La pandemia del coronavirus ha dejado el mundo en suspenso en 2020. Nuestras vidas y rutinas se han visto trastocadas. La incertidumbre se convirtió en regla. A la gravedad de la crisis sanitaria, se suma la urgencia de afrontar los retrocesos democráticos y de derechos, la emergencia climática, la crisis ecosocial, las asimetrías globales y las profundas desigualdades. Frente al momento dramático de nuestra humanidad, los pasos que demos podrán ser decisivos. El futuro está en disputa y los escenarios posibles son múltiples. Alerta global reunió los análisis de 48 autoras y autores de 28 países y de todos los continentes para discutir las múltiples implicaciones sociopolíticas de la pandemia. En sus páginas hay una mirada global sobre la crisis actual y el mundo contemporáneo, la forma en la que se exacerban las desigualdades y se diversifican las formas de control social, pero también sobre cómo se abren nuevas solidaridades, movimientos sociales, vías para renovar el pensamiento crítico y posibilidades de otros mundos posibles.

FROM THE INTERNATIONALLY BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF WHAT I LOVED 'An astoundingly joyful read . . . a book that shines with intellectual curiosity and emotional integrity' Guardian 'By turns funny, moving and erudite, playfully reminding us of a contemporary Jane Austen' Daily Mail After Mia Fredricksen's husband of thirty years asks for a pause - so he can indulge his infatuation with a young French colleague - she cracks up (briefly), rages (deeply), then decamps to her prairie childhood home. There, gradually, she is drawn into the lives of those around her: her mother's circle of feisty widows; the young woman next door; and the diabolical teenage girls in her poetry class. By the end of the ...

Social Aggression Among Girls

While several recent popular books address the topic of girls' "meanness" to one another, this volume offers the first balanced, scholarly analysis of scientific knowledge in this area. Integrating current research on emotion regulation, gender, and peer relations, the book examines how girls are socialized to experience and express anger and aggression from infancy through adolescence. Considered are the developmental functions of such behaviors as gossip, friendship manipulation, and social exclusion; consequences for both victims and perpetrators; and approaches to intervention and prevention. Presenting innovative research models and methods, this is an accessible and much-needed synthesis for researchers, professionals, and students. Key Features: * Hot topic, garnering coverage in general media (e.g., The New York Times Magazine) * Accessibly written, with examples clarifying abstract points * Covers and integrates both physical and social aggression

Democracy in Europe

  • Publisher: Springer

This book calls for a philosophical consideration of the development, challenges and successes of the European Union. The author argues that conceptual innovation is essential if progress on the European project is to be made; new meanings, rather than financial or institutional engineering solutions, will help solve the crisis. By applying a philosophical approach to diagnosing the EU crisis, the book reconsiders the basic concepts of democracy in the context of the complex reality of the EU and the globalised world where profound social and political changes are taking place. It will be of interest to students and scholars interested in EU politics, political theory and philosophy.

Poverty Reduction for Inclusive Sustainable Growth in Developing Asia

This book provides practical policy recommendations that are useful for developing Asia and for accelerating poverty reduction plans in the rest of the world. Poverty reduction in all its forms remains one of the greatest challenges facing humanity. In developing Asia, rapid growth in countries and sub-regions such as China, India, and Southeast Asia has lifted millions out of poverty, but progress has been uneven. On the other hand, the current coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic and the global economic recession that it has caused are pushing millions of people back into poverty. Poverty reduction, inclusive growth, and sustainable development are inseparable, and poverty reduction is the prem...
