Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El conjunto de trabajos de este volumen revela el nivel alcanzado por el fenómeno de las drogas en el mundo andino, así como su significado en términos de las relaciones de Brasil, Estados Unidos y la Unión Europea con el área. Todos los ensayos indican la complejidad del fenómeno, los magros resultados de las políticas antidrogas y las frustraciones que ha producido la perpetuación de una estrategia antinarcóticos decididamente coactiva: “La guerra contra las drogas”. El presente libro comprueba que este paradigma prohibicionista debe reevaluarse.

Download or read book Prison Writing of Latin America written by Joey Whitfield and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2018-07-26 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What happens inside Latin American prisons? How does the social organisation of prisoners relate to the political structures beyond the walls? Is it possible to resist corrupt penal regimes? In Prison Writing of Latin America, Joey Whitfield turns to those best placed to answer these questions: people who have been imprisoned themselves. Drawing on a century of material produced by Latin American prisoners from Mexico, Cuba, Costa Rica, Colombia, Peru, Bolivia and Brazil, Whitfield weaves readings of novels, memoirs and testimonial texts with social and political analysis. Rather than distinguishing between dictatorial and democratic periods of government, he shows that from the point of view of the prisoner, all states are authoritarian in nature. In the face of oppression, however, prisoners both 'political' and 'criminal' have found ways not only to resist but also to create alternative communities both real and imagined, sometimes in collaboration with each other.
Download or read book Criminology and Criminal Policy Movements written by Eugenio Raúl Zaffaroni and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2013 with total page 495 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "These studies recover the historical roots of thinking that are in conflict with, and critical of, present-day tendencies. Criminological theory over the last few decades has oscillated between extremes: on one side there are calls for increasing the state exercise of punitive power as the only means of providing security, in the face of both urban and international rime; while the other side highlights the need for reducing the exercise of punitive power because of the paradoxical effects that it produces. Useful for academics, practitioners, professionals and students, this book will certainly contribute to a wider awareness in crime prevention and criminal justice."--Publisher's website.

Download or read book Pol tica criminal en vanguardia written by Manuel Cancio Meliá and published by Civitas. This book was released on 2008 with total page 521 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El presente libro se abordan aquellos campos de la política criminal que están a la vanguardia -es decir, que muestran características especialmente paradigmáticas- de la actual espiral de transformaciones que sufren los ordenamientos jurídico-penales de Occidente: diversas manifestaciones de las organizaciones criminales, los delitos de terrorismo y la conexión entre sistema penal e inmigración. Puede decirse que son éstos los campos del Derecho penal en los que es posible observar con mayor claridad el rumbo político-criminal de nuestros sistemas penales, un rumbo que ha llevado a una evolución en la que una legislación puramente simbólica e impulsos punitivistas de diversa proveniencia se potencian mutuamente cada vez con mayor intensidad, desembocando en una expansión cuantitativa y cualitativa del Derecho penal: “Derecho penal” del enemigo. Después de una consideración general de los rasgos distintivos de la situación actual del sistema penal, se entra en el análisis de los tres sectores específicos, adoptando la perspectiva de la política criminal, la dogmática jurídico-penal, la psicología social, la criminología y la teoría política.

Download or read book Attorney Client Privilege in the Americas written by James R. Silkenat and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2017-01-20 with total page 1076 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the major challenges facing the legal profession today is how to adapt and apply the concept of attorney-client privilege (or professional secrecy) in an increasingly globalised world. Rules on attorney-client privilege differ significantly from country to country. This book explores such differences within 32 jurisdictions in North, Central and South America and the Caribbean. Together with its complementary volume Professional Secrecy of Lawyers in Europe (Cambridge, 2013), this book explores the creation of a common definition for attorney-client privilege which can be accepted by a wide variety of countries and international institutions. Practice and interpretation within each jurisdiction is mapped and explored, including reference to local laws, ethical rules and case law. This book is a useful resource for those working on transactions or litigations which involve several countries.

This book was released on 2021 with total page 373 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Análisis crítico con un enfoque multidisciplinario, único hasta ahora en México, de las oportunidades y desafíos de los derechos humanos. Los autores aquí reunidos analizan los derechos humanos como una práctica social que se realiza en medio de relaciones asimétricas de poder, en el marco del ya convulsionado siglo xxi. Pensados como un discurso que se convierte en práctica social y en campo de disputa para la definición de significados, los derechos humanos pueden generar marcos de oportunidad para la transformación político-social pero, también, pueden constituir un obstáculo para el cambio y la construcción de subjetividades emancipadas.
