Economía social y solidaria en la educación superior: un espacio para la innovación (Tomo 2)
El segundo tomo de la colección Economía social y solidaria en la educación superior: un espacio para la innovación aborda temas relacionados con los modelos y enfoques pedagógicos. Aquí se da relevancia a la reflexión epistemológica que subyace en las disciplinas y se incluye la economía social y solidaria como objeto de estudio que permite responder a la crisis de la civilización. Se incluyen también procesos en el aula que suscitan vínculos con la investigación formativa y las metodologías activas. Se exponen desarrollos curriculares que muestran un potencial para promover la retención y graduación de estudiantes a través del cooperativismo. También se muestra cómo este modelo socioeconómico y ambiental es la base de un ejercicio de integración e interacción con la sociedad a partir de un programa de reciclaje y manejo de residuos. Además, se presenta la buena práctica del tecnopolo o parque tecnológico de la Universidad pública de Yaundé II (Camerún), donde, a través de la economía social y solidaria, confluyen la docencia, la investigación y la proyección social para el beneficio de la comunidad y la universidad.
Decentralization
First published in 1985, Decentralization provides an analytical framework for the comparative study of decentralization in contemporary systems of government. It discusses the structures and processes of all forms of decentralized government and administration, drawing on a wide range of states, developed and developing, capitalist and socialist. The book provides a comparative and theoretical treatment of a subject that for too long has been dealt with in a fragmented and ethnocentric fashion. Decentralization is examined from a theoretical perspective and the political demand for it is analysed. Four key universal themes are then explored: areas, intergovernmental relations, finance and institutions. Decentralization to small-scale communities is discussed and the special claims made for decentralization in developing countries are assessed. Examples are drawn from a wide range of countries throughout the world. The book is intended for courses in public administration, comparative government, urban studies and public policy. It will help both the student and the non-specialist understand an important and topical aspect of government everywhere.

A Postfoundationalist Comparative Christology
This book offers a postfoundationalist comparative method, emerging from the Indian-Christian minority perspective, to affirm religious diversity and parity among religions. It upholds the particularity and universality of faith assertions across religions in dialogue by defining each religion's attempt at their revealed truth as a parallel quest.
Extended Epistemology
Extended Cognition examines the way in which features of a subject's cognitive environment can become constituent parts of the cognitive process itself. This volume explores the epistemological ramifications of this idea, bringing together academics from a variety of different areas, to investigate the very idea of an extended epistemology
Conceptual Spaces
Within cognitive science, two approaches currently dominate the problem of modeling representations. The symbolic approach views cognition as computation involving symbolic manipulation. Connectionism, a special case of associationism, models associations using artificial neuron networks. Peter Gärdenfors offers his theory of conceptual representations as a bridge between the symbolic and connectionist approaches. Symbolic representation is particularly weak at modeling concept learning, which is paramount for understanding many cognitive phenomena. Concept learning is closely tied to the notion of similarity, which is also poorly served by the symbolic approach. Gärdenfors's theory of con...

Land market distortions and aggregate agricultural productivity: Evidence from Guatemala
Farm size and land allocation are important factors in explaining lagging agricultural productivity in developing countries. This paper examines the effect of land market imperfections on land allocation across farmers and aggregate agricultural productivity. We develop a theoretical framework to model the optimal size distribution of farms and assess to what extent market imperfections can explain non-optimal land allocation and output in-efficiency. We measure these distortions for the case of Guatemala using agricultural census microdata. We find that due to land market imperfections aggregate output is 19% below its efficient level for both maize and beans and 31% below for coffee, which are three major crops produced nationwide. The regions with higher distortions show a higher dispersion in land prices and less active rental markets. We also find that the degree of land market distortions across locations co-variate with road accessibility and ethnicity and, in a lower extent, with education.
