    Content: Family businesses are everywhere, but there is little information regarding their growth and development. This book is one of the few to analyses the identity and evolution of the largest family businesses in Latin America and Spain. With contributions from 20 scholars from 12 different countries, the book compares the relationship of families in business within their national economies, foreign capital, migration, and politics. The authors deny the existence of a 'Latin type' of family capitalism in their countries, and highlight diversity, and national and regional differences. This interdisciplinary book will be useful for students and scholars of economics, management, history, sociology, and anthropology. Politicians, family business consultants, family businesses, and international institutions will also benefit from insights within this book.

    Content: This book explores how academia seeks to systematize the changes taking place in radio in its adaptation to the digital era. The individual chapters here investigate the most important issues currently under study by researchers in the medium of radio, tackling such key questions as the future of the radio spectrum, the new commercial radio business models, the function of community radio stations, and the development of university radio stations, amongst others.As such, this volume is integral to an understanding of the compound dimensions of the sound and radio media research currently being carried out in countries as varied as the United Kingdom, Spain, Poland, Finland, Portugal, Brazil and Argentina

    Content: AUTHOR-SUPPLIED ABSTRACT: Abstract “Circulation is architecture” were Le Corbusier’s words to express the modernist sought awareness and acknowledgement of movement through and around the built environment (Le Corbusier 1930, 62). Only recently appropriated as a physiological metaphor to appease the late 19th century’s urge to bring scientific method into architecture, it is now the fundamental design component that embodies the flow of people through space. Though this notion represents a direct juxtaposition to the architectural firm immobility, its organisation and accomplishment relies on the physical attributes that designers stipulate, hence, creating a synergetic interdependence between the intangible qualities of movement and the static physical form of the built surroundings. However, by recognizing ‘circulation’ as an active function of a project’s spatial programming against the implied rest of other defined activities, such as sleeping or eating, simultaneously opposes the previous statement and results in a design disconnection as circulation spaces are then treated as isolated components. Moreover, the functionalist way of thinking that accompanied architectural modernism advocated building spatial and economic efficiency that, in turn, further resulted in the reduction of the non-prioritised circulation areas as well as the neglect for their spatial experience. In response to this issue, this thesis will first study the origins and current regulations of circulation in the built environment through Adrian Forty and Christian Schittich’s words to then introduce Le Corbusier’s philosophy and considerations for the users’ perception of transition spaces. Continuously, a series of case studies together with this thesis’ supporting project will present exemplary design decisions that introduce opportunities for social encounters within circulation’s implicit thresholds as a means to attend today’s social demands in a global post-pandemic setting, bridge the current divide between movement and rest and, finally, regain designers’ attention for user spatial perception and experience. Keywords: architecture, circulation, Le Corbusier, modernism, spatial programming, design decisions, spatial experience, social encounters, post-pandemic setting, user perception.

    Content: The identity of places of worship is one of the most difficult problems faced by religious architecture at the start of this new millennium. Contemporary globalising experiences demand, peremptorily, a reflection, both conceptual and situational, on the origin of objects, people and institutions. Nevertheless, the chance of these migration flows annihilating already-existing religious identities is perceived as a problem. This problem is directly linked to the survival of architecture as a s.

    Content: Since the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, scenes of brutality and torture have appeared in mainstream comedies, dramatic narratives, and action films, for little other reason than to titillate and delight. In these films, torture is devoid of any redeeming qualities. It is represented as an exercise in brutal senselessness carried out by authoritarian regimes and institutions. Before 9/11, films outside of the horror/slasher genre that addressed torture depicted the practice in a variety of forms. In most cases, torture was cast as the act of a desperate and often depraved individual, and the viewer was more likely to identify with the victim rather than the torturer. This volume follows the significant shift in the representation of torture over the past decade, specifically in documentary, action, and political films, and it compares the development of this trend in films from the United States, Europe, China, Latin America, South Africa, and the Middle East. Featuring essays by sociologists, psychologists, historians, journalists, and specialists in film and cultural studies, this collection addresses the representation of torture in film and television from multiple angles and disciplines, connecting its aesthetics and practices to the dynamic of state terror and political domination
