Cementerio Municipal de Bilbao, 19 de noviembre de 1936. El pelotón de ejecución apunta a Wilhelm Wakonigg , el empresario que había sido cónsul honorífico de Austria y Hungría en la capital vizcaína durante la Primera Guerra Mundial. En los inicios de la Guerra Civil, Wakonigg había protagonizado el más famoso caso de espionaje que se ha producido en el territorio controlado por el Gobierno Vasco. El historiador José Luis de la Granja afirma: “El juicio del Tribunal Popular que tuvo mayor resonancia, por afectar a dos diplomáticos extranjeros, fue el llamado ‘caso Wakonigg’, que sirve de muestra para valorar la justicia ejercida por dicho tribunal”. Este libro reconstruye por primera vez con rigor este histórico caso de espionaje, siempre a partir de documentos de la época que se hallan dispersos en archivos vascos, españoles, alemanes y austríacos. El autor, con un pulso narrativo nítidamente periodístico, relata también cómo se creó cierta imagen de Wakonigg después de su fusilamiento a causa de las versiones ofrecidas por el periodista británico George L. Steer y el Gobierno de Euzkadi. En la obra queda, asimismo, detallada constancia de la...

Solving nonlinear equations in Banach spaces (real or complex nonlinear equations, nonlinear systems, and nonlinear matrix equations, among others), is a non-trivial task that involves many areas of science and technology. Usually the solution is not directly affordable and require an approach using iterative algorithms. This Special Issue focuses mainly on the design, analysis of convergence, and stability of new schemes for solving nonlinear problems and their application to practical problems. Included papers study the following topics: Methods for finding simple or multiple roots either with or without derivatives, iterative methods for approximating different generalized inverses, real or complex dynamics associated to the rational functions resulting from the application of an iterative method on a polynomial. Additionally, the analysis of the convergence has been carried out by means of different sufficient conditions assuring the local, semilocal, or global convergence. This Special issue has allowed us to present the latest research results in the area of iterative processes for solving nonlinear equations as well as systems and matrix equations. In addition to the...
¿Por qué no se cumplen los derechos humanos incluso allí donde están reconocidos jurídicamente? ¿Cómo podemos favorecer su implantación en las conciencias y las vidas de la gente? Las respuestas no son sencillas porque las propias realidades en las que se trata de instaurar los derechos humanos tampoco lo son. El problema que entrañan tales derechos fundamentales sólo podrá ser resuelto mediante el conocimiento de las causas y los procesos que en cada situación inducen a determinadas personas, grupos o instituciones a vulnerar o promover esos derechos. Por otra parte, las condiciones sociales que favorecen los actuales retrocesos y avances en materia de derechos humanos en el mundo incluyen una importantísima dimensión subjetiva, es decir, psicológica o psicosocial, cuyo análisis puede resultar esclarecedor para quienes se ocupan o preocupan de estas cuestiones. Preparado por expertos investigadores provenientes de la Psicología, este libro abarca temas como los de la cultura y los valores morales, los derechos violentados de mujeres, menores y grupos étnicos, la violencia política, los efectos de la represión política, los movimientos sociales y su influencia ...
In The Reckoning, award-winning historian Jacob Soll shows how the use and misuse of financial bookkeeping has determined the fates of entire societies. Time and again, Soll reveals, good and honest accounting has been a tool to build successful companies, states and empires. Yet when it is neglected or falls into the wrong hands, accounting has contributed to cycles of destruction that continue to this day. Combining rigorous scholarship and fresh storytelling, The Reckoning traces the surprisingly powerful influence of accounting on financial and political stability, from the powerful Medici bank in 14th century Italy to the 2008 financial crisis.
Operetta developed in the second half of the 19th century from the French opéra-comique and the more lighthearted German Singspiel. As the century progressed, the serious concerns of mainstream opera were sustained and intensified, leaving a gap between opéra-comique and vaudeville that necessitated a new type of stage work. Jacques Offenbach, son of a Cologne synagogue cantor, established himself in Paris with his series of opéras-bouffes. The popular success of this individual new form of entertainment light, humorous, satirical and also sentimental led to the emergence of operetta as a separate genre, an art form with its own special flavour and concerns, and no longer simply a "little opera". Attempts to emulate Offenbach's success in France and abroad generated other national schools of operetta and helped to establish the genre internationally, in Spain, in England, and especially in Austria Hungary. Here it inspired works by Franz von Suppé and Johann Strauss II (the Golden Age), and later Franz Lehár and Emmerich Kálmán (the Silver Age). Viennese operetta flourished conterminously with the Habsburg Empire and the mystique of Vienna, but, after the First World War,...
The book consists mainly of two parts: Chapter 1 - Chapter 7 and Chapter 8 - Chapter 14. Chapter 1 and Chapter 2 treat design techniques based on linearization of nonlinear systems. An analysis of nonlinear system over quantum mechanics is discussed in Chapter 3.

