Periodismo, comunicación política y política de la comunicación

Cuando apenas hay avances en la consolidación teórico-metodológica de los estudios sobre periodismo, surgen nuevas manifestaciones marcadas por dos fenómenos que -paradójicamente- sí son constantes: el dinamismo de la profesión, y las interminables crisis, lo que genera cuestionamientos que alcanzan desde el concepto mismo del periodismo, hasta las dificultades en sus condiciones de producción. Algo similar, aunque quizá menos marcado, ha sucedido con los estudios sobre comunicación: históricamente hay hechos disruptivos, marcados por la dinámica propia de vitalidad y movimiento de la disciplina, que cimbran lo que se sabe y lo que se hace en la comunicación; basta echar un vistazo a los objetos de estudio emergentes, como la Inteligencia Artificial y su papel en los procesos comunicativos.

Solanum tuberosum

Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) is the fourth-largest food crop produced in the world with approximately 370 million tonnes. This product is a staple in many diets throughout the world and the underground swollen tubers of the plant are rich sources of proteins, carbohydrates, minerals (K, Mn, Mg, Fe, Cu and P), and vitamins (C, B1, B3, B6, K, folate, pantothenic acid). Improvement of new potato cultivars resistant to biotic and abiotic factors is extremely important, as these are the main reasons for decreased potato production. Seed tuber production and tuber storage under healthy conditions after harvest are two important issues in potato cultivation. As such, this book discusses the importance of the potato plant and examines ways to increase its production and develop new cultivars resistant to stress factors via conventional and biotechnological methods.

De la violencia estructural a la violencia cotidiana

La pandemia por Covid-19 agravó la crisis de violencia tanto en México como en Jalisco. La incidencia delictiva aumentó proporcionalmente a la omisión, indiferencia e incapacidad de la autoridad para prevenir, responder y combatir los delitos que se han cometido. Esta obra analiza la insensibilidad de las autoridades estatales actuales, que se han concentrado en mantener un discurso oficial basado en la negación de lo que acontece a diario. En particular, niños, niñas y mujeres se han quedado en la indefensión total, arrinconados entre la violencia y la inacción de las autoridades. Con este libro se busca generar diálogo y debate con respecto a la invisibilización de estas violencias.

Emergent Public Health Issues in the US-Mexico Border Region

US-Mexico border region area has unique social, demographic and policy forces at work that shape the health of its residents as well as serves as a microcosm of migration health challenges facing an increasingly mobile and globalized world. This region reflects the largest migratory flow between any two nations in the world. Data from the Pew Research Center shows over the last 25 years there has never been lower than 140,000 annual immigrants from Mexico to the United States (with peaks over 700,000). This migratory route is extremely hazardous due to natural (e.g., arid and hot desert regions) and human made barriers as well as border enforcement practices tied to socio-political and geopo...

An expert perspective on 21st century education What can you learn on a cell phone? Almost anything! How does that concept fit with our traditional system of education? It doesn′t. Best-selling author and futurist Marc Prensky′s book of essays challenges educators to "reboot" and make the changes necessary to prepare students for 21st century careers. His "bottom-up" vision is based on interviews with young people and includes their ideas about what they need from teachers, schools, and education. Also featured are easy-to-do, high-impact classroom strategies that help what he calls "digital natives" acquire "digital wisdom." This thought-provoking text is organized into two sections that address: • Rethinking education • 21st century learning and technology in the classroom (including games, YouTube, and more) In addition to valuable knowledge, this compelling collection offers inspiration, new perspectives, and ideas that work. Our educational context has changed, and a new context demands new thinking. This book will broaden your mind, spark new insights regarding how and what you teach, and reshape your vision of 21st century education.

While some European nations share similar crime rates and trends, many differ widely in their approach to criminal justice. And as Europe's internal frontiers prepare to give way to a `single market', issues such as the movement of terrorists, international fraud, and drug trafficking, take on new, significant dimensions. This is the first book to address these issues and attempt a comparative criminology for Europe. The contributors cover a range of subjects including *crime prevention* women and crime*the relationship of ethnic minorities to crime and the police*corporate crime* accountability in the prison system.

Explore the most effective methods of studying school violence! School violence and safety research will move forward and make unique scientific contributions only if it develops a core literature that critically examines its measurements, methods, and data analysis techniques. Issues in School Violence Research is the first book to expose the limitations of previous research, to critically examine methodological and measurement practices, and to provide guidelines to enhance future school violence research. Early literature focused on school violence as a social problem, not as an integrated area of legitimate scientific research. It is time to move beyond the social problem era of school v...

The Teacher's Body

These highly personal essays from a range of academic settings explore the palpable moments of discomfort, disempowerment, and/or enlightenment that emerge when we discard the fiction that the teacher has no body. Visible and/or invisible, the body can transform both the teacher's experience and classroom dynamics. When students think the teacher's body is clearly marked by ethnicity, race, disability, size, gender, sexuality, illness, age, pregnancy, class, linguistic and geographic origins, or some combination of these, both the mode and the content of education can change. Other, less visible aspects of a teacher's body, such as depression or a history of sexual assault, can have an equally powerful impact on how we teach and learn. The collection anatomizes these moments of embodied pedagogy as unexpected teaching opportunities and examines their apparent impact on teacher-student educational dynamics of power, authority, desire, friendship, open-mindedness, and resistance.
