Salud global, sistemas sanitarios y respuesta a la pandemia COVID-19

En esta publicación podemos encontrar una interesante reflexión sobre la salud global como un campo de conocimiento. En la primera parte se plantean cuatro perspectivas analíticas, considerando aportes de las Ciencias sociales, la Economía y las Ciencias de la complejidad, al debate sobre la globalización y la salud colectiva durante la pandemia. En la segunda parte se presentan los análisis de las respuestas de seis sistemas de salud a los retos derivados de la aparición y diseminación mundial del SARS-CoV-2 desde diciembre de 2019, hasta mayo de 2020. El propósito fue comprender los procesos que constituyen esos sistemas sanitarios frente a la COVID-19 y a partir de allí, elaborar un análisis crítico de su desempeño.

Amulet

A tour de force, Amulet is a highly charged first-person, semi-hallucinatory novel that embodies in one woman's voice the melancholy and violent recent history of Latin America. Amulet is a monologue, like Bolano's acclaimed debut in English, By Night in Chile. The speaker is Auxilio Lacouture, a Uruguayan woman who moved to Mexico in the 1960s, becoming the "Mother of Mexican Poetry," hanging out with the young poets in the cafés and bars of the University. She's tall, thin, and blonde, and her favorite young poet in the 1970s is none other than Arturo Belano (Bolano's fictional stand-in throughout his books). As well as her young poets, Auxilio recalls three remarkable women: the melancho...

Mosaic Landscapes and Ecological Processes

This series presents studies that have used the paradigm of landscape ecology. Other approaches, both to landscape and landscape ecology are common, but in the last decade landscape ecology has become distinct from its predecessors and its contemporaries. Landscape ecology addresses the relationships among spatial patterns, temporal patterns and ecological processes. The effect of spatial configurations on ecological processes is fundamental. When human activity is an important variable affecting those relationships, landscape ecology includes it. Spatial and temporal scales are as large as needed for comprehension of system processes and the mosaic included may be very heterogeneous. Intell...
