Hoy en día, cuando las más profundas y variadas inequidades se revelan de forma evidente, es necesario cuestionar una de las ideas más extendidas sobre el modo de administrarlas y justificarlas. Este libro propone analizar diferentes promesas y paradojas del mérito y de la meritocracia, articulando una perspectiva psicosocial y crítica que pone en diálogo a la psicología con las ciencias de la sociedad, la educación y el trabajo. La obra se organiza en tres partes, las cuales abordan las relaciones entre la meritocracia y las desigualdades sociales, y diferentes entrecruces del mérito con la educación y el trabajo.
“Las generaciones y las épocas que ellas atraviesan son de mucha importancia e influyen en la igualdad o en la desigualdad” y es importante que “cuando miremos hacia atrás en la hora del atardecer veamos que hemos cumplido la tarea: que dejamos un mundo mejor que el que recibimos. Que hemos unido nuestra juventud y nuestra edad madura al trabajo y a las esperanzas de las que ya fueron y a la de los que vendrán”. En Generaciones, el autor nos invita a creer que “la antorcha de la historia humana continuará pasando de generación en generación” con el objetivo de mejorarla y continuar en la búsqueda de valores de nuestra sociedad. “Cuando se trata de promover cambios profundos es necesario mirar también hacia atrás y, por cierto, hacia al futuro, desde lo que se está viviendo”.
Stone is one of the oldest building materials, and its conservation ranks as one of the most challenging in the field. The use of alkoxysilanes in the conservation of stone can be traced as far back as 1861, when A.

The fandango, emerging in the early-eighteenth century Black Atlantic as a dance and music craze across Spain and the Americas, came to comprise genres as diverse as Mexican son jarocho, the salon and concert fandangos of Mozart and Scarlatti, and the Andalusian fandangos central to flamenco. From the celebrations of humble folk to the theaters of the European elite, with boisterous castanets, strumming strings, flirtatious sensuality, and dexterous footwork, the fandango became a conduit for the syncretism of music, dance, and people of diverse Spanish, Afro-Latin, Gitano, and even Amerindian origins. Once a symbol of Spanish Empire, it came to signify freedom of movement and of expression, given powerful new voice in the twenty-first century by Mexican immigrant communities. What is the full array of the fandango? The superb essays gathered in this collection lay the foundational stone for further exploration.
This book contains the summaries of the "Innovation in Pharmacy: Advances and Perspectives" that took place in Salamanca (Spain) in September 2018.

The ability to design therapeutic agents from genomic sequences will transform treatment for many diseases. The...
