Book Description
¿Qué justicia queremos? Esta pregunta a lo largo de la historia de la humanidad, en diferentes lugares y momentos, tuvo distintas respuestas, las que en el correr de esta obra van apareciendo, expresamente o de modo implícito, sea con valoración positiva o negativa. Así, el autor logra que revisemos mentalmente los distintos paradigmas de justicia adentrándonos en el sentido e importancia de la restauración como una de esas respuestas, superadora en el plano ético respecto de las soluciones retributivas, más humana, compasiva y benévola.El libro es un gran aporte a la comprensión cabal de la definición, contenido y objeto de la Justicia Restaurativa, resultando especialmente valioso el constante esfuerzo por aclarar conceptos que habitualmente se confunden, como por ejemplo, restaurar y reparar. Si bien no llama la atención que un profesor escriba de modo claro procurando poner luz sobre terminología que sabe suele ser ambigua o mal interpretada o inclusive tomada por su contrario, debo resaltar que la tarea del Dr. Conforti a la hora de redactar estas páginas ha sido magnífica y esclarecedora.Por otro lado, desde mi rol de legisladora, y considerando el proceso de transferencia de competencias jurisdiccionales en materia penal de la justicia nacional a la de la Ciudad de Buenos Aires, entiendo que libros como este colaboran a que quienes debemos dar la discusión -no sólo funcionarios de los tres poderes del Estado y los académicos sino también los ciudadanostengamos material preciado, tanto de lectura y consulta como de fuente de reflexión e inspiración, para el debate que como sociedad debiéramos darnos. Felicito y agradezco al autor así como a la editorial por la iniciativa de publicar esta obra que además de poner el tema en escena, plantea un enfoque de la restauración que es transformador: no es la víctima la protagonista principal de la práctica restaurativa sino la sociedad, la comunidad en la que tanto el que ofensor y ofendido están insertos. En el desarrollo de esta visión, Conforti expresa una gran cantidad de consideraciones (incluyendo “creencias populares”, llamados de atención y referencias a pensadores de distintas disciplinas) que invitan al lector a asentir que no sólo es posible sino también deseable que evolucionemos socialmente hacia la adopción de prácticas restaurativas, acercándonos aún más al concepto integral de Justicia.

Law in a Lawless Land
Author: Michael Taussig
Publisher: University of Chicago Press
ISBN: 0226790142
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 225
Book Description
A modern nation in a state of total disorder, Colombia is an international flashpoint—wracked by more than half a century of civil war, political conflict, and drug-trade related violence—despite a multibillion dollar American commitment that makes it the third-largest recipient of U.S. foreign aid. Law in a Lawless Land offers a rare and penetrating insight into the nature of Colombia's present peril. In a nuanced account of the human consequences of a disintegrating state, anthropologist Michael Taussig chronicles two weeks in a small town in Colombia's Cauca Valley taken over by paramilitaries that brazenly assassinate adolescent gang members. Armed with automatic weapons and computer-generated lists of names and photographs, the paramilitaries have the tacit support of the police and even many of the desperate townspeople, who are seeking any solution to the crushing uncertainty of violence in their lives. Concentrating on everyday experience, Taussig forces readers to confront a kind of terror to which they have become numb and complacent. "If you want to know what it is like to live in a country where the state has disintegrated, this moving book by an anthropologist well known for his writings on murderous Colombia will tell you."—Eric Hobsbawm

Interpretation
Author: James Nolan
Publisher: Multilingual Matters
ISBN: 1847698107
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 341
Book Description
In recent decades the explosive growth of globalization and regional integration has fuelled parallel growth in multilingual conferences. Although conference interpreting has come of age as a profession, interpreter training programs have had varied success, pointing to the need for an instructional manual which covers the subject comprehensively. This book seeks to fill that need by providing a structured syllabus and an overview of interpretation accompanied by exercises in various aspects of the art. It is meant to serve as a practical guide for interpreters and as a complement to interpreter training programs in the classroom and online, particularly those for students preparing for conference interpreting in international governmental and business settings. This expanded second edition includes additional exercises and provides direct links to a variety of web-based resources and practice speeches, also including additional language combinations.

Utopias in Latin America
Author: Juan Pro
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781845199821
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Latin America has historically been a fertile ground where utopian projects, movements, and experiments could take root and thrive. Each of the thirteen authors in this collective volume address a particular case or specific aspect of Latin American utopianism from colonial times to the present day. The America that the Spanish and Portuguese discovered became, from the sixteenth century onwards, a space in which it was possible to imagine the widest variety of forms of human coexistence. Utopias in Latin America reconsiders the sense and understanding of utopias in various historical frames: the discovery of indigenous cultures and their natural environments; the foundation of new towns and cities in a vast colonial territory; the experimental communities of nineteenth-century utopian socialists and European exiled intellectuals; and the innovative formulae that attempts to get beyond twentieth-century capitalism.
