Book Description
Este libro recoge la traducción al castellano del libro The Structure of Big History de Fred Spier publicado en 1996 junto a una selección de otros escritos del mismo autor publicados a lo largo de las dos últimas décadas. Todos estos ensayos tienen en común dos cosas: el enfoque teórico general en términos de regímenes de la gran historia y su preocupación durante más de cincuenta años por la situación ecológica precaria en la que se encuentra la humanidad, que vive en la superficie de un planeta maravilloso pero limitado, y que fluye por el cosmos, tan inhóspito. La importancia de todo eso se explica en detalle en el presente libro.

On Tyranny
Author: Timothy Snyder
Publisher: Crown
ISBN: 0804190119
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 130
Book Description
#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • A “bracing” (Vox) guide for surviving and resisting America’s turn towards authoritarianism, from “a rising public intellectual unafraid to make bold connections between past and present” (The New York Times) “Timothy Snyder reasons with unparalleled clarity, throwing the past and future into sharp relief. He has written the rare kind of book that can be read in one sitting but will keep you coming back to help regain your bearings.”—Masha Gessen The Founding Fathers tried to protect us from the threat they knew, the tyranny that overcame ancient democracy. Today, our political order faces new threats, not unlike the totalitarianism of the twentieth century. We are no wiser than the Europeans who saw democracy yield to fascism, Nazism, or communism. Our one advantage is that we might learn from their experience. On Tyranny is a call to arms and a guide to resistance, with invaluable ideas for how we can preserve our freedoms in the uncertain years to come.

ISBN: 9632965477
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 107
Book Description
Côte d'Ivoire, or the Ivory Coast, is a country located in West Africa that borders the Gulf of Guinea. It is known for being the world's largest producer of cocoa beans, as well as for its vibrant cultural heritage. The country is home to over 25 million people, with the majority of the population being of African descent. The official language of Côte d'Ivoire is French, although local languages such as Baoulé, Dioula, and Anyin are also spoken. Côte d'Ivoire has a rich history that dates back to pre-colonial times. The country was first colonized by the French in the late 19th century and gained independence in 1960. Since then, it has experienced periods of political instability, including a civil war that lasted from 2002 to 2011. Despite these challenges, Côte d'Ivoire has continued to develop its economy, which is largely driven by agriculture, including the production of coffee, cocoa, and palm oil. The country has also made progress in areas such as education and healthcare, although poverty and inequality persist in many parts of the country.

Paloma Sánchez-Garnica's first novel to be translated into English is a beautiful, harrowing, and illuminating story of family betrayals and a last chance for forgiveness.

After years of pain and distance, Carlota's father, Clemente, wants to see her before he dies...and to settle the past.
