Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aunque sus raíces se encuentran en las primeras tecnologías de cohetes ylas tensiones internacionales que siguieron a la Segunda Guerra Mundial, la carrera espacial comenzó después del lanzamiento soviético del Sputnik 1 el 4 de octubre de 1957. La carrera espacial se convirtió en una parte importante de la rivalidad cultural y tecnológica entre URSS y Estados Unidos durante la Guerra Fría. La exploración espacial moderna está llegando a áreas increíbles. Marte es el punto focal de la exploración espacial. A largo plazo, existen planes tentativos para misiones orbitales tripuladas y de aterrizaje a la Luna y Marte, estableciendo puestos de avanzada científica que luego darán paso a asentamientos permanentes y autosuficientes. La exploración adicional implicará potencialmente expediciones y asentamientos en otros planetas y sus lunas, así como el establecimientode puestos avanzados de minería y abastecimiento de combustible, particularmente en el cinturón de asteroides. La exploración física fuera del sistema solar será robótica en el futuro previsible.

Download or read book Public Catalyst written by Manuel Bailo and published by Actar D, Inc.. This book was released on 2022-03-11 with total page 355 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Demonstrates the existence of public space catalysts, as well as the need for their presence for an expectant or indifferent place to be activated. This work -- which understands that the city, now and always, has had and must have public spaces of intensity -- proposes urban catalysts as agents that are capable of activating a place that was previously indifferent. The comparative work of historical and recent cases, developed by research and drawings, has allowed us to discover that the vivid public spaces of identity and reference have been formed due to the urban effect caused by these agents that we call "catalysts." Manuel Bailo's work includes a wide range of projects, ranging from urban scale to interiorism. It has been widely published and presented with awards. Co-published with University of Virginia: School of Architecture.

Download or read book International Migration in Cuba written by Margarita Cervantes-Rodríguez and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2015-08-26 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the arrival of the Spanish conquerors at the beginning of the colonial period, Cuba has been hugely influenced by international migration. Between 1791 and 1810, for instance, many French people migrated to Cuba in the wake of the purchase of Louisiana by the United States and turmoil in Saint-Domingue. Between 1847 and 1874, Cuba was the main recipient of Chinese indentured laborers in Latin America. During the nineteenth century as a whole, more Spanish people migrated to Cuba than anywhere else in the Americas, and hundreds of thousands of slaves were taken to the island. The first decades of the twentieth century saw large numbers of immigrants and temporary workers from various societies arrive in Cuba. And since the revolution of 1959, a continuous outflow of Cubans toward many countries has taken place—with lasting consequences. In this book, the most comprehensive study of international migration in Cuba ever undertaken, Margarita Cervantes-Rodríguez aims to elucidate the forces that have shaped international migration and the involvement of the migrants in transnational social fields since the beginning of the colonial period. Drawing on Fernand Braudel’s concept of longue durée, transnational studies, perspectives on power, and other theoretical frameworks, the author places her analysis in a much wider historical and theoretical perspective than has previously been applied to the study of international migration in Cuba, making this a work of substantial interest to social scientists as well as historians.

Download or read book Struggles for Recognition written by Juan Sebastián Ospina León and published by University of California Press. This book was released on 2021-03-16 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Struggles for Recognition traces the emergence of melodrama in Latin American silent film and silent film culture. Juan Sebastián Ospina León draws on extensive archival research to reveal how melodrama visualized and shaped the social arena of urban modernity in early twentieth-century Latin America. Analyzing sociocultural contexts through film, this book demonstrates the ways in which melodrama was mobilized for both liberal and illiberal ends, revealing or concealing social inequities from Buenos Aires to Bogotá to Los Angeles. Ospina León critically engages Euro-American and Latin American scholarship seldom put into dialogue, offering an innovative theorization of melodrama relevant to scholars working within and across different national contexts.
