Luisa de Venero, una encomendera en Santafé
Luisa de Venero, una encomendera en Santafé es la reconstrucción histórica de la vida de una encomendera del siglo XVI en el Nuevo Reino de Granada. Esto con el objetivo de contribuir a la visibilización de la participación femenina en la cultura, la sociedad, la economía y la política durante la colonización española temprana. Este texto, además de los historiadores y escritores de novelas históricas, busca que las mujeres de toda condición se interesen por este periodo de la historia, apuntando a crear un pensamiento crítico que permita integrar el pasado al acontecer actual de manera más compleja. La obra se divide en tres capítulos, precedidos de una introducción. El primero elabora un contexto histórico urbano de la ciudad de Santafé, donde transcurrió la vida de esta encomendera; el segundo, realiza una aproximación microhistórica del pleito y del testamento de la encomendera Luisa de Venero, para culminar, en el tercero, con una exposición analítica sobre los textos que se refieren a las mujeres encomenderas desde el siglo XVII al XIX.

Guerrilla Marketing
Brand warfare is real. Guerrilla Marketing details the Colombian government’s efforts to transform Marxist guerrilla fighters in the FARC into consumer citizens. Alexander L. Fattal shows how the market has become one of the principal grounds on which counterinsurgency warfare is waged and postconflict futures are imagined in Colombia. This layered case study illuminates a larger phenomenon: the convergence of marketing and militarism in the twenty-first century. Taking a global view of information warfare, Guerrilla Marketing combines archival research and extensive fieldwork not just with the Colombian Ministry of Defense and former rebel communities, but also with political exiles in Sw...

The Atlantic Forest
The Atlantic Forest is one of the 36 hotspots for biodiversity conservation worldwide. It is a unique, large biome (more than 3000 km in latitude; 2500 in longitude), marked by high biodiversity, high degree of endemic species and, at the same time, extremely threatened. Approximately 70% of the Brazilian population lives in the area of this biome, which makes the conflict between biodiversity conservation and the sustainability of the human population a relevant issue. This book aims to cover: 1) the historical characterization and geographic variation of the biome; 2) the distribution of the diversity of some relevant taxa; 3) the main threats to biodiversity, and 4) possible opportunities to ensure the biodiversity conservation, and the economic and social sustainability. Also, it is hoped that this book can be useful for those involved in the development of public policies aimed at the conservation of this important global biome.

Women's Writing in Colombia
Winner of the Montserrat Ordóñez Prize 2018 This book provides an original and exciting analysis of Colombian women’s writing and its relationship to feminist history from the 1970s to the present. In a period in which questions surrounding women and gender are often sidelined in the academic arena, it argues that feminism has been an important and intrinsic part of contemporary Colombian history. Focusing on understudied literary and non-literary texts written by Colombian women, it traces the particularities of Colombian feminism, showing how it has been closely entwined with left-wing politics and the country’s history of violence. This book therefore rethinks the place of feminism in Latin American history and its relationship to feminisms elsewhere, challenging many of the predominant critical paradigms used to understand Latin American literature and culture.