Esta novela es un viaje al pasado que inicia Álvaro Montes, «Samurai», un periodista argentino que lleva más de tres décadas residiendo en Madrid y que regresa a Buenos Aires en busca del amor extraviado, una identidad perdida y una patria que, hoy como ayer, pende de un hilo. Por propia iniciativa, a principios de los años setenta Samurai empuja a un grupo de amigos a fundar la Orden del Tigre, una suma de voluntades e intenciones que, con el paso del tiempo, irá condicionando la peripecia de todos los personajes, sujetos a los infortunios del amor y la política, que se ligan para formar la trama de sus vidas. Buenos Aires «es Madrid, Roma, Barcelona, Londres y París en un mismo momento esplendoroso» y las elecciones que marcan definitivamente una vida parecen ser tomadas por hombres y mujeres cuyos mapas emocionales varían de un momento a otro junto a la ciudad. J. J. Armas Marcelodespliega toda su capacidad narrativa para mover a estos personajes y poner ante el lector una parábola del sentido de la vida bajo el influjo de la historia argentina reciente. Una historia que, a partir de esta novela, Armas Marcelo nos hace sentir más cercana que nunca.
De Pablo Escobar, el famoso narcotraficante colombiano, hemos oído hablar miles de veces por su infinita capacidad para ejercer el mal, que llevó a organismos como la DEA a calificarlo como uno de los más grandes criminales de la historia. Sin embargo, poco se habla de sus orígenes familiares y sociales, de sus dimensiones humanas y de la manera como su personalidad fue evolucionando hasta llegar al desbordamiento. Alonso Salazar J. se sumergió en archivos y buscó testimonios inéditos de familiares y vecinos, de amigos y enemigos, para entrelazar en un intenso relato, sin maniqueísmo, versiones diversas y contradictorias que al final construyen un retrato más completo del personaje. Así, a lo largo de esta historia, Escobar aparece a veces como un guerrero que despertó la admiración de sectores excluidos que lo consideraron un héroe, y otras, como un villano que hizo de la muerte un negocio, y luego la amplió, con el terror indiscriminado, para someter al Estado y a la sociedad. Aquí se presentan dimensiones íntimas, cuadros complejos y humanos, de un hombre que buscaba desesperadamente identidad y reconocimiento, y que amó a su esposa y a sus hijos hasta perder...

This book focuses on the approximation of nonlinear equations using iterative methods. Nine contributions are presented on the construction and analysis of these methods, the coverage encompassing convergence, efficiency, robustness, dynamics, and applications. Many problems are stated in the form of nonlinear equations, using mathematical modeling. In particular, a wide range of problems in Applied Mathematics and in Engineering can be solved by finding the solutions to these equations. The book reveals the importance of studying convergence aspects in iterative methods and shows that selection of the most efficient and robust iterative method for a given problem is crucial to guaranteeing a good approximation. A number of sample criteria for selecting the optimal method are presented, including those regarding the order of convergence, the computational cost, and the stability, including the dynamics. This book will appeal to researchers whose field of interest is related to nonlinear problems and equations, and their approximation.

Critical Perspectives on Caribbean Literature and Culture is a collection of a dozen essays by Caribbean scholars living in the Caribbean and around the world. Each of the three sections of the book explores the Caribbean as a diasporic space through the lenses of literary and cultural systems. “Negotiating Borders: Women, Sexuality, and Identity” examines the creolized identities of Caribbean societies, gender roles of women, impact of sexual tourism, and censorship of Latino gays and lesbians. The essayists in this section note that much work still needs to be done in academia to give voice to repressed Caribbean populations. “Creating Spaces of Caribbean Artistic Expression: Multiple Representations” focuses on how music, identity, art, and language depict the diversity of the Caribbean experience. In this section, the essayists examine how the process of creation extends to new cultural expressions. “Deconstructing the Diaspora: Caribbean Writers as Political Activists” takes into account the tension between oppressor and oppressed, a pressing issue for many Caribbean authors, and focuses on the role of writers in reconstructing Caribbean culture, politics, and...
