Rethinking Sustainability Towards a Regenerative Economy
This open access book is based on work from the COST Action RESTORE - REthinking Sustainability TOwards a Regenerative Economy, and highlights how sustainability in buildings, facilities and urban governance is crucial for a future that is socially just, ecologically restorative, and economically viable, for Europe and the whole planet. In light of the search for fair solutions to the climate crisis, the authors outline the urgency for the built environment sector to implement adaptation and mitigation strategies, as well as a just transition. As shown in the chapters, this can be done by applying a broader framework that enriches places, people, ecology, culture, and climate, at the core of...
Feminist Critical Literacy
This book explores, as one of the priorities of the feminist agenda in the 21st century, feminist education and awareness in pre-service and in-service teacher training. Although feminism is constantly present in political discourse and social media, it is not examined sufficiently in the classroom. This situation means that students approach feminism through media culture, lacking the feminist knowledge necessary to teach disciplinary knowledge from the feminist perspective. Feminist theory, as a critical theory, provides teacher training based on the formation of critical-creative thinking and the resolute interpretation of the relevant social issues of the world in which we live. We under...

Aprender en la Universidad en un mundo volátil, incierto, cambiante y ambiguo
APRENDER EN LA UNIVERSIDAD EN UN MUNDO VOLÁTIL... VICA, el acrónimo de Volátil, Incierto, Complejo y Ambiguo es un término surgido de la teoría de la gestión empresarial en la década de los años 80 muy utilizado en la actualidad en todos los sectores para definir los nuevos estados de la vida social y política. La Universidad, todo su ecosistema y las condiciones de aprendizaje, no es ajena a la velocidad con la que se suceden los cambios en direcciones cambiantes, a la dificultad para predecir el futuro incierto, a la complejidad de las fuerzas que nos afectan, y al significado cada vez más ambiguo de los sucesos que vivimos. Por eso los autores de esta obra se proponen que, docen...

El apoyo a la formación e innovación para la excelencia docente constituye un eje estratégico de la Universidad de Sevilla. En esta línea, la Facultad de Ciencias de la Educación junto con el Centro de Estudios Universitarios Cardenal Spínola-CEU y el Centro Universitario de Osuna desarrolla las Jornadas de Innovación Docente, como un espacio donde brindar al profesorado una doble oportunidad de aprender y difundir.

Así pues, esta obra ofrece un sólido conjunto de experiencias que desde esa apu...
Mestizos Come Home!
Uruguayan writer Eduardo Galeano has described U.S. and Latin American culture as continually hobbled by amnesia—unable, or unwilling, to remember the influence of mestizos and indigenous populations. In Mestizos Come Home! author Robert Con Davis-Undiano documents the great awakening of Mexican American and Latino culture since the 1960s that has challenged this omission in collective memory. He maps a new awareness of the United States as intrinsically connected to the broader context of the Americas. At once native and new to the American Southwest, Mexican Americans have “come home” in a profound sense: they have reasserted their right to claim that land and U.S. culture as their o...
