FOREWORD

“Latin America, that immense nation of astonished men and historic women, whose endless stubbornness is confused with legend… Harmony with our dreams wouldn’t make us feel less alone, as long as it doesn’t happen with actions that support peoples who adopt the illusion of having a life of their own when everything is finally divided up. Latin America doesn’t want nor does it have a reason to be a bishop without influence, nor does it have anything chimerical in its plans for independence and originality becoming a Western aspiration.” GABRIEL GARCÍA MÁRQUEZ

The Association of University Presses of Latin America and the Caribbean (EULAC) presents the first Latin American Universities Rights Catalogue—a key part of its mission to publicize academic thought by publishing books in numerous countries and languages: 662 titles by 89 publishers in 11 countries. This joint effort represents an unprecedented milestone for our region. At the same time, it’s an ongoing document requiring continuous improvement and persistent, long-term commitment. The catalogue is key in achieving a wider reach for our publications. Sales of translation and co-edition rights represent an unparalleled opportunity for internationalization, crossing spatial and linguistic borders. The catalogue has taken years of dedicated teamwork, fortified by the efforts of each and every one of us, as well as championing from the national networks and associations that make up EULAC: Mexico, Central America and the Caribbean, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Chile, Argentina, and Brazil. With our initiatives, programs, and projects, we will respond actively to challenges presented by changing university panorama, as well as to those faced in publishing. We do all this while continually striving to uphold excellence in university publications. The fact that we belong to a higher education institution compels us to think about publishing projects from a perspective shaped by distinct realities. However, we have overcome our differences and taken advantage of opportunities, using collaborative approaches. This catalogue represents everything we do currently, and everything we can build together in the future. Selling rights goes far beyond a simple commercial action—it entails starting a dialogue, fomenting debate, and promoting knowledge. This publication also demonstrates the maturity of our projects and confirms the need to give them publicity. Our aspiration is a Latin America in permanent dialogue with the world. Being able to share this catalogue is the realization of a dream. The information is a map. Join us as you travel to new territories—to explore our cultural wealth, and to experience deeply an animate and navigable continent eager to share its knowledge and history. This cartography, represented in each title, shows us that university publications are our forte. This catalogue will be a fundamental reference for exploring and disseminating knowledge, and an essential tool for supporting our books in reaching new audiences. Sayri Karp president

SUICIDE ETHNOGRAPHIES IN SOUTH AMERICA

2017

Suicide is a latent problem in the American continent, which engenders concern and raises several questions. Though the subject has been dealt with primarily in the field of health care, there have been important interdisciplinarial efforts in order to understand its complexities and its sociocultural varieties. It is in this aspect that the ethnographical records in regard to it become valuable contributions, in order to enrich this line of investigation starting from Southamerican anthopology. Ethnographies of Suicide in Southamerica presents twelve anthropological reflections about cases of suicide in this side of the continent. Each of them shows different interpretations and senses given to self induced death in different regions of the Amazon and the Andes. The texts are presented in the native language written by the authors, some of them in Portuguese and others in Spanish in view of preserving the linguistical expressions of each tale.

This publication recollects four essays presenting a significant change of his interest in research towards a new geographic and cultural region (from the Amazon to the Andean mountains), referring to political and social processes taking place during centuries of a remote past. He extends his objectives of work and investigation thoroughly with a perspective of “Historical Anthropology” and “Ethnohistory”. He is not a historian, and asks the historians for comprehension of his potential errors committed in his “incursion” into their fieldworks; he used some theoretical methods and options having nothing to do with anthropology, in which he had been active for many decades and which has been the subject of his daily academic activity.

Diversity remains a challenge to the university. Thought as a western institution that houses, promotes and disseminates “the” canon “of” knowledge—all in the singular—the university is increasingly interested in studying diverse knowledge that exists outside of it in contemporary social and natural environments, but it does not manage to recognize, make visible or take advantage of the diversities and diverse knowledge that exist within its own institutionality. The present book constitutes a first attempt to study the different expressions of diversity and that the students themselves detect within their respective university and their respective career.

Traditionally, “the sacred” has been defined from the western perspective as “something related to the divinity or devoted to religious purposes” as well as, “the opposite of profane” according to Eliade. It is often assumed that “the sacred” is experienced primarily in rituals and in spatial dimensions, but not in its social and economic dimensions. In the set of studies collected in this volume, the sacred is analyzed using ontological categories which serve as alternatives to dual concepts, or through the identification of new ontological relationships to understand the religious phenomenon in the pre–Hispanic and post–Hispanic world all along the Northern and Central Andes.

Hernan Malo Gonzalez argued that the university, as the “seat of reason” must be critical, and that within this, the self–criticism of reason and the university itself must be exercised. This is the central topic of the investigation undertaken by Iván Carvajal that culminates in this book: a critical inquiry regarding the purpose of the university in our time, as a result of its ability to maintain itself or to be to democratic public space, open to the multiplicity of knowledge, dialogue and debate. With this aim, the author reviews the “mission of the university”—in the sense given by Ortega y Gasset to this phrase—from the second half of the last century, to current attempts at reform.

Through statistical and political analysis of the country, Schedler shows us an x–ray of this problem. “[This book] opens a window to the horror.

What about the other kinships? this book talks about what happens when widows and widowers, get divorced or separated men and women with children get involved in a new relationship. These relationships makes families that challenge many social beliefs about what a family is supposed to be: there are fathers and mothers but not all the sons and daughters living in the same house; not all the children live with their father and mother; nor all the financial dependents are sustained with the same resources. This book takes us into the organization of these families and lets us peek inside the contexts and ways to make decisions on aspects of the family life such as housing, money administration, and children upbringing.

This book consists of a number of points of view about the country we have become during the past few years. These are unsolved issues that need urgent solutions: unpunished violence and its expression in the Ayotzinapa case; the exhaustion of a legitimacy that cannot recover through reforms, unable to modify the exercise of power; the electoral and non–electoral pathways that shows the constraints of a system with a limited representation and a limited margin to establish civic counterweights to State governance; the disadvantaged groups litigation and struggle: the indigenous people and the State impunity that replicates flaws of dynamics, unable to dispense justice.

This work offers an original proposal to think critically about the power relations existing in contemporary agriculture. In it, the author tries to clarify some of the strategies that the industrial agrobusiness, in collusion with the state and multilateral dependencies sets in motion, with the purpose of making millions of farmers lives functional, so that their bodies, enunciations and sensibilities, may be useful to the dynamics of capital accumulation. The book also shows the other side describing how and under what conditions social movements are responding to the loss generated by this model. The central thesis is that many ongoing agroecological processes are providing one of the most interesting guidelines to visualize transitions towards post–development, post–extractivism, and the construction of multiple worlds beyond the capital sphere.

224 PAGES

2017

The book “Situated women: autonomous midwives in Mexico” goes deep into the world of contemporary autonomous midwives in Mexico. Born in the wave of human rights movements, and intimately related to the modern dilemmas of midwifery, the book explores the complex characteristics of the struggles that these midwives undertake. Submerged in various challenges, these midwives tend to fall between professional and traditional midwifery models while simultaneously blurring this division. Given that autonomy, is one of the central elements these midwives do not possess, the concept results politically significant when pressing forward the criticism of the medicalization of birth and the anti–systemic posture. This way, the book captures the global, historical and regional panorama of the contemporary midwifery struggles and brings forth the mini–narratives of midwives themselves, discussed during encounters with the author.

Handbook, according to two definitions of the word in the dictionary of the Real Academia de la Lengua Española is, “a concise reference book that summarizes the most substantial aspects of a topic” or, “a book or notebook in which to make annotations”. This book deals more with the second definition in which the critical annotations of the author, made throughout her experience in museums and research, led her to note down new ways to approach Colombian art from the 19th century. As well as her many conferences and publications, it was the two courses that the author taught at the Department of Arts at Universidad de los Andes that consolidated the contents in this book, which is aimed at young students of Colombian 19th century art.

Fungi have been, are and will be protagonists in the history of the Earth and its inhabitants. It is believed, conservatively, that the different species of fungi number around a million and a half and we only superficially know less than one hundred thousand. Biology of fungi takes a tour of the taxonomy, physiology, genetics and genomics of the organisms traditionally recognized as fungi and which today are grouped into several strains. No book like this currently exists in the market to update the reader on the taxonomy of fungi.

This book explores sources giving rise to the risks involved in the Colombian postconflict. It does so through a perspective of links formed decades ago between legal resources and dynamics of the armed conflict and crime in Colombia's different regions. Based on a detailed analysis of the banana trade (in Urabá), coffee trade (in Caldas, Risaralda and Quindío), coal (in La Guajira and Cesar), emeralds (in Boyacá), ferronickel (in the municipality of Montelíbano, Córdoba), flowers (in Sabana de Bogotá), gold (in Chocó, Santander, Tolima and Nariño) and oil (Arauca, Casanare, Meta, and the municipality of Barrancabermeja, Santander), the book suggests that, beyond the drug trade, different economic activities have been related to the armed conflict and crime, and these must be taken into account when formulating public policy and new research agendas.

An idea of non–reproductive education is structured based on the postulates of Baruch Spinoza, a prominent seventeenth– century philosopher. Bearing in mind that the behavior of the human being depends to a great extent on the education he receives, the author ventures into this issue not without first clarifying that the concept of Education was not present in the time of Spinoza. Therefore, it carries out an exhaustive exercise of reflection and analysis from which is extracted what would be the philosopher's vision about this issue, which is a central point of discussion for the progress of current societies. Subsequently, a proposal is structured about how people should be educated, which is not suitable for those who are satisfied with the functioning of their social environment. In general, in addition to knowing Spinoza's ideas, this book represents a valuable contribution to delve into the postulates of rationalist philosophy through one of its most distinguished representatives.

Latin American music is passionate and rhythmic, but also sad and reflective. In this book, musicologist Juan Pablo González seeks to articulate thoughts about what music, musicians, audiences, and cultural industries in Latin America offer to us. Thoughts that allows us to approach Latin America from within, from its veins, from those that measure its pulse and from the place where the most intimate of its diverse and dynamic identities circulate. The proposal, is to observe or listen to Latin American music as a whole from within paradigms of study arising, from the broad field of the humanities and the social sciences, and from paradigms that influenced the 1980s renewal of musicology, which led this discipline to revise the way it thought about music.

Through multiple tracks, and based on an astonishingly extensive body of work, the author tries to capture the “runaway time” of this era, faster than ever in our history. He addresses the cultural and verbal landscape of recent years to offer us a critical description of the tendencies operating in Chile and other countries. Its pages leave the impression that in many writers of today, the absorbing interest in the moment hinders or prevents a broader look. The critic's penetrating analysis, always innovative, often audacious, will undoubtedly stimulate the imagination and the intellect of readers.

Christian feminist theology surges from the idea that contemporary feminism is a fundamental challenge to Christianity, which addresses above all the dignity of women and the full humanity of all human beings. In a certain sense, it is the quest for how to speak correctly about God to promote relations of equality and reciprocity between men and women, because language—also theological language—shapes the reality we inhabit.

MATERIA Y REALIDAD EN XAVIER ZUBIRI

One of the fundamental problems of philosophy is to specify the relationship between matter and reality. Zubiri, in a position that he describes as “materista”, identifies, in a certain way, matter and reality. Everything apprehended has a sensitive moment (material) and a moment of reality (intelligible), without reality being reduced to the sensible. But Zubiri, especially in his later works, stresses that the sensible are not only the “contents” (white, etc.) shown by our senses, but also the “ways” in which those same contents are shown to us. The book tries to reactualize its “materista” thesis in light of this last analysis, which allows to rethink diverse material realities from elementary particles to man.

It is a fact that the problem of the origin of civilization and culture has given rise to one of the major chapters of a large part of social, anthropological and philosophical studies concerning man. From early times, psychoanalysis also endorsed these concerns, outlining a strong interest in their treatment. This interest became the reflection of the whole series of cultural texts published by Freud throughout his life. The purpose of this book is to contribute to the body of these debates, rescuing the original reading that psychoanalysis does to understand the meaning of cultural formations. Sense that also organizes a saying about the original and the archaic.

This book studies the vision of the Catholic Church regarding human rights: how it has addressed these rights in its Magisterium.

The work offers, at the end, a valuable analytical index, where it defines fundamental concepts within the framework of the subject studied, from anthropology to violence.

Literature lives from its confused condition, from its misunderstanding with itself: in an imminence of uncertainty that breaks down the borders of subjectivity and at the same time, it is something that is “taught”, a “subject” labeled in institutions. Analía Gerbaudo—a university researcher who tirelessly, has covered Derrida's writing as well as Argentine schools and study plans, literary theory as focus for professors and teachers—establishes in this book some questions about the literature's condition: what were the fantasies of intervention of the critics that between 1984 and 1986 taught Argentine Literature and literary theory in the University of Buenos Aires? Why exhume those classes and those programs would contribute to the current discussion about the teaching of literature? As in her previous books and studies, Gerbaudo reactivates and continues the debate about the meaning of practice and theoretical knowledge as professors of literature and at the same time, establish herself as one of the most active specialists on these issues.

Ernesto Meccia develops a “socio–narrative” analysis of testimonies related to homosexuality transformations as told by adult homosexual men and older adults living in the city of Buenos Aires and its surroundings since 1983. They come from a world of humiliations that spoke in their behalf; It was there that they “learned” to be homosexual. But that world has ceased to exist after a long process of change that transformed the use of language referring to homosexuality. Therefore, it is important to ask: in what way do the lead characters of that history tell that story? What are the narrative resources, in what formats, what clauses? And also: in what ways do they describe themselves as people, inserted in the current transformations?

What are the main transformations of contemporary democracies? Does it make any sense to differentiate the idea of transformations of democracy, from the idea of transformations of contemporary politics? How do the recent changes in political structures impact on the logic of democratic government? What do the new options for democracy that are “headed” in many cases by recognized anti–democrats involve? Democracy seems to have reached a sort of blind spot in the historical process of its most recent development. The increase of contradictions, aggressions, distrust, hatred of the other, coupled with the primacy of the negative and colonization of politics by particular interests, forces us to rethink the lines of analysis about the transformations of democracies in recent years, since sometimes a type of destructuring of its classic contents is evident, such as the expansion of equality, of freedom, of the common welfare and the deepening of pluralism.

It questions what Neoliberalism held as the universal principle of development: an ideal of progress taken out of context, and the illusion of a civilization without territories. At the same time, it proposes a central idea: development is a controversial political idea which contains and connects the complex dimensions of what is real on different levels (structural, institutional, cultural and environmental); and it does so in a political manner that is open to the correlations of the interaction on social forces, to contextual determiners and to territorial projects in tension. These projects may remain unrealized, as unaccomplished social files, but under certain circumstances they may surface and give rise to situations that defy social perceptions, as well as capacity for action of peoples, its social groups and ordinary people.

Wars have motivated and forged certain systemic changes of international order to the point of establishing rules of engagement to combat that lead the creation of modern states. In this sense, the author argues that terrorism can also act as a driving force in international architecture. In the end, terrorism is a phenomenon that, due to its volatility, asymmetry and mutable nature, does not tend to disappear, on the contrary; its main characteristic is its diversity of faces and representations. So, could terrorism serve as leverage to modernize international architecture? A question that raises more questions.

Where does treatment and intervention begin for victims?, in the accompaniment methodologies or in theories and ideas that give rise to these? Around this reflection, revolves Episteme of the victimhood as a broad analysis on the production of victimology and the discourse on the victims; in the form of a meta–victimology that interrogates the origin of the discourses and practices that intervene to the victims of the armed conflict. This conceptual wager reclassifies the logic of victimization by differentiating the subjection to harm according to the condition of the suffering victim, surviving and survivor according to their position. Similarly, Episteme of victimhood deliberates around an ecosophy and on the consequences of the expert discourses as well as the role of the rescuers; how experts and rescuers can contribute not only to legal redress but also to the process of repositioning and psycho–legal passage from sufferer to survivor, and in the psychopolitical commitment of the survivor.

EDICIONES USTA–UNIVERSIDAD SANTO TOMÁS

2017

This book addresses the discussion of development with economic growth and aims, from other perspectives and theories, to overcome the hegemonic and official discourse of development doing it from the complexity of the “Community of Life”. Meanwhile, the human right to development has been studied from a single point of view, the “international law”. This has left aside the necessary ethical foundation, based on the new concept of bio–citizenship, together with the identification of its essential core in order to define it, from its relationship with Mother Earth and the Human Being, starting from complex thinking to provide a different understanding of development, of the right to development and its realization.

EDITORA ARGOS UNIVERSIDADE COMUNITÁRIA DA REGIÃO DE CHAPECÓ–UNOCHAPECÓ

BRAZIL The story of Argos Publishing house begins to be written in 1992 when Argos was born, the University produced the first researches on the region and on teaching. There was also a need to put into circulation the academic knowledge that was produced. Thus, while publishing texts on issues about the region (today, there are more than sixty titles), such as colonization, development, politics, education, and art, Argos publishes works that contribute to the production of new knowledge in various areas, such as Chemistry, Engineering, Education, Literature, Development, Research, and others. Argos is a publishing house that belongs to the Community University of the Chapecó Region (Unochapecó). It is currently a reference among university presses in Brazil, not only for the credibility of the content it publishes, but also because of the seriousness with which it treats the graphic, textual quality and distribution of its books. It aims to meet the objectives of the Unochapecó, committed to its scientific production, academic quality, democratic management, and outreach. Argos currently operates in the segment of printed and digital books, focusing on researchers, giving readers a broad access to scientific knowledge. In order to unify its publications in specific segments of books, Argos seeks, through its editorial lines, an even greater approximation to the readership through a visual standardization of its collections: Debates: It brings up a theme on which different views are analyzed from the perspective of each author and the existing scientific research. Didactics: They are theoretical–practical works that aid in the academic formation. Includes contents for the search of terms and anthologies. Major Themes: Results of research and guidelines and texts of foreign authors. Perspectives: They are works that have a pre–indication for publication. Generally they come from public announcements of entities related to the development of higher education institutions. Regional: Reflects the facts and the scenario of the southern region of Brazil, more specifically of the west of Santa Catarina.

They deal with contemporary literary and socio–political–cultural issues, such as the place of literature and humanities in the age of diversity–, but also with historical problems such as novel conceptions prior to the consolidation of the modern pattern of genre. The texts are characterized by the objectivity and rigor expected from the academic writing, as well as clarity and fluency, which is recommended to readers of the most diverse backgrounds.

This book collects essays written by João Cezar de Castro Rocha, and published in his column “Nossa América & Nosso Tempo” (Our America, Our Time). The book's title highlights the new concept proposed by the author: Unleashed readings. In the Iberian colonies, in particular, and in non–hegemonic circumstances, in general, art always seems to have been unleashed, since its origins expose the absence of any stabilizing foundation. We're in the need of a non–hegemonic Walter Benjamin in order to theorize the circumstance of an aesthetics which never had the aura of the work of art. In the absence of a stable origin, the “loss of aura” produces nostalgia. The process is even more radical: in the lack of original European works, which nonetheless serve as models for emulation, there can be no “loss of aura” to begin with. How to lament the absence of that which was never present? In this case, irreverence in dealing with tradition takes on the form of a singular poetics, forged within an isolated aesthetic experience, and whose consequences are far–reaching in terms of theoretical reflections and cultural politics.

In the set of texts that make up this book, written from the point of view of anthropology, history and literary studies, there is in common an archeology of resources that removes, in the materials studied, layers of meaning as well as imagine the historical hours of their consecutive uses, including academic–disciplinary ones. In this way, it goes in a certain way, against the historical–literary monumentalization of the discourses, built inside the critical pictures that only allows to summarize the oral character of the event, erasing or sometimes making invisible its manifestations and its “indexes” in the eyes of the reader in the present.

This volume is dedicated to the reflection on the economic–industrial health care complex (EIHCC) from the proposition that the articulation between technological advance, productive development and health promotion is fundamental to guarantee effectiveness in the formulation of public policies for the sector. The editors and the authors of the book defend the need to combine concepts from several areas of science to strengthen the EIHCC, in view of the “profound disarticulation of technological and productive skills and the loss of opportunities to advance in the structuring of a public health system”, effects of the neoliberal economy direction that prevailed in the 1990s. The five chapters are presented as part of an “integrated, systemic and political economy vision”, analyzing aspects related to production and innovation within the EIHCC, and seeking to consolidate political and academic foundations to build “a national project based on social progress and the productive structure”.

From the encounter between health and international relations the concepts and practices of contemporary global health and health diplomacy originate. But such an encounter was only established in terms of the process of globalization. The global and systemic economic crisis, exposing the structural gaps of global capitalism, has deepened preexisting inequalities and since then has only been expanding with serious social, economic and health consequences, particularly for poor countries and the poor of all countries. The crisis has hit Latin American countries, and much of the progress made is now threatened, including achievements in the health field which has been profoundly affected. This book seeks to explain health in the global scenario; what shapes it socially and economically; how the global dialogues between the regional and the local; how global governance has an impact on health; how global health governance takes course; and what role diplomacy plays in favor of a more equitable health situation.

EDITORA UEPG

2017

This book seeks to address the theme of inequality in a different way from the traditional approaches that understand it, in general, as separated from the totality of the social, political and economic issue. For this reason, it is an attempt to value the meaning inherent in its legitimation relations and the conditions that at the same time have concealed and reproduced it throughout time in Brazil. After being constituted by the colonization, inequality ended up becoming one of the main marks of the Brazilian society. The individual competition dynamics and the rationale behind the functioning of markets relied on the presence of a patrimonial State to protect, strengthen and privilege the national champions, either rich families or companies that were considered priority.

When talking about fascism, many times, we find very superficial texts which describe this definition to any conservative movement or authoritarian phenomenon. In fact, the fascism has its own characteristics that must be recognized. Studying this complex set of occurrences and fights on the Western trenches is essential to understand a period that was one of the most dramatic in the contemporary human history. In this sense, reading Gramsci is vital in this work, exactly for not accepting simplifications that reduce the dynamics of “large, complicated and terrible world” through schemes or mathematical equations.

EDITORA UFMG UNIVERSIDADE FEDERAL DE MINAS GERAIS

BRAZIL Founded in 1985, UFMG has been considered one of the most active publishers in the country, publishing works of scientific and cultural value that correspond to the teaching, research and outreach activities developed at the Federal University of Minas Gerais. Derived from an editorial policy based on a contemporary and multidisciplinary perspective, committed to the dissemination of scientific and cultural knowledge, Editora UFMG's catalogue translates, through the diversity and quality of published works and authors, at national and international level, the scientificâ&#x20AC;&#x201C;cultural exchange that prevails in our academic environment. Our proposal is to foster the academic transit between domestic, national, and international production with the publication of leading authors of contemporary thought, many of them translated for the first time in the country. The intensive exercise of this editorial policy both supports an innovative choice of themes among university publishers as well as reveals a concern in breaking the disciplinary conservatism and the hierarchy between the diverse discourses that compose the academic field. In 2014 we began the production of ebooks in order to respond to the new challenges brought about by the great transformations in the book market: a growing demand for faster and more democratic access to information, and the new ways of reading and writing that have characterized knowledge in the contemporary world. With more than 1,000 published titles and an average of 50 titles per year, our catalogue is organized in collections that comprise different subject areas: Anthropology, Architecture, Chemistry, Computer Sciences, Ecology, Economy, Education, Engineering, Geography, Geology, History, Linguistics, Literary Criticism, Mathematics, Music, Philosophy, Physics, Political Science, Sociology, and Visual Arts.

The architect's secret, suggests a transdisciplinary dialogue between architecture and literature approaching the facts and contemporary knowledge from concepts such as precariousness, failure and unfinished. The essay announces constructive practices of minor nature that reveal possibilities for the construction of other and different folds on the production of contemporary architecture. In a territorial context increasingly urbanized and dominated by an order based on a uniform, clean, monitored and institutional management of social, economic and cultural existance, the experience narrated here brings as a guest the knowledge of the other, to share and investigate other ways of training and practice of a man–architect.

Tom Jobim was one of the greatest composers of the twentieth century and he left a legacy that goes beyond his scores. The impression is that music was only a sublime resource to express and conjugate other passions: literature, ornithology, architecture, ecology, linguistics, geography, history, meteorology, poetry, botany. The conviction remains that if he had never played a piano or written a melody, today we would also be celebrating and discussing the work of a great Brazilian performer.

MAESTRO SOBERANO–ENSAIOS SOBRE ANTONIO CARLOS JOBIM

EDITORA UNESP UNIVERSIDADE ESTADUAL PAULISTA

BRAZIL It has been a long time since publishing houses have ceased to be companies that merely publish books. They also need to become a place of ideas, holding the knowledge of the past, thinking about the present, and launching the debates for the future. They must help society to walk a path of knowledge, connected to the contemporary world.I n 1987, the Universidade Estadual Paulista (Unesp) founded its publishing house. The project had already announced these ideals. In 1996, searching for a consolidation of these goals, Unesp Publishing Foundation was created. Its aim was to expand its activities through a new model of social organization, strongly connected with the profile that the institution originally intended to achieve: to be something more than only a publishing house. Unesp Publishing Foundation has, therefore, in its own conception, the goal of democratization of knowledge, being a potential aggregator. It serves as the main bridge between one of the most exemplary Brazilian universities and society. It is through this Foundation that the academic and scientific production of Unesp can reach the population as a way of showing the extensive research work carried out in the University. Unesp Publishing Foundation also promotes training activities that extend beyond the walls of the university and amplifies its impact by making available a wide range of books of renowned thinkers and scholars in Brazil and abroad without any kind of restrictions.

This book is addressed to all who are interested in literature and wonders what it is and how many senses and worlds can fit in that word. This book is an excellent gateway to literature knowledge. Throughout its 16 chapters, it offers a deep study into antiquity and from there, is a free journey through the history of literacy. Marisa Lajolo is able to study the subject by putting in contrast or in a complementarity relation to multiple—and perhaps countless—aspects of literature. The most important point of this light and fluid, but grounded and profound text, is the conception that there are many literatures, even though some voices do not coexist well with difference.

2016

A study into Freud's world unveils his interest on women. The goal is to investigate how Freud, subverting the scientific assumptions of time, arrived at his models and innovative concepts, such as the unconscious. In the same way, a subsidiary objective is to understand how the modern world is established after the disintegration of the old hierarchy between sexes. Following this path, Freud's phallic logic faces difficulties, which he would mention in his later works. The co–protagonism of both, the role of women and the Freudian theory is approached by seeking inspiration in art and poetry.

Dealing with the past is always a complex endeavor and it is particularly difficult when gross human rights violations are involved that are carried out during war or armed conflict. Truth commissions have become a standard response to address such a difficult past hopping to provide voice to victims and a path to a non–violent future. This book analyzes five case studies: two in Latin America (Guatemala, Peru), two in Africa (Kenya, Sierra Leone), and one in Asia (Timor–Leste). The final report and its recommendations are critically evaluated, taking into account their impact on truth, reconciliation, memory, and justice. The aim of the book is to get learning for other truth commissions and specifically the truth commission in Colombia that is currently in process to be set up.

As a species, we humans are currently going through a paradoxical moment in our history—a moment both bright and dark. Thus, we are experiencing anxiety and uncertainty about the future awaiting us in this “technological age” we are living in. Are we the masters of our technology, or are we produced by it instead? Is there any place for us in the future, or are we condemned to disappear, replaced by new species of technologically improved beings? In short, is it possible to live an authentic human life in a hi–tech world? This book addresses these and other urgent questions, dealing with the possibilities of humanization, or rather, of dehumanization, brought about by new technologies. From the vantage points of philosophy and theology, the writings in this volume seek to elaborate some answers regarding such a vital subject.

This volume collects the lectures given by international guests, as well as Faculty members from the PhD in Humanities, Humanism and Person —DHUPE— at the International Congress “The Present and Future of Humanities”, an academic event organized in September 2017 at Universidad de San Buenaventura, Bogotá. Despite the diversity of perspectives, theoretical frameworks, and disciplines represented, all papers included in this book converge into fulfilling a twofold aim: first, they seek to enlighten the meaning of the terms: “crisis of Humanities,” “crisis of Humanism,” and “crisis of the Human”. And second, they seek to restore the meaning of the classical studies and the humanities in general, in terms of a kind of knowledge that cannot be subjected to any pursuit of economical benefit.

The current educational institutions should carry out an update to educate in science in an effective way and to define better the profile of citizens who are intended to be formed in their disciplines and needed to transform the community. There is abundant theory about “curricular design”; in this context of great variety of approaches and opinions, what is absent is the local specificity; that is, a real approach on how to design, apply, and evaluate a curricular project in a concrete educational institution of a certain community. This book presents a proposal to discuss and implement curricular theories, considering the global dimension and universal thought, as well as the cultural problems that assed specific educational institutions.

For reasons of methodology, emphasis will be placed on the field of primary schools, without this meaning the middle and higher education are not taken into account. The circulation of common titles allows us to see which were the main doctrines that circulate in some disciplines, are criticized or emulated by the lawyers.

To speak about evaluation is to mention something that has always been part of the educational world, even if it is an excuse, as a problem or as a hope. That applies to both the individual and the collective. In first case, the evaluation is understood as a collective judgment, is presented as an excuse that justifies all parts of an educational process, from its initial objectives to its results, through its contents and the agents who have developed this process, teachers, educational psychologists, educators, etc. But, what do we mean by evaluating?, mark a place on a scale?, indicate: Colombia, 390 points in mathematical competence on PISA scale and from there, establish criticism of the system? The evaluation can serve as an excuse but does not make sense by itself, as a result of the set of relationships between the objectives, methods, the pedagogical model, students, society, the teacher, etc.

Nowadays the exercise of reflection is an interesting and necessary proposal from the academy, perhaps the immediacy of things or the dynamism of everyday life have tried to naturalize the same existence. In this way, thinking Latin American is the challenge of contemporary philosophy, especially that conceived from these latitudes. The bet that is exposed and manifested in this work, takes as its starting point the idea of the hermeneutic cultural enclave, in the words of Koselleck, from that historical passing that has shaped the very essence of these concepts and runs through the veins of Latin cultural manifestations. In this way, it is to think the hermeneutics beyond theorization, that is, in the practices, those conceived by and from the social collectives under the context of integration of the Latin American being. This is how the cultural hermeneutics that is drawn in the work has the pretension of a possible identity integration, where interculturality stands as the hermeneutics of Latin America.

When working with children and teenagers in the physical condition area, the first question we ask is, how could you know their fitness level?, are they active individuals in a good physical condition?, what test makes it possible to verify it?, are the selected tests related to the students health?, how to interpret and report the results? Later on, and after the diagnostic evaluation, it would be logical to analyze how is it possible to improve or keep the fitness level of these young people in order to improve their health. With it, comes other questions. It is common knowledge that an inactive child will probably become an inactive adult, it is a challenge to show those in charge of them some ways to help them out of a sedentary lifestyle and become active people, increasingly out of election rather than obligation. This change of paradigm in youth is what is expected in order to have adults that choose to do physical activity all their lives.

Eating “green” is better and healthier. It is healthier to people, animals and the environment. Having a plant based diet is associated with greater longevity, less chronic diseases and less environment damage. Vegetarians enjoy lower cholesterol levels, lower blood pressure, less obesity, less heart disease, less hypertension and less impact of some types of cancer than those whose diet includes meat. Superfoods such as oilseeds (nuts), olive oil, grapes and grape juice, pomegranates, legumes (specially soy), figs, barley, flaxseed and oat are a must in a healthy diet, along with lots of water. Although good health habits do not guarantee a long life, they do increase the likelihood of having a longer and better life.

2017

Can you talk about death with dignity without talking about euthanasia?, are they deprived of their dignity those that die after a long agony, exposed to intrusive medical procedures? This book gives an alternative to the deeply rooted belief according to which death with dignity is what happens in an ideal environment, free from pain and other sufferings. This work develops around the thesis that establishes that a death with dignity is the culmination of a life lived according to principles that gave dignity. This principles cannot be bought with money, but are built through life, sometimes with imperceptible ease, other times with great effort. Whatever the case is, those precepts ease the development of the needed maturity, to arrive at the end of the road with the certainty that not even the worst illness can harm the dignity of the person.

This book responds to a need of a good part of the World's population, which still doesn't know the indicator and its characteristics, in spite of how much has been written about it. At the same time, it seeks to promote the application of the indicator in a context, the Latin American one, where its application is in the initial phases. We can all contribute to the design of strategies aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions that we generate.

In a series of articles, the prominent educator and anthropologist makes a lucid criticism of the current “in–school” system proposing a new way of looking at teaching–learning. The author says: “To teach, you have to amaze the learner, who as they try to unveil the mystery, they will learn from the educational perspective who does it right or wrong is secondary regardless of the level of education, whether in kindergarten, elementary or middle school, or university, because the important thing is not to have the correct answers according to school contents, but the formulation of questions, thanks to which you can organize the information on the basis of emerging criteria conceived from the regularities observed that allow you to elaborate an explanatory pattern. I think that as the students make progress at school, especially university, answers are required—and every time, more precise ones—but these must never exceed in quantity or quality, to generate questions—if that happens, the learning process becomes distorted, which becomes merely a routine and lack of mystery.”

This book explores some social–cultural needs of modern Mexico, which are reflected in the movement of icons of cultural nationalism, like the charro or the Indian, to bet on urban issues and to integrate other strong traditions, sucha as that of wrestlers. "[…] This book offers a fresh and conscientious look to an essential character of the Mexican popular imagination, and it is able to trace a journey through the elements that are key to discerning the changing qualities of a myth (El Santo) and the societies that feed it."

It is the story of nature concept that travels through paths not so visited and a story that suggests another way to understand modernity. Apart from the big linear tales and the sceptic tale that refute them, the book analyses the agreement and disagreement of the metaphysical basis upon which we built our vision of the world. This book explores the interaction between history of science, religion, philosophy and esotericism that are commonly seen as antagonists. From this perspective it is easier to understand the role played by the most popular figures and to highlight some conflicts. This book puts special emphasis in last century and has as protagonists the four edges that since ancient times have been fighting for the comprehension of the world: Greek nature, Biblical creation, gnostic acosmism and the hermetic anthropocentrism.

Against the conservative versions of science, Ricardo J. Gómez states that scientific practices and theories are loaded with different types of values, not only truth, simplicity, predictability, consistency, rigour and accuracy but also economical, social and ethical values typical of the political context in which the investigation has taken place. The author shows that none of what was described before affects the logic and objectivity of sciences, on the contrary it enhances them. This books proposal is a philosophy of science strictly political because the author considers the values of social context in scientific investigation as part of sciences. Ricardo J. Gómez states that this philosophy of science is politically responsible because it does not stand in neutral position before every context in the interest of being objective.

During the first 15 years of the 21st century, new media and new technologies radically changed the way in which Latin America informs, entertains and communicates. The digital revolution was accompanied by the expectations to open communications to new actors and a great diversity of flow and content. However, the levels of concentration of info–communicational activities have grown in the last years, as it is shown and analysed in the present research. This book explores the main changes in the structuring of a central area for democratic coexistence, circulation of culture, socialization and new economy. This is part of a series of previous studies done by doctors in communication, university teachers and researchers of the CONICET for Universidad Nacional de Quilmes and OBSERVACOM (Observatorio Latinoamericano de Regulación, Medios y Convergencia).

This book proposes an innovative strategy to achieve the welfare state in the 21st century: reorient economic activities towards the construction and reconstruction of sustainable cities. In a global economy facing economic and political crises, Roberto Kozulj suggests that if the activities linked to urban development were reoriented towards public works, the problem of structural unemployment would tend to be solved to a large extent. Based on economic growth based on the activation of low–skilled employment, the maintenance and transformation of cities would allow sustainability to show its benefits. On one hand, future generations could have natural resources and a non–degraded environment and, on the other, exercise their opportunities to be inserted into the labor market.

ROBERTO KOZULJ

Born in Buenos Aires in 1950. His professional career began in 1974 at the office of the Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (CEPAL) in Buenos Aires, shortly after its creation. There he worked in the area of mathematical models for comparison of long–term development styles, forming part of a small interdisciplinary group. He continued in this line of research at the Center for Development Studies of the Central University of Venezuela between 1977 and 1979. Between 1980 and 1986 he partially abandoned academic activity and worked on issues related to urban and environmental planning as part of an international consulting group. In 1986 he returned to Argentina after attending a call to work from the Bariloche Foundation on the project “Economic aspects of human development”, funded by the United Nations University. There he developed a vast career in topics related to energy and development, along with others linked to the design and study of global scenarios.

This publication presents seven investigations on the processes of submission and incorporation of the original peoples of the Patagonian, Pampa and Chaco regions by the Argentine State. The authors discuss central concepts such as genocide, terrorism and State violence. However, at the same time, they address the participation of civil society in the demonstration, deportation and distribution of indigenous peoples, as well as the action of the indigenous peoples themselves in those processes. In this sense, the ethnographic nature of the investigations enables the recovery of social memory silenced in nationalist narratives and gives individual status to the historical process.

Mellado studies a wide and diverse literary corpus, made up of productions by the Brazilian Joaquin Machado de Assis, the Cubans José Martí and Jesús Díaz, the Uruguayan José Rodó, the Peruvian José Mariátegui, the Chilean Roberto Bolaño and the Argentines Roberto Arlt and Graciela Cros. Through its different chapters, relations and tensions are proposed between the artistic field and the sociopolitical field, problematizing the literary praxis and the ways in which it is concretized. With an acute critical reading, she reflects on the way in which literature has been designing ways of looking at and thinking about Latin American culture. Her approach revisits the problem of representation in literature and the links of literary writing with life forms.

A book for those who are interested in doing speech analysis but lack in experience. Critical speech analysis—A qualitative research method is a new release that uses a methodological approach to a linguistic theory that has been sparking the interest of researches from several areas. The authors seek to contribute to the debate from a theorical–methodological perspective that, though is not new, has been producing results. Critical Speech Analysis (CSA) itself is one of many branches in the wide field of speech studies. In this book, the reader will find a systematic approach to speech that avoids generalizations and promotes the analysis of texts and practices that produce them. The book is organized in three parts: the first one is a discussion on CSA as a method of qualitative research for social criticism; the second one shows the link between CSA and ethnography; and the third one gives analysis examples.

The subject of utopia is still current and deserving of renewed debate. This book brings original and relevant interpretations of Thomas More's classic. In the first essay, the analysis of the narrative's structure as a literary piece, enacted by several characters—including 4 narrators—, shows that Utopia, by using the dialectics of dialogues and confrontation between characters, avoids suggesting off–the–shelf recipes to be applied leaving an open space. Being fiction is an advantage, it attenuates the “dystopia” in More's book. In the second essay, this dystopia is shown in the unidimensional and unilateral order, in which rules are imposed by a single ruler of the world, a self–sufficient and almighty interpreter of good, holder of civilization's values.

International migrations have reached peculiar dimensions in current times of globalization of markets and innovations in information technology, communication and transport. Scholars of the theme come to suggest that we live in the era of migration, synthesized in five fundamental characteristics: globalization, acceleration, differentiation, feminization and recently politicization of migration. The Critical Dictionary of International Migrations presents the concepts derived from the theoretical debates on international migrations and also from the related areas that are suitable for migratory studies. This multidisciplinary and broad mix is the way to respond to the challenge of achieving approaches and concepts that offer measures, elements that facilitate the migration phenomenon and the different forms of mobility.

This book is derived from the author's doctoral thesis, where the concepts of topological geometry are included in the architectural design. It is about a growing phenomenon in avant–garde professional practice that still lacks systematized methodological tools. A formal instrument, called topological stereotomy, is developed based on it. The combination of both terms results in a subcategory of the traditional stereotomy that develops specific logics of composition and design process. The topological principles applied to the architectural design generate continuous, intertwined, and fluid specialties, where the soil archetype is the main element for the production of topographic landscapes. This work offers specific and detailed keys to develop academic operations and professional works, which enables the transfer of contents into other fields.

From the educational psychology field, which she defines as bi–dimensional (both theory and practice), the author invites us to understand learners in their human and social nature, the identification of their complexity and what is required from the theory as well as the praxis, in addition to the use of the indiciary paradigm, while the educational psychologists are involved with their own symbolic–cognitive systems on what they intend to know and intervene in. She puts forward a construction of understanding based on the contributions of the social psychogenesis by Dora Laino, which she links up with concepts by authors such as Bleichmar, Urribarri, Lacan, Berenstein, Paín, A. Fernández, L. Fernández, Garay, among others. The text constitutes a reference essay for all of those interested in the teaching–learning processes, especially for those being trained in the educational psychology field.

The book is aimed at both the academic public and lovers of capoeira, interested in issues such as corporeity, transmission of culture and permanence/changes within the tradition. The author is a practitioner of capoeira Angola for many years, and spent the course of her research learning of regional capoeira. This experience has had a double function: not only has learned a new style of practice, but in the light of this process, she was able to re–learn the style (Angola) that her body was already use to. The result of this is a careful and sensitive reflection on the modes of commitment of the body in two aspects of capoeira predominantly seen under the simplistic view of an opposition between conservation and the distortion of tradition.

A passage that allows us to search for answers in the field of science, to retrace the peripherals of art, to understand the unpredictable movements of nature or to establish a link with computer advances. Researchers and academics echo voices of novel authors and fiction writers; knowledge and creativity converge. Analysis, innovation, history, commitment, denunciation, teaching, culture, poetry, folklore, theater, music, travel diaries, literature, illustrations. The possible worlds become, then, immeasurable. Taking advantage of them, we bridge the community so that it gets lost as much as it recognizes itself in our books.

The habit of drinking mate, which can be traced back to the culture of the Guarani people—one of the main hypotheses of this work—long before the arrival of Europeans to America, survived centuries of political oppression and cultural exchange. Yerbear is a practice that has accompanied the Spanish colonization, the struggles for independence, anarchy, civil wars and successive social processes of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. The art of brewing “mate” and The language of “mate”, two key books in Amaro Villanueva's work, propose— as Sergio Delgado, responsible for this edition, points out—“a combined and complementary study of objects and their language”.

AMARO VILLANUEVA

Born in Gualeguay, Entre Ríos, in 1900. Essayist, poet, storyteller and journalist; he devoted himself to the study of popular languages and the cultures in which they develop comprehensively and extensively, in particular the language of mate and lunfardo. In this sense, he is a pioneer in cultural, philological and anthropological studies in Argentina. In addition to five books devoted to the mate, he published a long essay on the Martín Fierro Crítica y pico, on Garibaldi in Entre Ríos, about the presence of the ombú tree in the civilizing process, several books of poems and fiction; also being an excellent chronicler. All his work was gathered by the publishing house of the National University of Entre Ríos (EDUNER) in 2010, almost three thousand pages in three volumes. Died in Buenos Aires on August 5, 1969.

Politics and happiness enjoy a conflicting relationship, the author states, while warning that the presentation of the relationship as impossible is a “version”. The porcupine's dilemma develops the idea that these, when facing the cold, have to find an optimal distance to keep themselves warm without being hurt. Gladis Martínez picks up this formulation when she refers to the “drama”, to which the relationship between politics and happiness is convened, enclosing it in the porcupine`s struggle which, in order to avoid a liaison conflict, make it impossible”. This analysis is the core of the work in which Eduardo Rinesi highlights three aspects: the wide range of the task that has been carried out (following most of the western thought); the author's success when explaining why the relationship between politics and happiness did not have a more prominent place in the history of our ideas; and the originality of making psychoanalysis visit “in a questioning and critical way” other discourses (those coming from political theory and political philosophy).

In such understanding, the reader is offered the possibility to recognize and evaluate these processes based on experiences of the involved. In addition, the available tools that enable their implementation through agricultural management are identified and analyzed. Two areas of decision are distinguished. The first, is a long term plan that involves a higher level of uncertainty and a greater degree of ambiguity. Finally, the second decision level involves implementation of strategies and management on agricultural undertakings.

She not only analyzes the musicians' quest for aesthetics which leads them to incorporate rhythmic effects, but also discovers their intentionality and describes the context in which such works were created and the environment in which the composer's careers developed. Karen Arango's maturity as an interpreter, her great talent and musical intuition, her deep and multi–faceted knowledge of the guitar techniques, together with a personality filled with care, dedication and passion that adds to the virtues of this Latin American artist are reflected and combined in this work, giving birth to an important source of reference.

Originally published in 1933 by the renowned publisher Tor, this novel condenses and foresees a great deal of the issues that represent the cruelty of capitalism: power abuse, humiliation and injustice. Far from sentimentalism, this work includes a series of “deviations” of mere denunciatory speech, placing it closer to be best tradition of realism in the Argentine literature. As Tania Diz states in the prologue, Carnelli wants to give testimony, and at the same time she also introduces really interesting variants: on one hand, the narrative voice, which slowly turns into a collective voice, the one of everyone who suffer the same evils. As if she were trying to make up a social voice–a polyphonic one. On the other hand, the fact that the main character is a woman, takes a strong stand on those situations or feelings, given that the gender perspective gets more attention than the social condition. The main value of this novel lies in this mixture of the female condition and social crisis.

