"Pérez tackles a crucial topic to understand the climate of uncertainty and vulnerability that oppresses Mexican society: the behavior of the army during the past few years.

Was Lola Mora the only active artist between 1890 and 1920? Judging by the repercussion of his work, one might think so. Or was it just the most visible emergent of a forgotten creative group: that of the female artists of that period? Georgina Gluzman presents in this book the work of other female artists in the city of Buenos Aires during those years. This is a large group whose importance has been overlooked: Maria Obligado de Soto y Calvo, Sofía Posadas, Eugenia Belin Sarmiento, Ana Weiss de Rossi, Lía Correa Morales, among many others. In addition to focusing on a group of figures and works, the author analyzes issues such as the artistic education of women, the representation of artists in the press and the relationships between women's movements and arts, thus mapping a complex map of trajectories, productions and practices marginalized by traditional studies

The fundamental problem that Paraguay faces is not a question of old or new course, nor is it a question of "left" or "right." The problem is more serious and structural, since Paraguay post stronista, from 1989 until today, lacks "north," objectives, goals and mechanisms duly agreed, without which the country will be trapped for a longer time in the appalling situation In which it is. The writer and journalist explains that Paraguay has not have any direction since the fall of Alfredo Stroessner. It is so in the first part the author exposes what was the government under the control of the Colorado Party, from Alfredo Stroessner to Nicanor Duarte Frutos and how the Fernando Lugo project is managed. In the second and third parts of the book a detailed analysis of the governments of the democratic era is made, with emphasis on the governments of Fernando Lugo, Federico Franco and Horacio Cartes. And it ends with a deep reflection on the presidential succession of 2018 and the theme of presidential re-election
