El lawfare. Golpes de Estado en nombre de la ley

Golpes de Estado en nombre de la ley Author Fernández Noroña, José Gerardo Rodolfo; Serrano Jiménez, Pascual ; Tirado Sánchez, Arantxa Publisher EdicionesAkal México Imprint AKAL ISBN 9786078683642 Edition number 1 Publication year 2021 Pages 256 Format Printed THEMA Civil and Political Rights Synopsis The wave of leftist governments that characterized Latin America and the Caribbean since the end of the 20th century formed a geopolitical map adverse to the interests of the US public-private sector in the region. To change the correlation of forces, lawfare or judicial war has entered the scene, an apparently democratic mechanism in accordance with the law, for which that undermine the power, image and chances of re-election of the left's leaders. Little is said, however, about the origin of lawfare as a military strategy, framed in a broad-spectrum war, today called hybrid war, which seeks, through the combination of judicial, media, political or economic operations, the reconfiguration of hemispheric geopolitics. If in previous decades the blows The classic state policies served to prevent the ruling left from deploying its political agenda from the institutions or even occupying them, today lawfare exercises the same function, but taking refuge in legality and maintaining democratic appearances. We are witnessing, then, the paradoxical demolition of the rule of law in the name of law. But this threat is not limited to Latin American territory, which, as so many times before, has continued to be a testing laboratory. Once the "effectiveness" of this new system tool has been confirmed, what prevents it from being applied in other countries? And there are very close signs that point in this direction. foreign rights contact Jorge Betanzos E-mail jorge.betanzos@akal.com -

Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078667970 Edition number 1 Publication year 2020 Pages 160 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis What happens when love, intelligence, genius and poetry are not enough? Where do you run to when it seems that what you are looking for is to return? Through scenes of neat simplicity, Jorge Volpi turns the darkness of private life into the light of public life, showing us that severity and sadness hide behind the smallest acts. Volpi dramatizes the intense and stormy relationship between Sylvia Plath, Ted Hughes, Assia and David Wevill and invites the reader to draw back the curtain that covers the strength and weakness of two brilliant women who, because of the same illness, ended their lives in the same way. Las agujas dementes explores in each act the paths of life, poetry and suicide. In this new installment, Volpi once again shows us the versatility of his writing, where each word takes on an incendiary character more than ever. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

He has a trip schedule in mind, but people pester him in the streets and bars, and finally police will arrest him at a little jail behind the medieval walls of Burgos.

La muerte de la lengua inglesa
Read moreTitle La muerte de la lengua inglesa Author Moscona, Myriam Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078667802 Edition number 1 Publication year 2020 Pages 112 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis Myriam Moscona enunciates the death of the English language through twenty-nine poems written around the death of artists whose work was written in English – such as Ernest Hemingway, William Carlos Williams, Emily Dickinson, Edgar Allan Poe, Agatha Christie, Lord Byron, Leonard Cohen, Dylan Thomas, Elizabeth Bishop and Anne Sexton, among others. The author investigates language with the curiosity and wit that distinguish her, to find in words their powerful plasticity to create sounds and images. Beyond the playful composition that distances the poems from funereal solemnity, there is something disconcerting: why would the English language die? If English is the most widely spoken language in the world, the lingua franca of communications, business and science, what would have to happen – besides the death of its most excellent poets – for the English language to disappear? foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -
La piel insomne
Read moreTitle La piel insomne Author Montiel, Mauricio Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078667468 Edition number 1 Publication year 2020 Pages 256 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis The selection of stories that make up La piel insomne is, in the author’s words, a kind of director’s version, a settling of scores with certain texts written and published between 1987 and 1993, and which were originally included in the books Donde la piel es tu tibio silencio, Páginas para una siesta húmeda and Insomnios del otro lado. In addition, the final section, “Bonus tracks”, brings together five stories that appeared in periodical publications or anthologies, but which have not been collected in books. Montiel Figueiras dared to venture down the paths of revision and rewriting, to reorder the index of a book that tells us about his first years as a narrator, a time when he already demonstrated a writing fluency and a literary ability that have led him to occupy a prominent place among the authors of his generation. These stories display the prose that characterizes the writer's work: a sinuous reality plagued by labyrinths, threatening or sensual presences that threaten to change the world, plots that lead us to discover the darkness that inhabits every thing and being that inhabits the universe. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078667239 Edition number 1 Publication year 2019 Pages 406 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis Subjects whose encyclopedic knowledge leads them to the top and then to the abyss of their biographies, men obsessed with the idea of death, professors determined to teach extremely simple subjects in extremely complicated ways, presidents who want to sell the country they govern to the highest bidder, literary characters who get out of their roles and commit crazy things left and right. Francisco Hinojosa's imagination fractures plots so unpredictable that on each page his stories take unusual turns, become complicated in unexpected ways and always mutate into the craziest version of themselves. The characters have absurd, generally modest lives, they can even be overwhelmed by comfort and boredom, until one day fate takes a turn and their days become a stepping stone to the unexpected. The reader has in his hands the most comprehensive collection of the author's short stories, a map that indicates his hidden depths, his wild desires and the most surprising stories that make him up. This volume represents an event for Francisco Hinojosa's readers and a true honour for our publishing house: it is the celebration of a literary work that, for several decades, has earned the admiration and affection of everyone. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

