Identidad... ¿latinoamericana?
¿Existe algo que pueda llamarse “Identidad latinoamericana”? La pregunta no es nueva, no viene a ser algo que pueda causar mucha extrañeza. Ya son cientos quienes se han hecho la interrogante y no son menos quienes la han tratado de responder. Entonces en qué puede ser un aporte gravitar nuevamente sobre la tan repetitiva pregunta. La identidad es algo que nos distingue, es algo que permite decir "Nosotros” y “Ellos”. Nosotros somos un conjunto uniforme que es afecto a ser categorizado comoente distintivamente reconocible. ¿Es acaso posible concebir esta apreciación dentro de los límites de Nuestra América? Creemos que no. Sin embargo no podemos decir que rotundamente es imposible. Creemos que Nuestra América es un ente inmensamente rico. Poderoso en recursos, en sustentabilidad, en la posibilidad que proporciona a cada uno de sus habitantes. Creemos que existen muchas cosas que nos definen y pueden considerarse como rasgo distintivo de nuestra identidad. Latinoamérica por ende sí puede presentar una identidad dentro de su inmensa complejidad.
Posibilidad, Crítica y Reflexión
El pasado 24 y 25 de noviembre la Biblioteca Vasconcelos, en la Ciudad de México, cobijó el 1er. Coloquio de Mujeres Filósofas. Fuimos testigos del potencial de las mujeres organizadas, ávidas por ser escuchadas y compartir sus saberes y conocimientos. Conformaron vínculos entre ellas para realizar nuevos proyectos juntas, para arder como volcanes e instaurar un nuevo mundo en el que sus voces jamás volverán a ser relegadas a lo privado, ni silenciadas por las lógicas patriarcales que deciden quiénes son dignos de mantenerse presentes a lo largo de la Historia y a quiénes es mejor olvidar poco a poco. Es necesario agradecer y reconocer el espléndido trabajo de Itzel Cabrera y Alejandra Quiroz por pertenecer al comité organizador, por escucharme, creer y comprometerse con este proyecto. Su colaboración permitió que este evento resplandeciera junto con todas las ponentes y asistentes. Todas fuimos piezas clave.
Funcional y Fáctica
Funcional y Fáctica es un libro en el cual ponemos interés en discutir qué es lo que ocurre con la forma de hacer escuela impuesta desde los gobiernos. En este libro no se discute las formas que tenemos como pueblo para organizarnos, sino que vemos cómo la educación formal se ha convertido en una fuente de opresión y adoctrinamiento que sólo busca intereses económicos.
The Zapatista Movement and Mexico's Democratic Transition
Transitions from authoritarian to democratic governments can provide ripe scenarios for the emergence of new, insurgent political actors and causes. During peaceful transitions, such movements may become influential political players and gain representation for previously neglected interests and sectors of the population. But for this to happen, insurgent social movements need opportunities for mobilization, success, and survival. This book looks at Mexico'sZapatista movement, and why the movement was able to mobilize sympathy and support for the indigenous agenda inside and outside of the country, yet failed to achieve their goals vis-à-vis the Mexican state.

Sovereign Debt Diplomacies
This is an open access title available under the terms of a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 International licence. It is free to read at Oxford Scholarship Online and offered as a free PDF download from OUP and selected open access locations. Sovereign Debt Diplomacies aims to revisit the meaning of sovereign debt in relation to colonial history and postcolonial developments. It offers three main contributions. The first contribution is historical. The volume historicises a research field that has so far focused primarily on the post-1980 years. A focus on colonial debt from the 19th century building of colonial empires to the decolonisation era in the 1960s-70s fills an important gap in recent debt histori...
A Fighting Chance
Seventeen-year-old Miguel Angel spends every minute after school at the Packing Shed, working out with the Alisal Boxing Club.

2G: Ensamble Studio
Ensamble Studio is a cross-functional team founded in 2000, led by architects Anto?n Garci?a-Abril and De?bora Mesa. Balancing imagination and reality, art and science, their work innovates typologies, technologies and methodologies to address issues as diverse as the construction of the landscape or the prefabrication of the house. From their early works: SGAE Headquarters, Hemeroscopium House or The Truffle in Spain, to their most recent: Ensamble Fa?brica in Madrid and Ca'n Terra in Menorca, Spain, every project makes space for experimentation aiming to advance their field. Currently, through their start-up WoHo, they are invested in increasing the quality of architecture while making it more affordable by integrating offsite technologies. Their new research and fabrication facility in Madrid, Ensamble Fa?brica, has been built to support this endeavour. Together they are committed to sharing ideas and cultivating synergies between professional and academic worlds through teaching lecturing and research: she is Ventulett Chair in Architectural Design at Georgia Tech and he is a Professor at MIT, where they co-founded the POPlab - Prototypes of Prefabrication Laboratory- in 2012.
