Este libro tiene por objetivo presentar propuestas de política de desarrollo, cohesión social e inserción internacional conjunta que permitan la reactivación de la integración multidimensional latinoamericana, desde estudios de regionalismo comparado de experiencias de Europa, de Asia, de África y de América Latina. Propuestas que permiten avanzar hacia nuevas actividades prioritarias en la integración regional latinoamericana, mediante políticas: 1) de desarrollo y cohesión social, a través del establecimiento de agendas dentro de los procesos de integración atinoamericanos que permitan la reorientación del modelo económico hacia la sostenibilidad, así como la protección de la población ante el riesgo de nuevas pandemias, y 2) de inserción internacional conjunta de América Latina en el sistema internacional, a través de la consideración de propuestas para mejorar la posición latinoamericana en los mercados mundiales de bienes y servicios, incrementar la eficiencia del multilateralismo y la gobernanza mundial, así como lograr una acción regional común que permita aprovechar el interregionalismo con procesos de integración y países de Asia, África y Europa. De esta forma, se pretende impulsar los acuerdos de integración latinoamericanos hacia una nueva configuración de las dinámicas de desarrollo e inserción internacional, mediante acciones desarrollables en el mediano plazo que promueven una mayor interacción entre actores, públicos y privados, previo a la toma de decisiones.

Salir del estancamiento y la disgregación en que se encuentra la integración de América Latina supone una voluntad política, real y efectiva, de los Gobiernos, fruto de una acción concertada entre estos, organismos internacionales, instituciones responsables del proceso de integración y los diferentes actores interesados en el proceso, dentro de los cuales se encuentran la sociedad civil y la academia, este último actor fundamental. Para ello, es necesario reiterar no solo la pertinencia y validez de la integración, sino también la conveniencia de establecer las medidas necesarias para avanzar, de manera gradual, pero sostenida, en la convergencia de la integración latinoamericana. En este libro se plantea la pertinencia y la convergencia de la integración en América Latina: pertinencia, en el sentido de la eficiencia, la viabilidad, la realización, el impacto y los resultados de un proyecto, y convergencia, como la confluencia o concurrencia, resultado de actos o acciones de converger. Por consiguiente, esta reflexión sobre la convergencia de la integración latinoamericana parte de la aceptación de superar grandes asimetrías integrando diversidades manifiestas. En este sentido, los autores dan respuestas que contemplan la necesidad de reforzar las instituciones para recuperar la gobernabilidad en los países y en los procesos de integración, así como el desarrollo de una gobernanza multinivel en la que se logre mayor participación de la sociedad civil, con un particular trabajo en la armonización de políticas económicas y medidas orientadas a lograr mayor cohesión social que faciliten una distribución más equitativa de los beneficios de la integración. Teniendo en cuenta que esto no es realizable de manera inmediata, plantean una agenda a corto, mediano y largo plazo, sobre la cual los distintos actores trabajen de manera conjunta para ahondar y desarrollar lo más pertinente de la integración latinoamericana.

Today we are witnessing an increased use of data visualization in society. Across domains such as work, education and the news, various forms of graphs, charts and maps are used to explain, convince and tell stories. In an era in which more and more data are produced and circulated digitally, and digital tools make visualization production increasingly accessible, it is important to study the conditions under which such visual texts are generated, disseminated and thought to be of societal benefit. This book is a contribution to the multi-disciplined and multi-faceted conversation concerning the forms, uses and roles of data visualization in society. Do data visualizations do 'good' or 'bad'? Do they promote understanding and engagement, or do they do ideological work, privileging certain views of the world over others? The contributions in the book engage with these core questions from a range of disciplinary perspectives.

A leading data visualization expert explores the negative—and positive—influences that charts have on our perception of truth. We’ve all heard that a picture is worth a thousand words, but what if we don’t understand what we’re looking at? Social media has made charts, infographics, and diagrams ubiquitous—and easier to share than ever. We associate charts with science and reason; the flashy visuals are both appealing and persuasive. Pie charts, maps, bar and line graphs, and scatter plots (to name a few) can better inform us, revealing patterns and trends hidden behind the numbers we encounter in our lives. In short, good charts make us smarter—if we know how to read them. However, they can also lead us astray. Charts lie in a variety of ways—displaying incomplete or inaccurate data, suggesting misleading patterns, and concealing uncertainty—or are frequently misunderstood, such as the confusing cone of uncertainty maps shown on TV every hurricane season. To make matters worse, many of us are ill-equipped to interpret the visuals that politicians, journalists, advertisers, and even our employers present each day, enabling bad actors to easily manipulate them to promote their own agendas. In How Charts Lie, data visualization expert Alberto Cairo teaches us to not only spot the lies in deceptive visuals, but also to take advantage of good ones to understand complex stories. Public conversations are increasingly propelled by numbers, and to make sense of them we must be able to decode and use visual information. By examining contemporary examples ranging from election-result infographics to global GDP maps and box-office record charts, How Charts Lie demystifies an essential new literacy, one that will make us better equipped to navigate our data-driven world.

The North American Mosaic has four overarching features. First, it is, to the extent feasible, based on comparable information on the status and trends of major indicators of the state of the environment in Canada,Mexico, and the United States. Second, the report confirms that these three countries together make up an incredibly complex, dynamic, and interconnected ecosystem in which humans play a dominant and decisive role. Third, the report raises important and sometimes disquieting questions concerning the sustainability of some current trends. Finally, the report is a reminder that our economic, social, and physical well-being are utterly dependent on the life-sustaining services provided by nature. This report emphasizes the importance of developing mutually compatible economic, social, and environmental goals and policies across the three-country region.
