Educación para la vida

¿Se reflexiona verdaderamente sobre cómo contribuir con la formación del ser humano en las propuestas educativas? Esta es una pregunta esencial que inquieta a las ies, que se torna aún más relevante y urgente, en medio del siglo XXI, en una sociedad cambiante, globalizada, que enfrenta desafíos de orden planetario. La decanatura del Medio Universitario de la Universidad del Rosario ha asumido el reto de acompañar por 25 años a las generaciones de estudiantes en la formación profesional y en el descubrimiento de su identidad personal, en el afianzamiento de sus relaciones con los otros, sus formas de expresarse y la adquisición de hábitos de autocuidado. La propuesta Vivir, sentir ...

Dimensiones de la migración en Colombia.

Colombia, al igual que casi todos los países de América, es un país que tiene una larga historia de migración. Comprender sus movimientos de población nos enseña un poco de su carácter, sus alegrías y sus dolores. Analizar y revisar las migraciones, es decir, cómo la gente se mueve y por qué, dará mayores argumentos para pensar en cómo es la identidad de un territorio, cómo y por qué se producen los cambios en su población. Pensar Colombia y sus migraciones es pensar su propia idiosincrasia, buscando los caminos que llevan a mirar hacia donde la diversidad y las relaciones interculturales empujadas por las migraciones permiten dialogar y cohesionar el territorio, en donde las diferencias se vuelcan a la unidad y el país avanza y genera creatividad, ya que las personas llevan consigo ideas que viajan junto a sus maletas, encontrándose conexiones y nuevas formas de ver el mundo, el país y a sus ciudadanos.

Refugee Economies

Refugees have rarely been studied by economists. Despite some pioneering research on the economic lives of refugees, there remains a lack of theory and empirical data through which to understand, and build upon, refugees' own engagement with markets. Yet, understanding these economic systems may hold the key to rethinking our entire approach to refugee assistance. If we can improve our knowledge of the resource allocation systems that shape refugees' lives and opportunities, then we may be able to understand the mechanisms through which these market-based systems can be made to work better and turn humanitarian challenges into sustainable opportunities. This book adopts an inter-disciplinary...

It is all too often assumed that humour is the very effect of a text. But humour is not a perlocutionary effect in its own right, nor is laughter. The humour of a text may be as general a characteristic as a serious text's seriousness. Like serious texts, humorous texts have many different purposes and effects. They can be subdivided into specific subgenres, with their own perlocutionary effects, their own types of laughter (or even other reactions). Translation scholars need to be able to distinguish between various kinds of humour (or humorous effect) when comparing source and target texts, especially since the notion of "effect" pops up so frequently in the evaluation of humorous texts an...

The Mediterranean region under climate change

This book has been published by Allenvi (French National Alliance for Environmental Research) to coincide with the 22nd Conference of Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (COP22) in Marrakesh. It is the outcome of work by academic researchers on both sides of the Mediterranean and provides a remarkable scientific review of the mechanisms of climate change and its impacts on the environment, the economy, health and Mediterranean societies. It will also be valuable in developing responses that draw on “scientific evidence” to address the issues of adaptation, resource conservation, solutions and risk prevention. Reflecting the full complexity of the Mediterranean environment, the book is a major scientific contribution to the climate issue, where various scientific considerations converge to break down the boundaries between disciplines.
