Courage, Resistance, and Women in Ciudad Juárez
Ciudad Juárez has recently become infamous for its murder rate, which topped 3,000 in 2010 as competing drug cartels grew increasingly violent and the military responded with violence as well. Despite the atmosphere of intimidation by troops, police, and organized criminals, women have led the way in civil society activism, spurring the Juárez Resistance and forging powerful alliances with anti-militarization activists. An in-depth examination of la Resistencia Juarense, Courage, Resistance, and Women in Ciudad Juárez draws on ethnographic research to analyze the resistance's focus on violence against women, as well as its clash with the war against drugs championed by Mexican President F...
El Fin del Mundo
In a remote desert corner of Sonora, Mexico, the site of El Fin del Mundo offers the first recorded evidence of Paleoindian interactions with gomphotheres, an extinct species related to elephants.

Issues discussed include the experiences of working in public and of working with museums and libraries, opportunities for social change, the lines between education and art, spiri...

Artificial Intelligence in Society
The artificial intelligence (AI) landscape has evolved significantly from 1950 when Alan Turing first posed the question of whether machines can think. Today, AI is transforming societies and economies. It promises to generate productivity gains, improve well-being and help address global challenges, such as climate change, resource scarcity and health crises.
Comandante Durán
La biografía definitiva de Gustavo Durán, un personaje de leyenda: amigo de Lorca, Buñuel, Hemingway, Malraux, compañero de la generación del 27, compositor, comandante en la Guerra Civil, diplomático internacional en la guerra fría y víctima del senador McCarthy. La vida de Gustavo Durán podría resumirse en las tres actividades que desempeñó -músico, militar y diplomático-, pero no se le haría justicia, pues sobre su biografía recayó el protagonismo de todo un siglo. Durán fue compositor y músico, discípulo de Falla; amigo de Lorca, Alberti y Buñuel; comprometido simpatizante de la República; intelectual reconvertido en militar por la Guerra Civil y una de las referenc...
