La terapéutica de adicciones
Entre la actitud indiferente del ciudadano de a pie y la mirada distante e impasible de una sociedad que reduce todo a un dato estadístico, los adictos se debaten a diario por encontrar su lugar en un mundo “normal” que a partes iguales añoran y, a su vez, perciben con desconfianza. Esa lucha vital y sin tregua, dinamizada por el convulso encuentro de saberes científicos y una visceralidad de dolor y frustración, constituye en últimas la terapéutica de adicciones. Esta obra presenta la historia de tres personajes que, transitando a lo largo de la urdimbre de saber-poder terapéutica, asumirán la prueba de transformar su ser en pro de redescubrir su vínculo con la vida y dar una nueva significación a su anhelo de libertad. En su desenvolvimiento, el ejercicio investigativo y la teorización confluyen para abrir la adicción, y en particular la terapéutica, a nuevas y sugestivas preguntas.
Social Sciences
Beginning with volume 41 (1979), the University of Texas Press became the publisher of the Handbook of Latin American Studies, the most comprehensive annual bibliography in the field. Compiled by the Hispanic Division of the Library of Congress and annotated by a corps of more than 130 specialists in various disciplines, the Handbook alternates from year to year between social sciences and humanities. The Handbook annotates works on Mexico, Central America, the Caribbean and the Guianas, Spanish South America, and Brazil, as well as materials covering Latin America as a whole. Most of the subsections are preceded by introductory essays that serve as biannual evaluations of the literature and research under way in specialized areas. The Handbook of Latin American Studies is the oldest continuing reference work in the field. Katherine D. McCann is acting editor for this volume. The subject categories for Volume 57 are as follows: Electronic Resources for the Social Sciences Anthropology Economics Geography Government and Politics International Relations Sociology
Collecting and Interpreting Qualitative Materials
Collecting and Interpreting Qualitative Materials, Fourth Edition is Volume III of the three-volume paperback versions of The SAGE Handbook of Qualitative Research, Fourth Edition. This portion of the handbook considers the tasks of collecting, analyzing, and interpreting empirical materials, and comprises the complete handbook′s "Part IV: Methods of Collecting and Analyzing Empirical Materials" and "Part V: The Art and Practices of Interpretation, Evaluation, and Presentation." Collecting and Interpreting Qualitative Materials, Fourth Edition introduces the researcher to basic methods of gathering, analyzing and interpreting qualitative empirical materials. Part 1 moves from narrative inquiry, to critical arts-based inquiry, to oral history, observations, visual methodologies, and autoethnographic methods. It then takes up analysis methods, including computer-assisted methodologies, focus groups, as well as strategies for analyzing talk and text. The chapters in Part II discuss evidence, interpretive adequacy, forms of representation, post-qualitative inquiry, the new information technologies and research, the politics of evidence, writing, and evaluation practices.
The SAGE Handbook of Qualitative Research
Now in its fourth edition, this handbook is an essential resource for those interested in all aspects of qualitative research, and has been extensively revised and updated to cover new topics including applied ethnography, queer theory and auto-ethnography.
Barbarism and Its Discontents
Barbarism and civilization form one of the oldest and most rigid oppositions in Western history. According to this dichotomy, barbarism functions as the negative standard through which "civilization" fosters its self-definition and superiority by labeling others "barbarians." Since the 1990s, and especially since 9/11, these terms have become increasingly popular in Western political and cultural rhetoric—a rhetoric that divides the world into forces of good and evil. This study intervenes in this recent trend and interrogates contemporary and historical uses of barbarism, arguing that barbarism also has a disruptive, insurgent potential. Boletsi recasts barbarism as a productive concept, finding that it is a common thread in works of literature, art, and theory. By dislodging barbarism from its conventional contexts, this book reclaims barbarism's edge and proposes it as a useful theoretical tool.

Applied Computer Sciences in Engineering
This volume constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 7th Workshop on Engineering Applications, WEA 2020, held in Bogota, Colombia, in October 2020. The 32 revised full papers and 12 short papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 136 submissions. The papers are organized in the following topical sections: computational intelligence; computer science; optimization; bioengineering; military applications; simulation, IoT and networks; power applications.
Art and the City
This book presents a global perspective on the political agency of arts in place. International and leading scholars and artists themselves present critical theory and practice of contemporary art as a politicised force. This book extends thinking on contemporary arts practices in the urban and political context of protest and social resilience and offers the prism of a ‘critical artscape’ in which to view the urgent interaction of arts and the urban politic.