Russia is a source of fascination and attraction, yet this admiration is counterbalanced by repulsion and fear. What happened in Russian history to produce such powerful contrasts? To answer this question, this book traces a route through the country's past; as an empire and then as the Soviet Union, Russia occupied a sixth of the world's total land mass and today it is the world's largest nation, a global superpower with one of the largest arsenals of nuclear weapons. To explain its importance we need to realize Russia is in fact, an amalgamation of a disparate range of peoples, beliefs and customs. In short, its history has been largely ignored and deserves to be told in the Spanish language.

The authors highlight that since some years, works in the social sciences that give a strategic role to the spatial dimension are showing a great interest in the world and that Latin America is no exception to this trend. This can be seen in the abundant scientific production in the region, under this approach, in contributions to the public and private policymakers or the consolidation of several journals.

This research is focused in three main aspects. First, it aims to present the research about the past and future of commercial geography, public policies regarding commercial geography inside the context of urban structures, linked to the advances in spatial analysis, oriented to tertiary activities in the intra–urban–space particularly in Mexican cities but particularly in the Toluca Metropolitan Area. The Second axis is related to studiy cases that focus on exploring the future of commercial geography within cities. The last objective of the work is related to the research and knowledge about the spatial organization and offers some elements to a better explanation about spatial organization of tertiary activities within the cities along to an abstract vocabulary and methodological resources.

EUCASA UNIVERSIDAD CATÓLICA DE SALTA

ARGENTINA EUCASA is the Catholic University of Salta Press, in Argentina. It was created in 1999. As a university press, it is a special department with an institutional organization chart which depends on the Research and Development Vice–rectorate and whose mission is to contribute to the university's main aim of generating knowledge through the encouragement of research and also of reporting the results by means of publications that constitute its catalogue, where the nature of the university's performance is necessarily reflected. Its main goal is to carry out a policy of publications which follows a systematic and continuous plan, developed with the simplicity that the performance of the academic activities demand. In the fulfillment of this goal, we must pay attention to two problems that focus, on one hand, on the production of titles, in which it is necessary to take into account the criteria of quality, originality, reliability, addressees as well as the marketing of the product, according to the addressees' profile—students, teachers, researchers, public in general, either local, regional, national or international. The difficulty and peculiarity of the press as par of a university lies in the fact that as such, it produces symbolic cultural goods which are, at the same time, products that are offered in the market and both matters must be taken into account at the moment of deciding to publish a book.

These issues, focus on communities of Argentina and other Latin American countries. Understanding the legitimacy of claims as well as the ethical and legal reasons which support them is essential for professionals who want to understand future challenges and necessity of using an inclusive and sustainable development.

“If your family life had to be represented on stage, what kind of play would it be?” asks Eric Berne founder and creator of Transactional Analysis who through his theory of life script proposes to unravel the role taht each person takes in life. This role has been configurated through the conscious and unconscious dictates received from the mother's womb and which men later interpret on the great stage of life, reciting their speech and relating to their couples, children, parents, friends, bosses, therapy partners and therapists in a parody of reality. In the second edition (reviewed and improved), the author develops a deep and didactic principle of Transactional Analysis, not only for students and professionals of mental health, to whom it is originally addressed, but also for all kinds of readers who might find it useful in their family, social, work and couple relationships and for their individual growth.

Like some other transcendent historical figures, Alfonsín grows over time. Demonstrations of popular affection during his funeral began that reappraisal, based on his ethical contribution as an upright politician, father of modern Argentine democracy and world defender of human rights. However, little is known about another of his international contributions: his strenuous efforts to make Argentina combine the remarkable technological advances prior to 1983 with a new and powerful commitment to peace, disarmament and global security. An epic peace fills this void with an exciting story, enriched with resources of a striking originality.

This book analyzes the cultural export process of tango between two Americas: South America (Argentina) and North America (United States). This dance found its place within the American society in some prominent cities of the United States during the first decades of the 20th century, soon after it had reached the main European capitals. Its success was immediate. The key to cultural success were two main elements: firstly, the society of the most vibrant cities of the United States was trying to adopt European fashions; secondly, tango provided a physical, sensitive and sensual connection that was not present in any other dance at that time. Far from the Buenos Aires underground, in the early 20th century, tango entered the main Broadway dancehalls to join the ballrooms of high–class New York.

The hypothesis proposed in this book states that TV series have an exclusive language of their own. To support his hypothesis, he carries out a thorough survey from a comparative and psychological approach. He suggests a journey through the history of TV series and proves that the true origin of serie's narrative can be traced back not to films, but to radio dramas. The book includes an analysis of emblematic series: Dexter, as a landmark of “psycho killers” series; Battlestar Galactica, landmark of science fiction series; and Lost, landmark of fantastic series. After theoretically developing the features of series language, theory is applied to a case analysis: Breaking Bad. The author also assesses how the Internet affects this field and what are the perspectives in view of the future.

The relationship between writing and truth, and between the latter and fiction, are central themes on Lacan's meditations, at least at the stage of the work we intend to reveal in this book. Now we have to decide whether, as readers of Lacan, we will have to apply in our reading exercise premises derived from Lacanian theory, or whether we will use another logic to define the relationship between fiction and truth, which would open the doors to a reading of Lacan from outside of reason that seems to guide the production of its teaching. What follows then is a reading, ours, supported by our trips, our learning, our teaching, and our experiences as analysands and analysts. It is not intended as mere erudition, only a discussion of terms and concepts, but holds a question relating to the clinical work of the analyst.

After almost half a century of exile, living and teaching in Mexico, Puerto Rico and Cuba, upon her return to Spain, Zambrano's work finally was fully recognized in all its excellence. She was awarded with prizes and a doctorate honoris causa. This book is a philosophical essay that addresses on María Zambrano's writings and thoughts.

Soledad Varea tells us about the abortion in legal terms in Ecuador that since 2004 has come a standstill subject when the Health Law was discussed. In this book, the author merges female voices from feminist movements, indigenous women, workers from the public sector, Opus Dei members and volunteer elite women. From their emotional standpoint, they talk about abortion, about their political work to legalize it or ban it, and about their feelings from having this procedure. Varea starts with an uncommon explanation in academic studies, one between state and feelings. She shows how the state materializes itself in actions of the people who carry out public policies while interacting with women immersed in an emotional situation. The author exposes that feelings are essential for feminisms in Ecuador just as much as for conservative pro–life women. Outrage for deaths and the role of affection towards the unborn children are central to the public debates. She offers a renewed focus for an academic reflection that is both compromised and captivating about the sharpest edge of debates on sexual and reproductive rights.

This book opens up, once more, the debate on this political phenomenon which is not exclusive from Ecuador but is more accentuated in this country than others in Latin America, appearing as if it were an element of Ecuadorean identity since its constitution as a republic. Differing from other studies, this book compares the situation of Ecuador with those in Venezuela and Uruguay explaining why does populism emerge in Ecuador and Venezuela but not in Uruguay. To determine populism causes, César Ulloa performs a deep analysis of the role that the elements of the political system have played in this three countries. His reflection originates when these countries shifted back to democracy. He reflects on the institutions, the political parties, the rules of the game, the relationship between the state power, democracy and political culture of population.

A brilliant analysis, flawlessly sustained, of the peculiar manners in which the Andean Indigenous Program contributed to insinuate thoughts and practices of development that penetrated the Andean states formation. The focus of the book opens a window to the transnational welfare state regimes that flourished by mid XX century and towards the technocratic devises that emerged around these regimes. The authors reveal some of the central processes that shaped indigenous population of the Andes—especially women—as objects of intervention, concern and improvement, and that made out of indigenous communities a space where external agents, local and global, cultivated their own professional expertise. This work will turn into mandatory reading for those who research the history of development, the gendered character of the state formation and citizenship or the administration of indigenous populations in America.

By the end of the 1990s and in one of the most unequal and inequitable regions of the world, a left and centre–left ideological and political cycle had taken in order to contain and prevent social risks to which the region had historically been used to it. Since then, and as well as the historical development, strategies and results were not uniform in each of the countries that experienced it. In the midst of a rather turbulent political and electoral scenario, which heralds the arrival of the right, coupled with the decline of raw material prices and the circumstances of international markets, it is likely that we are facing a reconfiguration of social welfare schemes, or perhaps, a depletion of left–wing models. The journal State & Commons has brought this Latin American and Caribbean reality to debate and considers it relevant to the international community, academics and civil society in general.

The six essays in this book address various dimensions of social movements from the classical theories of collective action and the'moments of madness' (Zolberg, 1972) that distinguish the heyday of protest cycles to the formation of transnational networks that seek to influence international governance institutions. They also examine the unsolved tensions in the academic world between global and globalizing approaches on one hand, and ‘area studies' on the other; between the difficult realities of the so–called ‘pink tide' countries in Latin America and the utopian dreams and future visions of thinkers and politicians who have fostered, guided and analysed it.

In the globalization context, overexploitation and the cycle of raw materials generate enormous challenges in terms of knowledge, management, implementation and evaluation of public policies of natural resources management in the Latin American region. To address the created inequities and inequalities, the governments have proposed a gradual change in public agendas that offer an orientation to public policy instruments with emphasis on social participation, democracy and the equitable distribution of wealth. Because these challenges, the journal State & Commons invited the Ecuadorian scientific and academic community to debate through relevant academic contributions. State & Commons hopes to renew interest in an analysis of public policies for natural resource management in the region through interdisciplinary debate and to motivate social action in decision–making.

“The book you hold in your hands, dear reader, is a doctoral thesis in philosophy, directed by Professor Jean Ladriére, PhD, and presented at the University of Louvain Belgium in December, 1972. The first thing you are going to run into is the long distance from the time that goes from the happy sixties to the troubled times we went through at the beginning of a new or so–called century. Of course, in the nervous and unsettling times we live, there are many people who, by contrast, are convinced that the world is going well! the title of this book is a world of ideas. The bare concept of “The word and the action” belongs to the most densely philosophical world. That is why I needed the subtitle “For a dialectic of liberation”, whose key takes us back to another era—that of the sixties and seventies—in which the now–old Marxism was still current. J. M–B

The first university radio stations in Latin America date from the second decade of the twentieth century, but their growth was only remarkable since the 70s. In the transition to the 21st century, university radio became a true communicative phenomenon, thanks to the appearance of online radio. Currently, there is a wide variety of radio proposals, marked by the type of institution to which they belong. Similarly, and unlike United States university radios, where students work with a high degree of autonomy, Latin–American university radio is characterized by more direct control from the institutions in which it operates. This book invites to reflect on the phenomenon of university radio—academically understudied in the region— from different points of view and different radio experiences in Colombia, Mexico, Costa Rica, Spain, and Germany, as well as their bets, limitations, and opportunities.

The development of the scientific field can be considered as a scenario under continuous construction. Throughout this constructive process, science has witnessed two processes that are sometimes perceived as distant and irreconcilable and sometimes complementary: on one hand, a tendency towards deep disciplinary specialization and, on the other hand, an interdisciplinary tendency. The debates and discussions surrounding this double process are still part of academic and intellectual life. There is no field in which they talk about it. These are discussions that are on the agenda. This characteristic on the scientific field enriches not only the reflection by the dynamics of science itself, but also by the role it plays in society. Especially in academic and training spaces, such as universities where academic communities encourage and give life to it.

This book presents the entire process that led to the development of a finite element model of the L4–L5–S1 segment, experimentally validated for biomechanical study of the human lumbar spine. In order to perform a more accurate validation of the model, in vitro experiments were carried out on segments L4–L4 and L5–S1 with gradual reduction method, a procedure that had only been applied to segment L4–L5, where significant differences were found in the range of motion (ROM) between segment L5–S1 and segment L4–L5. With experimental results, the finite elements model was calibrated adding step by step each one of the structures of the segment. Finally, a statistical analysis of the fibrous annulus was carried out in order to study the influence on the ROM of elastic constants of the fibers, the wedge angle and the ring area.

The systematization offered in this document refers to concrete work experiences with prison population of western Colombia cities, Cali, Santander de Quilichao and Puerto Tejada. Its purpose is to show the importance of the processes of resocialization that promotes self–reflection in each inmate, the narrative exercise of recognition of one's values and the discursive reconstruction of one's identity as a free person to shake off the heavy burden of social stigma of “ex convicted” by the judicial system. Without this perspective, it becomes difficult for the success of programs focused on humanization and resocialization, according to work, study and behavior.

With pedagogical clarity, professor Adalberto Ramón Valderrama Gerbasi presents Geometry in a captivating way through phenomena of nature and truly fantastic human achievements. He dedicates each chapter to a different subject: History and Development of Geometry; Greek Geometry; The Three Problems of Antiquity; Conics; Spirals and Rosaceae; Cyclical Curves ; Catenary and Normal Curves. The author explains in detail, in a simple and objective way, all chapters, avoiding the presentation of mathematical demonstrations, except when strictly necessary. It opens a door to the garden of geometric curiosities, providing the reader with information that arouses curiosity. This book makes that topics that were once feared by teachers, students, and beginners become nice and interesting. In this way, the study, understanding and learning of Geometry become easier.

What do contemporary philosophers think? Answering this question seems to be a peculiar and dramatic task. This happens for two reasons: the first one, because it is necessary to make a choice between the vast and brilliant minds of the contemporary philosophical scene; the second one, because it is interesting to know what these “contemporary philosophers” actually discuss in their theories and how they resonate in the non–philosophical world. The book presents the dialogue held over three years with Peter Singer, Daniel Dennett, John Searle, Hilary Putnam and Zygmunt Bauman. It's goal, far from finding a guiding thread among the authors, is to pass through some of their main ideas that have increasingly aroused a significant debate at the frontiers between ethics, conscience, language, reality and society.

The author has compiled, reorganized, reviewed and corrected his own production in order to offer a single but heterogeneous work. The book invites the reader to be part of those texts not only by reading them but also by giving them new meanings. Rodríguez Espada explains clinics in Music Therapy from an artistic point of view, specifically the Music. Because of that, like in a composition, his book is divided in three movements: the social event, the theory and the aesthetics. In the first movement, he explains music therapy clinics working in the community. The second movementm is the construction of his theory and in the third one Aesthetics justifies that theory.

Dr. Tyrrell may be honest and generous, but behind his agreeable green eyes, an opportunist is lurking. He never lets you know what he thinks. The sense that guides his existence is a kind of cynism. Julia Udoku is intelligent, but remains innocent. Her feelings have been dragged along the mud. She has a mission in her life and that mission has been revealed through a misterious and recurrent dream. “Paths” happens in a village without name, where the main characters are born, grow up and make themselves again. Martín González immerse us in Tyrrell's and Julia's lives; he makes us familiar with the paths they both walk. Action takes place around a chemist's shop and a house, but the house is not just that. It is the possibility to find the meaning to their pain and frustration. The novel is dramatic and sometimes, even ironic. Philosophical thoughts are gathered to produce a suspense story.

Where does the journey takes us? To unknown countries, to unpredictable territories. It starts like life itself, in any corner of the world and opens up to time and space. Those who came to Mexico from 1910 to 1938 are a great example of that. Some travelers—whose experience collects the present volume— scrupulously aligned themselves with the Mexican landscape and established coordinates to delimit differences between countryside and the city; the result of his observations was that, far from the city, in its surroundings or in its provinces, was the deep indigenous Mexico of large fields of corn and sugarcane, banana and coffee, a world that impressed them thoroughly.

Ecuador is one of the highest medicine consumer per capita in South America. Its pharmaceutical market has unique characteristics compared to the rest of the world: the local companies –both national and multinational– generate millions of dollars in registered trademark drugs, while the generic medicine reaches very low levels of use, making health a vulnerable right. This reality, where the vast majority of inhabitants seek medical attention through the Integral Public Health Network (RPIS), has motivated Universidad de Las Américas to publish these book that talks about productive strategies, the current situation and future of the Ecuadorian pharmaceutical industry. The Ecuadorian pharmaceutical market reflects the national panorama of health supply and demand, promoting a reflexive dialogue on the public policy of supply, registration, control and production of medicines in Ecuador.

In our countries, there is a lot of talk about millennials, but there is little research about it. For this reason, this book opens the possibility of understanding about this segment of young people, why the importance of understanding their actions and in addition, how does the change of this generation took place at the end of the 20th century and it came with the world's spare part.

The main purpose of this book is to present Kaiowá society in a comprehensible way to readers who are not acquainted with ethnology technical discussions. The book's first part brings information about kaiowá social organization, especially about family and extended family. Its second part tells about the humanization of space using ethnological data collected in previous researches, which are generally presented as cosmology, religion and social representation. Therefore, the book discusses issues concerning the theory of knowledge and the theory of kaiowá social relationship, which may be useful to researchers in many fields of study. The central themes of each chapter are developed with the objective to make clear how the flux of social life operates groups of practical and ritual knowledge intrinsically associated to the current kaiowá social formation.

This book aims at producing a discourse which allows us to think about artistic modern expressions in Campo Grande, a Brazilian city located in the state of Mato Grosso do Sul, through Lídia Baís' life story and her paintings. Lídia Baís' family aspects, her artistic life and, above all, her strong relation with religion are important to understand the subject covered in this book. The artist's work and life lead us to think not only about her story, but mainly about the history of a place and of a period that was in transition to modernity. Lídia Baís' life represents not only a particular story, but an entire universe of which women were part from 1920 to 1940.

When and how did yoga arrive to Brazil?, who were its first instructors?, how was yoga depicted in the first books published on this issue in the country, and what polemics arise? These questions and other matters—such as instructors and practitioners seeking to organize themselves in different ways and the strategies used by the media to picture and sell yoga—are answered and discussed in this book, unveiling points left unspoken during the last decades. The analysis of contemporary magazines covers (2006–2014) indicates the existence of discursive disputes and struggles for power in a very promising market that proposes from an ideal and health body to the salvation of the soul.

The publishing of Visión de los vencidos in 1959 was a milestone in the historiographic panorama of Latin America. This emblematic anthology presents for the first time, the testimonies about the Conquest of the Mesoamerican people written on their own hand and translated directly from Nahuatl to Spanish, as well as a profuse sampling of pictographic representations of the ancient codices that depict similar events. More than 50 years after its first edition, this classic work—translated into more than 15 languages—has enlarged the presence of these people in our intellectual landscape and keeps restoring faces and hearts of those who had lost them.

UNDEF LIBROS–EUDE UNIVERSIDAD DE LA DEFENSA NACIONAL

ARGENTINA The University of the Argentine Army Press (EUDE) was born with the purpose of showing the intellectual production of the academic units of the Army to the national and international levels. The editorial lines cover different topics, from general and military history, through geopolitics, technological developments and research, to the thinking of our most outspoken leaders. The deep content of the works developed have managed to awaken the interest of the general public. Punctually, “History” develops themes related to the evolution of war thinking from the first commanders, such as Xenophon, to the new wars of the 21st century, through the events that forged our independence, our national and territorial organization. The editorial line “Geopolitics” provides an analysis on the conflicts of interests that faced (and face) countries and nations across the globe. In the line “Technological developments” are framed essays that cover the evolution of weapons and materials that make the art of war. The line “Military thinkers” rescues milestones and people who revolutionized military leadership over time, marking, even today, the basic principles of it. Within “Próceres en palabras” the wording of our main men–at–arms is published, who in different situations said and wrote ideas that marked our history, making of them a true code of teachings that transcends until today, remaining as an example for the future . In “Investigations” are included all those academic works that serve to break down and think different perspectives of the art of war. With the development of its titles, EUDE has developed a collection of “Láminas para la Historia,” where the armed events are described, from the English invasions to the combats of the commandos in the Malvinas War. Through this time, far from being satisfied with the achievements, the EUDE sought greater challenges. In that sense, he adapted to new technologies and edited some of his titles in digital format and as an e–book. Another novel way is the line of audiobooks where the main thoughts of the words of the heroes are heard, as a contribution for those who prefer or need to listen rather than read. On the other hand, the EUDE also carries out different conferences and seminars on topics related to its publications aimed at different audiences, from primary school students to advanced professionals.

In the dawn of mankind, the knife was for the man an essential instrument for survival and everyday life. Over the centuries, its improvement and its use were linked to the appearance of iron and, much later, to the appearance of steel. Thus, daggers, stilettos, facones, daggers, among others, emerged. The bayonet, as a precursor of the modern combat knife, allows to converge its massive use from the First World War and its optimization during the Second. With the appearance of new materials used for its construction, knife applications were expanded and its efficiency and design were perfected. In this way, it evolved in the military field as a combat weapon and as a tool, and in other areas, such as hunting and collecting, it became a versatile weapon.

The purpose of this book is to present, in a systemic way, bases for a general theory of the copyright contract. Since the 19th century, intellectual property laws and treaties have focused on the static protection of the author, granting patrimonial and extra–patrimonial rights. However, in the current context, it is necessary to identify the rules that will allow the dynamic protection of the author, that is, the protection at the moment of negotiating and concluding contracts on the authorial rights that they have over their work. The author is a vulnerable subject, who requires special protection in the contractual field. The Latin American law is analyzed and the rules of copyright's general theory of the contract, are presented in an orderly manner.

Humberto Costantini's name wandered the neighborhoods of Buenos Aires in the sixties and seventies with a poetic air, its epicenter being an almost peripheral area of the city with no apparent literary traces—Villa Pueyrredón. Like Urondo, Conti, and Gelman, Costantini belongs to a generation of Argentine poets and narrators who expose social allegories by rubbing their lamp with a mixture of images that went without respite from the great epic to the loving daily routine. But Costantini who, for the reasons explained by Hernán Fontanet, is fully involved with all of them, needed the push of a scholar to review all the ramifications of his work, his roots well down into the city, being even a veterinarian by profession, but later taking the path of a pilgrim in an exile that is at the same time a source of lament and creation. From the prologue by Horacio González.

HERNÁN FONTANET

Degree in Literature from Universidad de Buenos Aires, a degree in Philology from Universidad Complutense de Madrid, and a PhD in Literature from the Universidad Autónoma de Madrid. He is based in the United States, has worked at Yale University and is a professor at Rider University, in the state of New Jersey. Much of his research focuses on the links between Argentine literature and exile, a relationship that he traces back to foundational writers such as Sarmiento and Esteban Echeverría, to the stories of outlaw gauchos, to Gardel's tangos and, above all, to the work of several poets of the second half of the twentieth century.

A literary, linguistic and historiographical event, this edition of La muerte del Pibe Oscar puts the reader in contact with the dense and turbulent underworld of early twentieth–century in Buenos Aires. Luis Contreras Villamayor, a jailer and ethnographer of the people he keeps and watches, reconstructs the story of one of the most famous crooks of his time. He narrates the life of this man with familiarity and empathy, explaining his fall into crime as a result of a ruthless childhood experience spent in the darkest corners of criminal institutions, precisely those that the author knows so closely. The great work of Oscar Conde adds value to Villamayor's extraordinary novel thanks to his scholarly contribution intended to explain its merits and make it intelligible: a contextual study on the work, its author and period, including explanatory notes of “lunfardo” terms, a glossary, and a valuable appendix with additional texts written by Villamayor, by Lila Caimari

Inhabiting the horizon is the title of the second book by Emiliano Bertoglio, in this case in co–authorship with the riocuartense plastic artist Chalo Irenne. The text is literary and brings together different genres ranging from the short story to the essay. Next, we include some words included in the epilogue of the work, by Martín Díaz: “[…] the rescue of other experiences of the world, of the generation of other human links and of relationship—or of re–ligation—with the nature that Emiliano Bertoglio exhorts involves a way of denaturing or of beginning to unlearn—as the author points out—a way of life that ultimately leads to planetary destruction. Thus, in the face of the monumental civilizational crisis unfolding in our present, critical thinking as well as art—as interpellative modes of historical and social reality—allow one to imagine or map possible ‘lines of flight'.”

One of the main topics in the history of art has been the tension generated between the fine arts and popular art—between art and craft—caused by the intervention of art during the Enlightenment. This strain has been poorly studied in Mexico, despite being one of the countries that contributed to the vanguards due to its efforts to recover the popular forms (Posada, muralism, etc.), as part of the aesthetic revolution that came after the armed conflict of the early 1900’s. This book is an approximation to this history of the art and popular arts from a revision of expressions and artistic moments in Mexican history—from the “smiling faces” to Posada, passing through the first Popular Art Exhibition to an analysis of cultural consumption—with the goal of contributing to a wider debate on cultural history.

This book offers a critical introduction to most of the theories of culture in the social sciences, as well as a proposal by the author—who frames the theory of culture in a general theory of social action, which he exposes using a lot of examples to illustrate its usefulness for research. In this way, it satisfies a long-term need of those who, at different levels of study and from different thematic and disciplinary perspectives, are interested in the study of political culture, youth culture, organizational culture, cultural identity, national culture, popular culture, religious culture and a long etcetera.

UNIVERSIDAD AUTÓNOMA DE CHIAPAS MEXICO Due to the importance that research has in the development of society, in 2006, with a multidisciplinary and integral vision, an editorial program was developed and implemented to disseminate and spread in an effective and pertinent manner the works carried out by university members, anchored in the lines of generation and application of knowledge (LGAC) of the Academic Bodies or individually, carried out by professors–researchers attached to the schools, faculties, centers, and institutes. Also, to promote scientific, technological and humanistic research so that researchers could advance towards the recognition of the state and national research systems (SEI and SIN) and in the consolidation of their Academic Bodies. For this purpose, the editorial program “Collection of University Texts for the Strengthening of Academic Bodies” was created; coordinated by the Scientific Dissemination Unit of the General Directorate of Scientific Research. This program selects, evaluates, and approves the university texts supported by the Network of the National System of Researchers and academics of recognized prestige with the mechanism “Double blind” which allows to take care of the quality and relevance of the publications, establishing a policy of arbitration by academic pairs external to the institution. In 2014, the digital modality was introduced, along with information and communication technologies (ICT), editing titles, and optimizing the financial resources invested in production, without undermining the quality of the edition and the benefit of dissemination of technological and humanistic scientific knowledge. In 2015 the Autonomous University of Chiapas is integrated for the first time into the ALTEXTO National Network, which houses more than 50 university publishers, being selected with 4 university degrees from the editorial catalog of the General Directorate of Research and Postgraduate Studies, at the Ibero–American University Book Fair (SILU) in Medellín, Colombia.

A book of great importance to understand the scientific production of the academics from different research centers and institutions of higher education in Chiapas, related to the indigenous world. In this book, the reader will practice the study and discussion of the academic and indigenous horizon based on the concepts of community and land. In this sense, approaching the analysis from this perspective implies a change of representation, which goes from harmony to conflict, from the stable and static to the dynamic and recognition of the existence of power relations and struggles between participants of social sciences in Chiapas and the indigenous community.

Communication processes have evolved throughout history. Nothing compares to the cultural impact produced by the emergence of language, writing and information technology, highlighting its contingency, defined as an innovation that has profoundly changed the magnitudes and direction of cultural evolution. Humankind will never be grateful enough to all those who deposit in the digital reservoirs the knowledge they generate, making them accessible to any audience that starts in the necessary competencies and which today, we will call Digital Literacy. To leave in the network, is to make transparent other aspects of the natural or social world that we have investigated.

UNIVERSIDAD AUTÓNOMA DE SINALOA MEXICO Mission: To publish efficiently texts of excellent quality, disseminate science, culture and knowledge generated by our researchers, use creativity and tolerance to the writing of others. The editorial direction of the Autonomous University of Sinaloa, thanks to the strength of its human resources and state–of–the–art infrastructure, has become the largest disseminator of literary and academic texts in the country, supported by a conscious central administration committed to the promotion of reading. The publication of knowledge generated by university researchers whose costs are still borne by the institutions that support their research continues to represent a significant majority of the editions. The co–publishing agreements with public and private publishers have increased to raise bibliographic production both in quality and variety of themes and for our books to cross.

At the beginning of this book, Jaime Labastida warns us about the memorable and already distant reading of an epistle of Captain Francisco de Aldana, in which the young soldier expressed his desire to lay down his arms to devote himself to study and meditation, which he was prevented by death. Fragments of that composition will emerge in the poems of Atmospheres, negations as props to establish a transtemporal dialogue with the ill–fated author about geographies of the ego and the vicissitudes of the poetic office. The reader is confronted with a series of poems that question themselves. The first part's descriptive passages will be internalized to give way to ontological reflection. In the second half, he questions the veracity of poetic memory, a strategy that makes the statement more complex, as if it had not really happened, would have happened otherwise or was just a dream.

In the present work, the Colombian Armando Silva updates his theory of imaginaries, presented now as aesthetic facts and as categories of changing perception and hierarchized. In his careful argumentation, from different disciplines, he discovers that the social imaginary is not a fixed image, but is hierarchized when it exists and this can occur within a triadic model that is presented from the absence of empirical reference in social perception, but it is experienced until the imagined matches the external reality.

The period of the Late Antiquity in which Irenaeus wrote his monumental anti–agnostic agreement is a privileged period for those interested in history and the religion phenomenology. The author analyses here the controversy of St. Irenaeus with Marcion and the Valentinians from the intuitions of “time” and “event”, with the considerations the agnostic writings deserve for their original Christian metaphysics, which was so many times insulted by the heresiologists who show not to have known them enough.

The complexity of Latin American political history does not admit selfreferential localisms, and there is a dissimilar development of events and people in it. For this reason, the author's cultural–political view of the protagonists, situations and processes of the late nineteenth century, throughout the twentieth and early twenty–first century, allows us to understand the very varied, tragic and magical Latin American reality, whose international order is still not clearly defined and in which the tumor trilogy of caudilism, jacobism and militarism prevents its affirmation in modernity and progress.

Will Trump's be a different populism from Obama's populism, but populism after all?, will the billionaire Trump have the courage and the efficiency to break the umbilical cord of the great American oligopolies with the political elite of the greatest power in the world? Everything remains to be seen. The strengthening of political democracy demands, more than ever today, in the United States and throughout the so–called Western World the support of moral reason. It demands as protagonists in public spaces in a leading role, those honest citizens who with their bluff, urgently sought Diogenes, the philosopher who detached from material things to excess, who lived in a barrel.

The discipline of archaeology is a product of historical contexts, modernity and colonialism.

They cover several topics, from the political implications of African archeology to the repudiated histories of black co– workers, and from heritage constructions to a postcolonial politics of memory and identity. Although they are centered in colonial and postcolonial Africa, they speak to global worlds of practice in archaeology and to the entanglements of race, power and knowledge.

This text outlines a method of arranging and exhibiting visual archives based on the notion of montage, using elements of methodological approaches of Aby Warburg and Walter Benjamín. The correspondences drawn between the historical practices of the two authors are used to call attention to their shared method to understand relations among archival elements and temporalities that can be established based on those relations. This suggests the possibility of producing a montage made up of images produced and circulated in different contexts, with an iconographic motif consisting on the abuses of language and alluding to relations among memory, violence, and silence, which may be used to establish correspondences between the different periods of violence in Colombia.

Thanks to the power of modern medicine, we now live to very advanced ages, leading to a high probability of facing chronic and incurable diseases such as many forms of cancer, dementia, and diabetes. These diseases cause a great deal of physical suffering in addition to the virtual loss of identity in case of different forms of dementia. At the end of life, however, medicine can become an enemy that prolongs suffering, rather than an ally of the patient's health and free will. Voluntary death, if undertaken for coherent reasons and in keeping with a person's values and lifestyle, can also be one of the benefits of modernity. In discussing alternative ways of dying, the author distances herself from traditional psychology and psychiatry and suggests rational suicide as a possible option, not as a response to mental illness or depression, but as a considered response to the common experiences of terminal illness and death at an advanced age.

UNIVERSIDAD DEL VALLE PROGRAMA EDITORIAL COLOMBIA The publishing activity at the Universidad del Valle has been present throughout its history, although in the first decades it was carried out independently by each school. Since then, publications, both in books and specialized journals, have supported teaching, and accompanied the professional practice, providing basic and updated bibliography, guaranteeing access to knowledge beyond the classroom, putting new ideas and knowledge into circulation, and expanding and consolidating the cultural horizon of society. In the 1950s and 1960s the university took on a first central editorial project: the Library of the University of Valle, which had as one of its goals the publication of unpublished works by the professors of the university and “the reissue of ancient regional books of enduring historical and artistic validity,” with critically annotated editions of these texts. Thanks to this work, not only new works are published, but also works such as El Alferez Real by Eustaquio Palacios, the novel María and Las Poesías by Jorge Isaacs, and the literary studies of Rafael Maya are recovered, a labor that will allow the acknowledgement and dissemination of major works of Colombian history and culture. The current Publishing program of the Universidad del Valle was created on January 12, 1996 (Resolution of the Rectorship No. 250), with the aim of having a broad– spectrum university press. In this first stage (1996–2002), the publishing program issued more than 120 books. In the spirit of continuous improvement, it was redefined by the Resolution of the Rectorship No. 1512 and by the Agreement 005 of April 29, 2002 and Agreement 006 of October 5, 2004 of the Superior Council. Currently, the publishing program combines paper publication with modern technological support for the development of digital information systems. It also supports the scientific journals of the University, where production is gathered in all fields of knowledge (science, art, culture). Additionally, it distributes Entre Libros, a catalogue of new publications free of charge.

From the historical–philosophical perspective created by Michel Foucault (archeological genealogy), this book aims to discover a particular historical archive in the Colombian and Latin American history, and to narrate those infamous lives that had suffered the practices of that archive. This book is about the “minor” history, no smaller and unimportant, but a history of the “infamous men”. It is simultaneously a testimony of the “historical archive” and an “anthology of existences”. This book examines in detail how the nosopolitics is an eugenic program of racial regeneration of the lower class, imposed since the late nineteenth century, exercising in harmony with the indulgent collaboration of the scientific knowledge.

