Biografía de Héctor Ricardo Leis. Autocrítica de la lucha armada en la Argentina. La memoria más importante que debemos desmitificar hoy no giran entorno a la violencia de los 70, sino al fascismo que penetró instituciones, movimientos e ideologías y encarnó en los militares, en el peronismo y, por último, en la izquierda revolucionaria. Pido confesiones y perdones públicos, responsabilidad en vez de silencio. Precisamos una poderosa catarsis sanadora. Estoy convencido de que cuando reclamo un único memorial para todas las víctimas de la violencia soy el mismo Héctor Ricardo Leis que era en esa época, cuando tomé equivocadamente las armas. Mi sentido de justicia y verdad contin...

Argentina's recently established democracy endured the trauma of four major military uprisings between 1987 and 1990, continuing even after the rebels' original motivations faded. Exploring the causes of the rebellions and the rebel movement's development, Deborah L. Norden's Military Rebellion in Argentina underlines the inherently undefined nature of new democracies and reveals important dimensions of how coalitions are formed within the armed forces. By focusing on a military movement rather than merely separate incidents of insurrection, this study reveals central motivations that could be otherwise overlooked. Norden begins with an analysis of the relation between democracy and military...
Technopolitics is a follow-up book that intends to depart and expand the concept of Cyberpolitics to all the dimensions and effects of technology in our lives but placing politics at the center of debate and thought. Most investigations in the fields of Humanities have highlighted the impact of digitization and social virtualization and mapped the transition from the Industrial Revolution, and mass disciplinary society, to the digital revolution, telework and social atomism. The fusion of disruptive technologies is changing the fundamentals of our world almost roaming on its own towards a near future with unprecedented and unpredictable outcomes. This new technological reason implies a ruptu...

Climate change is increasingly a part of the human experience. As the problem worsens, the cooperative dilemma that the issue carries has become evident: climate change is a complex problem that systematically gets insufficient answers from the international system. This book offers an assessment of Brazil’s role in the global political economy of climate change. The authors, Eduardo Viola and Matías Franchini expertly review and answer the most common and widely cited questions on whether and in which way Brazil is aggravating or mitigating the climate crisis, including:?Is it the benign, cooperative, environmental power that the Brazilian government claims it is? Why was it possible to ...
Observa-se hoje, nas cidades, uma crítica crescente à realidade em que vivemos. Há um inconformismo, que resulta num enfrentamento emergencial e numa transformação positiva de algumas partes da cidade. Não se presencia, no discurso ou na prática, a construção de uma utopia de transformação do espaço urbano como um todo, conforme se fez em décadas passadas, nas tentativas de reforma estrutural das cidades. Se a utopia persiste, hoje ela se fundamenta em pequenas, porém possíveis, intervenções urbanas. Desaparece a antiga utopia de se querer mudar positivamente a cidade em sua totalidade. Agora, as iniciativas que propõem tão somente mudar pedaços da malha urbana são consi...
