Democracy 2.0
Participatory media 2.0 have shifted the terrain of public life. We are all—individually and collectively—able to produce and circulate media to a potentially limitless audience, and we are all, at minimum, arbiters of knowledge and information through the choices—or clicks—we make when online. In this new environment of two-way and multidimensional media flow, digital communication tools, platforms and spaces offer enormous potential for the cultivation, development and circulation of diverse and counter-hegemonic perspectives. It has also provoked a crisis of communication between oppositional “echo chambers.” Democracy requires a functioning, critically-engaged and literate po...
Public Security and Police Reform in the Americas
The events of September 11, 2001, combined with a pattern of increased crime and violence in the 1980s and mid-1990s in the Americas, has crystallized the need to reform government policies and police procedures to combat these threats. Public Security and Police Reform in the Americas examines the problems of security and how they are addressed in Latin America and the United States.

Desarrollo socioafectivo y convivencia escolar
La convivencia escolar, como proceso de humanización, es una meta esencial de la educación que no puede ser abarcada solo desde la normativa, ni puede reducirse al ámbito exclusivo de aula, sino que está presente en todos los espacios mediatos e inmediatos que conforman la escuela. Por ello, es útil conocer y analizar las formas de interacción que construyen la manera de “vivir juntos” que se vive en la escuela y que, a su vez, conforma una experiencia central en la formación de todos los miembros de la comunidad educativa. Tal es la propuesta el lector encontrará en este libro. De manera adicional y gracias a la profundización del análisis, se ofrece un instrumento de autodiagnóstico dirigido a las escuelas primarias. Fruto de la investigación titulada “Procesos de diagnóstico del clima escolar en escuelas de educación básica de Jalisco basados en indicadores de convivencia escolar”, auspiciada por CONACYT-FOMIX, esta obra está dirigida a profesores, directores y autoridades del sistema educativo interesados en abordar los problemas de la interrelación humana desde la perspectiva de la convivencia escolar.
