Download or read book De la Oscuridad a la Luz written by Marino Restrepo and published by eBookIt.com. This book was released on 2011-05 with total page 349 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Escribir mi testimonio tomó varios años, no porque tuviera que pensarlo mucho para decidir qué escribir, pues la historia no podría fluir con mas facilidad. Mi experiencia de Dios, que narré en la primera versión de mi libro conocido en español como "Testimonio" y en otros idiomas en que ha sido traducido como "De la Oscuridad a la luz", es tan rica en eventos, en etapas, en niveles, en interminables dimensiones espirituales, que podría seguir ampliándola por el resto de mi vida. A pesar de no tener una formación teológica o de ciencias religiosas que me acredite como docto en estos temas, he tenido mucha libertad de expresar estos misterios. Es una plena dicha compartir con ustedes todas estas experiencias que he tenido con Dios. Lo invito entonces querido lector, a navegar conmigo por estas aguas sobrenaturales de mi testimonio y le pido a Dios que imparta una gran bendición sobre su vida para que se convierta en un verdadero faro de luz en este mundo de tinieblas. Dios sea bendito!

Download or read book The Colonial Periodical Press in the Indian and Pacific Ocean Regions written by Sandra Ataíde Lobo and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-09-22 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book clarifies the crucial role of periodical press in the advance of colonial print cultures and public debates in the Indian and Pacific Oceans. The Colonial Periodical Press in the Indian and Pacific Ocean Regions is a venture of the International Group for Studies of Colonial Periodical Press of the Portuguese Empire (IGSCP-PE), which also invests in comparative studies and conceptual discussions. Moving around urban shores of the Indian and Pacific Oceans, it approaches the crucial role of periodical press in the development of colonial print cultures and public debates in these regions. By being mostly focused on press from spaces and peoples under the domain of the Portuguese Empire, it addresses a bibliographical gap in international discussions moved by the field. The outcome reflects an investment in offering decentred and de-nationalized approaches to the colonial print cultures and press histories under study, working as a platform for regional dialogues and comparative perspectives. The studies presented allow a better understanding of transits and connections of both an imperial and a trans-imperial nature, contributing to the consolidation of comparative approaches in the studies of European empires and colonialisms. This volume is indispensable for scholars and students in media studies, modern history, cultural studies, literary studies and political science.
Download or read book Black Political Activism and the Cuban Republic written by Melina Pappademos and published by Univ of North Carolina Press. This book was released on 2011-09-19 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While it was not until 1871 that slavery in Cuba was finally abolished, African-descended people had high hopes for legal, social, and economic advancement as the republican period started. In Black Political Activism and the Cuban Republic, Melina Pappademos analyzes the racial politics and culture of black civic and political activists during the Cuban Republic. The path to equality, Pappademos reveals, was often stymied by successive political and economic crises, patronage politics, and profound racial tensions. In the face of these issues, black political leaders and members of black social clubs developed strategies for expanding their political authority and for winning respectability and socioeconomic resources. Rather than appeal to a monolithic black Cuban identity based on the assumption of shared experience, these black activists, politicians, and public intellectuals consistently recognized the class, cultural, and ideological differences that existed within the black community, thus challenging conventional wisdom about black community formation and anachronistic ideas of racial solidarity. Pappademos illuminates the central, yet often silenced, intellectual and cultural role of black Cubans in the formation of the nation's political structures; in doing so, she shows that black activism was only partially motivated by race.

Book excerpt: En los últimos años he recibido muchísimas solicitudes de hacer una antología, una recopilación de los artículos mas populares del blog. Es fácil dejar pasar artículos, dadas las carreras que la vida nos interpone cada día. Este libro me ofrece la oportunidad de reunir mis artículos favoritos en un solo lugar, y de agrupar una diversidad de ideas, emociones, y lecciones en algo mas coherente. Es divertido, educativo y ante todo, real. Editar estos artículos ha sido como editar fotografías, seleccionas las que mas te impactan, las que tienen memorias especiales y poseen entre ellas algún tipo de conexión estética o emocional. Las siguientes 25 historias son una selección de lo mas popular, emocionante y educativo del blog, los artículos que mas resonancia han generado entre los lectores. El libro tiene dos secciones — La Luz y La Vida. La sección de La Luz cubre muchos detalles sobre la ciencia y el arte de la iluminación. Encontraras una gran cantidad de técnicas y estrategias de iluminación, tips y selección de equipo. La sección de La Vida es acerca de mis experiencias como fotógrafo, que han sido a veces dolorosas, a veces divertidas, mas espero logren ofrecer anécdotas educativas. Escribir un blog has sido distinto a escribir un libro, ya que es mucho menos formal, mas auténtico. Ocasionalmente he escrito acerca de viejos recuerdos o eventos en los cuales he podido reflexionar. En otras ocasiones, los artículos se han generado espontáneamente gracias a las experiencias vividas ese mismo día en alguna locación, de las frustraciones de subirse a un avión cargando montones de equipo fotográfico, o de tener que manejar a un cliente o sujeto complicado. Son los afanes sin editar de la experiencia fotográfica. El blog pasa de opiniones concretas, a lecciones técnicas, a reacciones rápidas y divertidas de las cosas bobas y frustrantes que pasan cada día trabajando en una locación. Son recuentos honestos de lo maravilloso, fascinante, loco, triste, frustrante, remunerador, desalentador y glorioso que es ser un artista visual. Y porque traducir estas historias al Español? Es algo que he querido hacer por mucho tiempo, sobretodo después de haber conocido tantos fotografos maravillosos y apasionados en México y Sur América que luchan por alcanzar su sueños. Quiero poder compartir mas con ellos. Agradezco a mi buen amigo Eduardo Angel quien tradujo todas estas historias con destreza técnica y gran cariño. Espero que este libro sea del agrado de todos. –Joe

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this widely hailed book, NPR correspondent Tom Gjelten fuses the story of the Bacardi family and their famous rum business with Cuba's tumultuous experience over the last 150 years to produce a deeply entertaining historical narrative. The company Facundo Bacardi launched in Cuba in 1862 brought worldwide fame to the island, and in the decades that followed his Bacardi descendants participated in every aspect of Cuban life. With his intimate account of their struggles and adventures across five generations, Gjelten brings to life the larger story of Cuba's fight for freedom, its tortured relationship with America, the rise of Fidel Castro, and the violent division of the Cuban nation.

Download or read book Privatization in Latin America written by Alberto Chong and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2005-03-15 with total page 526 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Privatization is under attack. Beginning in the 1980s, thousands of failing state-owned enterprises worldwide have been turned over to the private sector. But public opinion has turned against privatization. A large political backlash has been brewing for some time, infused by accusations of corruption, abuse of market power, and neglect of the poor. What is the real record of privatization and are the criticisms justified? 'Privatization in Latin America' evaluates the empirical evidence on privatization in a region that has witnessed an extensive decline in the state's share of production over the past 20 years. The book is a compilation of recent studies that provide a comprehensive analysis of the record of and accusations against privatization, with important recommendations for the future. Seven countries are investigated: Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Mexico, and Peru. This book will be vital to anyone interested in the privatization debate but especially to those involved in civil service reform, corporate governance, economic policy, finance, and anticorruption efforts. 'Privatization is important but controversial. While economists typically favor it, others are skeptical. This book provides strong scientific evidence that privatization has been beneficial for many Latin American countries, although some privatizations failed and some groups in society lost out. As usual, the devil is in the details: how privatization is carried out and what reforms accompany it are crucial to its success. The book is definitely an invaluable contribution to the privatization debate.' --Oliver Hart, Andrew E. Furer Professor of Economics, Harvard University
