La educación en peligro
Esta obra pretende manifestar la preocupación por las potenciales consecuencias negativas del proyecto de nuevos planes y programas de estudio (PPE) para la educación básica que la Secretaría de Educación Pública (SEP) dio a conocer recientemente. Los maestros, en su mayoría, ignoran los contenidos y las implicaciones de esta nueva reforma y experimentan un sentimiento de angustia por las nuevas cargas de trabajo que este cambio traerá consigo. La SEP no solicita una reforma curricular convencional —como fueron las de 2011 y 2017—, y las autoridades plantean un reordenamiento completo de la actividad educativa sin un diagnóstico claro de los problemas relevantes y sus causas profundas. No hay antecedentes históricos, en México ni en el extranjero, de una educación comunitaria como la que se proyecta. Por ende, proponemos la fuerza social, que permitirá abrir un horizonte de esperanza para que los mexicanos construyamos una sociedad democrática en un estado de derecho, de justicia social y paz.
Revista etcétera. Delfina: Robar para hacer historia
En la próxima elección a la gubernatura del Estado de México se juega demasiado. No sólo es una elección local que definirá el futuro de la propia entidad. También es por razones conocidas y novedosas una elección nacional. Conocidas, porque es el estado más poblado, indisociable de la gran metrópolis, con el padrón electoral más grande, que le permite fincar al ganador un bastión determinante para la próxima elección presidencial. Novedosas, porque en esta elección acaso el PRI se juega su existencia misma, y la alianza opositora la suya. Si el PRI pierde, la coalición de la que es parte posiblemente también se disuelva como la conocemos. En esta elección se juega la sobr...
Converso Non-Conformism in Early Modern Spain
This book examines the effects of Jewish conversions to Christianity in late medieval Spanish society. Ingram focuses on these converts and their descendants (known as conversos) not as Judaizers, but as Christian humanists, mystics and evangelists, who attempt to create a new society based on quietist religious practice, merit, and toleration. His narrative takes the reader on a journey from the late fourteenth-century conversions and the first blood purity laws (designed to marginalize conversos), through the early sixteenth-century Erasmian and radical mystical movements, to a Counter-Reformation environment in which conversos become the advocates for pacifism and concordance. His account ends at the court of Philip IV, where growing intolerance towards Madrid’s converso courtiers is subtly attacked by Spain’s greatest painter, Diego Velázquez, in his work, Los Borrachos. Finally, Ingram examines the historiography of early modern Spain, in which he argues the converso reform phenomenon continues to be underexplored.
Self Portrait in Green
'NDiaye is a hypnotic storyteller with an unflinching understanding of the rock-bottom reality of most people's life.' New York Times ' One of France's most exciting prose stylists.' The Guardian. Obsessed by her encounters with the mysterious green women, and haunted by the Garonne River, a nameless narrator seeks them out in La Roele, Paris, Marseille, and Ouagadougou. Each encounter reveals different aspects of the women; real or imagined, dead or alive, seductive or suicidal, driving the narrator deeper into her obsession, in this unsettling exploration of identity, memory and paranoia. Self Portrait in Green is the multi-prize winning, Marie NDiaye's brilliant subversion of the memoir. Written in diary entries, with lyrical prose and dreamlike imagery, we start with and return to the river, which mirrors the narrative by posing more questions than it answers.
About Trees
About Trees considers our relationship with language, landscape, perception, and memory in the Anthropocene. The book includes texts and artwork by a stellar line up of contributors including Jorge Luis Borges, Andrea Bowers, Ursula K. Le Guin, Ada Lovelace and dozens of others. Holten was artist in residence at Buro BDP. While working on the book she created an alphabet and used it to make a new typeface called Trees. She also made a series of limited edition offset prints based on her Tree Drawings.
The Mosquito Bite Author
Originally published in 2011, The Mosquito Bite Author is the seventh novel by the acclaimed Turkish author Barış Bıçakçı. It follows the daily life of an aspiring novelist, Cemil, in the months after he submits his manuscript to a publisher in Istanbul. Living in an unremarkable apartment complex in the outskirts of Ankara, Cemil spends his days going on walks, cooking for his wife, repairing leaks in his neighbor’s bathroom, and having elaborate imaginary conversations in his head with his potential editor about the meaning of life and art. Uncertain of whether his manuscript will be accepted, Cemil wavers between thoughtful meditations on the origin of the universe and the trajectory of political literature in Turkey, panic over his own worth as a writer, and incredulity toward the objects that make up his quiet world in the Ankara suburbs.

Home Reading Service
In this poignant novel, a man guilty of a minor offense finds purpose unexpectedly by way of his punishment—reading to others. After an accident—or “the misfortune,” as his cancer-ridden father’s caretaker, Celeste, calls it—Eduardo is sentenced to a year of community service reading to the elderly and disabled. Stripped of his driver’s license and feeling impotent as he nears thirty-five, he leads a dull, lonely life, chatting occasionally with the waitresses of a local restaurant or walking the streets of Cuernavaca. Once a quiet town known for its lush gardens and swimming pools, the “City of Eternal Spring” is now plagued by robberies, kidnappings, and the other myriad ...
