Earthscan Food and Agriculture

Focusing on the Latin American Andes region, this book examines how emerging decolonial narratives, practices, and rules have opened possibilities for structural change in agri-food systems. The book argues that the contemporary global agri-food crisis is the outcome of a modern and colonial worldview that has reached its limits. Addressing it requires deep transformations related to power, values, and ways of being and knowing. Over the last thirty-five years, the Andean region has experienced a 'transmodern turn', planting the seeds for deep transitions towards alternatives like Buen Vivir while challenging established global north paradigms. Using agricultural seeds as the site of analysis, the book reveals how struggles over knowledge, authority, and legitimacy are condensed in everyday practices of seed production, exchange, and regulation. It traces how Andean Seed Guardian Networks engaged the state to gradually reshape seed systems. During the early 21st Century, Colombia, Ecuador, and Venezuela became sites of significant institutional experimentation. Resulting reconfigurations of state-society relations led to novel governance arrangements and micro-institutions that challenge extractivist industrialist agriculture while advancing food sovereignty and agrobiodiversity. The book is theoretically plural, drawing on social practice theory, discourse theory, new institutionalism, and sustainability transitions theory to analyse how alternative worldviews are materialised and institutionalised. It contributes to debates on just transitions, epistemic justice, and the decolonisation of global food systems.This book will be of interest to scholars and practitioners in food studies, sustainability transitions, development studies, political ecology, social innovation, and Latin American studies.

Springer Textbooks in Law

The book, which systematically analyzes private international law rules contained in the Colombian legal system, contributes to the study and knowledge of this legal field, and also has a positive impact on its practical application. In addition, attention is given to the need for a special legislation that not only fits the Colombian reality and takes into consideration the evolution of private international law in Latin America. The book appeals to a worldwide audience. It enables readers to better understand how private law deals with a variety of situations in the Global South. Such situations can be linked to virtually all global phenomena, including at least two: cross-border migration and international trade. Regarding this, Colombia stands out in Latin America because, although it has traditionally been the origin of many migrants, in recent years it has also come to play an important role as a destination and transit country for migrants from different regions. In addition,Colombia’s economic growth has led it to become part of several international trade agreements, for example, with the Andean Community, Venezuela, Mexico, MERCOSUR, Chile, the Northern Triangle, which includes Guatemala, El Salvador and Honduras, and also with Canada, the European Free Trade Association (EFTA), the United States, the European Union, South Korea, Costa Rica and the Pacific Alliance, of which Chile, Colombia, Mexico and Peru are members. All this, while resulting in an increase in situations with foreign elements that must be dealt with by national authorities, makes it unavoidable to know the Colombian private international law to know the legal landscape of the region in relation to global issues that currently must be addressed worldwide. Thus, the book is of interest to students in different countries. They find in it a guide to understand the theory and dogmatics of private international law in Latin America and Colombia. The academic relevance of the book is alsoreflected in its usefulness for scholars working in private international law and comparative law. It allows for an in-depth study of the problems that underly private international law in this part of the Global South. It is structured and written in such a way that it can be used as a textbook in undergraduate and graduate courses in subjects such as comparative law, private international law, international contracts, international trade, and international movement of persons and goods.

A Private International Law for Colombia

Aus der Reihe: e-fellows.net stipendiaten-wissen

Master's Thesis from the year 2021 in the subject Economics - Case Scenarios, grade: 2, University of Bayreuth (Economics), language: English, abstract: Climate change is one of the world's major challenges to overcome. After the 2015 Paris Agreement, 196 countries around the globe agreed to undertake policy measures for keeping the average rise of global temperature below 2° Celsius by 2050. The main goal of this global governance framework is to help the parties mobilize financial resources and mitigate the effects of climate change. Under the agreement, every country must regularly report its contributions to emission reductions.

