La pospandemia en un contexto de desarrollo solidario

La pospandemia y los efectos de la pandemia aún presentes han motivado múltiples discusiones, dejando en claro que no se quiere volver a una normalidad cuyos problemas estructurales no han sido solucionados por la economía de mercado a lo largo de varias décadas, sino que, por el contrario, se han agudizado y visibilizado con la propagación de la covid-19. Con el propósito de superar las numerosas consecuencias en sus diversas dimensiones, se impulsan cambios en el modelo económico vigente, de tal modo que permita rebasar sus fallos y reorientar el papel del Estado hacia uno más activo en lo económico, social y ambiental, en donde se otorgue un papel preponderante a las necesidades ...

Fraught Decisions in Plato and Shakespeare

In the reincarnation myth in Book X of Plato’s Republic, the unnamed first soul, who has lived a good life and has been rewarded in the afterlife, chooses a new life and fate, and chooses catastrophically badly. He finds himself fated to eat his own children. Despite being warned to blame only himself, he wails and blames anything and everything else in his conviction that his fate is undeserved. Though he should not be shocked because he has made this choice himself, he is incredulous because he has completely misunderstood the nature of his choice. Starting with Plato’s myth, this book looks at the errors this soul has made and considers these errors through both the Republic and a ser...

They are one of the most significant causes of morbidity and mortality each year and have a significant economic impact. In recent years, research has been conducted to find alternative approaches to influenza vaccine development, including the generation of universal vaccines. Notably, sig...

Metamodernism and the Return of Transcendence

  • Publisher: Unknown

The period known as Postmodernism is over. With it goes the pervasive cynicism, apathy, and nihilism that defined so much of American culture during the latter 20th century. Now, a new sensibility--called "Metamodernism" by an emerging consensus--has occasioned the return of various ideas long denigrated under Postmodernism, but also transformed by it. This Metamodern sensibility is characterized by a thorough reimagination of transcendence, and the exploration of new modes of depth and dimensionality for meeting the challenge of the contemporary meaning crisis. Such is the argument presented in this short but incisive text, as it tracks the development of this new period from the decline of Postmodernism to today. In addition, this analysis is supplemented by two accompanying essays that explore the Metamodern reconstruction of meaning through artistic mythmaking, with examples from contemporary art and literature.
