Para ello, el análisis comienza con el estudio de las fuentes coyunturales e historicas de este derecho. asi como su evolucion normativa tanto en el ambito internacional como en el local, en el que se consolida como una obligacion estatal en el marco del bloque de constitucionalidad a partir del Convenio 169 de 1989 y la Ley 21 de 1991.

Espectaculo que muchos de los que miran consumen felizmente hipnotizados. Buscar la verdad, elegir bien las palabras, contar lo que pasa con una mirada para quien peor lo pasa, de eso va este libro.

La metáfora espacial vertical se ha convertido en la principal forma expresiva del principio de jerarquía que, así, parece formar parte de los procesos cognitivos del ser humano. Nos cuesta darnos cuenta, pero cuando hablamos del "ascensor social" que premia a los mas "capaces y merecedores", cuando evocamos el "paracaidas social" para los perdedores en la "carrera" de la vida o aludimos a las subidas y escalado- res, utilizamos metaforas espaciales cuyos origenes son muy antiguos. Asi, quienes detentan el poder y estan "arriba" son sistematicamente definidos como "superiores", mientras que quienes lo padecen, estando "abajo", son "inferiores" o "subalternos". Todo esto tiene importantes repercusiones en las democracias liberales. Es precisamente un proceso de polarizacion el que esta poniendo en peligro el pacto social que ha apoyado a los Estados occidentales en las ultimas decadas, determinando en todo el mundo un retroceso de la democracia constitucional. ¿Como puede el derecho contribuir para evitar el deslizamiento hacia regimenes autoritarios? El libro sostiene que el constitucionalismo social posterior a la Segunda Guerra Mundial sigue teniendo validez, pero que hay que despojarlo de cualquier barniz jerarquico y valorar su dimension horizontal y cultural. Porque, aunque a veces lo olvidemos, este es el objetivo del derecho: oponerse a la fuerza, al privilegio, a la inj

Evóquese la provincia de familias católicas, de niños y adolescentes deslumbrados, de tías espantadizas, de curas que eliminan los besos de las películas, "no vaya a ser...", de censores municipales que salvan a los espectadores del vicio nefando de la curiosidad. Alli el niño y el adulto de igual nombre, regresan al pueblo detenido en su lejana movilidad. Y se sumergen en el mar de las mitologias, las suplantaciones, la voluntad de representacion. Del paraiso dislocado se desprenden historias insolitas. Carlos Martinez Assad ha escrito la otra historia de la provincia que todos habitamos. Carlos Monsivais

Self-publishing has transformed the publishing market, democratizing authors access to the reading public. However, with this opening also came a new challenge: how to stand out among millions of available titles? The answer lies in literary SEO a combination of search engine optimization strategies adapted to the specific environment of bookselling platforms like Amazon .SEO (Search Engine Optimization ) is widely used on websites and blogs to improve their positioning in search engines, such as Google. Similarly, literary SEO involves applying these practices in the context of a book, with the aim of improving its visibility on Amazon . Amazon , being the largest online marketplace for books, works similarly to a search engine. Readers enter specific terms in the search bar, and the platforms algorithm filters and displays the most relevant results.Optimizing for Amazon is vital because the platform not only organizes and displays books based on keywords and categories, but also takes into account other factors such as reviews, sales, and content quality. Ignoring these practices means you risk your book getting lost in a vast slew of competing titles.Practical Example:Consider an author who has written a beginners guide to mindfulness . Without any optimization , his book might get lost in the crowd of similar titles. However, by inserting keywords like " mindfulness guide ,""meditation for beginners," and "how to reduce stress," he can target his book to the right audience, ensuring that it appears in relevant searches, thus increasing its chances of selling. Understanding the Amazon AlgorithmAmazon s algorithm , commonly known as A9, is the engine that drives sales on the platform. It decides which books will be displayed to readers, in what order, and in what contexts. For an author, understanding how this algorithm works is like cracking the code to self-publishing success .A9 takes several factors into account when ranking and recommending books, the most important of which are:Learn Much More...

In the traditional publishing world, aspiring authors faced a number of barriers to seeing their work published. Between submitting manuscripts to publishers, waiting for responses, and the possibility of rejection, the process was long, complicated, and often discouraging. With the advent of self-publishing , these barriers began to crumble, offering new possibilities for writers around the world. In this scenario, Kindle Direct Amazon s KDP Publishing has emerged as one of the most influential platforms, democratizing access to publishing and allowing authors to self-publish their works.KDP is a platform that facilitates the publishing of books in digital and printed formats. Created by Amazon in 2007, it allows writers, regardless of their experience or notoriety, to launch their works directly to the global market, without having to go through the scrutiny of large publishers. Through KDP, authors can format, publish and distribute their books both in digital format, for Kindle readers, and in printed format, using Amazon s print-on-demand service .One Platform, Two RealitiesKDP offers two main options for authors: digital publishing and print-on-demand. With digital publishing, books are converted into e-books, which can be purchased and read on Kindle devices or other devices through the Kindle app . Print-on-demand, on the other hand, allows books to be printed only when an order is placed, eliminating the need for initial print runs, storage costs, and inventory concerns.These two options create a new paradigm for authors. On the one hand, e-books offer a fast, affordable, and efficient way to get a book to market. The barrier to entry is low and the costs involved are minimal, allowing authors from anywhere in the world to publish their work. On the other hand, print-on-demand offers authors the possibility of seeing their words materialized on paper, a deep desire for many writers. In addition, printed books still hold significant symbolic value, being preferred by many readers who enjoy the feel, smell, and durability of a physical book.The Power of Autonomy...Learn Much More...

The diversity within an anthology can transform a simple book into a rich journey through multiple literary voices.The Impact of Anthologies on the MarketAnthologies have a significant impact on the publishing industry.

En este poema el autor comparte imágenes de sueños nacidas del inconsciente profundo, vetas hacia una interioridad de carácter mítico u "objetivo", donde la palabra consabida por el consciente personal sufre el accidente llamado poesia. Al aproximarse el sueño a la vision, surge un hablar poetico como emergencia de la relacion entre este y aquella dimension desconocida. El verseo asiste como posibilidad de un dialogo entre lo insondable y la interioridad, resultando un panorama de los movimientos del alma donde llaman recuerdos mas antiguos y originarios que las vivencias terrenas despertando añoranzas de a ella volver.

Una novela que entrelaza amor, arte y humor en un inusual triángulo amoroso en la costa peruana.En plena pandemia y avergonzado de ser una carga familiar, un escritor llamado Santiago del Prado decide ingresar, a sus 51 años, a una casa de senectud en La Punta con el fin de dedicarse a la creacion artistica. En uno de sus paseos por el balneario conoce a Silvia, una hermosa y enigmatica profesora con quien entabla una amistad a la que pronto se suma, de manera insospechada, el recordado comediante Guillermo Cavallini.Aunque la atraccion que Santiago y Guillermo sienten por Silvia crea una silente rivalidad, la relacion de los tres amigos se afianza gracias a una serie de aficiones compartidas: el arte de la injuria, la fascinacion por el haiku, el gusto por la instalacion fotografica, la practica de la poesia escatologica... En suma, el cultivo de la belleza en sus mas diversas manifestaciones, lo que marca el ritmo del triangulo amoroso mas insolito de la historia de la literatura peruana.Concebida como una novela en la poco transitada tradicion de la fotoliteratura, en El mar de Silvia Santiago del Prado se vale de imagen y palabra como los hilos que, enhebrados con precision y artesania, fabrican una escritura ferozmente original en la que humor y amor se entrelazan con irreverencia.
