Approaches to the concept of Trans-Subjectivity

Usually, understanding of the world has been divided between objective and subjective. Phenomenology and Philosophy of language also included the intersubjective in this comprehension. Some researchers have detected needing to go further and study a broader concept. The study of trans-subjectivity seeks to fill that gap and delve into a novel concept.

El canto del ruiseñor que no era ruiseñor: aves en América vistas por los cronistas de Mesoamérica y del Caribe

El título que su autor da a este libro no es al azar. El Canto del Ruiseñor, es lo que escucha no solamente Cristóbal Colón, sino también, otros conquistadores que han dejado relato de ello. De boca de los propios cronistas, Juan Guillermo, desvela las maravillas aladas jamás antes vistas y como intentaron asemejarlas a las europeas, en un afán de comprender lo que ellos no comprendían. A lo largo de sus capítulos Juan Guillermo, expone como navegaron por los aires en los siglos XV y XVI, las más hermosas y extrañas aves jamás vistas por ojo occidental del otro lado del Atlántico, relatadas por aquellos hombres que quisieron dejar nombre de sí para la posteridad y a la vez, dar a conocer a sus respectivos reyes y príncipes, lo que la vista y el cerebro, tratan de entender. Una crónica de las aves en América y su importancia para la historia del continente

A su vez, dejan claro que la democracia es una invención a la cual debemos reconocer su esencia y no olvidarse de ello

New Directions in Military Sociology

This edition brings together military sociologists from eight countries to discuss and illustrate new directions for military sociology. As the roles and even the meaning of the armed forces are evolving rapidly, the authors present alternate ways of looking at key social issues and assumptions about armed forces and society. The chapters examine the foundations of military sociology and elucidate the potential contributions of interpretative sociology and allied approaches to the study of military affairs. This collection is intended primarily for academic researchers and students of military affairs, in both civilian and military institutions. Researchers will find a wide array of tools and perspectives that can be used in dealing with the challenges that face the armed forces and society. The text offers several pedagological features such as learning objectives, key terms and concepts, study questions, and other resources that undergraduates, as well as graduate students and their teachers, will find most helpful.

An Army officer must lead men into frightening and dangerous situations and sometimes make them do things that they never thought they could do. This book recounts how British officers have led their men, and commanded their respect, from the days of Marlborough to the Second Iraq war of 2003. Anthony Clayton explores who the officers, men and now women, have been and are, where they came from, what ideals or traditions have motivated them, and their own perceptions of themselves. His account tells the fascinating story of how the role of the military officer evolved, illustrated by a selection of captivating images, and the personal memoirs, biographies and autobiographies of officers.

Clifford Geertz, one of the most influential thinkers of our time, here discusses some of the most urgent issues facing intellectuals today. In this collection of personal and revealing essays, he explores the nature of his anthropological work in relation to a broader public, serving as the foremost spokesperson of his generation of scholars, those who came of age after World War II. His reflections are written in a style that both entertains and disconcerts, as they engage us in topics ranging from moral relativism to the relationship between cultural and psychological differences, from the diversity and tension among activist faiths to "ethnic conflict" in today's politics. Geertz, who on...
