Book excerpt: This highly anticipated monograph focuses on the architectural output of Enrique Browne, a talented and prolific Chilean architect and co-founder of Browne & Swett Arquitectos, based in Santiago. Over the last 40 years, this South American architect has been trying to reconcile natural and artificial worlds through architecture. They are one indissoluble unity. This book showcases in rich photographic detail how his innovative projects incorporate multiple environmental aspects that result in a complex, layered response to the challenges of place, form and identity in Chile. Browne’s practice has developed architectural designs in a diverse range of scales, with emphasis on sustainability and energy efficiency. This volume delves into Browne’s processes, such as developing variations of the “grapevine- structure” typology to create a “double green skin” as a green wall (or roof), to protect dwellings from the region’s strong westerly sun; or combining vegetation and its oxygenation benefits with building to counter pollution; or using both artificial and natural light as a “material” for illuminating spaces or volume. This book also includes commentary on the new zeitgeist surrounding modernity and the impacts of the digital and globalized world on architecture today. Highly regarded, and a prolific writer and designer, Enrique Browne has a unique way of looking at the world. Showcasing the wide range of his design, this title is sure to impress.

Download or read book The Judicial Response to Police Killings in Latin America written by Daniel M. Brinks and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2007-10-22 with total page 11 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book documents the corrosive effect of social exclusion on democracy and the rule of law. It shows how marginalization prevents citizens from effectively engaging even the best legal systems, how politics creeps into prosecutorial and judicial decision making, and how institutional change is often nullified by enduring contextual factors. It also shows how some institutional arrangements can overcome these impediments. The argument is based on extensive field work and original data on the investigation and prosecution of more than 500 police homicides in five legal systems in Argentina, Brazil, and Uruguay. It includes both qualitative analyses of individual violations and prosecutions and quantitative analyses of broad patterns within and across jurisdictions. The book offers a structured comparison of police, prosecutorial, and judicial institutions in each location, and shows that analyses of any one of these organizations in isolation misses many of the essential dynamics that underlie an effective system of justice.

Download or read book La patria que viene written by Julio Borges and published by Dahbar. This book was released on 2022-11-18 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ¿Cómo luce el país que estamos construyendo? Paola Bautista de Alemán y Julio Borges conversan sobre el tema a lo largo de 30 horas de entrevista. La experiencia de confrontarse al diario con el mal. Las ofertas de soborno político que traía desde el campo chavista José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero. El ambiente verdadero de las negociaciones tras las puertas cerradas. El reto de explicarle a cuatro niños que se tienen que exiliar junto con sus padres. Las historias detrás de la inédita experiencia del gobierno interino. Julio Borges tiene muchas cosas que contar, y las cuenta en este libro derivado de 30 horas de diálogo con la profesora Paola Bautista de Alemán. Quien fuera hasta hace poco líder nacional de Primero Justicia, presidente de la Asamblea Nacional, negociador de la oposición y canciller del gobierno interno reflexiona sobre los cinco años en los que pasamos de una enorme ola de protestas a una falsa constituyente, la anulación de un revocatorio, el comienzo de un régimen ilegítimo y la inédita experiencia de un gobierno transitorio con representación pero sin poder. Un ciclo de eventos que serían demasiado para cualquier clase política, más si se encuentra sometida a persecución, cárcel y exilio. Sobre la política y la situación venezolana, aún queda mucha tela por cortar. Hay muchos libros sobre lo que ha ocurrido en Venezuela, pero muy pocos contienen un conocimiento directo de la situación política, y menos aún un testimonio desde el ojo del huracán como el que trae aquí Julio Borges. Un texto imprescindible para entender el país del presente y para pensar en su reconstrucción democrática. Otros títulos relacionados en Editorial Dahbar: Venezuela fracturada de Iván Darío Jiménez y Doble Crimen, de Linda Loayza López y Luisa Kislinger.

Download or read book The Limits of Judicialization written by Sandra Botero and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2022-08-25 with total page 363 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Latin America was one of the earliest and most enthusiastic adopters of what has come to be known as the judicialization of politics - the use of law and legal institutions as tools of social contestation to curb the abuse of power in government, resolve policy disputes, and enforce and expand civil, political, and socio-economic rights. Almost forty years into this experiment, The Limits of Judicialization brings together a cross-disciplinary group of scholars to assess the role that law and courts play in Latin American politics. Featuring studies of hot-button topics including abortion, state violence, judicial corruption, and corruption prosecutions, this volume argues that the institutional and cultural changes that empowered courts, what the editors call the 'judicialization superstructure,' often fall short of the promise of greater accountability and rights protection. Illustrative and expansive, this volume offers a truly interdisciplinary analysis of the limits of judicialized politics.

La innovación es clave para la competitividad y el crecimiento económico de los países, tanto en los niveles micro como macro.
