Las incertidumbres de la educación media

En este libro se plantea cómo en el marco del neoliberalismo la educación queda relegada al plano de mediadora entre conocimiento y empleabilidad, acentuando a nivel hegemónico las relaciones sociales de producción que se desprenden de la ecuación diferencial entre Capital y Trabajo.

Acción colectiva y redes transnacionales

Este libro se propone abordar la acción colectiva transnacional del movimiento social afrocolombiano entre el periodo 2002-2010. En términos generales, se estudió la emergencia y estructuración de las redes transnacionales del movimiento a la luz del cambio de oportunidades políticas para la acción colectiva, con especial atención en la reconstrucción de las redes transnacionales que, desde abajo y desde arriba, dan muestra de las acciones de defensa y denuncia que despliega el movimiento mediante diversas estrategias políticas y comunicativas. El análisis se centró en vislumbrar el proceso de denuncias y de defensa efectuados por líderes y activistas de las comunidades afrocolombianas, en especial, de una organización de base: el Proceso de Comunidades Negras (PCN). Dicho proceso tuvo una dinámica transversal que va desde escenarios locales hasta esferas transnacionales, lo que obliga a entender la diversidad de acciones, discursos y estrategias del movimiento en su afán de afirmarse como actor y de apuntalar la lucha contra la violación sistemática de los derechos humanos de las poblaciones afrocolombianas en diversos puntos del territorio.

New Art of Cuba

  • Categories: Art

Starting with the groundbreaking 1981 exhibit called "Volumen I," New Art of Cuba provided the first comprehensive look at the works of the first generation of Cuban artists completely shaped by the 1959 revolution.

Twenty-four new color plates augment the more than 200 b&w illustrations of the original volume.

Poverty Reduction for Inclusive Sustainable Growth in Developing Asia

Poverty reduction in all its forms remains one of the greatest challenges facing humanity. In developing Asia, rapid growth in countries and sub-regions such as China, India, and Southeast Asia has lifted millions out of poverty, but progress has been uneven. On the other hand, the current coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic and the global economic recession that it has caused are pushing millions of people back into poverty.

Tea for Two and a Piece of Cake

What if life threw you a magnificent opportunity, only to knock you down later and laugh at you? Would you fight back or let it pass? Nisha’s life is far from perfect. At twenty-six, she is plump, plain-looking, and without a boyfriend. A chance date and a bizarre twist of events lead her to the altar with suave Samir Sharma, only to be abandoned eight years later.
