Estamos ante un libro, de autoría compartida, centrado en cómo investigar en redes sociales en el ámbito educativo. A lo largo de sus cinco capítulos, se analiza la manera de investigar en las redes sociales y cuáles son las principales variables que conviene tener en cuenta: de qué modo se crean las redes sociales, cómo nos afectan y para qué sirven en un contexto de investigación educativa. A través de dos ejemplos de investigaciones en el contexto de las redes sociales basadas en el análisis de los sentimientos y del discurso mantenido en Twitter, se comprenderán con más claridad las implicaciones que conlleva este tipo de investigaciones. Además, se explica cómo se han de conformar los grupos de trabajo de cara a fomentar la interacción entre los actores que participan en un entorno de aprendizaje digital y universitario. Esta obra, en definitiva, pretende ser una herramienta de apoyo al profesorado y al alumnado interesados en investigar de qué forma las conexiones influyen en el aprendizaje, atendiendo a los sentimientos, discursos y formas de agrupación e interacción.

Roving vigilantes, fear-mongering politicians, hysterical pundits, and the looming shadow of a seven hundred-mile-long fence: the US–Mexican border is one of the most complex and dynamic areas on the planet today. Hyperborder provides the most nuanced portrait yet of this dynamic region. Author Fernando Romero presents a multidisciplinary perspective informed by interviews with numerous academics, researchers, and organizations. Provocatively designed in the style of other kinetic large-scale studies like Rem Koolhaas's Content and Bruce Mau’s Massive Change, Hyperborder is an exhaustively researched report from the front lines of the border debate.
Conflicts over the rights of self-defined population groups to determine their own destiny within the boundaries of existing states are among the most violent forms of inter-communal conflict.

The contributors assess the current state of the theory and practice of institutional design for the settlement of self-determination conflicts, and also compare and contrast detailed case studies on autonomous regimes in the former Yugoslavia, the Crimea, Åland, Northern Ireland, Latin America, Indonesia and Vietnam.
