Las desapariciones forzadas y los “falsos positivos”
Actualmente no hay un consenso en la categorización jurídica de los mal llamados “falsos positivos” debido a que en algunas ocasiones se habla de ejecuciones extrajudiciales, otras veces de homicidio en persona protegida y en otros casos de desapariciones forzadas, dependiendo de la institución que los juzgue. Por eso se hace imprescindible la integración de conceptos para que se pueda generar seguridad jurídica en el derecho administrativo colombiano en lo referente a la responsabilidad extracontractual del Estado. El concepto de reparación adoptado en los estamentos de derecho administrativo colombiano no siempre coincide con los estándares delineados por el Sistema Interamerica...
El principio de igualdad en la configuración de los regímenes pensionales
Las desigualdades están presentes en todos los sectores de las sociedad colombiana se evidencian en el acceso a la educación y los servicios de salud y públicos, en los ingresos económicos y oportunidades de información, en las opciones a los empleados públicos y privados y, particularmente, en la obtención de la seguridad social en su expresión pensional. Estamos ante una cadena de desigualdades que termina con una insolvencia que es predecible e inevitable para muchos; la imposibilidad de hacer efectivo el derecho fundamental de obtener una pensión de vejez, invalidez y sobreviviencia, que e supone debería garantizar el Estado a los adultos mayores para llevar un digno envejecimiento. Este es el escenario que aparece cuando se describe la problemática actual del Sistema General de Seguridad Social colombiano. profundos e innegables contrastes, generadores de tensión en el escenario normativo, mucho más garantista -al menos en su formulación- de los derechos fundamentales.

Pedagogy of Insurrection
«Pedagogy of Insurrection» by Peter McLaren has won the American Educational Research Association, Division B Outstanding Book Recognition Award 2016. Peter McLaren, named Outstanding Educator in America by the Association of Educators of Latin America and the Caribbean in 2013 and winner of numerous awards for his scholarship and international political activism, has penned another classic work with Pedagogy of Insurrection. One of the educators that Ana Maria (Nita) Araújo Freire credits as an architect of what has come to be known worldwide as critical pedagogy, and who Paulo Freire named his 'intellectual cousin,' McLaren has consistently produced iconoclastic work that has been heralded by educators worldwide as among some of the most significant commentary on the state of education. He is Honorary President of the Instituto McLaren de Pedagogía Crítica y Educación Popular in Ensenada, México, and Honorary Director of the Center for Critical Pedagogy Research at Northeast Normal University in China.

Pollution of Water Bodies in Latin America
The indiscriminate use of chemical substances in industrial processes and anthropogenic activities, have resulted in the release of these compounds into aquatic ecosystems through municipal, hospital and industrial discharges, producing various undesired effects on the environment and on species of ecological interest. These compounds, such as metals, pesticides, emerging pollutants and other substances are persistent and susceptible to biotic and/or abiotic transformations, yielding metabolites that can be more toxic than the original compounds. In this book, researchers from diverse environmental science disciplines share their experiences in countries such as Argentina, Brazil, Colombia and Mexico, and critically examine the problem of contaminants in aquatic ecosystems in Latin America, as well as the risks presented by their presence.
Paulo Freire
Paulo Freire (1921-1997) is one of the most widely read and studied educational thinkers of our time. His seminal works, including Pedagogy of the Oppressed, sparked the global social and philosophical movement of critical pedagogy and his ideas about the close ties between education and social justice and politics are as relevant today as they ever were. In this book, Walter Omar Kohan interweaves philosophical, educational, and biographical elements of Freire's life which prompt us to reflect on what we thought we knew about Freire, and also on the relationship between education and politics more broadly. It offers a new and timely reading of Freire's work and life. The book is structured ...
Critical Realism for Marxist Sociology of Education
This book offers a critical realist intervention into the field of Marxist Sociology of Education. Critical realism, as developed by British philosopher Roy Bhaskar, is known for its capacity to serve as a conceptual underlabourer to applied fields like education. Indeed, its success in clarifying and resolving thorny issues of educational theory and practice is now well established. Given critical realism’s sympathetic Marxist origins, its productive and critical engagement with Marxism has an even longer history. To date there has been little sustained attention given to the application of critical realism to Marxist educational praxis. The book addresses this gap in existing scholarship...