Afro–Colombian organizations: A sociological approximation is one of the most complete studies conducted in the last years in Colombia on this field. From a socio–historical perspective, crossing race, class and ethnic categories and using Niklas Luhmann organization concept, these organizations origins, structures, repertoires, leadership and meaning frames are thoroughly analyzed. A crucial question in contemporary Colombia is whether there is a social movement of Afro–Colombian people. One of the most relevant conclusions of the book is that from the promulgation of Law 70 of 1993—although not exclusively—the afro organizational framework is structured in a wide, heterogeneous and complex universe, that differs in its “nature”, objectives, organizational forms, formalization degree, leadership, scale, capacity to interpellate the state and to deploy collective actions of different order.

In the Caribbean shores of Colombia, it converges the ancestral customs of African Art, music, dances, costumes, masks, decoration and cars. The Carnival of Barranquilla, oral and intangible heritage of the humanity, is one the greatest expressions of cultural and aesthetic richness. The popular parties have been a melting pot for the miscegenation: the magic–religious thought of the oral African remembrances is merged with art, establishing formulas of action for the communication of the contemporary culture. Through photography and critical texts, this book unveils the countenance rites of the carnival of Barranquilla. It combines the face and vestige, showing the cultural circumstances that converge in the territory. This constitutes the feature which synthetizes the condition of the Caribbean man.

Patents were invented to protect, for a certain amount of time, creators and inventors in order to keep the competition from copying their products, which would otherwise keep them from earning enough profit in return for their investments. However, what happens when large corporations research and development is based on existing biological resources which native people and local communities know about and use in traditional practices? This book, which includes contributions of renowned experts, analyzes disagreements and conflicts regarding this issue and how international norms regarding intellectual property come up to defend biodiversity and the distribution of benefits derived from it. To find these points of balance, the book suggests changes in the culture of patent interpretation and modifications to the regulations regarding conservation and sustainability of biodiversity. It concludes by proposing a new public policy.

What will make Latin American professionals competitive in the future? Scholars from four countries in Latin America— Chile, Colombia, Ecuador and Peru—take on the task of identify the portfolio of skills that professionals should have in order to get ahead in their working future. Rigorous and clear in their methods, the authors analyze the assessments that 81 experts in human resources and business administration give regarding thirty skills grouped into six dimensions: personal development, cognitive, social, sustainable, technological and global, according to the model the authors propose. Their findings, presented in this book, reveal areas of agreement but also nuances and variations which can be explained by the diversity of Latin American realities and environments.

Frequently, companies which seem promising do not take off. They usually work for a period of time, but they close or die without having ever reached a point at which they begin to grow or be profitable. What is the reason to this? In “With the scent of flowers”, Rogelio León develops the “equation for success” concept which, as he says, has little to do with science and a lot to do with common sense. He draws from an analysis of one of the most impressive industries in the agricultural sector, the cut flower industry, in three countries which have notable production on a global scale. According to the author, successful companies share certain characteristics which make them viable and moreover, these characteristics give them elevated levels of competitiveness. By the end of this book, readers will be able to carry out this same analysis for their current or future industries.

As a result of Brexit, the study and evaluation of regional integration agreements has intensified. To many analysts, this fact, together with renegotiation of NAFTA and the US withdrawal from the Trans–Pacific Partnership (TPP), means we are now witnessing a decline in the integrationist process. This book, demonstrates the dynamic nature of regional integration and its importance to the economic and social development of the countries. Since Asia now leads the process in the global context, methods of cooperation between this continent, Latin America and Caribbean are explained, as well as programmatical guidelines for the diversification of the region's foreign policy in a way that its participation in the new structure of the global system might improve. In times of uncertainty, alternatives are proposed to Latin American and Caribbean marginalisation in global governance.

Law and Visual Arts professionals need to understand how artistic concepts are interpreted by law. These subjects have therefore been grouped together in a discipline known as Art Law, which regulates legal situations surrounding works of art. This text, seeks to apply internationally–analysed concepts in this area to the Colombian context. In order to do this, it begins by using copyright as a tool to understand the object of this discipline's protection. It goes on to analyse difficulties of contemporary artistic expression as artistic appropriation regarding copyright. Finally, it approaches the subject of the art market, to identify and analyse legal relations that exist among its participants. This is all done with the purpose of facilitating work of those professionals who are related with visual arts and who need to understand how law is applied to different artistic expressions.

This research studies the responsibility of the employer on damages caused by work–related stress that puts at risk life and health of workers as a consequence of the non–fulfilment of safety obligations by which employers are legally bound. Both in France and Colombia, the employer's fulfilment of safety obligations is the parameter to legal qualification of an employer's responsibility in industrial accidents and occupational diseases. Similarly, in both countries, the main objective of the employer safety obligation is the prevention of all industrial risks that may cause accidents and occupational diseases, which materialises in the execution of legal duties that aim to avoid risk or reduce its effects.

This book takes us into the enigmatic feminine sensibility, conforming a mixture between classic and contemporary as proof that sensitivity and poetry are three–dimensional animals. This is a book of sad, suicidal, crazy women. A cry that is not a claim or demand. It is, likewise, a brief declaration of loneliness, of emptiness, of abandonment and–without a doubt–of the altars of depression and of a great anguish. Coming from the past, the women who inspire these poems fully describe our contemporaneity.

From the first paragraph of Love in Time of Cholera, Gabriel García Márquez gives this book a name for its posterity: “It was inevitable: the smell of bitter almonds always reminded him of the destiny of the opposed love relationships”. On several occasions the work of García Márquez has been analyzed from multiple disciplines and theoretical frameworks for decades, however, this book glances at how exceptional and suggestive it is when literature and forensic medicine converge. The work includes the analysis of twenty–five Nobel Prize works with variations or repetitions in some of them. The author delves into the cases with legal medicine criteria and analyzes characters and motivations that led them to carry out their crimes. Thus, this book constitutes an attractive and innovative fusion between legal medicine and literature.

With the issuing of her DNI in 2013, the State recognized Luana's self–perceived identity. I'm a little girl, I'm a princess ends on that milestone, in what seemed to be the end of that difficult story of love and fights for rights. Free butterflies takes us out of that enchantment. That first part was only the beginning of Luana's life, of the author's own transformation and of the long and ongoing journey that society has ahead. The new book picks up with Luana's entry to primary school and once again fills us with mixed emotions. We are moved by her growth and we are shocked by how hard it is for many people to understand and respect differences. This second part of her story also shows Gabriela Mansilla as a leader in the struggle for expansion recognition of the rights to identity.

Throughout the volumes the reader will come across the exchanges, the shared readings and the common problems between the different thinkers. And they will notice how the adjective ‘Latin American', which at first sight only refers to a geographical location, becomes the center of the question.

UNIVERSIDAD PERUANA DE CIENCIAS APLICADAS PERU Editorial UPC was created by Universidad Peruana de Ciencias Aplicadas to disseminate and make the knowledge generated by its faculty, collaborators, graduates, and other members of the university community available to a larger audience. Hence, it contributes to the development of education, sciences, and culture for the benefit of society. Today, there are authors from different universities and specialties; thus, we seek to foster and enrich the knowledge and contributions to the academic community. We wish to continue with this practice and, in so doing, strengthen our publishing house's core motivation: making valuable and useful knowledge visible and available for the development of the different members of society. The motto of our Publishing House is summarized in this phrase: “We share knowledge.” In addition to that, it should be emphasized that Editorial UPC was the first Peruvian university press to publish the digital versions of its books and, currently, it is developing an open access collection under this modality. Publications, organized by collections, series, and topics, may also be purchased and distributed by print–on–demand.

Fifty cases of crises examined meticulously, from fatal accidents, ecological disasters, food contamination, service collapse, and fraud accusations to computer attacks, citizen protests, adverse press, hostile networks, and regulatory threats. A wide and varied repertoire of situations that people and top officers faced in the real world, from which—in some cases—they arose successful and in others they just didn't. 50 autopsias de crisis is an indispensable book for those who hold positions of maximum responsibility in organizations, be they managers or top officers, since they will be the ones called to finally decide what to do and what to say in a crisis. This is also true for their own teams, be they operations, logistics, administration, communications, human resources, legal, or security. In the end, the shock wave will reach them all… and they will be required to synchronize their greatest efforts to neutralize it.

Searching for more translation professionals who wants to learn terminology of their own profession and to apply it in their everyday work, the renowned Peruvian translators Mary Ann Monteagudo Medina and Rosa Luna García propose this monolingual Spanish dictionary to consolidate and make professionals become aware of the discipline vocabulary. Throughout the translator's education, the terminology taught is basically traductological or pedagogical in nature; therefore, El Diccionario para profesionales de la traducción appears to close a gap in the daily praxis, where many professionals use scarce terminology or do not know this practical vocabulary. Thus, this dictionary comprises 1,031 terms properly coded by semantic fields and accompanied by contexts, references and notes, so the reader is able to understand the composition and importance of each term in the index of words. With this new publication, the authors, who previously published Diccionario socioprofesional del traductor, propose developing a greater awareness of the terminology in the profession and expanding the professionals' vocabulary and better performance at work.

Between the years 1980 and 2000, Peru experienced the worst internal armed conflict in its republican history. At the foot of the Apu Razuhuillca, eight journalists and their guide were killed on January 26, 1983 at the hands of local settlers; however, little is known about the 135 peasants of Uchuraccay killed iduring months and years by Sendero Luminoso and the Armed Forces. Franz Krajnik proposes, with this documentary photographic essay, to explore the pain of absence in Uchuraccay from a personal and sincere vision. The author presents a look in which it is not possible to separate the pain that invades the inhabitants of this place; however, this environment has been given a new meaning to everyday life. There is a sense of common work, struggle, and love among the villagers that drives the development of their community. Today, the community of Uchuraccay rises from the ashes to tell how it coexists with pain.

A writer begins to work in the police section from an important newspaper, at the time when the newspapers represent the holy word, the voice that formulates the final verdict of a society before itself, as if printed paper were the place where monuments were erected or someone was sentenced to hell. Such power is relative to that time, and the writer arrives with the mission of participating in a process of modernization; when the old habits can be questioned, someone must bear witness of a dying era and the beginning of a new one, a story less committed to the powers of the day and more faithful to one's own perception of the world. Then, this is, a journey from where writing the world of the police and criminals “job” begins, crossed by the literary influences and experiences of the chroniclers who made history with clay.

The “critical” adjective refers, on its part, to the attempt to emphasize a reflexive tone and committed to the object of study. That is to say, whenever the theories summoned challenge, in their multiple articulations to the writing, she tries to take charge of such provocation. The subjective component is given, basically, because the presentation of the different topics and their relationships is organized based on the needs of understanding of the author. These needs have been continuously consulted by a whole series of voices coming from the work of the chair, contact with the students, research activity and daily life.

The thesis of the epistemological rupture and the thesis of continuity between the young and the adult Marx share the supposition that it is in the Marxian theoretical production where the constitution of historical materialism is defined. However, Mazora offers an alternative thesis in which through a meticulous work, it shows that in Capital Marx takes from Engels substantive references to develop his theory. Therefore his thesis could be summarized in the formula Young Engels, teacher–Young Marx, disciple.

The contributions of this book goes beyond the concepts of victims and victimizers and reveal that repression is not the explanatory element of every action or inaction of the participants in this dark period. The text offers an additional focus to analyze the mosaic of expressions of conformism, indifference, adaptation, adherence to the prevailing regime or opposition to it. In addition to the contribution to the studies of contemporary civil society, it helps to rethink the links that clubs established with political authorities in several dimensions.
