Educación y ciencia en Ecuador 1830 - 1940. Entre la modernidad y la Colonialidad
El futuro y el presente obligan al país a enfrentar y discutir un viejo problema: ¿Cómo construir un nuevo modelo de desarrollo? Sin embargo, para ello hay que remitirse al pasado. Ciertamente cargamos sobre nuestras espaldas por más de dos siglos una herencia colonial, el esquema extractivista primario exportador, que por varias ocasiones hemos querido superarlo, pero no hemos podido.

Self Portrait in Green
'NDiaye is a hypnotic storyteller with an unflinching understanding of the rock-bottom reality of most people's life.' New York Times ' One of France's most exciting prose stylists.' The Guardian. Obsessed by her encounters with the mysterious green women, and haunted by the Garonne River, a nameless narrator seeks them out in La Roele, Paris, Marseille, and Ouagadougou. Each encounter reveals different aspects of the women; real or imagined, dead or alive, seductive or suicidal, driving the narrator deeper into her obsession, in this unsettling exploration of identity, memory and paranoia. Self Portrait in Green is the multi-prize winning, Marie NDiaye's brilliant subversion of the memoir. Written in diary entries, with lyrical prose and dreamlike imagery, we start with and return to the river, which mirrors the narrative by posing more questions than it answers.

Thus, Mexican Political Biographies, 1884-1934 not only is a useful historical source but also provides additional information on the family backgrounds of many contemporary figures. The work includes those figures who ...
Whose Reality Counts?
This book is a sequel to Rural development : putting the last first (AL. 1719, BRN 32006). It explores methods and approaches of participatory rural appraisal (PRA), which, because of its wide application, should, according to the author, be changed to participatory learning and action (PLA).
