This book examines the art markets of the Global South while questioning, based on the heterogeneity of the selected contributions, the very idea of its existence in the context of the global art market. Gathering new research by recognized scholars, you will discover different markets from the so-called Global South, their structure, the external determinants affecting their behavior, their role in the art system’s development, and how they articulate with other agents at the local, regional, and international level. In this publication, an important wealth of research on various African countries stands out, providing an unprecedented overview of the markets in that region. This volume originates from the TIAMSA conference The Art Market and the Global South: New Perspectives and Plural Approaches, held in Lisbon in 2019.

Trabajar durante veinte o treinta años y disfrutar de todo ese esfuerzo luego de la jubilación ya no parece una opción atractiva. Tito Loizeau, reconocido emprendedor argentino, propone en Emprender hasta los 90 una novedosa alternativa: organizar la vida laboral para intercalar momentos de placer mientras seguimos con la rutina y las obligaciones. Trabajar durante veinte o treinta años para disfrutar de todo ese esfuerzo luego de la jubilación ya no parece resultar una opción atractiva. Tito Loizeau, reconocido emprendedor argentino, presenta una novedosa alternativa: organizar la vida laboral de manera tal que podamos intercalar momentos de placer mientras seguimos con la rutina y las obligaciones. ¿Cómo lograrlo? "Mi propuesta es mostrarles otro camino posible. Un camino de equilibrio en el que la invitación es seguir trabajando toda la vida, pero, a cambio, disfrutar de tiempo con amigos, familia y con uno mismo. No dejar para el retiro los momentos de disfrute", dice el autor. Volcando su propia experiencia, con didáctica y claridad, Loizeau desarrolla "seis ingredientes" que integran la fórmula para alcanzar este nuevo paradigma que nos ayudará a vivir el trabajo y mirar hacia el futuro de otra manera. En definitiva, Emprender hasta los 90 es una verdadera oportunidad para cambiar en serio. Tito Loizeau, emprendedor desde los 22 años cuando realizó su primer emprendimiento, cuenta con una gran experiencia: fundó una cadena de cines en el interior del país y una fábrica de sillones, con las que fracasó. Creó Promored, que arrancó como portal de cupones de descuento y se convirtió en una agencia de marketing digital con presencia en quince países y más de cinco mil promociones para marcas como Pepsico, Unilever, Nestlé, Mondelez/Kraft Foods, LG y Philips, entre otras. En 2007 abrió el primer Barbie Store del mundo y en 2011 fundó CienPies, empresa de desarrollo de contenidos infantiles, productores de ZTV para Telefé y socia de la producción de Bubba y sus amigos, que se emite en Disney Junior y en Netflix. En 2015 creó Caramba!, agencia de marketing promocional. Fue seleccionado emprendedor Endeavor en el año 2000, y actualmente es miembro de dicha fundación. Desde el 2011 es vicepresidente de la Fundación Discar, ONG dedicada a la inclusión social y laboral de jóvenes con discapacidad mental.

Genre: Political Science
ISBN: 3030334635

This book is one of the main outcomes of the projects “Development Programmes and Rural Change in the European Union: governance, results and lessons to share”and “Successes and failures in the practice of neoendogenous rural development in the European Union (1991-2013)”, funded both of them by the Spanish Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness. This publication aims, on one side, to clarify and deepen the knowledge of the social, economic and territorial effects of the LEADER approach, and, on the other, to analyze the importante of the participation of several stakeholders (young people and women) as well as some traditional activities –agriculture- or modern ones (tourism) linked all of them to the rich cultural and natural heritage of these areas. It also provides an in-depth study of the causes that lead to the generation of successful projects in the practice of neoendogenous rural development and also explores the reasons that cause certain projects to fail in the path towards LEADER support so that they are finally not implemented. In addition, it is shown the problems, results and best practices that cause the neoendogenous rural development in different areas inside of the European Union: Austria, Finland, France, Germany, Italy, Spain and United Kingdom. Thereby it helps to improve the decision-making in rural development, both on a local and regional scale. The multidisciplinary and international character of the authors, as well as the specificity of the research trajectory of each of them, in the analysis of rural development, enriches the publication and facilitates the different and critical reflections on the contributions, errors and meaning of the neoendogenous local development. Researchers in this discipline and technicians working in the practice of rural development along the European Union are the main audience of the book.
