Research on Emotion and Learning: Contributions from Latin America

Latin America has increased its share of world scientific publications by nearly twofold during the last two decades (approximately from 2 to 4%). Despite this positive trend, the scholarly impact of scientific research produced in the region - measured in terms of citation rate - remains low. Two interrelated factors that contribute to this situation is that most research groups tend to work in isolation or in local sporadic collaboration, and results are often published in journals that are not indexed in major citation databases (e.g., SCOPUS, or Web of Science). Ultimately, part of Latin American high-quality research seems to remain hidden from the rest of the world. Over the last decad...

Anxietas et hilaritas

Anxietas et Hilaritas, es una compilación de veinte cuentos no interrelacionados que pretende ahondar en lo anímico. En cada cuento se vuelca una tormenta sobre distintas sensaciones que habitan en el interior del ser. Revela las llagas del ardoroso resentimiento, emana las fecundas lágrimas de la melancolía, enardece la ignífuga candencia del resentimiento, exacerba el empalagoso sabor de la monotonía y de la rutina. Procura quitar los disfraces de nuestros demonios y demiurgos por igual, mostrando la crudeza de las emociones y las sensibilidades, con el afán de cuestionar y poner en perspectiva dilucidaciones que en algunos casos llegan a tener problemáticas puntuales y en otros casos bordean el sinsentido. Haciendo de este modo notoria las entrañas que anudan el mundo material de los sentidos y el mundo inmaterial de lo suprasensorial.

When Olivia meets Luc, she wants to believe that he is different, but feels obligated to the father of her child to keep her distance. She pushes Luc away more and more until Luc finally sets off for a new life on his own. Just as they are ready to go their separate ways, Olivia discovers she is pregnant.

Edward Lucas White (1866-1934) was an American author and poet. Although he wrote a number of historical novels, he is best remembered for short stories based on his own nightmares. El Supremo novelizes the life of Dr. Jose Gaspar Rodriguez de Francia y Velasco, the first leader of Paraguay following its independence from Spain. He ran the country with no outside interference and little outside influence from 1814 to 1840, and was known for his "bewildering and peculiar" individuality.

A Life Together

An eminent historian’s biography of one of Mexico’s most prominent statesmen, thinkers, and writers Lucas Alamán (1792–1853) was the most prominent statesman, political economist, and historian in nineteenth-century Mexico. Alamán served as the central ministerial figure in the national government on three occasions, founded the Conservative Party in the wake of the Mexican-American War, and authored the greatest historical work on Mexico’s struggle for independence. Though Mexican historiography has painted Alamán as a reactionary, Van Young’s balanced portrait draws upon fifteen years of research to argue that Alamán was a conservative modernizer, whose north star was always economic development and political stability as the means of drawing Mexico into the North Atlantic world of advanced nation-states. Van Young illuminates Alamán’s contribution to the course of industrialization, advocacy for scientific development, and unerring faith in private property and institutions such as church and army as anchors for social stability, as well as his less commendable views, such as his disdain for popular democracy.
