Outras formas de ser humano
Em Outras formas de ser humano, dez escritores ibero-americanos imaginam cenários de ficção científica para falar sobre um presente em mutação e um futuro incerto. Como serão nossas vidas com o desenvolvimento vertiginoso da IA, a progressiva deterioração ambiental, o crescente sentimento de solidão em um contexto de hiperconectividade, a desintegração dos vínculos e o caos emocional? Nessas histórias, os sonhos de eficiência e bem-estar prometidos pelos avanços tecnológicos parecem ser despedaçados e revelam seu lado menos luminoso. Uma IA conectada à natureza assume o controle e estabelece suas próprias prioridades. Outra, projetada para imitar Dostoiévski, cai na espi...
The Politics of Extraction
"In the face of new extraction, communities in Latin America's hydrocarbon and mining regions use participatory institutions powerfully. In some cases, communities act within the formal participatory spaces, while in others, they organized "around" or "in reaction to" the institutions, using participatory procedures as focal points for escalating conflict. Communities select their strategies in response to the participatory challenges they confront. Those challenges are associated with contestation over the boundaries that determine access to participatory institutions. Contestation over the line between subnational authority vis-à-vis central-state jurisdictions heightens communities' chal...

Included in this book are: Socialism and Man in Cuba Message to the Tricontinental: “Create two, three, many Vietnams” Speech in Algiers at the Afro-Asian solidarity conference Ernesto Che Guevara was born in Argentina and traveled through Latin America before joining the Cuban revolutionary movement that toppled the Batista dictatorship in 1959.

Corporal Punishment of Children in Theoretical Perspective
divDespite being commonplace in American households a generation ago, corporal punishment of children has been subjected to criticism and shifting attitudes in recent years. Many school districts have banned it, and many child advocates recommend that parents no longer spank or strike their children. In this book, social theorist Michael Donnelly and family violence expert Murray A. Straus tap the expertise of social science scholars and researchers who address issues of corporal punishment, a subject that is now characterized as a key issue in child welfare. The contributors discuss corporal punishment, its use, causes, and consequences, drawing on a wide array of comparative, psychological, and sociological theories. Together, they clarify the analytical issues and lay a strong foundation for future research and interdisciplinary collaboration. /DIV
