This book was released on with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: España es una potencia mundial intelectual en la producción de desarrollos teóricos para la potenciación, afianzamiento y/o maduración de una largamente deseada auténtica cultura de Seguridad y Defensa en el país. Desde el convencimiento de que ese robusto corpus teórico ha dotado de esqueleto intelectual a la cultura de Seguridad en España, esta obra pone sus miras en qué haría falta para dar un paso más y acercarnos a países de nuestro entorno, cuya historia y circunstancias psicosociales les permiten gozar de un conocimiento ciudadano en estas materias mucho más normalizado y presente. Es decir: avanzar a una "fase 2". Siete destacados profesionales dan su punto de vista autorizado desde sus campos de experiencia. De este modo, conoceremos: -en detalle cómo, en muy pocos años, la Unidad Militar de Emergencias (UME) se ha ganado el corazón y el respeto de la mayoría de los españoles; -gracias a qué acciones la Guardia Civil es año tras año una de las instituciones más valoradas del Estado y cómo se puede aplicar eso a las FAS; -en qué medida pueden las Administraciones públicas autonómicas, provinciales y locales jugar un papel determinante, sacando además beneficio con ello; -de qué modo el amplísimo compromiso del Ministerio de Defensa con el ingente patrimonio natural y cultural bajo su gestión, acerca los militares a la población a la que sirven; -cómo la institución de la Reserva Voluntaria es un fruto y agente a la vez de la Cultura de Defensa y cómo debería cuidarse; -en qué sentido deberían evolucionar los contenidos militares en los medios de comunicación, informativos y de ficción, para conectar con el nuevo público; -y qué hace y qué puede hacer la cada vez más importante industria de Defensa española en pos de la difusión de esta Cultura. Así, el director general de Protección Civil y Emergencias del Ministerio del Interior, el General de División jefe de la Agrupación de Tráfico de la Guardia Civil, una letrada del Consejo de Estado; un General Auditor de la Subdirección de Patrimonio de la Dirección General de Infraestructura del Ministerio de Defensa; un senador; un periodista experto en comunicación en Seguridad, Defensa e Inteligencia; y un presidente de una empresa de alta tecnología y Defensa, exponen su experiencia y visiones de futuro acerca de la cultura de Defensa en España

This book was released on 1996 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While many professional translators believe the ability to translate is a gift that one either has or does not have, Allison Beeby Lonsdale questions this view. In her innovative book, Beeby Lonsdale demonstrates how teachers can guide their students by showing them how insights from communication theory, discourse analysis, pragmatics, and semiotics can illuminate the translation process. Using Spanish to English translation as her example, she presents the basic principles of translation through 29 teaching units, which are prefaced by objectives, tasks, and commentaries for the teacher, and through 48 task sheets, which show how to present the material to students. Published in English.

Download or read book Paper Cadavers written by Kirsten Weld and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2014-03-21 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Paper Cadavers, an inside account of the astonishing discovery and rescue of Guatemala's secret police archives, Kirsten Weld probes the politics of memory, the wages of the Cold War, and the stakes of historical knowledge production. After Guatemala's bloody thirty-six years of civil war (1960–1996), silence and impunity reigned. That is, until 2005, when human rights investigators stumbled on the archives of the country's National Police, which, at 75 million pages, proved to be the largest trove of secret state records ever found in Latin America. The unearthing of the archives renewed fierce debates about history, memory, and justice. In Paper Cadavers, Weld explores Guatemala's struggles to manage this avalanche of evidence of past war crimes, providing a firsthand look at how postwar justice activists worked to reconfigure terror archives into implements of social change. Tracing the history of the police files as they were transformed from weapons of counterinsurgency into tools for post-conflict reckoning, Weld sheds light on the country's fraught transition from war to an uneasy peace, reflecting on how societies forget and remember political violence.

Download or read book The Twilight of the Avant garde written by Jonathan Mayhew and published by Liverpool University Press. This book was released on 2009-01-01 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Twilight of the Avant-Garde addresses the central problem of contemporary Spanish poetry: the attempt to preserve the scope and ambition of modernist poetry at the end of the twentieth century. Offering a critical analysis of Luis Garcìa Montero’s “poetry of experience,” and the work of José Angel Valente and Antonio Gamoneda, among others, Mayhew challenges received notions about the value of poetic language in relation to the society and culture at large. Ultimately championing the survival of more challenging and ambitious modes of poetic writing in the postmodern age, this volume argues that the cultural ambition of modernist poetics remains alive and well in our age of cynicism.

Download or read book The North American Mosaic written by Commission for Environmental Cooperation (Montréal, Québec). Secretariat and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The North American Mosaic has four overarching features. First, it is, to the extent feasible, based on comparable information on the status and trends of major indicators of the state of the environment in Canada,Mexico, and the United States. Second, the report confirms that these three countries together make up an incredibly complex, dynamic, and interconnected ecosystem in which humans play a dominant and decisive role. Third, the report raises important and sometimes disquieting questions concerning the sustainability of some current trends. Finally, the report is a reminder that our economic, social, and physical well-being are utterly dependent on the life-sustaining services provided by nature. This report emphasizes the importance of developing mutually compatible economic, social, and environmental goals and policies across the three-country region.

Download or read book Manifesto of New Realism written by Maurizio Ferraris and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2014-12-01 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Philosophical realism has taken a number of different forms, each applied to different topics and set against different forms of idealism and subjectivism. Maurizio Ferraris's Manifesto of New Realism takes aim at postmodernism and hermeneutics, arguing against their emphasis on reality as constructed and interpreted. While acknowledging the value of these criticisms of traditional, dogmatic realism, Ferraris insists that the insights of postmodernism have reached a dead end. Calling for the discipline to turn its focus back to truth and the external world, Ferraris's manifesto—which sparked lively debate in Italy and beyond—offers a wiser realism with social and political relevance.
Download or read book Mahatma Gandhi written by Dennis Dalton and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2012-02-21 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dennis Dalton's classic account of Gandhi's political and intellectual development focuses on the leader's two signal triumphs: the civil disobedience movement (or salt satyagraha) of 1930 and the Calcutta fast of 1947. Dalton clearly demonstrates how Gandhi's lifelong career in national politics gave him the opportunity to develop and refine his ideals. He then concludes with a comparison of Gandhi's methods and the strategies of Martin Luther King Jr. and Malcolm X, drawing a fascinating juxtaposition that enriches the biography of all three figures and asserts Gandhi's relevance to the study of race and political leadership in America. Dalton situates Gandhi within the "clash of civilizations" debate, identifying the implications of his work on continuing nonviolent protests. He also extensively reviews Gandhian studies and adds a detailed chronology of events in Gandhi's life.
