Campos de muerte. Geografía del mal no pretende ser un inventario de la crueldad, sino un fogonazo de la profunda vileza que caracteriza a nuestra especie. En sus páginas se desentraña la implacable evidencia de la sangre y las lágrimas derramadas por millones de deportados, víctimas del hambre, el agotamiento, las enfermedades o, simplemente, el asesinato. Campos de exterminio, torturas, experimentos médicos aberrantes, mano de obra esclava, inhumanas condiciones de vida. Crímenes como los del Holocausto, los cometidos por el régimen estalinista o los del Jémer Rojo, junto con las...

Cuando las naves europeas tomaron contacto, en el siglo XV, con lo que luego se llamaría América, el continente era un hervidero de etnias y culturas, algunas de ellas muy sofisticadas desde el punto de vista social.

Este libro pretende valorar dicho proceso evolutivo y contemplar las...

Today, Siena can appear on the surface standoffish, a bit static, and very old-fashioned, especially when compared to its larger, flashier cousins Roma and Firenze. But first impressions wear away as we learn from Tylus that...

El objeto central de la tesis discurre por las múltiples caras del delito y la violencia que coexisten a lo largo del siglo XIX, entre la crisis del Antiguo Régimen y la dificultad de implantación del sistema liberal español. Un proceso jalonado por rupturas decisivas en el ordenamiento jurídico, que pasa de la pluralidad jurisdiccional y estamental del absolutismo a la uniformidad y codificación de tipo moderno, así como por la continuidad e inercia en los usos y costumbres institucionales, que permiten observar los cambios y las persistencias en todos los aspectos relacionados con la ...
