Raicilla y mezcal
El nuestro es un país rico en diversidad agavera, lo que ha llevado a que la mayoría de nuestras bebidas tradicionales se produzcan a partir de alguna de las más de 100 especies endémicas de magueyes que crecen de manera natural a lo largo y ancho del país. Ello ha supuesto también que cada región ha adoptado particularidades locales no sólo en cómo nombra a sus destilados, sino en sus recetas y procesos de producción, lo que da cuenta de una gran diversidad cultural al preservar una manufactura artesanal. Para conocer más sobre la tradición de destilados que tenemos en Jalisco, recibimos en cabina a Jorge Antonio Dueñas Peña, especialista y productor de raicilla; y a Manuel Ruelas, especializado en el mezcal. En su compañía conoceremos más sobre la historia detrás de estas bebidas, las diferencias y las similitudes en sus procesos de producción, quiénes y dónde las producen y todo lo que como consumidores debemos saber de estos líquidos espirituosos.
Anonymous
A man wakes up in someone elses body and then struggles to figure out what has happened. What happened to his former body, wife, and life? Who was the man whose body he is now in?

He discovers that others at his office receive identical notes, and panic ensues. Can he and his colleagues puzzle it out? Should they flee or can they fight back?

Upside Down
In a series of mock lesson plans and a "program of study" Galeano provides an eloquent, passionate, funny and shocking exposé of First World privileges and assumptions. From a master class in "The Impunity of Power" to a seminar on "The Sacred Car"—with tips along the way on "How to Resist Useless Vices" and a declaration of the "The Right to Rave"—he surveys a world unevenly divided between abundance and deprivation, carnival and torture, power and helplessness. We have accepted a "reality" we should reject, he writes, one where poverty kills, people are hungry, machines are more precious than humans, and children work from dark to dark. In the North, we are fed on a diet of artificial need and all made the same by things we own; the South is the galley slave enabling our greed.

Children, Spaces and Identity
How do children construct, negotiate and organize space? The study of social space in any human group is fraught with limitations, and to these we must add the further limits involved in the study of childhood. Here specialists from archaeology, history, literature, architecture, didactics, museology and anthropology build a body of theoretical and methodological approaches about how space is articulated and organized around children and how this disposition affects the creation and maintenance of social identities. Children are considered as the main actors in historic dynamics of social change, from prehistory to the present day. Notions on space, childhood and the construction of both the...
