Producción horizontal del conocimiento

Este texto ratifica que el conocimiento no pertenece a una disciplina ni a una región determinada del mundo. La Construcción Horizontal del Conocimiento se refiere al vigor que adquieren los conocimientos sociales cuando parten del diálogo disciplinar con las voces de los saberes múltiples que poseen quienes viven y superan los problemas sociales que les aquejan. La investigación que responde horizontalmente a las preguntas sociales aporta de dos maneras: produce nuevo conocimiento, y nuevas relaciones entre las personas.

Critical Interculturality and Horizontal Methodologies in Latin America

In this edifying volume Sarah Corona and Claudia Zapata extrapolate the causes for the divisions between groups in Latin American society, bringing their years of experience investigating the conditions and consequences of heterogeneity in the region. First, Corona approaches the problem of difference and heterogeneity epistemologically, asking about the possible benefits of horizontal modes of knowledge production between academics and the "social other." She demands reification for those without access to institutions who experience social ills and theorizes a trans-disciplinary dialogue to discover a horizontal construction of knowledge. Zapata evaluates and questions whether indigenous p...

  • Publisher: Gedisa

Todo productor de conocimiento vinculado a una institución ha experimentado los imperativos que a través de reglas y jerarquías encauzan la producción de conocimiento y limitan los resultados que ahí se generan.Se trata de prácticas habituales en las instituciones dedicadas a producir conocimiento: la imposición de métodos, de teorías que no explican los contextos locales, o la exclusión de voces consideradas ilegítimas para producir conocimiento. Cualquier investigador adscrito a una institución debe enfrentarse con una valoración superlativa de determinados medios de difusión científica y con el poco interés por difundir aportes que escapan el main streem. Por si fuera poco...

¿La imagen educa?

En los diferentes capítulos de este libro, se analiza el lugar que ocupan las imágenes educativas en la construcción de las identidades, las relaciones sociales, y el sentido de la experiencia de la vida contemporánea. Punto de acuerdo entre los autores de esta publicación es que las imágenes, más que percepciones de la realidad, son construcciones sociales que "enseñan" a reconocer el entorno. De esta manera, la imagen educa nuestro lugar en el mundo.

Post-Popular Cultures and Digital Capitalism in Latin America

In this book, renowned Latin American intellectuals, Pablo Alabarces and Néstor García Canclini, bring us up to date on the changes in the status and role of the popular classes in Latin American democracies over the past two decades. Building on decades-long research and experience in the field of cultural studies, the authors ask how the digitalization and economization of society are changing the reality of political participation and social inequality in Latin America and beyond, leading to new forms of economic and cultural marginalization. García Canclini focuses on the rapid digitalization of our society and economies, ruminating over the future of political participation and democ...

Wealth, Development, and Social Inequalities in Latin America

In this book, Hans-Jürgen Burchardt and Irene Lungo-Rodríguez lead a transdisciplinary team of experts to advance our understanding of wealth in Latin America. Combining conceptual discussions with empirical research, they analyze characteristics of wealth, and the implications for inequality. Three thematic sections provide a unique overarching structure to understand the economic, social, political, and cultural complexity of wealth. Questions examined include: What economic, institutional, and structural factors contribute to the excessive accumulation of wealth? What political dynamics promote the concentration of wealth and power? What type of social, political, and economic relations are generated in these contexts of extreme wealth concentration? What socio-cultural processes contribute to legitimizing and reproducing wealth? What are the local, regional, and national socio-ecological effects of these dynamics? Wealth, Development and Social Inequalities in Latin America provides thought-provoking reading for students and researchers alike who wish to look beyond the Global North for answers on the importance of studying wealth.

Romancing Yesenia

"This book considers the unexpected and mostly unexamined popularity of the Mexican film Yesenia (Alfredo B. Crevenna, 1971) in the Soviet Union. Set during the Second Franco-Mexican war, this unassuming movie melodrama was based on a successful television series, itself an adaptation of a popular women's romance graphic novel, a genre that was extremely common in mid-century Mexico. Screened in the Soviet Union in 1975, Yesenia became the highest grossing film in the history of Soviet film exhibition, unsurpassed by any movie, foreign or domestic. Based on ticket sales alone, it was seen by an astounding 91.4 million viewes in only the first year of its release. Yesenia's popularity in the ...

Software-based technologies deeply saturate our everyday lives. Consequently, they also influence the ways we see and mediate the world. In fact, the ease and flexibility software provides implies a shift in control. Digital media mediates itself, turning software into a co-author. Yet, the potentials of such a co-authorship are still largely constrained by conventions stemming from the need to run strips of celluloid through a projector. This book demonstrates how software can retrain filmmakers' visions of the world – from branching trees to the shifting contours of clouds. It does so by ethnographically studying one particular technology, the Korsakow System. The result is a methodology for interrogating established software regimes; a task increasingly in need of anthropological attention.
