Transformando la escuela: comunidades de aprendizaje
Las comunidades de aprendizaje hacen posible esa escuela que muchos soñaron: un lugar donde los alumnos estaban motivados para aprender, donde la implicación de los padres iba más allá de la participación en las aulas, donde los mayores ayudaban a los más pequeños...
Performing the US Latina and Latino Borderlands
In this interdisciplinary volume, contributors analyze the expression of Latina/o cultural identity through performance. With music, theater, dance, visual arts, body art, spoken word, performance activism, fashion, and street theater as points of entry, contributors discuss cultural practices and the fashoning of identity in Latino/a communities throughout the US. Examining the areas of crossover between Latin and American cultures gives new meaning to the notion of "borderlands." This volume features senior scholars and up-and-coming academics from cultural, visual, and performance studies, folklore, and ethnomusicology.

Knights on the Frontier
The kings of Castile maintained a personal cavalry guard through much of the fifteenth century, consisting of practicing Muslims and converts to Christianity. This privileged Muslim elite provides an interesting case-study to propose new theories about voluntary conversion from Christianity to Islam in the Iberian Peninsula, as well as the ways of assimilation of such a group into the local and courtly environments where they lived thereafter. Other subjects involved are the transformation of royal armies from feudal companies to regimented, professional forces including a well-trained cavalry, which in Castile was formed partly by these knights. Their descendants had to endure the changing policies conveyed by Isabel and Fernando, which increased discriminatory habits towards converts in Castilian society.

Drawing on the authors' detailed analyses, the book describes twenty-three policies and programs that youth development experts agree are the basis of a quality youth development portfolio, from early childhood development programs to parent training to cash transfers for positive behaviors.

Innovation in Pharmacy: Advances and Perspectives. September 2018
This book contains the summaries of the "Innovation in Pharmacy: Advances and Perspectives" that took place in Salamanca (Spain) in September 2018. The early science of chemistry and microbiology were the source of most drugs until the revolution of genetic engineering in the mid 1970s. Then biotechnology made available novel protein agents such as interferons, blood factors and monoclonal antibodies that have changed the modern pharmacy. Over the past year, a new pharmacy of oligonucleotides has emerged from the science of gene expression such as RNA splicing and RNA interference. The ability to design therapeutic agents from genomic sequences will transform treatment for many diseases. The...
Botellón
El botellón es una reunión masiva de jóvenes, en espacios abiertos de libre acceso, para combinar y beber la bebida que han adquirido previamente en comercios, escuchar música y hablar. Se trata de un tipo de conflicto nuevo. Tradicionalmente el foco de los conflictos ha venido determinado por la producción (lucha de clases) o por las creencias sociales (nacionalismos, conflictos religiosos); sin embargo, el del botellón se enmarca de lleno en el ámbito del consumo, que es el principal factor de agrupación y creación de identidades en la sociedad contemporánea. En ese sentido podemos hablar de un conflicto postmoderno, un divertimento social. Uno de esos conflictos que forman parte...
