Sociología y Género
Este libro ofrece una visión general del pensamiento feminista y muestra cómo esta forma de conocimiento obliga a repensar las Ciencias Sociales, particularmente la Sociología. Habida cuenta de la variedad de temas abordados desde el feminismo, así como de la existencia, dentro de éste, de diversos enfoques, nos hemos inclinado por una obra colectiva. Cada uno de los capítulos ha sido elaborado por una o varias personas expertas en una particular esfera del saber y desde su propia perspectiva teórica, si bien, manteniendo la coherencia que inspira el conjunto de la obra. Sociología y Género comienza explicando las principales teorías feministas y las críticas metodológicas por el...
City Is Ours
Squatters and autonomous movements have been in the forefront of radical politics in Europe for nearly a half-century—from struggles against urban renewal and gentrification, to large-scale peace and environmental campaigns, to spearheading the antiausterity protests sweeping the continent. Through the compilation of the local movement histories of eight different cities—including Amsterdam, Berlin, and other famous centers of autonomous insurgence along with underdocumented cities such as Poznan and Athens—The City Is Ours paints a broad and complex picture of Europe’s squatting and autonomous movements. Each chapter focuses on one city and provides a clear chronological narrative a...

Neither Vertical Nor Horizontal
How do we organize in a world after both Occupy and the Sanders campaign? A decade ago, a wave of mass mobilisations described as "horizontal" and "leaderless" swept the planet, holding the promise of real democracy and justice for the 99%. Many saw its subsequent ebb as proof of the need to go back to what was once called "the question of organisation". For something so often described as essential, however, political organisation remains a surprisingly under-theorised field. In this book, Rodrigo Nunes proposes to remedy that lack by starting again from scratch. Redefining the terms of the problem, he rejects the confusion between organisation and any of the forms it can take, such as the ...
More-than-One Health
This edited volume examines the complex entanglements of human, animal, and environmental health. It assembles leading scholars from the humanities, social sciences, natural sciences, and medicine to explore existing One Health approaches and to envision a mode of health that is both more-than-human and also more sensitive to, and explicit about, colonial and neocolonial legacies—urging the decolonization of One Health. While acknowledging the importance of One Health, the volume at the same time critically examines its roots, highlighting the structural biases and power dynamics still at play in this global health regime. The volume is distinctive in its geographic breadth. It travels fro...
Matters of Care
To care can feel good, or it can feel bad. It can do good, it can oppress. But what is care? A moral obligation? A burden? A joy? Is it only human? In Matters of Care, María Puig de la Bellacasa presents a powerful challenge to conventional notions of care, exploring its significance as an ethical and political obligation for thinking in the more than human worlds of technoscience and naturecultures. Matters of Care contests the view that care is something only humans do, and argues for extending to non-humans the consideration of agencies and communities that make the living web of care by considering how care circulates in the natural world. The first of the book’s two parts, “Knowled...
Reconocimiento y bien común en Educación
Hoy más que nunca tenemos el compromiso y la responsabilidad de hacer efectiva una educación cuya dirección debe proyectarse hacia el logro de la inclusión, la equidad, la sororidad, la solidaridad, la igualdad de derechos, la justicia, en definitiva, hacia la consecución del bien común y en común. Pensar y reflexionar, desde una mirada crítica y repolitizadora, nos exige considerar, entre otros: El impacto que la sociedad del momento tiene en las instituciones educativas, en sus miembros, en sus actuaciones y en sus decisiones. Las determinaciones derivadas de las políticas educativas, hermanadas con el ideario neoliberal. Los procesos de enseñanza y aprendizaje que pasan a mirars...

Seven Essays on Populism
This important intervention interrogates keystone features of the dominant European theoretical landscape in the field of populism studies, advancing existing debates and introducing new avenues of thought, in conjunction with insights from the contemporary Latin American political experience and perspectives. In each essay – the title a nod to the influential socialist thinker José Carlos Mariátegui, from whom the authors draw inspiration – leading Argentine scholars Paula Biglieri and Luciana Cadahia pair key dimensions of populism with diverse themes such as modern-day feminism, militancy, and neoliberalism, in order to stimulate discussion surrounding the constitutive nature, goals...
