The Palgrave Biographical Encyclopedia of Psychology in Latin America
This biographical encyclopedia will provide the first comprehensive reference work on leading scholars and professionals who have contributed to the development and institutionalization of psychology in Latin America. The figures biographed will include scholars who have made a significant theoretical contribution to the discipline, as well as, practitioners and those who have contributed to the institutionalization of psychology, through their work in scientific organisations, professional bodies and publications. All persons included are recognized authorities and either natives of, or long-term residents in the region. It will offer an invaluable reference point, in particular for scholars of the history of psychology, Latin American studies, the history of science, and global psychology; as well as for historians, psychologists and social scientists seeking international perspectives on the development of the discipline.
Procesos de subjetivación
Este libro reúne una decena de trabajos recientes sobre prácticas psicológicas, todos ellos con material empírico de carácter etnográfico o historiográfico. Están realizados por un total de veintiún autores y en ocho universidades distintas de Brasil, Chile, Colombia, España y Uruguay. Los precede un capítulo introductorio donde se problematizan las condiciones de posibilidad teóricas y metodológicas para investigar las prácticas psicológicas, entendiéndolas como tecnologías del yo, de acuerdo con el concepto acuñado por Michel Foucault referido a las técnicas de modificación de la subjetividad. Los trabajos abordan varios fenómenos de producción de subjetividad en ámb...
Governamentalidade e Práticas Psicológicas
O que o governo, tema da vida coletiva, tem a ver com a psicologia, ciência da vida privada? Se seguíssemos a filosofia política tradicional, a partir de uma tentativa de justificar ou legitimar os dispositivos de soberania do Estado, não encontraríamos qualquer conexão. A perspectiva muda quando tomamos o conceito de governo como "genealogia do Estado moderno", projeto empreendido por Michel Foucault, no final dos anos 1970. Esse projeto foi retomado por inúmeros outros autores, como Michel Senellart, Graham Burchel, Colin Gordon, Peter Miller e Nikolas Rose. Para evitar a confusão com outros possíveis conceitos de governo, Foucault usa o termo "governamentalidade", enquanto "manei...

La Teoría del actor-red desde América Latina
La teoría del actor-red (TAR), enunciada inicialmente en el campo de los estudios de la ciencia y la tecnología, constituye uno de los enfoques teórico-metodológicos más recientes y controvertidos en el ámbito de las ciencias sociales. Su carácter relacional determina que la interacción entre actantes (humanos y no-humanos) define y redefine constantemente a los actores sociales, por lo que éstos se configuran como actores-red, ya que sus atributos sólo pueden ser definidos por las relaciones que establecen dentro de la red. En la última década, este enfoque ha logrado amplia difusión en el ámbito internacional, y América Latina no ha sido la excepción. En la región, científicos sociales de diversas disciplinas adoptan los postulados ontológicos y metodológicos de la TAR para el análisis de temas y objetos de investigación muy variados. Este libro constituye una aportación al desarrollo de la TAR, a partir de un conjunto de colaboraciones que desde distintas disciplinas muestran resultados de la investigación realizada a la luz de este enfoque.
Research Handbook on Compliance in International Human Rights Law
This comprehensive Research Handbook offers an in-depth examination of the most significant factors affecting compliance with international human rights law, which has emerged as one of the key problems in the efforts to promote effective protection of human rights. In particular, it examines the relationships between regional human rights courts and domestic actors and judiciaries.
The Mexican Filmography, 1916 through 2001
Mexican cinema has largely been overlooked by international film scholars because of a lack of English-language information and the fact that Spanish-language information was difficult to find and often out of date. This comprehensive filmography helps fill the need. Arranged by year of release and then by title, the filmography contains entries that include basic information (film and translated title, production company, genre, director, cast), a plot summary, and additional information about the film. Inclusion criteria: a film must be a Mexican production or co-production, feature length (one hour or more, silent films excepted), fictional (documentaries and compilation films are not included unless the topic relates to Mexican cinema; some docudramas and films with recreated or staged scenes are included), and theatrically released or intended for theatrical release.
Courts Under Constraints
This book is a study of how institutional instability affects judicial behavior under dictatorship and democracy.
Constitutionalism and Dictatorship
It is widely believed that autocratic regimes cannot limit their power through institutions of their own making. This book presents a surprising challenge to this view. It demonstrates that the Chilean armed forces were constrained by institutions of their own design. Based on extensive documentation of military decision-making, much of it long classified and unavailable, this book reconstructs the politics of institutions within the recent Chilean dictatorship (1973–1990). It examines the structuring of institutions at the apex of the military junta, the relationship of military rule with the prior constitution, the intra-military conflicts that led to the promulgation of the 1980 constitution, the logic of institutions contained in the new constitution, and how the constitution constrained the military junta after it went into force in 1981. This provocative account reveals the standard account of the dictatorship as a personalist regime with power concentrated in Pinochet to be grossly inaccurate.
