The Federated Network of Institutional Repositories of Scientific Publications (Red Federada de Repositorios Institucionales de Publicaciones Científicas), or simply LA Referencia, is a Latin American network of open access repositories. Through its services, it supports national Open Access strategies in Latin America through a platform with interoperability standards, sharing and giving visibility to the scientific production generated in institutions of higher education and scientific research.


From the national nodes, scientific articles, doctoral and master's theses are integrated, coming from more than a hundred universities and research institutions from the nine countries that now form LA Referencia. Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, El Salvador, Mexico and Peru are active members of the network and Costa Rica was integrated in 2016.


This experience is based on technical and organizational agreements between public science and technology agencies (Ministries and Oncyts ) of the member countries, together with RedCLARA. LA Referencia was born through the Cooperation Agreement, signed in Buenos Aires in 2012, which reflects the political will to offer in open access the scientific production of Latin America as a regional public good with emphasis on the results financed with public funds.

Legal Pluralism as a Method of Interpretation: A Methodological Approach to Decolonising Indigenous Peoples’ Land Rights under International Law

Journal Articles & Books

Ever since the arrival of the European colonisers, theories of international law have been used to justify the process of dispossession of indigenous lands. Even though the adoption of human rights have led to some amelioration, the author claims that this has proved unsatisfactory to address indigenous concerns for one reason: international law remains deeply rooted in colonial concepts, such as the concepts of ‘sovereignty’ and ‘property’.

La tragedia de los comunes en la competencia vertical entre jurisdicciones

Journal Articles & Books
Argentine

Los beneficios de la competencia institucional se alcanzan bajo ciertas normas que impiden la violación de derechos y la depredación de los recursos. La competencia horizontal puede tomar la forma de agresión violenta entre jurisdicciones (guerra) o la de cooperación y comercio. Su impacto puede ser “negativo” si substrae recursos de gobiernos benevolentes comprometidos con el bienestar general de la comunidad, pero “positivos” si se los considera como otra forma de controlar el Leviatán.

A (in)sustentabilidade do desenvolvimento urbano nos Estados Unidos: o que as cidades brasileiras podem aprender com as americanas

Journal Articles & Books
États-Unis d'Amérique
Brésil
Amérique latine et Caraïbes

As cidades americanas produziram um espaço único, muito diferente das áreas urbanizadas da Europa e da América Latina. Esta singularidade se deve a diversos fatores históricos que propiciaram um tipo de desenvolvimento urbano baseado em direitos individuais e interesses econômicos. Hoje, enquanto as cidades americanas lutam para corrigir os erros do passado, vê-se os mesmos erros sendo repetidos em outros países, notadamente o Brasil.
