El mercado digital en la Unión Europea
Las revoluciones tecnológicas suelen estar necesitadas de un acompañamiento normativo que acoja las nuevas realidades y las integre en el sistema (recepción jurídica). La Revolución Digital, en la que nos encontramos inmersos desde hace un par de décadas, no es una excepción. La Unión Europea decidió en 2015 iniciar una estrategia política de recepción jurídica de la Revolución Digital a través de la Estrategia para el Mercado Único Digital de Europa (EMUDE o DSMS), con la doble intención de desarrollar una suerte de proyección digital del Mercado Único Europeo en el seno de la Unión, y de aprovechar el potencial económico que esta revolución tecnológica representa para...
Ciudades circulares y viviendas saludables
La obra que se presenta aborda la necesidad de atender el examen de la sostenibilidad desde la perspectiva de la inteligencia territorial, pero en confluencia con la necesidad de atención a la emergencia climática, y a la singularidad tecnológica como elementos clave que nos permiten aprehender la respuesta que los operadores públicos deben dar para adecuar las premisas urbanas de nuestras ciudades a los nuevos retos que ha revelado los recientes escenarios sindémicos que atravesamos. La emergencia sanitaria y la crisis económica-energética, derivada de los escenarios de confrontación internacional, nos han situado ante la constatación de una necesidad de cambio en la gestión de lo...
Self Portrait in Green
'NDiaye is a hypnotic storyteller with an unflinching understanding of the rock-bottom reality of most people's life.' New York Times ' One of France's most exciting prose stylists.' The Guardian. Obsessed by her encounters with the mysterious green women, and haunted by the Garonne River, a nameless narrator seeks them out in La Roele, Paris, Marseille, and Ouagadougou. Each encounter reveals different aspects of the women; real or imagined, dead or alive, seductive or suicidal, driving the narrator deeper into her obsession, in this unsettling exploration of identity, memory and paranoia. Self Portrait in Green is the multi-prize winning, Marie NDiaye's brilliant subversion of the memoir. Written in diary entries, with lyrical prose and dreamlike imagery, we start with and return to the river, which mirrors the narrative by posing more questions than it answers.
Conquistadoras
Though women played an integral role in the conquest of the New World, little has been written about their contributions. This Spanish-language work examines the lives and deeds of women who influenced the course of history in the Americas some 500 years ago. Covered in detail are the lives of Maria de Toledo, first woman governor in America; Isabel de Bobadilla, governor of Cuba and instrumental in the Spanish expedition to Florida; Ana Francisca de Borja, governor of Peru and a military leader; Beatriz de la Cueva, governor of Guatemala and a political leader; Maria de Penalosa, governor of Nicaragua and a military strategist; Isabel Barreto y Quiros, first and only woman admiral of the Sp...
Passing to América
In 1803 in the colonial South American city of La Plata, Doña Martina Vilvado y Balverde presented herself to church and crown officials to denounce her husband of more than four years, Don Antonio Yta, as a “woman in disguise.” Forced to submit to a medical inspection that revealed a woman’s body, Don Antonio confessed to having been María Yta, but continued to assert his maleness and claimed to have a functional “member” that appeared, he said, when necessary. Passing to América is at once a historical biography and an in-depth examination of the sex/gender complex in an era before “gender” had been divorced from “sex.” The book presents readers with the original court...
