Publisher: Parlor Press LLC
ISBN: 1643170015
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 486
Book Description
Genre studies and genre approaches to literacy instruction continue to develop in many regions and from a widening variety of approaches. Genre has provided a key to understanding the varying literacy cultures of regions, disciplines, professions, and educational settings. GENRE IN A CHANGING WORLD provides a wide-ranging sampler of the remarkable variety of current work. The twenty-four chapters in this volume, reflecting the work of scholars in Europe, Australasia, and North and South America, were selected from the over 400 presentations at SIGET IV (the Fourth International Symposium on Genre Studies) held on the campus of UNISUL in Tubarão, Santa Catarina, Brazil in August 2007—the largest gathering on genre to that date. The chapters also represent a wide variety of approaches, including rhetoric, Systemic Functional Linguistics, media and critical cultural studies, sociology, phenomenology, enunciation theory, the Geneva school of educational sequences, cognitive psychology, relevance theory, sociocultural psychology, activity theory, Gestalt psychology, and schema theory. Sections are devoted to theoretical issues, studies of genres in the professions, studies of genre and media, teaching and learning genre, and writing across the curriculum. The broad selection of material in this volume displays the full range of contemporary genre studies and sets the ground for a next generation of work.

De la IIª Guerra Mundial a la Guerra Fría. Tomo II
Author: Javier Fisac Seco
Publisher: Lulu.com
ISBN: 1291420614
Category : History
Languages : es
Pages : 331
Book Description
Este segundo tomo arranca del escenario geoestratégico y geopolítico creado al finalizar la IIa Guerra Mundial porque sobre ese escenario se fueron construyendo los bloques en torno a los cuales se configuró la tensión internacional que caracterizó la Guerra Fría. Una tensión militar, política e ideológica. Con una amenaza tras el telón: la guerra nuclear, que por garantizar la destrucción mutua de ambos bloques fue capaz de mantener la tensión sin desencadenar la guerra entre ambos. Una paradoja del equilibrio de fuerzas nucleares. Los orígenes de la "Guerra fría" están situados claramente en la respuesta soviética a la "Doctrina Truman", 1947, cuando Moscú reorganizó los partidos comunistas en torno a la Kominform, a finales del mismo año. Fue en esa conferencia donde se habló por vez primera de la existencia de "dos mundos o bloques". La tensión en Corea tuvo como consecuencia un sistema de tres alianzas: OTAN, SEATO y CENTO, De esta situación arrancará la "coexistencia pacífica".

Services Trade in the Western Hemisphere
Author: Sherry M. Stephenson
Publisher: Rowman & Littlefield
ISBN: 9780815721024
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 284
Book Description
A Brookings Institution Press and the Organization of American States publication The services sector—including financial services, telecommunications, transportation, tourism, and professional services—has become critical to the continued economic dynamism in the Americas. And the quality and competitiveness of this sector are essential to economic growth and development. On average, services—increasingly traded in more numerous and far-reaching ways than goods—account for nearly two-thirds of the gross domestic product of the Western Hemisphere. The importance of the sector, however, is disproportionately large in Central America and the Caribbean, where it often is the major source of employment and of foreign exchange.This timely volume is the first to review and analyze trade agreements covering the services sector in the Western Hemisphere and their relationship to the General Agreement on Trade in Services (GATS), in force since 1995 as an integral part of the World Trade Organization (WTO). Negotiations on liberalizing services trade are continuing at the multilateral, the regional or hemispheric, and the subregional levels. It is imperative to understand what is being discussed and implemented at these different levels and to articulate the linkages and relationships among the various agreements and the disciplines and obligations they contain. Services Trade in the Western Hemisphere informs the reader about these issues and more. Part 1 deals with the main issues relevant to the liberalization of services trade at the multilateral and regional levels, including improvements to the GATS architecture, the scope of regulatory reform, the relationship between the treatment of services and investment, WTO requirements that must be fulfilled by parties to an economic integration agreement, and disagreements brought to the multilateral dispute settlement process. Part 2 examines the scope, content, and liberalizing approach of subregional agreements in the Western Hemisphere, such as the North American Free Trade Agreement and those p

Hacia el Libre Comercio en las Americas
Author: Jose Manuel Salazar-Xirinachs

ISBN: 9780815716808
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 348
Book Description
A Brookings Institution Press and the Organization of American States publication This is the Spanish language version of Toward Free Trade in America. In the past 15 years, the nations of the Western Hemisphere have staged a remarkable revolution—in the way they trade with their neighbors. First, after decades of restrictive import policies, several countries began to liberalize their trade and investment regimes. Then, beginning a decade ago, numerous bilateral and sub-regional trade agreements were achieved, to serve as vital complements to domestic reforms and to foster trade flows among member countries. At the Second Summit of the Americas in 1998, negotiations among 34 democracies were launched to establish the Free Trade Area of the Americas (FTAA). This report takes stock of the remarkable progress to date in the development of free trade in the Western Hemisphere. It examines trade flows between countries in the same regional groupings and between members of different sub-regional arrangements. The report describes the main characteristics of the trade arrangements signed between countries of the Hemisphere and explores the development of trade rules in these arrangements. Finally, the report details recent advances in the construction of the FTAA.
