Archivo y cartografía de la educación en Colombia, década del sesenta.

Este libro construye un punto de vista sobre la educación, pero, especialmente, está pensado para aquel lector que no sabe sobre ella. ¡Cuán difícil es hablar sobre educación hoy! La dificultad radica en que todos hablan de educación en código binario, tocan la espuma de la pedagogía y se ponen una pompa en el rostro cuando hablan de aprendizaje, y esta espuma se forma de la historia de las ideas, la historia de los modelos y la historia de las escuelas pedagógicas. Como todo, esto tiene consecuencias, una de ellas: la pedagogía como el asidero de discursos vacuos y raquíticos. Este libro está hecho para el lector, para aquel el lector que quiera aprender. Y pasa como cuando apr...

Art from a Fractured Past

Peru's Truth and Reconciliation Commission not only documented the political violence of the 1980s and 1990s but also gave Peruvians a unique opportunity to examine the causes and nature of that violence. In Art from a Fractured Past, scholars and artists expand on the commission's work, arguing for broadening the definition of the testimonial to include various forms of artistic production as documentary evidence. Their innovative focus on representation offers new and compelling perspectives on how Peruvians experienced those years and how they have attempted to come to terms with the memories and legacies of violence. Their findings about Peru offer insight into questions of art, memory, ...

Toward High-quality Education in Peru

This book has three main recommendations. First, it is necessary to generate basic standards, quality goals, and quality measurement systems. Second, once quality can be measured, a clear system of accountability should be implemented based on these standards and quality goals. The clients will play a central role in these systems by demanding their rights to quality services; this will only become possible once there are standards and goals that clarify clients' rights. Third, once there are standards and systems of accountability, investment is needed to strengthen the institutional capacity of the providers.

Critical Medical Anthropology presents inspiring work from scholars doing and engaging with ethnographic research in or from Latin America, addressing themes that are central to contemporary Critical Medical Anthropology (CMA). This includes issues of inequality, embodiment of history, indigeneity, non-communicable diseases, gendered violence, migration, substance abuse, reproductive politics and judicialisation, as these relate to health. The collection of ethnographically informed research, including original theoretical contributions, reconsiders the broader relevance of CMA perspectives for addressing current global healthcare challenges from and of Latin America. It includes work spanning four countries in Latin America (Mexico, Brazil, Guatemala and Peru) as well as the trans-migratory contexts they connect and are defined by. By drawing on diverse social practices, it addresses challenges of central relevance to medical anthropology and global health, including reproduction and maternal health, sex work, rare and chronic diseases, the pharmaceutical industry and questions of agency, political economy, identity, ethnicity, and human rights.

Fundamentos Del Derecho Disciplinario Colombiano

  • Categories: Law

El Derecho Disciplinario en Colombia ha evolucionado y se ha consolidado bajo la premisa de la autonomía e independencia funcional respecto de sus principales mentores e n épocas recientes, como lo era el Derecho Administrativo o el Derecho Penal. Ciertamente derecho sancionatorio o contravencional administrativo y derecho penal son especies del género ius puniendi, empero, también lo es el derecho disciplinario, de tal manera que existe entre ellos una conexión estructural, que no dependencia, que muestran a éste como una nueva disciplina de imperiosa y necesaria observación, para los efectos de cumplir con los cometidos de la función pública en un Estado Social y Democrático de Derecho. En el texto se encontrará, bajo las anteriores premisas, los fundamentos que soportan la idea de una Dogmática del Derecho Disciplinario.

33 Revolutions

A novel of modern Cuba written by Che Guevara’s grandson The hero of this mordant portrayal of life in contemporary Cuba is a black Cuban whose parents were enthusiastic supporters of the Castro revolution.

Our hero separates from his wife and now spends much of his time in the company of his Russian neighbour, from whom he discovers the pleasures of reading. The books he reads gradually open his eyes to the incongruity between party slogans and the grey oppressive reality that surrounds him: the office...
