Psychosocial Approaches to Peace-Building in Colombia
This edited volume summarizes the work of a research group, called Social Bonds and Cultures of Peace that accompanies and supports victims of socio-political violence in Columbia. The individual chapters focus on the ongoing violence in the Colombian context, a complex and dynamic area in which various groups (drug traffickers, national armed forces, guerrilla fighters, self-defence groups) have been engaged in organized violence for more than 60 years. Emphasis is placed on the psychological consequences of violence and various forms of psychosocial support that psychologists have been providing to the victims of violence. Central to their work is the notion of "accompanying" those who hav...
The First 100 Days of Covid-19
This book provides a novel in-depth study of the early pandemic response policy at the intersection of political economy and law. It explores: (1) whether the responses to COVID-19 were democratically accountable; (2) the ways in which new surveillance and enforcement techniques were adopted; (3) the new monetary and fiscal policies which were implemented; (4) the ways in which employed and unemployed persons were differently impacted by the new policies; and (5) how companies were economically sustained through the pandemic. A compelling look at what happens to societies when disaster strikes, this book will be of interest to legal scholars, political scientists and economists.

Comunicación y Psicología
La comunicación se pega a la piel de la psicología. La experiencia cotidiana da fe de ello, así como de su presencia en los procesos psicológicos, de su papel en la aparición de muchos de dichos procesos, en la transmisión de sus contenidos y potenciación de sus efectos. Pero, a su vez, la comunicación depende de factores psicológicos para activarse. En el binomio comunicación-psicología, es esta última la soberana. Frente a la extendida posición según la cual la psicología ocuparía un espacio dentro del amplio mundo de la comunicación, los trabajos de este volumen demuestran la idea contraria: la psicología es soberana y es la comunicación a la que corresponde ocupar un l...
