Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Twilight of the Avant-Garde addresses the central problem of contemporary Spanish poetry: the attempt to preserve the scope and ambition of modernist poetry at the end of the twentieth century. Offering a critical analysis of Luis Garcìa Montero’s “poetry of experience,” and the work of José Angel Valente and Antonio Gamoneda, among others, Mayhew challenges received notions about the value of poetic language in relation to the society and culture at large. Ultimately championing the survival of more challenging and ambitious modes of poetic writing in the postmodern age, this volume argues that the cultural ambition of modernist poetics remains alive and well in our age of cynicism.

Download or read book The Governance of Privacy written by Colin J. Bennett and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-11-01 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book was published in 2003.This book offers a broad and incisive analysis of the governance of privacy protection with regard to personal information in contemporary advanced industrial states. Based on research across many countries, it discusses the goals of privacy protection policy and the changing discourse surrounding the privacy issue, concerning risk, trust and social values. It analyzes at length the contemporary policy instruments that together comprise the inventory of possible solutions to the problem of privacy protection. It argues that privacy protection depends upon an integration of these instruments, but that any country's efforts are inescapably linked with the actions of others that operate outside its borders. The book concludes that, in a ’globalizing’ world, this regulatory interdependence could lead either to a search for the highest possible standard of privacy protection, or to competitive deregulation, or to a more complex outcome reflecting the nature of the issue and its policy responses.

Download or read book Emotion and Devotion written by Miri Rubin and published by Central European University Press. This book was released on 2009-01-01 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Emotion and Devotion Miri Rubin explores the craft of the historian through a series of studies of medieval religious cultures. In three original chapters she approaches the medieval figure of the Virgin Mary with the aim of unravelling meaning and experience. Hymns and miracle tales, altarpieces and sermons – a wide range of sources from many European regions – are made to reveal the creativity and richness which they elicited in medieval people, women and men, clergy and laity, people of status and riches as well as those of modest means. The first chapter, "The Global 'Middle Ages'," considers the current historiographical frame for the study of religious cultures and suggests ways in which the Middle Ages can be made more global. Next, "Mary, and Others" examines the polemical situations around Mary, and the location of Muslims and Jews within them. The third chapter, "Emotions and Selves," tracks the sentimental education experienced by Europeans in the late Middle Ages through devotional encounters with the figure of the Virgin Mary in word, image and sound. Each year one scholar of world fame is invited to present lectures in the framework of the Natalie Zemon Davis Annual Lecture Series at the Central European University, Budapest. This is the second volume in the series of published lectures.

Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of Migration Crises written by Dr. Cecilia Menjívar and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2019-01-16 with total page 953 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objective of The Oxford Handbook of Migration Crises is to deconstruct, question, and redefine through a critical lens what is commonly understood as "migration crises." The volume covers a wide range of historical, economic, social, political, and environmental conditions that generate migration crises around the globe. At the same time, it illuminates how the media and public officials play a major role in framing migratory flows as crises. The volume brings together an exceptional group of scholars from around the world to critically examine migration crises and to revisit the notion of crisis through the context in which permanent and non-permanent migration flows occur. The Oxford Handbook of Migration Crises offers an understanding of individuals in societies, socio-economic structures, and group processes. Focusing on migrants' departures and arrivals in all continents, this comprehensive handbook explores the social dynamics of migration crises, with an emphasis on factors that propel these flows as well as the actors that play a role in classifying them and in addressing them. The volume is organized into nine sections. The first section provides a historical overview of the link between migration and crises. The second looks at how migration crises are constructed, while the third section contextualizes the causes and effects of protracted conflicts in producing crises. The fourth focuses on the role of climate and the environment in generating migration crises, while the fifth section examines these migratory flows in migration corridors and transit countries. The sixth section looks at policy responses to migratory flows, The last three sections look at the role media and visual culture, gender, and immigrant incorporation play in migration crises.

Download or read book Eficacia de la prueba il cita en el proceso penal a la luz la STC 81 98 de 2 abril written by Elena Martínez García and published by Publicacions de la Universitat de València. This book was released on 2003 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El riesgo de admisión de una prueba obtenida con vulneración de derechos fundamentales se encuentra presente en nuestro proceso penal, y la deficiente cobertura legal de determinados actos de investigación pone en entredicho las garantías del ciudadano. Este peliro en torno a la ‘Eficacia de la prueba ilícita en el proceso penal’ se ha incrementado a partir de la STC 81/98, de 2 de abril, por introducir ciertos criterios más laxos en la interpretación de la doctrina de “los frutos del árbol” y por encontrar vías de posible subsanación de aquellas pruebas derivadas de un acto originario ilícito y vulnerador de un derecho fundamental del sujeto investigado. Este trabajo demuestra, a través de un análisis comparativo de la jurisprudencia del Tribunal Supremo Federal norteamericano y de nuestro Tribunal Constitucional, que estamos siguiendo los mismos pasos dados hasta ahora en dicho sistema y se está generando el denominado ‘desmantelamiento’ de dicha doctrina anglosajona en detrimento, por tanto, de nuestro sistema de garantías procesales en los actos de investigación.
Download or read book Sexism and Stereotypes in Modern Society written by William B. Swann and published by Amer Psychological Assn. This book was released on 1999 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Once the province of a small group of theorists and researchers operating on the periphery of psychological science, gender research has charged into the psychological mainstream during the last two decades. In large measure, Janet T. Spence has been responsible for this transformation, challenging the traditional ideas of fundamental difference between men and women. The simple idea of difference, once used to rationalize prejudices and discrimination, has now been replaced by a complex, sophisticated awareness of how gender is constructed and maintained. This book explores new empirical work and theoretical models about the causes and consequences of constructing gender.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La segunda edición de La prueba ilícita, tras un plazo de tiempo relativamente breve, enfoca, por una parte, acometer temas omitidos en la primera edición como el tratamiento procesal en los diversos procedimientos en España o las nuevas líneas jurisprudenciales tras la teoría de la desconexión de antijuridicidad, y por otra, los cambios o novedades ocurridos en este tiempo, que en una materia tan viva no son pocos. Junto al variable concepto de prueba ilícita y fruto de una siempre enriquecedora segunda reflexión, se hallan las referencias a las diferentes perspectivas con que se acometen las reglas de exclusión en el sistema angloamericano y en el continental. A las causas de ilicitud se añaden los nuevos métodos probatorios conectados mayoritariamente con el uso de nuevas tecnologías en la investigación y los elementos comparativos, así como las novedades normativas de la Unión Europea en materia de prueba, completada con las más recientes resoluciones del Tribunal Europeo de Derechos Humanos, que sigue actuando como crisol a efectos de servir de orientación para una configuración legal armonizada en Europa. Finalmente, se incorpora la doctrina y jurisprudencia norteamericana tras el decisivo Hudson vs. Michigan y sus consecuencias. Una visión ampliada, en definitiva, que espera colmar las expectativas de los lectores de la primera edición y de los que ahora puedan añadirse ÍNDICE (Resumen): Concepto y configuración de la prueba ilícita. Causas y clases de ilicitud probatoria. Eficacia de la prueba ilícita. Tratamiento procesal de la ilicitud probatoria. Elementos para el contraste.
