Juventud, identidad y violencia. Programa Diálogos del Pensamiento 140
No es necesario hablar de violencia para que todos reconozcamos que tiene una fuerte presencia en nuestra vida diaria, las alarmantes cifras dan cuenta de ello: durante el 2013 hubo 22 mil 732 homicidios en el país, es decir 19 muertes por cada 100 mil habitantes a escala nacional ó 62.2 homicidios al día. Entre 2006 y 2012 los feminicidios en México aumentaron 40%, de los cuales 95% permanecen impunes. En 2012 fallecieron aproximadamente 36 mil jóvenes. En los momentos actuales por los que atraviesa el país, en los que pareciera que el Estado moderno educa para la violencia, nos proponemos indagar en esta emisión en torno a los proyectos de intervención en jóvenes y adolescentes vu...
Anonymous
A man wakes up in someone elses body and then struggles to figure out what has happened. What happened to his former body, wife, and life? Who was the man whose body he is now in? Can he just fit in to a new family and life, or can he get his old life back? Is this all just a bad dream? Another man receives a series of threatening notes at work (Watch Out!) and then struggles to make sense of the situation and his life. He discovers that others at his office receive identical notes, and panic ensues. Can he and his colleagues puzzle it out? Should they flee or can they fight back? The stories of these two men intertwine in Anonymous. Their lives come together in a completely unexpected way. Rich scenes populate the novelmany of them highly ironic, others deeply poignant. Ignacio Solares published the original Spanish version of Anonymous in 1979. It has enjoyed numerous editions and boasts sales of over one hundred thousand copies. It is one of eighteen Mexican novels recently placed in every high school library in the country.

Imperial Subjects
In colonial Latin America, social identity did not correlate neatly with fixed categories of race and ethnicity. As Imperial Subjects demonstrates, from the early years of Spanish and Portuguese rule, understandings of race and ethnicity were fluid. In this collection, historians offer nuanced interpretations of identity as they investigate how Iberian settlers, African slaves, Native Americans, and their multi-ethnic progeny understood who they were as individuals, as members of various communities, and as imperial subjects. The contributors’ explorations of the relationship between colonial ideologies of difference and the identities historical actors presented span the entire colonial p...

Weapons of the Weak
Weapons of the Weak is an ethnography by James C. Scott that studies the effects of the Green Revolution in rural Malaysia. One of the main objectives of the study is to make an argument that the Marxian and Gramscian ideas of false consciousness and hegemony are incorrect. He develops this conclusion throughout the book, through the different scenarios and characters that come up during his time of fieldwork in the village. This publication, based on 2 years of fieldwork (1978-1980), focuses on the local class relations in a small rice farming community of 70 households in the main paddy-growing area of Kedah in Malaysia. Introduction of the Green Revolution in 1976 eliminated 2/3 of the wa...

[from] an incredibly brave journalist.” —NPR The “war on drugs” has so far cost more than 60,000 lives.
