This book was released on 2014-01-01 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El tema escogido para este trabajo, El periodo de responsabilidad del porteador en el transporte marítimo, obedece a una pregunta que desde antaño ha sobrevolado la mente de los juristas, académicos y prácticos, dedicados a las cuestiones marítimas: ¿cuáles son los extremos que acotan la responsabilidad del porteador en el viaje marítimo? El periodo de responsabilidad constituye, sin lugar a dudas, uno de los más importantes aspectos legales del contrato de transporte. Permite a las partes que participan en la ejecución de un contrato, especialmente al porteador, conocer en qué momento comienza y termina su responsabilidad, pudiendo estas anticipar sus riesgos y diseñar sus estrategias comerciales consecuentemente. Los ya cerca de un centenar de años de experiencia en su aplicación y análisis revelan sobradamente lo difícil que resulta la interpretación uniforme del Convenio de Bruselas de 1924 en este punto. Las Reglas de Hamburgo de 1978 supusieron un significativo avance, pero la escasa repercusión que han tenido en el panorama del comercio internacional ha llevado a su olvido. Recientemente UNCITRAL-CNUDMI ha elaborado un nuevo Instrumento que, por primera vez, pretende regular en su totalidad el contrato de transporte internacional de mercancías. Las Reglas de Rotterdam disciplinan de forma algo más precisa, aunque veremos si con igual éxito, el periodo de responsabilidad del porteador, tratando de dar solución a la disparidad doctrinal y jurisprudencial que en torno a este periodo existe. En medio de esta concurrencia de textos internacionales, nuestro país conoce desde 2014 una nueva Ley de Navegación Marítima. La opción elegida por el legislador parece haber acabado con la diversidad interpretativa, situando a nuestro país entre aquellos que disponen de una norma imperativa aplicable a esa fase portuaria del transporte.

Download or read book La responsabilidad del porteador mar timo written by Silvia Badiola Coca and published by J.M Bosch. This book was released on 2022-07-08 with total page 490 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La presente obra aborda la cuestión más destacada del contrato de transporte, y en especial del contrato de transporte marítimo internacional de mercancías: la responsabilidad del porteador y la carga de la prueba. El porteador asume la obligación de transportar las mercancías de un lugar a otro por vía marítima, y se constituye como uno de los principales actores del comercio marítimo. En el momento en el que el cargador pone a disposición del porteador las mercancías, pierde el control sobre las mismas y es entonces cuando sólo el porteador está en situación de proteger la carga para que llegue a destino incólume, en el mismo estado en el que la recibió. Por ese motivo, es de justicia responsabilizar al porteador por el incumplimiento contractual, pero es igualmente equitativo que se haga en su justa extensión y medida en aras de lograr un régimen adecuado. La extensión del régimen de responsabilidad del porteador ha sido el problema central en los Convenios Internacionales que regulan el contrato de transporte marítimo (e incluso en otros Convenios que regulan el transporte por otros modos), tal y como se desprende en el estudio de las Reglas de La Haya Visby y con posterioridad de las Reglas de Hamburgo y las Reglas de Rotterdam. El objetivo principal de esta monografía es identificar y evaluar la responsabilidad del porteador y la carga de la prueba (y de otros sujetos a lo que la regulación convencional imponga la responsabilidad en los mismos términos que al porteador) por los daños, pérdidas y retraso en la entrega de las mercancías en las Reglas de Rotterdam a través de la comparación con las Reglas de La Haya-Visby y Hamburgo, para finalmente concluir sobre la idoneidad del nuevo régimen adoptado por las Reglas de Rotterdam. Por otra parte, y directamente relacionado con lo anterior, se ha estimado conveniente realizar un breve estudio del régimen de responsabilidad del porteador de la Ley de Navegación Marítima española para dar a conocer su origen, contenido y la problemática que plantea su regulación.

Download or read book Media Technology and Literature in the Nineteenth Century written by Dr Colette Colligan and published by Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.. This book was released on 2013-05-28 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Operating at the intersection where new technology meets literature, this collection discovers the relationship among image, sound, and touch in the long nineteenth century. The chapters speak to the special mixed-media properties of literature, while exploring the important interconnections of science, technology, and art at the historical moment when media was being theorized, debated, and scrutinized. Each chapter focuses on a specific visual, acoustic, or haptic dimension of media, while also calling attention to the relationships among the three. Famous works such as Wordsworth's "I wandered lonely as a cloud" and Shelley's Frankenstein are discussed alongside a range of lesser-known literary, scientific, and pornographic writings. Topics include the development of a print culture for the visually impaired; the relationship between photography and narrative; the kaleidoscope and modern urban experience; Christmas gift books; poetry, painting and music as remediated forms; the interface among the piano, telegraph, and typewriter; Ernst Heinrich Weber's model of rationalized tactility; and how the shift from visual to auditory telegraphic instruments amplified anxieties about the place of women in nineteenth-century information networks. Full of surprising insights and connections, the collection offers new impetus for stimulating historical conversations and debates about nineteenth-century media, while also contributing fresh perspectives on new media and (re)mediation today.

