Download or read book El control de la acusaci n Una reflexi n sobre los l mites del poder de acusar en el Estado constitucional de derecho written by José Joaquín Urbano Martínez and published by Universidad Externado. This book was released on 2013-10-01 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: De los instrumentos de derecho internacional de derechos humanos y de derecho penal internacional, de las constituciones políticas y de sus interpretaciones autorizadas, se infiere un conjunto de principios normativos del proceso penal que determinan una estructura básica y que sientan las bases para la elaboración de un modelo dogmático, Uno de los elementos para tener en cuenta en esta tarea es el atinente a los límites del poder de acusar y a la instancia concebida para la verificación del respeto de esos límites.Con todo, a diferencia de lo que ocurre en la mayoría de regímenes del derecho comparado, de la estructura del proceso penal colombiano no hace parte una fase intermedia ante el juez de las audiencias preliminares que comprenda el control material de la acusación, Además, la interpretación jurisprudencial plantea que solo hay lugar a un control ante el juez de conocimiento que, para no afectar su imparcialidad, se limita a la verificación de los presupuestos formales del escrito de acusación.Sin embargo, la práctica judicial evidencia situaciones en las que ese escrito presenta manifiestas irregularidades que no son susceptibles de ser superadas por vía de un control formal. En estos casos es posible un control excepcional de la acusación que, sin recaer sobre su fundamento sustancial, impida, en situaciones extremas, el abuso del poder de acusar, y como el control formal y el control excepcional de extremos sobre la acusación no solucionan el problema central planteado por la inexistencia de un control material, el camino más expedito para hacerlo es una reforma al Código de Procedimiento Penal. Hasta tanto, los instrumentos a los que se podría acudir con ese propósito son el autocontrol de la Fiscalía y la acción de tutela.

Download or read book How Tobacco Smoke Causes Disease written by United States. Public Health Service. Office of the Surgeon General and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 728 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report considers the biological and behavioral mechanisms that may underlie the pathogenicity of tobacco smoke. Many Surgeon General's reports have considered research findings on mechanisms in assessing the biological plausibility of associations observed in epidemiologic studies. Mechanisms of disease are important because they may provide plausibility, which is one of the guideline criteria for assessing evidence on causation. This report specifically reviews the evidence on the potential mechanisms by which smoking causes diseases and considers whether a mechanism is likely to be operative in the production of human disease by tobacco smoke. This evidence is relevant to understanding how smoking causes disease, to identifying those who may be particularly susceptible, and to assessing the potential risks of tobacco products.
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 North American Regional Security written by Richard J. Kilroy (Jr.) and published by Lynne Rienner Pub. This book was released on 2013 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Has the emergence of new transnational threats - terrorism, drug cartels, natural disasters - affected the dynamics of security relations among Canada, Mexico, and the United States? What is the likely future of these relations in a highly securitized world? Richard Kilroy, Abelardo Rodríguez Sumano, and Todd Hataley trace the evolution of security relations in North America from the bilateral approach that existed prior to the events of September 11, to the unilateral US approach of perimeter defense after September 11, to the creation of a trilateral regional security framework. Their analysis highlights both the move toward cooperation and the significant obstacles that limit the potential for an effective regional security complex." -- Publisher's description.

Download or read book Meeting at Grand Central written by Lee Cronk and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2013 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Meeting at Grand Central brings together insights from evolutionary biology, political science, economics, anthropology, and other fields to explain how the interactions between our evolved selves and the institutional structures we have created make cooperation possible. The book begins with a look at the ideas of Mancur Olson and George Williams, who shifted the question of why cooperation happens from an emphasis on group benefits to individual costs. It then explores how these ideas have influenced our thinking about cooperation, coordination, and collective action. The book persuasively argues that cooperation and its failures are best explained by evolutionary and social theories working together. Selection sometimes favors cooperative tendencies, while institutions, norms, and incentives encourage and make possible actual cooperation."--Publisher's website.

Download or read book A Genius Planet written by Ludger Hovestadt and published by Birkhäuser. This book was released on 2017-07-24 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Imagine a world where the power is always on, where there is not just enough energy, but an abundance of it. Such a world is no Utopia, it is a possible reality. Using indefinitely available sources of energy – especially photovoltaic solar, in combination with others – and networking this energy, much in the way that we have networked information, we can get beyond our current energy ‘crisis’ and resolve it. The world we then find ourselves in is not a world without problems – we will face new challenges on the way – but in terms of energy it is a world of plenty. Rooted in sound theory and based on technology that is available now, A Genius Planet offers an accessible but detailed and insightful perspective on how we can free ourselves from our dependency on natural resources and generate, trade, and use energy in ways that open up the genuine potential that we have at our disposal today.
Download or read book La epistemolog a del procedimiento penal acusatorio y oral written by Mariela Ponce Villa and published by Instituto de Estudios Constitucionales del Estado de Querétaro. This book was released on 2019-07-01 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Este libro tiene por objeto de investigación el procedimiento penal acusatorio y oral, desde una perspectiva normativa, analítica y empírica. Normativa, porque parte de las normas fundamentales —derechos, principios, garantías— constitucionales, convencionales y procesales, así como de la interpretación jurisprudencial. Analítica, porque se refiere a la estructura procedimental para culminar con un juicio —sentencia—. Empírica, porque si bien parte de lo teórico y normativo, se complementa con lo que en realidad sucede en la tramitación de un procedimiento penal, tanto de tipo mixto como acusatorio, imprimiendo en todo ello la experiencia obtenida en la larga trayectoria profesional de la autora. Su base es documental, pues abarca la doctrina desarrollada por prominentes autores —Gadamer, Popper, Damaska, Ferrajoli, Taruffo, Foucault, entre otros—, legislación, jurisprudencia y casos reales, para concluir con propuestas relacionadas con el carácter epistémico del proceso penal acusatorio. El capítulo inicial parte de la evolución de los sistemas procesales, para mostrar que el primero en aparecer en la historia es el procedimiento acusatorio y no el inquisitorial. En el capítulo segundo se hace una breve referencia al garantismo, precisando qué debe entenderse por tal, así como la ideología y las razones políticas de su nacimiento. El capítulo tercero aborda los fines del proceso, tomando en cuenta que es importante distinguir las finalidades, porque de eso depende la forma de proceder para alcanzar las metas. Finalmente, los capítulos cuarto y quinto son torales, ya que tienen por objeto demostrar que el procedimiento acusatorio y oral tiene un carácter epistemológico, tanto el proceso como la decisión. Sin lugar a dudas, este libro llena un vacío en la literatura especializada sobre la materia, ya que nos ofrece las bases filosóficas y epistémicas del procedimiento penal, acusatorio y oral.
