Reforma financiera en América Latina
Author: Alicia Girón
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Finance
Languages : es
Pages : 344
Book Description
El presente libro analiza los cambios y la dinámica económica de las finanzas globalizadas en el contexto regional y mundial. América Latina no es la excepción: participa como tributaria del enorme crecimiento del mundo rentista que no ha encontrado límites en los movimientos sociales ni en la convulsión de las guerras. Especialmente en los temas del dinero y de las finanzas, las ideas más neoclásicas se han generalizado casi sin cuestionamiento. El equilibrio fiscal, e incluso el superávit de las finanzas públicas, son el mantra tantas veces repetido en nuestros países, de obligado cumplimiento, mientras que el mundo desarrollado sostiene importantes déficit casi sin censura. Ello profundiza la brecha entre el desarrollo y el subdesarrollo e impide la determinación soberana y la construcción política e institucional de una vida democrática, libre e independiente de los pueblos de América Latina. Este libro muestra el camino que han tomado las reformas financieras del Washington Consensus y su coherencia con los intereses del corporativo financiero transnacional. Asimismo, plantea la ingente necesidad de recuperar el dinero y las finanzas para el interés de los pueblos latinoamericanos a fin de encontrar nuestro propio camino al desarrollo y a la equidad.

Domesticating Democracy
Author: Susan Helen Ellison
Publisher: Duke University Press
ISBN: 0822371782
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 282
Book Description
In Domesticating Democracy Susan Helen Ellison examines foreign-funded alternate dispute resolution (ADR) organizations that provide legal aid and conflict resolution to vulnerable citizens in El Alto, Bolivia. Advocates argue that these programs help residents cope with their interpersonal disputes and economic troubles while avoiding an overburdened legal system and cumbersome state bureaucracies. Ellison shows that ADR programs do more than that—they aim to change the ways Bolivians interact with the state and with global capitalism, making them into self-reliant citizens. ADR programs frequently encourage Bolivians to renounce confrontational expressions of discontent, turning away from courtrooms, physical violence, and street protest and coming to the negotiation table. Nevertheless, residents of El Alto find creative ways to take advantage of these micro-level resources while still seeking justice and a democratic system capable of redressing the structural violence and vulnerability that ADR fails to treat.

Mapping Diaspora
Author: Patricia de Santana Pinho
Publisher: UNC Press Books
ISBN: 1469645335
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 273
Book Description
Brazil, like some countries in Africa, has become a major destination for African American tourists seeking the cultural roots of the black Atlantic diaspora. Drawing on over a decade of ethnographic research as well as textual, visual, and archival sources, Patricia de Santana Pinho investigates African American roots tourism, a complex, poignant kind of travel that provides profound personal and collective meaning for those searching for black identity and heritage. It also provides, as Pinho's interviews with Brazilian tour guides, state officials, and Afro-Brazilian activists reveal, economic and political rewards that support a structured industry. Pinho traces the origins of roots tourism to the late 1970s, when groups of black intellectuals, artists, and activists found themselves drawn especially to Bahia, the state that in previous centuries had absorbed the largest number of enslaved Africans. African Americans have become frequent travelers across what Pinho calls the "map of Africanness" that connects diasporic communities and stimulates transnational solidarities while simultaneously exposing the unevenness of the black diaspora. Roots tourism, Pinho finds, is a fertile site to examine the tensions between racial and national identities as well as the gendered dimensions of travel, particularly when women are the major roots-seekers.
