Entre las exigencias de calidad y las condiciones de desigualdad
Este libro es producto de la investigación realizada durante 2016 y 2017 por profesores vinculados a cinco grupos de investigación de la Universidad Pedagógica Nacional. Se enfoca en las implicaciones que tiene para el país pensar la calidad de la educación y la formación de maestro desde las teorías del capital humano, privilegiadas por los entes gubernamentales, encargados de definir la política educativa, y que se han traducido en el énfasis otorgado a la formación docente como factor estratégico para alcanzar la calidad de la educación. Se confronta el Sistema de Aseguramiento de la Calidad con la experiencia de quienes enfrentan sus exigencias y se formula un conjunto de lineamientos de política que se inspiran en las teorías de la justicia social. Lo anterior con el propósito de avanzar en procesos de redistribución de recursos, reconocimiento y participación efectiva de las comunidades académicas encargadas de formar maestros en los programas de licenciatura del país.

Post-Sustainability and Environmental Education
This book provides a critique of over two decades of sustained effort to infuse educational systems with education for sustainable development. Taking to heart the idea that deconstruction is a prelude to reconstruction, this critique leads to discussions about how education can be remade, and respond to the educational imperatives of our time, particularly as they relate to ecological crises and human-nature relationships. It will be of great interest to students and researchers of sociology, education, philosophy and environmental issues.
Hyperborder
Roving vigilantes, fear-mongering politicians, hysterical pundits, and the looming shadow of a seven hundred-mile-long fence: the US–Mexican border is one of the most complex and dynamic areas on the planet today. Hyperborder provides the most nuanced portrait yet of this dynamic region. Author Fernando Romero presents a multidisciplinary perspective informed by interviews with numerous academics, researchers, and organizations. Provocatively designed in the style of other kinetic large-scale studies like Rem Koolhaas's Content and Bruce Mau’s Massive Change, Hyperborder is an exhaustively researched report from the front lines of the border debate.
