Nos rastros de Foucault
A obra objetiva tensionar os conceitos-ferramentas de Michel Foucault a partir de inquietações que visam esquadrinhar as formações discursivas, penetrar nas relações de poder e conduzir, regular e produzir subjetividades. Destarte, os sujeitos, as instituições e as práticas compõem o escopo analítico das discussões a serem travadas nesta obra.
Enseñanza, función del educador
¿Podemos hablar de educación y de enseñanza sin hablar de aprendizaje? ¿Los malos resultados en una evaluación de un alumno son la evidencia de que no se aprendió y, peor aún, de que un docente no le enseñó bien o idóneamente? ¿Existe una relación causal clara y transparente entre enseñar y aprender? ¿Es ya el aprender por el aprender algo legítimo y justificado desde el punto de vista pedagógico, educativo y formativo o es válido discutir qué se aprende en la escuela y para qué se aprende? Preguntas como las anteriores, tratadas con una visión crítica, son las que abordan los autores de este libro. Ellas tienen que ver con lo que el filósofo de la educación, Gert Biesta, ha denominado el “paradigma de la aprendificación”.
Technology, Human Performance, and Nuclear Facilities
This book statistically confirms that complexity and changing technologies that affect the way operators interact within the systems of the nuclear facili-ties exacerbate the severity of incidents caused by human error and details the application of the systems engineering process to reduce human error given industries’ rapidly advancing technology. Technology, Human Performance, and Nuclear Facilities: A Systems Engineering Approach to Reduce Human Error provides a basic understand-ing of Human Error/ P erformance and its relation to industrial operations and advancing technologies incorporated into facilities. The book discusses the context surrounding the complexity of changing technolo...
Cálcelo sin compromiso. El arte de la zapatería en el barrio Restrepo en Bogotá
¡Cálcelo, sin compromiso! es un libro sobre la producción de calzado en el Restrepo —como se conoce popularmente al barrio Carlos E. Restrepo—, en tanto práctica que ha informado los códigos culturales desde los cuales se habita el territorio local. Se trata de una publicación que hace parte de los títulos dedicados a barrios de la capital, senda que se inició a partir de La Magdalena: consolidación urbana de una antigua quinta (2017) y De la Divina Providencia al esplendor del Jorge Eliécer de Gaitán (2020). A diferencia de las publicaciones sobre los barrios La Magdalena y Jorge Eliécer Gaitán, centradas en la configuración urbana y la reconstrucción histórica de los lu...
Drug Trafficking, Organized Crime, and Violence in the Americas Today
"An extensive overview of the drug trade in the Americas and its impact on politics, economics, and society throughout the region. . . . Highly recommended."--Choice "A first-rate update on the state of the long-fought hemispheric 'war on drugs.' It is particularly timely, as the perception that the war is lost and needs to be changed has never been stronger in Latin and North America."--Paul Gootenberg, author of Andean Cocaine: The Making of a Global Drug "A must-read volume for policy makers, concerned citizens, and students alike in the current search for new approaches to forty-year-old policies largely considered to have failed."--David Scott Palmer, coauthor of Power, Institutions, an...
Bioactive Foods and Extracts
Though there is considerable historical and anecdotal record for the use and efficacy of the cancer preventative properties of vegetables, fruits, and herbs, modern healthcare professionals require scientific evidence and verifiable results to make defensible decisions on the benefits, risks, and value of botanicals and their extracts in the preven
Foucault & Education
This book explores the works of Michel Foucault and their relevance for educational theory and practice. Gail McNicol Jardine investigates Foucault's early examinations of the transformation of systems of knowledge as societies change, his in-depth, critical analyses of Knowledge-Power, and his increasingly more explicit examination of the relationship of the Self to acts of Knowledge-Power. Specific themes that are explored from Foucault's work are archeology, genealogy, disciplinary knowledge and power, normality, the gaze, panopticism, the examination, critique and resistance. This primer contains ample references that allow the reader to examine Foucault's own use of these important analytic concepts and tools. This book will be useful in undergraduate and graduate courses in education, critical theory, educational theory, critical pedagogy, philosophy, psychology, and sociology.
Pathogenic Yeasts
Mycological studies of yeasts are entering a new phase, with the sequencing of multiple fungal genomes informing our understanding of their ability to cause disease and interact with the host. At the same time, the ongoing use of traditional methods in many clinical mycology laboratories continues to provide information for the diagnosis and treatment of patients. This volume reviews various aspects of pathogenic yeasts and what is known about their molecular and cellular biology and virulence, in addition to looking at clinical and laboratory findings. As each chapter is written by a leading expert in the field, this book summarizes in one volume much of the latest research on several pathogenic yeasts, including Candida, Cryptococcus, Malassezia and yeasts of emerging importance. The importance of laboratory diagnosis, antifungal susceptibility testing, antifungal resistance and yeast diseases in animals are reviewed.
Migration and Health
A new introduction to a timeless dynamic: how the movement of humans affects health everywhere. International migrants compose more than three percent of the world’s population, and internal migrants—those migrating within countries—are more than triple that number. Population migration has long been, and remains today, one of the central demographic shifts shaping the world around us. The world’s history—and its health—is shaped and colored by stories of migration patterns, the policies and political events that drive these movements, and narratives of individual migrants. Migration and Health offers the most expansive framework to date for understanding and reckoning with human migration’s implications for public health and its determinants. It interrogates this complex relationship by considering not only the welfare of migrants, but also that of the source, destination, and ensuing-generation populations. The result is an elevated, interdisciplinary resource for understanding what is known—and the considerable territory of what is not known—at an intersection that promises to grow in importance and influence as the century unfolds.
