Book excerpt: This book provides a comprehensive analysis of the illegal extraction of metals and minerals from the perspectives of organized crime theory, green criminology, anti-corruption studies, and victimology. It includes contributions that focus on organized crime-related offences, such as drug trafficking and trafficking in persons, extortion, corruption and money laundering and sheds light on the serious environmental harms caused by illegal mining. Based on a wide range of case studies from the Amazon rainforest through the Ukrainian flatlands to the desert-like savanna of Central African Republic and Australia’s elevated plateaus, this book offers a unique insight into the illegal mining business and the complex relationship between organized crime, corruption, and ecocide. This is the first book-length publication on illegal extraction, trafficking in mined commodities, and ecocide associated with mining. It will appeal to scholars working on organized crime and green crime, including criminologists, sociologists, anthropologists, and legal scholars. Practitioners and the general public may welcome this comprehensive and timely publication to contemplate on resource-scarcity, security, and crime in a rapidly changing world.

Download or read book The Resurrection as a Messianic Anticipation written by Carlos Mendoza-Álvarez and published by Juan Manuel Escamilla González Aragón. This book was released on 2024-06-12 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the temptations of the preacher is to make all conversations about grace too “nice”. But a true preacher of grace, like Carlos, knows that this does not help people grow in faith at all. In this book, Carlos continues his ambitious, multi-volume quest to make it possible to live the Christian faith authentically without either dumbing down our intelligence or forcing us into a Stockholm syndrome of speaking “well” while tamping down the realities through which we are really living. Hence, Carlos has put his nets deep into the life experiences of different groups of those who have lost, of those for whom the outrage of death is a constant reality, and who have had to learn a new language in order to speak at all. All this is in service of giving us a sense of how much of a shake-up truly theological faith in the resurrection is when it is discovered on the inside by those who have found themselves caught up in an an-archic uprising of hope. I learned much from this book. –James Alison, priest and theologian. Feast of St Dominic, 2024. The Resurrection as a Messianic Anticipation signals the road ahead for political and liberation theologies. We can and must place our hope in the resurrection even as the world around us continues to collapse, as the specter of global violence escalates, and as the body counts mount. This prescient, scholarly work faces directly the horrors of our time and uncovers a credible theological response among the survivors. It is a must-read. – Nancy Pineda-Madrid, Loyola Marymount University This powerful book calls us to rise up against death and senseless violence. It reclaims resurrection as a communal praxis of indomitable life. It cries out with the victims of history and remembers their radiant hopes of ecstatic transformation. It is revolutionary in the best sense of the word. – Andrew Prevot, author of The Mysticism of Ordinary Life: Theology, Philosophy and Feminism The first part of a trilogy on the idea of tradition, The Resurrection as a Messianic Anticipation, proposes a theology of new life from a postmodern and decolonial perspective. This investigation of the resurrection’s foundational event starts from the analysis of intersubjectivity in our times of extreme violence, based on the creative imagination deployed by the systemic victims. From this existential background, the author offers a creative reading of the Christian faith in the full life of the "Crucified One Awoke" dialoguing with the reason that arises from the social, cultural, and spiritual resistances that dismantle the violence produced by patriarchy, colonialism, and capitalism colluded with sacrificial religion. It will be followed by two volumes on the theology of tradition thought as a symbolic resistance and as a political sacramentality of the new world born from the reverse side of hegemonic history where it is possible to listen to the murmur of God thanks to the persons and communities that live the messianic times as a living tradition in constant transformation containing an ethical, political and spiritual task for all humanity. Carlos Mendoza-Álvarez OP is a Mexican theologian. He holds a doctorate in Fundamental Theology from the University of Fribourg in Switzerland, where he also obtained his habilitation. His work proposes a Fundamental Theology where the Phenomenology of Subjectivity, Mimetic Theory, and Decolonial Thought converge in dialogue with Social Movements from the Global South. He is a full professor in the Theology Department at Boston College. He has published eight monographs, thirty chapters in collective works, and sixty articles in scientific journals. His books include a trilogy on the idea of revelation: Deus Liberans (Fribourg, 1996), Deus absconditus (Paris, 2011), and Deus ineffabilis (Barcelona, 2015).

Download or read book Corruption in Argentina written by Natalia A. Volosin and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-08-20 with total page 211 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book provides an institutional, historical, and sectorial analysis of Argentina’s structural corruption. Looking back over the last 200 years, the book demonstrates that Argentina has historically addressed corruption through ineffective debates between public-private biases or a cultural-criminal approach reinforced by modernization theory, neither of which have helped tackle the problem. Instead, Volosin proposes meaningful institutional reforms to reduce opportunities for corruption and to increase monitoring incentives and capabilities. The book argues that political economy hindrances for reform are as significant as reform itself and shows that in times of crisis or scandal, the need to move quickly to satisfy citizen demands forces politicians to promote unplanned changes that lack real teeth. Moreover, the machine’s reach over most public and private actors precludes regime-undermining reform, which is precisely what is needed to meaningfully attack entrenched structural corruption. In order to combat serious deficits in the public procurement regime, Volosin recommends a micro-sectorial analysis of government procurement, supported by an innovative human rights strategy to help measure and disclose corruption’s hidden social cost, raise awareness, integrate vulnerability criteria into the fight against corruption, and employ local, regional, and international litigation and monitoring tools to compel the political branches to perform structural change. This innovative exploration into corruption in Argentina will be of interest to researchers working on public policy, administrative law, anticorruption studies, law and development, and governance both in Argentina, and beyond.

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.
