La creciente complejidad del contexto global en lo referido a lo economico y social, las presiones que sobre las empresas ejercen cada vez mas consumidores, sectores ambientalistas y organizaciones no gubernamentales, y el clamor por una mayor transparencia en la forma de hacer negocios plantean al empresariado nuevos desafios. En los ultimos tiempos, la problematica de la responsabilidad social ha ido ganando un lugar cada vez mas destacado en la agenda de las sociedades modernas y de las propias organizaciones. El escenario economico global del momento actual requiere de instituciones transparentes y con real sentido de la responsabilizacion (accountability) para enfrentar los comportamientos oportunistas del mercado, evitando de esta forma muchas de las consecuencias indeseables que puedan generarse. En el presente libro, se efectua una sintesis del alcance y las limitaciones de estas iniciativas y del enfoque de la responsabilidad social empresaria, planteando alternativas para su operativizacion resignificandola en terminos de responsabilidad ciudadana y planteando modelos para el aumento de la competitividad corporativa."

En el presente trabajo se describen los estudios quimicos y farmacologicos realizados en torno a Justicia spicigera, conocida como "Muitle" dentro de la medicina tradicional de Mexico, en donde es recomendada para tratar la disenteria, las infecciones de la piel y los rinones, asi como para tratar la anemia. Los estudios incluyeron pruebas de eficacia y seguridad, asi como el analisis quimico de sus extractos y de la infusion."

In a two sectors dynamic model we analyze the process of tourism development based on the accumulation of capital (building of tourism facilities) and the reallocation of land from traditional activities to the tourism sector. The model incorporates the conflict between occupation of the territory by the tourism facilities, other productive activities and availability of cultural, natural and environmental assets that are valued by residents and visitors. We characterize the process of tourism development in two settings: the socially optimal solution and a situation where the costs of tourism expansion are external to the decision makers, where externalities on residents as well as intraindustry externalities are considered. Regarding the optimal solution, we show that it is optimal to limit tourism expansion before it reaches its maximum capacity even in a context where the economic attractiveness of tourism relative to other productive sectors rise continuously. However, in this context and when all the costs of tourism development are externalities the only limit to tourism quantitative expansion is its maximum capacity determined by the availability of land. Finally, we show that excessive environmental degradation from the future generations' point of view is not a problem of discounting the future but rather a problem of externalities that affects negatively the current and future generations.

In this paper, we examine how the number of African American and White American coaches in college basketball evolved since 1947. Particularly, we focus on 1973 when the league split up. The separation created asymmetric regulatory requirements. This led to a significant difference in the number of African American coaches. The evidence suggests that less regulated institutions employ fewer African American coaches. The results are time consistent, not clustered geographically, and unrelated to specific institutions. Our results have policy implications for college sports as well as other industries which have similar working conditions.

The investigation of unsteady aerodynamics is becoming a more attractive topic of research in enhancing flight capabilities. Natural flyers such as birds and insects can undergo flight maneuvers that are very difficult or not possible with current aerodynamic understanding. Modeling the unsteady phenomena produced by flapping wings is important to the understanding of these maneuvers, with possible applications to aircraft flight. We investigate reduced-order modeling of the unsteady aerodynamics generated by flapping wings using the two separate approaches of rotational lift and dynamic stall. A low order quasi steady model based on rotational lift and a revised version incorporating dynamic stall are presented. Both concepts are analyzed using simulated results, with experimental data measured with matching kinematics as a basis of comparison. This combined model is then used to conduct parametric studies of the time averaged aerodynamic forces over varying kinematic variables.

This Book is a perfect guide for you to get started with the natural treatments of the infections. Infections are normal which attack the human body or any other living beings such as pets. You can treat them yourself rather than pay a visit to the doctor. Doctors will never guide you towards the natural treatment for a minor cold but will give you the medicines for it because they are meant to do that to make the healing process faster. Well, here are some of the chapters which you can relate to heal yourself if you are ever attacked from the infections. You can also heal your pet with the natural antibiotics which you never thought of! Antibiotics and Antivirals for Viral Infections Antibiotics for Headache and Body Pain Antibiotics for Sugar Patients Antibiotics for Your Beloved Pets Antivirals for Acne and Skin Problems These chapters will help you learn a lot from all the aspects, and you will know how little things can help you in getting better and staying healthy. The normal ingredients which you use in your food have a positive effect on your health without you knowing about it.

Descripción del editor: "En 1969 se crearon los Premios Nobel de Economía. ¿Sabrías citar el nombre de alguno de los galardonados?Si lo primero que te viene a la cabeza es pensar en Adam Smith o en John Maynard Keynes, necesitas este libro. Con motivo del 50 aniversario del nacimiento del certamen, el Dr. Gómez Borrero combina en este libro dos de sus pasiones: la economía y la docencia, consiguiendo, gracias a su gran capacidad de comunicación y al enorme trabajo de documentación, presentarnos de forma concisa y clara, un perfil de cada uno de los 81 laureados en el que nos expone datos biográficos y la aportación a la economía por la que mereció el reconocimiento.A través de las páginas de este libro recorremos vidas tan fascinantes como la de John Nash, a quien popularizó Russel Crowe en Una Mente Maravillosa; Paul Samuelson, de quien se dice que hacía escrito casi de todo pero lo había leído todo; Daniel Kahneman, el primer psicólogo en recibir un Premio Nobel en Economía, o Myron Scholes, de quien no es posible pensar sin acordarnos de las fórmulas de valoración de opciones. Tras leer el libro sorprende descubrir cómo muchos de los premiados con el Nobel de Economía, no son economistas, sino historiadores o incluso psicólogos.Siguiendo una estructura cronológica que comienza en 1969 y termina en el año 2018, el Dr. Gómez Borrero combina en este libro su pasión por la docencia y la divulgación científica, su experiencia profesional en la economía y las finanzas y su tremenda capacidad para comunicar.Hay una razón por la que, décadas después, los alumnos del Dr Gómez Borrero siguen recordando las clases de su maestro, y se ve reflejada en cada una de las páginas de este libro. La capacidad del Profesor Gómez Borrero para presentar ideas y comunicar lo esencial de cada uno de los premiados está reflejada en cada página del libro.Una corona de laurel naranja. Un libro de gran valor científico y de imprescindible lectura para cualquier economista o mente inquieta." (FNAC).