In this collection of stories, Andrea Chapela masterfully narrates a future where a collection of devices such as sensory screens, pings, ansibles, contact lenses and profilers – many of them installed inside the human body – allow people to connect to a cloud, control their perceptions of reality, know other people's thoughts, share and "live" the experiences of others, as well as calculate the success of a romantic relationship or make calls that reproduce the physical presence of the interlocutors. Technology seems inseparable from human experience, from decision-making and everyday tasks; however, the protagonists of these stories, far from having their lives figured out, face love, breakups, the complexity of their family relationships and the search for their own identity while the limits of reality are increasingly less clear. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

Una historia crítica de la idea de vida. El paradigma bio-teo-político de la autarquía
Read moreTitle Una historia crítica de la idea de vida. El paradigma bio-teo-político de la autarquía Author Martín Grassi Publisher Sb editorial Imprint Sb editorial ISBN 9789878918242 Edition number 1 Publication year 2022 Pages 232 Format Printed THEMA Philosophy Synopsis The present book embarks on a critical-conceptual history of the notion of life in the West. The different discourses around life (such as biology, ethics, politics, phenomenology and theology) characterize it by its capacity to be a cause and principle of itself. Hence, we can speak of a bio-political paradigm of autarky. This deconstructive analysis shows that if the characteristic of life and the living is its being referred to itself, then all contact and trade with the other is either accidental or anecdotal. foreign rights contact Andrés Telesca E-mail andres.telesca@editorialsb.com -

Pantano

Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078851706 Edition number 1 Publication year 2024 Pages 200 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis In the United States, the border does not end at the violent and hyper-surveilled riverbed of the Rio Grande; checkpoints persist within the territory in school hallways, on freshly cut grass where flags wave, in hospitals and in the kitchens of homes, in the parking lot of a Walmart. In the midst of the unprecedented increase in Latin American migration, attempts to contain it are intensified when racism and hate speech demand to be heard. In this scenario, Ana Emilia Felker decides to live four years in Houston to study for a doctorate. She knows that it will be difficult to feel at home in this country where war and death are negotiated with nationality and debt, but this land is also the place of origin and residence of half of her family. Setting out on a journey across water, desert, and highways, she questions how much the American dream costs, what defines whiteness, how to talk about mass shootings while respecting the dignity of the victims, while helping her grandfather sort out his stories and trying to reestablish with her father a conversation that seems stuck in the past. Through chronicles, essays, and personal diaries, Ana Emilia proposes a writing that is as intimate as it is rigorous to think about identity, question racism, and tell what happens when loved ones are separated by walls that cut across space, time, and desire. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078667291 Edition number 1 Publication year 2020 Pages 207 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis Palmeras de la brisa rápido is one of Juan Villoro's most famous chronicles and a classic of Latin American travel literature. With a personal search as its driving force and a publishing commission as its chassis, this agile story concentrates an innumerable quantity of wonders that only the "sister republic" of Yucatan has been able to engender thanks to its history, geography and taste for syncretism: pyramids that are too arduous, dishes of an unsurpassed baroque style, ubiquitous souvenir sellers, dentures exported abroad, a very unique Spanish: the infinite wonders of Yucatecan culture. With an eagerness born from the search for his own roots, Villoro - son and grandson of Yucatecans - brings together a diverse series of characters inside the legendary Volkswagen in which he traveled the peninsula: the chess player who challenged Capablanca, troubadours who renew the eternal art of dying of love, the most courteous of hard rock groups, a socialist baseball league. Ultimately, and as the author himself defined it, this is a journey to a narrative style but, above all, to an emotional destination. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -
