El presente volumen de la colección Complexus es producto de una investigación conformada por estudios comparativos interdisciplinares realizados en Europa y Latinoamérica y cuyos objetivos son el análisis, desde diversas perspectivas, de las transformaciones en las dinámicas sociales obligadas por el surgimiento del covid–19, así como la identificación de las vulnerabilidades y las repercusiones sobre el territorio y los procesos de adaptación y resiliencia resultantes de la pandemia. Este trabajo se suma a la reflexión sobre el territorio con el propósito de discutir y enriquecer las estrategias necesarias para dar mejores respuestas a futuros casos de contingencia a escala urbano–rural.
La territorialidad latinoamericana reciente, fundamentada por la demanda de nuevas lógicas de recomposición de los territorios rurales y urbanos, y dependiente de alteraciones y cambios concretos, ha determinado la generación de nuevas perspectivas y maneras de analizar y proyectar el territorio contemporáneo. Desde una postura transdisciplinar, este segundo volumen de la colección Transiciones Territoriales comienza a estructurar un nuevo discurso que surge desde el estudio de relaciones establecidas entre la sociedad y su entorno y las prácticas que lo transforman. Por ello, es presentado en dos grandes campos de investigación: el primero aborda la relación entre diseño territoria...
De acuerdo con el historiador Rafael Díaz Díaz, este libro es un tejido de lugares, no solo porque habla de maneras de hilar territorios, sino además porque concibe, de entrada, el espacio como una red en permanente estado de imbricación, de construcción y de nominación, eso sí, atizado por la pugna, por la contravención, en un juego de poderes y contrapoderes, que transitan desde “la ciudad experta” hasta los rizomas de la territorialidad. En este escenario, se vislumbra un esfuerzo provechoso de interdisciplinariedad que, partiendo de la arquitectura, se articula con los estudios culturales, además de otros intersticios disciplinares. Esto permitió poner en cuestión las distintas formas de leer y percibir el territorio en tanto contenedor de poderes, contrapoderes, conocimientos expertos y saberes vitales que son producidos, apropiados y transmitidos en el marco de la relación entre las comunidades y los hábitats.
Food safety awareness is at an all time high, new and emerging threats to the food supply are being recognized, and consumers are eating more and more meals prepared outside of the home. Accordingly, retail and foodservice establishments, as well as food producers at all levels of the food production chain, have a growing responsibility to ensure that proper food safety and sanitation practices are followed, thereby, safeguarding the health of their guests and customers. Achieving food safety success in this changing environment requires going beyond traditional training, testing, and inspectional approaches to managing risks. It requires a better understanding of organizational culture and ...
Lesser Feasts and Fasts had not been updated since 2006. This updated edition, adopted at the 79th General Convention (resolution A065), fills that need. Biographies and collects associated with those included within the volume have been updated; a deliberate effort has been made to more closely balance the men and women represented within its pages.
The average physician and even cancer care-givers are not knowledgeable about the effects of cancer treatment on sex and reproductive life. They are even less aware of the options available for treatment of such patients. Cancer and Sexual Health fills a great need for a reference work devoted to the link between cancer and human sexuality. The volume is designed to give a comprehensive and state-of-the-art review of the sexual and reproductive consequences of cancer diagnosis and treatment. It will prove an invaluable resource for those clinicians caring for cancer patients as well as acting as a reference text for the sexual medicine clinician who may not see a large number of cancer patients.

'A groundbreaking work . . . Federici has become a crucial figure for . . . a new generation of feminists' Rachel Kushner, author of The Mars Room A cult classic since its publication in the early years of this century, Caliban and the Witch is Silvia Federici's history of the body in the transition to capitalism. Moving from the peasant revolts of the late Middle Ages through the European witch-hunts, the rise of scientific rationalism and the colonisation of the Americas, it gives a panoramic account of the often horrific violence with which the unruly human material of pre-capitalist societies was transformed into a set of predictable and controllable mechanisms. It Is a study of indigenous traditions crushed, of the enclosure of women's reproductive powers within the nuclear family, and of how our modern world was forged in blood. 'Rewarding . . . allows us to better understand the intimate relationship between modern patriarchy, the rise of the nation state and the transition from feudalism to capitalism' Guardian
