of art practices. Innovative in its approach, the results are analyzed in the framework of subjects such as hegemony-subalternity, subjectivity, resistance, the nomadic, critical art practices, narratives and minor language, deinstitutionalization, anti-psychiatries as well as institutional therapy. With a special focus on Latin America, international artists’ writings and works are intersected with the thoughts of curators and museum decision makers. The inevitable connection of the arts with social and political fields is highlighted, enabling the exploration of the intersections of art, critical analysis, social science, psychoanalysis, and political philosophy. This text will be of great interest to graduate and postgraduate students, academics, researchers, libraries and museums curators in the fields of art therapy, psychoanalysis, contemporary art, social & cultural anthropology, and political philosophy.
Download or read book Resumen Desleal Una Memoria Michael Cohen written by Scott Campbell and published by Campbell. This book was released on 2021-02-15 with total page 55 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ¡ADVERTENCIA !: La administración Trump preferiría que no leyera este libro de resumen porque revela el lado más oscuro del presidente Trump según lo testificó su perro de ataque personal y consigliere durante más de una década, Michael Cohen. Este es un libro de resumen y no pretende reemplazar el libro original de Michael Cohen. Hipnotizado por Trump como un miembro de una secta, Cohen comenzó a verse a sí mismo rompiendo su código moral, pero se quedó con Trump por dinero, poder y fama. Cohen se jacta de que conocía a Trump mejor que a su propia familia y no era un espectáculo agradable. Vio a Trump como un jefe mafioso sociópata que haría cualquier cosa para ganar y destruir a cualquiera que lo desafiara en su búsqueda del éxito. Cohen arroja un camión lleno de esqueletos de la familia Trump a los pies del lector y luego los recoge uno por uno y ejecuta un meticuloso show-and-tell. La estrella porno Stormy Daniels y la favorita de Playboy en la página central Karen McDougall son un dolor inolvidable para Trump y él pide a Cohen, el "reparador", que "se encargue de eso". Según Cohen, Trump no piensa en endurecer a los contratistas, o explotar a las viudas en bancarrota para obtener ganancias, o hacer trampa en las encuestas de opinión pública, o inflar o desinflar el valor de sus propiedades, o el concepto de sobornar a la mafia para completar un proyecto de construcción que aprendió. de su padre. Cohen es testigo del fracaso del imperio comercial y de bienes raíces de Trump, su milagrosa campaña política y el comienzo de su presidencia antes de que la investigación del fiscal especial de Mueller lo lleve a la cárcel con los brazos fuertes. Cohen cita ejemplos para mostrar que Trump era un matón, un probable adúltero, un mentiroso patológico, un tramposo amoral, un fanático con respecto a los homosexuales y la religión, y un racista ocasional. También muestra las asombrosas fortalezas, habilidades y habilidades de Trump y por qué pensó, originalmente, que Trump sería un buen presidente. Cohen pasó años animándolo a correr. Esta historia es de lectura obligada porque contiene información nueva y privilegiada sobre cómo la persona más poderosa del mundo es una personalidad más fea y cómo, sin embargo, ascendió a su posición de autoridad y lo que podría estar a la vista para el futuro. Este es un resumen y análisis de los más vendidos de Scott Campbell. No es el libro original. Los libros importantes exigen un amplio conocimiento y lectores. Desleal: A Memoir es uno de ellos. Utilice este libro de análisis y resumen de los más vendidos para: # 1 Decide si el libro original es para ti. Pista: ¡lo es! # 2 Obtenga puntos principales capítulo por capítulo y conclusiones. # 3 Obtenga una mejor comprensión, # 4 Aprenda lo que debe saber en menos de 60 minutos. # 5 Refresque su memoria del libro para padres.
