Abriendo el diálogo (in)disciplinar
Tal vez la palabra que más resuena en nuestra cabeza al leer el título del presente volumen sea ‘(in)disciplina’, palabra con la que sus editores han querido resaltar, entre la ironía y la provocación, la búsqueda de un sentido propio y original para el esfuerzo de compartir en una publicación el conjunto rico y variado de trabajos surgidos al alero de los seminarios de la Facultad de Ciencias Sociales y Humanidades de la Universidad Católica de Temuco, realizados durante el año 2014. Si hacer ciencia social es ya un ejercicio difícil en un mundo que mira maravillado los despliegues del desarrollo tecnológico, más difícil aún es hacer ciencias de la sociedad en una regi...
Leadership and Organizational Sustainability
The book presents a new type of leadership focused on sustainable human development and organizational sustainability, which is based on the self-realization of the person of the leader, which means the satisfaction of their needs, according to the scale of Abraham Maslow, through integral human development in all aspects of life. Because the term "leader" appears to refer to anyone with the authority to confer a position with subordinates, the reality within organizations has shown that a leader must go further and demonstrate commitment, awareness, and concern for the common good. Which person has these characteristics? People who have had more opportunity to develop in different areas of ...
El helicoide de la investigación
Este libro no es un texto de metodología tradicional. Propone, en cambio, un abordaje diferente exponiendo al lector las decisiones y los caminos metodológicos emprendidos en investigaciones que originaron tesis de doctorado y de maestría en ciencias sociales. La obra condensa experiencias reflexionadas y narradas por los propios autores sobre el proceso que los llevó a culminar con éxito sus tesis. Es un libro que comparte con aire intimista, la lógica del vaivén en torno a los momentos de decisión y gozo que enfrentan todos aquellos comprometidos con la tarea de investigar.
Antropologías carcelarias
El libro aborda el encierro desde diversas perspectivas, con contribuciones de especialistas de varios países. Se destaca la situación de poblaciones intracarcelarias, que comparten características similares: color, clase, grupo étnico, edad, nivel educativo y tipo de delito. Se evidencia la violencia y condiciones deplorables en las cárceles, afectando la dignidad de los presos. Se sugiere el uso de métodos etnográficos para comprender profundamente estas problemáticas. Además, se señala la existencia de grupos especiales de reclusos y el impacto del encierro en sus familias, ofreciendo una visión panorámica desde la antropología.
COMENTARIO BÍBLICO-TEOLÓGICO LATINOAMERICANO SOBRE MEDELLÍN
El Comentario Bíblico-Teológico lleva a cabo una revisión crítica pero propositiva de los horizontes y prácticas eclesiales que han emergido a partir de la II Conferencia General del Episcopado Latinoamericano que tuvo lugar en Medellín (Colombia) en 1968. Tanto el evento como los documentos de ahí emanados pusieron en marcha un cambio profundo de la identidad y práctica eclesial latinoamericana cuyos frutos, pero también tareas pendientes constituyen el paisaje actual de la Iglesia católica en América Latina.

Woven Stone
"What I do as a writer, teacher, and storyteller is to demystify language," says Simon Ortiz. Widely regarded as one of the country's most important Native American poets, Ortiz has led a thirty-year career marked by a fascination with language—and by a love of his people. This omnibus of three previous works offers old and new readers an appreciation of the fruits of his dedication. Going for the Rain (1976) expresses closeness to a specific Native American way of life and its philosophy and is structured in the narrative form of a journey on the road of life. A Good Journey (1977), an evocation of Ortiz's constant awareness of his heritage, draws on the oral tradition of his Pueblo cultu...
Toward a Theory of Governance
For more than a century Western democracies have struggled to keep faith with both economic efficiency and social justice. Yet reconciliation of these factors remains as baffling as ever. Among the many voices clamoring today for a theory of collective action, we hear most often of the great chasm between ?legitimacy? and ?efficiency?. It is the contention of the authors of this ground-breaking book that these antinomies can be seen as distinct ?moments of application? in the operation of normative judgement, and that a reflexive treatment of norms of collective action, by clarifying limitations in rules and beliefs, allows us to develop mechanisms to correct the limiting effects of such jud...
Reflexive Governance
Reflexive governance offers a theoretical framework for understanding modern patterns of governance in the European Union (EU) institutions and elsewhere. It offers a learning-based approach to governance, but one which can better respond to concerns about the democratic deficit and to the fulfillment of the public interest than the currently dominant neo-institutionalist approaches. The book is composed of one general introduction and eight chapters. Chapter one introduces the concept of reflexive governance and describes the overall framework. The following chapters of the book then summarise the implications of reflexive governance in major areas of domestic, EU and global policy-making. ...
The Rhetoric of Science
Alan Gross applies the principles of rhetoric to the interpretation of classical and contemporary scientific texts to show how they persuade both author and audience. This invigorating consideration of the ways in which scientists--from Copernicus to Darwin to Newton to James Watson--establish authority and convince one another and us of the truth they describe may very well lead to a remodeling of our understanding of science and its place in society.