Download or read book INRI written by Raúl Zurita and published by New York Review of Books. This book was released on 2018-12-11 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A harrowing meditation on tyranny, torture, and freedom by one of Chilé's most celebrated contemporary poets. Raúl Zurita’s INRI is a visionary response to the atrocities committed under the dictatorship of General Augusto Pinochet. In this deeply moving elegy for the dead, the whole of Chile, with its snow-covered cordilleras and fields of wildflowers, its empty spaces and the sparkling sea beyond, is simultaneously transformed into the grave of its lost children and their living and risen body. Zurita’s incantatory, unapologetically political work is one of the great prophetic poems of our new century.

Download or read book The Splendor of Portugal written by António Lobo Antunes and published by Deep Vellum Publishing. This book was released on 2011-09-20 with total page 393 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Splendor of Portugal's four narrators are members of a once well-to-do family whose plantation was lost in the Angolan War of Independence; the matriarch of this unhappiest of clans and her three adult children speak in a nightmarish, remorseless gush to give us the details of their grotesque family life. Like a character out of Faulkner's decayed south, the mother clings to the hope that her children will come back, save her from destitution, and restore the family's imagined former glory. The children, for their part, haven't seen each other in years, and in their isolation are tormented by feverish memories of Angola. The vitriol and self-hatred of the characters know no bounds, for they are at once victims and culprits, guilty of atrocities committed in the name of colonialism as well as the cruel humiliations and betrayals of their own kin. Antunes again proves that he is the foremost stylist of his generation, a fearless investigator into the worst excesses of the human animal.

Download or read book La responsabilidad del porteador y de las partes ejecutantes en las Reglas de Rotterdam written by López Rueda, Francisco Carlos and published by J.M Bosch. This book was released on 2015-11-03 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sin romper totalmente con la tradición jurídica en materia de transporte marítimo de mercancías, el convenio internacional conocido como “Reglas de Rótterdam” (2008) es el nuevo modelo que aspira a regir el transporte marítimo y parcialmente marítimo en el siglo XXI. El convenio establece un régimen de responsabilidad del porteador por pérdida, daño y retraso en la entrega de la mercancía más justo que el actual y, en buena medida, colma la laguna legal que afecta al transporte multimodal. No sólo contiene el estatuto jurídico del porteador marítimo, sino también de otros empresarios, denominados “partes ejecutantes marítimas”, como los transitarios, las terminales portuarias y los operadores de transporte multimodal, que participan en la cadena de transporte. Elaborado por Naciones Unidas (UNCITRAL) para incrementar los principios de uniformidad y seguridad jurídica en el comercio internacional, constituye el último hito en la evolución y desarrollo de la ciencia jurídica aplicada al transporte.

Download or read book Vlad written by Carlos Fuentes and published by Dalkey Archive Press. This book was released on 2012-07-18 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Where, Carlos Fuentes asks, is a modern-day vampire to roost? Why not Mexico City, populated by ten million blood sausages (that is, people), and a police force who won’t mind a few disappearances? “Vlad” is Vlad the Impaler, of course, whose mythic cruelty was an inspiration for Bram Stoker’s Dracula. In this sly sequel, Vlad really is undead: dispossessed after centuries of mayhem by Eastern European wars and rampant blood shortages. More than a postmodern riff on “the vampire craze,” Vlad is also an anatomy of the Mexican bourgeoisie, as well as our culture’s ways of dealing with death. For—as in Dracula—Vlad has need of both a lawyer and a real-estate agent in order to establish his new kingdom, and Yves Navarro and his wife Asunción fit the bill nicely. Having recently lost a son, might they not welcome the chance to see their remaining child live forever? More importantly, are the pleasures of middle-class life enough to keep one from joining the legions of the damned?

Download or read book Gender Shrapnel in the Academic Workplace written by Ellen Mayock and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-05-27 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book employs the image of “shrapnel,” bits of scattered metal that can hit purposeful targets or unwitting bystanders, to narrate the story of workplace power and gender discrimination. The project interweaves stories of gender shrapnel with an examination of national rhetoric surrounding business, education, and law to uncover underlying phenomena that contribute to discourse on privilege and gender in the academic workplace. Using concrete examples that serve as case studies for subsequent discussion of data about women in the workforce, language use and misuse, sexual harassment, silence and shutting up, and hiring, training, promotion, and the glass ceiling, Mayock explores the deeper implications of gender inequity in the workplace.
