Sentidos de la educación superior y perspectivas críticas sobre el concepto de calidad

Este libro reúne reflexiones críticas sobre el concepto de calidad en la educación superior. Entender la calidad como una noción multidimensional, contextual y de poder constituye la premisa de los textos que aquí se reúnen y que han sido elaborados acudiendo a una perspectiva interdisciplinaria que dialoga con la ciencia política, la antropología, las ciencias económicas, la pedagogía y los estudios rurales. Además de presentar una discusión general sobre el concepto de calidad en la educación superior contemporánea, el libro propone una aproximación crítica a las tendencias observadas en el caso colombiano, y plantea cómo la comprensión de la calidad se enriquece y reconfigura cuando se le confronta con los desafíos que surgen desde la interculturalidad, la ruralidad, la construcción de paz, la formación docente y la pedagogía. Hablar de calidad remite a discusiones más amplias sobre los sentidos de la educación superior.

Victim Activists in Mexico

Victim Activists in Mexico: Social and Political Mobilization amid Extreme Violence and Disappearances examines the collective action of the courageous family members of the disappeared in the midst of Mexico’s ongoing humanitarian crisis over the last decades. Yael Siman and Matthew Hone analyze this grassroots mobilization and argue that the activists have created rutinary, contentious, and innovative types of resistance through building local and trans-local links of support and solidarity that reinforce their struggle. This mobilization from below has contributed to constructing transitional justice including laws, public apologies, and memorials. The combination of internal and external factors impacting the collectives and their environment has enabled significant changes in the institutions, state responses, and the victimhood narratives in the country. This book adds to the scholarship on the collective action of grieving families by focusing on both the social and political aspects of mobilization.

Crafting a Republic for the World

In the wake of independence, Spanish American leaders perceived the colonial past as looming over their present. Crafting a Republic for the World examines how the vibrant postcolonial public sphere in Colombia invented narratives of the Spanish "colonial legacy." Those supposed legacies included a lack of effective geographic knowledge, blockages to a circulatory political economy, existing patterns of land tenure, entrenched inequalities, and ignorance among popular sectors. At times collaboratively, and at times combatively, Colombian leaders tackled these "colonial" legacies to forge a republic in a hostile world of monarchies and empires. The highly partisan, yet uniformly republican pu...
