Summary

Seguimos teniendo las mismas instituciones y mecanismos internacionales que diseñamos luego de la segunda guerra mundial. Dichas instituciones se caracterizan por su fragmentación, disfunciones estructurales como la corrupción, falta de recursos y por una falta de capacidad institucional. El objetivo de este libro es evaluar los desafíos que enfrentan las instituciones internacionales en la protección de los derechos económicos, sociales y culturales. Más específicamente, busca detectar diferentes patrones en dos tipos de actores que incluyen las instituciones financieras internacionales y las instituciones del sistema universal, como la Agencia de la Organización de las Naciones Unidas para los Refugiados. La metodología incluye un diseño de investigación documental comparativo y la evaluación de estudio de casos. Esto incluye una evaluación de varios casos que analizan el papel de las instituciones internacionales y su interacción con los derechos humanos. Intentar encontrar patrones comunes en diferentes estructuras y procesos nos da alguna indicación, una imagen del tipo de problemas que estas instituciones enfrentan actualmente. Los casos estudiados en esta investigación revelan una serie de desafíos que enfrentan dichas instituciones que van desde el fortalecimiento de aspectos organizacionales y estratégicos hasta, en general, el fortalecimiento de la capacidad institucional. Sin embargo, el principal desafío encontrado es el desarrollo de la reflexividad institucional intencional. Esto implica la adopción, por parte de las instituciones internacionales, de una nueva orientación hacia principios y valores. La promoción de este nuevo enfoque debe comenzar con una reestructuración completa a nivel mundial.

    It was Adam Smith (1723–90) who first established economics as a separate branch of knowledge, and many would say his work has never been surpassed. The Wealth of Nations, which appeared in 1776, is the definitive text for all who believe that economic decisions are best left to markets, not governments. At the heart of Smith’s doctrine is an optimistic view of the effects of self-interest. Though each individual seeks only personal gain, the collective result is increased prosperity, which benefits society as a whole.

    The Iranian Plateau has an extensive history dating back to 100,000 BCE!  
Today, Persia is known as the country of Iran, but long ago, Persia was once home to various nomadic tribes. It saw the rise of many empires and dynasties. The Assyrians fell to the Medians, who paved the way for the emergence of the Achaemenid Empire, one of the greatest empires in ancient history. 
Throughout history, Persia made great contributions to the language and culture of the region. Nomadic movements and changing empires meant it was a hub of continuous cultural exploration and development. The Persians established and spread new ways of government, administration, and currency. The region is also the birthplace of Zoroastrianism and new ways of thinking and art.  
The rise of the Achaemenid Empire is one of the most influential periods in world history. With Cyrus the Great and Darius I, the empire rose to unrivaled heights, gathering vast wealth and territories. Learn how this great empire declined and the role Alexander the Great played in it. 
This book offers an enthralling insight into the exciting and often bloody history of ancient Persia and the Persian Empire.  
In this audio book, you will discover the following: How the Assyrian Empire gave rise to the Medians and then the Achaemenid dynastyThe establishment of the Persian Empire by Cyrus the Great and his many expeditions, which helped build the greatest empire of its timeThe period of Achaemenid rule over Persia, stretching from Cambyses II to Darius III The Achaemenid takeover of Lydia, Egypt, the Indus Valley, Babylonia, and Asia MinorAchaemenid conflicts with Greece, which ultimately led to the empire’s downfall at the hands of Alexander the Great

    Cause & Effect: Motley Crue

    Chris Akin, rock critic and co-host of the often controversial Classic Metal Show, takes listeners on an exploration of Motley Crue’s 1994 self-titled album. Armed with new vocalist John Corabi, it was a sound that, from start to finish, sounded nothing at all like anything they had done previously. 
Immediately, it was polarizing. Most of the fan base absolutely hated it. They didn’t buy it, and further didn’t support the band to the point where the label themselves made the decision to stop pushing money into it. That said though, many fans felt completely different, Akin among them. He takes a look back at both his personal experiences as well as the perception of this polarizing release on the world. This audiobook also includes nearly an hour of bonus audio extras.
