Gente del mundo
Read moreTitle Gente del mundo Author Alberto Chimal Publisher Ediciones Era Imprint – ISBN 9786074453416 Edition number 1 Publication year 2014 Pages 122 Format Print and digital THEMA Modern and contemporary fiction: general and literary Synopsis It could be that Gente del mundo is merely a residue, a ruin, what remains of a myriad of civilizations. A handful of short texts, where in a crucial gesture a whole culture is sketched. A collection of illustrations that produce an allegoric image of an entire population. Alberto Chimal is Calvino’s and Borges’ best reader of the latest years because instead of admiring them in quote form, he focuses on reimagining. In an environment oversaturated with fidelity to the press, this book shows up and refreshes the literary scene. foreign rights contact Michelle Pérez Lobo E-mail michelle@edicionesera.com.mx -

La compañia
Read moreTitle La compañia Author Gerber Bicecci, Verónica Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078764860 Edition number 1 Publication year 2023 Pages 216 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis “Any unhappy life can always become a hell,” Amparo Dávila once said in a story. La Compañía, by Verónica Gerber Bicecci, looks at this warning from its mirror: “any bonanza can always become an unhappy life,” by rewriting one of the most famous stories of the Zacatecan woman. As a premonition, this story reveals the psychological, environmental and social consequences that extractive projects produce in the territories where they are located. With photographs, diagrams, testimonies, reports and interviews, as well as elements of La máquina estética by the Zacatecan visual artist Manuel Felguérez, La Compañía reconstructs the history of Nuevo Mercurio, Zacatecas, a town where an abandoned and ruined mine haunts the collective memory. Writing appears here as an extractive gesture: a formal and conceptual exploration of the processes of dispossession involved in contemporary mining. This book avoids any precise classification and confirms that there is no category that suffices to describe the work of Verónica Gerber Bicecci: rewriting, photography, narrative, chronicle, fantastic story, science fiction. Writing appears here as a critical, formal and conceptual exploration of the processes of dispossession involved in contemporary mining. The Company haunts our present and embodies that monstrous creature that confronts us with the difficult question about the future. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

El lawfare. Golpes de Estado en nombre de la ley
Read moreTitle El lawfare. 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 -
