2015

2021

The prevention strategies used by tennis coaches when delivering tennis lessons during the COVID-19 pandemic were analyzed in this study.

2018

Although the cohesion of business elites has been associated with income concentration, few studies have in-depth investigated the role of business elite networks in macro-social issues such as economic inequality.

The COVID-19 pandemic has gravely impacted Latin America.

Las identidades de la crónica. Hibridez, polisemia y ecos históricos en un género entre la literatura y el periodismo

2017

28 Páginas Como todos los conceptos de frontera, el de crónica no resulta precisamente cristalino, en particular a la hora de encontrar una definición que despierte consenso o adquiera una cierta universalidad. Tratar de definir sus contornos constituye el objetivo de este artículo, que plantea un recorrido histórico para tratar de entender los diferentes matices que encierra. Bajo el paraguas de un término entre la literatura y el periodismo, híbrido y polisémico como crónica, se identifican tres tipos producciones. El análisis de las variedades periodísticas permite reconocer, en primer lugar, una modalidad ligada a la actualidad, de carácter más breve; en segundo lugar, producciones de l…

Is there a latin american child migration law? An analysis of the ‘Advisory Opinion n. 21 on the rights of child migrants’ rendered by the Inter-Amer…

2019

In 2014, in response to the request of the Southern Cone countries, the Inter-American Court of Human Rights issued an Advisory Opinion on the rights of migrant children in an attempt to emphasize the minimum guarantees that the countries of the region should grant to this category of migrant, especially considering their hypervulnerability when compared to adult migrants. Such request, made in the light of the growing migratory flow of unaccompanied minors in the Americas, has led the Court to point to a number of rights that should be particularly guaranteed, such as the right to seek and receive asylum, non-criminalization, non-detention, and non-return of minors, culminating in the desi…

Integrating soil survey, land use management and political ecology: A case study in a border area between Peru and Ecuador

2013

In Latin America countries, competition for access to natural resources among different groups has been a major reason for the outburst of violence over the last decades. One of the main aims of the political ecology concerns the understanding of the environmental conditions that can underlies the social conflict among people. Such understanding needs to be based on a detailed investigation of the natural resources of the landscape, mainly the soils. Few years ago the Italian Ministry for Foreign Affairs financed a soil survey with a humanitarian purpose: the development of a peace plan between Peru and Ecuador by improving the socio-economic conditions of the rural populations living in th…