The governmental budgets worldwide will not be sufficient to finance the necessary climate change mitigation and adaptation infrastructure projects. On the one hand, there exists a large investment gap in developing countries of around 530 billion United States dollar (USD) that need to be invested by 2030 solely in the energy sector to meet the countries’ sustainable infrastructure needs. Since the urbanization rate is rapidly increasing, especially cities in emerging economies urgently need large amounts of capital. On the other hand, large institutional investors are increasingly introducing Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) criteria in their investment decisions and incorporating ‘green’ mandates in their statutes. One potential instrument to meet policymaker’s and investor’s needs are green bonds (GBs).

Therefore, this research aims to investigate the market barriers for municipal green bonds (MGBs) in Colombia. Since the topic has a niche character, the research method is based on a literature review and three experts’ interviews to add an insightful perspective of market practitioners. The structural barriers identified as obstacles to market development were macroeconomic variables that limit the access to capital markets, political variables such as corruption, conflicts, rivalries between parties and cortoplacismo as well as market skepticism to-wards new financial instruments and ‘green’ topics. Additionally, some specific market barriers of the green bonds market are significantly high transaction costs, lack of technical knowledge, dependence on external market actors, liquidity, and greenwashing risk. The last chapter of this master thesis presents policy recommendations for three key market actors: Colombian municipalities, the central government, and multilateral development banks.

¿Cómo enfrentar la desigualdad socioeconómica?

This elegantly designed publication explores Oscar Murillo’s ambitious reimagining of Monet through a contemporary lens. 
 What happens when the radical beauty of Claude Monet’s late paintings meets the political tensions of the present? Interdisciplinary artist Oscar Murillo explores that question in a sweeping body of work that reimagines perception, power, and place through the language of mark-making. At its core is surge (social cataracts)—a series of large-scale, visually arresting paintings that echo Monet’s Grainstacks, Houses of Parliament, and Water Lilies, while confronting the political dimension of seeing and not seeing by positing darkness as a space of speculation for a new reading of impressionism. These works appear alongside further paintings by Murillo as well as his long-running Frequencies project, created in collaboration with schoolchildren across the globe, and participatory pieces that extend his practice beyond the studio and into the public realm. The result is a layered meditation on visibility, landscape, and the politics of artistic labor—across borders and generations. Designed with a modern flair to reflect the energy and ambition of the project, the book includes full-bleed plates, striking installation photography, and images from community-based projects. Both a record of a major artistic undertaking and a reflection of Murillo’s socially engaged approach, it offers an immersive look at a practice that is as materially rich as it is conceptually urgent.

Análisis desde el páramo de Santurbán en el municipio de Cácota

Desarrollo y participación en los páramos de Colombia

A lo largo de la historia nacional no ha existido una reivindicación tan fuertemente defendida como la que representa el derecho de libertad religiosa, la cual ha pasado por episodios tan trágicos como el que motivó las tristemente célebres e injustas Leyes de Reforma, o la sangrienta persecución religiosa, fomentada y festejada por Plutarco Elías Calles, conocida como La Cristiada. Pero no todo ha sido oscurantismo en la protección de este derecho; han existido instantes de lucidez y esperanza en la legislación nacional como las reformas constitucionales de 1992, o las hechas a los artículos 24 y 40 en 2012. ¿Qué ha resultado de todo esto?&#13;
&#13;
Sin duda, hoy estamos mejor que hace 100 años. Sin embargo, la verdadera reivindicación de la libertad religiosa en México está todavía muy lejos de hacerse realidad, no sólo por el acendrado laicismo decimonónico imperante en México, sino también por los fuertes ataques que este derecho sufre cotidianamente y que provienen de instancias internacionales como la ONU, la cual en vez de protegerlo y fomentarlo se ha dedicado sistemáticamente a restringirlo hasta el punto actual de hacerlo desaparecer. No hace falta más que ver el último informe del relator especial para la libertad religiosa.&#13;
&#13;
El derecho fundamental de libertad religiosa en el México de hoy (una visión crítica) es un texto que intenta resumir la historia legislativa y jurisprudencial de este derecho en los últimos veinticinco años. Se propone también exponer argumentos científicos que demuestran la urgente necesidad de defender el derecho humano por antonomasia como es el de libertad religiosa, con la esperanza de que a partir de aquí se pueda ir más allá, y no se deje al antojo del poder su reivindicación.

