"The Third Mexican Provincial Council, celebrated in 1585, has always been considered a cornerstone of the canonical law of Spanish America, both with regard to its content and the long period and vast territory in which it was in force. New possibilities of research had been made possible due to the publication of the working manuscripts in recent years, enabling a better understanding of the juridical work produced by the bishops. Given these new materials, the author has delved deeper into the drafting processes carried out by the provincial council.
Taking a close look at the reports sent to the council, the theological and juridical treaties, and other conciliar and synodal legislation, along with the consultations to jurists and theologians, the author has identified different processes of drafting of the conciliar decrees.
The result of this research allows us to relocate the authorship of the conciliar decrees to the Mexican episcopate as well as establish the degree of their originality. Locality of the law and its significance in the legal order in force at that time is one of the characteristics of the body of decrees promulgated at the Third Mexican Provincial Council."

This work presents several different points of view regarding the role of environmental innovation as the driving force of public policy designed to promote sustainabilityand reduce environmental impacts. Environmental innovation is analyzed byexamining concrete practices such as sustainable design, green branding, eco-labeling, the use of medicinal plants, and improved plant varieties, among other things, and the individual and collective intellectual property rights that protect and promote these kinds of innovations. While this thematic diversity is directly proportional to the complexity of the author's presentation, it does not detract from the conceptual unity of the text. On the contrary, by examining the concepts as applied in a variety of contexts, the author highlights not only the challenges that must be faced in order to protect the general interest, but also proposes alternative solutions that promise to improve the structure, emphases, and priorities of these rights. This work represents the culmination of a valuable research project that benefited from the cumulative experience of the author and will be of great interest to scholars in the field, It is an important theoretical contribution to the formulation of strategies for environmental mitigation, adaptation, and recovery.

"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. The author examines in detail the structural violence of the military ranks and directly confronts the impunity with which soldiers have frequently been allowed to break the law, violate human rights, and attack the civilian population without any kind of legal consequence"--Amazon.com

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

This book studies the period of the Chilean political graphic art (posters, public art). The author inquires into the unexplored area between the "golden age" of the political poster during the Popular Unity and the poster produced after the 1973 coup d'état in exile. And it does so by taking the experience of two graphic collectives that until now had been left in darkness: the Association of Young Plastics APJ (1979-1987) and Tallersol (1977). In this sense, this book does more than fill a void, for "filling" already announces a fiction of totality; As we know, a field of knowledge is never completely saturated: there is always emptiness and there is full, and such dynamics is what produces possibility and future. This is well known by Nicole Cristi and Javiera Manzi, the authors of this book, who have the audacity to construct with rigor and passion a story that places and restores the artistic-political itinerary of two essential collectives of graphic action of the dictatorial period, In turn, are the tip of a much wider skein of coordinations, groupings and experiences still very little explored by historiography and local criticism. A plot of which the posters shown here - almost for the first time - are a historical and technical mark. So, this book does not come to fill, but to reopen the discussion about graph and politics, a book that also has the generosity to leave offered multiple edges to explore on the field of cultural resistance to the dictatorship of Augusto Pinochet
