Camilo Pardo Umaña, special for El Tiempo
La imagen contiene una noticia acerca de un personaje singular en la historia de Colombia: Judas Tadeo Landínez. A través de una pluma crítica, el autor, Camilo Pardo Umaña, nos pinta un retrato detallado de este hombre de negocios, describiéndolo como un astuto y ambicioso personaje que supo aprovechar las oportunidades de su época para amasar una gran fortuna. Narra cómo Landínez, junto a su socio José María Plata, crea una especie de bolsa de valores llamada "La Ballena". Esta entidad financiera permitía a los inversores dejar su dinero a cambio de pagarés respaldados por las firmas de ambos socios. Sin embargo, esta actividad pronto se convierte en un foco de especulación y riesgo.

Culture of Fear and Control in Costa Rica (I). Crime Statistics and Law Enforcement
Huhn S. Culture of Fear and Control in Costa Rica (I). Crime Statistics and Law Enforcement. GIGA Working Papers. Vol 104. Hamburg: GIGA; 2009.The Costa Rican talk of crime is fundamentally based on the assumption that crime rates have increased significantly in recent years and that there is today a vast and alarming amount of crime. On the basis of this assumption, fear of crime, the call for the “iron fist,” and drastic law enforcement actions are continually increasing. While crime statistics are the logical basis for the hypothesis on the far-reaching extent of delinquency, they are used in a problematic way in the talk of crime. In this paper I discuss Costa Rican crime statis-tics, their development, and their utilization in the talk of crime against the background of criminological theory. The theses of the paper are that a) the informative value of crime statistics regarding Costa Rican reality is far more questionable than the common utiliza-tion of them implies and b) when they are used as argumentation, these crime statistics do not provide evidence of the oft-proclaimed rising crime wave
