This book was released on 2010-01-07 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La respuesta de los Estados democráticos al terrorismo se suele plantear en términos de debate entre libertad y seguridad. Sin embargo, este planteamiento no es correcto. En los Estados democráticos, libertad y seguridad no son dos conceptos opuestos, sino vinculados. El Estado, que tiene el monopolio de la violencia legítima, es el único ente con capacidad de proporcionar seguridad a toda la ciudadanía. Sin embargo, la seguridad no es un fin en sí mismo, sino un medio para garantizar las condiciones que hagan posible el desarrollo de la vida en libertad. En último término, la garantía de la libertad es, también, la garantía de la seguridad del individuo frente al poder del Estado. El terrorismo global supone un desafío para el Estado democrático en varios sentidos. Por una parte, pone en discusión el monopolio de la violencia propio del Estado. Pero, por otra parte, plantea el peligro de que el Estado democrático se desnaturalice, si su respuesta al terrorismo llega al extremo de poner en peligro el sistema de libertades. La respuesta al terrorismo, por tanto, tiene que ser ponderada. La cuestión reside en saber dónde colocar el fiel de la balanza. Este libro ofrece al lector un marco para la comprensión de las medidas antiterroristas adoptadas por muchos Estados tras los atentados del 11 de septiembre de 2001. El libro detalla la respuesta al terrorismo global proporcionada por Estados Unidos, Reino Unido, Canadá, Francia y las instituciones de la Unión Europea. Junto a ello, y ya en nuestro ámbito, se examina la singularidad que supone utilizar la ilegalización de partidos políticos como instrumento de lucha contra el terrorismo.

Download or read book El imperio del miedo written by Benjamin R. Barber and published by . This book was released on 2004-06 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El miedo es el arma más poderosa del terrorismo. Si nos dejamos dominar por nuestras suposiciones de lo que «puede» ocurrir, nos convertiremos en instrumentos —sujetos voluntarios o involuntarios— del «imperio del miedo». En esta nueva crítica de la política exterior de Bush, a la vez implacable y pragmática, Benjamin R. Barber expone con detalle la insensatez que supone la guerra preventiva, situándola en el contexto de doscientos años de doctrina estratégica estadounidense. Muestra cómo se han creado determinados «estados canallas» con el fin de sustituir a terroristas demasiado difíciles de localizar y destruir, y cómo Estados Unidos continúa apoyando dictaduras en países que considera amigos, al tiempo que cree poder imponer la democracia a los enemigos derrotados por la fuerza de las armas. El 11 de septiembre nos enseñó que el ejército estadounidense, en realidad, no puede proteger a la sociedad; la guerra de Irak ha demostrado que es posible utilizar la estructura militar para la conquista, pero también ha puesto de manifiesto sus límites como instrumento de democratización. En respuesta al terrorismo, Estados Unidos se ha arrogado un derecho de acción unilateral que vulnera el marco internacional de legalidad y cooperación del que antes fue arquitecto, marco que constituye la única vía para derrotar la anarquía terrorista. Aunque los estadounidenses se consideran el gran modelo de las sociedades democráticas, Estados Unidos actúa con desdén plutocrático hacia el resto del mundo, condenando un impreciso «eje del mal» al tiempo que ignora la indiscutible evidencia del >. Barber sostiene con convicción que el fariseísmo estadounidense pone en peligro el futuro de Estados Unidos (y del mundo), y que no se puede propugnar la democracia reduciendo la libertad a la dictadura del mercado o imponiendo a otros países las estructuras políticas y el materialismo agresivo típicamente estadounidense. Con un entusiasmo que no excluye el rigor y un gran sentido crítico, Barber nos ofrece una visión inspirada y sugerente de lo que debe ser una ciudadanía mundial comprometida en este siglo XXI.
Download or read book Terrorismo global written by Diego Navarro Bonilla and published by Plaza Valdes. This book was released on 2007 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Las amenazas terroristas del siglo XXI obligan a replantear la misión, estructura, objetivos y recursos empleados para combatirlas. Por ello, el papel jugado por la información obtenida y gestionada para generar nuevo conocimiento realza aún más si cabe la capital importancia de la función encomendada a los servicios de inteligencia. En este libro, expertos procedentes de diversas áreas científicas junto a profesionales vinculados a la seguridad y la defensa analizan en quince capítulos el complejo entorno de la elaboración de inteligencia para apoyar la toma de decisiones en la lucha contra el terrorismo actual. Desde la evolución de las estructuras de inteligencia nacionales e internacionales hasta la revisión de la metodología derivada del ciclo de inteligencia, los autores proponen una nueva reflexión interdisciplinar en la que también tiene cabida la dimensión económica de la seguridad nacional.

