SUSTAINABILITY AND ECOLOGICAL TRANSITION IN THE POST-COVID ERA
The new challenges of our economic, social and ecologic global context require solutions that go beyond “business as usual” strategies. While Europe and North America have gone through a deep economic crisis, which has affected all aspects of life –especially housing and working conditions–, other areas of the world have continued to grow and develop. The changing global context has important implications o the ways human beings organize their settings for everyday life –their residential environments and communal services, in particular– and on the necessity for supporting transitions to sustainable societies.

Lecturas sobre el desastre del Prestige
En 2013, diez años después de uno de los mayores desastres de la historia ambiental de España y, podría decirse, de Europa, un grupo de investigadores, coordinados por el profesor Ricardo García–Mira, tienen el atrevimiento de recopilar en este volumen un amplio conjunto de evidencias empíricas que muestran que el desastre del Prestige es (en tiempo presente, porque aún perviven muchos de sus efectos), un hecho ambiental con fuertes implicaciones políticas, psicológicas, sociales, económicas y culturales. El esfuerzo realizado por el cualificado elenco de investigadores que aparecen en la relación de autores resulta no sólo oportuno, sino de una gran importancia científica par...
Handbook of Environmental Psychology and Quality of Life Research
This Handbook presents a broad overview of the current research carried out in environmental psychology which puts into perspective quality of life and relationships with living spaces, and shows how this original analytical framework can be used to understand different environmental and societal issues.

En el Centenario del Instituto-Escuela. Obra educativa de los Institucionistas
Coincidiendo con la celebración del Centenario de creación del Instituto-Escuela, los autores Ángel S. Porto Ucha y Raquel Vázquez Ramil quieren aproximarse a las realizaciones educativas y científicas de los Institucionistas. Para ello, se tratan tres grandes apartados: la llegada del krausismo a España a través de Julián Sanz del Río, el nacimiento de la Institución Libre de Enseñanza (ILE) en torno de Francisco Giner de los Ríos y sus más inmediatos colaboradores, y las denominadas realizaciones educativas de los institucionistas.
Housing, Space and Quality of Life
Houses, and other spaces and environments in which people spend their time, have a crucial impact on quality of life. We are increasingly living in multi-cultural cities and communities, and this too significantly affects how we feel about spaces in which we live. This volume brings together psychologists, architects, designers and planners to discuss issues of housing, space, sustainability and multi-culturalism. In doing so, the book provides an insightful critical analysis of space, place and the quality of life. It also addresses the implications of intercultural tension on quality of life and on the way in which people use and interact in a multi-cultural space. With case studies from Spain, Turkey, Brazil, the UK, the USA and Israel, it discusses issues such as low-cost housing, security, environmental conservation and sustainability, alternative building techniques, cultural diversity and its impact on housing and urban design.
Gathering Souls
This essay deals with the missionary work of the Society of Jesus in today's Micronesia from the seventeenth to the twentieth century. In order to understand the Jesuits' evangelization project of gathering souls in the Oceanic archipelagos, it is important to place them into the broader context of Philippine politics.
