Riding Into the Heart of Patagonia

by Pfeiffer, Nancy
No customer reviews yet ISBN 9781960373861

Nancy Pfeiffer, a novice horsewoman, journeyed across Patagonia alone on horseback.

Nancy spent two decades and three thousand kilometers navigating horse trails through rugged wilderness, as dangerous as it was breathtaking. Through sun-filled days and heart-stopping snowstorms, every challenge became part of the adventure.

Over time, Nancy developed an appreciation for the vibrant traditions and culture of the hospitable people who helped her in her quest, from acquiring horses to giving her a place to hunker down. As she watched condors soar above receding glaciers and shoed horses with hardy pioneers, Patagonia silently slipped into her soul.

In the end, she joins her new friends in protesting the encroaching destruction to the physical and cultural landscape brought on by a scheme to dam Patagonia's largest rivers.

Join Nancy on her journey across Patagonia and experience one of the earth's most stunning landscapes from her unique perspective, on the back of a horse.

Governing the Military: The Armed Forces Under Democracy in Chile
<p>Governing the military combines the study of governance, democratisation, and policymaking to explore how military politics have unfolded since the return to democracy in Chile. The book offers timely research to understand the rocky road to overcome the civil-military tension of the 1990s and the challenges presented by novel security demands in the twenty-first century, including the militarisation of urban crime and pandemics, and its consequences on human rights. The book will also introduce the reader to failed policies, lack of attention to governance, and decaying democratic practices. <p/>The volume examines eight themes considered fundamental to understand the modern governance of the armed forces: the state of civil-military relations, political transition and military subordination, roles and missions, military effectiveness, fiscal spending, inter-agency challenges, international engagements, and transparency and corruption.</p>
