Petróleo, poder y civilización (Tercera edición)

Routledge Studies in Crime and Society

Moving beyond simplistic and sensationalist portrayals of kidnapping, this book offers a critical and interdisciplinary analysis that examines kidnapping as a social, historical, cultural, and political phenomenon.Kidnapping is a profound violation of human rights that reshapes societies, disrupts governance, and inflicts lasting trauma on individuals and communities. In Colombia, kidnapping became an endemic feature of the armed conflict, leaving tens of thousands of families in a perpetual state of uncertainty and fear. Through an innovative blend of criminology, sociology, transitional justice, surveillance studies, and collective memory epistemologies, this book unpacks kidnapping as a crime of (im)mobility, a strategy of war, and a serious human rights violation. Drawing on fifteen years of research, including statistical analysis, archival work, and interviews with former hostages, ex-combatants, and policymakers, it reveals how kidnapping shaped Colombia's conflict and its ongoing efforts toward justice, truth, and reconciliation. By exploring its patterns, motivations, and legacies, this book not only sheds light on Colombia's experience but also contributes to global discussions on transitional justice, collective memory, and the strategies societies adopt to confront mass victimisation.The Social Construction of Kidnapping is essential reading for scholars and students of criminology, transitional justice, human rights, political violence, and Latin American studies, as well as policymakers, human rights advocates, and anyone seeking a deeper understanding of how societies confront legacies of mass victimisation and forge paths toward accountability and healing.

The Social Construction of Kidnapping

El Modelo del Ingreso Circular

El ingreso universal que nunca se detiene

A wild scavenger hunt spanning continents and centuries
Lisbon, 1954. In the Military History Archives, a mysterious figure steals the Final Will and Testament of Garoto&nbsp;Bárbaro de Castro-a list of thirteen bequests, and a record of Garoto's remarkable life story. It is also a window onto the many other lives connected to his, including that of the archival thief: his descendent, Nuno Bárbaro de Castro.
After stealing Garoto's Final Will and Testament, Nuno Bárbaro de Castro-artifact hunter, grave robber, fake veterinarian, and agent of Angolan Independence-sets off to hunt the listed artifacts, while also collecting the distant relatives of those mentioned in the Will, even when they don't want to be collected...
A rowdy, darkly funny, centuries-spanning revenge drama, The Wreckers moves between Portugal, Angola, Cuba, and Louisiana's 'Angola' prison to examine the scars of the transatlantic slave trade, and the consequences of prolonged civil war.

The Wreckers

'The Havana Syndrome is terrific - and terrifying. The authors have cut through the fog of secrets, screwups, and cover-ups to bring you this illuminating book. It will rob you of your sleep and send shivers up your spine.' TIM WEINER, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Mission and Legacy of Ashes THE TRUE STORY OF JOURNALISTS WHO UNCOVERED A NEW SECRET WEAPON THAT CAN STRIKE THROUGH WALLS WITHOUT LEAVING A TRACE...In the fall of 2017, reports of mysterious 'sonic' attacks on U.S. diplomats began emerging from Havana, Cuba. Victims were struck down in their homes and offices. They described hearing loud buzzing sounds and feeling a sudden, intense wave of pressure hit their bodies. In the aftermath, they suffered debilitating headaches, vertigo, brain fog. In the worst cases, sensory and memory problems became chronic.As investigative journalists Michael Rey and Oriana Zill de Granados began to look into the strange events, they had a chilling realisation. The 'diplomats' getting hit were not only State Department personnel. Many, if not most, were clandestine intelligence officers working undercover. Was someone systematically targeting America's spies?And it wasn't just Cuba. Incidents were occurring in Beijing, Bangkok, Tbilisi, London, Vienna, and other locations. Young children and spouses were getting caught in the cross fire. And yet, as the tally of victims grew, CIA officials were adamant: The illnesses were 'psychosomatic.'In this groundbreaking exposé, two award-winning journalists reveal the hidden history of the so-called Havana Syndrome. Drawing on more than nine years of reporting, secret medical records, whistleblower testimony, and intelligence reports, they uncover not only the technology and perpetrators behind the attacks but the U.S. government's effort to downplay and deny them.With the pace of a thriller, this book brings readers inside the lives of American intelligence officers whose careers and health were destroyed by the attacks, as well as the brave few who risked everything to demand accountability. The Havana Syndrome is a geopolitical saga with chilling lessons for national security and a deeply human story of betrayal and resilience.'Not just a thriller...a tour de force of journalism... The Havana Syndrome is a tale for the ages.' SCOTT PELLEY

The Havana Syndrome

Perdón por la pregunta

Si miras la sociedad, la economía y los conflictos armados actuales, solo puedes ver que hay cada vez más conflictos en nuestro planeta. Las personas individuales gobiernan sobre millones de personas, pero no exactamente en su sentido. Si puedes prevenir algunas cosas es más que cuestionable. He documentado mis opiniones al respecto aquí. Esto no quiere decir que estés de acuerdo, pero debería ser mucho más estimulante.

Rough Guides Caribbean: Travel Guide with eBook

45th Edition

"... enthält viele Überraschungen für den Leser, der die kubanische Wirklichkeit nur aus dem Zerrspiegel der Propaganda kennt ... Ein erstklassiges psychologisches Dokument." - The New York Times Book Review, 1967 An Silvester 1958 reiste der damals noch junge Fotojournalist Lee Lockwood nach Kuba, um über das bevorstehende Ende des Batista-Regimes zu berichten. Er kam einen Tag vor Fidel Castros Machtübernahme an und verbrachte eine Woche damit, sich mit der Insel vertraut zu machen, bevor er schließlich den siegreichen Revolutionsführer selbst traf. Castro fand gleich Gefallen an Lockwood, lud ihn im Laufe des folgenden Jahrzehnts häufig ein, nach Kuba zurückzukehren, und gewährte ihm besonderen Zugang zu seinem inneren Kreis und völlige Bewegungsfreiheit, um die Insel ohne die Einschränkungen zu erkunden, die US-amerikanischen Journalisten üblicherweise auferlegt wurden. Wie viele Journalisten vor und nach ihm musste Lockwood lange auf ein Interview mit Castro warten, doch dann gewährte ihm der kubanische Revolutionsführer ein siebentägiges Marathon-Interview, in dem alles angesprochen wurde, was damals auf der Agenda stand - von Rassenproblemen in den USA bis zur Kubakrise. Dieses Interview zählt bis heute zu den aufschlussreichsten Zeugnissen dieser Epoche. Lockwoods Gespräche und Beobachtungen, die ursprünglich 1967 veröffentlicht wurden, werden hier von TASCHEN nebst Hunderten von Fotografien nachgedruckt, die sowohl die Wochen dokumentieren, in denen Lockwood an der Seite Castros durchs Land reiste, als auch die Entwicklungen im Kuba der 1960er-Jahre zeigen: von Militärlagern in den Bergen der Sierra Maestra über das Leben auf den Straßen Havannas bis hin zu politischen Massenkundgebungen. Ein Vor- und ein Nachwort des Lateinamerikaexperten Saul Landau stellt Lockwoods Arbeit in ihren historischen Kontext.
