El objetivo de este libro es establecer relaciones entre los referentes teóricos que enmarcan la economía social y solidaria en América Latina y el territorio. Para lograrlo, se hizo un examen documental sobre la evolución en el tiempo de dichos conceptos. Esta revisión teórica se acompaña de la socialización de estudios sobre prácticas de la economía social y solidaria en los territorios en Colombia. Dada la diversidad que representa la economía social y solidaria, así como los mismos territorios en América Latina, no se puede hablar de una sola forma de hacer, para lograr las transformaciones que se requieren para conseguir un buen vivir. Desde el enfoque de territorio, cualqu...
La pospandemia y los efectos de la pandemia aún presentes han motivado múltiples discusiones, dejando en claro que no se quiere volver a una normalidad cuyos problemas estructurales no han sido solucionados por la economía de mercado a lo largo de varias décadas, sino que, por el contrario, se han agudizado y visibilizado con la propagación de la covid-19. Con el propósito de superar las numerosas consecuencias en sus diversas dimensiones, se impulsan cambios en el modelo económico vigente, de tal modo que permita rebasar sus fallos y reorientar el papel del Estado hacia uno más activo en lo económico, social y ambiental, en donde se otorgue un papel preponderante a las necesidades ...
Esta Enciclopedia de las Ciencias Morales y Políticas para el siglo XXI es un proyecto colectivo puesto en marcha gracias a la participación de muchos académicos y colaboradores externos de alto nivel. No es ni pretende ser un «Diccionario» de carácter exhaustivo y puramente técnico, ya que su objetivo es muy diferente: se trata de hacer balance y plantear perspectivas de futuro. Vivimos en un tiempo de anarquía conceptual y realidades confusas, pero envidiable – a pesar de todo – si lo comparamos con épocas recientes o pretéritas a efectos de dignidad humana, recursos económicos y estabilidad social y política. Sin embargo, los tiempos apuntan «a peor», y conviene acertar ...

Food systems around the world face a triple challenge: providing food security and nutrition for a growing global population; supporting livelihoods for those working along the food supply chain; and contributing to environmental sustainability. Better policies hold tremendous promise for making progress in these domains.
Written by the two most recognized Appreciative Inquiry thought leaders A quick, accessible introduction to one of the most popular change methods today--proven effective in organizations ranging from Roadway Express and British Airways to the United Nations and the United States Navy Appreciative Inquiry (AI) is a model of change management uniquely suited to the values, beliefs, and challenges of organizations today. AI is a process that emphasizes identifying and building on strengths, rather than focusing exclusively on fixing weaknesses as most other change processes do. As the stories in this book illustrate, it results in dramatic improvements in the triple bottom line: people, profit...
Narrative Therapy provides an introduction to the theory, history, research, and practice of this post-structural approach. First developed by David Epston and Michael White, this therapeutic theory is founded on the idea that people have many interacting narratives that go into making up their sense of who they are, and that the issues they bring to therapy are not restricted to (or located) within the clients themselves, but rather are influenced and shaped by cultural discourses about identity and power. Narrative therapy centers around a rich engagement in re-storying a client's narrative by re-considering, re-appreciating, and re-authoring the client's preferred lives and relationships....
A Dynamic New Approach to Organizational Change Dialogic Organization Development is a compelling alternative to the classical action research approach to planned change. Organizations are seen as fluid, socially constructed realities that are continuously created through conversations and images. Leaders and consultants can help foster change by encouraging disruptions to taken-for-granted ways of thinking and acting and the use of generative images to stimulate new organizational conversations and narratives. This book offers the first comprehensive introduction to Dialogic Organization Development with chapters by a global team of leading scholar-practitioners addressing both theoretical foundations and specific practices.