“T.J. English hits the bullseye again. This is true crime writing at its most gripping and immediate — a riveting epic about crooked cops, lawyers, prosecutors, judges, and politicians who corrupted a continent and got snow to flow out of the tropics. The Last Kilo is a revelation.” —Nicholas Pileggi, author of Goodfellas and CasinoFrom true-crime legend T. J. English, the epic, behind-the-scenes saga of “Los Muchachos,” one of the most successful cocaine trafficking organizations in American history—a story of glitz, glamour, and organized crime set against the notorious 1980s Miami drug war.Despite what Scarface might lead one to believe, violence was not the dominant characteristic of the cocaine business. It was corruption: the dirty cops, agents, lawyers, judges, and politicians who made the drug world go round. And no one managed that carousel of dangerous players in the South Florida underworld better than Willy Falcon.A Cuban exile whose family escaped Fidel Castro’s Cuba when he was eleven years old, Falcon, as a teenager, became active in the anti-Castro movement. He began smuggling cocaine into the U.S. as a way to raise money to buy arms for the Contras in Central America. This counter-revolutionary activity led directly to Willy’s genesis as a narco. He and his partners built an extraordinary international organization from the ground up. Los Muchachos, the syndicate founded by Falcon, thrived as a major cocaine distribution network in the U.S. from the late 1970’s into the early 1990’s. At their height, Los Muchachos made more than a hundred million dollars a year. At the same time, Willy, his brother Tavy Falcon, and partner Sal Magluta became famous as championship powerboat racers.Cocaine, used by everyone from A-list celebrities to lawyers and people in law enforcement, came to define the Cocaine Cowboys era, and for a time, Willy Falcon and those like him—major suppliers, of whom there were only a few—became stars in their own right. They were the deliverers of good times, at least until the downside of persistent cocaine use became apparent: delusions of grandeur, psychological addiction, financial ruin. Thus, the War on Drugs was born, and federal authorities came after Falcon and his crew with a vengeance. Willy found himself on the run, his marriage and family life in shambles, the halcyon days of boat races and lavish trips to Vegas and parties at the Mutiny night club seemingly a distant memory.T.

Willy Falcon and the Cocaine Empire That Seduced America

The Last Kilo

“Truth is always stranger than fiction. . . A stunning, riveting and extraordinary real-life story of life in the shadows." –#1 International Bestselling Author Don WinslowThe gripping true story, that reads like fiction, of&nbsp;how legendary FBI Special Agent Martin Suarez went deep undercover—and lived a double-life for years—to infiltrate Colombia's most insidious drug cartels.Martin Suarez, a legend within the FBI who specialized in Colombian drug cartels, holds the record for the longest time spent continuously undercover. As his alter ego Manny, Martin followed the unspoken rules of the cartels: He knew the right lingo to use, the right whiskey to drink, the right watch to wear, the wrong questions to ask. He smuggled over $1 billion worth of cocaine into the United States for the Medellín Cartel and, as his cover deepened, he graduated to become a high-level money launderer for the North Coast Cartel. He helped wash tens of millions of dollars worth of drug money, ensnaring himself in a high-stakes game of cat and mouse while simultaneously exposing the Black Market Peso Exchange, the most insidious money laundering apparatus in the world that involved billionaire bankers, blue-chip American corporations, and even the President of Colombia himself.Martin was raised by a father who served in the military and valorized the nobility of the FBI, and Martin stopped at nothing to allow his father to live vicariously through his son. He wanted nothing more than to make his father proud—and to be a good husband to his wife, and a loving father to his two young sons. He became a man caught between two worlds—that of an undercover agent who wanted to rid the world of its evils, but also that of a family man who was trying not to lose himself in this dark, brutal underworld that captivated the globe during the War on Drugs.And yet his worlds begin to collide as danger creeps dangerously close to his doorstep when his cover is blown and a cartel-hired sicario comes hunting for him.Inside the Cartel is told with the pulse-racing action of a Hollywood blockbuster.&nbsp;This is the story of Suarez and his time undercover and how maintaining the trust of hardened criminals can start to tear away at even the most principled soldier.
