Nos encontramos frente a la novena entrega que ofrece nuestra revista y no podemos dejar de preguntarnos acerca de un factor determinante en las sociedades actuales: el espacio de la Violencia. Nuestra llamada Revista de Humanidades, popularizada como Humanidades Populares, se pregunta sobre los alcances que posee la utilización de esta dimensión que ataca al Ser en todos los aspectos. Como propuesta exhortamos a los autores a referencias una de las dimensiones que alcanza la violencia, un caso por excelencia: el Género. La construcción cultural del Género nos ha acompañado inequívocamente como evidencia de la occidentalización de nuestras sociedades. Esta “occidentalización” pr...
La presente colección funciona como una brújula que articula el conjunto de los debates llevados a cabo por FAIA, en el contexto de sus permanentes esquemas de diálogo con la comunidad internacional de pensadores con la que se integra. Además, pretende ofrecer al lector una respuesta didáctico-pedagógica, esto es, un insumo para la enseñanza y el aprendizaje de un nuevo pensamiento, crítico, liberacionista y de-colonial: un comienzo otro de la filosofía de la liberación, desde, en y con ella. En este Tomo I, se presentan métodos para una filosofía intercultural de la liberación comprendida, aquí, como praxis política descolonial para la emancipación de los pueblos; en rigor, se trata de un sentipensar actuante que pone en palabra las formas de resistencia, lucha y proyectos políticos liberacionistas, desde una perspectiva dialógico-participativa y crítica de los procesos de opresión, exclusión y expulsión.
One of the most extraordinary books ever written about chess and chessplayers, this authoritative study goes well beyond a lucid explanation of how todays chessmasters and tournament players are rated. Twenty years' research and practice produce a wealth of thought-provoking and hitherto unpublished material on the nature and development of high-level talent: Just what constitutes an "exceptional performance" at the chessboard? Can you really profit from chess lessons? What is the lifetime pattern of Grandmaster development? Where are the masters born? Does your child have master potential? The step-by-step rating system exposition should enable any reader to become an expert on it. For some...

Higher education in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) has expanded dramatically in the new millennium, yet enrollment in short-cycle programs (SCPs) is still relatively low. Shorter and more practical than bachelor’s programs, SCPs can form skilled human capital fast. The economic crisis created by the COVID-19 pandemic has accentuated underlying trends, such as automation, the use of electronic platforms, and the need for lifelong learning. Addressing these demands requires the urgent upskilling and reskilling of the population—a task for which SCPs are uniquely suited. The Fast Track to New Skills: Short-Cycle Higher Education Programs in Latin America and the Caribbean explores th...
This book contains the summaries of the "Innovation in Pharmacy: Advances and Perspectives" that took place in Salamanca (Spain) in September 2018. The early science of chemistry and microbiology were the source of most drugs until the revolution of genetic engineering in the mid 1970s. Then biotechnology made available novel protein agents such as interferons, blood factors and monoclonal antibodies that have changed the modern pharmacy. Over the past year, a new pharmacy of oligonucleotides has emerged from the science of gene expression such as RNA splicing and RNA interference. The ability to design therapeutic agents from genomic sequences will transform treatment for many diseases. The...
