Amenazas, respuestas y régimen político


Book Description

Esta publicación contiene la tesis doctoral de Alberto E. Dojas en la cual se reexamina la historia y las doctrinas del uso de la fuerza junto con el derecho internacional que lo ha regulado desde comienzos de la sociedad internacional. Por un lado explica que las categorías tradicionales utilizadas para analizar, justificar y establecer la legalidad del uso de la fuerza son insuficientes para comprender la complejidad de la interacción material entre las amenazas y respuestas y sus respectivas justificaciones por parte de los Estados. Por otro lado, el libro analiza las diversas variantes existentes entre la legítima defensa y la agresión, y desarrolla los múltiples aspectos de la doctrina de la intervención preventiva.




A New Day


Book Description

As one of the first successful Latin crossover artists, Jon Secada dominated the pop music charts in the early 90s, releasing hits such as Just Another Day and Angel and winning multiple Grammy Awards. As a Cuban refuge, Jon understands that life is about starting anew and embracing opportunities, something he never lost sight of while achieving his dream of being a performer and while building new dreams when life took unexpected turns. In his debut book, Jon shares the lessons he learned that made him the resilient person he is today. His moving message reaffirms that wisdom and strength comes from constantly reinventing yourself and finding what you’re made of through doubt and hardships, growing from adversity, and having faith in A New Day.

The Demographic Dividend


Book Description

There is long-standing debate on how population growth affects national economies. A new report from Population Matters examines the history of this debate and synthesizes current research on the topic. The authors, led by Harvard economist David Bloom, conclude that population age structure, more than size or growth per se, affects economic development, and that reducing high fertility can create opportunities for economic growth if the right kinds of educational, health, and labor-market policies are in place. The report also examines specific regions of the world and how their differing policy environments have affected the relationship between population change and economic development.