Book excerpt: This book provides a broad overview of what peace research is all about by an author who has been involved in the field for more than half a century. Among other things it gives a unique review of how peace research emerged in Sweden as the author was a key actor in the most crucial events during this formative period. The book also portrays how the discipline has grown from an initial focus on “alternatives to war” to the comprehensive study of the many dimensions of a “lasting and positive peace”. The author's own work covers causes of war, sanctions, conflict resolution, conflict data, mediation, and quality peace. They demonstrate the range of topics that have to be understood for a peace with quality. This is exemplified by some of the author's writings specifically selected for this volume plus a few ones original to it. Some accounts of the author's involvements in actual peace processes in the 1990s are also included. This publication offers a substantial contribution to understanding the evolution of peace research as a field and is an important reading for scholars, policy makers, journalists, students and any aspiring peace researcher as well as for the public at large. • Peter Wallensteen is a global pioneer of peace research due to his involvement in the creation of the Department of Peace and Conflict Research at Uppsala University ¬– a major center in the field.

Download or read book Constitutional Law in Spain written by Agustín Ruiz Robledo and published by Kluwer Law International B.V.. This book was released on 2018-11-26 with total page 497 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Derived from the renowned multi-volume International Encyclopaedia of Laws, this very useful analysis of constitutional law in Spain provides essential information on the country's sources of constitutional law, its form of government, and its administrative structure. Lawyers who handle transnational matters will appreciate the clarifications of particular terminology and its application. Throughout the book, the treatment emphasizes the specific points at which constitutional law affects the interpretation of legal rules and procedure. Thorough coverage by a local expert fully describes the political system, the historical background, the role of treaties, legislation, jurisprudence, and administrative regulations. The discussion of the form and structure of government outlines its legal status, the jurisdiction and workings of the central state organs, the subdivisions of the state, its decentralized authorities, and concepts of citizenship. Special issues include the legal position of aliens, foreign relations, taxing and spending powers, emergency laws, the power of the military, and the constitutional relationship between church and state. Details are presented in such a way that readers who are unfamiliar with specific terms and concepts in varying contexts will fully grasp their meaning and significance. Its succinct yet scholarly nature, as well as the practical quality of the information it provides, make this book a valuable time-saving tool for both practising and academic jurists. Lawyers representing parties with interests in Spain will welcome this guide, and academics and researchers will appreciate its value in the study of comparative constitutional law.

Download or read book Genocide as Social Practice written by Daniel Feierstein and published by Rutgers University Press. This book was released on 2014-05-14 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Genocide not only annihilates people but also destroys and reorganizes social relations, using terror as a method. In Genocide as Social Practice, social scientist Daniel Feierstein looks at the policies of state-sponsored repression pursued by the Argentine military dictatorship against political opponents between 1976 and 1983 and those pursued by the Third Reich between 1933 and 1945. He finds similarities, not in the extent of the horror but in terms of the goals of the perpetrators. The Nazis resorted to ruthless methods in part to stifle dissent but even more importantly to reorganize German society into a Volksgemeinschaft, or people’s community, in which racial solidarity would supposedly replace class struggle. The situation in Argentina echoes this. After seizing power in 1976, the Argentine military described its own program of forced disappearances, torture, and murder as a “process of national reorganization” aimed at remodeling society on “Western and Christian” lines. For Feierstein, genocide can be considered a technology of power—a form of social engineering—that creates, destroys, or reorganizes relationships within a given society. It influences the ways in which different social groups construct their identity and the identity of others, thus shaping the way that groups interrelate. Feierstein establishes continuity between the “reorganizing genocide” first practiced by the Nazis in concentration camps and the more complex version—complex in terms of the symbolic and material closure of social relationships —later applied in Argentina. In conclusion, he speculates on how to construct a political culture capable of confronting and resisting these trends. First published in Argentina, in Spanish, Genocide as Social Practice has since been translated into many languages, now including this English edition. The book provides a distinctive and valuable look at genocide through the lens of Latin America as well as Europe.
