Esta obra es el resultado de una reflexión colectiva acerca de las ideas de diversas corrientes actuales en epistemología, cuya incidencia impacta la investigación en las ciencias sociales y humanas. Mediante el trabajo dialógico, de un grupo de profesores y profesoras, hemos emprendido la tarea de hallar puntos de encuentro entre las propuestas de diversos enfoques epistemológicos que tradicionalmente se habían negado a asumir una posición de escucha y retroalimentación recíproca. Aprovechando la metáfora wittgensteiniana de "parecidos de familia" hemos puesto en deliberación las contribuciones del pragmatismo, la fenomenología, la hermenéutica fenomenológica, el posestructuralismo, las epistemologías del sur y las epistemologías feministas, con el fin de hacer énfasis en los vasos comunicantes e ideas comunes entre estos enfoques. Estas nuevas configuraciones de la epistemología están realizando aportes significativos tanto en los fundamentos ontológicos y epistemológicos de las ciencias sociales y humanas, como en la generación de recursos metodológicos.
A lo largo de la historia, el arte ha dedicado un espacio importante a la presencia del animal, su simbolismo y la tematización de los vinculos afectivos que tienen lugar entre especies, elaboraciones que resuenan hasta nuestros días. El autor da cuenta de ese devenir, lo actualiza en el tiempo y lo aterriza en el contexto de su propia experiencia como profesor de una escuela de artes. De esta manera, el libro configura una suerte de intertexto donde toman voz la historia del arte, los estudios visuales, la filosofía, la estética, el estudio de los símbolos y la literatura. En la manera como teje sentido entre temporalidades, especies y espacios, propicia una suerte de paneo conceptual ...
This volume provides the most current research on smart cities. Specifically, it focuses on the economic development and sustainability of smart cities and examines how to transform older industrial cities into sustainable smart cities. It aims to identify the role of the following elements in the creation and management of smart cities:• Citizen participation and empowerment • Value creation mechanisms • Public administration• Quality of life and sustainability• Democracy• ICT• Private initiatives and entrepreneurship Regardless of their size, all cities are ultimately agglomerations of people and institutions. Agglomeration economies make it possible to attain minimum efficie...
REDD+ must be transformational. REDD+ requires broad institutional and governance reforms, such as tenure, decentralisation, and corruption control. These reforms will enable departures from business as usual, and involve communities and forest users in making and implementing policies that a ect them. Policies must go beyond forestry. REDD+ strategies must include policies outside the forestry sector narrowly de ned, such as agriculture and energy, and better coordinate across sectors to deal with non-forest drivers of deforestation and degradation. Performance-based payments are key, yet limited. Payments based on performance directly incentivise and compensate forest owners and users. B...
Networks, Labour and Migration among Indian Muslim Artisans provides an ethnography of life, work and migration in a North Indian Muslim-dominated woodworking industry. It traces artisanal connections within the local context, during migration within India, and to the Gulf, examining how woodworkers utilise local and transnational networks, based on identity, religiosity, and affective circulations, to access resources, support and forms of mutuality. However, the book also illustrates how liberalisation, intensifying forms of marginalisation and incorporation into global production networks have led to spatial pressures, fragmentation of artisanal labour, and forms of enclavement that persi...
Signal transduction comprises the intracellular biochemical signals which induce the appropriate cell response to an external stimulus. The players in signal transduction are diverse, from small molecules as first messengers, to proteins, receptors, transcription factors, among many others. The different signaling pathways and the crosstalk between them originates the unique signaling profile of every cell type in the human body. The cell signaling specificity depends on several aspects including protein composition, subcellular localization and complexes and gene promoters. This textbook provides a comprehensive overview of the specific signaling pathways on a variety of human tissues. This information can be of great value for health science researchers, professionals and students to understand key pathways for tissue-specific functions in the plethora of signals, signals receptors, transducers and effectors.

"Worldwide harmonisation of migration statistics is something international bodies dream of. And yet, attempts by organisations needing comparative data have not proven very successful thus far. More than just problematising the incomparability of migrati
