Killing Democracy's Promise: A Massacre of People and Expectations --Conclusion: Revolutionary Projects --APPENDIX --NOTES --BIBLIOGRAPHY --INDEXBeginning in the late 1950's political leaders in Venezuela built what they celebrated as Latin America's most stable democracy. But outside the staid halls of power, in the gritty barrios of a rapidly urbanizing country, another politics was rising-unruly, contentious, and clamoring for inclusion. Based on years of archival and ethnographic research in Venezuela's largest public housing community, Barrio Rising delivers the first in-depth history of urban popular politics before the Bolivarian Revolution, providing crucial context for understanding the democracy that emerged during the presidency of Hugo Chávez. In the mid-1950's, a military government bent on modernizing Venezuela razed dozens of slums in the heart of the capital Caracas, replacing them with massive buildings to house the city's working poor. The project remained unfinished when the dictatorship fell on January 23, 1958, and in a matter of days city residents illegally occupied thousands of apartments, squatted on green spaces, and renamed the neighborhood to honor the emerging democracy: the 23 de Enero (January 23). During the next thirty years, through eviction efforts, guerrilla conflict, state violence, internal strife, and official neglect, inhabitants of el veintitrés learned to use their strategic location and symbolic tie to the promise of democracy in order to demand a better life. Granting legitimacy to the state through the vote but protesting its failings with violent street actions when necessary, they laid the foundation for an expansive understanding of democracy-both radical and electoral-whose features still resonate today. Blending rich narrative accounts with incisive analyses of urban space, politics, and everyday life, Barrio Rising offers a sweeping reinterpretation of modern Venezuelan history as seen not by its leaders but by residents of one of the country's most distinctive popular neighborhoods.Political participationVenezuelaCaracasCity planningPolitical aspectsVenezuelaCaracasSquattersPolitical activityVenezuelaCaracasVenezuelaPolitics and government20th century1950s.1958.20th century.barrios.bolivarian revolution.caracas.democracy.ethnographers.ethnographic research.historians.housing.hugo chavez.illegal occupation.latin america scholars.latin america.latin american studies.military government.modern venezuela.modernization.political leaders.popular politics.protests.public housing community.slums.state violence.urban landscape.urban politics.urbanization.venezuelan history.violent history.working poor.Political participationCity planningPolitical aspectsSquattersPolitical activity987.06/3Velasco Alejandro1978-1643178MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910824514903321Barrio rising3988265UNINA03417nam 22006853u 450 991048872100332120250628110037.03-030-74218-0(CKB)5590000000516484EBL6676597(AU-PeEL)EBL6676597(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/71323(MiAaPQ)EBC6676597(PPN)269152822(ODN)ODN0010067274(oapen)doab71323(EXLCZ)99559000000051648420220617d2021|||| u|| |engur|n|---|||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierBenefit/Cost-Driven Software Development With Benefit Points and Size PointsCham Springer International Publishing AG20211 online resource (114 p.)Simula SpringerBriefs on Computing ;v.8Description based upon print version of record.3-030-74217-2 This open access book presents a set of basic techniques for estimating the benefit of IT development projects and portfolios. It also offers methods for monitoring how much of that estimated benefit is being achieved during projects. Readers can then use these benefit estimates together with cost estimates to create a benefit/cost index to help them decide which functionalities to send into construction and in what order. This allows them to focus on constructing the functionality that offers the best value for money at an early stage. Although benefits management involves a wide range of activities in addition to estimation and monitoring, the techniques in this book provides a clear guide to achieving what has always been the goal of project and portfolio stakeholders: developing systems that produce as much usefulness and value as possible for the money invested. The techniques can also help deal with vicarious motives and obstacles that prevent this happening. The book equips readers to recognize when a project budget should not be spent in full and resources be allocated elsewhere in a portfolio instead. It also provides development managers and upper management with common ground as a basis for making informed decisions.Simula SpringerBriefs on ComputingMathematical & statistical softwarebicsscSoftware EngineeringbicsscDesenvolupament de programarithubAnàlisi cost-beneficithubLlibres electrònicsthubMathematical SoftwareSoftware Engineeringopen accessbenefits managementbenefit pointsearned businessvalue managementbenefit/costs indexuncertainty assessmentperiodizationMathematical & statistical softwareMathematical & statistical softwareSoftware EngineeringDesenvolupament de programari.Anàlisi cost-beneficiCOM051230COM077000bisacshHannay Jo Erskine1238977AU-PeELAU-PeELAU-PeELBOOK9910488721003321Benefit2875077UNINA
