This book was released on 2014-09-10 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El delito urbanístico ha sido objeto de importantes estudios doctrinales y jurisprudenciales, habiendo dado origen, desde su introducción en el Código Penal, a un amplio debate que va, desde la propia oportunidad o mejor, necesidad de la tipificación de determinadas conductas como delictivas, hasta la aplicación de las consecuencias derivadas del delito, entre las que destaca la demolición, sobre cuya necesidad o no, aún sigue produciéndose una gran polémica jurisprudencial, presentando este tema una gran casuística. Partiendo de la evolución legislativa de la protección penal de la ordenación del territorio y el urbanismo, la presente monografía se centra en el estudio del bien jurídico protegido, refiriéndose especialmente a la naturaleza de estos delitos, su fundamentación constitucional y las relaciones entre el Derecho Administrativo y el Derecho Penal en este ámbito. La obra va a desarrollar un exhaustivo estudio de la estructura jurídica del delito urbanístico, refiriéndose por separado al tipo básico del 319.2 y al tipo agravado del 319.1. Y así, examinará, sucesivamente, el juicio de antijuridicidad y el juicio de culpabilidad, así como los posibles supuestos de error, y analizando el dolo tanto como referencia típica, como elemento autónomo. Todo ello con abundantes citas doctrinales y jurisprudenciales que plasman el gran debate que aún subsiste. El estudio continúa con el examen detallado de las especiales formas de aparición de estos delitos, así como los temas relativos a la consumación y el posible grado de tentativa, la autoría y participación, su consideración o no como delito continuado, y las posibles relaciones concursales, finalizando con las consecuencias jurídicas del delito, capítulo en que se abordan las distintas penas correspondientes a personas físicas y jurídicas, así como las consecuencias accesorias, y aludiendo, asimismo, al tema de la prescripción. La lectura de esta obra resultará, sin duda, de gran interés no solo para los investigadores que deseen profundizar en los temas desarrollados, sino además para los profesionales, que encontrarán en ella una importante herramienta de trabajo, dada su sólida base doctrinal y jurisprudencial.

This book was released on 2015-10-23 with total page 512 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: En este trabajo de investigación se analizan minuciosamente el artículo 319 del Código penal, dedicado a los delitos sobre la ordenación del territorio y el urbanismo, integrado en el Capitulo I del Título XVI. Se examinan por separados los cuatros apartados del artículo 319 del CP. En el primero se estudia la forma agravada, y en el segundo de los apartados, la forma básica sobre los atentados que se cometan al bien jurídico protegido ordenación racional del territorio. Se hace un análisis a los sujetos activos que son los mismos para los dos apartados (promotores, constructores y técnicos directores); también se tratan las conductas típicas sobre las obras de urbanización, construcción y edificación; así como las consecuencias jurídicas que son de tres tipos, prisión, multa e inhabilitación especial para la profesión u oficio. En el apartado tercero del artículo 319 se trata la orden de demolición de lo construido o edificado contra la ordenación del territorio, que tras la reforma del Código Penal mediante la LO 5/2010, se ha ampliado el alcance de la demolición, a la orden también de reposición a su estado originario de la realidad física alterada. Como novedad también de la reforma del nuestro texto punitivo por LO 5/2010, resulta la necesidad de acudir en estos tipos de delitos a la institución del comiso que había sido propugnado por una parte de la doctrina penal para su adaptación a la normativa europea, concretamente a la Decisión Marco 2005/212/JAI. También con esta reforma se introduce por primera vez en el sistema penal de nuestro país, la responsabilidad penal de las personas jurídicas en detrimento del principio societas delinquere non potest, que hacía imposible la imputación de los delitos a las sociedades mercantiles investidas con personalidad jurídica.

Download or read book Cultural Tourism written by bob Mckercher and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-10-02 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Examine cultural tourism issues from both sides of the industry! Unique in concept and content, Cultural Tourism: The Partnership Between Tourism and Cultural Heritage Management examines the relationship between the sectors that represent opposite sides of the cultural tourism coin. While tourism professionals assess cultural assets for their profit potential, cultural heritage professionals judge the same assets for their intrinsic value. Sustainable cultural tourism can only occur when the two sides form a true partnership based on understanding and appreciation of each other's merits. The authors--one, a tourism specialist, the other, a cultural heritage management expert--present a model for a working partnership with mutual benefits, integrating management theory and practice from both disciplines. Cultural Tourism is the first book to combine the different perspectives of tourism management and cultural heritage management. It examines the role of tangible (physical evidence of culture) and intangible (continuing cultural practices, knowledge, and living experiences) heritage, describes the differences between cultural tourism products and cultural heritage assets, and develops a number of conceptual models, including a classification system for cultural tourists, indicators of tourism potential at cultural and heritage assets, and assessment criteria for cultural and heritage assets with tourism potential. Cultural Tourism examines the five main constituent elements involved in cultural tourism: cultural and heritage assets in tourism sites such as the Royal Palace in Bangkok, the Cook Islands, and Alcatraz Prison in San Francisco. tourism--what it is, how it works, and what makes it a success five different types of cultural tourists consumption of products, value adding, and commodification integrating the first four elements to satisfy the tourist, meet the needs of the tourism industry, and conserve the intrinsic value of the asset Though tourism and cultural heritage management professionals have mutual interests in the management, conservation, and presentation of cultural and heritage assets, the two sectors operate on parallel planes, maintaining an uneasy partnership with surprisingly little dialogue. Cultural Tourism provides professionals and students in each field with a better understanding of their own roles in the partnership, bridging the gap via sound planning, management, and marketing to produce top-quality, long-lasting cultural tourism products.

Book excerpt: The worlds developing countries will be experiencing massive increases in their urban populations over the 21st century.

Part II asks how urban housing, land and service provision can be improved in the face of rapid urban expansion, drawing lessons from experiences around the world. Part III analyses the challenges and opportunities that urbanization presents for improving living environments and reducing pressures on local and global ecosystems.

Download or read book Transport Environment and Health written by World Health Organization. Regional Office for Europe and published by WHO Regional Office Europe. This book was released on 2000 with total page 87 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book brings together the scientific evidence on the main effects of transport on human health and the environment. It sets the conceptual framework for future analyses of the health burden and health gains from transport policies. It outlines how these health concerns have been reflected in policy tools such as impact assessment, regulation and economic analysis, and identifies the areas where action is most needed. Discussions of the environment and health effects of transport need to be communicated in a way that is relevant for policy-makers and easily understood by nonscientists. That is the aim of this book, which summarizes the results of extensive reviews of the issues prepared by groups of prominent international experts. It is also planned to release the reviews themselves, to give a more detailed account of the scientific evidence. [Foreword]
