The reality of Central American migrations is broad, diverse, multidirectional, and uncertain. It also offers hope, resistance, affection, solidarity, and a sense of community for a region that has one of the highest rates of human displacement in the world. Central American Migrations in the Twenty-First Century tackles head-on the way Central America has been portrayed as a region profoundly marked by the migration of its people. Through an intersectional approach, this volume demonstrates how the migration experience is complex and affected by gender, age, language, ethnicity, social class, migratory status, and other variables. Contributors carefully examine a broad range of topics, including forced migration, deportation and outsourcing, intraregional displacements, the role of social media, and the representations of human mobility in performance, film, and literature. The volume establishes a productive dialogue between humanities and social sciences scholars, and it paves the way for fruitful future discussions on the region’s complex migratory processes.

Hydrological variability, increasing competition for water, and the need for regulatory flexibility may increasingly compel governments to adopt measures with significant economic impact on foreign investment. In International Investment Law and Water Resources Management, Daza-Clark offers an appraisal of indirect expropriation, revisiting the well-known doctrine of the police power.

Salmo 85 Tú eres mi Dios, piedad de mí, Señor, que a ti te estoy llamando todo el día; alegra el alma de tu siervo, pues levanto mi alma hacia ti. Porque tú, Señor, eres bueno y clemente, rico en misericordia con los que te invocan. Señor, escucha mi oración, atiende a la voz de mi súplica. Te alabaré de todo corazón, Dios mío; daré gloria a tu nombre por siempre, por tu grande piedad para conmigo, porque me salvaste del abismo profundo. Señor, Dios clemente y misericordioso, lento a la cólera, rico en piedad y leal, mírame, ten compasión de mí. Salmo 85, 3-5. 12-13.15
