Aspectos fenomenológicos de la tradición filosófica
Este libro está compuesto por veinticuatro contribuciones que procuran brindar un panorama amplio de puntos de contacto entre la fenomenología y la tradición filosófica. No se trata de una historia de la filosofía desde el punto de vista fenomenológico, ni de un trabajo de búsqueda de autores “proto-fenomenológicos”. Se trata, más bien, de un ejercicio amplio en el que se integran trabajos en los que se discuten, dialogan y confrontan algunas tesis de la fenomenología con algunas de las cimas de la historia de la filosofía. Aparecen en este escenario las figuras de Parménides, Heráclito, Platón, Aristóteles, las escuelas escépticas y cirenaicas, Agustín de Hipona...
Periodismo universitario en el siglo XXI
Cuando al periodismo se le demandan nuevas miradas sobre el futuro de Colombia, los periodistas universitarios, es decir quienes ejercen el oficio en el camino hacia la obtención del título profesional, deberán aprender a cultivar el arte de la criticidad y la reflexión, para que sus notas de prensa no sean el eco de las fuentes de poder, sino el producto de un ejercicio intelectual, responsable, meditado y reflexivo en procura de un cambio social positivo. No se trata de sugerir algo extraordinario. Por el contrario, la reflexión crítica es la actitud que se espera de los periodistas, como quiera que es esa postura la que asegura que su trabajo desemboque en un insumo informativo y orientador. Lo que sucede es que, en los momentos actuales de saturación de información, de medios y de eficientes herramientas para propagar contenidos, la búsqueda de la verdad se torna más compleja.
Ser y tiempo de Heidegger, en perspectiva
Tras más de noventa años de la publicación de Ser y tiempo de Martin Heidegger, una de las obras más emblemáticas e importantes del siglo pasado, resulta un hecho sorprendente constatar su vigencia, no solo a través de los estudios e interpretaciones que continúan ofreciéndose sobre ella, sino también del amplio espectro de problemas que inauguró y que anima un número importante de discusiones filosóficas en la actualidad. La publicación de la casi totalidad de volúmenes de la Gesamtausgabe, así como de un número importante de epistolarios, ha permitido ganar un conocimiento más claro del origen y de las motivaciones de la obra, del proyecto original (mantenido hasta 1932) y...

Coastal Bottom Boundary Layers And Sediment Transport
This book is intended as a useful handbook for professionals and researchers in the areas of Physical Oceanography, Marine Geology, Coastal Geomorphology and Coastal Engineering and as a text for graduate students in these fields. With its emphasis on boundary layer flow and basic sediment transport modelling, it is meant to help fill the gap between general hydrodynamic texts and descriptive texts on marine and coastal sedimentary processes. The book commences with a review of coastal bottom boundary layer flows including the boundary layer interaction between waves and steady currents. The concept of eddy viscosity for these flows is discussed in depth because of its relation to sediment d...
Presumed Incompetent II
The courageous and inspiring personal narratives and empirical studies in Presumed Incompetent II: Race, Class, Power, and Resistance of Women in Academia name formidable obstacles and systemic biases that all women faculty—from diverse intersectional and transnational identities and from tenure track, terminal contract, and administrative positions—encounter in their higher education careers. They provide practical, specific, and insightful guidance to fight back, prevail, and thrive in challenging work environments. This new volume comes at a crucial historical moment as the United States grapples with a resurgence of white supremacy and misogyny at the forefront of our social and poli...
Energy Justice
Energy Justice: US and International Perspectives is a pioneering analysis of energy law and policy through the framework of energy justice. While climate change has triggered unprecedented investment in renewable energy, the concept of energy justice and its practical application to energy law and policy remain under-theorized. This volume breaks new ground by examining a range of energy justice regulatory challenges from the perspective of international law, US law, and foreign domestic law. The book illuminates the theory of energy justice while emphasizing practical solutions that hasten the transition from fossil fuels and address the inequities that plague energy systems.
Water Wave Mechanics For Engineers And Scientists
This book is intended as an introduction to classical water wave theory for the college senior or first year graduate student. The material is self-contained; almost all mathematical and engineering concepts are presented or derived in the text, thus making the book accessible to practicing engineers as well.The book commences with a review of fluid mechanics and basic vector concepts. The formulation and solution of the governing boundary value problem for small amplitude waves are developed and the kinematic and pressure fields for short and long waves are explored. The transformation of waves due to variations in depth and their interactions with structures are derived. Wavemaker theories...
The Cambridge Handbook of Environmental Justice and Sustainable Development
Despite the global endorsement of the Sustainable Development Goals, environmental justice struggles are growing all over the world. These struggles are not isolated injustices, but symptoms of interlocking forms of oppression that privilege the few while inflicting misery on the many and threatening ecological collapse. This handbook offers critical perspectives on the multi-dimensional, intersectional nature of environmental injustice and the cross-cutting forms of oppression that unite and divide these struggles, including gender, race, poverty, and indigeneity. The work sheds new light on the often-neglected social dimension of sustainability and its relationship to human rights and environmental justice. Using a variety of legal frameworks and case studies from around the world, this volume illustrates the importance of overcoming the fragmentation of these legal frameworks and social movements in order to develop holistic solutions that promote justice and protect the planet's ecosystems at a time of intensifying economic and ecological crisis.
Plato's Sophist
This volume reconstructs Martin Heidegger's lecture course at the University of Marburg in the winter semester of 1924-25, which was devoted to an interpretation of Plato and Aristotle. Published for the first time in German in 1992 as volume 19 of Heidegger's Collected Works, it is a major text not only because of its intrinsic importance as an interpretation of the Greek thinkers, but also because of its close, complementary relationship to Being and Time, composed in the same period. In Plato's Sophist, Heidegger approaches Plato through Aristotle, devoting the first part of the lectures to an extended commentary on Book VI of the Nichomachean Ethics. In a line-by-line interpretation of Plato's later dialogue, the Sophist, Heidegger then takes up the relation of Being and non-being, the ontological problematic that forms the essential link between Greek philosophy and Heidegger's thought.
