El propósito de este texto es propiciar la reflexión y la reinterpretación sustentada en torno a la pregunta acerca de los adolescentes de hoy en Colombia, y a la capacidad de la familia, el colegio, la universidad y de la sociedad en general para cumplir con su papel de sostén, de abrazo acogedor, protector y ejemplizante. Esto como punto de partida para pensar la adolescencia como un período del desarrollo valioso, en el que el joven sigue siendo tan vulnerable y frágil como en la infancia, y sin embargo se haya expuesto no solo a estímulos abrumadores, sino además sufre de soledad en su mayoría y de desamparo no pocas veces.
This book offers a useful and extensive account of Japan’s past discoveries and present interactions with Muslim states and societies across Asia. Bearing in mind the U.S.-led global meta-narrative of Islam spoken in tandem with security and threats, this book examines how this reconciles with Japan’s self-proclaimed “values-based” approach to diplomacy across Asia in the twenty-first century. The author considers Japan’s historic conceptualization and learning of Islam, and its acute needs for access to markets and energy from Muslim-majority states in Asia. He also argues that Japan securitizes Islam in a manner distinct from Western, Russian, or Chinese securitization today, but that Japan promotes itself as a model for human security and development across an Asia inclusive of Muslim states. Japan’s approach to Islam and Muslim societies today offers much from which other great powers can learn.
Transnational corporations have used their market and political power in the U.S., the European Union and Japan to expand global production on terms that are highly favorable to corporate interests. Through a detailed history of the establishment of global value chains, Ronald W. Cox examines how corporations have internationalized production by working directly with political elites to establish terms of investment and trade that facilitate working class exploitation. He also examines the political implications of the growing gap between the global rich and the working class, including the increasing illegitimacy of corporate-backed governments in the United States and the European Union. The author concludes the book with suggestions for how the global working class can fight for their own interests in the context of the rising threats of far-right extremism and neo-fascist political movements.
