Employment, Unemployment, And Underemployment In Latin America, Peter Gregory

Research Papers

In 1973, the Inter-American Economic and Social Council issued a report that identified a pressing problem facing the countries of the hemisphere in the following terms: "Of the many socioeconomic maladjustments at present faced by Latin American countries, a critical one is the gap between opportunities for gainful employment and the size of the working-age population. The great importance ascribed to this problem lies in its very extent, the prevailing trends toward its worsening in almost the entire region, on its disastrous consequences for the welfare of a large proportion of the population, and on the decisive role it will …

A Process Of Self-Assessment And Goal Setting For A Latin American Local Congregation As A Possible Means To Create The Necessary Conditions For Church Renewal, Fruitful Evangelism, And Effective Nurture, Ruben Pereyra

Doctor of Ministry Projects

Problem

Dropouts from church membership have increased during the 1960s among Christian denominations. Abundant literature has been circulating analyzing possible causes and suggesting remedies. The. picture is not yet clear. Meanwhile, several types of solutions have been proposed and tried with different degrees of success or failure. As the issue is also a concern among Seventh-day Adventists, a program considering the particular situation of this denomination, in a Latin-American setting, is presented. One way to a renewal experience that would help confirm members and thus prevent dropouts is suggested.

Method

As a first step, a review of the current literature …

Historical Perspectives And New Directions In The Exploitation Of Latin American Petroleum Resources, Henry B. Steele Jan 1976

Historical Perspectives And New Directions In The Exploitation Of Latin American Petroleum Resources, Henry B. Steele

Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law

This paper constitutes an attempt, in a very brief compass, to provide an historical survey of the traditional roles of government and private enterprise in the exploitation of Latin American petroleum resources, to evaluate the current situation, and to speculate in a limited manner on the future implications of present developments. The basic analytical frame of reference is that of economics, but since the petroleum industry is a world industry, developments in the Latin American petroleum industry must be placed in the wider context of world oil industry economics and politics. From the standpoint of economic analysis, the major conflict …

Latin America: A Petroleum Profile, Ewell E. Murphy, Jr.

Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law

Argentina--Mixed. Under present legislation (Hydrocarbons Law 17,319 of June 23, 1967) specified geographical areas are reserved to state enterprises and the remainder of the country is, in principle, open to private enterprise under a system of exploration permits and exploitation concessions. No permits or concessions have been granted to private enterprise for some time, however. There are pending legislative amendments which would reestablish the monopoly of Y.P.F. over all phases of the oil industry but permit private enterprise to operate under work or service contracts with Y.P.F.

Oil Operations In Latin America: The Future Of Private Enterprise, Ewell E. Murphy, Jr.

Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law

We live in tumultuous times. Whether measured on a scale of millennia, of centuries, or of generations, our lifetime's segment of the graph of world history is marking giddy ascents, harrowing declines, and abrupt, unbridgeable discontinuities.

On a millennial scale we are entering the twilight of those five astounding centuries of Western leadership that began with the Renaissance. The flags of empire, long banished from the Americas, have now been struck in Asia and Africa as well, and flutter quaintly over only a dwindling handful of enclaves and outposts. Islam has awakened from her sleep of seven hundred years and …

Human Rights And Non-Intervention In The Inter-American System, José A. Cabranes Jan 1967

Human Rights And Non-Intervention In The Inter-American System, José A. Cabranes

Michigan Law Review

The long silence of the inter-American system is remarkable when contrasted with the continuing efforts of the United Nations to elaborate an International Bill of Rights and the significant accomplishments of the Council of Europe in implementing on a regional basis the principal values enunciated in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. The OAS' lack of interest, until quite recently, in undertaking a similar international program to protect human rights in the American republics is a function of several very special factors, the most important of which is the traditional Latin American repudiation of intervention, in whatever form and for …
