Los Peores
Provocativo y visceral, este libro confronta el estereotipo de los pobres movilizados como colectivo de vagos, ocupas y violentos manipulados por gerentes de la pobreza que lucran con la desesperación, sin evadir una cruda mirada introspectiva sobre los aspectos oscuros de un proceso social cuyo rumbo está en disputa. Cuenta la leyenda negra que los movimientos sociales son un colectivo de vagos, ocupas y violentos manipulados por gerentes de la pobreza. Esta prédica vernácula no solo proviene de voces que gozan de mucha influencia en la sociedad, sino también de la gente común. ¿Qué hay detrás del estereotipo más declamado de la Argentina? ¿Realmente los excluidos no trabajan? ¿...
La clase peligrosa
¿Qué significa "clase peligrosa"? ¿Quiénes la integran y por qué causas? Pero sobre todo, ¿qué poderes, sean visibles o secretos, se asocian para combatirla? La clase peligrosa es el resultado social más cruel de la economía global. La integran los habitantes de la Argentina escondida y nocturna que deambulan como zombis en los márgenes de los centros urbanos. Su épica es la de la supervivencia a través de métodos de producción y recolección que el capitalismo considera anacrónicos. En una palabra: sobran. En este libro, Juan Grabois –militante social y actor destacado en las discusiones públicas–, narra la experiencia vital de los ciudadanos "peligrosos" con la maestrí...

Nature and the Environment in Contemporary Religious Contexts
This collection of essays discusses the human relationship with, and responsibilities toward, the natural environment from the perspective of religions and the social sciences. The chapters examine a variety of conditions that have contributed to the contemporary environmental crisis, including abuse of power, economic greed, industrialization, deforestation, and unplanned waste management. They then discuss concepts from several different religious texts and traditions that promote environmental protection as a sacred moral duty for all humanity. Religious concepts such as dharma (duty toward Mother Earth), tikkun Olam (repair of the world), khalifa (people as deputies of God on earth), amanah (the universe as a trust in human hands), and paticca samuppada (dependent co-arising) are employed to argue that all the components of the biosphere are integral to the cosmos, each piece with its own value and role in the harmony of the whole. The book makes it clear that religions can become more “green” and play a helpful role in raising our ecological consciousness and supporting preservation of the environment into the future.
Blood in the Fields
"Examines the life and martyrdom of Archbishop Oscar Romero in El Salvador through the lens of agrarian reform, arguing that his advocacy for the just distribution of land drew heavily on Catholic Social Doctrine and its conviction that creation is a common gift"--
Stand Up!
Stand Up! How to Get Involved, Speak Out, and Win in a World on Fire A society that actively combats racism, treats climate change as a serious threat, and ensures that all people have a living wage and a decent life for themselves and their families is not a progressive pipe dream. Victories are being won every day, all over the country. But they didn't happen just by clicking “donate” on a website. Gordon Whitman says that fundamental change demands forming the kind of face-to-face relationships that have sustained every social movement in history. For two decades, Whitman has been working with PICO National Network to equip tens of thousands to fight racial discrimination and economic...
Lula
Lula is among the greatest political figures in Brazilian history. The only president in the country with a working-class background, combined with a party that was profoundly original in its roots, he exercised charismatic power and influence in a more lasting way than any other public figure in the republican period. Since 2011, Fernando Morais, one of Brazil's leading writers, has gained direct, frank and frequent access to Lula. To these dozens of hours of testimonies, he has added a reporter's flair and captivating prose to compose a biography that paints a picture in all its grandeur and complexity. In a narrative that makes use of flashforwards and flashbacks to maintain an electrifying pace, Morais goes from Lula's childhood to the annulment of his convictions, in 2021 - passing through the new unionism, the ABC strikes, the foundation of the PT and the first election campaign.
