Construir la paz en las fronteras internas
Con una perspectiva interdisciplinaria, que combina análisis desde la sociología, la antropología, la geografía, la ciencia política y la economía agraria (entre otros campos del conocimiento), este libro propone estudiar los procesos de construcción de paz en las “fronteras internas”. El concepto que aquí se plantea articula los estudios regionales previos para el caso de Colombia con las nuevas literaturas que hacen hincapié en los fenómenos de las fronteras. Esta mirada ayuda a analizar los modos de construcción de paz desde perspectivas interdisciplinarias que tienen en cuenta procesos históricos, socio-espaciales, políticos, ambientales, económicos e institucionales. S...
El posacuerdo en Colombia
El presente libro se basa en las presentaciones realizadas en el taller “Repensando los Cercamientos en Colombia desde un Contexto Regional y Global. El papel del Territorio, la Colonialidad y la Temporalidad”, llevado a cabo en la Universidad del Rosario. Los textos enriquecidos por los intercambios y los debates que se dieron durante el mismo, así como por la escritura de cada uno de los capítulos en diálogo con los comentarios y las sugerencias de los editores de este volumen. Los Acuerdos de Paz constituyen un hito que marca un antes y un después, una hendidura en el tiempo histórico de las sociedades. A partir del análisis detenido de casos, actores y procesos específicos y distintivos, los capítulos que integran este libro coinciden en que el tiempo de “posacuerdo” que se abre después de la firma de los acuerdos de paz se sobreimprime a una realidad social, territorial y temporal heterogénea y desigual. Reponer analíticamente el carácter situado y, por lo mismo cambiante, del devenir del posacuerdo constituye uno de los desafíos centrales de este libro.
La Colombia del posacuerdo
En 2014, cuando la negociación entre el Estado colombiano con las Fuerzas Armadas Revolucionarias de Colombia (FARC) tomaba rumbos tan interesantes como problemáticos, un grupo de investigadores lideró una alianza estratégica con docentes de distintas áreas disciplinares y de diversas universidades, con el fin de iniciar un proyecto editorial de largo aliento que se concebía más como un "programa de investigación" y cuyo objetivo consistía en aportar estudios y reflexiones sobre los retos que, como sociedad, tenemos en la construcción de paz y en la tramitación no violenta de nuestros conflictos socioculturales, políticos y económicos. Desde esta dinámica, el proyecto editorial...

Understanding Biplots
Biplots are a graphical method for simultaneously displaying two kinds of information; typically, the variables and sample units described by a multivariate data matrix or the items labelling the rows and columns of a two-way table. This book aims to popularize what is now seen to be a useful and reliable method for the visualization of multidimensional data associated with, for example, principal component analysis, canonical variate analysis, multidimensional scaling, multiplicative interaction and various types of correspondence analysis. Understanding Biplots: • Introduces theory and techniques which can be applied to problems from a variety of areas, including ecology, biostatistics, ...

The Divine Boys
From acclaimed Colombian author Laura Restrepo comes a prize-winning novel inspired by a true crime that shattered a community and exposed the dark recesses of toxic masculinity and privilege. Immune to the consequences of immorality, five privileged young men in Bogotá bond over a shared code: worship drugs and drink, exploit women, and scorn the underclass. As males, they declare the right to freedom of pleasure. As friends, only disloyalty to each other is forbidden. When a little girl from the slums disappears, the limits of a perverse and sacred bond will be tested in ways none of them could have imagined. Hauntingly true, this daringly told work of fiction explores the tragic dynamic between genders, social classes, and victim and victimizer, and between five men whose intolerable transgressions will shake the conscience of a country.
A Tale of the Dispossessed/La Multitud Errante
From the acclaimed author of "The Dark Bride" comes a new novella published in a bilingual English/Spanish edition.
Newton's Football
In the bestselling tradition of Freakonomics and Scorecasting comes a clever and accessible look at the big ideas underlying the science of football.

In Newton’s Football, journalist and New York Times bestselling author Allen St. John and TED Speaker and former Yale professor Ainissa Ramirez explore the unexpected science behind America’s Game. Whether it’s Jerry Rice finding the common ground between quantum physics and the West Coast offense or an Ivy League biologi...
Leopard in the Sun
In Laura Restrepo's stunning novel, a feud between two Colombian drug families escalates into a bloody, high-stakes war that will leave no one in its path untouched. The Barragáns and the Monsalves are rival clans, each steeped in wealth and power, each subject only to laws of their own making. The similarities end there. While the Barragáns, headed by the brutal Nando, remain tied to the ancient traditions, the Monsalves grapple with whether or not to follow Mani, their charismatic and conflicted leader, into a modern age in which even fewer rules apply. As both clans ponder the profits they might reap from an expanding global cocaine trade, Nando and Mani are faced with the consequences of their violent pasts--and forced, by their disillusioned women and the prices on their heads, to reckon with the possibility that nothing will be left once all their bullets have found their targets. Rife with sensual detail, this epic story of lust, betrayal, and revenge is as timeless as interfamily conflict and as immediate as today's news.
