Serie de circunstancias posibles en torno a una mujer mexicana de clase trabajadora
Read moreTitle Serie de circunstancias posibles en torno a una mujer mexicana de clase trabajadora Author Segura, Yolanda Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078851331 Edition number 2 Publication year 2023 Pages 80 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis In the space that poetry opens between the flow of everyday words, a series of possible circumstances surrounding a working-class Mexican woman, she analyzes one of the core concepts of the capitalist economy. What is the “middle class”? Who is part of it? Is there a way to describe it, to count it? Are its members defined by the calculation of their income, what they own or dream of? By their future projects? While reflecting on these questions, Yolanda Segura tells the story of Eloísa, a woman born in the 1940s who has worked since she was very young. With a stable job and a secure salary, she soon faces the possibility of getting married and having a family. She wants to guarantee herself a prosperous and happy existence. Will it be enough to have a husband, to work her day, to obtain a mortgage loan? Why does the economic growth of a person or a country always happen in the future and never in the present? Do financial benefits increase social well-being? In the midst of inflation and wage cuts, of crisis and debt, how will she manage her time, desires and affections? Are there other ways to invent a livable life for a working woman? For Yolanda Segura, a poem is a form of resistance, a way of cancelling the economic value of language. 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
