Violence and Resistance, Art and Politics in Colombia
This book explores the historical and contemporary connections between art and politics in Colombia. These relations are unique because of the ways in which they are saturated by violence, as the country has passed through conquest, struggles for Independence, fighting between political factions, civil war, paramilitaries, narco-traffickers and state violence. This seemingly unending stream of violence gives art in Colombia one of its main themes. The lavishly illustrated essays, written by Colombian authors, examine Colombian visual arts, music, theatre, literature, cinema, indigenous arts, popular culture, militant publications and recent protest movements, analysing them with tools drawn from contemporary philosophy and theory. Approaches include decolonisation theory, cosmopolitics, anthropology after the ontological turn, Colombian philosophy, feminism, and French theory. The essays all offer powerful understandings of how art has not only been complicit in perpetuating political violence in Colombia, but also how it has been a vital form of analysis and resistance.

Oxidative Stress and Chronic Degenerative Diseases
This work responds to the need to find, in a sole document, the affect of oxidative stress at different levels, as well as treatment with antioxidants to revert and diminish the damage. Oxidative Stress and Chronic Degenerative Diseases - a Role for Antioxidants is written for health professionals by researchers at diverse educative institutions (Mexico, Brazil, USA, Spain, Australia, and Slovenia).

Política de los cuerpos
¿Por qué personas precarizadas optan, una y otra vez, por visiones políticas que agudizan su marginación? ¿Por qué terminan culpabilizando de sus circunstancias a sujetos vulnerables como ellos, en lugar de reconocer las condiciones sociales que los afectan? Llevando a cabo una interpretación original del pensamiento de Jacques Rancière, Política de los cuerpos construye otro horizonte de reflexión: la falta de agencia crítica hoy tiene que ver, más que con el engaño y la manipulación, con una pérdida del deseo de transformación, propiciada por algunas dinámicas del consensualismo contemporáneo. Este libro ofrece un análisis de ciertas condiciones estético-políticas y socio-económicas del presente histórico, deteniéndose en sus dimensiones corporales y afectivas. tiende, así, a las transformaciones corporales que las prácticas emancipatorias producen, a la manera en que afectan configuraciones de poder, y a cómo pueden irradiarse en y alterar el mundo.
